Hotel worker fired for using multiple guests' credit card information: '[His] manager just exploded in anger'

Hotel worker fired for using multiple guests' credit card information: '[His] manager just exploded in anger'

This employee's extracurricular activities were not a good look for the hotel's reputation. What's particularly funny about this story of an unprofessional employee getting justly fired is that it wasn't a coworker or manager who figured out what he was doing. In fact, it was another front desk agent at a totally different hotel. This agent was contacted by the bad employee, who was trying to book a 20-day stay using someone else's credit card information. The agent started to sense that someth…

'Enjoy your ticket': Irresponsible driver yells at cautious driver for slowing down to let an ambulance pass, then gets a hefty speeding ticket as payback

People with road rage should not be allowed to be behind the wheel. There is no reason that a person who cannot control their anger should be in a position where they could endanger so many people's lives. Unfortunately, unless they are caught violating some kind of rule, they get to continue in their rageful ways. One thing we do get out of road rage is funny petty revenge stories. This story was shared by a guy on Reddit who had to deal with a very irresponsible driver. The poster (OP) was mi…

Teacher Gets Epic Payback on Group of Slackers During Senior Ditch Day

This epic mode of payback has people divided over whether or not this teacher is a brilliant mastermind or entirely out-of-line. Truth be told, it's a very tough call.

On the other, it's clear from this teacher's first-person account of the whole debacle that they got a lot of joy out of radically affecting the future of these kids, particularly when it came t…

'Karens keep stealing from my garden': Sneaky neighbors bring bags to 'grab and run' with their stolen veggies

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

This lady decided it was time for her soon-to-be ex to pay up!

‘I don’t appreciate the passive-aggression’: Hypocritical roommate spars with tenants over dirty dishes and petty sticky notes

Sure, passive-aggressive behavior is not the ideal way to handle an awkward roommate situation, but sometimes, it's the most effective way to make your point heard. If the person with whom you share space has unrealistic expectations of you, you are bound to upset them. Now, if they themselves cannot meet their own expectations if the roles were reversed, then it's about time to give that person a taste of their own medicine. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit by u/Oomp…

Entitled customer sends his steak back to the chef six times, chef enacts petty payback

There should be a cap on the number of times a customer is allowed to send food back to the kitchen. Once is fine and, honestly, should be enough. These people are professionals and if you constantly need to send food back, then you’re the problem or at the very least, there is a huge difference between what you’re asking for and what you want. Now, there is also plenty of wrongdoing happening on the other side of things in this thread, which was posted to Reddit’s r/pettyrevenge subreddit. We…

‘I stuffed trash through their mail slot’: Man sends neighboring students a message by stuffing their entrance with trash following neighborly dispute

Having noisy neighbors is bad enough, but it is even worse when those noisy neighbors are college students. The noise of college parties only, especially when you are trying to sleep, could probably get you to move out in a matter of days. Plus, trying to get those kids to stop is even harder to deal with, so you would have to suffer in silence until it is late enough to call the police. It doesn't just end in loud parties. In this Reddit story, a man who lives in a mostly student area shared a…
