The owner showed me the email and we had a good laugh. The employee had received the email in the final stages of documenting his poor performance and was let go shortly after all this.

I wonder if this is what the boss was hoping for? There have been a few times when I let my rabbit as* overload my bull dog brain and couldn't retrieve the letter sent.

No ... and it wasn't used as part of his dismissal. He wasn't even told that it got sent to the boss too.

The employee was even given unemployment. I'm not sure, but I think the owner could have used the email as leverage for denying unemployment, but didn't.

What the boss hoped for, was that the employee would quit on his own, since he was obviously disgruntled.
