This boss made the company look silly in front of clients. That's what happens when bosses think they know better than everyone else!

There should be at least one person in every office who knows what they're doing when it comes to computers. In bigger offices, there might be a whole branch of people who work in IT, while in others, it's just one dude named Joe who instructs you to turn your laptop off and then on again. No matter how big or small, business places across the globe would come to a standstill without their trusty office computer expert.

This person actually worked at an IT services store, so you'd think their boss would know a thing or two about computers. But instead, this boss seems oddly oblivious, while also making mountains out of molehills for his employees. As u/Etonaz wrote, their boss got upset about the operating system they were using after it was acting a bit glitchy. But the boss failed to realize that his employee was already aware of these issues, since it was, you know, that dude's job. In the end, this worker enacted some great malicious compliance---check out their entire story below.

Next up, this person is literally running a yoga studio instead of working…and their colleague is majorly fed up with taking on all of her extra work.
