Great story. I've had to work under a curmudgeon myself and it was gratifying to finally be recognised and compensated ($30,000 bonus) for my work. Also, my clients were in 4 different time zones.

[@mariehedberg7863]

Is this story from 1950? This will never happened if you have a membership in a union! Is there more places than US there someone can tell you to leave your work instantly? You should have 1 month och 3 month notice! Thought it only could happens in old american movies! At an age of 30, you should know who can fire you, and who can t at your job! About too much work and overtime. You are not aloud to work like this, as a member of a union, and the company had to pay hard fee, if they demand you to. NO ONE should ever be bullied at their work. If you do, you take it to your HR, or your union. Always make good friends inside work or at outside. Oh, sweet young working girls and boys, I wish I can give you lessons thru your lifes, but you had to learn the hard way as we all do! But listen to your parents, and talk about things with them. They have been there! Reflections from a retired old woman without own children.😊

It was a hot humid sweaty day in Chicago. Construction workers were busy working hard in the heat. About 10 storys up in a near by hi rise the office workers decided to make a large sign the size of the whole window. Its 70 degrees in here" as they lasughed at theworkers outside. Dujrring there lunch break, the construction workers made a large sign ,it said "Its35 dollars an hr out here time and a half for overtime! the office workers were put in there place!

This is me working at COLAS South Africa. I was the only one that could do my work and I was an excellent employee extremely neat on my work and worked with perfection and always received a 14th chq every year. So I could never get long leave with my family. Loved the people but my HOD was a nervous wreck always and always needed me by her side. When I left they hired an additional 4 people for the department as the work was to much. So I did the work of 4 people.

I had the same Experience, I volunteered by handing in my notice.Then manager came to my home, six weeks after I left, begging me to go back to work with him. I refused, I told him that I had already found another job.. Only three employees replaced me. A little later I heard that he had lost his job.I ended up working for 18 years ended up as a manager.😊

[@captainz9]

I've had two new/incoming bosses in my career who obviously came in with an agenda and didn't even bother to get to know what people's skills were and their value, both eventually got burned by the fact they essentially drove me out the door, ignoring all my attempts to advise/improve things. I got some good laughs after the fact hearing how exactly what I knew would happen, and tried to warn them/fix, happened eventually.

[@kingbertie]

This one should have started with 'Once upon a time.... '

[@thomasaitken7495]

Unfortunately, the character Michael is too common in the work place. They rarely get caught, and when caught usually get promoted to some higher position where they deal with less workers, but make bigger decisions.

[@carltaylor5251]

Why should Brandon feel guilty it wasn't his incompetence it was Michael's.

[@Excanda]

Some people can't push away that it had been their responsibility before and therefor accept blame that isn't there. This Michael was clearly jealous of the good work Brandon was doing and thought it was easy as Brandon always finished his work on time, but clearly never fully realized what the amount of overtime Brandon put in it. Some people are blind like that. This Michael was an idiot and lucky got fired for it as the boss was a smart one. This is sadly not always the case in big companies.

[@waynefee1561]

Because of social programming. You the worker are always wrong never the Corporation.Oh look our Corp has gone belly up, sorry workers your fault no severance package. The board members will receive $ 30 million Dollar payout, as agolden handshake as it was not there fault. FACT.

When written, this story is the right length, as we can read much quicker than someone can speak. So for audio stories it needs editing. But that is too much work for a lazy KZbinr.

If you had stayed in bed, this load of silliness wouldn't exist.

Back in the 1990's I was the protege to the file clerk in the legal department. When she retired the filing system fell on my shoulders. I worked 6 days a week with Sundays off. When I went on a two-week vacation, the paperwork in the legal department came to almost a standstill. That was when the boss and I learned of my value.

[@guymounsteven8856]

So let me get this straight . Brandon’s father asks his friend to look after his son. Mr Johnson who is the head of the company must know that Brandon has an incredibly hard work load and works late most days and is valuable to the company . Does not seem like the boss cares .

[@TriciaMarcello-ed2mm]

[@rjee007]

It's ok as long as there's overtime pay😂

[@ernieellan5694]

Fabulous story! Small company who has only one french speaker for years and have clients who only speak french. I totally see why they would never hire a second french speaker. Does AI know about such things as vacation? Days off? Evidently as well Mr. Johnson is a president who has no clue how to run a company. Oh yeah let's put toxic managers in so we can get sued due to his actions. Go team! This story was so bad it is laughable.

[@davidmonro3270]

I believe every word. Bosses don't realise what happens when they don't have Brandons to kick around until it is too late. I saw it too many times.

I ended up having a mental breakdown due to a bully boss.

[@paulleckner9148]

My bully boss started a campaign against me that eventually got me fired. So, I made a go of it alone and began a self-proprietorship. 6 weeks later the higher ups asked me to come back. I never returned their call. After 6 months, I checked the company website and my bully boss was not on there anymore.

[@roywalls5595]

I understand this video story! I workaholic for a casino company for 16 years and 10 months to was injuries and kept pushing me one day it went to far call to officials I they said I was fired and two weeks later I got phone calls from the court house judge to talk what happened at job and he said check on it and one week later got a letter from the board department and they said sorry what happens to me and I won my case got back paid and offered my job come back but I decided to see a doctor and they said need to retire from the injuries so I went back to work to clean out my locker and heard that person fired me was fired too for reporting false paperwork!! 😊

Unexpected termination. Subsequent events lead to shocking twist. Intriguing narrative unfolds

[@anonmouse15]

He probably got promoted.

[@richardbeckenbaugh1805]

Michael is autistic. I have a brother who is exactly the same way in every respect and he’s a high functioning autistic. And yes, he keeps getting promoted until he really fux up, then he moves on to another company. 2:41

[@sarahstrong7174]

We all need some comfort & support from family or friends/colleagues etc at any age, through out life there are difficulties which we have to deal with, which are demanding & draining & require energy from more than one person to get through. Sometimes we just need another person to talk things through with in order to fully understand the situation & clarify what the options are. Sometimes we need some information, or other views to compare or contrast with our own in order to get the full picture or grasp some new ideas. A positive working environment encourages good connections in which people will support each other. A negative working environment, based on toxic criticism & bullying will not be good for employee health or the health of the business as a whole.

[@karlbassett8485]

It's obviously complete fiction. As a writer myself one of the huge glaring faults is that every word is "on the nose". Every character says exactly what they are thinking. No one talks, or writes, like this. It's garbage. And a almost universal element of these stories is the protagonist is always meek, selfless, placid and just accepts all the abuse and insults, before ultimately turning the tables and getting their revenge.

[@kdeville87]

This "story" was either written by a 15 year old for a school essay or computer AI. I suspect latter.

[@Toka972]

No, a computer ai wouldn't be so superficial regarding hostile work environment and the MC wouldn't be such a crying doormat. It was definitely written by a teen oblivious of work reality, and it was most likely a female writer because the mc just keeps crying over and over again like it's gonna make the plot advance.

[@amazing763]

AI doing the writing? Perhaps, but what bothers me immediately is the clunky voice that cannot see "overtime" is a single word and renders it as the phrase "over time".
