'[Boss] gave me the power to cancel his vacation plans': 10+ Dramatic instant karma stories

You don't have to believe in karma to appreciate the sentiment of it. What goes around comes around, and if you do good things, maybe good things will come back around to you. And if you're being kind of a grouch or a bad boss, well, that might come back to haunt you too.

These people shared their best stories of instant karma at u/barrygibb's request, and there's a wide variety of examples. However, one of the main themes was people who got back at their terrible bosses. It seems like a lot of bosses give their employees a ton of responsibility, and therefore, quite a lot of power over the day-to-day functions of that workspace. A lot of employees try really hard to impress their bosses and work as much as possible, only to be continually berated instead. So when they decide to head out the door, they don't have a single care in the world about what'll happen to the business. They just know they're ready to move on and put their hard work into a role that they're more appreciated in. Their bosses will just have to deal with what karma has wrought!

Next up, this retail worker shared what happened when they got even with a few of their worst customers, writing, "Feeling a spirit of pettiness overtake me, I fill the cart with M&Ms."
