Our Boss Loves Making Empty Promises Chapter 1
“Young people need to work hard. If you work hard, you’ll be rewarded. At the end of the year, I’ll give out shares based on how much each person worked. Everyone will get a bonus!“Today, Kaden cleaned the restroom without being asked. He’ll get a 0.01% increase in shares at the end of the year, and I’ve noted it down. Everyone should follow his example.”Jennifer Tadley, our boss, was a woman in her forties. She wore a lot of makeup, and we could smell her pungent perfume when she walked by.Looking at everything around me, I realized I had been reincarnated to the day Jennifer first made those empty promises to the staff.In my past life, Jennifer asked me to stay behind after the meeting. “You’re the head chef, so you need to set an example. Next year, when I open a new restaurant, I’ll have you manage it.“For every two hours of overtime, covering someone else’s work, or saving the company 1,000 dollars, you’ll get 0.01% more shares. I told them this, but for you, I’ll double

Everything was like in the previous life. Kaden was very excited. Actually, he was asked by a senior staff to clean the restroom. By chance, Jennifer saw him doing it and decided to reward him with a 0.01% share in the restaurant. How could this not make him happy?Kaden was a young man in his twenties from a rural village with little education. His relatives at home often looked down on him and said he would never succeed. The restaurant’s new policy gave him a chance to make real money, so he was determined to grab it.Hard work? That was not a problem for him. Compared to working on a construction site, working in a restaurant was much easier.Jennifer’s restaurant employed over 20 people. It was located in a busy shopping mall and generated about a million dollars in revenue every month.Using what little math he knew, Kaden figured that if he worked hard for a year, he could earn tens of thousands in bonuses.The senior staff who had sent him to clean the restroom joked, “Loo

Kaden worked overtime every day and stayed up late to prepare the ingredients.I did not care how hard he worked. I just made sure to leave when my shift ended.The rest of the staff worked a bit harder too, but they could not keep up with the high demands for 30 days. This worked out just as Jennifer had planned.Jennifer believed that as long as she encouraged the staff in monthly meetings, they would work a little harder for about a week. This would improve the restaurant’s performance.At the end of the month, it showed that everyone had been conscious of saving costs.For example, they saved on utilities, napkins, disposable forks and spoons, and even free drinks. They even managed to save on ingredients, which was a big part of the restaurant’s expenses. Jennifer thought her strategy of making empty promises to the staff was a smart move.Since the employees had something to look forward to, their attitude improved too. The restaurant got many positive reviews online, and s

After Lindsey explained why she came, she started asking Kaden questions.“Are you on the night shift? Is anyone else working now?”Kaden shook his head. “No, it’s just me. I’m not on the night shift. I’m working overtime because I want to.”“What were you doing on the ladder earlier?”Kaden said, “I saw some dust on the lightbulb, so I climbed up to clean it.”“Is this your restaurant?”Kaden quickly denied it. “Oh no, not at all. At least not yet. Our boss said if we work hard, we’ll get shares at the end of the year. I’m trying to earn more to get married.”“Your boss sounds amazing! I’m sure you’ll get there.”Seeing how friendly they were, Kaden began to open up more. He led them to the kitchen and proudly showed them the whiteboard tracking employee shares. His name was at the top.Kaden proudly turned to the camera and said, “I’ve already earned 1.05% of the shares. I’m the hardest worker here. I unload shipments, serve food, clean, prep ingredients, and even clean the

One day, Jennifer’s daughter, Hailey Camp, went out with her classmates. Late at night, they got hungry, and her classmates suggested they eat at Jennifer’s restaurant.“Are you serious? It’s so late. The head chef’s already gone home. There’s probably no food left.”Her classmate nudged her with a grin. “Hailey, don’t tell me you’re too cheap to treat us? Your family’s restaurant is super popular online. Someone’s got to be there. Let’s check out that ‘loyal dog’ of yours.”Speaking of the “loyal dog”, Hailey was curious too.The group of four girls and three boys went to the restaurant. In the kitchen, Kaden was peeling rotten fruits he had picked up from the market. When he heard voices outside, he quickly came out to check.“You’re Kaden, right?” The group started pointing at and whispering about him, but he did not seem bothered. Late-night customers meant extra money for the restaurant, and he would get credit for it.“Yes, that’s me. What would you like to eat?”The gro

The Food Management Bureau got a complaint from a citizen and came to check out Jennifer’s steakhouse. They found rotten meat and fruit in the kitchen fridge. When Jennifer saw it, she was shocked and confused.“I would never allow my staff to use this! How did this end up in my kitchen? Someone is trying to set me up!”The inspectors checked the mall’s surveillance footage and saw Kaden bringing in big bags of rotten food late at night. The evidence was clear. It was him.Jennifer was furious when she saw this. She confronted Kaden. “Why are you trying to ruin me?! Who told you to do this?!”Kaden defended himself. “Boss, I was trying to save you money! Didn’t you notice the food expenses have been cut in half? That’s all me. Did I do something wrong by saving money for our restaurant?”“What do you mean ‘our restaurant’? This is my restaurant! When I tell you to do something, you do it! Did I ask you to save money here?”The inspectors were still there, and with clear evidence,

The entire team of employees was present. We watched as Kaden walked in with a whiteboard. Everyone stayed quiet and waited to see the drama unfold.Kaden started showing Jennifer the details.“For the past 12 months, I’ve taken 2,000 dollars less each month, which adds up to 0.24% in shares…“Besides my regular job as a prep cook, I also worked as a mover, cleaner, waiter, and even helped out as a chef at night. That’s another 0.48% in shares.“Another big part is the 200,000 dollars I saved for the restaurant over the year. That’s worth 2% in shares.“I also brought in 100,000 dollars by serving clients at night, which is 1% in shares.“On my days off and holidays, I handed out flyers and delivered takeout for nearby neighborhoods and schools. I have everything documented for that. That’s 3% in shares.”…I was impressed as I listened. Kaden knew what he was doing. He had a lot of ways to make money that I had not thought of.All the things he added up actually came to 10%!

The others quickly followed me. They were still arguing inside.“Hailey only came to eat at night, and you made a few meals for her. She never mentioned you to me! Does she even know how you feel? And look at yourself! Do you think she would be interested in you?!”Jennifer could not believe her daughter, who was so proud, could like a country bumpkin who was just a prep cook!“So what if my son is a prep cook? He works hard and is ambitious! He doesn’t cause trouble for his family! If you give him the shares you promised, he won’t just be a prep cook. He’ll be one of the bosses!“He can become a boss at such a young age! How could he not be good enough for your daughter?!” Kaden’s mom slammed the table in frustration.“You’re dreaming! You want my shares and my daughter? Get out! If you don’t, I’ll call the cops!”At that moment, Kaden pulled out his phone and finally spoke up.“I wanted to record the happy moment of getting my shares, but I ended up recording you going back on
