I am in a situation where I can get unlimited phone numbers, but only one at a time - what can I do with these phone numbers to make/save money?

We have this client that comes into our office and she is a MASSIVE CUNT. Doesn’t matter who it is, she is the most entitled, angry, looking to pick a fight piece of shit I’ve ever met. I have her address so I was thinking about it doing one of those mail pranks. Maybe sending her a dildo and telling her to go fuck herself. All anonymously obviously. Does anyone here have tips or a better idea?

We accidently left a fairly expensive electronic device in a vacation rental. We realized it when we got home and texted the owner. They said they would return it and we would need to pay shipping plus a handling fee, to which we readily agreed.

It's been over 30 days and they keep putting us off. The owner says the cleaner has it, and every time I text him, he says he will check with the cleaner. Then nothing for several days. Last week when I contacted him he said "Good news, it's shipping on Monday!". Monday came and went and we got no tracking number, nor even a way to pay the shipping and handling. So it seems like it was just B.S.

At this point I'm more mad about being lied to and blown off than the device itself. Any suggestions?

Here’s a sample:

I'm a GC and finished a pretty decent sized reno for a client. He's been a f'ing nightmare the entire job, tried to steal one of my subcontractors to get work done cheaper directly from the sub, always being cheap asf while wanting me to do his add-on/change orders for free because "I'm already there anyways".

Now with the final invoices, one of which is for all the change orders, he's claiming they didn't agree to some of them and withholding payment at his leisure. I was nice enough to give him an extension because he said he needed to wait for his next month's pay to come in, and now that one invoice is 6 weeks past due. He paid half of it for that he deemed that they approved, but I had verbal confirmation for everything on that invoice from either him or his wife.

For reference the owned moneys are roughly $12K

The job is completely done and they told me how happy they are with everything and how people compliment his bathroom reno. I have saved him thousands of dollars along the way and he knows that.

Taking legal recourse isn't worth it because just filing with small claims will cost me about $20K and I can only recoup 30-40% of that if I win (I spoke to a lawyer about this). Filing a lein on his house only affects him if he tries to remortgage or take a loan out against his house. They just bought the place this year so none of that will be happening soon. The lein only lasts 1 year so it's not really going to do anything.

How can I get this guy back without compromising my company or getting caught? He has a camera on his front door.

EDIT: For the record I live in Western Canada but don't want to be more specific than that. Laws here are different than the US

Edit #2: I have decided to file a lein on fuck faces house and draft a letter of intent with a lawyer. If I have to I will go to small claims court. Thanks for the advice everyone, sometimes unethical is not the way (but if I'm being honest I would absolutely love to have been able to make his life miserable in a torturous, anonymous manner 😈)

I am living in a dorm at a university in California and they are doing construction involving the water supply to our building and it is restricting our access to our dorm.

The university moved all four of us to much nicer dorms for three weeks until they finish construction.

I want to extend our stay in these upgraded dorms for at least the rest of the semester.

I have figured there are two options:

1. Impact the actual construction / repair of the water supply. There is a giant hole in the ground with pipes exposed so there is easy access there. I feel I would need to make it seem as though it was natural disruption as something obviously physically damaged would arise suspicion.

2. Appeal to the school that moving back into our old dorm with finals upcoming will be disruptive to our studies etc. I think if I get all four of us to appeal together it might increase likelihood of success.

Trying to get accommodations to move from a shoebox triple college dorm room into a single dorm room. This is my last resort but how do I convince my doctor I have insomnia so I can get a note. I spoke to Housing and accommodations are the only way to get moved at this point.

As the title says I want to get back at my crappy job but I don't want to be fired. I don't want to ruin the company or anything like that because it's actually a very good job I just want some petty ways to feel better after being screwed over by my boss.

Basically one of my annoying supervisors "C" is on some sort of a power trip... which has apparently been going on for years before I even started at this company according to multiple staff. First I'll explain about my job and what happened so things are a little clearer. I work with kids and my shifts are "on-call" but I have the choice of whether or not to pick it up. I picked up a shift by accident that wouldn't work for me so I texted the "supervisor number" turns out that number is C's and it is there by some mistake, either way I text her to let her know I want to cancel (my first mistake).

I don't get a response for a few days and I need the shift to be canceled ASAP or else they'll be stuck with nobody. I look around some more and eventually find another number for that location (the actual supervisor's number, which I regret not calling first so badly!). I call and cancel and picked up a shift that would work for me. Today C called me and berates me for picking up a shift I couldn't make it to (even after I explained) and says I cant "keep" doing this. I have only cancelled a shift once, and that was when I had food poisoning and was basically pissing my shit out. But, what makes it even worse is the fact that the location is the same location that I had to cancel at before. She makes me cancel the shift that works for me and forces me to go to a location I don't want to go to (this location is notorious amongst other substitutes so I can't help but feel like it's a punishment especially when there are other locations in need of a substitute, including the shift I picked). She then makes some catty remarks about me being a substitute instead of full time because I have full availability and tells me that I NEED to look through the full time jobs and apply, which is the first time I've ever heard anything like that. I'm honestly just looking for ways to feel better through malicious compliance or being petty. Some of my ideas are just to deselect both the locations, miraculously become sick so I can cough, sneeze and blow my nose the entire day (I'm even considering throwing up once or twice somehow), or mess things up quietly.

