My boss gave me a pretty bad dressing down in front of everyone (nearly 40 people)

I made a silly mistake and my boss and superior ended up sending some files to another firm who saw it, I actually told my other superior this about my mistake immediately and he said it’s fine and he would inform them. Didn’t hear anything of it, that was Friday
Anyway so I’m sitting at my desk and my boss comes up to me, slams down the sheets and ask if what my deal is

I’m thinking he’s doing a bit so I ask what his deal is. He looks at me and begins , in front of everyone, to go on a rant about ik immature, I’m a joke, I’m dragging this company down, how could I be so selfish. For about nearly 10 minutes he did this, in front of people I train and other coworkers and I just blanked out. After he stopped I just went to my car, and my other superior came out and said it’s ok if I go home for the day

This is the first mistake I’ve ever made, if he had corrected me privately even, or yelled at me in private fine but he pretty much dressed me down in front of people who look up to me
I don’t know if I should quit, because it seems irredeemable to me. Is quitting the way to go? Btw he acted like nothing happened today , so I’m probably not fired but Fuck
Would you quit?

You should speak with a lawyer, especially since there were witnesses to the incident.
>>
>>34586688
Take a knife to work and stab his eyes out and then when he screams "WHYYYY" just keep telling him "what's your deal man"
>>
>>34586757
Cringe.

Kek

Just put in zero effort from now on, find another job, sue for defamation or some shit if you have money for a lawyer, at least consultate one?
>>
>>34586688
Lmao don't quit you're getting paid. Sure it may feel bad in the moment but just go home jack off and play GTA.

just fucking grow fucking balls and just fucking confront him infront of everyone, if you aret thinking about leaving the job then you have fucking nothing else to lose.

There is a guy sitting with me in the same room with other 20 people, most of them are bitches and he asks them everytime he wants to turn on the air cooler. The whores are sitting with their waist open cause its summer time and they complain that its too cold with the fucking air cooler on while this faggot is sitting there sweating. A month ago+ i just told this guy who got the job a week before me to turn it on without asking, and i said loudly "if you are cold just dont sit naked". From then there wasnt a single fucking time this whores fucking complained, same goes with the boss and other narcy faggots. Just realise that most people will only respect you if you scream, punch and spit on them and thats what you should literally do to your boss and you will get raise and respect the next day.

Immediately look for other work. Whether you quit or halfass your job until you're fired is up to you. When you do leave, tell your boss that the decision is 100% because of his behavior, all the better if you can write a resignation letter and cc your boss's boss

Caring about this is "Jesus looks on at the observable universe and says don't masturbate" tier
>if he had corrected me privately even, or yelled at me in private fine
You're a spineless cuck and should reconsider your life of sitting in cube with a noose on your neck shuffling little digital pieces of paper around
>>
>>34586688
Yeah, start looking for a new job. As soon as you've got an offer elsewhere, quit with no notice. If you want to be dramatic, dress him down in turn in front of everyone about his unprofessional bullshit and then announce how much more you're making at the new job.
>>
The first time I got chewed out by a boss I quit instantly. Nobody is gonna talk to me like that I will live under a bridge before I even think about anyone as superior to me for a second

The advice I would give you is three fold:

1: Read the 48 laws of Power by Robert Greene. This will teach you how to deal with people in power, and how to project power and respect from others without looking like a cringe retard, becuase doing shit like >>34586757
is stupid, childish, and lands you in prison, and then who really won?

2: Read How to Stop Worrying and Start Living by Dale Carnegie. This will help you manage stress.

3: Watch Ed Hone's YouTube channel. He's an attorney specializing in employment law, and his videos tell you how to navigate scenarios like this while simultaneously building a case that will fuck over the company while protecting you.

Unironically this. Don't leave a job unless your mental health is getting seriously impacted. Especially in this job market. But most of the time you can engage in "Dissociative Work Behavior" which is where you show up, do the minimum, and become a stupid little yes man until you find a new job. Basically, you have ZERO emotional attachment to the job, and you focus outward.

But honestly, if they are going to be like this to you, make them fire YOU. Don't ever quit. Doing that is like admitting fault an accident. You waive your right to things like unemployment or short-term disability from job stress.

Also, document everything. Record names, dates, times, etc. The sooner you start building a case with documentation you control (e.g that you store on a computer at home) the more they get fucked. Also, never threaten to sue. Never threaten anything, really. Threatening is what weak people and children do. You play your cards prematurely. If you are going to strike/sue/whatever you just do it, and without warning. Just like in a military operation, the US just bombs a target, they don't go on CNN and threaten it, it just happens. Then people can't do damage control, they cannot react properly and with grace, they panic.
