Micromanagers know that the precedent they try to set will never come to fruition, likely because said precedent is so ridiculous that it almost feels redundant. This is how it usually goes down in the workplace. They say something, you disagree, and everyone's unhappy. Managers should be listening to their employees, not constantly requesting stupid things from them.

A lot of you know this type of manager all too well, we're sure. They set unbelievable expectations for employees who have enough to do around the workplace as it is, while they choose to sashay around town until the very last moment.
What do you do in a situation like this? Surely, the manager is protected. You can't say anything because your job might be in peril… You can always just, you know, lie. The manager is so hypocritical that they don't pay attention to detail like they expect their employees to do anyway…

This is a bit of psychological warfare, but it's a necessary evil if you think about it. The expectations set forth by the micromanager forced the employee's hand; They no longer want to engage with micromanaging behavior. How can you fix a wrong? Sometimes, you need to fight back with another wrong.
Now, this can't be said for everything in our lives, but some harmless lying can be just what you need to set the scene for a perfect revenge plot.
