“Okay, we can take some time and we can revisit the topic of you assaulting our neighbor with a shovel a little bit later.”

This worker got a verbal warning for taking a bathroom break which then led to being served a disciplinary action form for wasting time. They've taken to the popular r/antiwork subreddit with a photo of the post to share their experience and seek advice. Amidst the usual r/antiwork comment menagerie a user claiming to be an employment lawyer, u/Older_Wiser_Maybe responded. “Employment lawyer here: First, Only one of the instances referenced in the disciplinary action has to do with a bathroom b…

Selling something on Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, or any other free equivalent platform is incredibly easy… but dealing with people is incredibly hard.

How can you mess up THAT badly??

Why can't she just buy it for him as a gift… It…

Code Red is supposed to be a warning NOT to get in the water

Toxic work environments don't even deserve a two weeks notice.

It wasn't the bugs that did it for him, it was the toxic management and Karen customers.

An employee closed with their manager, who said nothing out of the ordinary to them but sent an email 20 minutes later telling them that they were being let go from their position.

Reddit might have been wrong on this one.

Why only hers though?
