    Text - r/pettyrevenge u/SumoNinja17 • 15h + JOIN Lie to get back my $75.00, watch me walk customers away from your business for years! Many moons ago, I did automotive locksmith work. It was usually for cars that were impounded, repoed or people lost their keys. l'd make my rounds once or twice a week to the storage lots and there would be a list waiting for me.

    Text - One bank lot had a maroon Ford Tempo. I picked the ignition, took the lock out and put a new lock in. Then I made keys for the doors and trunk. I finished up the rest of the lot and left. Back at the office we send the bank our bill and get on with our day. About 2 weeks later, a bank rep (Ed) calls and asks if I could "take care of the customer" for the locksmithing. Iasked why. He said the guy was claiming damages and refused to pay. Note- the bank gets to charge the owner all the costs

    Text - I asked Ed, what damages? Usually people get confused because we changed the ignition locks and their original keys don't work, but we gave them 2 new keys with the new lock. Their door and trunk keys still worked. Ed said, "the guy said you broke his rear window defroster".

    Text - I was laughing. I said "Ed, you know that making keys has nothing to do with his rear defroster, right?" His defogger was broke before the bank took the car and he was using it get out of paying for the keys. Ed agreed, but said his boss was tired of hearing the "asshole scream" (yes he said that). Itold Ed not to worry about the $75, they gave us lots of work, please keep sending it. Ed was happy, his boss was happy, I was not. T hate when people lie to get over on you, but what could I

    Text - Smile - Ed sent the guy to my office, and I gave him a check for $75.00. Talso told the smug knew he was lying, that there was no way making keys for his car damaged his rear defogger. His answer, "the bank doesn't know that". hated him, but what could I do? Now I

    Text - What could I do? Iforgot about it for about 6 months, then went to pick up take out at our usual Friday night place (call it A's). Then I saw it, three doors down, the lying lock guy was opening a new restaurant. He had big signs/billboards in the shopping center complete with his name and photos on the signs. Now I knew what I could do!

    Text - Font - I went to his restaurant about a week after it opened. My ex wanted to try it out. I was hoping to run into the but he stayed in the kitchen the whole time. Probably for the best, I more than likely would have done something he'd regret. Well, the food wasn't bad, but it was nowhere near as good as the other place in the shopping center, A's, the one we got Friday night take out from. So I made it a point to tell everyone heading into his restaurant that A's was better. Every Frida

    Text - But it wasn't just Friday nights I did this. There was an Office Macks in the same center. When I would go there, l'd walk over near liar's and tell as many people near there as I could. Then my kids started taking karate in the same center. Yep, I did my anti word of mouth advertising. I think liar's restaurant lasted 2, maybe 3 years. I made it a point to talk them down, every chance I could. I know they lost way more than $75.00. I was petty, and I got my revenge.
