Not only was this woman slandering the web developer’s name, but he ended up finding out through family member…

revenge petty reddit employee ceo boss trademark domain website graphic-design pay payday paycheck salary raise payout

'We settled for $75,000': Graphic designer enjoys an 'I-told-you-so' moment; after being denied a raise, he quits and buys up all of the company's .com domains for $1k, scoring a small fortune in court

'Say goodbye to your business, house and reputation': Client refuses to pay developer for the website they built, developer pulls the thread holding the client's life together

Have you ever had a pesky stray string poking out of your new shirt or cardigan? It looks harmless enough—just a stray bit of material that accidentally got left over from the manufacturing process.
