'I woke up in an ambulance': Employee barely survives maliciously complying with overly strict water break rules; after heat-stroking, he inflicts epic OSHA revenge on his manager

'You gotta risk it to get the biscuit' may be one of the greatest tropes of all time for risk-takers, go-getters, and people who are known for absolutely sending it. Like the football legends of yore, skydivers on their first solo flight, or the self-proclaimed 'disruptors' of the world, this phrase is a basically a commandment. However, at what point are risks just jeopardizing your wellbeing? And what is the proverbial 'biscuit' even worth these days? Is it worth your life? One man recently risked a little too much for the sake of being petty and nearly lost his precious biscuit. 

Working in an unventilated hot box of a factory, OP was starting to feel the effects of the spicy summer days, while on the job one day. Aware that he had a health condition that made it challenging to self-regulate his temperature, he made his way for the door after feeling woozy, in search of a water bottle that could cure his boiling head. However, his boss noticed it wasn't time for his 15 minute break yet and ordered him to get straight back to work without water. Whatever you say, boss.

Angry and already delirious from the heat, OP decided to do exactly as he was told, pushing his manager's stubbornness and his own body to the brink for the sake of malicious compliance. Scroll for the full story of how this man might have woken up in an ambulance, but had a sparkle of OSHA-fueled victory in his eyes anyways.
