Some teenage dudes throwing pebbles at the gorilla at the San Diego zoo…gorilla threw back with a fresh handful of [feces], right in the dudes face. My dad, the Marine, peed his pants laughing. Glorious!
I’m a teacher. In my country, all teachers get paid a set amount by the government that goes up the longer you’re a teacher. There’s different rates for extra responsibilities, relief, part time full time etc. In my first year, I worked at a really toxic school (staff were toxic, students were awesome). I was doing a mixture of relief and part time regular hours. They weren’t paying me properly. They were only paying me for time I was actually teaching when they should have paid me for some non teaching hours since I’d often have classes at opposite ends of the day. I hard an argument at the time and was basically told, you’re new, you don’t understand the pay system, if you’re going to complain we’ll stop giving you hours. That was 10 years ago. A few weeks ago I got an email from the ministry of education. They had done an audit of that school, dating back to 2012, and found they’d been paying teachers incorrectly for relief work. I got a gigantic back pay.
I was in the passing lane on the highway slowly coming up on a couple of cars in the right lane. The speed limit was about to decrease ahead and the another car came up behind me going pretty fast. Instead of gasing it to get ahead of the traffic to my right I slowed down and pulled in behind them, with the car behind me right on my [rear]. Once I got into the right lane the car floored it and passed me honking the horn and the passenger’s body was half out of the car window yelling at me and flipping me off as they passed. Turns out the car I pulled in behind was an unmarked state trooper who promptly pulled them over. Justice.
Iâm a server in a luxury hotel restaurant.
My coworker had a 10-top, and the guy who organized it was being a [jerk] the whole service.
When it came time to pay the bill, not only was he rude to rest of the staff about how he needed to pay so they could leave, he acted as though we had done him wrong by not accepting his payment in a timely manner.
His card gets declined and he has to ask his guests to cover the bill đ.
When I was a Learner driver, I was driving the right speed during school zones (here, that’s 40km/hr). There was a car tailgating me the entire time and then as we turned a corner with the school’s bus bay it cut into the bay to overtake me and the driver threw his middle finger up at me out the window as he sped away.
We get to the end of the street to find that we have caught up with that car…being pulled over by the cops and receiving a ticket for speeding in a school zone. Dude was going at least 60k/hr and the fine for that can be up to $2000. Most satisfying moment of instant karma I’ve ever seen.
I was a $15/hr ski resort employee. I found a wallet containing $750 and turned it in. I was later asked to the office to meet the guy who owned the wallet. He gave me $100 as reward.
As a group of teenagers driving on a back road at night, in the snow, we were going pretty slow and a group of other teens went speeding around us and they had their windows rolled down and were hanging out, yelling and gesturing, being obnoxious because we were going slow. We went around a corner a few minutes later and they were in the ditch. We had a lot of fun yelling and gesturing at them as we slowly and safely drove by.
My cheating ex has become impotent. The kind of impotence where even a needle directly in the dingus won’t help. It’s glorious.
Former boss terminated me because I kept pushing to meet compliance.
The following month they got audited and slapped with some 7-8 figure fines.
I was once in a play where I was double cast with another kid (Two people taking turns to play the same role). We were very different body types. When it came time to get costumes fitted, the crew rented me something off the rack, but they decided they’d have to make her something custom fitted. She was super mad that I got to have a costume before she did, so she tried to make me feel bad by saying it looked like I was wearing an old set of curtains. They ended up making her costume from scratch…out of a set of old curtains.
My childhood bully making fun of me becuase I was very very short. At 33 I’m now 6 foot and he never really grew (like 5,5) and got bald at 24.
With glee, I ran over a bee on my tricycle once. Aimed for it on purpose and then SPLAT. Minutes later I got called into the house and I stepped on that same bee, stuck with stinger up, in my bare feet. It hurt so badly. I told my mom everything and she told me I got exactly what I deserved. I agreed.
Working at a restaurant, we had a 16yo girl working as a dishwasher/prep for the summer. One day she cut herself pretty bad, no stitches but it was a gusher and she was scared.
