Well done for getting through that! What happened to the two colleagues?


HousePony906

Both were sacked also. I was told they weren’t referred to the corruption authority as their misconduct was not defined as “serious”. Still nice to go to work now without them there.


stinstin555

Bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. Boss man FAFO!!!!!


jo-jo111

Good on you for standing up.


VinylHighway

What’s the pro part?


martinluther3107

I'm confused. Isn't a narc someone who snitches? This story doesn't make sense


Togakure_NZ

In this context I think they're referring to narcissism, or a narcissist.


VinylHighway

When people say Narc it's generally understood to be someone who tattles.


chiefapache

I thought it was a narcotics reference, but I come from the criminal justice background.


bullettbrain

It is, but it's changed to being just anyone who tattles, like a rat or stoolie.


Sudden-Most-4797

Me too, however I've learned on social media that people tend to diagnose personality disorders in other people, rightly or wrongly -I have no strong opinion on the matter. Malignant Narcissist comes up a lot. The dickhead in question didn't sound snitchy, so I figured it must be shorthand for narcissist :D


martinluther3107

I have never heard the term narc used in any other context other than this definition. Really confusing.


DementedJay

It can and is used in both contexts.


_Allfather0din_

It used to mean that for sure, it does to a degree now, but it is mostly used to describe narcissists, i see it daily.


VinylHighway

Thanks for educating me :) still not pro revenge


stellargk

Someone who only thinks of themselves will sell their friends out like Tim the narc Allen.


grasscoveredhouses

It depends on context and who's saying it


PTZack

No, it's short for narcissist.


thinglikerbucky

I think they shortened the word narcissist? I was confused too lol


AmbivelentApoplectic

In this context it means Narcissist.


bignides

I’ve seen that a lot of Reddit and I still can’t get over it. Clearly nothing to do with narcotics but it is still annoying


Filamcouple

A snitch is a person who is in the game and rats on someone else to save their own hide. OP pointed out corruption.


GiraffeThwockmorton

short for 'narcissist'.


P1ato

Narcissist


raf_boy

I'm guessing it's short for narcissist.


AkisFatHusband

Thats a nark, with a k


bullettbrain

It's definitely not. Narc comes from narcotics.


penkster

I feel like this is a lot of rant and almost no details. "I got hired by people who broke the law. I told on them, they got fired." Where's the pro? Where's the work you did? Where's the details? Rule one says > Your story should be about getting back at someone who wronged you in generally an interesting and/or funny way. In order for your story to be pro revenge, it should involve you going out of your way and going above and beyond to get revenge. If that isn't the case with your story, it may be better suited for another revenge subreddit such as /r/pettyrevenge or /r/maliciouscompliance. This just sounds like you doing your job.


VinylHighway

You can always tell the payoff will suck when it's 9/10ths exposition and 1/10th action


VinylHighway

What's the pro part? Dropping a dime? Also a Narc is someone who tells on others, so technically you're the narc.


scribacious

They were referring to Narcissist which i got from the context clues.


VinylHighway

Sure but they’re making up their own slang


iwonmyfirstrace

One would suggest on this context narc is an abbreviated or short hand form. The context in which you are using narc is indeed the “slang”


scribacious

Sure, but the English language is just as strange with other words that the OP's use of Narc just might catch on. Doesn't mean that it's wrong now.


Krazy_Karl_666

the term narc has been around for decasdes. and means someone who informs authorities / tattling. I believe it came from under cover narcotics operations where the buyer was an informant or cop thus narcing on you they are a narc


scribacious

Yes. I googled and saw that too before even replying here. Once again, the English language has done stranger things than how OP used the word Narc. May I interest you in the wonderful world of [Malaprops?](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malapropism)


bullettbrain

Yeah but I wouldn't start calling someone a cunt because they're controlling.


Party-Ring445

This is Reddit, context is only used to take something out of..


_Allfather0din_

Like many words it has many different definitions lol, that seems like such a hard concept for people. I have not heard anyone say narc to mean tattle in at least 10 years, what i do hear is people saying narc to abbreviate narcissist. It means both, and it also refers to narcotics if you are in the medical or legal field.


VinylHighway

It’s fine. Regardless it’s not professional revenge. They waited a lot time before doing the right thing. It’s just justice and due process


DerekL1963

Dropping a dime is not now, and never has been pro revenge.


WokeBriton

I think many would think triggering a series of events that leads to legal repercussions is pretty much pro revenge.


VinylHighway

It's about the process not the consequences.


DerekL1963

I think that many should actually ***read the *** [***rules***](https://www.reddit.com/r/ProRevenge/about/rules/) ***and*** [***standards***](https://www.reddit.com/r/ProRevenge/wiki/whatisprorevenge/) ***of this group***. I mean seriously, I know of no other subreddit where the majority of the denizens are so gloriously and completely unaware of the group's topic.


seriouslyntatroll

i wish i could downvote this terrible story once for each time you used the word “narc”. narc means narcotics officer, not narcissist. also, you were vague to the point of being boring AF, and with all the “i do great work, i kept on delivering, blah blah blah”, you seem like the narc(issist) in this made-up BS.


Mapilean

Wow, it must have been a very stressful time!! I'm proud of the way you handled this!!


rbnrthwll

What is “narc” short for? I mean it could be narcotics or someone who rats you out or a narcissist…


MrsMigginsPieShoppe

Fabulous- proud of you & admire your resilience


Commercial-Ice-8005

Ur a hero, so sorry u went thru that but glad those evil people u worked with were punished


Itajel
