r/Maliciouscompliance How I Made $120,000 By Following the Rules 

What would you do with an extra $120,000?

After Saul complained to Bob, I would've dragged Saul to Bob's office then have Bob explain the deal to him. Then I would drag Saul to HR to file a complaint of harassment. Apparently Saul has a hearing problem with people below him.

Sethbrof's boss took the diplomatic approach. If I was his boss, I'd back him up and let Saul go to HR. When HR calls us in, I would've said the same thing Sethbrof said: "We're doing our jobs by fixing these machines, does Saul have that much free time on his hands?".

Considering how that Saul guy is so obsessed with reporting people to HR, someone should report HIM to HR for fostering a hostile work environment over a coffee maker of all things.

Saul: *"Don't steal company property!"* OP: *"It's mine, I brought it from home."* Saul: *"I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that."*

That was the WORST handled coffee pot situation I've ever heard. Absolutely terrible management. Let's just abuse staff and expect and make them pay for not only their own coffee but others as well. When other managers try to bully them into disadvantaging themselves, let's not correct that piss poor manager, let's turn it back on the staff to regulate.

As we speak, that coffee maker is making a post on r/IDontWorkHereLady

The coffee story made me soooo upset. I definitely would not have brought my coffee maker back to work. The company needs to provide one or the employees who want it can chip in to purchase one. I would have ripped into Saul the first time. Those people are ungrateful, entitled, and thieves. 🤬🤬🤬

I actually don't like how the boss handled that coffee situation, that supervisor was completely out of line and should have absolutely been put in his place hard. If hes that unreasonable over something like that, I don't want to think about the poor decisions hes making about important things.

The coffee maker one made me sooo mad!! The second I took that home, I would leave it there and refuse to bring it back

Trying to get a guy in trouble for taking back his own property?? Seriously Saul go to Dunkin from now on.

"But mother, it IS tomorrow." This is the level of pettiness that I one day hope to aspire to attain.

I had the same kinda situation as the coffee maker but with a bluetooth speaker in a kitchen I worked in years ago. I used to leave it there 24/7 that way I wouldn’t forget it for work & other employees could listen to the music they wanted instead of just finding a crappy channel on the old ass radio. One day we got a new cook who was super ignorant, she’d do everything she could to get people in trouble, blackmail them over the dumbest things, etc. I had a few days off planned for the beach & I decided to take my speaker with me because it’s mine & I want it for the beach, however because I’m a nice person I left an aux cord for the radio so everyone could still play the music they wanted. When the ignorant new girl found out she immediately texted me saying she was gonna tell the boss I stole the kitchens speaker & now they can’t play music, I told her you can play music I left an aux cord, she then went on & on about how it was rude of me to leave them an aux cord because she can’t walk around with her phone, it has to stay by the radio to play music & that the radio was old & crappy. What she didn’t know is the radio was mine too LOL I brought it when I first started 4yrs earlier & eventually brought my speaker in cause it was newer, better sound quality & I used my aux for the car. After explaining to her that everything in that kitchen that played music or helped play music loud enough so you could hear it over the equipment (radio, speaker, aux cord) was mine, I told her if she didn’t like it don’t use it & she replied with I won’t use your shitty radio, speaker or cord. I called my boss who for years wouldn’t let anyone play music cause he thought it was distracting & told him about her behavior, I asked him to take everything away on her shift & her shift only. The next day my phone starts blowing up from the ignorant employee asking where everything is & I said in the most Condescending tone “I thought you weren’t gonna use my shitty stuff” she says I’m not I just wanna know where it is, I maniacally laugh & hang up. Needless to say she didn’t work there much longer after I took everything away from her. The one thing I never understood was why treat me like shit when I’m the one who supplies everything & also when I went out of my way to leave an aux cord so she (& other employees) could still listen to whatever they wanted while I was gone? Like bitch it’s my stuff, just because I’m not there doesn’t mean I can’t make it disappear. 😈🤣 Thanks for reading! ❤️

"But mother, it is tomorrow"

“Hello HR, i’m calling to report an employee for taking their property home” “Hello? Are you listening?” “I’m reporting you to Bob for this!”

