I posted this in r/prorevenge and apparently it belongs here.

This was about 2 years ago in college. I had just moved into a house off campus with 3 of my closest friends. There were 2 other college guys already living there.

All of these guys were doing Air Force ROTC with me (basically you go into the military after you graduate). I really liked all of my roommates and the house. Except for one of the dudes that was already living there. He had a dog that would constant rip up, piss, shit on the carpet and he wouldn't clean it up. Furthermore, he would yell at us for leaving dirty dishes in the sink, etc while he was the one making the VAST majority of the mess.

I had a job working ~30 hrs a week and doing school full time and doing ROTC. I had a job as a server so I would make quite a lot of tips (~300$ a week). I would leave the cash in my room boxed up because I trusted everyone in the house. We were all going to join the military and integrity is a big thing.

So I go to deposit my tips in the bank after not going for about a month and I'm shocked when my cash deposit is only about $200 when I knew it had to be at least 1200. I knew someone was stealing my tips then, It then made sense because my deposits had seemed a little low for a while. I was furious because I was barely scraping by working my ass off trying to pay for college.

So I buy a security camera for my room and hide it. I get all the documents from my work regarding the tips I've made over the past few months. I continue leaving my tips in the box unconcealed as bait. I dont tell any of my roommates this.

Sure enough, I leave for a trip and I get a notification on my phone. I watch as this mofo that I trusted steals about $300 in cash from me (taking only $20 bills so i wouldn't notice).

Well, the next day back from the trip I schedule a meeting with our ROTC commander. I bring him all the evidence and video footage and tell him about my awful experiences with him in my house, with my other roommates as witnesses.

Long story shorter, he got kicked out of ROTC and ruined his career. He had to pay me back about $1000 (I let him off easy) and had to pay the military back about $9000 (he had been getting paid by them for about a year). In addition, we go to an expensive school and he chose a useless major, so he is stacked high in student debt with no real way out. And finally, he had just quit his job because he thought he could get away with stealing from me and watching tv at home. AND he had just crashed his dream car he been working on for a while because he drives like an idiot.

I still see him every so often on campus and smile at him.

TL;DR Asshole roommates steals my tips, and I ended his whole career (Insert Soulja boy vs Supa Hot Fire meme here)
