Honestly I think he should have reported her. Yes, he would need to admit to submitting an incomplete essay, but in doing so he'd surely say 'Because of the family emergency and my denied extension time, I did this, so I wouldn't fail.' Wouldn't that get her on both points?
Yeah, she's obviously failing as a professor. What if one of the kids in her class has been genuinely trying to improve, and has been by all accounts, but is just consistently getting 3/10 because she doesn't read them? That student could fail their class just because the professor isn't doing her job. Horrible
@@TheSecondB-nn2vt Probably to watch them suffer, or have a sense of power over others, or in this case just to be a dick, bitch, whatever your preference. Like that, this person had a family emergency I think that's a very valid reason to have an extension, but the pug in the chair deemed that a piece of paper is more important lol. So I don't blame em for copying n' pasting the text and submitting it, screw you lol.

With the one of the mother wanting to be thanked for every little thing she did around the house, I have the opposite story. So one day my family decided to go visit a place, since I wasn't feeling well I stayed home. While at home I cleaned everything from the windows to the walls. The only thing left was the dishes and cleaning the kitchen sink. What then happened next was after 12 hours of cleaning, they ended up coming home. My mother said that I did a shit job at cleaning. My dad and siblings mentioned that everything else was clean, it was just the dishes left. Apparently the house is only clean if the dishes are done. She proceeded to the make a mess of everything, including the walls. Then when they went to go out the next time, she told me to male sure the house was clean when they got back. So I did the dishes, and only the dishes. They were washed and dried then put away. Then I sat down and played some games on my computer. When they got back, she was angry that the house wasn't clean. So I told her it was, she mentioned the dirt on the walls, floors, rubbish left on the kitchen bench and many other things. I simply said "But the dishes are done, so the house is clean. That is what you said last weekend. So if you do not think I did it right, then you know where all the cleaning supplies are." She was angry, but everyone stuck up for me. Oddly enough, she never complained about it again.
That master’s student guy got the short end of the stick. What appears to be weeks or even months of bullying by multiple people doesn’t equal out with one “win”. And that apology by the advisor on behalf of the others? Were they even sorry? Couldn’t they do it in person? And what happened after that incident? Did F come back with a vengeance and made OP’s life even more miserable? True, it’s malicious compliance, but doesn’t come off as all too good.
Not even 1 month ago, I got massive revenge by being maliciously compliant. It was glorious. I will explain, so that we can all laugh at them together. So, I used to live in a long-term care home, where they kept pressuring us to get more C-19 vaccines. When I refused to get a 3rd vaccine, they took away all of my clothes, my iPad, my blanket, and my teddy bear, and told me that I wasn't allowed to have any of them unless I got a 3rd vaccine. I also wasn't allowed to shower. I did this in the hopes that someone would see it and put a stop to it. This went on for 4 days before my Dad came to visit me. When he saw that I wasn't wearing clothes and showering in my sink, he freaked out, threatened to sue them, and got one of the nurses fired. It actually worked out even better than I thought it would. *Malicious laugh.* 😏
That essay story kinda happened to me in high school once. We had this history teacher that seemed to grade solely on whether she liked you or not. And no, she did NOT like me. One girl especially was the teacher's pet, getting amazing grades whatever she did. But one time she comes to me in a panic because she'd completely forgotten about the essay that was due the next day. So we copied mine almost verbatim, switching some paragraphs and sentences around, real basic stuff like changing "Paris is the capital of France" to "The capital of France is Paris" but whatever. As long as she had something to turn in, right? So when we got our grades, mine was a 6/10 (the grade I usually got) and hers was 8/10 (the grade she usually got) despite hers being a hastily thrown together mess that read like my essay, transcribed by Yoda. I'm pretty sure she could have handed in an A4 of Lorum Ipsum and still gotten that 8/10 though.
Me too. I had an English teacher that would give me the exact same grade, with the exact same comments, on EVERY assignment. I eventually reported her to the school (nothing happened) and I left that school at the end of that year.
Man, nothing pisses me off more than micromanagement. If you have to tell people to do a job and then also tell them how to do it each and every time, you've FAILED as a manager. Your job is to ensure the work gets done, not babysit your employees.
Words to the effect of "I checked it again later just so I could make another guess at how well I think I did, and got met with a wall of garbage", I'd imagine.
Not corrupted. Intentionally corrupted-like to cheat a deadline. Sounded like he tried to play it off as their system being broken. Still should have reported though
One little problem: they have to actually be funny and not compromise the movie completely. Does the Cat in the Hat succeed at that? I get it, you gotta extend the plot to fit two hours. But what they did… I genuinely don’t wanna watch that movie again. At least the game is decentish… Seriously, that film was so bad, Mike Myers himself didn’t want to do it. From what I heard, he spent most of his time in his trailer, refusing to come and film.
@@TheDMan2003Yup, never understood the praise for it. It always looked REALLY bad. Like a bad porno filmed on a potato. And the jokes were just... bleh
Just wanted to thank my "History of Furniture" professor who witnessed my BOOK of a project corrupt when my laptop died. I managed to revive it and pull the save into notepad with a TON of extra spaces and random characters. She said that I could go hang out in the library and fix it while other people were doing their presentations. It took almost an hour and wasn't nearly as nicely formatted, but she gave me an A anyway ❤
ok, it is entirely possible that Tim's mom is a narcissist and just needed to be the center of attention, which sucks for everyone around them. However, with the fact Tim's dad is mentioned at the end and the feeling that maybe mom did all of the cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc, I think she might be a bit justified in her whining. It sort of sounds like Tim's dad (and probably Tim, who seems to be a teenager at the time given the fact he went off and bought a box of trophies) aren't doing anything to help out with any of those things. They just expected mom to do it all for them.
