CLICK THIS LINK FOR ORIGINAL POST--->My Employer is Abusive
Hey Boss, why you trying to kill me? All of us were “Heroes” during Covid-19 according to your signs. We worked through it. You hid from it. We deserve better than being afraid to take care of ourselves when health issues confront us.
Your collective attitude towards us during, and after that putrid “Hero” propaganda campaign, was disgusting. Discipline turned abusive. We were suspended for “mask behavior” even though many of us had already been wearing them before the mandate.
