'I see the tow truck arrive and leave with the CFO's very, very precious Corvette': Secretary decides to follow conflicting instructions between their two bosses

A couple of corporate bigwigs have gotten into the habit of only speaking to each other through their secretary. Their secretary isn't even supposed to have that job… they've just gotten themselves intertwined in the workplace drama between their different bosses. Instead of just finding a way to communicate properly, they've made u/zanfar their go-between. 

As is the case with many workplaces, people will disagree on something and instead of trying to compromise, they'll just avoid that person indefinitely. If you've got a secretary, then you have just another way of delaying that inevitable confrontation. Any awkward conversations can be filtered through them and through polite "office speak" email jargon. But of course, you can only do that for so long without the consequences coming back to haunt you. It seems like the original poster handled this situation about as well as they could have… and commenters were delighted to read about this great malicious compliance scenario. Hopefully those two higher-ups learned their lesson!
