Some of these are funny and revenge is sweet, I'm just not very amused if someone is being stressed. When I'm upset or having a really bad day I can sometimes be rude, but when I calm down a little I'll apologize (if I'm still there, say like McDonalds, I'll go back to the cashier to apologize) for my behaviour. Everyone can have a bad day or be very stressed. I would feel really stupid if I did something mean to a customer in secret, only to have the customer apologize later.

Have you ever made a difference in someone's day? Helped someone feel better when treated with kindness, seen anger lessen, small smiles appear? Thing is, you can't tell in advance -- you must treat everyone like this. You are hurting the customer, the store owner, but in the end it hurts you the most.

My mom works at a Starbucks and she regularly gets a lady we've dubbed "Patricia". Patricia will order a frappuchino, drink the whole thing, and then come back into the store saying that the drink wasn't sweet enough. She comes about 3 times a week. Once, my mom was working the drink station and she purposefully pumped a crapload of syrup in there just to piss Patricia off. Patricia didn't come back for 2 weeks after that. Edit: I don't understand why I'm getting downvotes, because my mom works for almost minimum wage on a regular 9 to 5 basis. Also, Patricia will criticize and not even drink her drink anymore, my mother says it's a control thing, and Patricia is just being a big nuisance.

I had these two annoying regulars while working at a poolside cafe. They were loud, rude and never obeyed our rules ... like not putting drinks on the edge of the pool table, not smoking at the table (that was almost 30 years ago) etc. So I was always polite to them ... but no more. When they were back, other regular customers came, whom I greeted warmly, we made short small talk, exchanged compliments and I smiled warmly the whole time. When the "annoying guests" paid, they said I would never get a tip from them because I was never so nice to them. I just put on my "customer smile" and said: This is how I treat guests who I like because they are always nice ... as opposed to both of you!

Okay so BF posted a thread not long ago on how petty people can be and shaming them for wanting revenge on actual offensive acts. But it’s perfectly fine for people in service to break all the rules of civility and decency just because they didn’t like the tone a paying customer used? Granted, some of the cases the revenge might be called for but often, things can be resolved in a civilised manner without resorting to petty, childish behaviour exemplified in this post. Badly done, BF.

There's this one candle store I'd really like to work at, and it being a candle store, it tends to attract a LOT of karens. I'm going to get to know all the employees there, and when I leave/quit, I'm going to put up my number in the back room for the newer/younger employees to call me if a karen comes in there and starts screaming at them if they can't do something. I don't care WHERE I am, WHAT I'm doing, I will drop it if someone calls me and asks for help with a karen. I could pose as a customer or a manager "on break", and depending on the situation, either be really extremely calm with them if it seems they've had a bad day and give them (really quickly expiring) $5 coupons (bc it's an expensive candle store and $5 don't do anything lmao), or I'll just yell at them and/or take the blow for the employees. No one working ANYWHERE deserves to be yelled at by a karen. I'm pretty good at calming karens down, since 3 of my parents ARE karens and I have experience with it.

Parents had quite a big house, when people phoned and were rude I would never know if someone was in. I would have to go and see if I could find them, even if they were standing right next to me. I worked as the lowest ranking office wallah in the civil service, but had to order the stationery, including loo roll. One of our offices was closer to naval stores than to us, so they often got stuff from there...until they discovered that I ordered soft, absorbent loo roll. If they offended me, I made them use the Izal Medicated navy issue stuff. Power.

Please do not Fck with peoples food. The main point of these "revenge" actions is to make the cust svc rep feel better. I worked customer service for way too many years and met more than my share of "karens". Extra sweetness can work well, but for me the best revenge happened after they were gone... the nasty things I could have said or done and many times I got totally ridiculous. I got satisfaction and the release of the tension, and the customer could only complain about my niceness.

A guy pulled up to the drive thru five minutes before we closed, and started being an asshole before I even took his order, yelling about how much our service sucked and how slow we were. I let him wait the five minutes until the automated "I'm sorry, but we are now closed" came on.

Revenge, get even by being a superhuman: remain nice and polite even if they are dead wrong. It is incredibly rewarding to resist the temptation to lower yourself to their 'standard' . I said nothing about sarcasm, though. Sarc the hell outta them!

I work in customer service. Most people can be talked down or turned around or just shoved out the door as quickly as possible. Also, some people are just perceived as being rude because YOU are cranky and have had a rough day. So maybe save your energy for something that isn't going to get you or your company in trouble.

I think the worst one on this list was telling a mother she'd missed her baby's first steps. That's just downright evil. Did this person ever put into consideration how every day of her life the mother will be thinking about her baby's first steps. It's so cruel I can't even imagine it. The other ones are ok, but at the same time they can be pretty horrible to people. Honestly this passive aggressiveness is usually unnecessary.

People need to stop acting like this. Being petty is funny , but not when it's serious . If we all just go around with the attitude that if somebody does something wrong , then so will I . Turn the other cheek. Be the bigger person . We need to stop praising this kind of toxic behavior

Unfortunately, these nasty retaliations are often used in response to personal prejudices against other races, ethnicities or even perceived social class. Better to let karma take over and not lower yourself to behave badly.

Of course, we have the cash register personnel who do things like talk on their cell to their "honey" and ask you to re-insert the chip part of your credit card five times without realizing that you're *handing them a $20 bill* b/c they're that tuned out of their job...

What gives them the right to take their frustrations with others out on the service person? You have a problem with someone, TAKE IT UP WITH THEM, not with the Wendy's/Starbucks/McDonald's/Kroger/Etc. clerk.

All of these stories end with at least two people who will dislike other people just a little bit more. I understand the impulse and the sneaky fun, but this s**t isn't healthy and we shouldn't be proud of it.

Counterpoint. If someone has had a bad day, is in a bad mood, is generally grumpy or angry, they shouldn't feel like it's okay to take that out on service staff. The issue is people think service staff don't "count" and therefore they can be vile to them because of whatever else is going on. Not okay. It doesn't matter how much you love people, or love working with people, being the verbal punching bag for people gets old very quickly.

True. But it's also our duty as customers to be as decent as possible. It's not the service provider's responsibility to take every nasty attitude from the consumer. We don't go home and be mean to our loved ones, all because we had a terrible day, do we? The only reason people are mean to the customer service providers, is because of the belief that they are beneath them and the notion that the customer is always right. Even if the laws and etiquette of business excuses it, such attitude is still very wrong.

Some people just don't get it when you're overly nice, trying to make the point that they shouldn't be jerks. Sometimes you have to hit them twice with a 2 x 4 before they realize it's wood.
