    When I was in elementary a teacher scolded me and told me I needed to have "quiet hands" because I was apparently distracting other students with my fidgeting. I asked the teacher what that meant and she said to stop moving my hands. I asked what I should do if I couldn't stop moving them, and she sighed and said "sit on them or something!" Later she was walking around as we were supposed to be taking notes and stopped at my desk, where I was sitting on my hands. She demanded why I wasn't taking notes and I said, very upset, "you told me I wasn't supposed to move my hands and to sit on them!"

    From what I've seen, drill seargeants actually like malicious compliers, because they know those are people who LISTEN very closely to what they're told to do, plus it makes for a funny "alright you got me" moment now and then.

    20:03 I used to do that in school so much. I qlso have autism, and whenever teachers got pissy, I'd twist their words and make trouble for them. Once, we were waiting to go but couldn't for some BS reason like the custodians cleaning. I needed to to to the bathroom. Well, our teacher said that I was not allowed to. When I asked why, since it was just a few steps away, she deflected and told me that if I wanted to, I could piss in the corner. I didn't even stop to think, I just saluted her, marched to the corner and untied my pants away from everyone as if was the most normal thing in the world. She almost had a heart attack and let me go to the bathroom. I was 11 at the time. Our teachers that year were terrible. I even got an eraser shoved into my mouth for questioning one of them repeatedly because they knew jack about greek mythology. It was incredibly scary (I had believed fake news that chalk was toxic when combined with saliva).

At the time, the people in charge were fierce legalists and had ramped up the punishments on everything beyond belief, such that the punishment for being late was death. The General noticed one day that he was going to be late, and since the punishment for being late was the same as the punishment for rebellion, he rebelled. Successfully.

    I can't tell you the amount of times, as a kid, I did shit that would be qualified as 'malicious compliance' but was, to me, ust my child brain following instructions. The amount of times my mother screamed at me for obeying what she said, but not the way she meant, is ridiculous. The amount of times I got called a 'smart ass' for just doing what I was told.
    And people wonder why I nearly have a panic attack when they give me the vaguest fucking instructions. You have to tell me EXACTLY what you want because I got my ass beat as a kid for doing what my mother told me, but my child brain had interpreted it differently. You CANNOT tell me 'go do this' because I THINK I know what you want, but you could also mean THIS and now I'm panicking because 'what if I fuck up?'

The shop was so huge there is too many stuff so idfk or like "clean down there" and there was rooms under the stairs and I didn't know which.
      It turns out that later on they found out my struggles and that's when I ended working there (btw they were nice, they just didn't know I'm neurodivergent until later) I ended working there due to my 1 year contract, no one was mean but there was lack of awareness for sure

    I sadly don't remember my first malicious compliance as I was a child, but my favorite one was working at a grocery store. I needed to move a skid of juice, no one would lend me a jigger (pump truck, or whatever you want to call it. The manual skid movers, not the automated driving ones.) I went to the assistant manager and was politely told to work it out as best I can. So I load a few boxes onto a cart (trolley/truck, the two tiered table on wheels you see at grocery stores) at a time and working that way. It's a slow process going all the way down to one end of the isle to grab the items to bring them back, stock them and repeat. In comes the manager who gives me shit for taking too long. I explain no one's letting me borrow a jigger and he says that's not his problem. Well still no one's letting me borrow a jigger and there's 400L left of juice to move. Me being more muscle than brains gets pissed off and decides fuck it. I hand dragged the skid of juice down the isle to where I needed to work. The skid scratched up the floor quite a bit, but being plastic it held together. I got my work done and from that point on when I needed a jigger, I got a jigger.

    I had a malicious compliance episode that had me going to work for 3 months to just play games on my phone or sleep in the quarters. I was on a 2 week leave of absence due to an ENT (ears nose throat) issue. And by protocol, they deactivated all my logins. When I got back, I was asked to call IT and file a ticket for the reactivation of my tools. Turns out they recently launched an automated ticketing system via IVR. After going through the ticketing system, the voice recording stated that it would take approximately 8 business days before my logins are reactivated. After the 4th day, my supervisor asked me to followup on the matter and go through the process again. So everyday for the next 3 months, I came to work, dialed IT and filed a ticket, then proceeded to play games on my phone somewhere else.
    I took 5 more employees having the same issue that I had before they investigated it. Turns out every time you check the status of the ticket, the system refreshes it and it starts from day 1.