Couple days later, she comes back she has her finger bandaged up. She’s getting ready to cut some veggies and one of the cooks, a [jerk] mid-20s, starts teasing her “Hey, don’t cut yourself!!” then he proceeds to cut himself **immediately** after saying it. He actually needed a few stitches.
That karma was beautiful, but it got even better when he came back and she sarcastically razzes him with “Hey, don’t cut yourself!!”.
I was at a party one time, and this one girl couldn’t stop talking [trash] about this other girl that was coming to the party. The other girl shows up and this dude picked her up and hugged her and spun her around in a way where her foot kicked the girl that was talking [trash] right in the head/face while she was sitting on the couch. Her beer spilled all over her and she caught a black eye.
I work in an ER and once a girl got brought in by ambulance after being [attacked]. She was walking down the street when some guy tackled her to the ground and tried to drag her down an alley. A Good Samaritan managed to chase him off and call the cops.
Like 20 minutes later they brought in a guy in full cardiac arrest. Turns out the police found the attacker and chased him several blocks when he collapsed and his heart gave out. The victim IDed him right in the ER.
When i was in middle school i was sitting at lunch with my normal lunch group. There wasnt enoungh room for this one guy at the table so he sat at the table next to us by himself. One of our friends felt bad so he left our table and sat next to him. The kid who was originally sitting by himself moved to our table, took the other guys old spot and leaving the other guy completely alone. We all moved to the other table and left him alone again.
I had a student who was the most annoying guy ever. He loved to push buttons and taunt, then claim he was the victim. He was in my English class and one of the few students I can ever say I disliked.
Also in my class were 2 brothers -B and C. Both decent kids who’d spent some time in juvie and were trying to get on the right track. They had just moved to out district to live with their dad. Unbeknownst to other students their mother [had] AIDS.
It was right at the end of class and the kids were putting their books up and I let them stand around and chat for 5 minutes until the bell rang. I didn’t hear the conversation but was filled in later. Annoying kid had focused on the brothers – specifically the younger one and was telling him he was dirt and worthless. The bell rang and as it did annoying kid made his big mistake. He told the younger brother “Yeah I’m better than you, that’s why you’re going to get AIDS and [pass away].” He then got exactly 3 steps out into the hallway when older brother sucker punched him.
Annoying kid was out cold with a broken jaw. As another teacher and I tended to him and called for help, older brother calmly walked to the office, and took a seat outside the assistant principals office to face his consequences.
A 10 day suspension later, he returned and the only thing he would say about the incident was “It was worth it.” Annoying kid began to keep his mouth shut after that.
When I was a teacher, one of my students was extremely disruptive and I was at my witâs end. I called his mom and she acted like I made the whole thing up because âshe raised her son better and he wouldnât do that.â
Two days later, he got caught vandalizing part of the school and his mom had to pay for the damages.
I’m from San Diego and during the summer, you have to a claim bonfire pits on the beach really in the morning if you want it for that night. So my friends and I got to the beach at 8am and stayed there so we can get a bonfire going into the night.
Just before sundown, this one couple asked if they could share the bonfire with us and since our group wasn’t too big, we decided to share it with them. However that couple proceeded to bring a group of like 15 others and they literally surrounded the pit and pushed us out.
We were [angry] but we were so tired from being at the beach all day so we decided to head out. Little did we know what that night had an extreme high tide warning and when we moved all of our stuff over the wall that divided the beachwalk with the beach, a huge wave came in and washed out that whole group surrounded by our bonfire.
The wave flipped over their table of food, took a handful of sandals back into the ocean, and destroyed all their stuff. The best part was this one girl was trying to jump the wall to save herself but she didnt jump high enough and ended up falling right back into the waters. Karma.
When I was driving my Jeep very carefully in a snow storm and someone in a Mustang passed me in an unsafe manner. He almost lost control of his car, which would have caused an accident that included me. Picture someone dangerously fish-tailing right in front of you with an 18 wheeler coming at you in the other lane.
Saw him in the ditch about 5 minutes later. Idiot.
I worked as a bartender at a bowling alley. For some reason one of the other bartenders *hated* me. She was constantly poaching people on my side (horseshoe-shaped bar, so we each got a side), we split tips and whenever it was her turn to count them down I *know* she wasn’t splitting them properly, tried to get the scheduling manager to put her on my days, etc. One of my regulars even said she caught her pocketing tips and not putting them in our communal bucket while I was working with her.
