I skimmed through that manual and laughed a lot. The level of asshole the CIA had to find to write that manual was top tier choice select dickhead plus 😙👌. The ideas they came up with were so fantastic at being annoying and destructive with plausible deniability that they must have been raised with Mozart level of child abuse paired with the perfect genes at being a real sneaky pain in the ass for pleasure. Check these out:

Fuel lines to gasoline and oil engines frequently pass over the exhaust pipe. When the machine is at rest, you can stab a small hole in the fuel line and plug the hole with wax. As the engine runs and the exhaust. tube becomes hot, the wax will be melted; fuel will drip onto the exhaust and a blaze will start.

Put a piece of finely grained emery paper half the size of a postage stamp in a -place where it will wear away rotating brushes. The emery paper-and the motor-will be destroyed Lin the resulting fire.

The transportation section has me lmao 🤣

See that cars are put on the wrong trains, Remove the labels from cars needing repair and put them on cars in good order. Leave couplings between cars as loose as possible.

Make train travel as inconvenient as possible for enemy personnel. Make mistakes in issuing train tickets, leaving portions of the journey uncovered by the ticket book; issue two tickets for the same seat in the train, so that an interesting argument will result; near train time, instead of issuing printed tickets write them out slowly by hand, prolonging the process until the train is nearly ready to leave or has left the station. On station bulletin boards announcing train arrivals and departures, see that false and misleading information is given about trains bound for enemy destinations.

For this following section, they must have spied on one of my old work places because they described it perfectly:

This shit hilarious!! I'm still laughing. Right above it:

Misunderstand all sorts of regulations concerning such matters as rationing, transportation, traffic regulations.

The CIA created a manual on how to be as annoying as possible.

  • Give a condescending lecture about their work but focus on irrelevant things.
  • If someone seeks mentorship for what they need to do to position themselves for career improvements, give wishy-washy responses that give the overall impression that you want to set up as many outs to deny the promotion as possible.
  • Give them a task about something that is completely new to them and demand results by the end of the week.
  • Continue pursuing projects even after their useful parts have been determined unfeasible.

This applies in any organization that has hierarchy. If you think corporations are immune I have some war stories.

I wasn't saying it's unique to government, I was making a suggestion for people in the US government ;3

You have war stories because this is actually the current corporate governance handbook.