Someone once at work told me to do something with a system that I knew would break the system, he pulled rank on me, so I asked for written instruction from him, he sent it, I broke the system with his request, his arse got chewed out by the high ups. He was soon reassigned to a less critical role.

Something tells me that Mother wasn't taught "Time" when she was in school as a kid. Also, Just because an Employer brings their own Coffee Maker to work then takes it back home after so much time, that does "not" mean the company owns it, and lying to the boss about an employee stealing company property even though it was "theirs" to begin with is "not" smart. Moral of the Story kiddies: If you want coffee that badly, bring it in your damn self. You've got the money.

The “but mother it is tomorrow” was the ultimate uno reverse card

I was actually taking a sip of coffee when rslash read “I had a surgery that prevents me from sh*tting out creamer” and I now have to scrub my rug because of it 😂

So his friend and now boss basically said just keep getting harrassed by Saul so I dont have to have the headache of dealing with it...wow

The last post reminded me of a story that my grandmother once told me: she asked her mother if she could walk over to her friend's house, to which the mother said no. At this point my grandmother put on her roller skates and skated over to her friend's house. Her mother was pretty mad when she got back home... "But, I didn't walk to her house, I skated!"

I would have called the cops saying there is someone claiming to be my landlord breaking into my apartment and my dog has the guy pinned. And it certainly couldn't be my landlord because the law says he supposed give me two days notice. AND I certainly wouldn't have given in on the coffee.

He's a lot nicer than I would've been. Just because his boss didn't want to be "inconvenienced" with a company email he wanted me to bring it back? No thanks haha let that moron Saul complain to whoever he wanted.

The coffee one makes my blood boil, because I've seen similar cases throughout my entire life of working at retail, fast food establishments and at offices.

If I'd been told to bring back the coffee maker, I'd have insisted on it in writing and then used that as a justification to bill the company for renting my coffee maker.

Saul: Don’t steal company property! OP: I brought it from home. It belongs to me Saul: *LIAR!!!*

Saul sounds like your typical corporate bully, trying to pressure you into doing something or else they'll turn it into a company-wide disciplinary issue. I bet he was the one taking all the money out of the tip jar as well, and on top of using all the coffee supplies without restocking it himself it makes him an even bigger thief. That's why you should always make sure to gather evidence as soon as you notice someone starting to use your personal property without compensation. In this case, set up a camera to film who's using the coffee maker if at all possible, collect audio recording of every accusation, make a list of the supply stock and the tipped money with timestamps etc. Then just go to HR with all the evidence before the bully does.

Sign: Wet floor Me: Dumps water on floor.

If entitled D-bags have taught me anything, there is a 100% chance that Saul has threatened someone else's job. Telling them they need to restock the coffee or they'll be fired.

"But mother, it _is_ tomorrow" I lost it 🤣

The coffee guy shouldn’t have brought his coffee maker back OR he should’ve asked the company to buy it off him. Boss Friend didn’t really help his friend. Just cause you don’t want to deal with the BS doesn’t mean you should short change your friend. Should’ve called them both into the office and clarify that Coffee maker was the OP’s personal property. Basically entitled guy still gets what he wants just for complaining while yes OP still gets coffee it still doesn’t make this right -.- this wasn’t even MALICIOUS compliance. It’s just Compliance. I felt like most of these were compliance and not particularly malicious. Malicious Compliance is still my favorite though! I just think that coffee one could’ve been handled better this happened to me (maybe that’s why it bothers me? Idk) and I eventually lost my stuff cause everyone who knew it was mine was already gone.

For Bob telling him to just bring HIS coffee maker back to avoid making Saul mad and filing a complaint I would have been livid..I would have ended any good term with Bob and brought back coffee maker as well as stocked all supplies back..except the sugar would have been PURE Miralax ( clear, tasteless laxative)..as far as the coffee goes, well I think some ground up dried dog turds, just a small amount so no smell..the coffee would mask any smell anyway, in fact, coffee beans in a dish have been an old realtors trick to make a home smell better...then I would have invited Bob to have coffee as well..LMAO..Some folks just don't know how to be vindictive the right way! I won't even discuss the creamer...use your imagination...oh and those who say it's a crime, No, it was his personal supplies he bought with his own money...No court could or would jail him..as bad as it may seem and is, it's not illegal to add legal ingredients to your own coffee supplies...

