Working when your boss is looking over your shoulder is not only irritating, but makes your productivity way worse. Obviously work speed is going to suffer when you have a nepo-baby clipboard-poker breathing heavily at your back and judging your every move, but for some reason, management never gets that concept. Working from home has spiced up this managerial/employee struggle even more and micromanagers everywhere are writhing with discomfort about the fact that they can’t see what everyone’s up to at all times. One work-from-home employee recently got fed up with his company’s micromanagement and turned the tables on their own game by playing the rules to a T.

With this simple malicious compliance, OP put his manager in his place and gave him exactly what they asked for– and more. Scroll for the full juicy details on how this employee wasted company time by going above and beyond.
