When a boss tries to swing his weight around his employees, things can go south pretty quickly. One boss who was especially into micromanaging decided that if his workers were 1 minute late, then he would dock 15 minutes of their pay. He believed that this would lead to more productivity. Maybe he learned this approach in one of those faulty 'be a boss' courses, or maybe he took notes from his own former boss, but either way, this kind of thing is not gonna fly with construction workers.
Trying to be a 'big man' doesn't usually fly with a lot of people, but I think it's fair to say that construction workers have a special kind of backbone. So the worker, OP, told his boss, 'No', plain and simple. No guessing games, just 'No'. Flabbergasted, his boss did not know what to say, but he knew he had to do something.

And finally, as a last note, I would like to send out my sincerest condolences to everyone who is having difficulties buying their loved ones a Christmas gift this December. I'm certainly chewing my nails as I stroll down the packed malls, figuring out what my mother won't frown disdainfully at. Enjoy the rest of our day, folk.
