An employee who was transferred to a new job position immediately starts to get treated poorly by the entitled office "Karen." She ignores it and eventually, the Karen coworker moves on. However, once they started getting new hires, the office Karen expressed how she was going to "steal" clients from them. This boiled the employee who was disrespected by her so many times when she first started. So as payback, she went to every single new hire and offered to help them out in order for them to get 100% of their commission. She states that she would rather work hard for no extra pay just to see justice served. And, oh boy, was justice served! The face on the office Karen once she realized what her old frenemy was doing was apparently "priceless." 

 

"The past week I've felt absolutely euphoric, practically skipping around the office," the proud vigilante employee writes. "I'm like a Disney princess fueled entirely by spite."

  • "Sweet, sweet revenge"

    My bu y started a few months before me and in passing she came off as super funny and outgoing.

  • I never expect friendships from coworkers. Sometimes it happens naturally, but I never push it and keep stuff professional.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • I can get along with anyone because I have a very inoffensive and adaptive personality (aka I'm a people pleaser).
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • For whatever reason, she chose me to be her "victim". I say that in quotations because for my first few months here I didn't realize she was even bu ying me.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • I just thought her and her single minion were weird as f . They wouldn't include me in conversations, but I didn't try to involve myself because I found them annoying.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • I'd say something completely normal and they would burst out laughing and run to the back. Clearly they were trying to isolate me, but I get along with everyone else.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • If anyone is isolating anyone, they're doing it to themselves. This girl has a serious superiority complex and majored in leadership which makes me giggle.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • Given her only goal in life is to be a boss one day, she gets off on people going to her for help.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • Being new to this job, I had a ton of questions. However, I'd go out of my way to ask anyone but her for stuff because of how off- putting she was.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • If she saw me struggling with something, she would ask if I needed her. To which I would say, "no thank you", and then immediately go to someone else.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • This ped her off SO much that she complained to our director in her quarterly review that I'm rode and a know-it-all.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • It gives me secondhand embarrassment considering in my own meeting I talked about how wonderful everyone has been and how much I enjoy the work.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • Evidently, my director didn't care because it was never brought up and my review was overwhelmingly positive.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • I only know about it because this moron bragged she was trying to get me fired. Lmao.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • I won't go into much detail, but there was an incident where she said she was going to ruin my life.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • Basically, our manager helped me put some stuff together for a sale and he specifically said to keep the commission for myself.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • My coworker did provide some help, but it was minimal and also unnecessary (leadership majors amirite).
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • Once she saw the amount, she tried guilting me to split it and I said no. This was my 1st big sale and the fact I didn't bow down had her fuming.

  • She went on a whole campaign about how new people shouldn't make commission. For context, usually there is a waiting period for new hires to make sales, but I'm a transfer so that doesn't apply to me.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • Anyways, fast forward to present day. It's been almost 6 months and everything is going great.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • I fit in well despite our feud. My presence alone upsets her and that brings me so much joy.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • Now that they hired some new people, she tries to talk to me and I'm rightfully dismissive and uninterested.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • I don't know what gave her the impression I want to interact with her after how terribly she treated me.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • Quite stupidly, she told me she was looking forward to stealing sales from the new hires as they can't make commission right away.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • This made my blod boil given our history. So what did I do? I went to every single new hire and offered them a deal.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • If they are approached for a sale and come to me, I will help them the entire way and give them 100% of the commission.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • I refuse to let her take advantage of our new hires and buy them like she did to me.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • I don't king care if I have to bust my a for no extra money. The look on that itch's face after she realized what I was doing was priceless.
    via Defiant-Mud-945
  • The past week I've felt absolutely euphoric, practically skipping around the office. I'm like a Disney princess fueled entirely by spite.
