Broke Ex Whines About Free Pizza

Man, oh, man, this dude is a walking red flag. He bothers his ex about getting help during a rough time, and when she actually pulls through and gets the dude a giant pizza, he pitches a fit! Truly surreal. Check out another case of painfully obnoxious entitlement with this rude choosing beggar who got more than he bargained for.

Disrespectful Lazy Coworker Crosses Line, Gets Canned

This tale of revenge will strike a chord for anyone who has ever had to muddle through a tough job alongside a careless, inconsiderate, and awfully lazy coworker. Basically, this "Aleck" dude thought he was invincible, and screwed around on the job, while he was actively stealing. It's just good they caught him eventually. Check out another recent tale of pro revenge with this aggressive ex girlfriend who stole from her boyfriend's bank account.

1.

Text - r/ProRevenge Join u/TinyCatCrafts • 2h 1 A disrespectful, lazy coworker finally crossed a big enough line... and I got him fired with a single offhand comment. So, to set this up. I've worked in "Grocery Store" for about 6.5 years when this coworker is hired. I've worked on the front end registers for that entire time, with a couple shifts each week working for the sign/ price tag team. Basically, I've been there forever and *generally* tend to be someone some newer people go to with ques

2.

Text - I've also made sure to speak up if I saw a coworker doing something against the rules or that would be looked down on by management, and I always speak up *to the person*, not to supervisors or management. Usually things like "Hey, Supervisor is real picky about using your phone, l'd keep that in your pocket for now." or "Manager is here today, make sure you keep the belt clean, they're crazy about that." Point is, the things I say to fellow coworkers are meant to keep them from getting i

3.

Text - Ме: Ме. Aleck: The SmartAleck coworker. Super: One of my most favorite supervisors. Aleck gets hired on in a small wave of new hires for front end due to a bunch of other employees quitting in a short time over an issue with hours being cut. He is hired in along with three girls we will just call Sue, Jane and Liz. For the first few months or so, I don't have any issues with Aleck. He seems polite, respectful, he's always willing to... you know, do his job.

4.

Text - Sue and Jane are a bit rambunctious and loud and boisterous, but they're like 17. They're graduating soon, and I'm thinking maybe the job will settle them down after a bit and they won't goof off so much. Liz is a bit more reserved, but gets pulled into their outbursts when they're all working together (on her own, Liz was great.) At some point, Aleck and Sue start going out. They're always with each other, she's visiting him while he's working and vice versa, chit chatting while waiting

5.

Text - This entire group starts getting away with things that I have not only been reprimanded on, but threatened with firing over. Screwing around, shrieking and laughing and openly gossiping, loudly, in front of customers, while only paying enough attention to the customer to shoot a 'You want a bag?' here and there.

6.

Text - They don't clean at all, they leave trash at their stations. They're always on their phones, leaning right over on the counters and texting away while customers are at their lines checking out. (I was once written up for using my phone at the completely EMPTY self checkout.) One of them even dropped an F-bomb *in front of customers* and then started yelling at me for "telling her how to talk". All l'd said was "Whoah, hey, careful. Watch your language, you're at work." Then, the Pandemic

7.

Text - The other crap and garbage was frustrating, but this pissed me off. My best friend is Immunocomprimised, and here was this young, arrogant little jerk who was handling peoples food, touching his face constantly, never wearing his mask. He was risking lives. So I kept being a bit of a nag about it, until he turned to me one day and said "TinyCat, Shut the hell up. Who made YOU supervisor?" Oh. Okay. I mean I was trying to keep all this garbage on our level and give you a chance to stop scr

8.

Text - Not wearing his mask? Supervisor (and eventually manager, this one happened EVERY day) Texting on his phone? Supervisor. Standing around chatting when he should be on lot? Supervisor. Sitting down on the furniture displays holding hands with his girlfriend when they should have been working on returns? PHOTOGRAPH, and Manager. Many other instances of language, slacking, even what looked like it could have been a theft of tobacco products, etc, right to Supervisors. And yet... he still kep

9.

Text - Their antics are making more work for everyone else, they're making us all look bad to our customers, and we all know that if we'd pulled this crap we would have been out the door ages ago. It was like they were untouchable. (Surprise, turns out one of them has a relative working as a manager in another dept, and THAT manager is buddy buddy with our new Store Manager). By now, I felt pretty defeated. They could get away with dropping F-bombs, screaming and shrieking and rough-housing, str

10.

