Instead of getting to know his new coworkers, one new manager thought he had a better approach. According to u/atomb*mb1945, he started "getting into things that weren't his business and things he didn't know about."
That's exactly what you don't want to do as you're starting a new job. It isn't going to make a good impression on the current workers if the newbie comes in on day one and starts telling them they don't know how to do their own jobs. It looks presumptuous and pompous on his part. And no doubt his new coworkers started talking about him behind his back. The better option would've been to introduce himself and ask them about their jobs, but some people feel that acting authoritatively is the only way they'll get respected by their peers.
You can check out this fun tale of workplace malicious compliance, plus comments from people who related to the story. (As one person wrote, it's wise not to mess with old folks!) After that, people revealed the foods they will simply never eat again, like one person who wrote that their sister's lasagna tastes "more like beef mince and pasta sheets drowning in tomato water."
