Sometimes an inappropriate action deserves the appropriate response; it's the simple laws of cause and effect acting out their parts. This is how it was when u/elena247's coworker decided to execute the clever ploy of bringing their dirty dishes into work to have others wash them. When u/elena247 discovered what their coworker was up to, they decided the appropriate response was to introduce the dirty dishes to the trash can. Sounds like a reasonable plan to us.
This topic was posted to the r/pettyrevenge subreddit, where it got 7.8k upvotes. Commenters overwhelmingly supported u/elena247's actions who explained the situation a little more in the post.
"I'm a server and we do have a dishwasher on certain days but oftentimes if it's slow the dishwasher won't come in and it's up to the servers to wash the dishes from service," u/elena247 explains. " As you can imagine, this can lead to us being torn from two places at once hence my repeated frustration at her bringing her dishes in the morning and dumping them for a server to do instead of her quickly putting them through the dishwasher herself."
The coworker sounds like a lazy good-for-nothing. Besides, as commenters have also addressed, wouldn't it take MORE effort to bring the dishes to work and back then to wash them yourself at home?