TLDR: Shitty boss forces me to cancel a shift at my preferred location and puts me in a notoriously hated location. Help me get revenge in little petty ways to at least feel better. I don't want to be fired and I work with kids so those are two restrictions I have for what I can do. Getting sick, throwing up, not doing a good job (but not too obviously) and just deselecting both the locations where I cancelled and where I'm being forced to work at are the best ideas I have so far.

If you’re getting the runaround with your insurance company and don’t feel you’re being listened to, file a complaint with your state’s department of health against the insurance company’s chief medical officer. The CMO is contacted by the BoH and must respond. This is a sure fire way to get attention to your case. Complaints to the licensing board at the board of health are a pain in the butt so the CMO doesn’t want to deal with them and they’re likely to get someone to review your case and help you out. I filed a complaint after my insurance company’s “doctor” denied my weight loss drug. The doctor wouldn’t provide their name or license number for “security reasons” so I filed a complaint again the CMO and it was resolved in a week.

I’m not sure if every school does this, but growing up my school always did 3 days of parent/teacher conferences before Thanksgiving. During which parents could check the lost and found for their kids’ missing jackets, water bottles, folders, whatever. My mom (who was a single parent and broke) used to purposely schedule herself as the LAST conference of that 3-day period, and then help herself to a winter coat that would fit me. She figured since she was last, all the other parents already had the opportunity to look. She got me winter coats this way for about 10 years.

I had a horrible psycho of a boss who made up straight up lies about me and worked with the equally insane HR director to get me fired. Like I went from a several years long clean record to fired in a week. I worked for local government so both these people have work emails and phones and I know where both live. Cars MAY be difficult because we parked in our courthouse parking lot meaning theres lots of cops and cameras around. All ideas are welcome

Yes I know it’s another one about smoking neighbours.

I live in a house, most of the tips were specific to apartments. My new neighbours all smoke. There’s 4 of them plus a baby, and they are out there so constantly that we had to turn our security sensor light off because they were setting it off every half hour in the night. They’re smoking the cheapest, nastiest smelling rollies. I used to work in a prison and it genuinely smells like the same bottom of the barrel tobacco without a filter.

The flow of smoke is constant during the day. My wife has asthma, it’s getting so much worse. We don’t have our windows open, but it’s still getting in 24/7. It’s so bad that I’m starting to cough all day.

They sit in a spot over the fence, about 10m away from our bedroom window. The fence is pretty high, which i’m sure may be useful.

So far we have:
• Asked them to smoke in another spot in the yard (this is apparently not possible for them because their table is this side)
• Asked them to smoke inside (no because their house will smell)
• Re-sealed our windows
• Left a brand new vape in their mailbox, did not ever smell it. Did the same thing with a pack of zyns and it didn’t slow down.
• Started cleaning our aircon filters weekly, or more, because of the smoke accumulating.
• Told the council, they told us they can’t do anything.
• Reported them to the cops when we saw them smoking in their car with the baby, because it’s illegal here. Submitted security cam footage because they pulled into our driveway, cops said it’s too grainy and didn’t press charges.

At this point I do not care if they know it’s us, I am just so sick of their shit. Our neighbour next door to us who doesn’t share a fence with them is also impacted. Please help, how can I make it uncomfortable for them?

I live in a lower middle working class suburb of houses, no apartments. I've been renting a house for two years.

Next door there is a drug dealer's widow with two kids (and a new man). The two kids are currently about 5 and 7. The drug dealer father of the kids was killed about 4 years ago.

The 5 year old screeches constantly all day, every day, until 9pm, playing outside. I'm not sure what the school situation is. In winter it is slightly more bearable because he is inside sometimes. But in summer (now, southern hemisphere), it is relentless.

The 7 year old doesn't seem to make the same volume of noise at all. They are probably playing together but it is only the 5 year old that has the vocal cords of a banshee for 12 hours a day.

How can I get this kid to shut up? The mother definitely has zero interest in teaching him to reign it in.

Before you recommend calling any child services, I am 100% certain that is a complete waste of time. I live in a poorly resourced country and child services is not really a thing, absolutely nothing will happen.

This family also had a fighter breed dog that they had chained up. The other neighbours complained amongst themselves about this poor dog that barked endlessly, but I guess it is not politically correct to complain about a kid in the same way. I never see/hear any dog, just the kid.

I have to go to rehab for 5 days. What can I tell my work supervisor as to why I'm taking these days off? I'm a 42 yo male.