Well, tournament season started, which everyone dreaded/looked forward to. Dreaded because the shifts were twice or three times as long as normal and there was a constant rush of people at the bar. Looked forward to because shifts were two or three times as long as normal and there was a constant rush of people at the bar, so we’d make as much in a day as we did in a week.
Well, the first tournament was teams that she considered ‘hers,’ they bowled on her side on days she worked, so she knew them well and was looking forward to their tournament tips. She came in, saw that I was scheduled to bar tend that day, and flipped out. She started ranting to the manager (who happened to be the scheduling manager) and the owner of the place happened to be standing there. The owner pretty much said I was one of the better bartenders so I was getting put on the tournaments, and if she didn’t like it she could just leave.
My coworker left. And then I got to work her normal shifts as well.
When I was in 7th grade, after school, a bully picked a fight with another kid. The kid kind of wrestled the bully to the ground and the bullies head landed in a big pile of dog [dump].
Instant karma.
Woman on a cell phone runs me off the road. Flips me off for laying on the horn.
The road ends a mile up the road. She was going right and I was a ways back going left. A van was in front of her at the red light and she just plows into the back of it.
I slow down as I passed with the window down. “Running me off the road wasn’t enough to get your attention, huh?”
She flips out; I laugh and drive off into the sunset.
This happened to me. When I was younger (high school) my city had automatic sprinklers in most of the parks and areas with grass – they would turn on automatically at like 3 or 4 am. So being a young dumb kid me and my friends figured out if you kicked them hard enough the top would break off and the sprinkler would full force shoot a huge stream into the air from then on. We thought it was hilarious and were never caught. We kept on with this until one day they started replacing them with new super strong steel ones. I kicked one and broke my big toe and while in agony rolled my ankle so bad it was bruised up for a week and has never been the same.
Neighbors on the balcony next door having a smashing time throwing bottles to the sidewalk, can’t get any sleep and I have to wake up at 7:30am. Make the decision to get my rest and request officers to survey the scene. Watching from my window I see three fratties picking up glass under the flashlights of two deputies. With this issue resolved, I guess you could say I called the KARMA POLICE.
When my ex-husband who stole $4000 from me to go visit his mistress in another country called me to beg for money (actually my credit card number–as if!) because his lights got cut off.
Math teacher in HS gave me terrible grades in his class. I thought I had a solid B+ but was given barely passing grade. My home life was terrible so I didnât have the wherewithal to figure out what was happening, I thought it was me. Gave up on math all together.
Eventually, at a CC, I discovered I was actually great at math. After many years of hard work, I finished an engineering degree.
I found out later several female students had taken this teacher and the school district to court over discrimination. They were all top students and he was failing them all. The case was settled out of court and he was told to retire immediately. It came out that heâd been doing this his entire career.
His retirement was short lived, he became very ill from a disease that [ended] him quickly. I wouldnât wish that on anyone and I didnât but it happened.
I work for a contracted unloading service in a warehouse. One of the guys on my crew is an absolute little [jerk] sometimes. Complains about his work, tries to leave early every day, bums cigarettes off everyone without ever bringing his own pack, etc. He even owes some of my other coworkers money, I believe. But I digress.
On Thursday, he lost his [cool] over a produce load and threw a temper tantrum: kicking boxes, tearing down tall pallets of product, and causing a lot of damage… Right as the site manager walked by his trailer door. Got suspended without pay and was told he is on his last chance with the company. Now it’s only a matter of time before he gets fired. Sweet, sweet, karma.
I was kicking a customer out for being racist and cursing at one of my employees. He yelled offensive stuff all and then he tried to slam the door on his way out, but it had one of those things on it that makes the door close slowly. He pushed it hard, it didn’t budge and he slipped and fell on the floor. We had a good laugh.
