Employee Fired Over Technicality, Takes Back Their Own Property, Company Crumbles

Bad managers become reliant on good employees. As result, when they go, they leave gaping hole in the organization that no one seems to be able to replace adequately. This employee had not only done their manager’s job but had also purchased few necessary office supplies. 
When your employee leaves with their own shutter button, things get little more difficult at photography shop. This person was fired for an utterly ridiculous reason, which seems to align with the company’s principles. And, considering that the company folded just a few months later, it appears that this was the ideal time for this employee to go. It’s one of those situations where the work is satisfactory but the job could be improved.

1. OP loved to take photos so he joined a photo studio which was not a big one but he loved his work

2. The three-strike policy of the company was kinda brutal, OP already had to strikes, once by missing work and second by scheduling before shift started

4. Two complaints against the OP were enough to put him down, one customer felt she was forced to buying photos and another one tagged the OP bossy, two of them on the same day

11. The other employee apologized, thinking it happened due to her, and left the store too by stating her own gallery, that’s how the store went empty

What are your thoughts on this story? I think what the employee did was right because he was brutally handled and fired for things that were not so big. His passion for the store spoke for himself when everything had to be closed down after he left. Did you ever face such injustice and used malicious compliance to teach the other party a lesson?