9:54 I would've just brought the coffee machine, no coffee grounds, sugar, or anything else.

The coffee maker guy should've just brought in his receipt for the coffee maker and given it to Saul.

A suggestion to the Coffee Maker story...If you still had the receipt for it, bring it into work. Saul PROBABLY won't say shit about it. If he does, he could end up causing the company a scandal over something very petty. Or if Bob was thinking differently, Bob could just straight up tell Saul that the Coffee Maker WAS in fact OP's.

Sounds like Saul has a complaint of harassment/intimidation in 5...4...3...2....

Saul: You should get more coffee OP: Sorry i had a surgery that stops me from pooping out creamer

r/maliciouscomplicance are always my favourite videos, I mean posts, I mean what?

Can u cover more tree law???

RSlash, review Jake Paul's Financial Freedom Movement. It is literally a bunch of Choosingbeggers saying you have to do stuff for free because you get exposure points.

Sounds like the boss in the coffee machine story was a bit weak. He was so uncomfortable that he couldn't even just tell his equal that the property isn't the company's.

I would never ever tolerate someone at work talking down to me like that.

Dear Mr. rSLASH, We really appreciate the videos you post everyday. We love how you try really hard to meet our expectations and make good and funny content. But we hope that you don't forget to take care of yourself and your health. I am somewhat worried that you don't have enough sleep, don't have enough time for yourself, etc. I hope that you'd read this, because a day off isn't all that bad. Maybe days off. Well, I am just concerned about how you post everyday because (I think) it is hard to find good stories for good content. Just to let you know, rest is important. 😊😊😊 From your somewhat weird 😂 subscriber, Stryvor ✌️😊

This was back in the days on landline phones. My ex wife and I were living in an apartment. I worked nights. She was upstairs asleep. She woke when she heard a voice downstairs. She went down and discovered the landlord's daughter in our apartment making a call on our phone. She had a key and she had just let herself in. This same landlord rented the apartment next door to a group of students from India, telling them the apartment was empty and furnished. It was neither. They showed up as the old tenants were moving out, and they thought that some random people were stealing their furniture. There was shouting and the police were called.

9:18 great job on that edit! It's a small thing but really adds to the story!

OP: But mom it is tomorrow. OP's Mom: Listen here, you little ####

My wife worked overnight shift for a big box store. She brought her own coffee in and kept it in her locker. She brewed a regular pot and another pot of her coffee. A warning was issued to everyone: Stockers, maintenance, and management alike, to not touch her pot until it had completely brewed and she had gotten her first cup! There is a fresh pot of the stores coffee on the top burner!

When the annoying kid (the kid who always says “it’s tomorrow now” after midnight) from sleepovers grows up

The coffee maker story is completely bogus and unfeasible... The OP claims to _"fix machines"_ , therefore he works at either a factory or a manufacturing plant. In those places, there's *HEAVY* tools and appliances' inventory controls. Everything is labeled and serialized to prevent theft and encourage responsibility. The moment OP took his coffee maker home, he could have shut Saul up easily without the thing ever reaching Bob simply by telling him to check with the warehouse manager if a coffee maker was indeed part of that area. Immediate answer would be a resounding *NOPE* and instant *Shut up choosing beggar* to Saul.

How stingy can a person be for a cup of coffee? You just need to leave some change for it. It's not like it's Starbuck's price rate or something 😒

The last story was honestly my favorite. Way to stick it to his mom!

LMFAO "Oh I had a surgery that prevents me from shitting out creamer." That caught me off guard and now I can't stop laughing!

This title is literally every r/nosleep story lmao also rSlash you should make a r/nosleep video

"I just had a surgery that prevents me from shitting out creamer" savage!

What a good girl defending her home! First time my good girl defended our home it was 2nights in a row (creepy ubereats Guy) I spend 80 on steaks, mince, chicken, fancy chicken sausages (that smelled so good when i cooked them for her) and for that week she lived on really good cuts of meat- she was such a good girl and still a very young puppy (just a few months old) so I wanted to give her the strongest affirmation I could and let her know what a good brave girl she is and that she did the right thing... creepy ubereats dude never came back or tried again.

