This is something that one man enjoyed after he realized that the owner of the business he was employed at intended to replace him with his nephew to cut costs. A landscaper at a hotel, the manager told him to train his relative without revealing his ulterior motive.
The employee did as he was told, but the effort that he put in left something to be desired. To his amusement, this came back to bite his former boss.

Work forces me to train my own replacement. So I do, with the same effort they put into hiring him.
