'Phone must be off during work? You're the boss': Employees lose customers for hours after their bosses insist they turn off all mobile phones
Turn all phones off? Okay, if you say so…
Phones in the workplace are quite the divisive topic. You could argue that these days, people really need their cell phones to run their lives effectively. For example, if you're at work, but you get a call or text that your child is sick and you need to get them from school, having your phone on you is the best way to communicate.
On the other side of the coin, however, phones are so addictive that it's easy to get lost for hours browsing social media and chatting with friends. In the workplace, even a few minutes of phone time is too much for many bosses. This person's boss is no exception. They laid down the law — no phones at work whatsoever. Okay, whatever you say, boss.
This OP, u/Super-Monkfish, shared their tale of malicious compliance that took place when they worked at a betting shop. It was the morning of a big horse racing event when they decided to comply with their boss's rules, no matter how impractical.
