Toilet Break Fines: I Make the Boss Pay
Since I've spent a few minutes using the toilet during work hours, I only receive 3500 dollars despite my salary being 20 thousand dollars.
I confront my boss, Vivian Dune, immediately. Although she seems fair and just on the outside, she adopts a passive-aggressive attitude with me.
"The security footage from last month shows that you've used the toilet for 40 minutes altogether. Don't tell me you're working there, right?
"It'll be 500 dollars for every minute you spend in the toilet. That's the new rule of the company. Since you're a veteran employee, you should be the one taking the lead. Honestly, I already went easy on you."
I'm a veteran employee who has been working at this company for ten years. Each business deal that I've closed brings the company at least 100 million dollars worth of revenue.
But now, I get robbed of my most basic right as a human.
Seeing my lack of response, Vivian flashes me a venomous smile.
"If you really don't want to work here, you might as well leave. Do you seriously think we need you? Don't forget that your five-year contract isn't up yet. Who in this industry will want to hire you next?"
I don't argue with her any further. But when my contract, which only has five days left, comes to an end, she's the one panicking instead.
