‘You Won’t Be Paid for This Mandatory Meeting. Also, From Now on You Will Dress for the Job You Want’ : Nepo-Baby Company Lacks Code of Conduct, Micromanager Makes up Rules for Employees, Leading To Malicious Compliance
Micromanagers are suffocating bosses who don't trust you to get the job done and certainly don't trust you to get it done right. This one in particular, 'Sally', was working in a company that was known for its nepotism. The upper-tier management was made up of family members and close friends. The woman who posted the story about micromanagement that led to malicious compliance shared the tale on Reddit — where she gained a lot of sound advice actually.
See, this micromanager ordered the employees to attend a mandatory weekly meeting — unpaid. Which is illegal. So not only was this manager annoyingly bad at her job, but she was also incredibly entitled and delusional. Now, on to the dress code — the company had no written code of conduct. But Sally decided that from then on, the employees must 'dress for the job they want, not the job they have'.
Which is utterly ridiculous. You're basically admitting that the job they have is terrible. That doesn't exactly encourage them to want to stay there or put in any effort, Sally. Anyhow, what followed was a mix of some fun petty revenge, or rather, malicious compliance. Scroll down to read the detailed account. For more, you can also check out this tale of malicious compliance that has to do with the all-too-familiar attendance system. The employee got fed up after being micromanaged (I'm sensing a pattern here) and made sure to do exactly what his employer said — to a maliciously delicious T.
