The Downfall of the Devious Intern
The new intern always claimed to have the company’s best interests at heart, but her actions told a different story.
To cut costs, she secretly swapped the two-thousand-dollar gift basket I had prepared for a client with a knockoff version she bought online for just two dollars, shipping included.
During a critical overtime session, she turned off the power to save on electricity.
Then, she boldly suggested canceling the company’s annual holiday leave. With a self-righteous expression, she declared, “The company doesn’t support freeloaders. I believe the holiday season is the perfect time to boost sales. I propose everyone work unpaid overtime and dedicate themselves selflessly to the company!”
While the employees grumbled in frustration, I stepped up to refute her absurd suggestion and spoke out on behalf of the team.
But instead of backing down, she accused me of embezzlement in front of everyone and recommended to the boss that I be fired.
The shocking part? The boss agreed.
Fine. If that was how they wanted it, I couldn’t wait to see how the company would function without me.
