'Don't mess with Tech Support/Customer Service during the holidays': Call center rep agrees to help customer with false claim of damaged equipment

This person decided to try their luck with a customer service rep, and they picked the wrong person to trifle with.

As with many customer service calls, the customer called in and was already pretty upset with the circumstances. This dude requested a technician be sent ASAP, stating that he was having trouble doing business. As a business owner, no doubt that was a stressful scenario. We all know that that customers don't care why his business is being extra slow that day. All they know is that they'll take their cold hard cash elsewhere.

Scroll down to check out this great tale of malicious compliance (and a good reminder to treat your call center reps with respect and kindness).

Next up, this worker was seriously giving their manager a side-eye after the manager insisted they change all the dates in a massive and very important file.