Yeah, it's hard to say what's going on especially when this is Tim's cousin recounting the tale likely told to him by Tim. Not really a firsthand story. And a lot of moms are overworked with their family acting like her life is easy because she's home all day whereas the others go to work/school. Then again, the mom might've been a difficult person. I know some parents who will micromanage and nitpick every chore you do. So then you don't bother doing chores and then they complain they're the only ones doing anything. Sometimes you just can't win with people. Still, at the end of the day, it doesn't hurt to thank someone. My mom and I always take some time to express our appreciation of the chores the other does. Are they necessary? Yes. Are we responsible for them? Yes. But it's nice to be reminded our efforts are recognized. It's easy to say, "Thanks for making dinner, mom." Like, I can't imagine how much time TIm wasted observing his mom so obsessively that he's eventually giving her not just a trophy, but fanfare music and such, just for going to the bathroom or taking a shower. Maybe he could've been helping with chores or doing schoolwork instead. Or at least having some fun with a good video game.
Honestly, if I asked for more days and they just divide my hours between more days, I'd hand in my resignation. Clearly they don't want to give me the pay I need, so bai bai.
At my last job, we had a woman who if you weren't doing your job how SHE wanted you to, or how fast she liked, she would move you on the line to an area she knew you weren't very good at as "punishment" (for reference, thus was a factory setting packaging dog treats). one day, she all of a sudden isn't happy with how I'm counting the pigs ears, so she moves me to boxing, which was very fast paced and I always had a hard time keeping up with it. At one point she tells me I need to go faster, and I'm already pissed, so I did, fueled by spite alone. Got to the point when she couldn't keep up with me, and that angered her even more, so she moved me again. Didn't really test me much after that.
@@jenkathefridge3933 for her line, yes. She was an awful woman. She would also take away mats the company provided, body shame people to their face, and lie to her superior every time someone complained about how she treated everyone.
@@Jungkookieskitten sounds like my fast food job. I got moved to dishes after telling my boss I was allergic to the soap they use. Turns out being rush hour she didn't notice me barely spraying the dishes then going to the bathroom to watch TH-cam for three hours. When she asked where I went I said I tried to do the dishes but then my hands swelled up so I used the restroom. Never happened agains
fairly sure he is a full time employee and as such i would have gone to the manager as told him if this is not fixed it would be reported to the labor board and possibly get lawyers involved for breach of contract
The trophy thing was a bit one sided on the kids part and depending on the father and kids behavior her constant complaints could have been justified. It's doesn't seem like the husband or son respect her. I wonder if they help out with chores at all? Does the mother also work full time yet does all the housework by herself too? I too would complain about every little "normal" thing too if the norm was only I was doing them with zero help.
College cook story: That wasn't malicious compliance, that was straight up malicious. He told the assistant manager he wouldn't be able afford expenses. Working the same number of hours on more days isn't going to increase his paycheck, it's going to cost him more in traveling costs to get to work. Bring it up with the owner that your hours were reduced for no reason and management is being a dick about it. Darts story: I'm glad this one didn't end up with Mary impaled. I can easily see the next person in line thinking all the darts had been thrown and start retrieving them before the final one is suddenly sticking out of their hand. You retrieve your own darts for a reason!
Okay, may be just a generational thing. I and my brothers did chores. Mom was not the only one cooking and cleaning. If the cousins mother was the only one doing all the cooking and cleaning I can see her being upset. That was not attention seeking. It was someone who is not being given the appreciation they deserve. I bet cousin always had clean clothes, clean house, fresh linen, hot meals, all buttons on clothes. Windows he could see out of, clean dishes to eat off of, didn’t stick to the floor or other surfaces. And if mother worked outside the home, like many wives have to, all that has to be done after eight hours at her job. If she didn’t work outside the home it is still work and it’s unpaid work that’s done everyday. Without weekends or holidays off. So cousin and his uncle were AH for belittling her for wanting them to show appreciation for what she does.
I'm glad to see a guy asking this question. Seriously -- I expected to see it asked by a fellow female. I also wonder if the husband and son don't kinda gang up on her when it suits them, or whipsaw her by each demanding she do mutually-exclusive things, like the husband saying, "I'm starving! Fix me a sandwich," while the son hollers, "You need to iron my shirt _right now!_"
If that Tim lived in my house... he wouldn't stay here for long. If he's old enough to give cheek, he's old enough to learn how to do household chores, or show some appreciation for someone who's doing it on his behalf.
@@LordPhobos6502 My parents taught my sister, brother, and me to show appreciation for what people do for us. They never _said_ "This is what you do." They simply modeled the behavior: "Donna, the dinner was delicious!" "Thanks so much for taking care of the dishes, Alex." Kids absorb these things like the little behavioral/emotional sponges they're wired to be.
But as the video said there a difference between wanting to be appreciated and just wanting attention i can't say one way or the other on the grand scheme of things but its good to know that such a difference exists.
I’m probably one of ten people who has watched the cat in the hat movie countless times as a kid, eventually the jokes caught up to me, is the movie cursed? Yeah. Is it an offense to everything dr suess is? Yeah. Is it fucking funny? Yeah it is
Luxembourg is legally a constitutional monarchy, but heraldicly, it's a duchy - that is, the head of state is a duke (or, when appropriate, a duchess). This has been your weird little fact for the day.
