'Yes, I will tweet exactly what you said': Social media manager maliciously complies with author's demands

Some clients aren't ever satisfied with the service they receive. Regardless of the industry you're in, some clients just can't be pleased — they'll always find something wrong with the product you deliver to them. Or worse, like with u/Gimlili's story shared to r/MaliciousCompliance, the client thinks they're better at your job than you!

Working in publishing with a job running the company's social media, this person said they encountered an author who was launching a non-fiction book. After creating a plan to tweet out different things at a scheduled time, the author disagreed with the way the OP wanted to tweet about the book. Not only did he disagree, he became a nightmare to work with, demanding that the OP post his tweets as is and as fast as possible. The OP was ready to teach this terrible client a lesson by using his own words against him. 

After that, check out the worst travel hack ever.