“So right on the stroke of midnight” I saw everything coming right after that

The only reasonable course of action in the vindicating mother story is too tell her "Oh, you can spend time with your husband/bf/friends later, but not today."

What, no PuppyBlooper? It's your JOB to give us PuppyBloopers. I am going to tell your boss.

It just dawned on me that in order for that supervisor to single out OP to talk about the coffee maker he needed to know it was OP's to begin with. He was just playing dumb to try to get free coffee.

For the coffee maker story, I really really REALLY wish that the story ended w/ OP filing a HR complaint of his own against Saul.

I would have told Bob that I'll gladly bring the coffee machine back in IF you pay me *original cost of coffee maker +10%* first. Otherwise that is a hard NO. Want to get HR involved? Go for it. There is no record of the office buying the coffee maker so the OP could not possibly be charged with the theft of something that A) he bought and brought from home, and B) that the company cant prove is owned by the company.

if i were him, unsolder the heating elecment, put coffee machine back together, nobody will miss a broken coffee machine id imagine

I do not understand why the guy who brought in the coffee machine did not report that guy for harassment and intimidation at the work place and if the guy did not do anything file a report with the state work board for unsafe work environment and harassment. then he could have sued the company and retired.

I did that once, my dad didnt want my friend to come over until the next day so at midnight I brought him in and my dad just started laughing and said "How ironic?" Never felt so good and proud of myself my entire life.

This subreddit really reminds me how good I have it. My employer supplies each department with a good coffee maker as well as supplemental supplies as needed. In my particular Department we really like good coffee. So our manager buys good coffee beans, and I Supply a good coffee grinder. Other true coffee lovers in the building know who has the good coffee. And we welcome them to share. From actual experience, I can tell people that it is not difficult to have great coffee and regular nice snacks when everyone freely contributes. Also, the only things I have to label that I keep in the fridge? The things I want people to take a share of! I drink my coffee black but since the company only supplies powdered coffee creamer and I know several people enjoy liquid, I regularly buy a carton of half-and-half and mark it "help yourself". I know our team is unbelievably lucky! But it's just so easy!

GG to the last guy. The power move right there was great

You can also make the same amount of money or more by robbing a bank... You could end up in prison though

the story with the landlord getting cornered by the dog made me think of my sister's old dog, Rex. Rex was a fat, lazy, dumb, akita chow mix. he was the bestest of boys. very sweet. just also fat, dumb, and lazy. complete opposite of his sister, but she's not a part of this story. so, one day my sister is home by herself (she was about 23 at the time, i think), and was in the shower. she comes out of the bathroom and finds that Rex, who can't be bothered to get up unless you have treats, has cornered a strange man by the front door. fur all bristled, teeth out, and nothing but growls from one of the sweetest dogs i've ever known. guy, who was scared shitless, claimed to be the postman, and said he heard someone say "come in" when he knocked to deliver a package. my sister screamed for him to get out, and he ran off. she called the post office to complain once she had calmed down, but they informed her that the postal worker on our route was a woman. police got called, and a report made, but we never found out if they caught the person. PO provided PD with gps info of their trucks, showing none were within two blocks of us at the time this all happened.

If Saul pulled that last stunt again, I would have called Bob and told him that the coffee maker isn't coming back and that I'm not either if Saul doesn't get put on a leash

Landlords are not allowed to come into the unit without tenant permission. It is trespassing, unless it is an emergency causing damage, like a water leak.

as a worker at a government shipyard that has to deal with some petty-ass contractors, the ship building story made me smile. especially since right now, we're going threw some petty bs with one of our former contractors that we're not allowed to discuss due to on-going litigation.

OP really should've backhanded Saul and told him to shut up and listen when he interrupted him.

So I clicked on the notification for this video and my phone went flat lol 😂 I was thinking I was a little tired since it’s almost 1am so my phone sorta did a petty malicious compliance lol 😂

I don't have a story but my oldest sister does. Some things might be incorrect because it's been a while. Setting [Highschool] My sister used to do hours at this one place, without getting paid. One day, when she was working there, a Karen came in 《said she had the haircut and everthing》soooooooo Karen buys a 12~20 dollar drink. About an hour later Karen comes back. I can't remember everything my oldest sister told me but apparently Karen wanted a refill which would be about 15 dollars. Which was "ToO mUcH!" Yet had no problem buying a $20 drink. Karen: " This is so unacceptable! Let me speak with your manager!" My sister: " I don't control the prices but I ca-" Karen: "Whatever, just refill my drink.." (Gives my older sister around $25 extra) She leaves before my sister can give her change back. So she came back happy because she got some cash. Or something like that, all I remember is that she bought a nice soft blanket.

