Most people have realized by now that a majority of companies don’t really care about their employee’s individually, and would replace them without a thought.

Still, it can be a tough realization when you work hard only to be crapped on when you ask for a little time off.

That’s what happened to this employee, but he definitely didn’t forgive and forget.

Check it out.

If you don’t like it, you can just leave.

I’ve been working with a home health agency for the better part of 9 months.

I work 12 hour days with cases raging from complex to simple.

In that time I’ve worked 11 unscheduled doubles, and 42 additional twelve hour overtime shifts.

I have used exactly 2 sick days. 1 for myself and 1 for my kid.

He’s been working tirelessly for these people…

I do not call out, I do not show up late, and I don’t do the corner cutting they suggest.

I take vacation time on my off days.

I’ve saved them on 3 specific occasions from failing audits.

I picked up so much because a) the money is nice, b) I legitimately care about the wellbeing of my patients, and c) they begged me.

the company has been messing everything up!

You see, the company I work for likes to take on new clients without having enough staff to cover that patient.

Then, they freak out and offer bonuses for us to pick up.

These are governmentally contracted jobs with big DOE bucks coming in.

If they can’t prove the patient is taken care of, they are fined heavily.

Too many fines and they’re blackballed from taking new DOE clients at all.

He’s so done with these people!

This company is so poorly run, it’s a joke.

They have 8 schedulers, but still send mass texts every single day asking us to pick up (these happen all hours of day and night).

They often double book or randomly change schedules without informing clients or nurses.

They also underpay for my area. Not much, but paying $4 less per hour is a big deal.

They also won’t respond to your questions, calls, or texts for days to weeks at a time.

I’ve been looking around for a while and found a company that pays more, has good leadership, and they said they’d have me on the ground running closer to home if I just went through their hiring program.

This is where his revenge story picks up!

I agreed and have been an employee with them for about a month, just no hours worked yet.

Back to my Malicious Compliance.

I knew I’d be out of town for a couple of days and have 9 days worth of PTO banked.

I decided to help them out and “ask” for 3 days off. I assumed that would give them enough time to fill my spot.

He went through proper channel…

I did this on Sept. 13. The days I requested are Oct. 12, 13, and 14. It’s a mini vacation for my family since I worked all summer.

Monday I received a nasty email about the final day for PDO requests being September 10.

I let the manager know I was trying to help them out by giving them time to fill it.

She shot back with how “selfish” of me it was to “leave her short handed”. She rejected my PTO requests.

Tuesday I showed up at the office to discuss this little frustration.

I mentioned my exemplary work history and intention of making things easier for them.

This lady was INSANE!

She slammed the table with her balled fists and said. “You will work those days. I don’t care if you have a trip planned to Australia, you’ll be there. If you don’t like it, you can just leave.”

It was her annoying smirk that set me off.

I stood up, took a mint and said “As you wish. I expect all my PTO to be on my next paycheck in accordance with our state’s PTO laws. I hope you can fill the opening on such short notice.”

The look of horror on her face was more valuable than the PTO.

They realised their mistake!

In the past 24+ hours I’ve received 19 voicemails asking if I can come into work because they’re short.

Tonight is my first night with the new company.

It ended up being $6/hr more, 48 minutes each way closer to home, and I get paid 40 hours even though I worked 36.

Be careful what you wish for. You may just get it.

This guy made sure the company got what they deserved!