Man, that Tim story pisses me off. What the kid isn’t telling you is that he doesn’t lift a finger, sits on his ass all day, and yells at his mom when she asks him to do anything. Pours himself cereal and leaves the milk, cereal box, and bowl on the table. Walks in the house and kicks his shoes off in the middle of the doorway. Throws his laundry on the floor of his bedroom instead of in the hamper so mom has to collect it all off the floor before she can wash it. Kid’s an asshole, as his mom doesn’t deserve this bullshit. Decent kids don’t pull shit like buying a case of trophies to humiliate their mom.
Honestly, the one who had it done to them is kinda disgusting though. Like, they asked for more work so they can LIVE. That's not the time to be petty.
I love how it's apparently tiresome and awful for wanting to be thanked for helping out around the house and those types need to be prank-punished for wanting basic human respect. 🙄
It's really fun to sit here listening to the video, and watching the views and likes number roll up as time goes😂. I love these videos. Malicious Compliance always makes for a fun story. edit: Hi Tim!!! ( 9:00 )
I remember last week i think friday i had done my own MC at work. I kept asking what i needed to do, got told and went to do my job. A bit later I'm given a coaching because I've for the past few days "been working slow and asking more questions than needed when instructions are completed and understandable". Cur my work, i went faster and for the past few days i have asked ZERO QUESTIONS, i have so far only done as im told and whats on the board, havent been told anything since but i feel they definitely didnt get good out of it since i do the work and theyve had to move stuff around after because i didjt ask where to put things, dont like my questions to confimr fine. Other time i kept trying to asking what needs to be done but everyone ignored me, after 3 people cue my call. I left and went to the bathroom for a good few minutes, went and bought a drink up front, drank some, then went back to the back. If im not told i cant do my job right? Sure enough im asked where I was, made up a lie about having to go to the bathroom and got a drink from the break room. They then told me what we we're doing after because the next parts to be done was ready to be worked.
8:50 - THis is the epitome of "is it for a grade?" So many students won't do something if they know it's not for a grade. The paper is more of a reflection of what you learned & is for you, but the teacher (most likely) knows that students just wouldn't do it if there wasn't any real reason for them to do so.
8:22 my 7th grade teacher actualy did this for a work we had at the end of the year, we all had the same message but just different names, we concluded that he didnt even read it was like oh good job
10:31 "Appreciation is nice but not for things that are expected of you when you are a parent." No. Absolutely not. You're wrong. Reciprocal appreciation is EXTREMELY important in a family. When there is a mismatch between perceived effort and perceived appreciation your literally get divorces. Which is not to say that this mom wasn't exaggerating, maybe she was, but you can't make blanket statements like that.
10:30 hard disagree, someone should thank you even if its a normal, expected thing. Given, you shouldn't FISH for appreciation, but rather sit down and have a mature discussion about these things rather than being passive aggressive about it
My Honours Alg II teacher gave us daily assignments, each due on Friday. Like most procrastinators, I did them all Thursday night. usually doing ~60-100 math questions, or ~20-40 is it was longer ones. Took me until second semester to realize he was putting in 100% regardless of if we submitted anything, then halfway through 4th quarter, so we got a sub for the rest of the year. The sub removed all HW grades for the first half of the fourth quarter. Also, the school didn’t give the guy who would be teaching us for the next 5 weeks access to Schoology, where the online textbook is, as well as where our HW is posted. Every night I checked Schoology, unaware that he didn’t have access. Turns out he had Gmailed me a list of all the HWs, but it was out of order and had no dates on it. I had to do 5 HW assignments for only half credit, which is worsened by the fact that my original teacher had HW grades out of two, but the Sub put them in out of five. Luckily I figured it out, and my grades got better
8:52 dam this reminds me of a similar thing in my school, i got a bit suspicious that on every assignment i got a b in my RE class (catholic school), i was out of school for a day for some competition and missed the terms test, i didnt mention it to her because i thought it would be obvious as i wasnt even the only one, and i wasnt rly gonna remind her as i wasnt ready for the test. next week rolls around and she tells me i got a b but that she cant find my test
I dreamed about a man named Luxembourg, once. A sorceress named Ais had hired him and turned him into a terrifying flesh demon, then sent him out with a bunch of others to hunt me down. I thought it was the damn apocalypse
Did I somehow miss the one where the MC actually blocked their boss? Closest I noticed was the bus in the drive-through, but that wasn't exactly blocking, so I suspect I blanked on something.
14:20 Nice to see Luxembourg getting some recognition! Also the reason foreign languages are because no one learns Luxembourgish. (Despite it, German and whatever mess the French created being the national languages).
It was in Luxembourg, not Germany. The professor spoke Luxembourgian as their first language and was not a native German speaker. It was not a German university, it was just a German class as a foreign language elective
@@delirium4414Did you pay attention to the video? The poster literally starts with "since there is only one university in [Luxembourg], there is a tradition of students [from Luxembourg] going to university in [another country]", specifically to Strasbourg, which in this case is either Strasbourg, France (unlikely) or Strasbourg, Germany (far more likely, a train ride from one to the other is simple and also costs on 18 or so Euros). There is no Strasbourg, Luxembourg. I checked. Ergo, this was likely a professor in a German University teaching German as a foreign language to people not native to Germany, likely also one without much knowledge of Luxembourg as well, since they'd chosen to change the policy until the malicious compliance knocked them down a peg and got them to change it back to preserve their ego.
