Construction worker offers former micromanager a job, setting the record straight and teaching him a valuable lesson in humility despite of the claim that he will ‘never amount to anything’

There will be those who want you to fail and those who want you to succeed. However, regardless of who is around you, you should constantly strive to be the best version of yourself.

The story below tells the tale of a resentful construction worker. Despite all the challenges, the Original Poster (OP) started his own construction company. To put things in perspective, during his undergraduate years, OP looked for a part-time job that could help him balance his academics and become somewhat financially independent. Although his construction work provided him with a steady income, his boss was a terrible micromanager who often criticized his employees.

That being said, when the chance presented itself, OP devised a crafty scheme to exact revenge on the man who had made his life as miserable as possible. So, if you're curious to find out what transpired between OP and his horrible boss, be sure to check out the story below! Additionally, don't forget to read the story of the client who humiliates the micromanager in front of the team after the micromanager attempted to teach a 'lesson' in business etiquette to one of the team members!
