'I decided it was a matter of opinion': Boss makes casino workers where name tags stating their hometowns, cue malicious compliance

Why would any customer at a casino need to know an employee's hometown? People come to casinos for a very specific purpose. That purpose is not to make small talk with the employees about their childhood experiences or what their suburb looked like or what their parents did for a living. So how come this boss had the audacity to require employees to list their hometowns on their name tags in order to be able to make conversation with the casino customers? It's one of those ridiculous work policies that serves no real purpose and almost begs to be messed with… and man, did this employee find a way to maliciously comply!
