More over, get revenge at work if you a hard worker who is taken advantage of? And I know that being a bully isn't exactly illegal or mentioned as an offense in the employee handbook?

An advice is to see how your boss suffer when he bullies you.
People tend to act out when they don't feel good about themselves. When they do feel good about themselves, they tend to be nice, jolly, kind and happy. So, observe, something is not right in this guy's life, it's not fair what he's doing. But you can be the bigger guy.
In the mean time, find another job and then go gently.

Unless there is some clause in the rules of work where you are employed, there is nothing you can do legally.
Any revenge that he is aware that you did will obviously be punished by him, or reported to the bigger bosses and the next thing you know, you are unemployed.
So that means you would have to take anonymous revenge, like setting him up for a sexual harassment charge.
Google the name "George Hayduke" and you may find some interesting scenarios. Hayduke is an acknowledged expert on the subject of revenge.

Well you have to analyze the behavior and determine if specific actions are against the hand book. What does he do that is bullying? Does he yell and make threats? This can be consider a hostile work environment. Does your boss make insidious passive aggressive comments? There are a number of books about dealing with awful bosses. The main point of most of them I've read is that you need to get the person in question to directly address issues. Ask them to explain what they are saying and what is upsetting them.

One word: Leave. Unless you truly enjoy what you're doing, & with whom you're doing it for, whatever you want to do isn't going to change your boss. I've had some experience with this in the past. I actually started to do more that what was expected of me, while I was looking for a different job. I found a better job, gave my 2 weeks notice & left. On the last day I told a few people the real reason that I was leaving. After I left, my former boss realized what he lost after I quit. Sweet revenge, & I still had a good reference, since I didn't burn any bridges!!

There are lots of things but 1st - line up a better job & you can't do anything that results in physical harm or hurts the innocent .
Get the better job lined up then start calling in sick when he reallyyyyy needs you and give attitude like he is an inferior , waste of time punk . Turn into a super skate and whenever he questions you > stare into the distance and calmly say in a low but audible voice , give him a "whatever" .
Then when you jump to the new job (after using up ALL paid sick or leave time ) , leave him a 2 word note:
BYE LOSER .

Alot of hard workers are taken advantage of so join the crowd. If you cant deal with it then get another job like one that has a good union. That's why the unions were formed so this wouldnt happen to hard working people.

The nice things about jobs is that you can always get another one. If your boss has someone above him go over his head, but you need to carefully choose the words that you use. Keep records of specific incidents and what was said. It is also helpful if more than 1-2 people have complaints.

Look for a better job. A hard worker doesn't deserve to be abused. For enjoyable revenge, put a tack in his chair.

Being mean to the boss will not get you anywhere, but fired! It will not make you happy, or stop his/her inappropriate behavior. I think that the best way to get even is to get a new job. You will be happier and their will lose one of their best employees.
Good luck!

And keep your cool. I used to have a jerk boss and I kept a calendar where I could note the crap he pulled and when I had my annual review, I was able to provide dates of his crap. It made him back off a bit, not totally. I was "laid off" and got a phat severance package, but I'm African American, so even though he didn't discriminate, his bosses were afraid that I'd sue for hostile work environment and paid me off.
Hopefully, it'll work out well for you too. It sucks how power goes straight to someone's head.
