Clever employee beats micromanager at her own play of power, micromanager caves to employees request to work from home

There are a few key elements to take into account when searching for a job. The salary is undoubtedly the first, followed by the employees in second place, and the boss in third.

The story below is an account of a frustrated and underappreciated employee. The Original Poster (OP) had worked for the same business for a considerable amount of time. OP enjoyed his job and loved his manager. However, as luck would have it, OP's manager resigned to pursue greater opportunities, and the manager appointed to take over for the amazing boss, was completely different from the prior manager in terms of her attitude, mannerisms, and strategic thinking.

So, be sure to read the story below if you're curious about what happened when the new hire showed up and whether or not OP succumbed to her ridiculous play of power! After you've finished reading, don't forget to check out the story of the mechanic who, after receiving orders to level the field 'no matter what', bulldozes an entire field and destroys army infrastructure!
