One high schooler was upset by their teacher's policies, so they decided to follow his rules to the letter. Every teacher is different when it comes to keeping order in their classrooms. Some teachers have a million rules and stick to them strictly. Others have more relaxed policies, and only become strict when it's absolutely necessary. This high school teacher was very strict, and he wouldn't leave any room for error with his young pupils. That can be frustrating for kids, especially since th…

Guidance counselors are supposed to help you figure out your future, not hinder you. It seems like so often, guidance counselors just make things more difficult for their students. U/TacoJesusJr knows that firsthand, and they shared their experience in a post to r/MaliciousCompliance. Gym class is a polarizing thing. A lot of kids really dislike it, especially when you have gym class during first period. You find yourself kicking a soccer ball around in the dewy grass at 8 in the morning and th…

When it comes to picking your college courses , you don't have to go in blind. It's never been easier to vet your teacher before taking their class, thanks to the internet. There are specific sites dedicated to ranking and rating college professors. Current and former students can write on the teacher's profile to let future students know all the important details. That includes info about the course, the teacher's personality, the types of lessons, and how hot the teacher is. Yes, really. If t…

This teacher had no time for games. Instead, they had to give their student a giant F on their paper. Students have been trying and sometimes succeeding at cheating for millennia. Since the dawn of time, some kid will try to write answers to a quiz on their arm, or scribble answers onto their desk before a test. The popular cheating method in the mid-2000s was getting a Gatorade bottle, ripping off the wrapper, writing the answers down on the inside of the wrapper, and then putting it back toge…

One guy's donut shop job has an amazing perk---they get to bring home a couple dozen donuts at the end of every shift. This is a real perk for those who work at a certain donut chain, and I've experienced it first hand. The person who works there really is allowed to bring two dozen donuts home per day! The issue you quickly run into is that you probably don't know 24 people who will want to eat donuts. It's just you and your immediate family, or maybe some neighbors, versus a massive amount of…

High school memories arise from time to time, evoking mixed feelings, and causing me to wonder, why does anyone ever say that they are the best years of your life? The teachers never liked me all that much, being the hyper kid I was, who despised homework and could not focus for one minute in class, and the other students kind of bored me. Maybe it was the school itself, who knows? Perhaps others have had better luck. In any case, I can remember that when students broke the rules, the rest of t…

This prof is seeking opinions about how to handle a strange work situation. After all, sometimes it's hard to tell if you're just complaining about something annoying at work, or if it's a real issue that needs to be addressed. As if teachers don't have enough on their plates, this professor is carrying an extra large burden. U/Different_Pianist756 had a question for the internet users of the world: what would you do if you knew your coworker was doing something wrong? And not something small,…

Invisible disabilities, entitled people, and public transportation DO NOT MIX. Unless a disabled person is visibly crippled or maimed in some way, some folks simply don't believe that they're actually in need of special treatment. And nobody knows how to cause a scene over special treatment quite like a gaggle of Karens.

Bureaucratic bean-counting threatens every employee's work-life balance, for none more than the traveling salesmen of the world. To be totally frank, there's always a disconnect between the bean-counters of a company and the footmen because financial decisions are made in an office whereas the salespeople are out there in the trenches. The man in the field can see a bit more clearly than the man on the sidelines...

This college is not a fan of “meaninglessly easy” courses, so they put some rules in place to halt them. However, this posed a problem for this professor, Paul, whose students actually did too well in their college class. U/Positive-Character98 shared a story to the r/MaliciousCompliance community. The story belongs to the professor at their college,

Every once in a while, a great teacher comes along and defends his students by way of some glorious malicious compliance.

Who knew college professors could be so petty? One professor ended up in a malicious compliance situation after their coworkers tattled on them! Every professor has a different style of teaching. Some have been around for decades, and teach the same lesson plan every semester without fail. Others are newer to the job, and with many years of teaching ahead of them. At this college, in a story told by r/HeWhoMustNotBeNamed, a tenured teacher and a new teacher teamed up to blast the OP. It seems q…

They tried to sabotage her, so there's no reason why she shouldn't give these dudes a taste of their own medicine.

I don't see this ending well for the professor...

This story makes an argument for why siblings should never take a class together.

What a learning experience.
