‘I quit... taking the techs with me’: Fleet foreman quits after new manager takes over, leading to rest of employees jumping ship en masse

These employees jumped ship en masse after new management dug their heels a little too deep in the ground. One worker led the rest of the employees who worked as technicians to another company. 

The result should have been obvious to the new manager in hindsight, but hey, 20/20 always comes after everything goes to shambles. What happened goes as follows… OP was working as the foreman at a food distribution company with a fleet of about 100 units total. 

The company hired this new guy who had no idea what he was doing, and did not have a clue in regards to managing time, which led to so much extra work, it was a sad waste of time. This led to that, and suddenly OP found himself sitting in a meeting with HR, being scolded for 'insubordination'. OP did not appreciate that very much, and took action against the company, leading to everyone else quitting. Scroll down to read this delicious story of malicious compliance unfold. Then, a choosing beggar who tried to get a seller to spend way more money than he had to when delivering an item. Some people were never taught manners, and it shows.
