Vandalism really lights my fuse. In my last rental I had neighbors with whom we shared a carport and who kept keying our Audi and my Ducati. I could never catch them doing it, but the way they'd smirk when accused confirmed it unequivocably. They had me in a total froth. Most of all, I wanted to carve satanic symbols into the hoods of their cars and then kill them all with a samurai sword. I decided at a certain point (I guess when we closed on our first home 20 miles away) that revenge or even comeuppance was impossible to effect without screwing myself. That's uncharacteristically Christian of me, but nowadays I'm alive, healthy and have still never seen the inside of a jail... maybe that's the best revenge I can expect.

Reminds me of the Bank my wife had worked at.

Some lady got p*ssed off in the drive through and threw the little canister out in the parking lot, then drove over it.

The manager (along with everyone else in the bank watching) walked over to the teller at the driver through to her terminal, which still had the lady's account up, and deducted the $75 for the canister right then.

I had a ex-girl friend write a-hole (with a key) on the hood and doors of my expedition. $2200 later I dated her sister. Revenge is so sweet!

Another reason for me to attempt remaining single...heh, heh, heh!



2-doctor office:

Dr.#1: Yoh, partner!

Dr.#2: What's up!

Dr.#1: Are you screwing my secretary?

Dr.#2: (with little hesitation and some stuttering...) No! Why?

Dr.#1: Good. You fire her!

When I first read this post, my initial reaction was: I wonder what the real story is?

In the vast majority of cases when a disgruntled employee seeks personal revenge there is a percieved or real "relationship" between employee and employer that is not entirely businesslike. Be careful out there, boys.

I guess when a possible future employer calls to verify her past employment...they might get some extra info from you guys..i.e. ."well..you didn't hear this from me but when she left....").

Totally disagree - in my experience, people want to blame anyone but themselves for getting fired. I had a car vandalized back in the 80s by a guy I had let go. Why did I fire him? Oh, he didn't show up for a week, no calls or explanation (He'd decided on the spur of the moment to take a road trip to Vegas). So you can see how that was all my fault.

You fired him for that? I could never work for you.



The original post involves female employee of male doctor. Seen this too many times.

Revenge...
- Call the utility company and cut off their electric and gas
- Call the telephone company and shut off their telephone
- Send a change of address form to the post office (helps if you have a friend living somewhere else)

There are others, just use your imagination.

Help with Parts Diagrams !!!

Sorry that I'm so dense, but I can't seem to find a way of accessing the part numbers of parts in the parts diamgrams on the WebPage.

How do I get these part numbers?

Yeah, that would be entertaining but that's also a federal offense if you get caught...