Text - So when I saw Aleck leaning over his register one day to buy himself a pack of candy... I almost ignored it. I thought for a brief second about telling him he wasn't supposed to buy things on his register... but I just bit my tongue. He didn't want to hear it from ME, after all. Then I saw Super. Oh, well. Might as well report yet ANOTHER thing he's doing against policy. Me: Oh, hey Super? Super: What's up? Me: Not much, but someone may want to remind Aleck that we aren't supposed to buy

11.

Text - Weirdly, she did not go speak to him. Instead, she vanished for about 20 minutes, and returned to me with a sheet of paper in hand. Super: Hey, so... did you happen to see what he was buying? Me: Uhh... yeah, it was *Specific Brand Candy*. Super: *looks down at paper* Huh. Okay. Thank you. Then she leaves again, and still doesn't go speak to Aleck. She goes to the Managers office. I had a day or two off, and didn't see her for a couple more after that due to schedules not lining up. About

12.

Text - Super: Oh, he's gone. Me: Like... suspended? Super: Oh no, gone gone. Me: Wait, what?! Super: Yeah. He wasn't just buying candy. He got Cash back, from his own drawer. Ме: ОMG. Super: OH WAIT, THERE'S MORE. Oh was there more. After seeing on the report of the transaction that he'd gotten cashback, so blatantly and obviously in the middle of his shift, she checked his history. Every employee has a store reward card to get their employee discount. You also have a unique ID code to log into

13.

Text - Super went back through the register logs to find every instance of him using his own Rewards Card under his own Log-In number, and found he had done this MULTIPLE times. On a few of them, she noticed some... discrepancies in the time stamps as compared to his schedule. Dude had been finishing up his shift, clocking out, going around the store to do his shopping... and then *logging into a register off the clock* and checking himself out. So my one little offhand comment, that I never wou

Woman Leaves Bad Review, Café Owner Brings In The Truth

It's just plain old messed up that people can be so nonchalant about destroying the reputation of restaurants, with employees that are just trying to make ends meet. This particular customer sounds like quite the two-faced nightmare. She'd lie and say everything was all good right before pulling a 180, and leaving a scathing review that wasn't even honest. 

1.

Text - O0000 Reviewed 4 days ago |via mobile Does not live up to the hype As a serious food lover, and a follower of the White Moose Cafe on social media, I was very eager to try out this cafe. Unfortunately it was an extremely disappointing experience. I ordered the club sandwich and it was worse than poor. At €9, I couldn't believe how poor it was, in both appearance and in taste (see photo). I would like to Zoë Dublin, Ireland 51 95 see the owner focus more on improving the food, rather than

2.

Text - The White Moose Café added 3 new photos. 21 June at 12:36 · * WHITE MOOSE Dear Zoe, Many thanks for your review. We actively encourage reviews, as it gives us an opportunity to rectify any issues that may arise during the customer experience. Just a few points to note:

3.

Text - 1. The Club Sandwich is one of our best sellers. It is a three-tier sandwich with a full chicken breast, bacon, tomato, Dubliner cheddar, lettuce and pesto mayo. Sorcha, our waitress, said that you wanted your Club Sandwich served to you on Ciabatta bread and not the usual three-tier-style sandwich. Is this why the appearance of the sandwich is not as expected? We have no problem

4.

Text - reconstructing our entire menu to suit your needs, but we don't expect you to whinge if we make a sandwich look the way you wanted it to look. It might also be an idea to include in your review that the sandwich was not made according to our required standard.

5.

Text - 2. The vast majority of our reviews are very positive. From time to time, customers can have an issue with something. If their issue is brought to our attention when it happens, we will do something about it. We will resolve their issue there and then. If you had told us you weren't happy with your sandwich, we would have replaced it with something else or not have charged you for it. When Sorcha asked you how your food was, you said "it was lovely". In my mind it's a little unfair to lie

6.

