There are 2 guys who are clearly jealous off me or soemthing.

THe just make rude, nasty remarks and try to ''act above me'' or say things to belittle me over and over.

Conitnually making sex remarks or ret*d remarks etc..trying to be cool.

At first I would turn the tables and play along

eg..

Scenario: Im holding lighter
He says: Kids shouldnt play with lighters
ME syay: yeh I might blow up the place

Scenario: Go to see boss
He says: Im waiting too your in quee and your last
I say: Yeh im last in a 2 man queue

Sceanario: I had mentioned about my private life somehat (wish I hadnt)
He syas: SO you just sit in your room and play video games and play with yourself all night
Me: Yes I like it!! !


Its on and on and on and on...every time gets a chance stupid remark

Im thinking completely ignmoring and not respondign to guy at all now. Not even trying to get revaneg or stand up for myself just completely ignore him as if he dont exsit as if Im deaf. Im sure theyll get fed up soon enough?

I have spit in people's drinks and food when left unattended. I am pretty sure they would do the same to me if I was dumb enough to leave my stuff exposed

I put expanding foam in a guy's tool box

I have dipped a person's coat in water then froze it in a walk in freezer then put his coat back before he clocked out

In the middle of winter I spent 8 hours pouring 5 gallon buckets of chicken greese on a guys car until it looked like a glazed donut

I threw a guys car keys on the roof and in a pond

I put french fries all over a guys motorcycle so seaguls would eat them and crap all over the bike and helmet

I poured chicken greese in a woman's purse then froze it in the freezer so the greece would not leak out.

I put whole raw chicken in the ceiling tiles above people's prep areas so they would smell rotten meat while I was on vaction. :twisted:

I split the bottoms of boxes full of lettuce and cabbage then put them on the top shealf so when someone tried to pull out a box the contents will drop on their heads.

I allowed someone to burn a machine's motor out even though I smelt it because we were getting ready for our employee evaluations and he called me a ret*d.

I tied five woman's purses together with a steel cable we use to secure deck chairs with but I put a new lock on it right before I went home.

I made a trail of french fries to the back door to let a seagul in the prep area right before I left. It flew all over the dinning room causing my tormentors to chase it out an open door and they had to clean up its poop.

I found a co-worker's wallet I put two way tape on all his money sticking all together.

One of my special intrests is f#cking with people. :P :twisted:

Ignoring might work...try it and see how they respond.

If this continues, I'd notify someone in a higher position...since this is tecnically considered harrassment.

You should teach classes about revenge, teaching students how to get revenge. That put you in business. :P


But then again I'd be too afraid to interact with you fearing what if I say something stupid or wrong.

Sounds like some people I know.

People like that probably don't like those who they perceive of as different or perhaps have something unique or interesting about them.

How much of this checklist have you noticed and from there I can proceed to tell you what to do. Ignoring doesn't always work, in fact, they push that much harder to force you to leave or humiliate you.

Cookie Cutter Mentality Checklist-

1. Loves attention. If someone else is getting more attention acts jealous
2. Makes as many friends as possible.
3. Uses those friends to turn them against someone they don't like.
4. Brags about their life or even lies about how great they are.
5. Exaggerates their income earned or position in a company.
6. You notice their good friends look like them. Same body size or superficial similarities.
7. Turns themselves into victims pretending somehow it's over you to gain sympathy from their friends. (That is if the person is jealous of you.)
8. Spreads gossip about you.
9. If you say something personal about yourself, uses it to make fun of you. (you already mentioned this)
10. Someone who is higher up appears to like you more and it pisses off someone who feels entitled to move up. The only way is to push you down.
11. People know about your aspergers or autism so they try to set you off.


If at least 7 of these are accurate, you are dealing with a bully with a cookie cutter mentality that hates people that are different than them. They will lie about you behind your back, get people against you, use those people to hurt you, smile really big in front of your face and eventually chase you off. Their goal is to put you in your place which is letting you know that you aren't allowed to have friends. You aren't allowed to climb up the ladder. You just aren't allowed period.

They are trying to control you.

It is crucial for us different people to start coming together for the sake of our existence, our present, our future and our children's future. Those people have no care for people like us. NONE. Don't think they will feel guilty and stop. They won't.

Type A personalities defend other Type A personalities. If someone in higher command is a Type A personality, think they will come in to your defense? The person may act as though they will talk to the others about knocking it off meanwhile really giving high fives and laughing when they all go hang out at the bar together. Then it gets worse.

You should instead network with others who are similar to you. If you are lucky and have someone higher up in command that is similar to you, go ahead and address your complaints but if not, you'll be better off not going about this solo. When someone sees that you have no friends, they gang up on that person and make sure that that person stays isolated by making friends with as many people as possible.

There is an exploit to that system however. Those kinds of people will only make friends with those who are like them. That leaves out people who aren't their preference which are those who are into geeky hobbies and even closeted geeks. The problem with closeted geeks however can be that they try so hard not to show just how geeky they really are that they end up being messengers to those they wish to blend in with.

You alone= target
You + others like you= force to be reckoned with.

They love social competition and the main reason why those types end up moving up the ladder quickly is due to their drive of social competition, elimination of threats (including those who really are smart and aren't fake), networking even though some of their friends aren't really friends but mere pawns.

Ask questions. Bullies hate questions and being questioned.

For example:

"So did you have a good time masturbating to internet porn?"

you can ask

"Why do you want to know? Are you secretly a voyeur?"

If the person has nothing to say back but just stares blankly then now you know this person has a weakness.

