'You told me to sort this out myself, this is me sorting this out': Construction boss forced to move one ton of sand after he refuses to update his phone number

After moving to a new country, this dude kept getting phone calls from random callers. These days, most of us get a few random calls a day, but our phone often lets us know they're robo calls. That way, we don't have to answer them and talk to a robot or someone trying to steal our life savings. 

However, this person had a more complex situation on their hands. They got a new phone number, but the previous person who'd had that number didn't bother to tell his clients about the number change. This was no issue for the previous guy. But it was driving the OP, u/fin008, up a wall. They were getting calls all the time, and had to constantly explain that they were not a construction company. Did the callers understand and accept this answer graciously? No, no they did not. Instead, they were super rude to the OP. One day, the OP decided to just let karma take care of the situation, resulting in calamity for the previous phone number owner. 

Up next, this hotel clerk shared a saga of a crabby guest and her cousin who decided they wanted the clerk to get fired.
