This person couldn't believe their eyes when their job position was suddenly taken over by a volunteer. Not just any volunteer — a nepotism hire, thanks to their boss.
U/fjewioafjksldfhe created a throwaway account to tell r/pettyrevenge seekers about their crafty payback on their former boss. Social media is everywhere, and posting to various accounts in brand voice is a real and important job. Still, as with many types of undervalued jobs, like writers or artists or photographers, some bosses do not take social media management seriously at all. In fact, this boss had such a laissez-faire attitude about it that he decided to save money by letting his niece volunteer to do the job.
It probably would have ended badly even without OP's interference. But still, they had a crafty plan to get back at this boss. Some commenters cheered the OP on, while others warned them against this plan. As the OP wrote, "You get what you pay for." I bet that boss is looking for a new social media manager right now, but it's too late to undo the damage that's already been done.
