Lunchtime can be serious in the workplace, and sometimes people who are hangry do crazy things.
See how one Redditor retaliates when a co-worker cuts in line to use the microwave.
Let’s read the story below to find out all the details…
Microwave shenanigans
I was relatively new to my job [and] waiting for the bloke in front of me to be finished with the microwave, so I could heat up my food next.
When it was my turn, this older guy pushed in front and put his food in.
And when I said, “Hey, mate I was next,” he said he didn’t care and [asked what I was] going to do about it.
Oh, this man definitely did something about it.
The microwave was sitting on this white heavy cabinet and [I], being somewhat strong fella, dragged it off and away from the wall, [ripping] the microwave power cord out.
[I] dragged the cabinet back to the wall and said, “Now, we both eat cold lunches.”
He took his cold lunch out, called me a jerk, and we ate our cold lunches in silence.
Pretty awkward, but there’s a sweet ending.
Not a super intense funny story, but I was stoked I stood up for my self, albeit petty.
We are mates now, though, so all is well.
Hopefully, their hangry behavior is just a funny memory now. Let’s see what Reddit has to say.
Some Redditors pitched on alternate revenge plans.
Others were surprised that there wasn’t a consequence attached to such rash behavior.
And others questioned the level of petty revenge executed.
This seems like an overreaction — and ultimately, he ruined his lunch in the process!
