Some combinations are destined for greatness—peanut butter and jelly, wine and cheese, weekends and sleeping in. Burger and cheese? Heaven. Road trip and an accurate playlist? Perfection. Work and family, however, is usually a pairing best left in the do not try this at home, or at work, category.
There’s a reason HR and divorce lawyers have separate offices. And yet, every so often, someone comes along to prove the universe really does have a wicked sense of humor, like this man’s old boss: CEO, marriage license-holder, chaos concierge. While most people say “I do” and hope to avoid throwing objects across the dinner table, this lady married and co-founded a startup just so she could throw her husband directly out of the boardroom, complete with a security convoy and an audience.
Honestly, she takes the wedding cake and the entire dessert cart. One minute, she’s boiling over, publicly firing her own spouse, but the next? Just imagine everyone’s faces when Mr. Fired shows up the very next morning, clocking in like his only sin was taking a long lunch.
Apparently, in this office, a security boot is just an aggressive coffee break. No amount of blind faith prepares you for a Monday where your boss and her husband keep firing and re-hiring each other while you calculate if your LinkedIn can withstand another plot twist.
