'I wanted revenge': Contractor engineer charges company $9000 to press a button after they try to cheat him


Why is it that so many businesses would rather lose $10 in the name of saving $1? Time and time again, extreme cost-saving measures end up costing more in the long run. This engineer left the company they worked for shortly after completing the installation of an important mystery machine (No, not the one from Scooby-Doo.) For some reason, the manager at the client's site kept their number and contacted them personally to come and rectify an error with the machine. They agreed that the engineer would come in on the weekend to complete contract work on the machine at twice their usual rate. Everything was going according to plan until the manager came in and told them that they would no longer be able to pay them. They still needed to get the mystery machine working, didn't they? This moment of cheapness would cost them big time. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/ProRevenge subreddit by the engineer, u/AwkLemon, who shared their brilliant story of revenge.  Scroll on to see the story and top reactions below.
