Hiring and training a new employee when the person you would expect to train a new employee just quit without notice isn't as cost-effective as you might think.
If you have a spate of employees leaving over such bad behavior a good owner might be asking questions about high turnover, where your standard owner could give a shit about turnover anyway. They'll hire meth addled freaks as long as they're dealing with people with zero self respect. It really doesn't work out too great in the long run.
Lol, only OP is leaving over that behavior. 99% of people would not leave a company because of that. Just look at the other comments in here. Getting a new job is stressful and not everyone has great job markets to look in. This incident would be basically nothing for the vast vast majority of workers and leaving over something like this would be way more stressful than just staying. Especially if the owner was as cool as OP stated.
