He Was Furious When His Boss Lied About His Pay. But He Did THIS When His Boss Asked Him For A Favor.

He was dumbfounded when he received his first pay check and realized that his boss had lied to him. But when his boss asked him for a favor, he got the ultimate revenge.

I used to work as medic in the Canadian oil patch. I spent 20 days away from home at this remote work site where they were fracking gas wells. By the 20th day, I couldn't wait to get home. I was excited to get my first real pay check in nearly a year and I was planning on paying off some bills and then getting blackout drunk. This is where shit went sideways on me - I tore open the mailbox like a child on Christmas morning. Grabbing my check, I headed down to the bank. Opening the letter I froze. Wtf? I'm missing over $1,000 - a cursory glance at my attached pay stub revealed I was getting paid $75 per day less than I expected. "Okay", I think to myself, "must be a mistake, I'm sure they'll rectify it for me." The next day I went down to the office and met with my Ass-hat manager and a few other office people. We sat down and talked it over and I asked if it was a mistake and when could I be expecting the rest of my pay. AM looked at me squarely and said, "You won't be getting that extra money, I HAVE discussed it with the rest of management and WE have agreed no one told you that you would be getting $400 / day. We only pay $325 to start." "Well I'm not saying you all told me I would start at 400$. You told me I would get $400 the day you hired me." He always had this creepy little smirk on his face and I began to understand the underlying reason. [nextpage title="Continue reading on the next page!"] Smirking at me he began, "Why would I start you at the top wage? We'd have nowhere to go, you wouldn't ever be able to get a raise and that wouldn't be fair, now would it? " I replied, "That doesn't bother me. Besides, YOU told me I would get $400." With that smirk still plastered across his face he said, " I don't remember that. Did you get it in writing?" At this point I knew he had one over me and while I was internally livid, I tried not to betray any emotion. "No, I guess I didn't." "Well there you go. So let's get this settled while you're here. You'll get $325 as a day rate and we're all in agreement. Is that okay? Can you live on that?" I agreed without too much fanfare and left wordlessly, cursing him and his progeny down the generations. Three days into my scheduled 10 days off, I get a call from my manager. [nextpage title="Continue reading on the next page!"] "Hi AstaKask, can you work tomorrow? I've got a job that's really important and our medic is sick. They're doing a large gas frac in the morning." "Sure", I said. "Great, you'll have to come by tonight and grab a truck, I won't be there so I'll give you the gate code to the yard and leave the keys in the gas cap. You need to drive out to site tonight and be there for the 6am start." "You bet, boss" I said, barely keeping my voice even.

Fast forward to 7am the next day. The phone call I was expecting from my manager arrives. "WHERE THE F*CK ARE YOU!??" "What do you mean?" "You NEEDED to be at the job site for 6am! I just got a call from the oil company! WHERE the f*ck are you!!?" "I'm at home." "WHAT!? You were going on this job, we talked last night!!" "Hmmm, I don't remember this.... did you get it in writing?" I promptly hung up and then turned my phone off. Now they couldn't start that job and it was my company's fault. If you know anything about fracking, it's hella expensive and they ended up having to pay for all the labor costs during the delay. I got threats of legal action and such so I know it cost them THOUSANDS. I hope it was worth it. I don't burn my bridges, I take off and nuke them from orbit... it's the only way to make sure. It's been almost 8 years, that company eventually folded and nothing ever came of their saber-rattling . I still get a good chuckle when I imagine that a**hole going red in the face.