From my experience the person told by the manager to keep out of the way when the bus turned up at the drive through was probably useless and more likely to be a hindrance than help
"Analyses" > "Ah-nal-ih-seez" Hope you see this and it helps, hon! Love your videos! I'm wicked good at pronunciation, so I'm always happy to help break things down for others! (I'm not perfect, of course... I thought awry was aw-ree for over 5 years... but I didn't connect the word I'd seen in a random book with the word I already knew because my context comprehension was high and I didn't hear the word SPOKEN in context for a long time... So the connection took a long time to make.)
10:08 yeah I understand the kids frustration… my wife gets in these types of moods once a month….. but if any of my kids did this to my wife, they wouldn’t be able to sit on their asses for a good week or so.
Generally university classes in Germany aren't mandatory to attend, some professors are weird though. Also weird that they had a professor for German that makes that many mistakes
@10:30, yeah when it's normal and expected, sure. but when i lived together with my ex i was the only one who had a paying job, who worked 5 days a week from 7 to 4. he didn't had a job, and all he did was just lazily sit on his pc all day playing games. no effort making of looking for a job, or do some of the house chores since he had more time during the day then i did. yet even though i was the only one working, he expected me to still cook dinner every day, do laundry once or twice a week, clean the apartment and all other house chores. only then i would like it if he appreciated and thanked me for doing literally everything in and around the house as his girlfriend while he gets to sit on his fat ass all day playing games. keep in mind he's a mentally healthy and stable guy, just being too lazy to do something. he would even argue and pick fights with me if i asked him to do one or two things for me, even when those things were small
if needed i usually pronounce it (an-al-uh-sees) i do also *really* want to say that i am not trying to actively correct his pronunciation, i know how the internet handles people that do that, i am simply trying to make sure that some information, that could probably be needed, is provided. and again that's only the way i pronounce it.
Just to help with the word you hate. If you know analysis, to say analyses instead of "sis" go "seas" Analysis - uh-nal-eh-sis Analyses - uh-nal-eh-seas Just to help. I know how it is for awkward changes to words like that. I'm running into a lot with my job as of late...and I appreciate when someone can help me with those moments.
We have cases too in Russian. This isn't malicious compliance but just pure malice from one of my Russian teachers in highschool. For context I'm Italian and speak Italian but my mom being Ukrainian I also speak a fair bit of Russian. I understand almost all of it. Because I had a passion for foreign languages as a kid and still do, I settled for a diploma in foreign languages. Meaning: English, French and Russian. My very first teacher was mean and acted like she knew better than all of us. Or kind of. She berated me for not getting new glasses and that me trying to see well was very distracting to others. I had gotten those glasses made from a check I asked for that my mom found a coupon for. So the check was trash and he didn't fix my vision one bit. My glasses were as bad as they were before once then new lense was installed. So I sucked it up because my parents aren't rich. And we can't afford to go to our previous expensive private doctor nor could we afford to get a new set of lenses. This teacher though despite causing many people to hate her, was somewhat decent. We had a native Ukrainian girl join our class. The teacher refused to test her because she felt it was the most useless thing. "She's native Russian! What's the point in me testing her?" and so on. The next teacher we had would test her and grade her accordingly. But the last one... The last one was a total shitshow. She made one student cry and kicked her out of her class for disturbing others. She wanted to grade me a 2/10 because I refused to get tested. Then claimed she wanted to help me by giving me a second chance by making me do something prohibited by the school. We had an assembly the next day and rules say you can't get tested during assemblies because you need testimony of your test. Or else the teacher could unfairly grade you. And you can't force a student out of partecipanting the assembly they agreed to participate to if they wanted to or they could leave. She wanted to test me during that time and then save the mark in the system as if I was tested the day prior. I of course told her I wouldn't do anything that wasn't school policy as I didn't want to get in trouble for something she did. And then she came at me saying based off my behaviour towards her I deserved the low mark anyways. That day she oral tested my Ukrainian classmate. And she had the balls to give her a 9/10. She said everything perfectly. Yet she didn't get the best mark. This teacher expected us to be perfect in Russian. When even my mom admitted to not speaking a perfect Russian with her Ukrainian friends. If a native can't what about non natives? I'm native Italian mind you. I can't imagine the low mark I would've gotten beucase of her. As a side note she once got mad at me over her technical issues. She started a Google meet call (it was during quarantine) but I guess something happened with that call cause she started a new one. At the time I have several issues with our WiFi so it was disconnected and I was struggling to log onto the call. I logged in but it looked weird. I could hear all my classmates but I couldn't see their icons in the call. I though my Google meet was going crazy so I ignored it. Until she called my name and asked about me. I said I was present but she couldn't hear me. Despite I could hear her. She then got mad at me for not properly logging on. My mom got mad at me for not checking my phone to make sure I was on the right call. Because my classmates texted saying she had some issue with the first call and made a new one without closing the first call. Which is why I could hear everyone but not see them.

She was angry, but everyone stuck up for me. Oddly enough, she never complained about it again.

This went on for 4 days before my Dad came to visit me. When he saw that I wasn't wearing clothes and showering in my sink, he freaked out, threatened to sue them, and got one of the nurses fired. It actually worked out even better than I thought it would. *Malicious laugh.* 😏

Me too. I had an English teacher that would give me the exact same grade, with the exact same comments, on EVERY assignment. I eventually reported her to the school (nothing happened) and I left that school at the end of that year.

