| 0:00.0 | Welcome to R-Slash, a podcast where I read the best post from across Reddit. |
| 0:03.9 | Today's subreddit is R-Slash malicious compliance, where OPEAT gets a month-long paid vacation |
| 0:09.4 | for FREE. Our next Reddit post is from DodoHead. So I've posted a few stories about my |
| 0:14.8 | wonderful old manager. Let's call our Samantha. This story is about a co-worker, Joe, and from day one, |
| 0:21.3 | it was obvious that Joe was one of the hardest working people on the team, and Samantha couldn't |
| 0:26.4 | stand him. So this is a few years into Joe's tenure with the team, and for whatever reason, |
| 0:32.0 | Samantha decides to put Joe on permanent notice, which is basically an HR notice that you have six |
| 0:37.6 | months to get your act together or you're fired. The reason that Samantha wrote down on the paperwork |
| 0:42.8 | was improper attitude. You see, Joe was a type of guy to always speak his mind, and while |
| 0:49.2 | management says that they love this, brutal experience shows that this is a lie. The problem with |
| 0:54.6 | this permanent notice is that it also comes with penalties. You can no longer work from home. |
| 0:59.5 | They literally take your laptop to stop you. You get no approved overtime, and no learning new |
| 1:04.4 | things or assignments. Oh, and no raises or bonuses either. You have to prove that you can do your |
| 1:10.2 | job well, and then after six months, if you're not fired, the manager can extend with an additional |
| 1:15.5 | probation period of another six months. January of every year is when we find out about our raises |
| 1:21.2 | and bonuses from the previous year. And to put it delicately, that January they screwed us to the |
| 1:27.4 | point that one person walked out the door and two older employees who had worked there for over |
| 1:32.1 | 30 years took retirement packages. Come February, we are drowning in work. Joe can't work overtime |
| 1:39.9 | or learn new things. Manager's orders, remember? Well, this is the middle of Joe's probation period |
| 1:45.9 | because Samantha predictably extended his notice. So this is where we find ourselves in mid-March |
| 1:53.1 | year 2020. Cuma-licious compliance. During the lockdown, they send the whole company home, |
| 2:00.7 | and everyone's working from home, except Joe. He's home, he's just not working. He technically can't. |
