    I finally made a vague comment pushing back against my boss’s fucking unhinged conspiracy theories and shitty beliefs after being forced to hear him spout it for nearly a year.

    “Wow, Wayne. I thought you were against the government regulating what people should do with their bodies. Huh… but okay.”

    He turned purple, didn’t talk to me for the rest of the day, and never put me on the schedule after that.

    Their entire business closed down a few months ago. I feel bad for were the ladies working there & my one co-worker. They were all part of the same church/religion, and they all basically cowered before Wayne. Wayne was an asshole who treated them all terribly. He was just mad that I didn’t let him treat me the same way.

    They also didn’t want to give me more than 18 hours per week or raise my pay up from 12$ an hour for the highly specialized job I was doing.

    Good riddance, Wayne.

            Worst part of this too is when they get COVID and its the most mild case ever, cementing their shitting attitude about it being a “cold at worst.”

              Nah. This dude literally had a “mysterious heart attack” during the pandemic and never connected the dots. He survived. Literally blamed it on people who were “vaccine shedding”.

              Him and his wife also lamented on how many friends of theirs had died during covid, but always found an excuse to blame literally anything else but the pandemic.

              Guy went so far as to make fun of a man who came into the shop wearing a mask. The man’s wife was battling cancer at home.
