r/Maliciouscompliance Want Me To Obey You? LOL OK! 😊

welcome to our slash malicious compliance where a student outsmarts a principal I work in a small local pet store where we sell crickets we sell cricket cards they're basically a card that has a given 250 crickets the cards are 20 bucks and you save quite a bit of money by using them customers would tell us how many crickets in what size and we would go get them and scratch off the amount of crickets wanted the bugs are bought in increments of 10 so someone couldn't get 15 crickets but had to get 10 or 20 one day I had a lady come in and asked for 20 large crickets I ran and got them and handed the bag of crickets to her she stares at the back for a few seconds and almost immediately blows up yelling about how I tried to rip her off giving her less crickets than she ordered and all that she said she wanted to get exactly what she paid for she wanted me to count them fine I grabbed a pair of tongs and another bag and counted she got 24 bugs I apologized and took the extra for crickets she started yelling that she wanted the extra few crickets I just looked at her and trying my hardest to keep a straight face told her you get exactly what you paid for she turned a maroon color and stormed towards the door she didn't know this but we have two separate entrance and exit doors she tried to exit the entrance door I told her that the other door would let her out and have a good day I haven't seen her since our next reddit post is from dr. Octagon opus this actually happened in 2006 in my sophomore year of high school we just gotten a new principal that year and he decided to completely change the dress code one of the new rules was that any male who wore pants with belt loops absolutely had to be wearing a belt it was nearing the end of the year and him and I had already had a few run-ins which turned into him looking for any reason to write me up I'm not saying that I was an angel or anything but most of it came from me not being intimidated by him and standing up for myself when I honestly hadn't done anything wrong I overslept one morning and was in a rush and when I got to school I realized that the shorts I was wearing had belt loops and I'd forgotten to wear a belt I didn't really care as the punishment for dress-code violations was always a warning unless it was reoccurring and I never done this before when we were changing classes I by the principal in the hallway and noticed him looking at my beltless pants I really didn't feel like dealing with him at the moment so I slipped around the corner into the swarm of other students before he could call me out when I got to my next class immediately the intercom came on it was the principal making an announcement telling all teachers to check all boys pants and send any boys breaking dress code to detention for the rest of the day this really ticked me off because I never broken dress code before my pants weren't sagging and most importantly I wouldn't be eligible to play in our tennis match after school if I got detention luckily my teacher wasn't in the classroom yet but I knew that I wasn't getting out of it that easily in a hasty decision I ran to the teacher's desk took her pair of scissors and cut every belt loop of my pants much the amusement of my classmates the teacher came in a minute later completely missing the announcement but sure enough the principal sticks his head in the door about ten minutes later after obviously noticing my absence in detention he tried to play it off like he came to talk to the teacher about something and just so happens that moment to notice my pants with the smuggest look on his face he said Opie did you wear a belt today no sir well why aren't you in detention I stood up and revealed my newly tailored pants and said because I don't have belt loops sir most of the class is losing it at this point and if looks could kill I'd be dead there was nothing he could do because no one would admit that I had just cut them and the rules clearly stated that it was only against dress code if your pants had loops this wasn't the end of our run ends but I at least won that round our next reddit post is from getting a tenth I just moved to Sydney and I've been living in a share house for a few months that I found through a flatshare website we got on okay would go out to parties together etc most of the stuff in the house was theirs I only brought my fridge and they just thrown theirs out considering it replaced I'm about to get the week's groceries and ask my housemate if she wants anything no she's good I get lots of food to cook for the week and come home to find her standing awkwardly with her boyfriend she had weird news they decided to move out together how exciting okay so I guess that means I take over the lease nope they considered themselves the last in a long line of friends who'd leased the house and being the last to go thought it fitting to terminate the lease they notified the landlord prior to speaking to any of us they figured I could stay with my sister Jack was only in the country another month and Sarah was hardly here anyway okay so I didn't have a leg to stand on legally I wasn't signed on the lease so I had three weeks to vacate house hunting is like a part-time job and I already had a full-time job no time to cook all that food I guess would have been good to know before I went shopping I got lucky and found a house just down the road on the same day nice people good spot and close enough that I