His boss fired him when he needed time off after an accident. The shoe was on the other side when the same chef delivered his order on Uber Eats. » TwistedSifter

It’s frustrating to read about people being treated unfairly by their employer, but nice to see people get back on their feet.

However, this story is not about the joy of a new job.

It’s about the satisfaction of seeing a bad boss get what he deserves.

About 10 to 15 years ago I worked at Subway.

After working there for a few months, I was in a car accident (other people’s fault) and my car was totaled.

I took public transport to work a few times, but since the store was quite far from my home and I had to take four different bus lines to get there, it was a hassle to get there, plus the store doesn’t close until late after finals Buses have left.

This is so unethical and toxic.

I asked my boss if I could have a week off just so I could sort out the problem with my car. Instead he fired me.

Honestly, the guy didn’t like me because I refused to upsell, so he looked for a reason to fire me and jumped on the first one he could.

It’s a shame he didn’t get something better, but at least his place is nice.

All good, it was a ***** job at a ****** place, in the end I found a better job (at another ****** place) and I was fine.

At the end of 2020, I had just moved into my new home, a large, beautiful, newly built house.

I’m already satisfied!

I relied heavily on Uber Eats for the first few weeks of unpacking all my stuff.

One of these meals was delivered by a driver who looked strangely familiar to my old boss and even had the same name.

It happens. These are hard times.

It turned out that the driver was my old boss. Uber Eats now delivers.

Guess, Subway’s loss of popularity caused him to change his career.

That’s it? It’s noble, but I admit I was hoping for drama.

When he arrives and I greet him at the gate, he has this recognition on his face, he has remembered me.

I pretended I didn’t remember him at all.

TRUE. I wouldn’t call it petty myself.

For me THAT was the sweetest revenge.

Yes, he fired me, but here I am in a nice apartment and he’s driving around delivering food to fat guys like me.

Insignificant? definitely, but I still enjoyed it.

Let’s see what people said in the comments.

It’s like melatonin for vengeful people? Maybe I should try it for my sleep problems.

I doubt it. Now I am hungry.

I think the algorithm works this way, but won’t it hurt your account if you get caught making fake claims? And why should the person’s employer be penalized?

But then he would admit that he did recognize him, which would destroy this victory.

There’s no shame in working for fast food, but the job security is better.

And then you can order from Uber Eats more often.
