We don’t know that was why they denied it, this could be shadenfreud (sp?) because they would be denied regardless.

At least I choose to believe that, because I can’t imagine being petty enough to do that.

Right? "Made me cry on a school trip" (for reasons that I'm sure we're totally out of line on the teacher's part and omitted just for brevity's sake)

This type of thing is the nominal purpose of credit scores, I believe. (Whether they're implemented effectively is another story...)

had a teacher traumatize and humiliate me for four years.

I contemplated suicide at 12 years old.

Luckily I found strength in my spite and hatred for her to push forward.

last I heard, her husband died of colon cancer, she lost the farm and her house, and her only son turned out to be gay (they were "Christians").

I still remember her nasty mustache and shitty attitude, and will always remember her.

I'm doing good in my life, better than her.

there's only one other person who I hate more and I'm eagerly waiting to toast to their deaths.

they are literally the only people I could never forgive.

before you pass judgment ask yourself this, "who tells a bullied overweight 12 year old who is clearly having home problems that they need to 'lose some weight' and they won't 'be so fat'. 'who knows, you might not be such a loser like your father.'

Trauma sticks with a person.

I remember all my teacher's names from preschool through high school, is that strange?

Not weird to me. I still remember every single teacher’s name to this day…I started school in 1978.

You don't get to choose. The numbers go into a spreadsheet. An answer comes out.

agreed and affirmed but since we're here, fuck banks

Not a school bully but more of an adult would-be bully/asshole. I saw his resume come across my bpss's desk and I made sure he didnt even get considered for an interview. Feels good man.

They didn't say they rejected it out of revenge.

Maybe the teacher was a shitty mortgage applicant with terrible credit and multiple foreclosures and the fact that they got to reject the application was just the cherry on top.

Depends on the circumstances. One might feel a bit smug when karma strikes back as long as one acts professionally. The teacher might have gotten rejected for absolute objective and normal reasons. Like thousands of people do.

And after handling that professionally the poster can humanely feel smug and happy for a short moment in their otherwise likely stressful adult life. And that's okay.

By profession (emergency medicine with a stint in forensic mental health) I get into contact with some really bad people who have done really nasty things. Will I treat them as professionally as I treat every patient? Yes. But there are moments. Years ago I responded to a patient getting bitten in his ass by a police dog(as in the dog literally did bite a seizable piece of meat out of it)after fleeing a scene of a DUI stop(and punching a young police officer). At the same time as we arrive the detective superintendent arrives(as it is protocol here in these cases when someone gets injured by police directly). He is a fairly nice chap I went to school with - and who was relentlessly bullied by a guy a few grades above us. Like...really really bad...to a level that would land one in prison these days. Well, the world is small and guess who Mr. Dogfood was.

Well. We did our job as professionally as we do it with everyone. But when the patient was handed over in hospital we had a good chuckle, cracked a few bad jokes somewhere no member of the public could hear us,asked each other how the respective wives were doing and went on with our workday. And that's okay.

This is not my post, no. It is incredibly petty!

Yeah, this is no where near enough revenge. She needs to go bigger.

Being a class act is extremely overrated. People should get what they have coming

Maybe the mortgage application was just not within approval guidelines. It is not like a bank clerk gets to arbitrarily decide by personal sympathy.

I suspect the story in the tweet is fake so probably don't need to worry about the wellbeing of this hypothetical teacher.

As someone who was bullied, and who still has flashbacks and triggers from it... Yeah I would try to forgive them, but I'm not going to feel bad about delivering some consequences.

Like I'm glad that you grew as a person but the injured party should decide if the person who inflicted the injury gets a free pass. And either way they're 100% correct.
