    “we need workers so you can’t take PTO”

    “We don’t need you, you’re fired.”

    They told him in one sentence he was essential, and in another, he was replaceable. Either they did not need him for the time he requested, as evidenced by the fact that they fired him, or they DID need him, and the boss isn’t a hypocrite, just a short sighted idiot on a power trip.

      The worst thing you can do as an employee is prove to your employer you are not needed. The boss said employee was needed but the employee proved him wrong.