On a trip backpacking around Greece once I had a bad experience in a hotel and decided to take one of their beautifully painted stone eggs from the bowl in the reception as compensation. When we were on the ferry to the next island I started noticing a horrible smell coming from my bag. It turns out that it was not a stone egg at all, but a painted boiled egg that had broken in my bag, the whole thing had become so rotten it had turned a nice shade of green and the smell was almost intolerable. I had to borrow a lot of my friends clothes for the rest of the trip but at least it taught me a good lesson.
Late to the party… some little toddler punk grabbed at the just poured hot coffee meant for me. The barrista tried to stop the kid but this kid was not having it. He took a huge sip, I think mistaking it for the pumpkin spice latte his momma ordered for him while in line before me, and promptly made a face, spit it out, and dropped the hot coffee all over himself. Cries ensue. Mom berates the employee for letting this happen. Waving her own large frapp wildly in the air. Little hellion is still throwing full tantrum on the floor, pulls at his mom’s pants and then the frapp falls on him too.
I giggled.
There was a man who lived on the next block who used to ride his dirtbike on the streets, which is illegal here. He wouldn’t just ride to a trail, he would ride recklessly weaving through traffic.
When his kid learned to ride, he began teaching his kid how to cut off cars and weave through traffic.
One day either him or his kid caused a significant accident on a major crossroad. Another time a driver swerved into a telephone pole to avoid hitting him. We all knew it was him but, camera’s weren’t prevalent at the time and there was no real evidence of it.
Then finally he was showing off on the nearby highway when he cut someone off, then fell off his bike hitting the ground so hard his helmet flew off, and was then run over by one of the cars he cut off.
He lived through it but is down an arm and confined to a wheelchair.
Honestly? The relationship I have with my family now. Itâs very distant and I never ask for help from them. My parents used to yell at me constantly about how I needed to stop relying on them and grow up. As a 10 year old. They now try to give me money or help me with things and I just donât take any of the offers. I donât want to be a burden like they treated as ever again. I can do it myself.
My first job was in a kitchen at a nursing home. Our manager was going to leave for a new job elsewhere, so his spot opened up. One of the nurses decided that he wanted that spot, so he started learning how to run the kitchen. He was a huge jerk that thought he was better than us because he was nursing staff, but wanted to be our boss because I think it paid more. He gets the job and I quit because I hated him. I learn that a few weeks after I left, he did such a bad job that he was fired and they wouldnât let him have his old job back.
At an old job there was a manager who openly stated that he got his position because he was golf buddies with one of the district managers. At first when he took over things seemed to stay the same but things started getting weird. He’d always tell us that he would take care of electronic returns and items and to not worry about putting them away. If things were quiet around the store he would keep an eye out for “attractive” women and those wearing low cut shirts and would always go to the cashier these women were at and tell the cashier to go help someone else (usually a member doing stock or something). He would also stop caring about certain procedures but will put the blame on someone else should something go wrong.
After a couple of months of working for him he suddenly stops showing up along with another member of staff. I thought they were on vacation but as it turns out both of them were arrested for various charges the main one of which was for grand larceny. Apparently the two were marking high end electronic items as damaged (mostly ipads) and instead of throwing them into the bin for returns would take them and try to sell them. They blamed each other and both were charged one of who was handcuffed and led out the front door on a day I wasn’t working.
A co worker of mine (who I actually like) was riding passenger in a small crane rig, when he got on site he went to get out of the truck and start talking [trash], and in the middle of saying “hey I didn’t know they sent the Girl Scou-” slipped and fell out of the cab and landed face first in the mud. It was insta-karma. And quite hilarious.
Some drunk AH driving Very close to my bumper on 290 in Chicago, all they way up by Itasca where 290 splits and goes N, while the south leg turns into 355. Dude was yelling at me and purple faced, bec I flipped him off in my rear view, and for about a mile, was screaming and coming very close to my car. I call 911, operator tells me there an officer right behind us – who follows the guy who sees the cop, and pulls off to the right, to exit N 290 toward Itasca. Last I saw his angry face and I was pointing and laughing, and cop lights up behind him, it was so glorious.
Driving to Chicago and a crazy guy is road raging swerving erratically while yelling about shooting us. He zooms off.
5 or so miles later we see his van upside-down in the ditch. He’s standing on the shoulder talking to a cop.
