"Why was he training CS to not answer questions?"

Really surprised how little is known about Social Engineering in the comments. Social Engineering is a branch of hacking centering around obtaining information or encouraging employees to take actions they otherwise should not. My career has largely centered around offensive security and my job at the time was to perform a social engineering pentest on Blizzard CS.

CS was obviously not trained to not answer customer questions. Come on now. ( ͠° ͟ʖ ͡°)

"He's not giving you the names, bud." Best manager ever, lol.

“You see, the problem isn’t with your staff. It’s with you…”

[storminmormin]

Man imagine falling for a fake social engineering attack from in-house and automatically getting fired. That’s a toxic work environment.

This is actually an extremely interesting short, downright criminal that you don't have more views on it. Work in a CSR but its universally applicable to most jobs.

It’s nice that your boss understood you and had your back. When someone who outranks you has a good moral compass and looks out for their team, culture can shift in the right direction.

“Im firing you for not doing what I didn’t train you” lol

[benjaminnewman]

"Too many people are answering questions."
"Who are they?"
"I'm not answering that."

[jackbennett]

Literally saved many employees from abuse at the hands of an incompetent, negligent (typical) boss

[finebook]

Typical manager would rather fire all of his employees than actually manage.

[carnagekenon]

You are a HERO for not getting those employees fired for company incompetence

[taffacre]

People need to understand the implication of this in EVERY JOB FIELD.

[tscoms]

As an internal Auditor this warms my heart

[i_cam]

your boss is so cool for backing you up like that

Management in a nutshell:
"Something wrong with this work flow... Am I the problem? No... No, couldn't be... I'm without fault."

[ThePiachu]

Good on you for actually addressing the issue and not the symptom!

[mauri]

With a voice like that I would instinctively answer any questions you asked me.

[jonmcninch]

"Sorry, bud, he's not going to give them to you" 😂

[darkin]

"You see the problem is not with your employees, its with.... me.. because i Have the most badass name, the most luscious hair and the most sexy voice.
They never stood a chance bud"
