got punched in the face for playing keep-away with a school lunch cookie (I was being really annoying about it)

Running around at my friend's house, I tripped and slit my leg open on a small rock. I looked down and instead of blood, I saw white. Then the blood poured out. Somehow managed to avoid stitches.

My friend's dad dug up the rock later and it turned out it was a boulder.

When my kids were really young, they would take baths together. One time I was walking by the open door and heard the older one yell "Don't pee on me, I'm your sister!" The younger one just laughed.

Revenge came a few days later.

Talking to the big boss about my job performance and was told that I was a "jack of all trades, master of none."

Interviewed with him for a new position a month later and the guy I trained was given the job instead. The big boss told me he needed someone with wider experience and that I was too specialized. Later I found out my direct supervisor just told the big boss that I was indispensable and he couldn't afford to lose me.

No wonder the big boss had no fucking clue what I was doing despite me keeping a detailed record of it for him to review (that he never bothered to read). Guy just used his charisma to skirt doing his job and just said whatever bullshit he could pull out of his ass. Other employees who were burned by him still miss that asshole.