I booked this resort which was non refundable, now i found a cheaper one right next to it for 3rd of the price.

When booking they only did pre-authorization, so no money is on hold, i can't see the transaction but they have my cc details.

I'm thinking of reporting my cc stolen and replace it with new to get out of this booking. what do you think?

Title, unethical for obvious reasons as hitting on people working their shift is seldom ever nice, but this kind, very pretty girl at my local bar has caught my interest. I complimented her halloween nails a couple nights ago, which she appreciated, but I cut it short as my friends and I were splitting the bill. Anything simple to go on with from here?

The title pretty much says it all. My father-in-law currently has custody of my husband's younger brother, and he's using that relationship as leverage to force my husband to maintain contact with him.

There's a lot of complicated legal history behind the situation, but the short version is that challenging his custody isn't a realistic option, and we don't want to do anything that could jeopardize my husband's relationship with his brother.

My husband has specifically asked me not to confront his father directly, and I want to respect that. However, I'm tired of watching his father manipulate him by holding access to his brother over his head.

I'm looking for ways to make this situation a little less comfortable for my father-in-law, or ideally get him to stop using his younger son as a bargaining chip, without creating direct conflict or making things worse for my husband.

Has anyone dealt with something similar? Are there any subtle, legal ways (or otherwise) to push back against this kind of manipulation without risking the relationship we're trying to protect?

Planning to apply for PhD in US universities. But I can't afford 90$ for each application right now.

A list of Graduate School where there is no application fee would be helpful. Or waiver codes provided at the info sessions of the graduate schools, if you have.

Thanks in advance for your help and attention.

All of this is ALLEGEDLY. Few weeks ago a car parked behind mine and scratched the back part of my car (I know it was him because he left his car hitting my car plate without space between the two cars). I left a note in his car to contact me, the only thing I wanted was an apologize, that's all. He called me useless, told me that I can't park and he hung up the phone, so I send the pictures of how he was parked to my insurance. A proficient determined that the fixing would cost 200€. His insurance said that if I want to get my car repaired by them I need to hire a lawyer etc... too much for scratch, honestly.

Here is the thing, he studies in an institution next to my house and he knows where I live because he saw me entering my house (and since that day every morning someone ring the doorbell for 20 seconds mmmm).

I need ideas to ruin his car a little in a way that he can't notice immediately. I don't need something crazy, only a little revenge for his behaviour. I've also have his phone number (but he has mine so it's risky). Any ULPT? Thanks.

EDIT: Thanks so much for your suggestions, I'm in the right place (you are diabolical). These are my favourite ones:

-Deflate the tires: the bb tactic is good but he will notice the sabotage. The ice hack is genius but it's not that cold here to be effective.

-Sticky windshield: this has a lot of potential because in this street there are trees that exude a sticky substance so he will blame the trees for that.

-Putrid liquid into air vents: really juicy but I'm not a monster.

-Ruin the car paint: this could be great but I have to test which chemical is the more effective.

So after thinking the pros and cons this is my plan: I'll wait until January so he will forget our fight. I'll mix water with sugar and I'll spray it all over the windshield. It's hard to clean, attracts bugs and not that suspicious. I'll share the updates with you, comrades.

About 10 years ago there were several apps that enabled you to have a second unlisted web based phone number that you could call and text from. Are there apps that still provide this or do you need to provide ID for every number in Aus?

preferably ones where i don’t have to make a whole account or fill out a whole form

Hi all. I am leaving the profession in January. Long story, one for another day. I’m done.

I want to make sure I get every single benefit out of the job possible before I go (what limited benefits there are). I’m thinking like renewing Blue Light cards, things like that.

Or anything that’s on the more unethical side that anyone can think of?!

Thanks in advance. And good luck all. It’s an extremely tough job.

I’m trying to find a new job but it’s going quite slow due to current economy and i need tips to survive my workplace for a few months. I have toxic management and a blame game type of environment. They love to overload you with work and gaslight you into thinking you need to prioritise better if you speak up about it.

My neighbors’ dogs bark constantly. At times, several dogs. They also operate an illegal kennel service so dogs are frequently changing but there are a minimum of 3 dogs at any given time. One resident dog in particular barks non-stop while locked inside. This one is my least favorite. They are locked in crates indoors when the “people” leave for hours and we get to listen to the symphony of barks through the open windows.

I feel bad for the dogs. Clearly need a better situation. Possibly new owners. Nevertheless I would like to repay the “people”. Maybe record the barking and play it back while they sleep? Although, I already listen to them bark while I sleep so they seem unaffected. Follow them to their place of work and replay the barking? Hire neighborhood kids to ding dong ditch them all hours of the night?

This is the suburbs and our city has laws against these types of disturbances and we’ve reported them multiple times but enforcement is just being mailed a letter telling them to stop. Hasn’t worked so far. Open to suggestions.
