Nobody is saying that. You’ve been misconstruing people’s responses throughout this thread.

The bottom line is that both people can be in the wrong in a situation like this. The employee is not entitled to behave poorly because they have a bad manager and the manager is not entitled to behave badly simply because they’re a manager. However, the fact that neither party could do anything other than escalate the situation and even continue fighting battles after being fired is unprofessional behavior.

The manager however, is in a position of power over the employee, especially a contractor, and as such they should be held to a much higher standard.

They should be. But a Contractor is not generally in a position to hold a manager accountable. At some point; you have to know your role.
