'Everyone finds out the trainee is actually incapable of doing the job': Boss insists employee stop blaming new hire for any mistakes, employee maliciously complies

Training the new person requires an endless supply of patience. They're going to have lots of questions, make a ton of mistakes, and they'll take up a lot of the time that you've set aside to do your own work.

It's also really rewarding to train a new person if they're learning at the right speed. But this person wasn't happy about their trainee. U/ForceAccomplished890 was training the person who was going to replace them! They knew that their boss really disliked them (never a good position to be in) and was hoping to push them out as soon as the new person was trained. So they threw up their hands and maliciously complied with their orders. People leave bad bosses, not bad jobs, and this person's story is a great example of that.

Some people choose to stay at jobs where they don't get along with their bosses, but it's better to leave before it becomes intolerable. It seems like multiple people in the company were mentally checked out already. As for this person, they heard their ridiculous orders and agreed to go along with them, no matter how impractical they might be.

After that, read about the tiny IT department that kept begging their bosses for new equipment, only to be told to rent it for thousands of dollars each month… whatever you say, boss!