Come up with several different questions to ask back if that happens.

These things were mostly done at a resteraunt I worked at. Half the employees there went to high school with me and knew I was in special education so they ran around telling people I was ret*d. If they saw me talking to a waitress they would run up and tell her I was ret*d and if I dated her there would be a good chance we would have ret*d children. They would also tell the boss I was in special education and should not be a fulltime employee because ret*ds could get on social security and probably make more money than working fulltime. At the machine shop there were people who talked down to me like I was an idiot so I had to make them change their views of me. Everyone who I screwed with did something to me to get special attention from me. I never mess with innocent people.

The funniest trick I did was the boss and I cut the sleeves off a torn up work shirt. I put them on two broom sticks then filled the sleeves with newspaper then I capped them off with some work gloves. We waited for a guy that would sit on the toilet and talk all day on his cellphone when he was done crapping. We put the the fake broomstick arms against the frosted glass of the bathroom window. When we ran back into the machine shop we could hear him yelling. He called the boss on his cellphone to send someone out there to chase the pervert away from the window. :lol: :twisted:

Did you ever get caught?

I have some revenge ideas but...I've learned to keep those to myself.

I was never good with revenge because I don't come up with very good ideas. I did some revenge as a kid but they weren't good as yours todesking.

I can agree with this. Harassment at work is not cool. Sometimes it's worth it to get your supervisor involved if it is causing you grief. Work is no fun if you hate going to work because you're being harassed.

One of the first things that need to be determined is whether the bully is simply bullying or is trying to eliminate the competition. A person who is on the job just to collect a paycheck will see someone who takes their job seriously as a threat to his or her paycheck. A sociopath will try to eliminate the competition for advancement. If it is a sociopath that is being dealt with, the best thing is to eliminate the sociopath from the workplace as quickly, ruthlessly, and efficiently as possible without bringing any negative consequences to the victim.

Ignoring the bully is the WORST thing that one can do. They will just intensify their attacks. In the South, saying something like, "Your mama" is always a good reply. If the bully cannot spell or is semi literate (these types seem to like bullying), you can always reply, "And this comes from someone who writes like a first grader?" when you get the "ret*d" comments.

Another tact to take is to document verbal abuse and gossip. Who said it, to whom was it directed, who was present, and the date or time it happened. If in a state where it is legal, have a voice recorder and turn it on (maybe do it discreetly) when a bully approaches. This will allow the victim to cover his or her ass should he or she decide to take legal or administrative action against the bully.

What about the, "Is your mom and dad brother and sister?" comeback? I like the practical joke ideas as well. Those who are bullied need to learn how to carry out revenge tricks and tactics. Todesking has some good ideas. There are many ways to deal with bullies. If the bully is really powerful, a bit of marijuana or other illegal drug can be planted in the bully's things and discretely reported to personnel or even the police. If whatever action you take causes the bully to escalate the situation, then drastic measures may be needed to get the bully fired or put in jail. Whatever your plan is, if it is low down or illegal, keep it to yourself at all costs and never tell ANYONE or brag about the deed or plan.
D O - N O T - G E T - C A U G H T!

I can get pretty ruthless when dealing with bullies. I've been bullied in school and on the job up to my late 20's. I've learned to do what ever is necessary to nip the bullying in the bud. If practical jokes or work sabotage comes into play, surveillance equipment is cheap, small, and discreet. It can also go a long way to determining who is the culprit when it comes to such sabotage. Just remember such surveillance equipment can also be used against a victim retaliating against bullying. A person who appears to be a predator or someone who is likely or capable of revenge will usually be left alone.

I was once targeted by a sociopath who felt I was a threat to his position. That person was in a senior position and almost got me fired from my job. Complaining about the mistreatment would have gotten me fired, so I handled the situation in a different manner. I found out that this person had a drinking problem and frequented a certain bar. When that person left the bar and got into his car, I reported the car as a possible D.U.I. The sociopath was arrested for D.U.I. and ended up getting fired from his position. It was a very low thing to do, but I needed my job, and this person was making my life miserable. This sociopath had already ruined a couple of other peoples' careers as well. I felt bad for the sociopath, but I think I did the right thing. Sociopaths should never be put in a position of power over other people. When in such a position, they cause much human misery. Just think of the situation and where you want it to go.

I did on the expanding foam, his best friend watched me do it along with all our other co-workers they just about pissed thenselves with laughter when I did it. All his tools were stuck in a big sqaure of dried expanding foam. The boss was laughing his balls off when the guy walked by with a big square of expanding foam and tools. All he did to get me back was to put vaseline on my hearing protection which I felt when I picked them up I wiped them off before putting them on. :lol: At the resteraunt I was by myself a lot in the salad prep area. The prep area gave me access to the changing rooms and the break area. When they would get up to use the phone or talk to someone they left their food and drinks alone so it gave me ample time to put whatever I liked in their food or drinks. I probably would have a hard time doing it today because of cellphones but I guess I would have to be a little sneakier. :wink:

I wish I had access to this stuff back then. Its called evacuator it cause people to empty their bowels immediately after drinking it. Its an extreme laxative that works well in hot drinks. :P 8O :lol: If you slip this stuff in an as*hole's coffee without getting caught he will be always known as the guy who crapped his pants at work. You might be known as the quiet guy or the weird guy but atleast you are not the guy who crapped infront everyone. No matter what he says to you all you have to do is offer then some toilet paper or plug your nose and walk away.

Not all the things I do are bad. I sometimes do stuff to be funny.
