I understand the concept but this is such a stupid idea.

Don’t TELL the fucking person, just do it. Sow discord without letting them on to why there’s discord.

Why the fuck would you give them time to prepare a response? “If you get a message from a former employee, just know that they’re just trying to cause problems.”

It’s way more effective if you don’t celebrate the revenge before it’s happened.

This gets dumber the more I think about it. 

“So they know the money for raises was there all along” isn’t even true. The money is currently there to hire one person at a higher rate, not to give every single employee a raise.

It’s obviously fake, but they couldn’t even think of a situation that wasn’t a massive self-own.