"That would have meant confessing to submitting an incomplete essay"
No, you submitted a _corrupted_ essay. There's a difference.
Yeah, but how would HE know about the fact his essay got corrupted. Surely if he knew that he’d have tried to send in the proper one?
Words to the effect of "I checked it again later just so I could make another guess at how well I think I did, and got met with a wall of garbage", I'd imagine.
He could have just said. I git really suspicious that my marks never changed, so I sent in a test essay.
Not corrupted. Intentionally corrupted-like to cheat a deadline. Sounded like he tried to play it off as their system being broken.
Still should have reported though
i wonder if the error code was just "404 page not found" over and over again
Man. The adult jokes that sail over the kids heads are the best part of kids movies. Especially when you re watch them when they are older
One little problem: they have to actually be funny and not compromise the movie completely. Does the Cat in the Hat succeed at that? I get it, you gotta extend the plot to fit two hours. But what they did… I genuinely don’t wanna watch that movie again. At least the game is decentish…
Seriously, that film was so bad, Mike Myers himself didn’t want to do it. From what I heard, he spent most of his time in his trailer, refusing to come and film.
@@TheDMan2003Yup, never understood the praise for it. It always looked REALLY bad. Like a bad porno filmed on a potato. And the jokes were just... bleh
@@gavinziozios1431 A bad porno filmed on a potato. Best summarization of that movie’s quality.
Just wanted to thank my "History of Furniture" professor who witnessed my BOOK of a project corrupt when my laptop died. I managed to revive it and pull the save into notepad with a TON of extra spaces and random characters. She said that I could go hang out in the library and fix it while other people were doing their presentations. It took almost an hour and wasn't nearly as nicely formatted, but she gave me an A anyway ❤
ok, it is entirely possible that Tim's mom is a narcissist and just needed to be the center of attention, which sucks for everyone around them. However, with the fact Tim's dad is mentioned at the end and the feeling that maybe mom did all of the cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc, I think she might be a bit justified in her whining. It sort of sounds like Tim's dad (and probably Tim, who seems to be a teenager at the time given the fact he went off and bought a box of trophies) aren't doing anything to help out with any of those things. They just expected mom to do it all for them.
Yeah, it's hard to say what's going on especially when this is Tim's cousin recounting the tale likely told to him by Tim. Not really a firsthand story. And a lot of moms are overworked with their family acting like her life is easy because she's home all day whereas the others go to work/school. Then again, the mom might've been a difficult person. I know some parents who will micromanage and nitpick every chore you do. So then you don't bother doing chores and then they complain they're the only ones doing anything. Sometimes you just can't win with people. Still, at the end of the day, it doesn't hurt to thank someone. My mom and I always take some time to express our appreciation of the chores the other does. Are they necessary? Yes. Are we responsible for them? Yes. But it's nice to be reminded our efforts are recognized. It's easy to say, "Thanks for making dinner, mom." Like, I can't imagine how much time TIm wasted observing his mom so obsessively that he's eventually giving her not just a trophy, but fanfare music and such, just for going to the bathroom or taking a shower. Maybe he could've been helping with chores or doing schoolwork instead. Or at least having some fun with a good video game.
Honestly, if I asked for more days and they just divide my hours between more days, I'd hand in my resignation. Clearly they don't want to give me the pay I need, so bai bai.
8:44 Should've reported her since it would also explain the incomplete assignment.
At my last job, we had a woman who if you weren't doing your job how SHE wanted you to, or how fast she liked, she would move you on the line to an area she knew you weren't very good at as "punishment" (for reference, thus was a factory setting packaging dog treats). one day, she all of a sudden isn't happy with how I'm counting the pigs ears, so she moves me to boxing, which was very fast paced and I always had a hard time keeping up with it. At one point she tells me I need to go faster, and I'm already pissed, so I did, fueled by spite alone. Got to the point when she couldn't keep up with me, and that angered her even more, so she moved me again. Didn't really test me much after that.
Was she the manager?
@@jenkathefridge3933 for her line, yes. She was an awful woman. She would also take away mats the company provided, body shame people to their face, and lie to her superior every time someone complained about how she treated everyone.
@@Jungkookieskitten sounds like my fast food job. I got moved to dishes after telling my boss I was allergic to the soap they use. Turns out being rush hour she didn't notice me barely spraying the dishes then going to the bathroom to watch TH-cam for three hours. When she asked where I went I said I tried to do the dishes but then my hands swelled up so I used the restroom. Never happened agains
12:36 So they cut the OP's hours per week for asking for more workdays so they could afford survival...
that's what I'm saying, it can barely qualify as Malicious Compliance.
@@bear_trap107 Yeah. It comes across like "Can I be excused from the table?" "I don't know, can you?"
fairly sure he is a full time employee and as such i would have gone to the manager as told him if this is not fixed it would be reported to the labor board and possibly get lawyers involved for breach of contract
8:45 Wait a second that's horrible because imagine failing on something and she just continuously keeps putting a much lower grade than you got!?
The trophy thing was a bit one sided on the kids part and depending on the father and kids behavior her constant complaints could have been justified. It's doesn't seem like the husband or son respect her. I wonder if they help out with chores at all? Does the mother also work full time yet does all the housework by herself too? I too would complain about every little "normal" thing too if the norm was only I was doing them with zero help.
16:15 - I would go to the board & report them. If they're having that many errors, they're not being a very good teacher.
