An entitled jerk demands that I pay for my community college class the next day simply because they were too lazy to process it right this second.

So I decided to get some petty revenge by paying for my class in hundreds of dollars worth of nickels.

And I've honestly never felt better about getting back at somebody in my life.

Here's what happened.

Okay, I want to start off by saying that yes, this was 100% petty, and honestly,

I have a pretty good reason for it. I went to a community college for a while, and as part of my

degree planned pathway to transfer to the university, I needed a specific class, but the community

college that I went to didn't offer it, whereas another community college in the same district did.

The problem was my scholarship didn't cover it up front, so I had to pay the tuition for the one class and get reimbursed later. So, I went to go enroll in the class because it was such an obscure class, and I had to go deal with it in person. Well, they made you go through several steps, meaning that you had to see an advisor, then they would tell you whether you were doing the right thing for your degree plan, and this advisor was a moron. I actually wondered if she could even feed herself with a spoon without putting her eye out. After she was finally able to locate the course, which by the way took some difficulty, since she kept looking it up in the wrong area, her response when she pulled it up on the computer, was to say, why do you want to take that class? That looks really hard. Even though I had already explained twice

what I was doing and why. After some completely unnecessary haggling, she finally signed off on

me being able to enroll. So after that, I just needed to visit the cashier and pay. But the cashier

was every bit as stupid as the advisor, possibly even more so.

When I explained that I was paying for a single course, she tried to tell me that I needed to be

enrolled full time and that she couldn't do anything about it. I literally had to go get an actual

note from the advisor that gave me an override, even though it wasn't necessary to let me give them

actual money. When I got back to the cashier, she looked at the paperwork and seemed very upset. Apparently, I was making her have to do things like, you know, her job. She said that I should change my major because having to do the extra work on her end was too hard, and she didn't feel like doing it. And it's like, oh, okay, thank you for your unsolicited opinion.

She then told me they couldn't accept payments that day for some made-up reason, and that I had to come back the next day. So after that, I decided I was going to annoy her. So in the morning, I went to the bank and I got the entire tuition in Nichols. And this was roughly like $300. Then I proudly walked into the cashier's office with a box full

of nickels that I had gotten about halfway through unwrapping. The cashier was there and said that now

she could take my money. So I picked up the box of nickels and I said it was all there. Well, the look on

her face was priceless. If you could capture equal parts anger, disgust, irritation, as well as sadness and despair, wash over her in about two seconds, all after her smug look when I first walked up, it would have been a work of art. I had to wait around while she counted the nickels, and it was honestly completely worth it. Once she finished, I got my receipt, and I left her wondering what she was going to do with all of those nickels. And like I said, it was incredibly petty, but in my opinion, it was completely worth it. Okay, honestly, I can kind of see why the original poster would do this, because seriously, that is so annoying. These people repeatedly told you, um, this is taking too much work. You can't do this today. You should change your major. I don't like this. Or just literally not wanting to do your job at all.

Like, my God, I'm so sorry that you have to do your job today, but I really want to get this done. And the fact that you're making this difficult is making me go insane. So seriously, in my opinion, I'm so glad that you paid a nickels because this is something I've dreamed of doing for a company that I don't like. And I just love the fact that I saw this in action because this truly was incredibly satisfying.
