Underpaying employees has sort of become a trend all around the world. The management just does not want to respect its employees, in fact, they make active efforts to make them feel like sh*t. Now, what is their purpose behind it, only they know. All I know is that this never worked in the favor of the bad managers in the long turn, they always have to face defeat, one way or the other they get taught a lesson.
Reddit user u/This_Manner_256 used to work for a big company as their videographer, aiding the social media campaigns but would get paid unfairly. Because he needed money at the time, he had to compromise. The office environment was also so bad, the bad managers would purposefully create conflicts between employees so they fight.
After half a year of working there, OP finally asked for a pay raise, and in response, they fired him. Years later nature has OP an opportunity to take revenge as he found that a Google Cloud service he pays for still has a folder that is being used by the company for work. The folder had thousands of hours of videos, templates, scripts, and everything in it that would be used for social media campaigns. Because it was OP’s personal account and he was paying for it, he decided to delete it, making the company lose all its video work.

1. The company must have done this person really dirty for him to do this. Let’s find out what happened.
2. OP used to work as a videographer for a company that did not pay him fairly but he still did it because he needed money.
3. Working 6 months for a company that treats you like trash…look what desperation does to you.
4. The office environment was also very toxic. The management would forcefully do stunts to make the workers fight with each other.
5. OP finally presented his case before the top management that the efforts he is putting in deserve a much higher pay and hence he should get one.
6. OP shared his desire to continue working for the company but it would only happen if he gets paid fairly.
7. And guess what they did? They fired him for asking to be treated fairly.
8. One decision by the company put OP in so much financial trouble.
Oh my god, can you believe this? They fired an employee who was demanding to be treated fairly. What was wrong with that? They will definitely suffer without OP that is for sure because for 6 months he put in heavy effort to help generate the required sales even though they were underpaying him. He was a precious asset and they made a mistake by kicking it in the back.
Let’s see what happens with OP, and what he does next. Scroll down below to continue reading!
9. Years later, OP found a folder in his personal Google Drive account that was still actively being used by the company. It contained a lot of templates and even finalized videos.
10. OP was personally paying for this cloud service so he owned it and can do anything with it. It will be legal.
11. OP decided to make a copy of all the contents in the folder and deleted the online version from the cloud…for everyone.
12. All that thousands of hours of work…just gone.
Here are some of the comments shared on the story:
