This employee decided to call their boss’s bluff, writing that their boss “thinks she’s won.”
It’s not every day you hear about a boss this overbearing. U/Nerdfury83 shared a story about their new manager at their job—her title really should be “micromanager.” The OP works at a phone job, taking calls that have recorded logs.

While phone jobs are notoriously strict about the time employees spend on calls, this boss went far out of her way to antagonize the OP. And although the OP calls their story malicious compliance, it seems like their boss was bullying them to the point that they had no choice but to document the behavior. When your boss is the one bullying you, telling HR about it is the route you’ll have to go to avoid being let go. The OP also had the bright idea to screenshot their conversations—in the end, they really did get everything in writing.
