Petty revenge a year later 👿

This is so sweet I still love it to this day. I, a 40 year old female, worked at a cemetery for a year. I enjoyed it as much as I could, funeral directors are great people. I got close with one funeral home and I usually shock some people when I give the directors hugs. ;)

This was a very urban cemetery right next to a highway on ramp so one morning I come into work and discover the office trailer I worked out of was broken into. Management just brushed it off completely. Strike one.

If you didn't meet your sales goals for 3 months you were automatically fired. Not surprisingly job turnover was quite high. I did the best I could. I got my friend a job there, we moved office, a tiny open office where I was so distracted I couldn't work. My friend turned into a bossy micromanager so that was strike 2.

I got on great with the ground crew, they told me that if they didn't get the raise they were promised they would quit. Remember this.

My boss was a vain woman, hypocritical and immature to the extreme. She threw a fit one day for all to see which really underscores the immaturity really well. It was quite embarrassing, my coworker quit after that.

What did it for me was my manager being a huge people pleaser. He reversed some charges I had made on a contract because the family didn't like it. Rules are rules and if the manager didn't back me up and enforce them I was wasting my time. I walked into the office and cleaned out my desk, resigning immediately. I wrote out a long list of crap that went on, lighting that bridge on fire and walking away laughing.

Now for the petty part. My ex friend quit, I had blocked her and moved on, the manager and boss got yelled at for cheating the company out of money. But the biggest petty revenge was the ground crew guys quitting outright. They had been stiffed twice on raises already so they said screw you I'm so done!

The real beauty is a nearby cemetery would fill in for our crew when they needed coverage. That crew quit too!

I'm still laughing about it a year later. They acted like jerks for too long and this time they finally caught it in the butt!