could move my things in by hand immediately if I like I slept in my new house that night but I always like to think you haven't really moved in and tell your fridges in and don't worry I had that sorted out to the others in the house found new places quickly too leaving the happy couple home alone I came back to pick up a couple loose ends three weeks later and got to see their fridge workaround and all its slum lis glory an esky full of food floating in melted ice the revenge was Petty and small but proportionate to their actions our necks rated postage from Jacobus so I'm a software developer at a large company with about 1,500 employees my official position is a software developer but since I've got quite a bit of experience and a somewhat non-standard skillset for this position I've worked as a Linux admin and a DevOps engineer for around two years I often get asked to do other things and just write code I absolutely don't have a problem with that and even quite enjoy doing other things from time to time to break the monotony or rather I did until one of the Hyatt managers noticed my particular skill set and started asking me to help out on other projects that were short on people at first I didn't really mind but eventually it evolved into a situation where I would be reassigned to a different project every single week a project change for me would mean downloading all their code setting up the whole building develop environment and getting familiar with said project and then finally being able to do some work this would usually take at least a day I've tried talking to many different managers to try and do something about this because it was starting to affect my performance reviews to no avail some of them would tell me they would look into it others wouldn't even bother to reply to my emails and that's where I got really fed up now our project team usually sits together we have multiple large open space offices and a few smaller ones with just a few people I'm one of the lucky ones who gets to sit in one of the small ones and I usually wouldn't physically move for these team changes because then I would be moving every single week on a Monday morning as usual I got an email basically saying this you're needed on project XYZ immediately go over there to help them as soon as you can the immediately and go over their parts are where they made a fatal mistake I've always been one not to take flak from anyone and malicious compliance is my default so I immediately took the hint and did exactly what I've been asked to do I stopped working on my current project immediately this will be very relevant later and even though I usually wouldn't have done this I decided to physically move to the team I've been reassigned to so for the rest of the day I made a big spectacle of trying to move my entire workspace closer to that new project team making sure to only carry one thing at a time as not to injure myself it was to an office on a different floor and the other side of the building the next morning I just started working on the new project like nothing happened well a fast forward three weeks the project I've been taken off of has had huge delays and missed multiple client deadlines because of that thing I haven't been allowed to finish in this industry missing a client deadline means huge fines from both the client and sometimes also relevant government regulators managers started to reply to my emails and try to be much more careful with how they worded their requests I haven't been asked to switch projects for three weeks now I'm not worried about getting fired I've been looking for something new for quite a while now down in the comments master mad sums up this frustration quite well quarter one Foreman's report you need to be more company minded and focused on helping with projects when requested quarter two performance report you need to be more focused on your own tasks and not be distracted by side projects quarter three performance report you need to be more company minded and focus on helping with projects when requested quarter four performance report you need to work harder overall unless coming into the office shouting a few guys I've had it with your incompetence I found a new job where they appreciate me I quit also we haven't seen you around since then much maybe work on showing your face more and being approachable hello our next reddit post is from core Hakka I work in a small shop that fixes computers for people this woman came in on a Tuesday and asked for us to fix her laptop sure no problem took a brief look at it to assess what's a likely fault probably a case of replacing the hard drive and reinstalling Windows so I quoted her up to four working days to be completed as we usually work on things in the order they come in she agrees to this and didn't pay for the fast service we offer which would probably have been next day in this case anyway come Thursday she comes in expecting her laptop to be fixed I tell her I'll check if it's been done yet having a look I find it still on the shelf but it's next in the queue to be looked at so I tell her this at this point she goes effing ballistic saying that she needs it fixed to do her self-employed job and that she cannot do work without it I tell her if she wasn't it done urgently she should have brought it in on a fast service but I can upgrade it right now and get it done either by the end of the day or tomorrow morning she storms off and saying she isn't paying anything extra