This former store manager decided to get back at the place he used to work at by intentionally hiring a replacement that was a thief. The fact that the thief was hired and then left unsupervised was really the icing on the cake in this revenge.

    Text - I was recently let go from my job as a store manager. The company I worked for was abusive to both me and my staff. Some examples (there are a lot more) would be: • The owners/upper management coming to the store and chasing the staff around while snapping their fingers and saying "You're not working hard enough!

I followed the link back to an ad that I didn't write and posted from a different account. This ad was for a store manager. A poor attempt at being sneaky. I

    Text - The owners are notoriously spiteful. But I know they are also lazy and don't do their due diligence. They think they are having me hire my own replacement without me knowing. So, I hired the thief as my "employee" while the owners, having already seen the thief's resume, sees them as a good fit for store manager. I vouched for the thief's references knowing they'd never call them themselves. 3 weeks later I was let go when I arrived at my store. The owners seemed confused by the big smile
