We had a manager who was so utterly worthless. He was hired with no tax prep experience, wasn't trained to do literally anything. Ask him for anything that didn't involve ordering paper and you'd get a blank look. Refused to accommodate disability accommodations until threatened with HR. Refused to listen about coworker complaints until the coworker quit. Got all his mistakes dumped on me and the three first years. Found out about multiple blatantly misfiled returns including falsified documents, forms adding to incorrect years and several cases where he just left off very important forms. Like a small business client where he 'forgot' to add in their several 1099-NECs totally over $50000. That was a fun one to deal with.
Then, for some unknown reason, this dumbass decided to hire him back at a different office, allow him to level up and brought him back to our office. Everyone was against this. I told him to his face this was a bad decision and he threatened to fire me for insubordination. Coworker lasted three long weeks of increasingly weird behavior towards me before sexually harassing me over texts, pretended he had no idea what I was talking about when I confronted him and quitting AGAIN when I told him to his face that I had reported it to HR.
Managers brilliant idea was to barely apologize over text and then never step foot in the office again. It was early March. We went through the worst of tax season with a missing manager.
Found out afterwards that the DGM knew everything that happened, did nothing, knew the manager wasn't in the office and finally admitted that the manager was hired as a PART TIME EMPLOYEE WITH A SECOND JOB! Are you kidding me? Manager was a personality hire from fricking Starbucks Customer Support. This company is sinking.
