Micromanager demands employee rush through a major inventory check, employee outs her when $1K+ of inventory is missing from the books and scores a bonus as a result

When a new higher-up meanders into your workplace, tensions might be running high. There's always a chance that this new hire thinks they know your job better than you do and as a result, attempts to rewrite all of your sure-fire methods to foster workplace efficiency. When will people learn that their managerial title does not mean they know more than their subordinates?

You can teach them a lesson in a myriad of ways, but one is definitely more fun than the other. Instead of trying to combat their lukewarm (and frankly, wrong) ideas, go with the flow. After all, they're the big ones in charge—whatever they say, goes!

In this next story, a retail micromanager insists that this employee should rush through an important inventory check for the sake of maximum efficiency. The employee simply follows her orders, which lands the company in hot water when thousands of dollars of inventory are missing from the books. If there's any time to point fingers, it's now. A cash bonus might be in the cards!
