What's the best example of karma you've ever seen?

[trumptrump]

Yes, I know that karma isn't real, and no, I don't wish bad on anyone. But, it is occasionally nice to see someone get their just desserts.

My favorite:

When I was 18, I worked in a shitty nightclub. Our manager was awful. He used to strut around shouting at us, telling us that we would never amount to anything. He always refused to work the tills, do the cleaning, or anything manual. He said that those jobs were beneath him... he eventually got sacked, and the only job he could find afterwards was being a bar man in a dodgy pub. We took great pleasure in popping in for a drink on our staff nights' out and smiling as he served us. He got exactly what he deserved. This was about ten years ago, and he's still there, last I heard.

My friends exh had affair when she was pregnant. They divorced and he married ow. My friend had to take her children to the wedding venue to be dropped off to exh . Bride was standing at the top of a steep set of old stone stairs outside in full white wedding regalia, and quickly made her was down to greet the children. She tripped and fell down every one of the stairs, landing at my friend's feet. Dress was filthy. Friend helped her to her feet. Wonderful karma

One night we heard an alarm go off closely followed by a car horn beeping repeatedly and lots of shouting, looked out the window to see a car parked on the drive of the house opposite with one guy leaning out of the car door honking the horn and another guy sprinting out of the house with an armful of stuff.

Burglary in progress!

Not sure how they had triggered the alarm as they had managed to get a fucking mattress out of the house (who steals a mattress!?!?) and that was balanced on top of the car already so they had got that out quietly but they had triggered the alarm and were now legging it. Jumped into car and reversed fast into the road without looking. How the car coming down the road missed them I honestly don't know lots of swerving anyway.... car behind that one? Marked police car!

That current viral video of the "woman" being misgendered makes me think of karma... I bet she didn't expect the world to see her tantrum!

Can you post us a link, OP? Great thread !

Many years ago I worked for a small office - just the boss, another girl and me. The boss would go for frequent long lunches with his pals then they would all return to the office and chase other girl and I round conference room table, grab us to sit on their laps, all the while taking the piss out of us with their plummy voices. We soon found new jobs and moved on

Roll forward several years, I started new job for large multinational. On my first day colleagues took me to the staff restaurant and then to the subsidised staff bar. I went to order drinks and one of the posh arseholes from earlier job was the barman. He took one look at me and said 'just don't say a word'. I laughed, gave him my order and said 'don't be stingy with the ice'. It felt so good.

SilverySurfer. That story sounds familiar. Have you mentioned it on MN before ?

Vile woman I worked for recently, she was so smug about the fact our married boss had left his wife for her. She was like the cat that got the cream and treated me with utter disdain. Boss (55) then hired a 25 year old bimbo and ran off her 😂

I may well have Indigo, it made me very happy every time I sent to the bar

went, not sent

When I was 17 I worked for a bully of a boss. He had me doing Profit and Loss accounts without any training and shouted at me when it wasn't right. He uses to scream and shout at all the staff and was regularly violent, once putting his hands round my throat and shaking me.

Found out a few years ago he lost everything, business, wife, kids etc.

**used to not uses!

Some of these are a bit

A passenger on an airplane really drunk and nasty to the flight attendants... realised he’d lost his pp at pp control 😂

Years ago I I stopped speaking to my 'best friend' when a friend of hers tried to rape me whilst she was in the next room having sex with someone else. I was literally screaming for her and she didn't come out but eventually the guy she was sleeping with did to see what was going on and I could hear her shouting out to him just to leave it and come back in. I managed to get out and planned on never speaking to her again until I found out a week later that my boyfriend had been cheating on me with her (as well as another girl who had no idea about me). I cut both of them out my life but a few weeks later my 'friend' called me to tell me that she and my ex boyfriend were now together and in a serious relationship. I asked her what made her think that he wouldn't do to her what he did to me and she told me that what they had was special and that she just wasn't the type of girl that guys cheat on (suggesting that I was). They got married a year later and I've since found out through mutual friends that he has had a number of full blown affairs. Each time she has found out about an affair they have moved to a different part of the country where he has then done it again. They've moved 4 times in the last 12 years.
Not sure if it's karma though or just what naturally happens when two arseholes get together.

I found out my boyfriend was shagging a girl he was working with - in my bed. We split up (obvs) and I found out a year or so later that he had found her sleeping with someone else - in his bed. Can't say I felt a lot of sympathy.

Was recently at a dance competition watching from the side of the stage with my young DD. A very obnoxious older (16+) competitor barged past and stood right in front of DD rudely blocking her view. She shoved her out of the way and we couldn’t believe how ignorant she was but let it go as there was lots of children around. There was no need for this as the older girl wasn’t due on stage for ages and was just watching too.

Later on I was watching the older age competition from the theatre seats and the rude girl in question came on to compete. She promptly attempted a somersault and fell on her head. Not serious thankfully but bloody embarrassing for her.

Sometimes Karma works fast.

A woman I used to know years back, would literally do anything for anyone even if it put her own life at a disadvantage (think offering to sell her home to help a friend who was in financial difficulties)
She was sadly diagnosed with terminal cancer. She carried in being the most upbeat and amazing person through all treatment thrown at her. Amazingly she recovered!
She was told she would never conceive due to treatment, miraculously she conceived two children naturally. I don't know if it qualifies for karma but a rather extraordinary series of events for a truly wonderful woman!

Instant karma - this was not in the UK.

At an airport where there is a parking lay-by immediately outside Departures for disabled people only who have the relevant badge. Disabled driver approaches to find space taken by a non disabled driver who had parked there to collect people from Arrivals, disabled driver held badge up to driver who laughed, sneered and mocked. Unbeknownst to Laughing Boy there was a Police Car just behind the disabled driver who was watching proceedings carefully. Laughing Boy eventually got everyone in the car and drove off still laughing and mocking to be followed and stopped by the Police Car, Policeman got him out of the vehicle, gave him an almighty dressing down, and issued a rather hefty fine - he wasn't laughing anymore.

I don't want to post it as MN keep taking it down for some reason, but if you go on Twitter and search "misgendered", you'll find it instantly.

Properly horrible boss

Proveable maternity discrimination

Properly horrible boss gets caught doing something that's properly naughty

Properly horrible boss gets properly told off. Publicly.

Properly horrible boss's employers (and my ex employers by this time) give me lots of money to stop me bringing a constructive dismissal claim against them. Because they knew and I knew it would be a successful one.

Lots of money meant I have now retrained in a career I always wanted to do but would have never done otherwise.

Best of all: properly horrible boss has been banned from working in the profession for life.

Karma at it's best.
