In an ironic twist of fate, a Reddit user, Pickyickyicky, recently shared a story on r/antiwork about their boss. The boss once showed no sympathy for a coworker grieving his dying mother, but he now faces the heartbreak of watching his own mother suffer from a terminal illness. The story has resonated with many, shining a light on workplace empathy and the power dynamics at play.
What the hell is this article? One reddit user said, and then other reddit users also said…
It’s literally just recapping a comment chain. How is this worth anything ?There’s no asking the people more questions, no follow-up at all. Just taking comments on reddit at face value.
And of course they used slam in the title.

I’m a Lemming. I don’t read the articles. I’m just participating in the comments to feel like I have a social life!
You heard it here first folks.

This article smells like ChatGPT.
The reddit post it’s based on is probably also fake.
Nah, it has a direct citation to a LinkedIn post - it must be real!
That’s what writing is now.
I was kind of hoping that shithole will die in a bot excrement ingestion spiral, not become primary sources.
Story is confusing. Is the second person with the dying mother the business owner or the second employee who pointed out the bosses assholish behavior?
Let’s be honest here… This is a reddit karma farm unless proven otherwise
