r/maliciouscompliance | "YOU CAN'T WEAR COMBAT BOOTS AT NURSING SCHOOL!"

hello everybody welcome back to the storytime Channel my name is Steven and let's get into the stories of the day wearing combat boots during nursing school back when I was in nursing school we were supposed to wear black non-porous close toed footwear with non-skid soles for our clinical rotations that weren't Crocs most of my fellow female students wore classic nursing clogs like DASCO sand Sunita's I tried wearing clogs like this in the past and had rolled my ankles too many times to recall so I decided to not go that route for shoes I'm a military spouse a vet myself and have a fer mention pad ankles so my Footwear of choice was a pair of black leather tactical combat boots as a show of support and to make sure he always looked sharp at clinical my hubby always shined up in edge dressed my boots every evening before clinical the next morning the boots always looked professional they were comfy as heck I could bump my toes into beds without breaking a toe and I could wear them all day without having back pain foot pain or rolling an ankle the same could not be said for my classmates wearing more traditional shoes like clogs during the first week of my first semester I had an old school nurse as my clinical instructor I say old school because she believed female nurses should still be wearing crisp white uniforms with the stupid starched hats and that our profession lost prestige when we transitioned to scrubs this instructor got such a bee in her bonnet about my boots and decided that my boots were out of regulation that she threatened to take it up to the director and have me tossed from clinical thus failing the program there was nothing in the handbook specifically stating I couldn't wear my boots since I just stated Footwear which was black well-maintained non-skid and non-porous check check check check furthermore the pair of boots that I wore were meant to be worn by EMTs so they were waterproof blood-borne pathogen resistant puncture proof oil proof non-skid and had reinforced toes they were just as expensive as dance coat clogs and handle lots more abuse I knew I was in the clear and so I decided to keep on wearing them the day after the instructor commented on the inappropriateness of my boots she did a uniform slash shoe inspection to make sure we were appropriately attired I of course was wearing my nicely polished combat boots she failed me for the day based on my boots so I politely objected stating that my boots fell within the definitions of acceptable Footwear in the handbook she literally marched me to the director's office like I was a kid caught stealing cookies and demanded I get tossed for the boots failure to follow program rules and disrespect because I objected to her failing me the program director upon further close reading of the program regulations determined there was nothing that was wrong with the boots they adhered to the standards set forth by the program and that they were honestly safer than most of the shoes the other students were wearing because they were waterproof puncture proof non-skid and had reinforced toes she rescinded my fail and allowed me back into the clinical after that I heard not a peep about my boots from any of the faculty the rest of my program fast forward to graduation I had been wearing my combat boots since I started and had no intention of stopping especially since many of the vets that I cared for during clinical always reacted positively to them our nursing pinning ceremony the event where we receive our nursing school pins and are officially recognized as nurses has an all white dress code white uniforms starched white hats white closed toed Footwear the word footwear is key the dress code did not state shoes specifically and I knew this same which old bad nurse sees me in the hall and makes it a point to tell me that I'll have to get some real white nursing shoes to wear to pinning since I can't obviously wear my black combat boots because we needed to have white Footwear I politely smiled nodded said that I'd have white Footwear and went on my merry way and then more the all white dog Martin combat boots mile infantry husband bought me as a graduation gift to pinning the instructor stopped me after the ceremony and complimented me on actually getting nursing shoes at which point I pulled up the leg of my white scrubs and showed her my boots the look on her face was priceless I think that old school is probably a good way to describe this lady if you can think of any ridiculous shoe that fits the requirements here what would you propose somebody where to really get back at this old school nurse let me know in the comment section down below no shirtless posters okay fine I was recently reminded of this story after rereading through a saga of my ink steeped teenage Diaries so like most kids my childhood bedroom walls were decorated with posters celebrity pictures my own photo collages etc my older brother's room had posters up too but his were mostly of hot women you get the idea my dad had a collection of bikini calendars to which he had hanging in his workspaces the same ones were always displayed for as long as I could remember basically sexy bikini posters were never unusual around our house when I became a teenager I started following in my dad / brother's footsteps with my own sexy posters I started to rip pictures of shirtless hunks out of my monthly seventeen magazines and pin them up pretty soon the rules on our house started to change one day my dad said that I needed to take down all of the pictures of men in my room because they were inappropriate I pointed out that my brother was allowed to have photos of topless women so that was unfair dad reluctantly agreed and declared a new rule that no one could have topless photos anymore q my brother clearing his walls obediently but I wasn't giving up that easily I got some colored paper traced over each and every one of my many posters and created a fitted t-shirt istic over every topless due to my room the look on my dad's face when he came in to see all the well clothed posters was priceless with this alteration my posters were all allowed to stay up this went on for a little while but eventually my mom pointed out that while this nonsense was all very amusing dad still had his own calendars around the house that brother could easily go look at if he wanted to so it was actually still unfair for me she asked if my dad was planning to get rid of his photos too with this new rule by this point my dad was exhausted with the ongoing poster debate and irritated with how his own rule had turned on him he gave up the fight and stop censoring what I put on my walls after that I really thought when I read this title that it was gonna go from topless to the other direction and I really thought the story was gonna go somewhere then but honestly I never really got the appeal