You Made My Life Miserable at Work. Why Are You Panicking Now That I've Quit?

After transmigrating to Blue Star more than twenty years ago, Fang Hao became an employee at a company.

Everything had been going smoothly.

Then the company parachuted in a new project manager, who started making life difficult for Fang Hao and docking his performance pay.

Fang Hao went to the boss to argue his case, only to hear: "If you can't accept it, quit. There are plenty of people who will do your job!"

Fine by me.

Fang Hao immediately handed in his resignation.

On the night of his last day, a major technical problem cropped up with the company's product.

With the project deadline drawing closer, the project manager and the boss grew more and more anxious.

"Get back here tonight. Make some changes to the files before you leave."

"Come back and sort out the technical problems before you go."

"The company gave you a job. Even if you're not grateful, surely you don't have to go this far?"

"I was wrong to fire you back then. Please come in for a bit..."

Watching the boss send message after message, begging him to come back and put out the fire after he'd already left, Fang Hao couldn't help laughing.

You went out of your way to make my life miserable, and now that you've actually driven me away, what's there to panic about?
