It's rare to see bosses fighting the good fight on our behalf, but the woman in this next story has won the manager lottery when her boss proved to be a down-to-earth good guy, fighting on her behalf. If only this kind of wholesome work story were more common.
When u/anuncommontruth found out that his star employee was commuting from out of state, he was appalled. She was waking up at 3 AM to make it to work on time and wasting hours behind the wheel to keep her job. Because she was vital to the office's success and the team's morale, he decided he was going to try and advocate for her to work remote full time–besides, they'd all just begun coming back to the office anyways, what difference would it make for one employee to stay home?
But for HR, the 'company culture' was far more important than an employee sitting in traffic for 4 hours a day, so for 6 months, they refused the boss's pleas to let her work remote Finally this awesome boss took it upon himself to lay down the law with the higher-ups, insisting that his employee was not only invaluable to the company but worth bending the rules a little bit. Keep scrolling to read how this relentless boss advocated for his employees and hopefully the good office vibes will rub off on your own work life.
