In a recent post on r/MaliciousCompliance, Reddit user Warm_Tomato2126 shared a story from his time working in Africa.
The man had been flying to and from work on a 10-week in-country, 2-week at-home rotation for four years, however, someone at the head office decided to cut costs and changed his flight, saving the company about £80 (roughly $96).
The employee obliged but he also needed additional hotel and taxi bookings, which ended up costing the company way more than the ticket itself.
This employee had his work travel routine planned to the smallest detail but the company still thought they could improve it

The original poster (OP) answered people’s questions in the comments
And most of them liked the way he handled the situation
But some didn’t find it amusing at all
