What's the worst line you have ever heard from your manager?๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ

I have worked in 4 different companies, and have experienced different types of managers, few of them were extremely obnoxious to say the least. One of them was in a sales role where he categorically said "Bhai Mujhe fark nahi padta Teri tabiyat sahi hai ya nahi, agar kaam nhi ho Raha to paper daal de. Salary bhi justify nhi Kara Raha tu".

I'm wondering what's the situation in other roles or companies. Please Comment what was your worst one liner from your manager or senior.

You're not married right? So, what's the rush in going home? (He said this after I completed a 9 hour shift)

It's a 2 minutes job. His favorite line. Would use it on everyone in the meetings. No wonder everyone was trying to change the project or change the company.

I remember when I joined my prev org. After around 10 months I had a dog bite on my left palm at night I informed my manager next morn that I won't be able to come to office because of this reason. What she said, I still remember crystal clear. Her response was: come to office, show me you actually had a dog bite, remove all the medical dressing that is all over your palm. Show me the wound and then take the leave!

Bhaii these people are crazy I tell you. I mean she could just have asked for the prescription. Ya fir bas offce aake dikha do! But remove the medical dressing and show me the actual wound?

My manager says a lot of funny things(he isn't aware).. He asks every detail as If he's gonna help after we explain he says why is it not working. Once I laughed almost then controlled and said that's what ,we have to find out and I'm checking. Once topic came about healthy lifestyle and diet in breakout session.
He asked me to get married so that I can have home cooked food. This is the funniest reason anyone has ever told me, for getting married.

The worst one is also related to marriage. When I said I couldn't stay late every sprint, he said, 'You're not married yet, so what would you do by going home early?'

โ€œTry and go to the HR. We will submit a report of you physically assaulting your Female Team Lead.โ€ L6 Manager in Amazon when I complained about my Projects credit being given to an L3 that another L5 was fucking and she got promoted for it.
โ€œApne kaam se matlab rakh, zyada vocal hoga toh woh kaam bhi nahi bachegaโ€ L5 manager when I pointed out that the method used by her to calculate the teams output had a flaw and that we were deep in red not green like she was reporting.
