New Officer Makes Subordinate Their Travel Agent, They Book the Officer the Worst Possible Flights
Some people just can't be trusted with a single shred of power. As soon as they manage to find themselves with even a semblance of it, they don't hesitate for a second to wield it over every person they possibly can with a stupid fury. I wish that I could say that these people don't succeed but, based on the stories we see, that's often not the case. It's as if these people have never once stopped to consider or care about other people and the effect that their actions have on their lives. Let's be honest, there are probably not enough cylinders firing up there to handle that type of empathy and introspection.
This thread was posted to the popular r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit by Reddit user, u/ItsCoolImWithTheBand, who shared their story about a new Lieutenant who made them their de facto personal travel agent.

Only Female Employee in the Office Discovers Her Boss and Male Colleagues Call Her Jessica Rabbit
This woman found out in the worst way that all the men on her team call her Jessica Rabbit, and that it was her own boss who gave her the nickname.
She posted this thread to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit, where she was met with heated responses from other Redditors in the comments supporting her and encouraging her to seek legal action. So here's what happened: one day at work, she needed to walk over to her male coworker's desk to get him to send her a document (classic). When he opened his phone to do so, she could see that her name was saved in his contacts as Jessica Rabbit. The man obviously was completely embarrassed and was pushed to reveal that the nickname was his boss's doing.
To make matters worse, once she reported the matter to HR, they basically said it was not worth it to pursue this. Why do these workplace dynamics still exist in 2022? Come on, guys! Grow up. May this serve as a How-To of what NOT to do at work. For more workplace drama, take a look at this story about a new employee who quit after his leave negotiations were rejected.

'As I am in mid-sentence, he pushed me back': Enraged customer attacks delivery driver over delivery time
It's no great secret that people tend to get worked up about things that really just aren't worth it. Sure, waiting for an unexpectedly long amount of time for your food can be frustrating, and by the time it arrives it's usually cold, but you're forced to begrudgingly eat it in the state that it's in because your hunger has reached unbearable levels. People tend to get irrational when they're hungry but going as far as to attack a delivery driver over a late delivery is downright insane, especially when a message to the app's customer service team would suffice.
Hell, I waited two hours for pizza delivery from Uber Eats just last night. The app seemed to think that the rider was delivering on a bicycle but after sitting at a gas station for close to 40 minutes I began to get worried for her well-being. The thought of a woman riding her bike alone down the streets of Brooklyn and coming to a sudden, prolonged, halt started all sorts of wild thoughts going in my mind. When she finally arrived, she wasn't on a bike, but riding in the back of a big SUV. Did this girl suffer a mechanical issue with her bike that led her to need to be picked up? Or was she running a scam in which she and a partner were fielding multiple deliveries at once in order to maximize revenue? The world may never know… but she definitely wasn't wearing cycling-friendly clothing.
If we're tying this back into the point here, at no point did I consider yelling at or attacking my driver when they arrived. A was hungry and incredibly sleepy, but sometimes that's just the way these things go.
Unfortunately for this delivery driver the people they were delivering to had a different opinion, and they found themselves accosted and then assaulted -which ended in a brawl and police involvement.
