'Don't take advantage of a nice thing or it may go away', said u/tKLogicTA, who revoked his employees' privileges after they managed to finish 400 bags of chips in 3 weeks. Let's start at the beginning. OP opened a shop about 10 years ago, where he was working as a full-time mechanic. As time went on, he allowed himself to lay back a bit and relax. Taking on a more entrepreneurial role, he began broadening his horizons, acquiring more properties and businesses. He still made sure to visit the s…

Imagine working hard all day, only to watch your boss goof off all day. That's what this employee had to deal with with their boss Shannon, who believed she was above everyone else at her job. Shannon had an ideal workday. As OP writes, Shannon spent most of her days slipping out of the office for “meetings." These weren't actual meetings spent with clients or colleagues, discussing strategy or planning for the future. No, instead, Shannon spent her time grabbing long lunches with her friends,…

Work is certainly not a hobby and a paycheck is a standard expectation from your boss every two weeks– it's honestly the bare minimum requirement that we ask of them. In this case, a diligent employee was fuming after months of reminding his boss to write him his salary checks– he used this fury to fuel a fiery resignation.

Malicious compliance can quickly get ugly and lead to you getting fired… if you're not careful. This employee made sure he had a long paper trail to cover his own tracks when the inevitable ‘You’re fired' meeting arrived. He made sure he had someone to point the finger at, and in this case, it was his boss, who didn't hesitate to throw him under the bus when HR got involved. The employee worked at a call center that had a ticketing system they used to escalate cases to different teams. Sometime…

I swear teachers are the most disrespected people...

Well, it worked.

Fired, you say?

It could happen any which way.
