Somehow I find the photo of a muscle guy with no clothes insulting for an "office" story.
It is just so disconnected from each other?

And I seriously doubt most office workers find a ribbed extreme muscle guy representative of office workers. And especially not the women.

It's not lie a huge issue, it's just a meme, sorry for pointing out I found the guy misplaced,
You all go ahead and have fun without much thought.

And? Does that make it better or worse? Personally I don't give a shit that he is a meme guy I knew that, but he is not the right meme guy for this sort of meme IMO.

Memes are conceptual not literal

It's a story about workers flexing their strength against the boss and having the boss back down. It seems to fit just fine to me.

I can't possibly imagine why you seem to be so offended over all this.

Except it's not really malicious compliance, it's just compliance.

Its not malicious compliance to hang up on a customer in the middle of a call, or ignore other customers calling during business hours because your boss mandates you take lunch at an exact time? Whatever you say, buddy.

The muscle of the Union.

OP sees the malicious compliance as a "chad" move, hence the use of Giga Chad meme.

Maybe, but I seriously doubt most office people find a ribbed extreme muscle guy representative of office workers. And especially not the women.

It's not about representation, it's a symbol for being cool, visually unrelated to the person you're calling a chad. And it's intentionally extreme.

Edit:
Just for you I created this:

This should reflect the avergae idea of your office worker way better.

Cool drawing. 👍
Except part of the issue was the naked part.
He should wear a shirt, or other form of typical office clothing.
