I have an issue that seriously needs addressing. I am currently
employed by a wine shipping company, however I am leaving at the end of
the week for another job. I started this job on November 1st. On
February 1st I begin my new job. I hope this says something.
I
was hired as "Salary Exempt", so that I would not get paid overtime;
however I was expected to, and was even ordered to work more than the
usual 40 hour workweek ( I was working an average of 60 hour weeks).
There is no time clock, so I have no "proof" of my hours. We are not
given comp time off for extra hours worked either.
I have a
very strong work ethic, and I work quite hard for this company. After
three weeks, I was approached about a different position that would be
a fantastic opportunity for me. I was quite excited about it.
The
supervisor of my department has a few nasty habits, including
delegating out all of her work to other people, then taking credit for
their hard work; and being a general loudmouth telling everyone in the
company everyone else's personal business - as well as professional
business matters that are HR issues. It was this woman's loudmouth
jabbering to another employee that I overheard, as well as everyone
else in my department, that the fantastic opportunity I had been
approached with had been taken off the table, but with no reason as to
why.
From this company's grapevine (the only way that the HR
manager communicates with the employees here), I found out that I had
offended the HR manager (this was news to me, we had only spoken 3
times, and I had always been very respectful to this woman). Her way of
"getting me back" was to make sure that I would never advance in this
company.
To this day, I do not know what I said, or did, to
offend this woman. To this day she will not acknowledge my existence
(this is a small company, by the way). But wait, it gets better.
The
supervisor of my department has another habit of blowing situations out
of proportion, and making more work for everyone, including our
clients. On December 15, this woman got an email from a client that was
taken out of context, then hung me out to dry with that client. The
upshot was that I no longer have permission to communicate with our
clients by email or phone calls (I process their orders)- all
communications have to go through the Supervisor or one other CSR.
Like
I mentioned, I start my new job- which happens to be a better position
for me, in a few days. However, my success is not enough "punishment
for the crimes" I have endured. I have friends that still work for this
company, and they need the jobs. The usual "legal" channels may
actually close down this company- so are not the option I am looking
for. I want something that will be more than pesky and mere annoyances.
Can you help me, Revenge Guy?
-Disgruntled Employee
Hi Disgruntled Employee,
I
can see how you were taken advantage of. It's an awful thing when, in
this day and age, employers still have the power over their employees
this way. Illegal working hours, poor conditions and hateful
supervisors should not have to be tolerated. In fact, it is all illegal.
How
to exact revenge on the company and those supervisors without
endangering the employees that you leave behind, the people you are
happy to have worked with and now call friends?
This is how:
Click your way to your state employment agency's website.
Copy
and paste their logo into a word/text document that goes something like
this (you'll want to make the document as professional and official as
possible):
Dear owners of XXX Company,
This letter is to inform you of a scheduled official visit by the Department of Employment Standards on XXX date, XXX time.
We
have received certain information from (put the hated HR's name here)
and have opened an investigation of Employment Standards Violations.
During our visit please ensure you have the following documents available for inspection:
Employee time cards for the past 5 years to present;
Employee work records for the past 5 years to present, including current and former employees;
Etc, etc.
You see how the letter is going.
Be sure to print out an official looking envelope as well.
Edit my wording as necessary.
This should get exactly the reaction you are looking for, and who knows, maybe working conditions will improve as well!
Best wishes,
RG

You need to check with your state employment office before doing something so rash. Many actually do not consider unpaid OT illegal, especially right to work states. I would just mail her a bag of dog shit.

Keep them coming. I'm posting a link to this page somewhere. So much the story of my life.
My story, begin passed over for a promotion for an ineffectual brown noser who has innappropriate relations at work, as does the future boss, who wants him.
Boss's bosses want me, as I'm the only one qualified for this position, but as boss has already made his choice known and his bosses will not sign off on his choice, I'm stuck in limbo. I've been waiting for weeks. So now it is time for action and thank you all for these great ideas.