Text - 3. When people write TripAdvisor reviews, they usually think there is no recourse. They usually assume that the restaurant won't know who they are. They are unassailable. Fortunately for us, we were able to identify you. Your user ID is Zoe K, and when I put this into Facebook, up came your full name. When I was faced with the task of identifying you, I thought it might be some feat. However, seeing as you added me as a friend on my personal Facebook, one didn't need to be Sherlock Homes

7.

Text - 4. We have a great relationship with Q102, we love having the Blue Crew in the café. We have fun with you on our Snapchat. You have us on radio. It's a reciprocal kind of love. We even give you a 15% discount on your food. I see you also failed to mention you got this discount on your D.I.Y. sandwich.

8.

Text - 5. Finally, I see that there is a certain pattern to your reviews. I have noticed headings such as "Revolting", "5-star Horror", and "What a Kip" in your review history. I also note that you think a certain café in Clontarf "deserves to be closed down". I wonder are there two sides to these stories too? I wonder are you also failing to disclose important facts relating to these establishments?

9.

Text - You might not be a business owner providing employment to countless individuals from several countries, but l'd remind you that when you write unsubstantiated negative reviews on restaurants, you are seeking to damage the reputation of establishments that provide employment, and thereby you are putting the jobs and livelihoods of its employees at risk.

10.

Text - Perhaps if you were honest with the restaurant in the first place you wouldn't need to write all these reviews. You might also have more money in your pocket. I know if I wasn't happy with something, I wouldn't pay for it. So, not only would you appear to be less two-faced, but you'd be much richer too! Many thanks, Paul Stenson www.whitemoosecafe.ie

11.

Text - NOTE: Zoe K told me she would have no problem deleting the review (but to date this has not happened). It's funny how people can be so casual when it comes to damaging the reputation of a restaurant. They write the damaging review at the drop of a hat, and just as quickly they'll remove it when they are caught out.

Karen Uses Up Budget on Ugly Powerpoints, Gets Fired

In a stunning display of pig-headed incompetence, these clients managed to bust their budget on ridiculously bad designs, to the point that it cost Karen her job. For some other wild Karen behavior, here's an HOA Karen who complained about guide dog training. For some unprofessionalism, here's a customer who got mistaken for a job applicant, then the interviewers break the law.

1.

Text - Posted by u/6463694 10 hours ago Client wants us to create a design "exactly" like their ugly Powerpoint. We comply. oc L As a designer, I try to educate my clients on design and why something has to be done a certain way. My agency is not cheap, so we make it quite clear that they are paying for our experience and knowledge, not some Photoshop monkey. Most of the time, my clients are appreciative and enjoy the extra guidance and professional advice. Occasionally, we get "fun" jobs.

2.

Text - The sales pitch went well enough, the business owner, Bob, seemed like a decent guy and happy to trust our professional expertise. However, shortly after signing the deal, he brought on a new manager, Karen, who was put in charge of marketing, including the new website we were just contracted to do. It quickly became clear that Karen thought of herself as a multi-disciplinary genius and despises us because she thinks she can do better than a professional design agency. Karen loves sending

3.

Text - Karen did not like it one bit. Karen was rude, uncooperative, and removed Bob from the email threads when we tried to reach out to him to get his opinion. When we sent over a design, she would bitch about how it wasn't want she wanted, and scream over the phone while our team patiently explained why we couldn't design exactly as she wanted. Mainly: It would be ugly as heck and nobody would want to do business with them with a website like that. The last time Karen bitched about how we wer

4.

Text - Once again, Karen sent over a ridiculous 70mb Powerpoint. If we followed it exactly, it would look like a website from the 90s with the worst UX ever. We went through every little pixel of her PPT, asking her "So do you want us to copy this... EXACTLY?" To which she would reply with a smug YES. So we documented her instructions down to the letter to cover our asses. Once again, we asked Bob: "Are you SURE?" Reply: "Yes please hurry up and make those changes exactly as she asked." Okie dok

5.

Text - Karen once again replied, taking Bob out of the loop, "PERFECT! Now, it wasn't so hard to do things EXACTLY ASK I ASKED, was it? ;)". We waited. Bob exploded, demanding a meeting the very next day to explain why we were delivering such shoddy work. We go to the meeting and Karen starts demanding that we propose a completely new design. We presented all past designs, the document in which Karen confirmed that she wanted all the changes, the countless emails in which we painstakingly explai

6.

