I wouldn't say petty, I would say well deserved!
Currently in a petty argument with my old letting agent and landlord.
I will need to update later, on what happens as we both have until the end of June to sign off our deposit out of safe holdings. Theyāre currently wanting to take away my full deposit for redecorating and cleaning costs which is honestly daylight robbery.
Due to them being arsey and asking me to complete the deposit paperwork, Iām waiting until the very last day to complete the paperwork as it then takes a further 8 weeks to process and thatās only if we both accept which I obviously donāt.
It may not be much but if theyāre going to try and charge me for ridiculous things Iām going to make them wait months for the payment. Oops x

Hands down one of the best threads on tattle. I've found my people, you petty bastards 
I took a bite out of a sandwich too!
It was an M&S packaged one and Laura, who was a complete bleep, put a yellow sticky on it saying āLauraās Hands Off!!!!!!ā. There was no history of food going missing from the office fridge.
I took a large bite out of both sarnies and carefully replaced them.
Another cuntyballs I worked with was leaving and the collection envelope landed on my desk. I took a withdrawal rather than depositing and very much enjoyed my free lunch that day!

I had been collecting Christmas gifts for my boyfriends family at the time - nice notebooks and pens for his sister, computer games for his brother, posh chocolates and jewellery for his mum, whiskey for dad etc - and when he not only cheated but then dumped me, he wanted the presents (but he still owed me the cash for them).
I offered to meet him in a car park to hand them over and collect the cash. I was ever so nice and even wrapped all the gifts for him, happily collected my Ā£300+ he owed me.
I got the NASTIEST text on Christmas Day when his family opened up their Poundland notebooks, cheap chocolate and Asdas own whiskey HAHAHAHAHA

Actually made me LOL. I am so inspired and awestruck by this thread.
This is the best!!!!
This has reminded me of another of my ongoing petty things...I didnt realise I was being petty until I was pulled up on it the other day
We have a stand in boss at the moment whilst real boss is off sick, my name is quite long and can be shortened various ways, i have a preferred name and the new boss keeps calling me by another variation of my name and I ignore her every time as its not my name. I feel like that songthat's not my name lol
I also have quite a long name, with many abbreviations. My work email is the abbreviation that I use, but Iām still on a couple of systems as my full name. Everyone knows me as abbreviation.
Really irritates me when someone misspells my name or emails me calling me my non-abbreviated name. I give them one reply to get it right, and then Iāll do little things like make my name slightly bolder in my signature, or if they continue to get it wrong, Iāll call them a completely different name to their actual name

I had an office job a couple of years ago and there was one lady there who I couldnāt stand. She was thick as pig tit - constantly saying ignorant and offensive things but everyone let her off because sheād been there forever and āshe didnāt mean anything bad by thatā. Stuff like saying a black guy in the office spoke really good English āyouād never know heās not from hereā - he was as British as she was, she just couldnāt compute in her head that someone could be black and also born in the UK. Just a real bleeping idiot.
Anyway, she called me Gemma every single time she saw me because thatās what the girl before me was called and she couldnāt be bothered to learn a new name. I initially put up with it cause I was the new person and didnāt want to cause a fuss, but one day I just had a āduck itā moment. Decided to completely ignore her until she said the right name. She used to come up to my desk and go āGemma can you do this? Gemma...Gemma can you hear me? Helloooooo Gemma!!!ā And id just act like she was completely invisible. She could never remember my name so it always went on until someone on a nearby desk got sick of her and corrected her, and she was eventually forced to call me by my real name. Then Iād answer her straight away and be really sickly sweet and helpful.
The entire time I was in that job, she could never get it into her head what my actual name was so this act went on for moooonths. Sheād stand there getting so riled up and I just acted like I thought she was talking to someone else. Sometimes it went on for a good ten minutes or so because everyone else around was on a call and wasnāt free to tell her my name. (Note, I have a pretty common name, it would not have been difficult for her to learn it, I even had a bleeping name badge)
This came up on Qi recently, apparently it is a 50/50 split and most people donāt realise there is an alternative to what they knowI canāt imagine putting your arm in the bowl to wipe sitting
She sounds like my mother. "He's black, but his English is very good". That would be because he was born and brought up here
I donāt know if this is petty or just lazy.. at work thereās a mix of sugar/non sugar hot drinkers and as a non sugar taker, I have stopped spooning out the sugar. We keep the sugar in a caddy with the tea and coffee, but because itās near the kettle it gets a bit lumpy, so Iāve started just dropping a lump or two into the drinks. It saves rinsing the sugar spoon and contaminating the non sugar drinks . And yes theyāre all different sizes but no-one has complained yet.
. And yes theyāre all different sizes but no-one has complained yet.I did similar on a lawn but it was bleep in domestos. Worked a treat. In my defence he was one though. I saw it as my duty to warn other women that he took home.Someone I know, after being cheated on then dumped, wrote ābastardā on her exās lawn in weed killer. She also kept a key to his house and when she knew he would be away for a few days let herself in, changed the fuse in the plug on his freezer for an old broken fuse and left the contents to defrost. It was so satisfying
Our neighbours keep having packages delivered but are never in to collect them. The packages always get brought round to our house. Iāll have their parcel sitting by my door for days before they bother to come and get it from us! Weāve stopped answering the door to the delivery guy when he tries to give us their parcel now.
I kid you not - they ordered a full size mirror once and we had it propped up in our hallway for 3 days

This happens to me all the time too! They never come and get them so at first I'd go and knock when I knew they were home but soon got fed up.Our neighbours keep having packages delivered but are never in to collect them.

Now I either accept them and just leave them sat there until they can be bothered to knock themselves or I immediately leave it outside their front door
Old neighbours of mine gave instructions to leave parcels with me while I was on maternity leave, without asking me first. They were morons anyway and we didnāt get on, so I turned the parcels away.
I used my exās toothbrush to give the inside and underside of the toilet a really good scrub, Iād moved out a month before so it was a bit grubby. Rinsed the poo particles off with cold water, didnāt want to deprive him of any germs. Then proceeded to pull a button or 2 off his fancy work shirts in the laundry basket and snipped a few small holes in the armpits of said shirts. Just so they wouldnāt be noticed straight away. Heās lucky thatās all I resorted to considering he was a lying, cheating scumbag
I have one of these rip off flammable cladding flats. I pay a fortune in management and maintenance fees to live in a hovel I canāt sell. I consistently pay 1p less than I should so they are constantly threatening to take me to court. Just so they waste paper
