Cheap Company Sends New Employee to Replace Software Department, Gets Schooled on the Difficulty of Their Jobs
A big problem in a lot of businesses is that they don't really understand what their employees do all day. Ask any member of upper management to give a detailed description of what one of their minor subordinates does, and they would probably struggle. This is part of the reason that so many people see their hard work go unrecognized (well, that and the fact they don't want to pay anyone more).
It can lead to some pretty frustrating misunderstandings, and even some grave mistakes. Of course, it's usually the lower ranked workers that are expected to be on the receiving end of this.
One of many people who has had to experience this first hand is u/Edymnion. When a company they used to work for got taken over by a bigger organization, their team was sent a fresh employee meant to absorb their knowledge and allow them to lay off a number of more established people. So, they found a way to make the process as tricky as possible.
Posting the story to r/MaliciousCompliance, Redditors celebrated the canny way in which everyone had saved their jobs. 'Learn to code' isn't always such a simple command.
