Under-Appreciated Machinist Walks Off the Job, Takes Vital Blueprints With Him, Leaves Company Nonfunctioning


This machinist was great at his job but quietly understated in his demeanor. This meant that he was seldom in line for a raise as he did not go to bat for himself. When he finally did and received a poor response, he took matters into his own hands... He quietly packed his things and walked out without saying a word. His silence was his fury.

It wasn't until the parts he was responsible for needed replacing that anyone thought to check what had happened to the blueprints. They were nowhere to be found… and while "John" swore that he didn't have them, this coworker thinks they know the truth. They believe that "John" knowingly exacted some parting revenge.

This brilliantly told story was shared to Reddit's r/ProRevenge subreddit by Redditor u/Solo1961, and it's one of the best that we've seen in recent months. u/Solo1961 had the privilege of witnessing the disaster unfold and did us the delight of sharing it with the world. 

Commenters delighted in this tale of revenge.

"Beware the quiet man who doesn't argue but who knows his worth. Beware working for the fool who doesn't value such a man," remarked Trin959.

"I heard a similar story of a guy who disassembled a complex progressive die," shared Santasotherbrother. "Spread the parts all over the shop, then left the country the next day."
