So petty, so good
Your Change
I used to work at a pizzeria. There was this one customer that everyone hated. She was rude as hell, complained about everything (every single order she ever received,, she found something to complain about). And she wasn’t a normal customer, no, she would order essentially groceries from us by ordering disassembled sandwiches, for example she’d order a chicken sandwich but with all of the ingredients separate and in particular amounts, with cutlery, butter, a side of grated cheese, 3 plates, oil and vinegar on the side, “medium rare” toasted bread (whatever the fuck that means), extra packets of ranch, you get the idea. But because it was all technically part of a “sandwich” she didn’t expect to be charged for any of the extras and would complain.
She also refused to answer the door when delivery drivers got there and instead would leave the money in an envelope (exact change, no tip) under the doormat and wanted the driver to leave the food on her doorstep. She also had weird specifications about where the driver could park (never in her driveway, only on the street, even when it was raining or she’d complain).
Also, she didn’t want them to announce their arrival in any way (no knocking, no ringing the bell, no beeping their car horns, they needed to be silent or she’d complain). Fucking nightmare, this woman. And every time she complained, she’d try to weasel some free shit out of us for next time. (Because of-fucking-course she would!
Anyway, one day she says she needs the driver to make change and she wants him to just leave the change in the envelope and not take a tip because “he gets paid already”. So I tell my driver this and he says “ohhh I get paid, do I? No problem, I’ll take care of it.” He goes on the delivery and comes back pleased as punch, doesn’t say a word about how he “took care of it”. I get distracted, keep working, 10 minutes later I get a phone call. It’s the crazy lady and she’s FURIOUS because apparently my driver left her the correct change of $5.85, in the envelope like she asked…..IN PENNIES.
Fucking genius. I had to put her on hold so I could laugh. I get back on the phone with her and I said “ma’am, I think you’ll find that pennies are legal tender. There’s nothing I can do.” After explaining that I am, indeed, the manager and the highest authority present, she got fed up and hung up on me. That driver is still a f*cking king to me.

Maniacal
My roommate and her SO loved doing elaborate jigsaw puzzles. After I found out she cancelled our lease, leaving me 1 week to find a new place to live, I threw away 1 piece of two different puzzles they were working on. Before you ask, she was able to do this because I was 17, and not able to legally sign a lease (stanciat)
For Sale
Late and not as sophisticated as most, but I started in a new job 2 years ago and hated a guy that kept joking about me, so I got his phone number and announced his PS4 for sale for like 50$.
Same day during lunch he was already nuts because of the calls.
OFC he found a way to remove it, but it was nice to watch (def_not_myself)
