It wasnt the best of jobs, but it was a job.
Necessary evil,ya know.
At one point, OP developed health issues and had to take a break from working for two months.
On top of that, there were also some complications that set OP back an extra week.
And besides work, OP also had graduate school to tend to.
This all culminated in OP being so sick that she had to take some strong meds.
Strong enough to knock her out and hence not be able to call in sick.
While OP does agree that it was her bad, this is where the boss crossed the line.
Spoiler: she quit.
Practically on the spot.
And, if you ask me, thats the perfect kind of story to tell online.
[The boss was always toxic with his employees].
And, it seems that not much has changed.
OP explained that from what she knows from her former coworkers, the boss only got worse.
The company was, however, slowly unionizing.
The show of support and praise for OP was immense.
Others shared stories of similar employers.
They quit a few weeks later.
