Really? I have totally quit jobs for less. But this one takes the cake.

There is a blog called Ask the Manager, where people go to, well ask the manager for tips on managing employees. Hold on with me, it gets better. This clueless boss posted a question asking about an employee who quit. Why did she quit? Because the clueless boss wouldn't allow her to take a few hours off to go to her own graduation. Now, that's horrible that the boss couldn't seem to see that graduating is a big deal. And no matter what is going on at work, it can be tabled for a day. Come on!

The boss, who has lost a very valuable employee through stupidity, goes on to ask for help:

Even though she doesn’t work here any longer, I want to reach out and tell her that quitting without notice because she didn’t get her way isn’t exactly professional. I only want to do this because she was an otherwise great employee, and I don’t want her to derail her career by doing this again and thinking it is okay. She was raised in a few dozen different foster homes and has no living family. She was homeless for a bit after she turned 18 and besides us she doesn’t have anyone in her life that has ever had professional employment. This is the only job she has had. Since she’s never had anyone to teach her professional norms, I want to help her so she doesn’t make the same mistake again. What do you think is the best way for me to do this?

Are you kidding me right now? I can feel the rage just boiling up. How dare this boss even think that it's 'cool' to do this at all!

Here's what the advising manager wrote, I'm sure not what the 'boss' here was looking for, but everyone is rooting for the employee:

If anything, you should consider reaching out to her, apologizing for how you handled the situation, and offering her the job back if she wants it."
