Burned Out Employee Gets Promoted

>completely burned out >show up 2 hours late at work for over a month now >no longer perform any secondary tasks nor do any administrative work >have talk with my manager, hope to get fired >"You're looking much better, more relaxed and like you're in charge of your work. I'm really liking the new you" What the fuck is happening

A crying, pixelated orange face accompanies a 4chan-style greentext about an employee who deliberately slacks off, arrives late, and hopes to be fired. Instead, the manager interprets the lack of stress and responsibility as confidence and improved performance, creating an absurd workplace punchline. It is sent as a reaction to situations where incompetence or burnout is unexpectedly rewarded.