I used to work in an office where we had a coffee supplies money jar. I drink a lot of coffee, so I regularly contributed. One day, the manager gave the team a lecture about whoever was being cheap and just contributing "pennies". Not just pennies, mind you. The whole range of coins. I raised my hand to speak, and I said, "I'm the one. I always put all my spare change in the coffee fund, in addition to whole dollars. If it's a problem I can stop. I just figured... money is money." Manager calmed down and apologized.

It’s bob. He’s refilling the coffee so Saul won’t raise a stink with corporate

General rule about coffee. If the company doesn't supply coffee for the staff, it's not a company worth working at.

Supervisors like that need to NOT be in a high position. Pathetic.

I had the coffee maker BS problem in one company... the first week everybody contribute but by the second no one wants to give money or make the conffee.

Hey OP. I hope when you decide to leave for greener pastures you take the coffee pot with you. From the last story: Hey OP I understand the pain of that. My mom also hated what became my wife. She did not like her at all. We eventually eloped (kinda). Her parents loved me so we went to the local Justice of the Peace and got married there with her parents as our witnesses. Her mom did not like the idea, but I told her she can be a part of it which I wanted or we will do it on our own having whoever was in the courtroom be our witnesses. She agreed and was happy for us. It wasn't until five years after my mom turned around and loved her as if she was her own. So, I do understand what you are saying.

i HATE he had to bring his own coffee maker back, that's disgusting

If your workplace has a rule against bringing in your own coffer maker or other personal items, it's because they have a Saul working there.

Get that puppers a good meal! Good puppers deserve good meals. Good job owner.

...You can't redline a contract like that after it's been signed and still expect it to stand up in court. You could probably get charged with fraud or something for pulling that nonsense.

The kids loved this video, RSlash! I’m glad you’re so amazing at this!

Another fantastic video! I am going to be posting another one today to ;)

I would love to see the commotion that would happen if OP got a new job and took the coffee maker. Wonder what Saul would do then.

I would not have brought my own coffee maker back, I'd have made the company do that.....

Man: “Bring back the coffee maker!” OP: “it’s MY property!” Man: “Bring it back or I will call the manager!” *brings it and teases the man with coffee*

So today in yearbook class I did my friends page for him so I asked him to do mine. He only had to put pictures I already made the page. But he started saying that he didn't ask for me to do his page and that he wasn't gonna do mine. So I went into the page, did mine and deleted all my work from his page and saved it.

Please help. It's been too long since the last TreeLaw episode and I'm going into withdrawal.

About the story about the landlord being backed up at the door by OP dog: I convinced my parents to get a "guard dog" (he's a shepard mix) for that exact reason

6:38 By the way, the post's use of "Nowhere, America" may just be a throwaway location, but "Nowhere, OK, U.S.A." is an actual place I found on Google Maps. Just something to think about.

I bet Saul bullied someone else. Bob should've stood up to him more for OP.

7:55 a simple take a penny, leave a penny rule

Oh no, Bob. Now Saul thinks he got his way. Bob should've told Saul that it was OP's coffee maker and he would ask him to bring it back if everyone puts money in the jar. Or he could've bought a new coffee maker with the company's funds. They're like 20 dollars anyway x)

I would have told Saul to screw off early on, and tell him to enjoy his termination if he pushes it.

we had a guy who brought in his own radio, think old boombox (warehouse). If anyone changed the station, he would take it off the wall and smash it. Quite possibly anger management issues, but still fun to watch.

I dunno about you guys, but if someone tried to give me shit for taking my own property home, called my boss, and then my boss asked me to bring it back in under the conditions in the story, I would have refused. No way would I allow an employer to either a) tell me what to do with my own property, and b) allow Saul to think they've won without straightening them out.

I would have told Saul to go ahead and complain, if I get fired then MY coffee machine won't be back either.
