Employee quits, then overhears boss talking about ordering a petty goodbye cake for her: 'My last day will be a nightmare'

This boss clearly enjoys messing around with his soon-to-be former employees on their last days. Whatever happened to being professional and leaving things on a strong note?

It sounds like this dude has yet to put two and two together and realize that his manipulative and outright cruel tactics are the main reason why one employee after another is quitting on the spot. The original poster (OP) of this thread explained that after giving their two weeks' notice, they overheard their boss telling another coworker that the plan was to make a petty custom goodbye cake "to rub it in."

To rub what in exactly? The fact that OP is moving on to bigger and better opportunities? According to OP, the past few employees who left the company were each given strange goodbyes on their last days, so after overhearing this shady comment, OP is dreading that final day on the job. We agree with what some folks in the comments section suggested: call in sick.
