Not all people's tastes in music go together, which is exactly what this dude used to his advantage to get back at his coworkers.

Once upon a time, there was a shared radio in this industrial work setting, where everyone was able to have their turn as DJ. One guy, the Redditor who shared this post to the r/pettyrevenge subreddit, decided to make a communal playlist comprised of a little something from everyone's tastes. This seemed like a decent thing to do, as it gave everyone a fair amount of representation on the work radio. However, that temporary harmony did not last very long at all.

Despite OP's efforts to keep things fair, his coworkers did not return the favor and would consistently skip his music when it was his turn. So what happened when the communal radio broke? OP took the opportunity to buy his own personal radio, where only he could be the DJ. That meant hours and hours of country music radio for everyone else to listen to day in and day out.
