Who said complying with the rules can't be a little fun? One employee told their story of their coworker's malicious compliance when their bosses started demanding they label every little thing.
Food service workers have a lot to juggle. This person, u/Dra5iel, shared that they and their coworker both worked at a restaurant chain. Along with prepping food, cooking it, plating it for customers, and cleaning up, back of house staffers have enough on their plates already (pun intended!). When the OP broke the news that the employees would now have to start labelling every little thing, it wasn't exactly what they wanted to hear.
When I was in food service, we had to print out labels, and we had to search manually for each food item. You'd have to scroll through dozens of options to find the proper stickers. Even if there was a line of customers out the door, someone had to label that the yogurt parfaits would expire in two days. The OP in this story is correct that when you use up the food quickly, slapping a sticker on a pack of burgers or rolls seems laughable. Too bad auditors don't care about that---they need the restaurant labeled properly, or else.
Next up, these employees decided to overshare on social media, and their bosses found out what they'd been sharing.
