People Share Their Most Dynamic Stories Of Revenge
My intention was to tempt him to steal the gas and report him later. Unfortunately, I should have foreseen that nobody puts cheap gas in a Maserati, but I was a younger, dumber OP back then.
On to Plan B.
I knew that there was an old road in the base that none of the more experienced drivers take, due to its abrupt change in grade. Many fenders have gouged deep marks in the road, so it was almost exclusively for trucks and SUVs.
Jack hasn’t been here long enough to have to use that road, so I grabbed my truck and repaired that section of road, hiding all the gouges.
The next day, I parked my truck across his preferred road, claiming I had to do maintenance.
(There was like only a 2-inch pothole to repair, but whatever.) I redirected him to the alternative road and ‘kindly’ (read: sarcastically) told him that it’s good he drives slow since he was a new driver. That angered him immediately, with him revving the engine and charging down the detour road.
Soon after, a satisfying bang was heard.
I did my repairs leisurely, logged everything, and headed back to the office to watch the show.
Jack was in the maintenance room, holding back tears, begging the senior technicians to fix the car as he admitted to borrowing it from a friend who went on holiday.
I swore this unexpected revelation gave me the biggest smile. The car was still driveable, although the hood, bumper, and body kit were damaged. The senior techs did all they could, but concluded that they simply didn’t have the parts to fix a Maserati – Jack was going to have to take it to a workshop, by which they gave him a number of contacts to third-party workshops who could repair it with cheap parts for below USD 8,000 before his friend gets back and finds out.
