After landing a job as an accountant, everything seemed fine—until month four, when his paycheck vanished. HR kept dodging him with vague excuses. When he finally confronted his boss, he was met with gaslighting: “You’re the only one complaining. Maybe you’re the problem.”
Then came the final blow—a LinkedIn post advertising his own job. That was the moment he snapped. Calmly but firmly, he quit and demanded his unpaid salary, threatening legal action if ignored.
But quitting wasn’t just an escape—it was a pivot. He decided to start his own company, though fear lingered. Was it reckless to abandon stability? Or was this the bold leap he needed?
The story ends with a dilemma: chase financial security through another job, or embrace the risk of entrepreneurship. Either way, he refused to be exploited. And that, in itself, was a victory.
