'A complete garbage person': Boss fires worker for stupid reason, worker ruins their marriage by revealing their affair with a coworker


An employee got ruthless revenge on their terrible boss when they ran into him in a bar, quickly bringing a certain end to the boss's marriage after revealing a long-standing affair that the boss had been having with a coworker.

Redditor and dejected employee u/NALORpod, posted this story to the r/pettyrevenge subreddit. The account details a series of events at his old workplace under his terrible boss.

u/NALORpod worked as a meatpacker… while his boss was busy packing his meat with the receptionist. u/NALORpod explains that he would often come into work for the afternoon shift and find that the receptionist, who was supposed to be running clock-ins, was in "locked door" meetings with the boss. He would take over the clock-in desk while she was absent before starting his work, sometimes getting foul looks from the boss when the pair finally left the office. u/NALORpod explains his philosophy on the situation as "Not my husband or wife. Not my problem."

We continue this dance of me covering her station and getting in trouble for it for a few weeks until an ice storm hit. u/NALORpod got fired for stupid reasons, leaving the desire for revenge burning.

‘Home improvement store or a dog park?’: Customer asks employees how they feel about dogs overtaking home improvement stores


It's become quite trendy in the United States to take your beloved pooches everywhere, to the annoyance of this customer who wanted to shop without dogs around. It does seem that people can take their dogs almost anywhere these days — into stores, cafes, restaurants, and so on. However, this customer is sick of seeing dogs at a place where they've historically been allowed to hang out – at home improvement stores. 

U/drcrankenstein took to the r/HomeDepot subreddit, usually reserved for posts from employees, to ask the workers what their thoughts were. While he got downvoted something fierce on some answers, employees seemed surprisingly mixed about their feelings toward our furry friends. 

Some absolutely love getting to pet dogs, as it improves their day. However, for others, they don't care for the messes and fights that dog owners bring to their stores. Not to mention people who have allergies or are afraid of dogs, there's just no escaping pets at these stores! The OP certainly has much to think about before their next trip to the home improvement store.

'He was... gaming the system': Sneaky guest acts like a 'major jerk' until quick-thinking hotel employee gets pro revenge on him


This long-time hotel clerk was familiar with his employer's rules — and he got the chance to use them against one customer who was entitled and rude. 

As u/Ancient_Ice shared to r/ProRevenge, he worked at a hotel franchise for some time. One day, he happened to come in for his shift and saw his coworkers were upset over the way a guest treated them. Surely guests can be demanding and harsh, but apparently this guest went above and beyond by screaming at the young employees. Since he'd been working there for some time, the OP managed to get a little bit of information on this rude guest, and used the hotel's rules to his own advantage. Turns out this guest actually worked at another hotel, and wasn't even following the rules set by his own employer.

'The sheer audacity': Company rejects interview candidate, then reaches out for unpaid help months later


There are so many red flags in this story that we lost count. Let's start with the fact that it's one thing for a company to reach out to a former employee for help or advice. However, it's another to reach out to someone they never hired - in fact, someone they fully rejected. And for unpaid advice nonetheless! The 'sheer audacity' is right!

 

This thread, which was posted to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit by u/Lumberjvvck, serves as yet another example of how many employers these days have no shame when it comes to ethics and boundaries. We haven't even addressed the fact that the Redditor is pretty certain that the person who reached out was the person who received the job offer. How did HR just blindly give away the Redditor's contact information? As we said earlier, there are too many red flags going on here. What's even more upsetting is that if you scroll through the comments below, it's remarkable how unremarkable this phenomenon is. Virtually everyone who commented had been through a similar experience. This company should learn to develop some class.
