When a Student Complains About a Quiz, This Teacher’s Petty Revenge is Chef’s Kiss

Teaching: The Only Profession Where You Can Assign Homework as Revenge
If you’ve ever wondered what a day in the life of a high school teacher is really like, imagine wrangling 200+ students, juggling 8 different classes, and trying to remember who owes you an essay—while your brain is running a dozen tabs at once. Sprinkle in some ADHD, and it’s a wonder anything gets done at all.

But for one dedicated English teacher in a non-Anglophone country, the real challenge isn’t just lesson plans or grading. It’s dealing with students who—let’s just say—don’t always bring their A-game in the manners department. And when a student decided to air his grievances about a quiz in the least polite way possible, this teacher’s response was a masterclass in petty, yet professional, revenge.

“It Should’ve Happened to Your Mother!”: The Wild Art of Complaining at the Hotel Front Desk

Picture this: It’s 2 AM, the world is asleep, and you’re manning the hotel front desk, eyes locked on the glowing monitor as you balance receipts, reservations, and the ever-present threat of a coffee shortage. Suddenly, the phone rings. A woman’s voice on the other end: “Hi, do you have a room for two tonight?” You check. Fully booked. You break the news gently, ready for the usual follow-up questions. Instead, she hangs up with a polite goodbye.

You barely have time to shut down the computer before—ding!—the phone rings again. This time, it’s a man, asking the exact same thing. Déjà vu? Not quite. It’s her partner, banking on the faintest hope that maybe, just maybe, the answer will be different this time.

If you’ve ever worked the night audit at a hotel, this dance is all too familiar. And if you haven’t, buckle up: you’re about to get a front-row seat to the strange, hilarious, and sometimes exasperating world of the front desk double-call.

That’s exactly what happened to u/Hotelslave93, a brave front desk worker who shared a jaw-dropping story of guest drama on Reddit’s r/TalesFromTheFrontDesk.

Picture this: You’re just finishing up your shift, dreaming about your next day off, when a guest transforms your quiet lobby into a fortress of luggage carts, emotional outbursts, and threats of mayhem.
