Business Owner’s Son Made My Boss Quit
I just found out that my boss (the general manager) resigned her post today. I literally cried because she's the best manager I've ever had, and I've been through a lot of jobs. Apparently the owner's son started harassing her and being a total jerk. He told her she wasn't mentally all there, and that she wasn't doing enough for her job, among other things. She just lost her husband like two weeks ago. She is grieving, she took time off, of course her mind isn't entirely on work, she lost her husband of 20+ years and is having to restructure her entire life!

Back in 2016 I started with CRFS. Now back then these guys were just a means to an end. It was a shitty desk job but I happened to be really good at it. I stayed there through covid when they switched to WFH and stayed that way permanently(even recorded half the training procedure videos so my voice is forever held imprisoned there) . I moved up eventually to what was essentially an assistant manager position (although not paid like one). I stayed there through multiple mental breakdowns due to insane pressure from higher ups and absolutely unrealistic expectations. This place was pretty well known in our area for being brutal and shitty. But after years it took its toll and I couldn't do it and bugged out and left in 2021 to work at Aldi (that's a whole story in its own) but in 2023 CRFS reached out to…
please tell me I’m not the only one who thinks this is ridiculous. she said she was joking but said it as serious as possible after she just got done telling everybody else their shift times.
