How can i annoy my stupid bitch boss? (lemmy.world)

I work in a public school district and i visit about a dozen different schools. Bosses are making us share our calendars, thinking they'll be able to track us and catch us doing something wrong. I'm planning to add "started my period" every couple of weeks. Are there other good outlook tricks to fuck with them?

Spam personal fake notes everywhere. "Joey's little league game", "Call dentist" and make completely useless ones like "remember the thing" for maximum annoyance.
Add obscure religious holidays and random countries' national festivities. "Bhutan Losar day. Get decorations."
Put in washed up celebrities' birthdays "David Hasselhoff's b-day".
Include random bad album release anniversaries. "18 year release anniversary of Kid Rock - Live Trucker".
Register inaccurate astrological milestones with random advice. "Leo ascending in Pluto. Good day for new beginnings".
Every once in a while add events that are just random characters such as "HERDBhbcdbcnn nnnnnnnn" which you can later claim were added accidentally from your pocket.
Make sure some of the events are written IN ALL CAPS
Be lavish with your use of exclamation marks!!!!!1!!111
Occasionally add reviews of your day scheduled for a few hours later as if using the calendar as a diary, including details about health conditions and sex life. "Rough day today.. had a lot of work and didn't want to get frisky because of the hemmorhoids"
Write down random math calculations here and there that suggest you are confusing the calendar with an excel spreadsheet "=27.5/3"
Include the most bland and sad motivational quotes every couple of days with several typos as if written ina rush: "YO cndo it!!!" "YOU WILL ALEAYS BE BEeeTIFUL, gril. Ownit!!!"
Add fake Google search queries as if confusing the calendar with your search bar "cheap viernamese restaurant charlottesville" "how dolphins swim so fast ND jump"

Extra bonus points if you can invite him to the "events" and get the calendar to send him push notifications for occasional 5:30 am "wake up early for the thing". If he accuses you of bad faith for inviting him, tell him it's the default and you keep forgetting to remove him.

Not only will this annoy him, it will render the system impossible to supervise and you can always claim you ALWAYS organize your personals through your calendar and this "is just how i organize".

Good luck and give em hell.

Edit: Elaborated and more ideas

Edit 2: Few more ideas.

I love these! Thank you! When we take a personal day we now have to invite her to it in our calendar. I think I'll be taking some extremely personal days.

Beautiful! Godspeed, brave soul.

This was a fantastic read. OP I hope you do this (and then tell us about it or post screenshots)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 29 minutes ago)

Thank you. I consider myself a decent managerial saboteur / supervisional terrorist

Some people might take this further like spamming tech support/ IT with nonsensical tickets that somehow end up being something brought up to management which would force them to determine some policy (which they hate doing)

Others might find it amusing to open debates about how certain harmless terminology used in calendar events may cause offense to "people we should be looking after" due to "ideological considerations" "possibly triggering" even if no relevant members of any group are in the team. Some people may bring this up in HR.

The key concepts to destroy any organizational effort are "techincally allowed", "plausible deniability" and "could get someone in a lot of trouble".

You are petty and disagreeable to overreaching management, I love you.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Best part is, public school teachers are basically unfireable in most parts of the developed western world for anything short of Child endangerment, so they probably can get away with all of this and more. :D

Yeah. Worst I'll get is probably an email.
