My Micro-managing Boss Fired Me Over $80

On my last business trip, I stayed near the client’s office to rush a project.

The hotel went over the company budget by a measly eighty dollars.

During reimbursement, my boss, Marcus, pointed his finger right at my nose.

He screamed at me for having "no sense of cost awareness."

Not only did he refuse to cover the eighty dollars, but he also docked my two-thousand-dollar quarterly bonus as a penalty.

He lectured me with a heavy, patronizing sigh: "Rules are rules, Chloe. Young people need to learn respect and compliance."

I smiled, nodded, and sincerely apologized for my "mistake."
