Antiwork

Got fired because a couple employees had complaints that I reported.

I work in a kitchen, not too big of a spot and not to hot, as the sous chef. When I was hired, the head chef used the extra management (being me) as an reason to start getting hammered during service. He would constantly make inappropriate comments to the servers. He would distract the line during service, then get upset and start harassing whatever cook he was distracting when the made a mistake.

It made work toxic and uncomfortable for weeks. One day, a day the head chef had off, I had multiple cooks coke to me and mention how the head chef made them really contemplate finding employment elsewhere. The owner ended up hearing about it and chewed him out the following day. (My day off) when I returned to work, and made it through service he fired me on the spot not for work quality, but because he assumes I told the owner to “snitch”.

As I'm collecting my things, he's yelling at me to go cry to owner again.

I really don't know what to do now
