In one fell swoop of anger, this boss managed to lose his entire digital marketing department, and had no way to dig himself out. Sometimes bosses forget that their employees are human beings, who actually have the capacity to ruin their day, like this boss who tried to play an employee, or this boss who tried to play Alpha.

Work isn't exactly fun, but having to spend all day with an irresponsible boss can turn your job into a living nightmare. Sometimes a new boss will try to change things in a stupid way and it's oh so satisfying when they get nailed by their own policy. To push things further, sometimes you meet people who just straight up do not give a heck.
When this guy looked into the legality of this company's policy, he stuck to his principles and got everyone money they were owed. For some other satisfying work revenge stories, here's a boss's "take prank callers seriously" policy backfiring as well as a boss that got locked out of his own home.
Can't argue with the receipts. Sounds like these supervisors were all kinds of toxic and nasty. So, the employee pivoted, and managed to turn the tables on them. Can't imagine what their faces must've looked like, when they were embarrassed in front of those clients.
These employees were fed up with their controlling, toxic boss and his load of nonsense. So, in due time they waited to enact their ingenious revenge. That revenge looked like their boss unknowingly driving out to Omaha to make some money off selling shirts, without actually having the shirts. Just imagining the look on the guy's face when he turned up in Omaha, and realized he had nothing, is enough to fill one's heart with deep satisfaction. Way to go, dudes.
If you've worked for a place that cut every corner possible, so most businesses, you've probably ended up complying with some hell boss's stupid policy or ended up doing some irresponsible or unsafe junk that goes against your actual work guidelines. This person decided to actually follow the rules, and became hated by their crappy boss. Here's one about a boss that tried to get all Alpha and it didn't work out.
There's always that one person at work who you're amazed hasn't been fired yet. Maybe they just haven't been caught by a manager yet, or maybe your boss just doesn't want to go through the process of hiring someone else. People have to deal with some horrible coworkers, but it's definitely interesting witnessing people who do not give a heck.
Most of us have wished we could be someone who doesn't give a heck and publicly confront a horrible boss. This person worked for an unfair manager in what must have been a murderous slog, but they got their mic drop moment in the end. For another bad boss story, here's on about a new boss who tried to play alpha.
Usually embarrassing unmuted moments like this come from when someone is badmouthing the CEO, but this person was just being weird while eating food. Hopefully things end up okay. Sometimes we get ourselves into some embarrassing ad stupid situations, like this guy who thought a date was a job interview.
Pizza delivery is one of the industries that has seen a few changes since the pandemic started, but the customers are the same people as always, so what can you do. The manager at this pizza place decided to respond to a rise in prank calls in probably the wrong way. For more pizza stuff, here are the many strange customers one pizza deliverer met.
This boss came in hot on the scene, and thought they'd try to go full bully alpha mode. Well, that didn't shape up too well for them. Nope, not at all. The independent IT consultant who was around at the time, and a witness to their toxic antics, decided to report them. Shortly thereafter, it sounds like bully boss was swiftly escorted out of his position.
Modern life has a lot of institutionalized authority and expectations. We're so caught up with our own lives, work and relationships that sometimes we forget that we can just choose to not comply with society's expectations. It's almost always a bad idea to tell off your boss or get revenge on a lying customer, but there are some people who do not give a rip.
This guy's manager stole his game-changing new business strategy, and apparently thought he would get away with it as easily as he initially took credit for the idea. This employee made sure that didn't last long. For some more workplace justice, here's a cinema manager who blocked a guys promotion and stock room revenge ensued.
You don't need to know much about computers to understand that being asked to print a video file is a stupid endeavor, but this manager wasn't having it. Apparently this was the last thing on top of a pile of other complaints that led to her professional demise. Sometimes managers really don't know whats up, leading to stories like this employee who robbed a museum to prove a point. Here's one about an Aunt Karen who offered exposure for art payment and her scam fell apart.
The boss in this scenario was ungrateful, and ultimately blinded by greed to such an extent that he never saw his own downfall coming. Seriously. The boss never expected any sort of blowback from screwing over an employee who had by the sounds of it, given the job her everything. Or maybe, they did, and just turned that willing blind eye to the BS that they'd brought on someone else. That's possible. Either way, boss got what was coming to them in the end. It sounds like his old employee is well on her way to running a promising business with most of his clients.
