'You dug that hole yourself’: Contractor works on resident's property without permission, creating damage that costs $100,000

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. So if one messes things up, one is probably going to have to face the consequences, that is simply how the world works, although there aren't many people who actually live by those rules.

Many people in this Reddit story had to face the consequences of their actions, and not all of them did such a great job. First, there was the terrible neighbor who started the whole drama simply by being a terrible neighbor, but also because he ordered a contractor to to work on a property that wasn't his. Then, there was the contractor himself, who even though he knew he was working illegally on private property, still kept going. And lastly, there was the county, who refused to do anything about the illegal work and refused to listen to reason.

All these people got what they deserved, so scroll down to read the full story. After that, click here for a story of employees who refused to accept a bonus from their boss.