John says on 2011-03-08 23:25:23 about ex-boss
I worked for a credit union and my boss was a tyrant, and supposedly a christian, but she'll burn in hell one day. Anyway, I got tired of her crap and turned in my 2 weeks notice and left. At my exit interview with HR, I wrote a 7 page memo about exactly why I was leaving and I named names, copies of e-mails, examples to prove everything, etc. Well, it turned out that I was unable to find employment after that for about 4 years, so I had a reliable reference checking company call my old boss for a reference check and sure enough, she bad mouthed me, and that is why I was probably passed over for some jobs that I know would have been mine if it wasn't for her. I had a meeting with the HR manager and president of the company and presented my case including the investigation report from the reference company and I cleared myself. I know they reamed her butt out, because I had the reference checking company call my ex-boss again after about 3-4 months and she would not answer any questions, and according to the report, she couldn't transfer the call to HR quick enough, because she was so scared. Anyway, my motto is to stand up for yourself, keep copies of documents to prove your point, and when you leave the company, don't be a wimp and say that you're moving on to pursue other interest (that's a copout), so speak your mind and you'll feel better. My other point is that if you want to get revenge on the company/boss, etc, make sure all your facts are true and there is no secure information on the documents. Then purchase a website with a domain name you want, and put a copy of all the documents on the internet for the entire world to see. If you have pictures, movies, etc, put them on the internet also. Then place an ad in the Sunday paper and have it in red ink and simply have in the ad, the name of your website. After that, sit back and laugh, because people will see the ad, go to the website and read all about what you posted on the internet and the company/boss will have egg on their face and there will be nothing they can do about it, because everything on the internet will be true. I had everything planned out, and if my ex-boss had not conformed to company policy by letting HR give out a reference like they should have the first time, then I had everything ready to put on the internet.
Mike says on 2010-12-24 21:14:02 about
I love the idea about throwing a hand-grenade, meataphorically speaking, into the company by sending a notice of investigation letter with the state's employment commission on it, but that's fraud, pure and simple and state's tend to get really bent out of shape when someone fraudulently represents themselves or forge state documents. Still, I think it's a grand idea and if I had an official state envelope, I might be tempted to do it myself...
So Over It says on 2010-08-27 23:02:21 about Owner of the Company
My supervisor's supervisor is the owner of the company. He is an complete and utter asshole. I am an attractive young woman new to the corporate world, but I am a hard worker that does not use her looks to fall back on. The owner of the company is a very large unattractive man who does not know how to communicate well with people, especially not with women. All of the 100+ employees dislike him but being that he is the owner, there is no one over him to turn to. I've noticed an oddly high number of VERY attractive women working for the company. The rumors say that has enjoyed hooking up with several of the women that work for him. I've felt that he has tried to figure out my stance on the subject(which is a HELL NO! in case you're wondering). Now I feel that he is trying to find a reason to get rid of me. Again, I am a good employee and my direct supervisor thinks I am great. I do not have any write ups or verbal supervisions on my record. But he constantly tries to find things to say that i have done wrong. He has even accoused me of stealing employee personnel records (which were in his office the entire time). The only saving grace is that my supervisor can play interference between us as well as his wife works for the company. It is said that his wife has found out about his cheating ways before but has forgiven him. I want revenge but not at the cost of losing my job by shutting down the business. I think getting him caught in another scandal is the way to go but I don't know how to go about it without getting myself caught up in the mix. If anyone has any suggestions, PLEASE advise me! I am so over all of his B.S! I wanna take him down now!
justme says on 2009-12-15 09:18:59 about revenge @ work
A feller at my old job got me fired for some b.s that wasn't my fault. So when he got a new job I went in on his day off and asked to see my lover (we are both dudes) when they told me he was gone for the day I asked if I could leave a message they said I could so I left a very explicit message talking, in great detail, about all the great sex we had the night before at the local gay park. Then I asked for an application and filled it out there (used a fake name) just so I could see them reading the note. To make matters worse for him I called his wife when he was at work and told her about our gay relationship we had been having for the last 5 years and how he told me he would leave her for me. I also made a fone call to his father inlaws house aswell just to make sure that his wife would have a bit more of a push to divorce him, and to my suprise it worked he is now divorced and I can only guess paying huge amounts of alimony and child support. Reading his name in the divorce section of the local paper was the most fulfilling thing I have ever seen.

eif says on 2009-12-13 01:12:55 about to NOT HAPPY
My first thought would be to NOT to go. But if the manager is an arse and maybe even the company boss then this could result in problems for you. Which then again you probably dont want....and well, one way or another, he's being an arse...but you already knew that.
Not_Happy says on 2009-11-12 22:26:31 about Office Christmas Dinner
My new manager sent an e-mail to the 5 of us who did not accept his first invite to the office Christmas dinner. He sent it marked with "High Importance". In 19 years since college, I have never seen such an aggressive display of "cover my ass" and "do this or else" in a manager's e-mail. This manager has never sent anything to me marked urgent, even if it was a critical customer issue.
Can someone please explain to me the logic of having a mandatory office Christmas dinner? Why do I have to change my personal plans to pretend to be happy with his lame event?
Since this is about revenge, what's the best way to get justice in return?

If you live in an area where poison oak or poison ivy can be found, make sure you rub the leaves on the targets keyboard, mouse, pens, etc. it is almost impossible to remove, and it takes weeks to fully recover. Be very careful with it. The oils transmit very easily. (Don't shake hands with your target)

I need some good revenge ideas that wont get me in trouble with the law. I got screwed on the last idea i did. i got a bunch (over 50) magazine cards and sent them to each of them so they would be getting subscriptions to magazines....well a couple of the co-workers i did get along with we were all at dinner and i wanted one of the co-workers to listen to my old voice message at work (becasuse i no longer work there) and she FORGOT TO PUSH END SO IT RECORDED OUR CONVERSATION!!!! Yea so I we were all talking during this minute conversation how i was sending magazine subscriptions to them and blah blah blah..... so yea a few days later a cop showed up at my new job (embarrassing) and asked me if i did that and i said no..he said well it sounded like you....tell me...is this against the law to do that and if so do you think they would have a case against me even though no names were mentioned in this "voice message"....please advise and help get me new ideas!!!! Thanks
forolio says on 2008-09-06 10:36:30 about abusive bosses
I have an abusive boss and I enacted revenge as follows.
I made up a resume using his name adress and as many particulars as I could that were accurate. In the context of the resume I hid small subtle character flaws that would stand out in the event that someone was astute enough to read between the lines. I posted his resume on several high profile executive job sites and happened to send a link to members of the board and the executive staff.
I think he is in the process of squirming on this one.
