Man Late Due To His Child, Boss Warns Him Not To Be Late Again Or Else He Should Quit

Jonathan Hayda

In a recent workplace saga, OP found themselves entangled in a battle against the clock. A couple of weeks ago, a late arrival led to a stern warning from their boss, who emphasized the importance of showing up on time. OP tried to reason, explaining a childcare misunderstanding that contributed to the delay. However, fate had other plans, and the following Monday brought another bout of lateness.

Faced with the wrath of an unsatisfied boss, OP took a bold step. Unable to reach the boss, they left a voicemail and made a pivotal decision – the quest for a new job commenced, with a starting date set for the upcoming Monday.

As fate would have it, the boss called on Monday afternoon, seeking an explanation for OP's absence. Fearlessly, OP admitted to being late again and dropped the bombshell—they were resigning. This unexpected twist left the boss fuming, demanding a face-to-face confrontation scheduled for the end of the week.

So what's Reddit's verdict on this case? Let's find out!
