'Maybe he could fix... his attitude': Hotel maintenance worker scolds coworker for making a mistake while he was out, coworker maliciously complies

Every coworker has their preferred way of working, and part of collaborating in the workplace requires both parties to readjust in order to get the job done. This hotel maintenance worker wanted to be called when any little thing went wrong, even if it meant being called all the time for simpler tasks that other coworkers could rectify without him. This, of course, only made the work day more difficult and more time-consuming for the maintenance worker, but that's supposedly what he wanted.

Now, when he was out sick for two weeks to recover from a surgical procedure, other coworkers inevitably had to step in so as to not bother him while he was getting better. When the maintenance worker returned to the hotel, he was infuriated when a small shower shampoo holder wasn't up to his standards in terms of how it was installed. He erupted at his coworker, who shared this Reddit thread, which prompted some much-deserved malicious compliance.