    Policies encouraging bad behaviour reminds me of League of Legends where i already had a dispute with support.
    If you have a network takeout for like 2-3 min and come back to the game, you will get penalized no matter what you do after.
    So far so good.
    But when you are down that much, you are not really helpful to your team anymore, you can try but... well mostly only fail, which results in reports of feeding and maybe even a ban.
    And even if u succeed to manage to win, you don't get credit for it because u were AFK.
    So actually it is much better after such an incident, to just not log back in. You will get penalized anyway, minus the risk for a ban for feeding, minus tilting your team, and you will get a loss to your account anyway. Where the fk is the incentive to be a good player and keep trying ?
    They didn''t understand.
    And my malicious Compliance is, that i just stay AFK when i have any short disruption of networking etc. Better for everyone.

Where I live we have a HUGE annual balloon festival (nearly 1 million tourists) that lasts for 10 days and has morning and night events. Our facility was right next to the balloon field. My shift started at 6 pm and during that week I had to leave home by 4:30 to make it in on time. One night I left home about 4:05 and the traffic was so bad that I was still 30 minutes away at 5:40.

      I did something similar to that when I was 14. My brother and I had this rule in place. Who cooks doesn't clean. I tried doing most of the cooking for that reason alone. That day my brother cooked lunch instead. So he later asked me to wash the plates. Lavare i piatti is a phrase used a lot in Italy. But by piatti (plates) we most often mean everything you made dirty when cooking. We don't use the word for dishes even if we have one. So lazy ass me who had zero will to clean only cleaned the two plates in the sink and the cutlery. When my brother came back he yelled at me about not washing all the dishes. I told him he asked me to wash the plates only. So that's what I did. He then told me him and I know very well he meant all when he said plates. That it's a simple phrase, nothing more. I reminded him again he only asked me to wash the plates. And he didn't say anything about pots and pans.
      Three or so years later I was also diagnosed as part of the spectrum. Except what I did was out of malice not my autism. I really did not want to wash all the dishes.

    First story - My high school used to do a home class attendance at the start of the day and one at the end of the day for all year levels except for year 11 and 12 (Senior high for you Americans) was done at the start of the day. However, if you were in years 8 and 9 (Junior high), the teachers would check attendance every lesson during the day, however year 10 they wouldnt, so many of the students in year 10 would come to school, get their name marked off as being there, then disappear between the home class and their next lesson, only to return to school in time for the home class.
    More often than not they would get caught out skipping school when there was an assembly or the school ran a fire drill and your names had to be marked off so your home class teacher could mark you as being 'safe'.
    Even though it was a drill, education department policy was to then notify police that you were classed as missing during an emergency situation, explained it was a safety drill, and even though it was a drill police would then inform parents/guardians that their child was classified as missing.

    I can relate to Damien. I was a nervous new driver too, and I parked the same way. I should've trusted my instincts too because the first time I parked next to other cars, as I was pulling out I had my friend out front of the car to guide me out. She said when I started turning the wheel my front bumper went straight under the car next door's back bumper, with zero room to spare. Her face made me believe her!

    The last one feels like a lot is missing. If the girl was missing for work it might mean she has a retail job with a wiggly schedule, and then she got frustrated at the instructor for making it difficult for her so started to malicious compliance/act out herself. Could be wrong, but that's how it reads to me...

    • @rayhatesu
      @rayhatesu 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Honestly, it can go either way. Given that one was a story regarding college/university, there are a number of students going from a more rigid class setup (High School/Finishing School) to the more free-form college schedule who just end up being poor at managing time. That said, given the circumstances of the story (teacher/OP only being on campus twice a week with the one student being the only reason they have to travel there the second time during the week and that student repeatedly calling out from class, sometimes explicitly after they know the teacher is already on their way in just to screw with the teacher), I can understand the reasoning behind the teacher's actions: the student didn't respect the time the teacher was making for them and, judging by the intent to make the teacher drive out before letting them know it would be a waste of time, probably didn't respect the teacher either. Also, while I cannot speak in regards to jobs and education centers abroad, I know a good majority of companies in the US that hire college students are willing to work around the student's class schedule within reason, so that student (if in the US) was likely using work more as an excuse than it being the actual reason they wanted/needed out of class.

    that beef story happened to me and my brother aswell.
    We were on vacation of the canarie islands in spain (we are from sweden) and went to a local resturant. my mother and her husband ordered basicly some grilled meats (it was a bbq resturant) and my and my brother (we were both around 40 years old at the time me slightly over him slighly under) we decided a on a t-bone steak, but we also decided that we take the small one (600gr) instead of the large one (1200 g).
    When our food arrived the servers were almost giggling like girls when they served me and my brother two HUGE steaks (the big ones) and took pictures of us making fish imitations with open mouths. We only had to pay for the ones we ordered however - it was a struggle to eat all that meat though...

