In an unexpected turn at a chain coffee shop, a manager, overwhelmed by a grueling 100-hour work week, took a drastic step after being forced into unpaid leave. In an act of malicious compliance, the manager left and blocked all work contacts, leading to immediate chaos at the shop.
The coffee shop, already struggling with staff shortages and operational inefficiencies, found itself in disarray, and the folks in Reddit’s r/MaliciousCompliance community thoroughly enjoyed it.
