Idiot Lieutenant Demands Salutes From Enlisteds, Entire Base Obliges at Once
This Lieutenant was sweating bullets after his command backfired, and he found himself returning the eager salutes of a long line of enlisted personnel in the Florida sun.
The story was posted to Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit by u/Stuckatwork271, one of the enlisted personnel who partook in this sweltering exercise of malicious compliance. They posted their story to the popular subreddit to share their brilliant story.
If there's anything that we have learned from Malicious Compliance, you should always be careful what you wish for. When you're dealing with dejected subordinates, they're like to take the most literal meaning of your command possible if they're able. If there's a second thing we've learned from Malicious Compliance, it's that enlisted personnel especially love to do this.
Commenters expressed their enjoyment of u/Stuckatwork271's tale. "Excellent MC. I salute you for it!" commented Redditor CoderJoe1, poking fun at the story's punch line. "Watch it buddy. I work for a living ;)" the original poster replied.
One commenter mentions that this is called "Salute Trapping." Is this a thing? Let us know in the comments!