Text - I then pull out the contract and calmly point out the portion which stated the number of design proposals we would create. Karen had used up all of it. I had reminded her that she was limited to X number of proposals, but she clearly didn't remember any of it because she didn't bother reading our emails, and would keep talking or yelling over us when she spoke on the phone. I looked Bob in the eye and told him he could either pay extra for each additional new proposal Karen wants, or choo

7.

Text - I shrug. It's his business, and we're getting paid anyway, and he clearly doesn't appreciate our design expertise after all. The less time we spend arguing with them, the more time we could use to focus on my appreciative, good clients. We make Bob and Karen sign off on the design, and finish up the project quickly. Karen still tries to be difficult, but we stick to the contracted terms and she couldn't do anything. 2 months after the project ended, I get a call from Bob. He began with so

Murky Secrets of Various Industries

Not every job or role is as noble, omnipotent, or even as useful as they always seem to be. There are sketchy secrets in tons of industries, from how you're being charged to who exactly is on the other end of the phone. It can be a little unsettling to know how people actually feel about their own jobs, but it's not exactly shocking.

Lying Choosing Beggar Pays More Than He Bargained For

Man, oh, man, this was one especially cheeky choosing beggar. They tried to pull a fast one on that seller with some last minute haggling, but ultimately failed hard. Hopefully they learned their lesson in honesty and integrity. Check out another case of a choosing beggar being a handful with this choosing beggar that wanted an iPad for $40 and free delivery.

1.

Text - r/ChoosingBeggars u/MAStersOfTheUn1verse • 1d Join 1 Lying CB ends up paying more than he bargained for LONG Just a small CB but it pleased me how it worked out. TL;DR at the end as I realise I can waffle on. My mother in law was downsizing and had a decent office chair to get rid of, fully adjustable with lumbar support and all that jazz. If I'm honest I really wanted it but I don't have an office/study or anywhere to put it, my desk is my dining room table.

I heard her say "as you have said, you've come a long way to pick it up, if you don't want to go home empty handed it was originally listed for £30." CB reluctantly paid £30 and took hi

Tumblr Thread: Hilariously Dramatic Mishaps In Drama Club

This fun and wildly entertaining Tumblr thread shines light on some of the hilarious, and entirely ridiculous mishaps that can occur in drama club. Just picturing that huge rubber fish sailing into the audience to the horror of all the parents is enough to get the laughs rolling. Can't imagine what kind of silence must've ensued after that. Check out some more gold from Tumblr with this thread about cultures colliding over how to measure time and space.

Text - lucasbieneke Apparently my director went to see a production of West Side Story a few years ago, and the guy playing Chino forgot his gun before coming out for his final scene. Once it got to the big scene where he is supposed to shoot Tony, he screeched "Poison Boots" and kicked the actor playing Tony until he went down. The girl playing Maria then had to jerk the shoe off of Chino's foot, and had to do the gunshot scene asking "How many kicks Chino? How many kicks, and one kick left for

Text - Jesus screamed "JESUS CHRIST YOU STABBED ME". Since that Jesus had to be taken down due to a bad case of stab-itis, the backup Jesus came in, but he weighed significantly less than the original Jesus- which would have been fine, except that at the end the cross was supposed to ascend upwards with Jesus on it, and the weights hadn't been adjusted. So Jesus, instead, ROCKETED UP into heaven (or, just, above the stage). soulpunchftw This is wild from start to finish

Originally, the actors were going to stroll on stage with our Lefou hauling in the really neat (and real!) taxidermied deer head that we had found in a local thrift store. Now, t

What follows is an account of the ways this dog toy managed to be the nightmare prop of the six show run. Opening Night: The stagehand, who was supposed to drop the bird from the ceiling catwalk, missed his cue and didn't drop the it. Lefou's actor rolls with it and does an excellent job of looking around foolishly before getting cuffed upside the head by Gaston. T

Director hauls the deer head down from it's place on the tavern wall and tells Gaston and Lefou to revert to the old blocking i.e. no gunshot, no bird, just walk in with trophy. During Gaston and Lefou's conversation, gun shot sound goes off and a stagehand throws the bird onto the stage..from the wrong side of the stage. Lefou and Gaston stare at it in awkward silence for a solid thirty seconds before Lefou makes off-script, subtle jok

Of course, we told neither of them about the other's plan, so during the very last show, we were all waiting in the wings to see

Aggressive Girlfriend Steals From Bank Account, Pro Revenge Ensues

What a fine example of how those liars of the world just can't argue with that sweet video evidence. This girl was a real piece of work. Fortunately, the pro revenge was successful. 

