Would you break a rule if you knew doing so would help solve a problem for your boss? One guy might have… had his boss chosen to be a bit kinder to him and his colleagues. The employee has told how they always had to adhere to a strict “no mobile phones at work” policy. No ifs or buts. And how that very policy came back to bite the bosses on one of the busiest work days of the year.
The employee says the landlines went down on that day, and he was left with no choice but to wait it out. He wasn’t allowed to use his personal phone so he couldn’t alert management to the hours-long crisis. His act of malicious compliance didn’t stop there, though. And the guy’s story has many netizens giving a slow clap.
