'Sir, I sent those requests to you two weeks ago': Commander demands every expenditure passes through his approval, subordinates oblige


Nothing receives a coordinated response quite like an overly-stupid directive, especially when that directive is passed by a superior who everyone already intensely dislikes. Usually, there has been a long road of headaches caused by micromanagement before the subordinates reach this point —so the superior has it coming. 

When you're in charge, it's important to be specific, fair, and rational with your commands, especially in the military — where following orders is incredibly important and drilled into soldiers from the moment they set foot in boot camp. These enlisted men will take any chance presented to maliciously comply with the vague orders of a malevolent commander, and there has been no shortage of stories online proving this.

So, when this micromanaging commander demanded that every expenditure pass across his desk, his subordinates were happy to oblige his command to the letter. It wouldn't take long before this would (predictably) blow up in his face.
