Your best revenge /karma story

[Anonymous]

I was "with" the same girl from when we were 12-21. At 21, she broke up with me because she did not think I would make enough money. (I was a physics major, she wanted me to go into something more practical). She never got married, and spent her career as a school teacher. Me? Well, I am not rich, but am UMC with a seven figure net worth and salary in the mid 200's.

Holy unprofessional... EMT's don't take a hippocratic oath, but you do have your code of conduct to uphold.

Hope the smile on your face wasn't as big as your lack of ethics.

+1. This is disgusting. I hope someone finds this OP’s IP address and reports them.

+1. That medical person may have done that before for small perceived slights from patients. It gave me the creeps reading that.

Probably not -- if I was I would not be so petty to post this.

Girl I dated after college that I was hoping to marry broke up with me and said that if we had gotten married, it would not have worked out. Think she married the next guy she dated. They were married for over 20 years and now divorced.

She’s also unable to have more kids due to severe complications after giving birth to her daughter. We became ex friends when she posted a rant on FB about how she felt robbed of a life imagined with her daughter and how jealous she felt of others with “pretty little girls.” I couldn’t believe the people sticking up for her and telling her it was ok to grieve over having a fat kid.

This poor child. I wish you had hung in there just to provide occasional support to the daughter. It would mean a lot to her to have someone in her corner, or even to hear once that her mom is wrong and it's not the daughter's fault.

20 years is a pretty good run

Clearly, a lot of you do not know what karma is, and need professional help. Anyone else just cringe reading some of these posts?

Nope. Sometimes just writing it down helps you to release it even if it's something another person might judge or cringe at. That's what makes anonymous so appealing. FWIW I haven't posted anything in this thread until now; I just happen to have enough life experience to know that being human is messy and hurtful and sometimes you just need an ear.

I just love reading all these stories!

One of the best threads ever.

You're a sick, terrible person who should not be in the medical field. Please get therapy.

Agreed. You’re scum of the earth PP. Maybe this dirtbag gave you shit because you’re truly an ass.

Maybe pp is an unethical ass because of the relentless bullying?

I've seen it often enough that I no longer worry too much when somebody does me wrong: I know it will come back to them eventually.

I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease last year, and now after reading this thread I'm wondering what I did to deserve it?

You did nothing to deserve it. This entire thread is a little disgusting. When I'm with my Hospice patients and their families, one of the things we talk about is how life can seem so random. And it often feels completely unfair. I would love to invite some of these posters to spend the day with me. I'm spending the afternoon/evening with a six month old patient in our pediatric wing. She will probably die this afternoon. Her parents didn't deserve any of this. She didn't deserve any of it. As a chaplain and more importantly, as a human being, I urge some of you to really think about the pain you seem to delight in.

I'm sorry that you have to deal with this sort of thing daily, that's awful. But you're missing the point of the thread. No-one said that everyone who is suffering deserves it.

Karma is someone cutting you off in traffic and then at the next red light, they proceed through the intersection when the light is green and get t-bones by someone running the red light.

Karma is someone at work taking credit for a project you did and getting a bunch of notice and praise for it and then blowing the next project they're assigned that is exactly the same because they didn't know how to do the work.

Karma is your little brother bragging about getting the last ice cream bar and saying no when you ask if you can have a bite and then promptly dropping the ice cream on the ground.

If you DO something to cause the "karma" on someone else, be prepared for it to bite you back.

There is also good karma, IMO. Back when those Hatchimals were all the rage and sold out everywhere, I managed to snag one on the maker's website. It wasn't the one my niece wanted, but it was still a Hatchimal. A few weeks later I had to make an early morning Target run for work and just happened upon a display of 10 Hatchimals they were stocking, including the one my niece wanted. I grabbed it and listed the other one for sale on a FB yard sale group. Others were listing them for up to $250 and people were paying, but I felt bad doing that, so I listed it for the same price I paid. The person who bought it from me thanked me for not jacking up the price and said good karma was going to come my way. Sure enough, a few weeks later I had a voicemail on my phone from a recruiter. I wasn't looking for a job and didn't have my resume posted anywhere at the time. She got my information from someone working at that company who'd previously worked with me over 5 years prior. They remembered I was excellent at doing the job in question and wanted to reach out to see if I was interested. It was a huge pay increase, better benefits, and much closer to my home. Good karma, indeed!

None of those things have anything to do with karma. Look up the word, learn what it really is.

I was a young marketing guy at a big company and my first boss made my life a living hell. Ten years later I was the division president and I fired him. He didn't fight it because he knew exactly why.
