Won't pay me for my cancelled event? Pay me to go instead!

Company won't compensate employee for missed $1000 event, pays $5000 for round trip international flight instead

Update: 'They threatened to take further legal action': Employee fired and asked to repay $1,100 to employer for unsubstantiated wage theft

There are petty employers — then there are employers who fire you for bogus claims of wage theft and demand repayment of said wages. The crazy part is the employer doesn't seem to have (or isn't willing to offer) any proof to back their claims.
