Company almost signs a deal with shady business, employee overhears them speaking in another language: 'They were attempting to deceive the company'

You never know when speaking a foreign language comes in handy. Sure, it's useful when you're traveling to another country or when you're trying to communicate with someone who doesn't speak your primary language. However, it can occasionally save you from unexpected problems.

Here, we have a Serbian employee in an English-speaking office who accompanied their boss to a meeting with a Serbian business. The employee overheard the businesspeople speaking in their language about how they were essentially trying to cheat the company with this deal. Luckily, nothing had been signed yet, and the employee understood everything that was said. They proceeded to inform their boss and plan their subsequent revenge. They shared their side of the story via this thread on Reddit's r/ProRevenge thumbnail.
