just looking for some ideas, not necessarily going to use them...but, you never know. I'm tired of my *beep* devil boss. worse than him screwing me out of some money is the complete lack of disrespect and rudeness from him. I am quitting in a few months after working here for almost 2 years (the first year was surprisingly great-ha!) and would like to do more damage than just leave him without an english teacher, and in a mad hurry to replace me.
I don't plan on returning to Korea, and I don't care if I have him for a reference because he can barely speak English anyways.
so, any ideas?
creative ways to get revenge on an evil boss??

I've read the second book in the GBS list. But these sort of books are more for entertainment...not sure how practical the ideas would be (or even if they'd be very good ideas/that advisable to try...wouldn't want things to escalate, would you). Sometimes you've just got to move on. And for every nasty employer that one would hope will eventually get their come-uppance, there's always another waiting to emerge and do their utmost to make the world a slightly worse than better place!

The worst thing you can do to people who are not nice is be extra nice back. Find any good point that you can about him and give him encouragement for doing that thing. Write him a letter of reference that lists his good points. Go overboard in finding the positives of the situation - really search for things that you can say that are in his favour, that are good about the situation and the school. You can even make it beautiful on special paper with gold borders and framed.
Report the money situation to the authorities in Korea.

Remember Othello's words about jealousy:
It is the green-eyed monster that doth mock the meat it feeds on.
And so it is with revenge. Vicious revengeful feelings will hurt YOU, not the boss.
Relax: A big deep breath and letting it out with a sigh will instantly make you feel better.
Reality is within you not without. What is real to you is the way you see the world, not the world. You can have peace through forgiveness, or at least attempt that difficult feat. However revenge is GUARANTEED to make you feel worse about yourself and to lower your self-esteem.
Do you really want to descend to his level?
Do you want to be totally unprofessional?
Do you really want to be spiteful and unforgiving?
Do you think that a cheap thrill will not leave you with a lifelong bitter aftertaste of regret?
At the very least, keep your personal pride and behave impeccably!
All the best
