With this insight, I help them deepen their self-awareness and see the impact of their actions on others.

learned how to cry on command so next time he said something outrageously rude i turned on the tears, made him panic and feel super guilty for like a week
I would get in before them and lower their desk chair all the way to the ground and move their keyboard a foot to the left, and raise the monitors. I would gaslight them and be like “no that’s how “No that’s how your desk always is”. They quit after me doing this 2 months straight every day.
I applied for every weird job available and used their work email and our bosses phone number to call him.
I worked at a school, she was a teacher that made my little sister cry during her class. I quietly went in and whispered the most unhinged stuff to her and then smiled politely and walked out……
She trauma dumps every day I finally had it and said “you should talk to a therapist not us , they’re the professional”
Replied to every one of their passive-aggressive emails with ‘per my last email’ and CC’d their boss😇
I’m uncomfortably direct. “I feel like I’ve noticed some tension in our working relationship and I’m wondering if i’ve done something to upset you” (I didn’t- tehe) and just watch them panic.

intentionally misspell their name…gets em every time
I did t do this but I had a colleague who would refuse to interact directly with this one guy and would make him interact with a glove puppet This may or may not or may have happened on the london trading floor of a Swiss reinsurance company in the 1990s.
One lady stomped thru the office when she’s mad. I said FEE-FI-FO-FUM HERE SHE COMES! When she came to me I told her no one cares about the tantrum you’re having. She quit 👋🏼
sign them up for the most unhinged subscriptions on their work email. also flyer subscriptions if you know their address, or if they have a personal work box, even better.
I put this goose app on his laptop that steals your cursor and he’s bad at his job, bad at technology, and too on his high horse to ask for help so he hasn’t managed to fix it (it’s been 3 weeks)
Stay friendly, but document every time they are unprofessional at work, include witnesses and dates. Report findings to leadership when necessary.
Positive gossip! If they are badmouthing you behind your back people will ask you about them to find the tea, just be respectful, compliment them (don’t over do it) and they will look bad instead
I would stare at someone’s forehead because they got massive frown lines whenever they had a tantrum, it used to throw them off 😅
My coworker would do NOTHING, literally no work.. and would steal my work to take credit with clients. So I password protected it all and cc’d her into EVERY email as point of contact. Then eventually she had so much work, she kept asking for the password. She missed deadlines and got sacked finally
every single day i’d ask her if she was okay because she looked like she’d been crying (she didn’t)
Never let them finish a conversation. Always walk off before it’s over so they know that they’re wasting my time with their presence
Do petty things that they get mad over but cant express their anger because they will be seen as the villain. While being nice in their face

I started offering him small treats every time he saw me and conditioned him Pavlov style to like me. He was confused and didn’t know why he got excited to see me. And then I started being extremely cruel and crushed his spirit. By the time I quit, he couldn’t look anyone in the eye.
I keep asking what her role is…and remind her that she isn’t my manager when she answers
