I told them where they could shove my 2 week notice!

Retail: My boss has been harassing me and retaliating against me since he came to my store back in November. To understand how dumb he is, he once yelled at me calling me stupid for the way I answer my cellphone. I was raised to always answer the phone saying “Good morning, this is (last name of household)” back before caller-ID was a thing. To this day, I still politely answer my phone like that. He freaked out on me saying “I know who the hell you are, that's why I'm calling you. So when you're at home and answer your cellphone, you NEED to say 'hey, what's up man?' instead of that stupid XXXX!” He recently lied to HR about my Jury Duty back in February to get me fired for “time theft”.

To understand how dumb he is, he once yelled at me calling me stupid for the way I answer my cellphone. I was raised to always answer the phone saying “Good morning, this is (last name of household)” back before caller-ID was a thing. To this day, I still politely answer my phone like that. He freaked out on me saying “I know who the hell you are, that's why I'm calling you. So when you're at home and answer your cellphone, you NEED to say 'hey, what's up man?' instead of that stupid XXXX!” He recently lied to HR about my Jury Duty back in February to get me fired for “time theft”. He changed my schedule to have the 2 days of jury duty off, refused to change it in the system and hand-wrote it, then lied to the main office saying that I skipped out on 2 days of work. He was gearing up to fire me today. This morning, before I went into work, I got a phone call for a job offer at a much better company and making a ton more. I walked in the door, handed over my 2-week notice, so he had the company pay me out for my 2 weeks and just boot me. I smiled and said “Alright, I was planning on working these 2 weeks but now I get that money AND get a vacation before my new job? Sounds good to me!” He smirked at me and said “I hope the new job is worth it!” So I explained that my starting salary will be $20k more than he makes. His dirty little grin instantly faded and he said “Yeah, whatever…just make sure you don't take anything home from the company.” I just smiled and walked out of the office saying “Good luck without me.”
