Boss gets called out for repeatedly firing employees once they get married, HR intervenes: ‘I got quiet fired two days before my wedding’

Outdated workplace dynamics are unfortunately still alive and well today. We would all like to think that we have evolved from the days of bosses firing employees without justified cause, but the truth of the matter is that while some progress has been made, we haven't evolved that much yet.

Here, we have a female employee in her twenties who began to notice that the other female coworkers on her team were leaving the company one by one as soon as there were big life events going on in their personal lives, such as engagements, weddings, and pregnancies. Their boss, who is a woman, seemed to be behind this trend of firing or pushing out her female employees. Once this kind of behavior becomes a pattern backed up by facts, it's pretty hard to ignore. Keep scrolling below to see what the author of this story did when she called out her boss for this upsetting trend!
