This clever mastermind took his revenge on a pen thief co-worker by hiding a pink ink cartridge in his black pen at work. The big kicker here is that the nature of his work was such that it was taboo for any of the employees to use anything other than a black pen for their work orders. You can imagine how things went when the pen thief went and used a pink pen on a work order. They were made to look like a proper idiot. 

This post office employee's co-worker selfishly and lazily lied his way out of multiple morning shifts, to such an extent that he ended up costing him hard-earned time off. So, post office employee decides to put in his two week notice, and he times his exit for right when lazy lying co-worker "Bill" had planned to take his honeymoon. 

Karma sucks, Bill. 

You've got to love those snarky co-workers that spice up the workplace with funny sticky notes. It's a nice hot take on decorating, and really keeps the otherwise soulless, air-conditioned hellhole looking a bit more lively. These office notes didn't fail to get a few laughs out of us. 

There are a lot of reasons to leave a job. Maybe you get a better offer at a different place for more money. Hell, maybe the job just sucks. These people just happened to leave because they were violent, dumb, selfish, creepy and just plain stupid. For more like this, here are some dumbstruck employees sharing stories of their dumbest coworkers.

This guy put his boss on blast over an insensitive and entirely inappropriate situation regarding "slut shaming" his coworker's LinkedIn photo. Can't imagine what this boss was thinking when they dropped that kind of BS into the workplace atmosphere, but this guy's rant does a solid job at deconstructing why it was so damn messed up.

I'd expect something like this from someone named Francis! 

When Twitter User, Adrian Harewood, showed up to work wearing mismatched shoes, and lived to tweet about it; the rest of Twitter stepped forward to offer up their own experiences not being able to show up with their sh*t fully put together. The resulting thread is brimming with panicked moments that we all might (unfortunately) be able to relate to, when we weren't having our best days. 

This guy went ahead and asked the internet if he was a jerk for calling his co-worker chunky, after she repeatedly called him slim. It sounds like a case for HR, but they were nowhere to be found. So the internet's here to pass the final verdict. 

This reads like a crime thriller novel. A+ live-tweet commentary here, sir. 

Quitting your job on the spot is one thing, but when you and all of your coworkers quit at the same time, that's usually a good indicator that an owner or manager somewhere totally screwed up. There's a whole lot of incompetence out there, and these people only tolerated it for a while before doing a mass exodus. For more stories about bad jobs, here are people who quit on the spot.

If you're going to go to the trouble of telling Reddit's roasting community that you're "unroastable" you'd better be ready to get absolutely toasted. Yes, that's pretty much what happened here. Guy's work friend says she's too good to be roasted, and the internet proceeds to absolutely light her up. 

If you ever get bored at work and your boss is cool with you kicking it with their dog, THIS is a solid idea for something to do. That being said, we wonder if his boss loved it, or fired him instantly. 

Not sure what kind of person literally demands to have a cake on their desk by Monday but you better believe HR is gonna look into it and laugh their ass out of the office. People get stupid when they substitute common decency for a few dollars like these cheap bastards who tried to manipulate people.

Sometimes a revenge is best served with years in the making. In this case, it sounds like crappy co-worker got it in the long run. If you're looking for another great revenge tale, we recommend checking out the time a man's wife cheated on him with his best friend and he went and revenged so hard that they self-destructed!

Pro Tip: DON'T let your boss know you're too good at your job. If they don't already know, they'll find a way to make your life more difficult with potential for no pay increase, OR they'll cut your hours down and you'll watch that money fade away. At least people got helpful in the comments section. Here's another pleasant story of a boss being despicably cheap, except in this case it's a revenge tale!
