My entitled boss keeps saying he's going to fire me for not doing my job, despite the fact that he gives me impossible jobs to do and impossible deadlines to meet.

0:08.2

And after dealing with his verbal beating for weeks after I just started this job, I decided that enough was enough.

0:13.9

As I pushed forward to not only complain to corporate, but also ruined this guy's life entirely in a way he has still never recovered from.

0:23.6

And I honestly feel so good about the revenge I got on this jerk. Here's what happened.

0:24.6

Okay, so a few years back, I got hired as a supervisor for a local government,

0:28.6

and I was to help supervise about 10 employees.

0:31.6

Above me was a manager, and he was a terrible leader,

myself. He was literally out to get me. He would

1:11.6

give me a task, then another one, and then asked me why I didn't get the first one done already.

1:15.7

I also found out that he rode the old supervisor that way until he got enough dirt on him

1:20.0

to terminate him. So it was at that moment I decided it was war. I kept a log of every perceived

1:25.4

policy violation, broken rule, inappropriate comment,

1:28.4

and people who witnessed it. I also engaged other supervisors and employees from other departments.
