Manager refuses to let new hire leave early to pick up his kid, he quits the job without notice: ‘I made it clear this was a deal breaker’

One piece of advice anyone should follow when starting a new job is – get absolutely everything in writing. When you go in to interview for a role, both you and the interviewer might bring up important details on the job and its conditions. If you want to make sure you are actually going to get everything that is talked about, you have to get it all in writing.
