'I scanned... every receipt I could find': Scorned divorcee sends three years worth of finance documents to lawyer's office by fax machine

This lawyer picked the wrong dude to mess with. 

One person shared an excellent tale of malicious compliance that they got on their divorce lawyer. You'd think as a divorce lawyer, you'd have a bit of decorum. People are going through some of the most difficult parts of a relationship, and now they're also having to get a lawyer involved as they split up everything they own. 

This person, u/FederalAnt9, found themself in a "heated divorce/custody battle," and their ex's lawyer was prepared to go after them. Although this dude barely had any money (they couldn't even afford to hire their own attorney), the ex's lawyer was convinced the original poster (OP) had something to hide. It wasn't enough to provide financial information: this lawyer wanted that info in as much detail as possible. The OP was dismayed to find that this attorney now wanted a lengthy list of receipts to solidify what their income was. 

Even when this person called the lawyer to explain their complicated working situation, the lawyer didn't want to hear it. So this person did what they had to do! 

Next up, an employee was frustrated that their boss always answered questions with more questions, but after they called him out in a meeting, this worker is wondering if they pushed things too far.
