‘Empty everything? You got it!’: Employee cleverly complies with security guard's demands to empty everything in their bag, resulting in line holdup when more employees follow suit

No matter where you work, security checks are always important, and should not be taken lightly. We should be grateful that we are taken care of in that regard, and that we feel safe when we go to work every day.

That being said, security checkpoints can get a little bit annoying, especially if the guards there are not nice people. For example, the employee in this Reddit story found a clever and funny way to get back at a demanding X-ray guard at their place of work. OP (original poster) works for a company that requires going through a lot of security checkpoints, while also carrying a lot of electronics, which do not go well together. In one instance, OP removed every electronic item out of their bag only for the security guard to demand they do it again because they weren't paying attention. This led OP to come back the next day and remove absolutely everything from their bag, causing a massive line hold-up when other employees followed their lead.
