Company Gets Called Out For Having The Most Insane Quitting Policy
Once you get in, there is no coming out...
You can find numerous statements from companies sharing heartbreaking stories about how they are understaffed and can't find workers, even though they offer great salaries and working conditions. Those poor managers really do have it rough.
They are doing their best to shower their employees with attention, raises, and reasonable working hours. And how are the workers repaying them?
By quitting their beautiful, wonderful jobs. Yes, there is something about their version of the story that just doesn’t add up.
In fact, it is a blatant lie. The reasons companies are struggling to attract and retain workers are miserable wages, long hours, and ridiculous company policies.
After being shared on a popular forum, images of a supposed resignation policy quickly became famous on Reddit. According to the company's resignation policy, all tips would be withheld, and all compensation would be decreased.
The thread was published in Reddit's r/antiwork community by the bewildered boyfriend of an ex-employee. He posted the thread with the title, "My girlfriend's last job has an interesting response to quitting."
The post has attracted a lot of attention and many comments. People can't believe that the company's demands could be legal.
Take a look and see for yourself:
OP posted an interesting document showing how his girlfriend's last company viewed quitting.

u/Particular_Ticket_85Redditors believe this is not legal in the US. Additionally, they also considered some illegal actions as a response.

Some states have different laws.

This company is begging for it - just take your check and leave...
u/Particular_Ticket_85
Yes, they could've made it sound much nicer. But why bother? These ungrateful workers wouldn't appreciate it anyway...
u/Particular_Ticket_85
Yes, there is definitely some lawsuit material here...

Seems illegal. But only because it is.

Reducing already earned wages? This can't be legal. The UK says it is not.

OP and his girlfriend want to take the company to small claims court but are afraid of hurting the immigrant workers there.

It is also illegal in France.

Some companies have policies that protect them from disgruntled employees leaving immediately after receiving their checks.

Basically, what this company is doing is illegal in most countries. But it is immoral everywhere.
And that's a fact. The managers are obviously not aware of the definition of an idiot - it is a person who keeps doing exactly the same thing over and over under the same circumstances and fails every time.
And they never think of changing anything. The iron-fist management has failed.
Frankly, it never worked. You can't treat people like they are slaves whose only ambition in life is to earn money for your company.
Unfortunately, some managers still fail to see that. They have surrounded themselves with "yes people" who simply confirm whatever they think or say.
And they live in a bubble, totally unaware of the world around them. Well, it is time for some rude awakening.
