If you’re gonna prank call people or businesses, you better be ready to get it back in return.

And all we can say is that we are mightily impressed by this story from Reddit’s “Petty Revenge” page.

Check out what this restaurant manager did to get even with some kids who definitely messed with the wrong person.

Annoy me at work with prank calls? Enjoy getting updates about Seattle.

“I’m the manager at a late night chicken and waffle place in the “Gayborhood.”

Our waffles are “anatomically correct” and as such, we have some fun.

It’s good food, good atmosphere, and good customers.

Darn kids…

Well, as should be expected, a group of kids (young teens by the sound) constantly prank call us.

Usually just thinking they’re funny by calling us ‘gay’ or whatever stupid stuff.

For the most part we play with them.

One of us likes to mess with them, I like to answer their questions honestly and in excruciating detail (not graphic cause they’re kids), one of us likes to mock them for not having anything better to do.

It’s all in good fun and no one gets hurt.

After several hangups, we will unplug the phone, which means all the calls are then forwarded to my cell (yay for being the manager).

So by the end of the night, I’ll have dozens of missed calls, some of which are important but I ignored because I didn’t want to deal with the kids.

He had enough.

This is has been going off and on for almost a year now, and I finally hit my limit.

I wanted to waste their time like they’ve wasted mine.

Problem is, they’re kids, so I can’t go too extreme.

Can’t post the number on Craigslist selling a TV or apartment or whatever because I don’t want a creep getting ahold of their number.

That’s not ok.

Meanwhile, I don’t want to send any religious things to them because that could also backfire.

So what’s a service that calls and/or texts relentlessly about everything.

What about services utilizing tax dollars and needing to justify the spending?

Why, local governments do that!

Bingo!

After some Googling, I found that King County in Washington has a robust information providing service!

And all they need is a phone number!

So here I am thinking, these kids will get so annoyed getting info on local elections for Seattle.

Oh no, no, no friends.

They provide updates on traffic, local elections, water services, road closures, waste management, a newsletter about wetland conservation, parks and recreation, public transit, the judges, taxes, what the accountants are doing, the school board, and about 600 other boxes I clicked to be informed about anything and everything related to Seattle and surrounding towns.

This is glorious!

And the best part?

They will have to unsubscribe to each and every single text. “But can’t they unsubscribe from the master list?” you might ask.

Of course they can, online.

And I created the account using the kid’s number and my own password.

And there’s no way they’ll guess it, as it’s a computer generated password.

Whoops.

I really hope this inspires them to want to move to that beautiful corner of the country.

Will they stop calling me?

God, no. They aren’t learning any lessons.

But they will be just as annoyed as I am. And that’s worth it.”
