AITAH for getting my brother fired from our part time job after he kept throwing me under the bus?
My brother and I both worked at this small grocery store near our place. I got hired first and month later he joined because he said it would be chill working together. At the start it was actually kinda fun. Same shifts, free snacks sometimes, we would walk home together and complain about customers.
Then little stuff started happening. Missing price tags. Wrong change at the register. Stock not finished. Every time the supervisor asked what happened my brother would say stuff like oh I thought she already did it or she told me it was done. I would just stand there like ??? because I never said that.I kept quiet the first few times because I did not want family drama.
One day the manager called me into the office because apparently I “kept forgetting closing tasks”. I literally had pictures on my phone showing I finished everything. That is when I realized my brother was straight up blaming me whenever he messed up. I talked to him after work and he laughed and said relax it is not a big deal, they like you anyway.
Next week we had a huge delivery and it was his job to log half the boxes. He went on break for like an hour and when the manager came looking he said I told him to leave it because I was gonna finish it. I was on cashier all day and didnt even go near the stockroom. I finally got fed up and told the manager exactly what was going on and showed messages where he admitted skipping tasks.
After that the manager started checking cameras and watching shifts closer. Turns out he was late a lot and hiding in the back on his phone. A few days later he got fired. Now he is mad at me saying I snitched and ruined his income and my parents keep saying I should have handled it as siblings first. But I also feel like I just defended myself because I was the one almost getting written up for stuff I didnt do.
So yeah am i the asshole for telling the truth even though it ended with my brother losing his job?
