Here's a friendly reminder to always count how much money they pay you before walking away. This pizza delivery driver learned that the hard way when after parting ways with a customer at a gas station, he realized the customer was $7 under and it was definitely not an accident. 

Thankfully, he had this dude's number. Of course, the guy did not pick up his phone, which totally confirms that he shortchanged the delivery driver on purpose. The best part about this driver, though, was his relentless determination to show this customer that he was fully aware of what happened. He wound up calling this guy repeatedly and incessantly whenever he went out with his friends. It was more than just the seven bucks. It was the principle of it all. Additionally, it must have simply been amusing to let this guy know that while he might not ever have to actually pay up, he's definitely going to be haunted for the foreseeable future. 

Keep scrolling below for the full story and for the best reactions from folks in the comments section. When you're done, feel free to take a look at this compilation of food delivery memes.

    Some guy shorted me at work (pizza delivery) so I saved his number in my phone and will prank call him from time to time

    Once delivered pizza to this guy and we met at a gas station (he was outside of the delivery zone) when I got back to my car and counted the money, he was short $7.

    I called him and he told me that he misunderstood the price over the phone and he'd run to his house and return with the money and a nice tip. He said it would take 5 minutes.

    15 minutes goes by and I call him again, no answer. I go back to the shop and call him once from my phone and once from the shop phone, no answer. I left him a VM and told him he was $7 short and would need to call in with a credit card if he couldn't find his wallet.

    Since I was pretty p off that dude lied, I saved his number in my phone and usually when me and my buddies are drg I'll give him a call (he won't answer) and I'll leave him a message asking him if he's got the money yet.

    zapthycat1. Have your friends call him, too! Also, make sure he's listed in the system that he still owes that $7.

    N3wf0n3wh0d15. Have fun but be careful. In my younger days we used to prank call people but that was before caller ID and before knowing who is calling who. Have fun be petty but stay safe. Lol

    Junior-Gorg Can you imagine if somebody were to call all sorts of service companies (lawn services, pool, maintenance, roof, repair, concrete, pouring concrete, drywall, etc), and set up appointments for services? Man, that would cause that guy a lot of headaches.

    hardboard. While I understand you want revenge, I can't help but think you should have checked the cash he gave you, in front of him, before leaving.
