Manager shorts pay and tries to get employee to quit, instead unknowingly saves him $18k and employed for 6 years: ‘I don’t steal from employers, unless they steal from me first.’

Oh if only Reddit were around during the days of Johnny Cash. There would be even MORE work-related drama stories on there that are probably even MORE unbelievable. But, then again, would they be able to get away with as much as they did back then if the internet existed? Probably not. Definitely not.

So he was stoked, but it was obvious the boss thought he was just going to quit, or it would be easy to get him to want to quit, after his job was done before ever having to cash out on those paid days off. Oh, boy, was he wrong. He messed with the wrong employee…
