Even my absolute worst boss, who had a horrible temper, would rarely fire someone on the floor in front of coworkers. And that man was a walking red flag who got fired after about a year in his position, when his bosses finally found out how he treated his employees. I assume that the company mentioned here didn't have a proper HR representative who knew and understood the law about religious discrimination. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] VitoRobles@lemmy.today 12 points 1 month ago (2 children) Can confirm this. My first job had a manager who loved "making examples out of people". One time, he threatened to fire a girl because she didn't organize something the way he wanted, and went on a speech about how he is to be respected and when the girl told the owner, they hired a second manager to potentially remove him. He later went to jail for stabbing a guy at a bar, probably drunk. So he removed himself. He then became a cop. So that's cool. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] nickiwest@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago Most responsible business owners understand the cost of hiring new employees, so they want to keep productive employees for as long as possible. And if middle managers are mistreating employees, a good business owner will do something about it. Not to say that all business owners are good. Having worked for good and bad people, I can say that leaving a business with bad ownership is always a good thing in the long run, even if it hurts in the short term. permalink fedilink source parent [–] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago O_O permalink fedilink source parent