College cook story: That wasn't malicious compliance, that was straight up malicious. He told the assistant manager he wouldn't be able afford expenses. Working the same number of hours on more days isn't going to increase his paycheck, it's going to cost him more in traveling costs to get to work. Bring it up with the owner that your hours were reduced for no reason and management is being a dick about it.
Darts story: I'm glad this one didn't end up with Mary impaled. I can easily see the next person in line thinking all the darts had been thrown and start retrieving them before the final one is suddenly sticking out of their hand. You retrieve your own darts for a reason!
Okay, may be just a generational thing. I and my brothers did chores. Mom was not the only one cooking and cleaning. If the cousins mother was the only one doing all the cooking and cleaning I can see her being upset. That was not attention seeking. It was someone who is not being given the appreciation they deserve. I bet cousin always had clean clothes, clean house, fresh linen, hot meals, all buttons on clothes. Windows he could see out of, clean dishes to eat off of, didn’t stick to the floor or other surfaces. And if mother worked outside the home, like many wives have to, all that has to be done after eight hours at her job. If she didn’t work outside the home it is still work and it’s unpaid work that’s done everyday. Without weekends or holidays off. So cousin and his uncle were AH for belittling her for wanting them to show appreciation for what she does.
God this one hit too close to home
Yeah cousin was a jerk, I sympathize with the mom here
12:39 that’s pretty crappy to do messing with someone’s livelihood for the joke
Mom should get a trophy since she does all the laundry, cooking, and housekeeping. What does the husband or son do around the house?
From what I could see the mom just wanted someone to say thank you. How pathetic to turn that into some rude and wasteful thing.
I'm glad to see a guy asking this question. Seriously -- I expected to see it asked by a fellow female. I also wonder if the husband and son don't kinda gang up on her when it suits them, or whipsaw her by each demanding she do mutually-exclusive things, like the husband saying, "I'm starving! Fix me a sandwich," while the son hollers, "You need to iron my shirt _right now!_"
If that Tim lived in my house... he wouldn't stay here for long.
If he's old enough to give cheek, he's old enough to learn how to do household chores, or show some appreciation for someone who's doing it on his behalf.
@@LordPhobos6502 My parents taught my sister, brother, and me to show appreciation for what people do for us. They never _said_ "This is what you do." They simply modeled the behavior: "Donna, the dinner was delicious!" "Thanks so much for taking care of the dishes, Alex." Kids absorb these things like the little behavioral/emotional sponges they're wired to be.
But as the video said there a difference between wanting to be appreciated and just wanting attention i can't say one way or the other on the grand scheme of things but its good to know that such a difference exists.
I’m probably one of ten people who has watched the cat in the hat movie countless times as a kid, eventually the jokes caught up to me, is the movie cursed? Yeah. Is it an offense to everything dr suess is? Yeah. Is it fucking funny? Yeah it is
Luxembourg is legally a constitutional monarchy, but heraldicly, it's a duchy - that is, the head of state is a duke (or, when appropriate, a duchess).
This has been your weird little fact for the day.
What a strange country
Man, that Tim story pisses me off. What the kid isn’t telling you is that he doesn’t lift a finger, sits on his ass all day, and yells at his mom when she asks him to do anything. Pours himself cereal and leaves the milk, cereal box, and bowl on the table. Walks in the house and kicks his shoes off in the middle of the doorway. Throws his laundry on the floor of his bedroom instead of in the hamper so mom has to collect it all off the floor before she can wash it.
Kid’s an asshole, as his mom doesn’t deserve this bullshit. Decent kids don’t pull shit like buying a case of trophies to humiliate their mom.
Honestly, the one who had it done to them is kinda disgusting though. Like, they asked for more work so they can LIVE. That's not the time to be petty.
I love how it's apparently tiresome and awful for wanting to be thanked for helping out around the house and those types need to be prank-punished for wanting basic human respect. 🙄
0:35 "you could've warned us" ......but he did????

It's really fun to sit here listening to the video, and watching the views and likes number roll up as time goes😂. I love these videos. Malicious Compliance always makes for a fun story.
edit: Hi Tim!!! ( 9:00 )
I remember last week i think friday i had done my own MC at work. I kept asking what i needed to do, got told and went to do my job. A bit later I'm given a coaching because I've for the past few days "been working slow and asking more questions than needed when instructions are completed and understandable". Cur my work, i went faster and for the past few days i have asked ZERO QUESTIONS, i have so far only done as im told and whats on the board, havent been told anything since but i feel they definitely didnt get good out of it since i do the work and theyve had to move stuff around after because i didjt ask where to put things, dont like my questions to confimr fine.
Other time i kept trying to asking what needs to be done but everyone ignored me, after 3 people cue my call. I left and went to the bathroom for a good few minutes, went and bought a drink up front, drank some, then went back to the back. If im not told i cant do my job right? Sure enough im asked where I was, made up a lie about having to go to the bathroom and got a drink from the break room. They then told me what we we're doing after because the next parts to be done was ready to be worked.
One 'analysis'. Two 'analys-ease'.
8:50 - THis is the epitome of "is it for a grade?" So many students won't do something if they know it's not for a grade. The paper is more of a reflection of what you learned & is for you, but the teacher (most likely) knows that students just wouldn't do it if there wasn't any real reason for them to do so.
My two favorite adult jokes from the Cat in the Hat movie, "Dirty h*e" and "SON OF A BIIIIIIIIIIIIIII------"
i opened my chromebook and got maliciously attacked by damien.
