Senior Coworker Forbids Touching Belongings, Leading To Playfully Malicious Compliance

In some workplaces, competition among employees can foster positive outcomes, strengthening bonds and a shared sense of purpose as they strive to secure clients or meet financial targets during their weekly grind.

However, in other offices, a different dynamic emerges, where colleagues find themselves in adversarial positions. This might be due to factors like a toxic boss applying constant pressure or coworkers burdening one another with late-night tasks.

In the case at hand, the employee was facing mistreatment from a senior coworker who seemed averse to collaboration, a fundamental aspect of most job roles. Such scenarios often occur in high-turnover workplaces, where seasoned employees may anticipate that new hires will quickly seek alternative opportunities.
