A KakaoTalk chat from Wednesday, October 18, 2017. The employee (yellow bubbles) messages their boss at 8:32 AM in full panic mode: 'I'm so sorry, I'm going to be late today… ㅠㅠ I left my work stuff at home… I went back to get my bag right away, I'll be there ASAP. So sorry!!'
The boss responds with a single 'ㅇ' (basically 'k') and when the employee desperately pleads 'Please give me leniency 🙏', the boss simply replies: '담에' ('Next time.')
Then at 9:16 AM, the boss sends a photo of... the employee's empty, abandoned desk. Just the desk. Sitting there. Alone. Followed by a single '?'
The employee has already arrived and the desk is empty. The boss is asking where they are WITHOUT WORDS. Absolutely brutal.
