Update: 'He cc'd his boss and my supervisors so they could all see my big mistake': Employee sends receipts to higher-ups after being accused of major mistake

When an account manager accused this worker of making a big mistake, the employee came back with receipts. U/LucyAriaRose knows the value of getting things in writing, as he shared in a post to the r/pettyrevenge subreddit.

While working in a client-facing job, there's a lot that goes on behind the scenes that the client never gets to hear about. For this medical equipment company worker, that meant that their work in the contracting department was "challenging." And, he added, if he didn't get a customer to sign that contract, the costs could quickly rack up to thousands of dollars each day. That's a big responsibility, and one that this employee had a handle on. But his bosses had other plans. Much like his clients, this guy also missed out on a bunch of behind-the-scenes conversations.

After getting some excellent petty revenge, he posted an update to the story. Commenters were dismayed at the outcome, which was just frankly unfair. Office politics can be so unfair. It might seem like there is no rhyme or reason for the decisions being made. It often comes down to people wanting to work with their friends, instead of wanting to work with people who are actually efficient at their jobs.

After you read this dude's workplace revenge story, check out the purchases people would never make again, like the person who regrets buying "$40 elf ears. I have worn them zero times."
