"A company fired one of its workers ( u/shot_wrap_7656) without reason, but later reversed the decision after the employee used their AI against them and pulled off the ultimate holiday coup. They posted the story on Reddit on December 24. The person had opted to work from home for a few days, after informing their team and the whole of management."
"They received an official disciplinary notice along with multiple documents accusing them of being an unfaithful employee. "So naturally, the only option was to ask for my immediate (and free) dismissal," they wrote. The person had about two days to submit their defense, while the company had been planning for their layoff for weeks. They read the accusations carefully and realized the company had clearly blown things out of proportion, only to terminate them."
"In response, the employee wrote a very detailed defense using the AI system that the company promotes, and surprisingly, it worked in their favor. "Expecting to be fired any moment for months, I took all my annual leave for the winter holidays and waited for my fate," they explained. However, just before Christmas, they received an email stating that the company wouldn't take any further action against them."
An employee who had informed both team and management worked from home for a few days and then faced an HR escalation for remote work on expected office days. The company issued a disciplinary notice with multiple accusations and allowed about two days for a defense while planning a broader layoff. The employee used the company’s promoted AI to produce a detailed defense. The company rescinded disciplinary action just before Christmas. The employee had taken annual winter leave and expressed willingness to either continue or discuss a mutual separation. Unfair terminations have become increasingly common.
