'You want me to intentionally break a client's computer?': Entitled sales associate tries to push coworker into fooling customer

This person is having difficulties dealing with both their coworker and their company's policies. 

When you work at a company, you quickly realize that you're seeing how the sausage gets made. It doesn't matter what type of industry: you'll quickly learn the behind-the-scenes secrets of your job, for better and for worse. If you start working in fast food, you'll learn how the sandwiches are made from start to finish. If you work at a call center, you'll discover all the behind-the-scenes scripts that reps follow. And if you're this person, you might discover some shady practices at a big retail chain, all spearheaded by a shifty sales floor associate. 

The unfortunate thing about discovering how the sausage is made at a company is that you don't have much say in how to handle the business practices. You either have to quit and find a new (better!) work environment, or stick with the company and abide by their shady rules. You can check out how this person handled their coworker's unethical practices in the excellent story they shared below. 

Up next, read about some employees who quit their toxic jobs on the spot, which surprised their bosses: "I really needed that job... but I didn't need to be treated that way."
