As an employee, it sucks if your supervisor doesn't like you. Since they have the power to control whatever happens to you in the company, it can feel like you're walking on eggshells around them.

You can't help but constantly worry that you might make a mistake or say something wrong, and it could have consequences for your job. It's such a relief when you have a supervisor who's not only professional but also approachable and supportive.

Unfortunately, people can't choose their bosses. But in the world of adulting, your work shouldn't just be about them liking you personally but also about recognizing your value as a contributor to the organization.

And if all else fails, sometimes just finding ways to make your work environment as pleasant as possible can help you cope with a less-than-ideal supervisor. Since we spend a great deal of time at work, it's better to do our best to make the atmosphere positive for everyone.

But then, if you feel like being singled out by your supervisor, no one's going to stop you from dealing with the situation with pettiness, just like what this Redditor did.

The original poster (OP) is an employee whose supervisor nitpicks on him. He noticed that his coworkers haven't been receiving write-ups despite their tardiness, while he already got one.

So he decided to take revenge by reporting his boss for stealing tip money.

The employee decided to share their experience with the r/pettyrevenge community over at Reddit.

After getting a write-up for tardiness, the OP decided to report his boss for theft.

She stole tip money.

Redditors point out the realities of corporate life.

It's the employees who get the short end of the stick, while evil managers get promoted and climb up the corporate ladder.

The OP won't stay in this job, anyway. So if he wants to go petty, he might as well go all in.

So it's better to document everything he witnessed and let everyone know by email.

User points out that what the manager did is against the law.

Time for the OP to look for a job since the supervisor might also retaliate.

This person's stealing from the wrong people.

The OP can document the bullying as well, not just the theft.

He can even take it to court if he has enough evidence and documentation.

A lot of times, it's also the fault of the managers and business owners.

Sadly, there are owners who blatantly steal tip money. They're even stealing their employees precious time too!

The whole thing wouldn't be an issue if the manager isn't stealing the tip money and she's treating all her employees fairly. This may be petty revenge on the OP's part.

But we can all agree that whatever repercussions the OP's move creates, his manager deserves it. If she gets fired from her job, it's all on her — she's a bully and a thief, after all!

We hope the OP finds a new job with a better working environment and supervisor.
