School Teacher
I was a pretty keen computing student during my A-Levels and I had one almightily incompetant teacher, on the plus side though he let me do anything I wanted to. Eventually some of the class complained that he wasn't actually teaching them, so my head of year had a chat with me asking about this. I of course, not wanting to lose out on the good thing I had going(I was by then excused lessons), stood up for him. The next week he tried to ridicule me and another lad who was in the same situation in front of the class.

As a result my friend and I waged a small campain against him until we left. To start with I tried the obvious one; put a trojan on his computer, this required the use of his password. This was achieved by the addition of a second mouse into his computer and cicking back into the username box as he presses tab. A subtle use of sellotape over his yale lock enabled access to his office. From there I proceeded to print off all of the class's UCAS references and place them in locations about the school as well as more conventional trojan nuisances. Problem was being a bit of a monkey he never noticed.

Step 2, the blatent. Requiring a more obvious vengeance my mate determined to cellophane his car and I mean with lots of cellophane. Never being one to be outdone I cordoned of his entire block with black plastic sheeting over every door/window, police tape wrapped around it and biohazard signs on the doors. This had the desired effect but only made us thirsty for more.

A number of attempts followed with mixed success:
1) The room was rearranged to be upside down, mirrored and backwards on numerous occasions.
2) The power would randomly go off in the entire room (easy access to the breaker, tut tut)
3) The doors were removed during a lesson and then returned just before the caretakers arrived(This nearly didn't happen as somebody tried to take revenge on me and nick the screws)
4) The power buttons were moved to the keyboards, each key reading around the room:
"mr*******haslostit"
5)His mobile number, which he had given us, was posted around school.
6)Various computer kit mysteriously stopped working and then components started turning up in the wrong places including the cctv camera installed to stop it, you should always check the cabling of the security system.
7) The locks on his door seemed to change randomly, actually there were two locks in the room, the first on the main door and the second on his office and they were regularly switched over and then replaced by maintainance
8) Tennis balls in his exhaust ( a volvo 440 mk1 glt), various other stuff on his car.
9) Plus a few more I can't remember including the obvious verbal abuse.

As the term drew to a close and we realised that we were running out of time my friend decided to push the boundaries and stalk his daughter, who was "too good for us". I didn't support this but I have to confess to a great deal of mirth, especially when the daughter by all accounts seemed pleased by it.

In return my teacher couldn't extract revenge my normal means, by this time I was more credible in the school than him and he resorted to marking down my coursework (involving a 40,000 word report) which was then moderated up to 100% externally giving everyone more marks and by not giving me the sixth form prize for computing, shock horror :-), my electronics teacher did the same.

He is currently still teaching and my brother is at the school and still working hard to torment him. I am still not entirely sure why, he was great one day and the next day he stepped accross the teacher-pupil relationship line by taking the mick and he was done for.

Ironically the only thing that anyone was actually done for was a muppet who accidentally threw an old monitor down the flight of stars narrowly missing the teacher.
