Happy Easter: Worker Sends 1,000 Ducklings to Boss’s Home in Wages Dispute
Metro UK ^ | Saturday 19 Apr 2014

A disgruntled worker hatched an unusual revenge plot against his former boss when he sent more than 1,000 baby ducks to his home.

Builder Chiu Xiang arranged for the 1,130 live ducklings to be dropped in the home of his employer, Hung Bin, in a dispute over wages.

The 60-year-old, who worked for Bin for three years, said he was owed £300 in unpaid wages after quitting his job in China’s Sichuan province last year, according to the Shanghaiist.

‘It was all he deserved,’ he said. ‘I hope the ducks drove him quackers.’

Xiang organised for a contact who runs a poultry business to drop the ducks off, telling him they would be paid for on delivery.

Police were called to the scene after Bin refused to pay for the duck delivery.

‘It was drastic but necessary,’ said Xiang, who has been promised a negotiated settlement with the local labour authorities.

The duckling were taken away again when Xiang eventually agreed to pay delivery costs.

I thought giving someone 1,000 ducks in China was an act of great kindness?

And a lot of duck crap to scrape off his walkway.
