If you've ever worked in a company with poor management, you know how frustrating it can be. You feel like you're constantly being micromanaged and your ideas are never heard.

This can lead to a feeling of being devalued and unimportant. Poor management can also cause a lot of stress.

You may feel like you're always on the verge of being fired or that your work is never good enough. This can lead to anxiety and depression.

If you're in a situation like this, it's important to remember that it's not your fault. You are not alone.

While there are many ways to address this issue, others use the strength by numbers tactic in the workplace. Today, we're looking at an infuriating story about a loyal worker who was fired and the aftermath of that situation.

A user named No_StopItStepbro ranted in the AntiWork subreddit after he found out that his coworker got the sack. The reason is certainly outrageous.

In most workplaces, you only get a pay cut when you're late. Repeat the action, and you'll most likely get a warning.

But the person who got fired was only late once after seven years of working there. Let's take a look at the story and the reactions of the community.

Since they can't get everything done without the dismissed employee, they all decided to come in late.

They decided to be late until the management gets him back.

They decided to retaliate because of the unfair treatment.

If they're late for work, the next person to be dismissed could be one of them.

Job security is important, especially during times like this.

These employees felt the need to fight for their place in the company.

The dismissed employee appreciated the efforts.

We hope that their small strike action taught their management a lesson.

Some Redditors weren't supportive of his actions. Others didn't believe his story.

We hope the management treats them right this time and moving forward.

Apparently, tardiness is a huge issues in some companies.

Some managers are so adept at finding faults in their loyal employees.

Do these people want their employees to risk their lives just to avoid being late?

The management need to review their policies on tardiness. Why can't they be understanding of their employees' situation?

Some companies make no sense.

It takes so much energy to be angry and so little to be understanding.

The tardiness of employees surely has an impact on businesses.

Since businesses run on the money they earn, bosses want to achieve a high level of productivity as possible. Company policies do need to address workers who are frequently tardy.

But it's an entirely different story if an employee was only late once. In that case, it's not really a big deal and should never be a big deal.

Bosses should focus on the work an employee does rather than the error they committed only once. After all, quality is more important than quantity.

If an employee is able to complete their work and meet deadlines, then there's no need to worry about tardiness that happens once in a blue moon.
