    LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - i have this coworker. We're going to call this coworker Jim. Jim is an ass. Jim likes to hide and dodge work.
  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - Jim likes to spread fake stories about people in our workplace. Jim likes to make inappropriate jokes and comments and is somehow able to get away with it despite multiple complaints to management (including 2 from me personally).
  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - Jim also likes to stand uncomfortably close to people and just hover, or lean in when standing near someone sitting.
  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - We work on a large property and there are multiple golf carts roaming throughout the day.

  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - Jim likes to park extremely close to other peoples' carts and block them in. Jim has recently been focusing his complaints on me.
  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - try to stay clear of all the drama but he started complaining about small things or antagonizing me on purpose.
  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - I think it bothers Jim that he can't get a rise out of me. I've started a shadow campaign against Jim.
  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - I removed literally EVERYTHING from the cart he typically uses, paperwork, tools, etc. (it's all company property and it's not like he really uses any of it).
  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - The next day, I saw him looking in the storage compartments and in the bed of the cart bewildered.
  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - His cart is older and you can leave the ignition "ON" but still remove the key so that it's always on.
  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - This type of cart has a universal key, so I'll use mine to switch his ignition to "OFF" every time I see it parked all by its lonesome.
  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - I like to picture Jim sitting down and flooring it and then having to figure out why his cart didn't go zoom.
  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - Oh, one more thing. I completely quit acknowledging Jim. I don't look his way, I don't smile, I don't say hello, nothing.
  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - One day, he rolled up next to me looking ready for a chat. I watched him and waited until the very moment that his cart rolled back slightly as it came to a stop, and then I took off.
  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - Didn't say a word, just gone with Jim sitting in the middle of the road behind me.
  • LowKeyChcknBoy https://www.reddit.com/r/pettyrevenge/comments/1qf55tk/later_hater/ - If you can't tell, I don't like Jim.
  • lapsteelguitar Sounds petty to me.
  • OP LowKeyChcknBoy Definitely petty, but a morale boost for me.
  • velvetswing I'm taking notes ngl
  • OP LowKeyChcknBoy Yo I'm flattered! This is all on the fly, just whatever I think I can get away with that no one could reasonably be blamed for lol
  • Awesomesince 1973 Jim sounds like a miserable human being and I love the petty you are pettying!
  • OP LowKeyChcknBoy I've heard through the grapevine that he goes home shouting about how much he hates this place and he deserves better blah blah blah...so I would have to agree with your assessment.
  • Gryffindorphins Haha the next post in my feed is someone asking "does anyone else have a colleague that just doesn't acknowledge you?"
  • OP LowKeyChcknBoy Ahahahaha I'm dead > Jim is definitely, 1,000% not on Reddit. Not tech literate in the slightest.
  • sphinxyhiggins Some narcissists like to stir up shit and see people upset. My dad was one and had no friends.
  • OP LowKeyChcknBoy But fr, I'm sorry to hear that. I can't imagine that was easy to grow up with.
  • sphinxyhiggins I hate Jim.
  • OP LowKeyChcknBoy I think everyone I work with does too. The crazy thing is he seems to thrive in all the toxicity! I just don't understand.
  • sphinxyhiggins Thanks. It took me a looong time to recognize the pattern. He really loved making drama. I haven't spoken to him in five years and my life is so different. It is peaceful and my health is the best it has ever been in my life. I miss him but I am not sure what miss.
  • OP LowKeyChcknBoy Yeah I get that. I feel the same about some of my parents. Moreso neglect than drama (still narcissists though) but I think I miss what I wish I had with them, if that makes sense.
  • B_A_M_2019 Calm down Dwight might be more appropriate:)
  • OP LowKeyChcknBoy Or Roy
  • Harrymoto1970 If he uses the same cart everyday, lower the tire pressure in one tire one day and rotate through. Figuring out the cause will drive him a little bit crazy. If they're electric, loosen a ground on a battery, it will make do intermittent issues
  • OP LowKeyChcknBoy Diabolical. I'll start with the tires. The thought of slashing them or puncturing them came to mind at one point but I wasn't willing to damage anything lol letting the air out is a better idea!!
  • CompanyAdmirable7811 What did you say his name was...Jim?
  • OP LowKeyChcknBoy Lol tried for dramatic effect. Too much?
