Nothing like doing exactly what someone tells you to do and having it backfire!
This thread was posted to Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit by u/Ancient_Educator_76, who should honestly go into short story writing after this brief but entertaining tale of getting back at a would-be thief at the Arizona convenience store where the Redditor worked.

We love when an ordinary day at work turns into an action-packed sequence where the little guy becomes victorious in the end. It's usually the stuff of fiction, yet this allegedly happened. The original poster also gets extra points for clever references to I Am Legend. For more stories of malicious compliance, take a look at this tale involving a trucking company firing its clients.
