Somto Ihezue shared a story on X (formerly Twitter) about losing his job after he declined his boss’s attempt to taste his lunch.
According to Somto, his boss, who had a habit of eating workers’ food, started tasting everyone’s food one by one. When it came to Somto’s turn, he quickly finished his food to prevent his boss from tasting it.
However, his boss noticed and gave him a mean look. A week later, he was fired for not being a team player.
He wrote, “I got fired from a workplace because I didn’t let the manager eat from my lunch. He always went around eating from everyone’s lunch, so one day, I quickly packed up all of my food before he got to me. He gave me a long, angry stare. I was fired the following week.”