of hanging up posters like that am I am I the weird one for that I don't know start when I tell you I used to work for a place that set up a stall outside of a touristy area every morning mean one co-worker would arrive by bus at 8:30 and begin setting up the boss arrived a little before 9:00 with stuff to stock the stall now we still had leftover stuff from the day before that my coworker and I would have set out and usually sold a good chunk of already so it wasn't like we were twiddling our thumbs for half an hour and setting up just the stall took a few minutes as well the boss decided that one day he was sick of paying us to start at 8:30 when he thought we weren't doing any work so he said that we were not to vlog anytime before 9:00 the boss was an infrequent one that ran only once an hour so to be on time we still had to get there at 8:30 there was a little cafe nearby and so my coworker and I would go there to grab breakfast and sit in front of where the stall usually went the boss arrived closer to 8:45 the next day to see no stall setup and us just sitting there eating he was visibly upset that we hadn't started working for free and asked why we weren't set up he must have really been done because we aren't paid to start until 9:00 wasn't something he had thought of while he did all the work we would have done he grumbled by 9:00 he wasn't even done he hadn't even unloaded the day's stuff from his truck most likely from all the time he wasted glaring at us because it really didn't take that long now I love this job my dad was actually the head boss and would have paid both of us the half hour difference we just wanted to make this guy's life a little more difficult I would definitely upset me if we get there at a thirty we wait around until 9:00 and then the boss glares at us because we weren't doing free work that he said he didn't want to pay us for I think Opie and their co-worker was completely justified not sure if malicious enough but might telemarketer story four years after high school I got calls from the extended warranty marketers first than my Hyundai Accent until they scrapped it then on my dad's Honda Insight later on my Volvo s70 in my Hyundai Elantra so one day I finally started to comply marketer says hello sir this is about your offer to extend the warranty on your car I say yes sir please proceed what is the make and model of your vehicle Hyundai Elantra what year 2004 how many miles on the vehicle two hundred and fifty five thousand or so marketer hangs up in five years since they called me and haven't heard from them since not sure why he hung up I think I've heard that it's a bad idea to say yes on the phone with telemarketers for a number of possible reasons even though it sounds a little sketchy but telling them that you have all these miles is a pretty good way to actually get them to go away cheeseburger without cheese no problem another story I recently read triggered my memory about a little story of malicious compliance when I was studying a long time ago early 2000s I worked at a fast-food chain with the golden arches which formerly employed a clown probably this was why it attracted clowns who thought it was funny and creative to do purposely false orders like ordering competitors brands or odd numbers of chicken nuggets yeah boy really creative haven't heard this for a thousand times yet anyways my favorite was always the order of a cheeseburger without cheese everyone aware of the range of said restaurant chain knows that a cheeseburger without cheese is a plain hamburger otherwise you know it now there was a price difference between the two burgers of maybe 20 or 30 cents so here comes the malicious compliance the registers to that time had already been able to process individual requests like no cheese and transfer it directly to the kitchen staff I don't think that the no cheese option was intended for simple cheese burgers but it worked and it doesn't reduce the item price to the price of a plain hamburger so every time a clown would order a cheeseburger without cheese I would ring this up instead of the plain hamburger of desire no other tiny retaliation ever felt so good at least one time a clown evolved to a Karen and complained to the supervisor however after explaining what the customer ordered he /she even confirmed this to the supervisor my supervisor concludes that this was exactly done by textbook and nothing was done wrong I quit anyway as soon as I got a better offer you might jokingly want some lettuce so you say you want a Big Mac but remove everything but the lettuce don't be surprised when they still charge you for the Big Mac that's at least my take on it plus the people who take the orders are not paid enough to have to put up with that kind of stuff bad orders are still orders bad orders that don't get you or others killed or in trouble are four ripe malicious compliance during basic training for the Air Force we had a temporary assistant T I never call them the junior TI we were going somewhere one day and we had just started marching out of our squadron we came up on the exit and instead of ordering us to turn left he called out column right so we turned right which had us marching directly into a wall where we stacked up like an old comedy movie marching in plays the T I screamed at us what are you doing pointing at a random member of the flight name why did you do this sir you called column right sir no I didn't and continued to yell at us at no point did he tell us to stop break formation and reform pointing the way we had been going so there we are marching in place getting yelled at finally a senior TI from another flight comes up tells our TI to stop yelling takes command of us halt break reform over there and wait he and the assistant TI walk away that was the last we saw of that TI eventually another TI came up to us asked where we were going and to command and got us there over dinner we found out there were two other flights behind us several TI is in the squadron senior NCO the reason we were left for five minutes getting yelled at was because the t eyes are all laughing too hard to properly fix the situation the only reference our senior TI made to the event was the point to one of the members of the flight if i ever give a boneheaded marching command you have permission to speak up with a big loud sir sir yes sir the TI shouldn't have been too stubborn if everybody in the squadron turned right to face the wall then very clearly he must have made a mistake and he should have been able to understand that and reform the situation but they didn't and they got yanked but with that being said that's all the stories we have for today so what I want to know is which of these stories is your personal favorite of the day and why let me know which story and why in the comments section down below and thank you all so very much for watching and listening to the storytime channel today if you
