'I... start calling in absent "just in case"': Employee calls in absent for work every single day for 11 years after bosses scold them for being 22 seconds late
Every lateness at this company equals one point… and if you gain enough points, you'll be fired. This employee took their system to heart, and decided they couldn't risk gaining any more points.
Anxious people will completely understand this story. The employee explains how they were under a minute late, yet still received a point for being "late." The computer systems don't care if you're one second late or five minutes late, it's all the same to the employer. So then the employee decides to be early instead. If your workplace is especially strict about tardiness, sometimes you just have to admit defeat and start getting on the road earlier in the mornings. In the best case scenario, you might just get there early enough to plan out a coffee run or explore the neighborhood you work in. Just saying… from years of my own anxious experiences.
Scroll down to check out the entire story from u/ChiefSteward, as they told to the Malicious Compliance community. And up next, this hotel employee's boss told them they didn't care how they did the job, just to get it done, so the employee turned 8 hours of work into a single button click.
