Employees Who Refused To Deal With The BS Of Their Entitled Bosses And Stood Up To Them

Most people rely on their jobs to provide a living for themselves and their families, and risking losing it is not something anyone is ever willing to do. That is why many employees have learned how to endure things that should normally not be accepted in order to avoid getting fired.

Standing up to your boss might feel good, but the consequences that come with it are not something people are ready to face. This often leads to a lot of abuse in workplaces from bosses who know that their employees can't stand up to them because they depend on their jobs.

When enough is enough, people decide to no longer tolerate the BS they usually brush off and do not pay much attention to, as they have been conditioned to do so. Eventually, people lose their patience, and whoever is pressing them gets what they deserve.

The individuals in the photos below decided that they no longer wanted to deal with their employers' BS; they stood up to them, and some even quit afterward. Those entitled bosses got what they deserved, and hopefully, these individuals will find better jobs very soon.

2. "Employer Gave Me A $4 Raise Today"

I work as a welder, and today my employer individually talked to all the welders and offered us a raise because they want to keep employees and attract new people. When he told me my hourly pay rate went up by $4 an hour, I almost couldn't believe it. I work a lot of overtime and the night shift. I was feeling burned out from the hours, but once I got the raise, I was so happy that I went right back to work, and now I’m working all the overtime I can get. I’ve been with this company for three months; they have bought me a pair of boots, uniforms, prescription safety glasses, and provided me with a lot of free equipment for protection, and my morale just keeps getting higher while I work until 3 AM with a smile on my face.Invest in your employees; when you treat them like an asset and not a cost, you get better as a business.Reddit

14. "Manager Steals Tips; One Upvote And He Gets My 2 Weeks Today"

Edit: I am going to quit tonight. Not even finish my shift. He’s getting my keys and uniform, and I'm gone. Thank you, guys, for the words and the help! I’ve been working since I was 14 under incredibly lousy bosses, so I never realized how illegal his actions were. I’m going to call him out tonight and leave during my shift. I truly appreciate you guys. I’ll update it when I do quit :)! Sorry for the format; I am on a phone. Your guys’ favorite thing to hear. I recently started work at a pizza place in Washington state. I should’ve known my interview was a red flag when the entire time my manager talked about his medical issues. A delivery driver ended up quitting a few weeks after I started because of the verbal degradation our manager was giving him. 'This boy went to college but is too dumb to remember what garlic butter is' type stuff. He verbally insults everyone that walks into the shop or behind their face. I should’ve left then, but I stayed. I made 30 cents more than minimum wage for being a team leader (which he took away January first), and I thought everything was okay until it was just me and him working one night and we made over $1k in food. I received $105 worth of tips that night, and my manager gave me $45, which really made me mad since he was told not to take tips by his boss. My final straw was last night. From 11 AM to 9 PM, we made $34 in tips total. At 7 PM, when my manager left, we had made $24 in tips, and he decided to take $30 out of the till, leaving me with a $2 tip at 9 PM. He stole money from the store. He continued to take tips when he didn’t do any work. The entire crew is quitting because of how lousy he treats us.Reddit

After several months of having my vacation time off requests denied, my staff being fired and not replaced, and my work hours increased without my consent, I walked into my boss's office and handed her my resignation letter. I was giving four weeks' notice, which I thought was nice. She looked at me and said, 'No. I can't deal with this today,' packed her stuff, and left for a day of shopping on company time.I went to my office, cleaned it out, finished off a day's work, and put my keys in her mailbox.The next day, I got a call from HR saying they were giving me the day off without pay to think about what I did and that I was expected to be at work the next day.No thanks.Two years later, I'm living my dream life.Reddit

Getting mistreated in your place of work is probably the worst thing anyone could ever go through. You are practically forced to go to work every day because your livelihood depends on it, so you can't escape from the toxic situation you find yourself in.

Standing up to your employer can lead to you getting fired, and most people don't want to deal with the hassle of finding a new job and integrating into it once again. However, people should always prioritize their dignity and refuse to endure any mistreatment or bullying.
