![‘I [had to] remind him that he confiscated [it]’: Boss confiscates employee’s phone, wonders why they’re not answering it – FAIL Blog](https://funnynewshubb.com/core/views/fd676332bc/assets/img/jeg-empty.png)
Remember when your parents used to confiscate your cell phone for not answering it? Leaving you with no cell phone to answer their subsequent calls with. You might not have been able to text your friends either, but not being tied to a requirement of constant communication and surveillance was freeing.
It turns out that experience is not lost to the past, and you may be able to relive it (without clocking 88 miles an hour in a DeLorean.) All you need is a boss who is more concerned with maintaining their control than they are with logical reasoning and who is particularly attached to their ability to remain in constant communication with you.
When you inevitably have to miss a phone call, leading them to confiscate it as if you’re a child, then the only thing to do is wait and see how long it takes them to notice the power they have just inadvertently relinquished.
Read on for this delightful tale of malicious compliance. Next, see this insurance worker who was told to just do their job and so approved as many claims as possible.