8:22 my 7th grade teacher actualy did this for a work we had at the end of the year, we all had the same message but just different names, we concluded that he didnt even read it was like oh good job
always a good day when emkay uploads
Everyday is a good day then
Especially with my favorite narrators: Damien, Robin, and Lexi
I didn’t know it was possible for me to not be three months late on an Emkay video
10:19 I hope OP went the extra while and paid for ingrainments like "a winner is you" or "you're winner"
10:31 "Appreciation is nice but not for things that are expected of you when you are a parent."
No. Absolutely not. You're wrong. Reciprocal appreciation is EXTREMELY important in a family. When there is a mismatch between perceived effort and perceived appreciation your literally get divorces. Which is not to say that this mom wasn't exaggerating, maybe she was, but you can't make blanket statements like that.
10:30 hard disagree, someone should thank you even if its a normal, expected thing. Given, you shouldn't FISH for appreciation, but rather sit down and have a mature discussion about these things rather than being passive aggressive about it
Kids should help their parents. Mine don't, but they should
My Honours Alg II teacher gave us daily assignments, each due on Friday. Like most procrastinators, I did them all Thursday night. usually doing ~60-100 math questions, or ~20-40 is it was longer ones. Took me until second semester to realize he was putting in 100% regardless of if we submitted anything, then halfway through 4th quarter, so we got a sub for the rest of the year. The sub removed all HW grades for the first half of the fourth quarter. Also, the school didn’t give the guy who would be teaching us for the next 5 weeks access to Schoology, where the online textbook is, as well as where our HW is posted. Every night I checked Schoology, unaware that he didn’t have access. Turns out he had Gmailed me a list of all the HWs, but it was out of order and had no dates on it. I had to do 5 HW assignments for only half credit, which is worsened by the fact that my original teacher had HW grades out of two, but the Sub put them in out of five. Luckily I figured it out, and my grades got better
8:52 dam this reminds me of a similar thing in my school, i got a bit suspicious that on every assignment i got a b in my RE class (catholic school), i was out of school for a day for some competition and missed the terms test, i didnt mention it to her because i thought it would be obvious as i wasnt even the only one, and i wasnt rly gonna remind her as i wasnt ready for the test. next week rolls around and she tells me i got a b but that she cant find my test
I dreamed about a man named Luxembourg, once. A sorceress named Ais had hired him and turned him into a terrifying flesh demon, then sent him out with a bunch of others to hunt me down. I thought it was the damn apocalypse
Did I somehow miss the one where the MC actually blocked their boss? Closest I noticed was the bus in the drive-through, but that wasn't exactly blocking, so I suspect I blanked on something.
0:42 good to see evidence they reincarnated austin powers into the cat
14:20 Nice to see Luxembourg getting some recognition!
Also the reason foreign languages are because no one learns Luxembourgish. (Despite it, German and whatever mess the French created being the national languages).
12:36 quit on the spot and get a job that pays
when I was in college, I had an English teacher take points off my essay because I went to her to get help writing the essay.
do you think she knows what teachers are for
The “Just leave me alone” story makes me think maybe this guy was just shit at his job and the manager knew she would be better off without his help
My attention span couldn't handle the long stories without minecraft parkour.
Are we supposed to believe that a professor teaching German in Germany at a German university struggles speaking German?
It was in Luxembourg, not Germany. The professor spoke Luxembourgian as their first language and was not a native German speaker. It was not a German university, it was just a German class as a foreign language elective
@@delirium4414Did you pay attention to the video? The poster literally starts with "since there is only one university in [Luxembourg], there is a tradition of students [from Luxembourg] going to university in [another country]", specifically to Strasbourg, which in this case is either Strasbourg, France (unlikely) or Strasbourg, Germany (far more likely, a train ride from one to the other is simple and also costs on 18 or so Euros). There is no Strasbourg, Luxembourg. I checked. Ergo, this was likely a professor in a German University teaching German as a foreign language to people not native to Germany, likely also one without much knowledge of Luxembourg as well, since they'd chosen to change the policy until the malicious compliance knocked them down a peg and got them to change it back to preserve their ego.
please let Damien read all the videos...
* and now we wait for the malicious compliance *
my genius is next level lol
No… just no…
12:32 thing is here in Canada they have to pay you minimum 3 hours/shift... so... a free hour each day!
From my experience the person told by the manager to keep out of the way when the bus turned up at the drive through was probably useless and more likely to be a hindrance than help
Honestly if my kid gave me a trophy for getting things I'd be delighted. I have ADHD and those would be dopamine hits. 😅😬 And I would keep them.
12:34 sue them if you can
Analyses is basically read as analysees, it's really weird
I've seen the Mike Meijer cat n the hat movie and there were adult jokes, but the intolerating thing for me was the laugh he had, it sounded so forced
I remember the laugh constantly being called “chortling” in the subtitles. And it wouldn’t surprise me if it was actually forced.
"Analyses" > "Ah-nal-ih-seez"
Hope you see this and it helps, hon! Love your videos! I'm wicked good at pronunciation, so I'm always happy to help break things down for others! (I'm not perfect, of course... I thought awry was aw-ree for over 5 years... but I didn't connect the word I'd seen in a random book with the word I already knew because my context comprehension was high and I didn't hear the word SPOKEN in context for a long time... So the connection took a long time to make.)
10:08 yeah I understand the kids frustration… my wife gets in these types of moods once a month….. but if any of my kids did this to my wife, they wouldn’t be able to sit on their asses for a good week or so.
