This boss confused everyone by writing up her employee for "overperforming." 

If your boss doesn't like you, they might let you know it in a bunch of little ways. Maybe they try to embarrass you by pointing out if you're 30 seconds late, or they might try to get you to work late by guilting you into it. Other bosses start to micromanage your work. U/A-Truckers-Thoughts had that happen to them recently after they made a mistake on one delivery. They shared in a malicious compliance post that they have a rule about needing to take a quick photo of their delivery if they drop it off at a residential building. However, this one delivery was dropped at a business, but the OP still got a write-up after their boss tried to claim that the delivery was actually dropped at a residential address. "She wasn't having it," the OP writes. 

Now, OP is back with an update about their micromanagey boss, and people in the comments section loved it. You can check out the original story as well as the updated post down below. 

After that, read about these people's absolutely disastrous job interviews that went so badly, they just walked right out mid-conversation.

    Wanna discipline me for being right? I got you. M OC I work for a freight delivery company, drive a semi truck, and usually go out with 10-15 deliveries a day. Our policy is that when you deliver to a residence you have to take a picture with the work phone as an additional proof of delivery. That has morphed into now if the delivery receipt (dr) says "residential" you have to take a picture of it, regardless if it's going to a business or a house. There are so many small details on a dr that ca

    One day last week I have a delivery for "Laura Lopez" (Name changed). It was being delivered to a construction company that Laura is an employee of, the Dr does not say it's residential. I make the delivery and leave, no picture.

    Next morning my of a supervisor says, "I have a write up for you." Puzzled, I ask her for what. "For the Laura Lopez delivery yesterday, it was residential." I explain to her that it was at a business and the dr did not say residential. She wasn't having it, I should also mention that her and I...... heads often and she's been trying to get rid of me for some time.

    I told her that we need to go talk to my manager about it, so we do, and he sides with me because she has no ground to stand on. This infuriates her. I tell her that under no circumstances will this be an issue again.

    That day is when I start my mc. I take pictures with the work phone at EVERY STOP. What happens is when I hit depart on the work phone it sends a pop up to her computer with the picture and she has to acknowledge it before she can do anything else on her computer, I crashed her computer 3 times that day. At one stop I took 20 pictures.

    I get a call from her telling me that I have to stop taking pictures. I politely tell her that I'm covering my and not going against policy. "I'm giving you an order!" I laugh and hang up.

    Sure as she wrote me up for it. I don't even argue, I say we need to take it to my manager. I walk in and he says, "what now?" I tell him the story, he looks at her, takes the write up and rips it up. "Are you seriously writing him up for over performing?" She had no words, and I still take a picture at every stop because I'm petty lol

    *UPDATE* S OC https://www.reddit.com/r/MaliciousCom pliance/s/gUIN3zRz4y. ^ Link to original post ^ So after my original post many things have transpired. My terminal is getting a new classification, which means more freight, more jobs, positions switching around, etc.

    The of a supervisor is transitioning to a night position because, "No one respects me." Well, if you weren't such a pain in the maybe someone would.

    When she announced this today she looked at me and flat out asked me, "Are you gonna miss me?" My answer was short, simple, to the point, and in front of about 60 other employees, including my bosses boss: "Nope."

    She looked aghast. She looked surprised. When everyone burst out with laughter, she looked defeated. ....and you lose. I win
