I went to a Baptist parochial school. The church owned all the sound equipment and they had trained me, since I was like 10, in how to operate it. The school was allowed to use the equipment, but in general no one at the school had the technical know-how. So they relied on the church’s A/V crew to run things. Until my sophomore year. 1/</p>

Shouty person<p>There was an article I read a few months ago about a film director (or producer?) who was being given unreasonable demands by the people holding the purse strings.

Wendy Palmer<p>I’ve recruited my teen for a bit of malicious compliance.</p><p>Background. I help run a basketball comp in our small town, and the rec centre manager is petty and small-minded and just takes every little opportunity to make our volunteer experience less fun.</p><p>His latest rule is that the kids aren’t allowed on the courts before our booking start time of 4pm. They all walk over from school and start arriving around 3.30, and generally start shooting hoops and warming up while they wait. Now dozens and dozens of kids have to mill around in the small foyer because god forbid community members get free time on courts that are just sitting empty anyway. (No one is ever going to book them from 3-4 in the basketball season, if ever)</p><p>We obligingly extended our booking back to 3.45 as a peace offering and the hope he’d meet us halfway. But there’s no budging: those kids will not get a free 15 minutes. They will have to stand in the foyer…bouncing their balls…staring at unused courts…blocking the entrance to the pool…getting in everyone’s way because they’re kids and there’s a lot of them…until the lights gets turned on at 3.45.</p><p>(bear in mind our little comp pays $35,000 a year to the rec centre, we’re all volunteers, it’s a tiny easy bonus he could throw to us and the parents when eg the scoreboards don’t work all season and there’s never enough chairs etc, and it would make HIS life so much easier if the kids were happily occupied and not standing in his foyer.)</p><p>But no, those lights stay off until 3.45.</p><p>Unless.</p><p>Someone shows up at 3.15 and hires a half-court for the casual rate of $2 per person for half an hour.</p><p>Someone whose mother has given him $2.</p><p>Then they have to turn the lights on. And they have to let him on. And they have to chase the other kids off. The basketball volunteers won’t be doing it. It’s not their rule, they’re not obliged to enforce it.</p><p>Teen has somehow been unaware of the malicious compliance concept, he’s pretty excited.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/MaliciousCompliance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MaliciousCompliance</span></a></p>
