Well, that taught 'em
Sammi Evil Nice writes "I shared with two students, and it was always the same; whenever it was near to paytime, my milk *and only this* would disappear.
One of them, John, was a lovely bloke but allergic to nuts. John makes tea. Soon after, John starts swelling up.
ME: Runs, administers epi-pen. "You're going into anaphalactic shock."
HIM: "How do you know?"
ME: "I put almond oil in my milk."
What have you done to teach somebody a lesson?

That taught him
For extra cash, I worked at a crap minimum-wage job for awhile. The owner was a complete bastard, and would regularly short-pay his poor student workforce. Because most of them were poor, young students, they didn't really understand that they had recourse.
He underpaid me one week. Fortunately, I was not a poor, naive student.
I sued him. And won. The original cost of the hours he didn't pay me? Somewhere in the neighborhood of $70. The cost to pay me the court fees, lawyer fees, and civil penalties? Over 25 times that.
That taught him.
And I got a nice, shiny new laptop.
