UPDATE: My boss told me I was fired as an April fools joke.

Hi there all. I'm finally able to update the post from yesterday.

Alright, so after cooling off, talking with HR, some other team leads and a lawyer, for several hours last night and today…

It looks like Micheal is losing his position in the company, and has been put on leave. He's being replaced by somebody from my team, the other people he ran off are coming back and getting a raise for staying.

I am being shuffled to another team, getting a 5.15 dollar raise, 4 bonus weeks of vacation (starting yesterday. I need a break, going to use them all right now, since the company is already doing some rearranging and such.).

The team I am getting I will also be secondary lead on, and is a team I've been trying to get onto for 3 years ( much better bonuses and clientel.) So I get a promotion and a raise. The new boss is far less of a hassle, and she is a lot more laid back. She went to great effort to get me to join the team she knew I wanted onto today and yesterday, and gave me a lot more than I wanted.

Michael looks like he's fired from what I can tell, he has a history of issues, but he got his severance from what I heard.

My coworkers from the previous team look to have collectively complained, and used it as leverage for raises. I think they will get em too.

Its weird how fast this all turned around, but I think I'll be in a better place for it financially. Some of the advice I got from here helped a bit, and I wanted y'all to know that. I'll drop a few updates, I'm still doing some coordinating and stuff atm. Looks like I'll be taking my old client list with me, and merging it with a starter client list they want to give me when I move into the new seat.

Edit: I also got a performance/goals bonus I was supposedly supposed to get in February, not sure what happened there.