alright not paying any extra I suppose that means she wants to standard speed then I started working on it later that day but then left it in a corner because I wanted it to be dry to take it outside and clean out the CPU fan it was filthy I timed it so that we notified her it was complete at about thirty minutes before closing on the fourth working day Monday complying with what was agreed despite the fact that the laptop was basically completed around Friday lunch time she couldn't get it before we closed what a shame and picked it up on Tuesday a full week after she brought it in I met mind of the agreement to the letter for customers who don't complain and shout at me I usually get it done faster than agreed I had one recently where I'm supposed to quote him about three days but he was nice and we had a friendly chat for a while while I told him to come back in 30 minutes as it was a model I was very familiar with and I knew I could do it there and then our next reddit post is from lesbian mousse I was working for a childcare center while I was in college we stagger staff in and staggered them out so that we were always fully staffed when the kids were there and they all had various arrival in leaving times the staff could be scheduled to arrive any time between 7:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. I worked Monday through Friday 8:30 to 4:30 even though my schedule was fairly permanent I would check the schedule that got sent out every Sunday evening it would always get sent between 6:00 and 9:00 p.m. and it would be for the current week so we had less than 24 hours notice for our weekly schedule a hot mess Express if you ask me but I'm not in charge and my schedule said so I don't raise too much hell about it one week I get the schedule and it says my arrival time is 9 a.m. instead of my usual 8:30 for the entire week I figure they're just trying to make minor cuts and they really like having everyone under the full time threshold so I just assumed they were barely cutting my hours they could get away with it no big deal but I knew that most of the kids arrived at 9:00 so I wouldn't need more time to set up I get there at 8:45 on Monday and set up quickly and go about my day I do a little prep Monday night so I don't have as much prep in the morning so on Tuesday I get there at 8:50 5 o'clock in and begin my day my week goes on like that with me prepping in the evening and getting there at 8:55 until Thursday when my boss calls me into the office and reprimands me for my tardiness I tell her the schedule tells me that my arrival time is 9 so I'm actually arriving early every day she says that the schedule says 9:00 just to indicate that you're the morning shift but if you're scheduled for classroom time you need to arrive at 8:30 regardless of what the schedule says so you had time to set up the classroom I don't agree with this at all and it's obviously not true because not everyone arrives at 8:30 anyway there has to be more distinction than just morning crew versus afternoon on the schedule but she admits that she's partially to blame for the mix-up and doesn't turn into a formal write-up I start arriving at 8:30 every morning just like I had been before the week in question I'm not a late person one week I was going to be scheduled for the 1/2 630 shift because another coworker needed to switch with me and we'd both agreed to this so the schedule comes out and says my arrival time is 1:00 p.m. I arrive at exactly 8:30 o'clock in and sit my pretty butt in the office Jer and wait well eventually my boss notices that I'm just hanging out in the office and asked what I'm doing I say well I was told to arrive promptly at 8:30 no matter what the schedule says so here I am she says we don't need you here for the morning so you can clock I don't come back when your shift begins um nope I say you can find a task for me to do until my shift starts at 1:00 or I can sit here but I'm staying clocked in you were the one that said I had to be here at 8:30 no matter what I'm just following your instructions I had to deep clean the entire school until my shift actually started but it was so worth it because I still got paid for the whole day and my boss had to admit to me she was full of it watching her try to backtrack was the funniest thing that's ever happened to me so clearly what this manager was trying to do was to get you to come in at 8:30 but only pay you starting from 9:00 I'm pretty sure she was just trying to steal a half-hour of work from you our next reddit post is from mm SOR 35 years ago when I was a waitress in a diner a family came in and each ordered a meal there was a kid about maybe 12 years old and with his meal he ordered a small drink times have mostly changed now but back then free refills weren't a thing you got your drink but you had to pay for a refill don't remember how much it cost it was 35 years ago so I brought out the drinks and the kid was kind of snotty going on about how he'd ordered a large drink not a small drink he hadn't done that and normally I wouldn't mind switching it but his unnecessary rudeness irritated me so I went back to the drink station poured the tens of his small drink into a large cup and then packed it to the top with ice didn't add a drop more soda he seemed a pretty convinced he'd won the battle when I came back with his large drank but I think I walked away having won the war that was our / malicious compliance and if you liked this video then let me know by hitting that