1.

Text - r/ProRevenge u/justwaititgetsbetter • 2d + Join 8 N 7 e 3 "Fairly aggressive" girlfriend stole from my bank account, so I sent her academic career into a nosedive I'm a senior at a large state university. This happened in the first semester of my freshman year. I was selected for an honors-type program that placed me in a co-ed dorm building with every other student in the program. As a dumb freshman, I rushed into a

2.

Text - relationship with a freshman girl who lived right above me (we'll call her Megan). It was convenient for me to date someone who lived so close, but everyone else in our building hated Megan because she talked a lot, and almost exclusively about herself. She bragged often about being a "fairly aggressive" person, but somehow I overlooked that mile-wide red flag. Right after Thanksgiving break, at the end of an evening class, I got a call from my mom, who noticed some unusual activity on my

3.

Text - At this point, I trusted Megan, but I decided to ask her about the money right away. She denied any involvement and suggested that I cancel my debit card. After a really long phone call to the bank, I did just that.

4.

Text - Next, I reached out to Grubhub customer service on Twitter: "Hey, my card was stolen and used for food orders on these dates. Can I have the receipts?" They sent me the first and last receipts, but they had to "redact" the personal info of the account holder. I say "redact" in quotes because they just used the Snapchat draw tool, and Megan's name was still clearly visible on both receipts. What's more: The most recent receipt was only two hours old. She was probably still eating when I ch

5.

Text - So I texted her again: "I have the receipts from Grubhub. Are you sure you didn't make those orders?" Her reply: "F*** YOU FOR SUSPECTING ME!" ("Fairly aggressive," wouldn't you say?) I hatched a plan to collect security camera footage of her picking up the order from that evening. However, by midnight, Megan arrived at my door in tears and confessed to everything, plus she admitted to being a serial shoplifter. Exhausted, I sent her away and decided to deal with everything in the morning

6.

Text - Well, less than two days later, she entered my room when I wasn't looking. I was sitting at my desk when I noticed her standing silently behind me. Megan: "Give me my stuff. Where's my stuff?" Me: "What stuff?" Megan: "YOU KNOW." I did not know. She tore through the room, looking for something that she refused to identify. Just as quick as she came, she was gone, and I locked the door because obviously this wasn't over yet.

7.

Text - Within a minute, she was back. She stood outside my door, knocking and demanding I let her back inside. The knocking quickly got more violent. She started shouting "I KNOW YOU'RE F***ING IN THERE!" and "OPEN THE MOTHERF***ING DOOR!" Mind that we lived in this building with students in our program who all know each other, and all of them could hear her. Pretty quickly, Megan was rattling the handle of my door. Next, she began throwing herself at it, shoulder- first, trying to break it down

8.

Text - Meanwhile, I saw my heavy wooden door bending and buckling. I even heard it crack a bit. My RA was on duty in another building, so he sent three of his colleagues to de-escalate the situation. They brought Megan downstairs, where she revealed that the "stuff" she wanted was just the t-shirt and keychain that she gave me for my birthday. Whatever; I let her have those. I still just wanted this to be over.

9.

Text - However, once I shared my story with the resident life staff, they filed university paperwork to place a no- contact order between me and Megan. They also recommended I contact the campus police, who then told me I should get my stolen money back in small- claims court (I couldn't even get there without a car or money to pay for an Uber. Sorry, Judge Judy). At the request of the campus police, I also contacted the Title IX office at my school, sending them the story of everything you've r

10.

Text - Valentine's Day. I thought it was a joke, but they really did that. When the day of the hearing finally arrived, the no- contact order was still in effect, but a few of my friends had kept tabs on Megan. For starters, she failed all of her classes in the fall. Someone in my math course confessed that Megan had tried to sleep with him while she was dating me, and he had to repeatedly tell her no. Even worse, Megan kept telling a twisted version of the whole story to try and turn my friends

11.

