Employee organizes the files in the shared system, causing a fight between other workers for missing documents: 'They’ve started complaining in meetings that they "can't find their stuff" because they were so used to the mess.’

Good Samaritan or nosy worker who likes meddling in other people's business.  

Sometimes intentions are good, but the outcome isn't. No matter how great your idea is, you should consult your coworkers before meddling in the business and displace every document they use. In this Reddit story, the employee does seem to want to do good. He saw a problem and a solution so clear that he didn't stop one second to ask, or at least for advice, that he was going to change everything in the file system. I'm not sure if he's a genius or a moron.

That feeling you get when you find something in your workspace that is completely misused, cluttered, or disorganized is universal. Everyone has found that little –or big– thing that they know it would just take a few hours to solve, and it will change the complete management of the office. You have seen it, I have. The thing is that nobody has the time to take care of it, or at least nobody wants to take extra time to do it. The difference between all of us and this employee is that he took the time, every Friday in the last 30 minutes of his shift, to delete, organize, and clean the shared cloud.

The big deal began when people started noticing that the main documents that they use every day weren't where they were supposed to be, and others were simply deleted from existence. I actually think that this worker just got excited that he had found a way to fix an issue. Most probably, he thought of himself as a genius who was going to get a rise or some kind of congratulations for his hard work. Instead, he ends up being someone who has to stay in the shadows because his coworkers are mad at him. What he did is not wrong in itself. It's actually just really disrespectful that he didn't ask before deleting and changing stuff.
