'That's not my job': New boss writes up employee for being 1 minute late to lunch after they refuse to complete tasks that aren't their job

One bitter employee who faced challenges at their workplace decided to take matters into their own hands.

They used to love working at their job. They had a great relationship with their boss, got their work done, and always felt appreciated. If there was an issue, they felt that their boss would find a way to accommodate them. Help was a two-way street. But when new management took over, things changed. The boss was demoted, and someone new was hired to take his place. She was less lenient, but above all, she asked the employee to do work that according to them, wasn't in their job description. Let's face it, that's annoying. If I'm a content writer (teehee) and I was asked to go fetch coffee for my boss, it would frustrate me.

Suddenly there was a petty back and forth, and the employee did whatever they could to hold their power. That didn't last long.

Here's a story about an IT team ignoring other employees' cries for help after they didn't use the ticketing system.
