If you work somewhere long enough, you know all of the business's pressure points. And if you work at a coffee shop for 90 or 100 hours per week, you'd know exactly how to sabotage said business.
This work shared their malicious compliance story of the time they really got back at their boss. This person was a manager, but they found it hard to work because their bosses were breathing down their neck all the time. They "only cared about money," the employee writes. That can be a big red flag in a business: it means that the owners care more about their bottom line than their workers or products. It's hard to get excited for a job where the owners could care less about anything except that sweet sweet moolah.
The situation seems even more infuriating for the OP (original poster) because the owners decided to stop paying overtime while still blaming the employee for low sales numbers. With all that pressure, it was just a matter of time before the employee threw their hands up and quit.
After you check out this person's inspiring story, read up on some utterly terrible bits of advice people got, like one person who was told in earnest to "Invest in DVDs."
