A Reddit user shared they quit their job after boss yelled at them for asking a raise.(Reddit/@aryawitner)

In a post Reddit user @aryawitner, they explain that in March 2023, they asked their boss for a raise. However, instead of providing an explanation for why a raise wouldn’t be possible, the boss called and shouted at them. Following this incident, the individual began searching for a new job and eventually found one.
They further wrote, “I told my boss on May 12 that I had a job offer, but hadn’t made up my mind, expecting that he’d at least make me an offer to stay or ask what it would take for me to stay. He just never brought it up, so I told him on May 19 that I was finishing up and my last day is June 9. He and his wife are weeks into their massive hissy fit about me leaving. Part of my punishment for leaving for more money is that he has since given me more money. Then to top it off, he tells me that when they hired me a year ago they expected me to work there until either retirement or the company went out of business. I just kinda stared at him when he said that. Another punishment is he doesn’t want to talk to me anymore, so instead of calling me 25x a day (no exaggeration) he calls me 2 or 3 times.”