Text - I arrived alone at the disciplinary board office, unsure what to expect. The board consisted of grad students, and the hearing was expected to run into the night. Unlike me, Megan did not come alone. She brought both of her parents as "character witnesses" (that wasn't even a thing here; this wasn't a real courtroom, as you'll soon see). And that's not all: Megan's parents also paid a lawyer to defend her against the charges. The board knew that was unnecessary, but Megan's parents believ

12.

Text - Jimmy had already read my account of the events from the fall, and thanks to my screenshots of Grubhub receipts, he said there was an okay shot of the charges sticking. Then I told him something l'd kept secret for months: When Megan tried to break down my door and I whipped out my phone to text my RA, I also filmed the whole thing. Jimmy couldn't get enough of the video. There was Megan, kicking and screaming and clearly trying to break into my dorm room. It was all the evidence I needed

13.

Text - In that instant, I realized that Megan really had convinced everyone I was the liar. In her version of the story, I gave her permission to buy food using my account. She told her parents that she'd asked me politely for her belongings, which l'd rudely hidden from her in my dorm room. In Megan's story, I was the sociopath trying to ruin her reputation. Before I unveiled the video, it was her word against mine.

14.

Text - I still didn't want revenge... Even after finding out that Megan tried to cheat on me. But when I saw her parents flipping out at the video: "WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US YOU DID THIS?!" and her lawyer raising hell: "THIS EVIDENCE WAS NOT PROVIDED IN PRE-TRIAL DISCLOSURE!" and a board member standing over him: "SIR, THIS IS NOT A COURT OF LAW. PLEASE RETURN TO YOUR SEAT" and him shouting "OBJECTION!" and her replying: "WE DON'T HAVE OBJECTIONS, THIS ISN'T A COURT OF LAW" and Jimmy, my new best

15.

Text - The board compromised. Her family paid back most of the money she stole ("most" because two of the six orders had the same price and the lawyer convinced the board I had duplicated an order), and Megan was forced to move into a different dorm building. This probably would've helped her anyway because every student in our program's building knew everything she'd done and lied about. They wouldn't speak to her, and no one wanted to be her roommate. By the time she had to move buildings, she

16.

Text - Last I heard, Megan returned as a part-time student, but I never saw her again because the no-contact order still stands. I'm now Facebook friends with the guy Megan tried to seduce. Oh, and Jimmy and I connected on LinkedIn. As for me, well... I no longer date "fairly aggressive" реople. TL;DR – My ex stole money for food, lied about it, tried to break down my door, lawyered up for a university hearing, got caught by video evidence, lost the support of her parents, lost respect of her fr

Medical Transportation Employee Maliciously Complies For Good

The worst thing to see is a rule that only serves to end up hurting someone else. This poor elderly lady just needed the extra help, but the inspector had to go and have zero chill, and complicate that process. Fortunately, the medical transportation driver was ready to disregard all that BS, and do what was necessary to help the elderly lady in need. 

1.

Text - r/MaliciousCompliance u/witwats • 2y + Join "I don't work here anymore...hey, boss, got an opening?" M Worked for a Medical Transportation company that had a contract with Medicaid. One of their many rules was that you could not provide any assistance to the patient INSIDE of their house. One elderly lady had an old house with a very small foyer that you had to climb three steps to get to the main floor. The only other entrance was around back and up two and a half flights of rickety step

2.

Text - Upstairs. She's in a wheelchair. Common sense says take her in the front door, up three stairs and she's home on the level she lives on. Medicaid says take her up the outside stairs, dump her in the bedroom upstairs and let her worry about getting down to the living room level. We ignored their policy and took her in the front door anyway. A random inspection by a random inspector showed that we were not in compliance. We appealed, the inspector came out and saw the different options and

3.

Text - Nope. From then on, when the driver arrived at her house, he would get her out of the van in the sidewalk, and then get on the radio and tell the boss to shove his stupid job. Now that he was no longer an employee, he was free to assist this lovely person into her front door and up the stairs. Once finished, they would come back to the van, tell the boss they'd reconsidered, and ask for their job back. Boss was ALWAYS understanding and took them back, but very carefully noted the 10 to 15
