'[I told] her that I wasn't being suspended': Student stands up to Karen principal, proves her strict rules aren't in the handbook, gets suspension revoked
Who knew that sometimes being suspended isn't exactly a mandatory order? Personally, I was always too much of a "goodie two shoes" to test the waters, break the rules, and potentially get myself in trouble. As I've grown older, I have become less and less content with the various systems I have found myself trapped inside of, whether that be the system of higher education, the workforce, or the existential social system of what it means to be a human. In hindsight, a little part of me wishes I were more of a rebellious child, just so I could collect stories like this with repercussions that aren't actually that serious.

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit by u/felipe387, a Brazilian student whose high school principal went around enforcing ridiculously strict policies about lateness that could result in expulsion. The particulars of the rules always seemed inconsistent and unclear, so OP put them to the test by procuring his parents' copy of the student handbook and ensuring that his principal was enforcing rules that had been distributed to students. Otherwise, how would students know what to follow if they aren't explicitly written down? When the time came for a mandatory meeting with the principal in which she threatened to suspend OP, he came prepared with the rules that had been written down in the student handbook.
Keep scrolling below for the full story to see how the principal responded. For more content like this, check out this post about another student's malicious compliance.
