An eighteen-year-old woman currently works as a bartender at a four-star hotel. The hotel is known for hosting weddings, conferences, parties, charity dinners, and more– basically, any event that requires a large room and food.

But, while the hotel itself has a good reputation, the work environment is quite toxic. Apparently, all of the managers barely do their jobs, and they all talk badly about the other staff members behind their backs.

She and her coworkers are also assigned to six-hour shifts that end up lasting fifteen hours without any food or bathroom breaks.

So, all of this has led many workers to suffer full-blown panic attacks and even quit.

“The turnover rate is so bad that I spend half of my time teaching newbies to never see them again after a week,” she said.

Still, despite the environment always being terrible, she has persevered and stayed onboard at the hotel for a while now. But last week, she was totally pushed to her limit.

She had been working on the bar with another bartender, Jack, while two weddings and a party were being hosted.

And after Jack made a few drinks for an older man, the pair put the man’s drinks on a tray so that way he could easily carry them back to his table.

Apparently, he had already repeatedly declined to let them carry the drinks back into a wedding for him and said he would just wait for his daughter.

While the man was waiting, though, her top boss walked by and told her to offer to carry the beverages.

She reiterated that they had both asked, and he laid off. And eventually, the man’s daughter arrived, and they both left with the drinks.

“But then, a team leader– the one who makes people cry– came over and told us off for not offering. Again, we said we did. And afterward, the manager and ‘team leader’ came over to tell us off again,” she recalled.

At that point, she and Jack were both really irritated by the lack of communication between their supervisors.

Still, though, nothing changed– because five minutes later, her top manager, David, apparently dragged her and Jack out of the restaurant and freaked out on them.

“He was literally screaming and swearing his head off about the fact we apparently did not offer, and I snapped. I said we had offered, we have been told off multiple times, but no one seemed to ask,” she explained.

Then, her boss had the nerve to yell again– and this time said that if she did not “like it,” she could “freaking leave.” So, she savagely did.

She literally turned around and just began to leave.

Then, when her manager remarked, “Off you go, go tell your freaking dad,” she turned around, smiled, and responded, “Of course, I will,” before finally leaving.

And since the incident, she does not feel guilty whatsoever. After all, her boss had treated her horribly.

Nonetheless, her boss has claimed that if she does not issue an apology, she will be subjected to disciplinary action.

So, since refusing to apologize, she is now wondering if that was the wrong thing to do.

Would you apologize if your manager treated you that way? Should she feel bad for refusing?
