'I’m milking every minute to abide to your rules': Fast-food employee maliciously complies to manager's strict closing-shift rules and gets several extra hours of pay

Sometimes actually following the rules makes you more rebellious. That's right, it's called malicious compliance and it is a tasty form of protest. One person who works in the service industry at a fast-food restaurant played a grade-A malicious compliance tactic that actually had them getting paid more. 

They had gotten in trouble for starting their closing-shift duties early so they could leave earlier. The place closes at 9 and they didn't want to be there until midnight, so they would start a bit earlier, which we get them done closer to around 10 or 11. However, the manager caught wind of this and wrote them up. So they decided to do exactly what the rules told them to do. They didn't help with anybody else's closing duties any more, they only concentrated on their own. And they didn't start their closing duties a second before 9pm. And then once 9pm came around, they would take their time, making sure all of their closing duties were done properly. This had them staying until almost 1am, which means now, the company is paying them for several extra hours. When they were doing the closing-shift duties earlier, they were able to clock-out earlier. But since getting in trouble for that efficiency, they decided to make the company pay.
