'He threw a temper tantrum': Coworker gets fired after other delivery drivers get back at him through malicious compliance

Have you ever had that one coworker who will manipulate every situation and use every tool and any loophole at their disposal in order to make sure that things always go their way? If you haven't, good for you, and please let me know how you've managed to avoid them for so long. These coworkers—Gary, let's call them Gary… Now, Gary is no dull blade; the ability to gaslight and manipulate your way through a team of people takes knowledge, brains, and skill. But Gary is often lazy, looking to avoid doing work whenever possible—or do the least amount of work with the most reward.

Well, in this case, Gary's name was Brian, and Brian is exactly the sort of coworker you don't want to work with using his stupid loopholes to profit off of his coworker's compliance with rules and fairness. Luckily, this would backfire spectacularly when his coworker sunk down to his level to fight in the mud.
