Her Coworker Got Her Written Up For A Mistake They Made, Sl This Retail Associate Hatched A Plan To Get Revenge
by Michael Levanduski
When you are working at a retail location, it is important to get along with everyone and work together to get sales.
What would you do if one of your coworkers kept messing things up and trying to blame it on you?
That is what happened to the sales associate in this story, so she set her co-worker up to make a huge mistake that got her demoted.
Check it out.
Make me look bad on the job? Well we’ll see about that.
I worked at a clothing store in a mall for a year and a half it was not fun, but I was think back to my time their recently and I forgot this golden gem of Pro revenge.
So a new girl had just been hired as many new people did in that job and right away you could tell she thought she was hot stuff.
We’re talking acting like a manager, talking how many hours she had and worst of all she wouldn’t shut up about all the dudes she was banging and how the money she got from them was the most important part.
People like that are the worst.
To put it lightly she was a cold hearted woman who made everyone feel bad about their “insignificant” lives as she put it.
Here’s where things go down.
In our store all the racks were milled steel bars and hooks so really hard to break and really expensive.
They could however be bent out of shape if enough heavy coats stay on them for long periods of time.
Ms. Hot Stuff here though it would be a good idea to impress the management by putting all the coats on the same rack using the milled steel bars instead of a circular rack that wouldn’t warp.
I protested of course as I’d been their longer but she said: ” I get paid more than you so do what I say.”
She got hired as a key holder our of the gate so she made a dollar more than I did per hour.
I go along with it put the heavy winter coats up on the milled steel and go about my life.
Well 2 weeks later the milled steel is of course warped and when management saw this they flipped (cheapo store any cost was bad to them).
This woman is awful.
Anyways she blames it on me and I get written up for it, now I refused to sign so they gave me less hours which also cut my pay.
Because she lied I was now making 50% less than before and had a formal written complaint against me, to say I was ticked off wouldn’t even start.
So I devised a plan go get back at her.
You see the drywall on the center pillars had sustained water damage for an early melt earlier that year making them extremely soft.
However, they provide some of the largest coverage of shelf space in the entire store meaning basically a good 20% of shelf space couldn’t be used.
Now the kicker is Ms. Hot Stuff didn’t know about this as she came in a week after it had happened and to the naked eye you wouldn’t think the pillar couldn’t be used as there was banners on it to try and hide the yellowing.
She instantly wanted to use this idea.
I may have suggested what a waste not being able to have product on the pillars was.
How of someone could come up with a nice display it would bring in a lot of customers due to how people could see it from the mall main floor (we were just off the food court).
Her eyes lit up.
Now here’s the thing, I was taking a small break to a nice snowy lake cabin the next day.
The people she had working with her where the manager or the temps who were not allowed to handle marketing and logistics (e.i. putting shelves/ rack up on the wall due to their cost and the incident that got me wrote up.)
Now I knew she wouldn’t want the managers to see it because she wanted all the glory from it, (she wanted to show to our 3 stores in the mall that her store was the best while the managers weren’t around).
So, she being with a temp and them not being able to put up shelving put the heavy winter clothing on milled steel racks attached to the soft drywall pillars.
Within a week the drywall on the pillars collapsed and ruined $500 worth of product.
Now she tried to shift blame on me but I was away for the whole week so it could not have been me because obviously that can’t happen if I’m in the forest hundreds of miles from civilization.
So no dice there and she promptly got charged with the repair, demoted to sales associate and written up for what they finally realized was not just this but the one they wanted me to sign.
That is an expensive mistake.
The repair was $2,500 plus the $500 stock that got destroyed when 40 pounds of dry wall came crushing down on it.
But I wasn’t done yet.
You see our manager in our store specifically was pretty chill and she’s still a personal friend to me, she had a group chat so we could talk off hours and keep up to date.
Now as I mentioned before she wouldn’t shut up about all the men she was playing and how the only thing that mattered was the money .
And boy oh boy did she use the group chat to say a lot of this.
Sometimes one of these dudes would come around and take her for lunch.
Let’s just say when she was in the back for a little while finishing something up that I let them see the text channel if they promised not to let her know I told them.
So often they’d go on their lunch date and after 1 or 2 days she’d be down a man.
Good for him.
Finally this boiled over when one of them took her phone saw how many guys she had being using for money and messaged all of them about how much of a lying cheat she was.
After 2 months her fountain of man money dried up.
Demoted to a sales associate she didn’t have the money to spend on all her lavish nights out or designer clothing.
She eventually moved up to another store for more hours and stole money from the till causing her to get fired.
A fitting end to a backstabbing ice queen I think.
I eventually left that job after half a year later to pursue my current job.
People who will throw others under the bus are the worst.
Let’s read on to see what the people in the comments think about it.
Good point, this may be illegal.
Yup, just gave her the idea.
This person questions whether this story is real.
Yeah, these stories are the best.
Yup, she just let her hang herself.
I’m glad she got what was coming to her.
People like this usually do.
