Bad Manager Takes Charge In Coup, Causes Time Card Mutiny

We see it time and time again: a completely nonfunctional manager seizes power through treachery only to rule with a stupid fist. In this case, it was the complete misunderstanding of having a functional pay logging system that tipped the people into a full-on revolt against the Red Queen. Redditor u/Curious_cat0070 posted to r/MaliciousCompliance to share how the Red Queen, a supervisor at their company, attached herself to another frustrating boss they called Dan the Dirty and inspected OP's office, wreaking havoc along the way.

The Red Queen wreaked havoc on how employees record their time worked on time cards in the office, even enlisting office spies who reported employees who took too-long coffee breaks. How ridiculous is that? OP said that they and others at the office combated this ridiculousness by altering their timecards so on paper, it appeared their entire days were spent filling out the very same timecard. While The Red Queen attempted to hide this malicious compliance, everything eventually caught up to her and she was fired.

For an amazing story of office malicious compliance, here's the saga of employees getting back at their unhinged CEO.
