It's encouraging to see people leave a bad job, like when this dude's awful boss asked him to consider his role so he got a better job. The kicker for this one is that, while the owners are trying to manipulate this guy into hiring his own replacement, the new guy with the sketchy job history was their choice anyway.

As far as petty revenge cases go, this one is something else. A woman in Manhattan Beach had her house painted pink with a couple emojis from an angry neighbor who was taking their revenge after being reported for a short-term rental. Short-term rentals are illegal out in Manhattan Beach. The LA Times reports that Kathryn Kidd had to pay $4,000 in fines after being reported for using her property as a short-term rental.
Honestly though, there's no denying that this petty revenge is just plain brilliant. What a genius way to tell your neighbor to mind their own business.
It sounds like these golfers were lost in the sauce, and acting up in all kinds of ways. In this case, we've got a nice golf course ranger who was just trying to maintain some peace on the course. Unfortunately, one particular golfer didn't take too kindly to him telling them to stop drinking and stirring up a ruckus on the course. He handled the situation with a little pro revenge, and ended up getting them busted by a sheriff who was nearby.
A recent AskReddit thread has people sharing the various revenges they took on their bullies. Some of them are of a physical lunchbox swinging nature, while others are nothing short of a masterful, strategic nuclear revenge-- yes, we're referencing the sick genius who got back at a nasty neighbor by planting mint, which has roots that run a long way.
This employee took it upon themselves to lead a "revolution" against a horrible, lying manager. The resulting story might inspire others out there that feel crushed under the weight of toxic bullshit. Wonder if this manager's name was "Karen." That'd be the icing on the cake.
This guy discovered his wife had cheated so he proceeded to employ some tactical maneuvering, got access to her phone, switched some numbers around, and additionally contaminate their "weed lube" with poison ivy; and then boom, cheating wife thinks she's picked up herpes from her secret lover. A true nuclear revenge in its finest form. The fact that she outs herself in front of a ton of faculty and students with an "ugly cry" is the icing on the cake.
This woman got back at a nasty old con man, who'd acquired his wealth through scamming others by outsmarting him. The nuclear revenge that ensues comes at quite the cost to the tricky bastard. To think that he was probably all kinds of jacked up, getting away with $25K when he ends up losing about half a million dollars.
This inspector of labor got pulled over by a cop who felt like being rude upon ticketing him. Unfortunately that was the cop's second biggest mistake, with his first being not wearing the proper "equipment" which he ended up getting ticketed for. And that final ticket cost was a $2,000 fine!
When this IT guy found out that his greedy new boss and his henchman sidekick had essentially tried to play him by claiming his hard work as their own; and only offering him a couple vacation days as payment, he took a well calculated revenge. He played his revenge perfectly too. He managed to get the boss' "yes man henchman" to sign off on a two week vacation and his notice for leaving, without even realizing it.
Customers can suck, and it's rare for anyone in service or retail tolive their dream of getting revenge. You wouldn't think people would get this upset over french fries, but this kind of crap happens every day. Also, that's incredibly bold on the part of this woman to go so far to make fries an impossibility. That's a real power move.
Sometimes we get bogged down with the idea of "completely destroying" the people who have wronged you with some impressively satisfying act of nuclear revenge, but like they say "living well is the best revenge." This guy's petty move at the end there is a nice touch too.
When this dad was robbed of his well deserved vacation time, he took one sweet and satisfying revenge upon his retirement. That's the way to do it. Go out in a blaze of glory, as your jerk boss mutters to himself uncontrollably, at a loss for what to do. Shouldn't have messed with dad's vacation time!
When this person subjected themselves to a nasty stench with hopes to "outstink" their problem neighbor who wouldn't stop feeding an army of pigeons, they earned a pro revenge. Temporary discomfort for an eventual win. Nicely done if we do say so ourselves.