  • @JamesFromTexas
    @JamesFromTexas 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +10

    From Wikipedia about excise tax:
    Excises are often associated with customs duties, which are levied on pre-existing goods when they cross a designated border in a specific direction; customs are levied on goods that become taxable items at the border, while excise is levied on goods that came into existence inland.

    • @llearch
      @llearch 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      So, from the point of view of the country in question, customs is incoming goods getting taxed, and excise is outgoing goods getting taxed. Makes sense.

    I've worked in multiple jobs with the occurrence sickness mentioned at 6:57. Either you trigger with too many occurances or too many shifts (leeway on shifts is higher than occurrences). It dosent encourage you to return as quick as you could. The amount of times I went back to work thinking I was better but then having returned the same day or day after I was ill again which counts as a seperate occurrence. I learnt theres no point rushing back and I was better off spending extra time to ensure I was fine.

    Cause when told to not do thing A, they didnt see it as code for not doing thing B, they saw it as literally "Do not do thing A." So, they did not do thing A, but still did thing B because they werent actually told "don't do thing B." This thought process is one of the most common and recognizable traits of autism in children.
    Source: diagnosed at three, didn't actually know about it until like 14.

    2:59 So, the "storefront" site decided to disable sales with "expensive" shipping, so the friend moved the shipping cost into the item cost and raised the price more? I don't get how that's malicious compliance and not just simple capitalism. And if the site takes a cut of each sale, I only see them being happier with this. The only malicious part I see here is inflation. I guess a raised price is malicious towards customers, but the story isn't framed as being against the customers.

    So I have a son with my ex and she is obsessed with the possibility he is autistic she blames me and says I must be autistic too and passed it down . My son being 3 and non verbal does show alot of signes but because it takes so long in the UK to diagnose children before 5 years of age we are slowly going through the process . But back to the accusations it's my fault well I decided to push the doctor to get me tested he eventually got me I to an assessment for adult autism I did this to shut her up but after repeated visits the assessor said I have low functioning autism and its very possible I could have passed it onto my son because there is evidence that some autistic disorders are genetic . So keeping it a secret I had my son for the weekend and my ex yet again starts with the you are so retarded you have autism it's your fault bullshit she does but this time I record it on my ring doorbell . Last week I got custody of my son because I proved to the courts she was abusive to people with disability and if my son has autism like I do and this is how she treats me then how can I leave her in the care of my child ... should have kept your mouth shut

    So; sometimes I will hang out with my friends. One day when I was about 12, I asked my mom where I could and couldn’t go during the day out with this one girl who I’ll call Kisha. My mom said ‘I don’t really know. Just be reasonable, don’t go too far.’ She went on to tell me I could go further if I had my phone than if I didn’t. Cue me going further than I ever have before on a hangout day without specifically asking about that location. The idea was, if she yelled at me I’d just say “Really? I thought you’d let me go there if I asked? You told me to just be reasonable.”
    I did not get yelled at, but imagine if I did.

    The one at 3:05 is to avoid scammers. TONS of things on Amazon (and other sites) are listed at $0.01 plus $90 shipping, and this totally fucks up the ability for customers to sort things by price. Amazon (and me the customer) would strongly prefer that you include the shipping in the price. Just show me $90 plus free shipping so I can compare that against items that $85 or $95.
    I didn't realize how rampant that problem was until I searched for a tool that was also a word used for some kind of womens clothing. I sorted by price, and it was page after page after page of $0.01 plus X shipping. I'm glad Amazon is trying to get rid of that bullshit. Just show people the actual price and stop screwing around.

She tried to pull the same thing again today but I had said “Make me 150 dollars” to which she brought back 2 medium sized pieces of paper with 100 and 50 written on them to which I did not let her play because it was funny the first time and not so much the second.