8:40 all my art teachers be like
Generally university classes in Germany aren't mandatory to attend, some professors are weird though.
Also weird that they had a professor for German that makes that many mistakes
its just me and the bots rn :(

Quick question to anyone that has worked in a kitchen: did you workplace ever use the term "dish bitch" for who ever was on dishwasher duties?
No???
9:06, this is the problem with raising a Smart A$$. "Ask and ye shall recieve" is their coat of arms.
6:04 Nothing malicious about this. Someone volunteered to foot the bill for the burned textbook, and the OP let them. Everyone got what they wanted.
watch that cat in the hat movie. its incredible. i watched it as a child and it changed my life for the better
The end of this video was uncomfortably abrupt
@10:30, yeah when it's normal and expected, sure. but when i lived together with my ex i was the only one who had a paying job, who worked 5 days a week from 7 to 4. he didn't had a job, and all he did was just lazily sit on his pc all day playing games. no effort making of looking for a job, or do some of the house chores since he had more time during the day then i did. yet even though i was the only one working, he expected me to still cook dinner every day, do laundry once or twice a week, clean the apartment and all other house chores. only then i would like it if he appreciated and thanked me for doing literally everything in and around the house as his girlfriend while he gets to sit on his fat ass all day playing games. keep in mind he's a mentally healthy and stable guy, just being too lazy to do something. he would even argue and pick fights with me if i asked him to do one or two things for me, even when those things were small

Pronunciation of "analyses": "an ALICE Cs (as in the letter C but plural)"
9:00 Hi Tim! *Waves*
if needed i usually pronounce it (an-al-uh-sees)
i do also *really* want to say that i am not trying to actively correct his pronunciation, i know how the internet handles people that do that, i am simply trying to make sure that some information, that could probably be needed, is provided.
and again that's only the way i pronounce it.
Love from a Vaush and BlueTheNerd fan!
'Analyses' is the plural for Analysis, with the ending syllable pronounced 'sees' instead of 'siss'
An-AL-uh-sees. Analyses, the plural of Analysis.
5:00 sure its USP
Hi its 6:35 am and im on a flight thank you ur a life saver
Yes
Love emkay, clicked as soon as I saw (:
10:00 undertale's ps4 trophys be like:
Just to help with the word you hate.
If you know analysis, to say analyses instead of "sis" go "seas"
Analysis - uh-nal-eh-sis
Analyses - uh-nal-eh-seas
Just to help. I know how it is for awkward changes to words like that. I'm running into a lot with my job as of late...and I appreciate when someone can help me with those moments.

We have cases too in Russian. This isn't malicious compliance but just pure malice from one of my Russian teachers in highschool. For context I'm Italian and speak Italian but my mom being Ukrainian I also speak a fair bit of Russian. I understand almost all of it. Because I had a passion for foreign languages as a kid and still do, I settled for a diploma in foreign languages. Meaning: English, French and Russian. My very first teacher was mean and acted like she knew better than all of us. Or kind of. She berated me for not getting new glasses and that me trying to see well was very distracting to others. I had gotten those glasses made from a check I asked for that my mom found a coupon for. So the check was trash and he didn't fix my vision one bit. My glasses were as bad as they were before once then new lense was installed. So I sucked it up because my parents aren't rich. And we can't afford to go to our previous expensive private doctor nor could we afford to get a new set of lenses. This teacher though despite causing many people to hate her, was somewhat decent. We had a native Ukrainian girl join our class. The teacher refused to test her because she felt it was the most useless thing. "She's native Russian! What's the point in me testing her?" and so on. The next teacher we had would test her and grade her accordingly. But the last one... The last one was a total shitshow. She made one student cry and kicked her out of her class for disturbing others. She wanted to grade me a 2/10 because I refused to get tested. Then claimed she wanted to help me by giving me a second chance by making me do something prohibited by the school. We had an assembly the next day and rules say you can't get tested during assemblies because you need testimony of your test. Or else the teacher could unfairly grade you. And you can't force a student out of partecipanting the assembly they agreed to participate to if they wanted to or they could leave. She wanted to test me during that time and then save the mark in the system as if I was tested the day prior. I of course told her I wouldn't do anything that wasn't school policy as I didn't want to get in trouble for something she did. And then she came at me saying based off my behaviour towards her I deserved the low mark anyways. That day she oral tested my Ukrainian classmate. And she had the balls to give her a 9/10. She said everything perfectly. Yet she didn't get the best mark. This teacher expected us to be perfect in Russian. When even my mom admitted to not speaking a perfect Russian with her Ukrainian friends. If a native can't what about non natives? I'm native Italian mind you. I can't imagine the low mark I would've gotten beucase of her. As a side note she once got mad at me over her technical issues. She started a Google meet call (it was during quarantine) but I guess something happened with that call cause she started a new one. At the time I have several issues with our WiFi so it was disconnected and I was struggling to log onto the call. I logged in but it looked weird. I could hear all my classmates but I couldn't see their icons in the call. I though my Google meet was going crazy so I ignored it. Until she called my name and asked about me. I said I was present but she couldn't hear me. Despite I could hear her. She then got mad at me for not properly logging on. My mom got mad at me for not checking my phone to make sure I was on the right call. Because my classmates texted saying she had some issue with the first call and made a new one without closing the first call. Which is why I could hear everyone but not see them.
Yay anew video
Something fishy about that dishwasher story in the lab,
Hi Tim 😊
