Karma is very real and this story is a living proof of that!

Imagine being the new hire at a company, but one of your coworkers refuses to answer any of your questions, even a simple yes/no question. Would you be upset about this, or would you ask someone else for help?

This guy shares how a coworker at his previous job refused to help him.

Check out the full story to find out what happened when she needed his help!

“Sorry, it’s not in my job description”

Several years ago I worked a sales job I hated.

I was brand new, barely given any training….like a half day to learn how to operate their system.

One of my coworkers who sat next to me was one of the top sales reps in the department.

The purpose of sitting a newbie and someone like her together was so the noob learns. But, teaching junior reps is technically not in her job description.

The coworker really didn’t want to help her.

That leads me to a day I have a potential sale on the phone and I got stuck on product knowledge due to my newness.

I asked her a simple yes/no question and she tells me, “Sorry. It’s not in my job description to help you.”

I ended up trying to find someone else for help and by the time I got the answer, the prospect already hung up.

This is where it gets interesting!

Shortly afterwards, I left that company and found my footing where I currently have been nearly the last decade.

We got a new sales rep on our team last week Guess who it is. 😂

She knows who I am too.

He had the perfect opportunity to get back at her!

A few minutes ago, she just asked me a product-related question and I said those same exact words back to her with a huge smirk on my face!

“Sorry, it’s not in my job description.”

Hahahaha Finally! Justice is mine! She lost the sale because of the same reason I lost mine to top it off

My boss is probably gonna talk to me about this later. I DGAF

YIKES! That was fun!

That rude coworker got a taste of her own medicine!
