Company loyalty isn't really a thing anymore. Our Boomer parents can boast about their pensions and their work ethic, but when a company has nothing to give you after years of service–not even an inflation-covering raise–why would you stick around? Contrary to popular belief, you CAN buy loyalty… especially in the workplace.

This person was surprised that when they tried to order from a person, they were turned away. Instead, they were directed to order from a screen instead , sparking a debate about the practice of replacing cashiers with kiosks. Some coffee shops make you the perfect coffee every single time. Others, like the national chain mentioned in this post, manage to mess up my order of a cold brew with half and half every single time . It's uncanny. Why did they randomly put caramel syrup in my coffee las…

Just because you pay someone rent every month doesn't give them the right to enter your apartment whenever they want… This landlady did exactly that, using her extra key to enter her tenant's apartment and replace the fridge. Her tenant wasn't home, and was actually at work when this happened. The tenant took to r/mildlyinfuriating to express how angry they were after they came home and found all their food out on the counter… Left to spoil. Who raised this woman? I'm sure it's not the first ti…

If someone requests you make their handicapped mother's life easier, then there is no question that you should absolutely do so. Especially if all they ask you to do is park your car somewhere else. Preferably not on their driveway. More preferably not on the road that leads to their house, which would obstruct them from accessing their own vehicle easily. This person uploaded a story to Reddit where they explained how their neighbor was purposely making their life harder. Their handicapped mot…

It's time to talk about audience etiquette, or lack thereof. People's general understanding of how to behave in public gatherings has definitely gotten worse the past few years, especially when it comes to live performances. This particular public disruption happened at the Broadway musical Wicked , the long-running musical prequel to The Wizard of Oz in which the Wicked Witch of the West gets the opportunity to belt her face off for two and a half hours. Obviously, Wicked has become a cultural…

It's easy to shrug off a minor inconvenience, especially if you have a self-deprecating sense of humor. But when it comes to the unforeseen circumstances that can ruin your whole day and maybe even your whole year, even the most patient and mature adult can go crazy. As someone who self-identifies as an impatient individual, I am not sure how I would stay calm and collected through some of these ridiculous debacles. We're talking about household items falling apart, pipes bursting, cars malfunc…

Time to take a break from your screens for a few hours and enjoy the great outdoors . After spending ten hours a day glued to your iPhone screen, it's so refreshing to take a few hours to reconnect with some trees and grass . It can be so relaxing to hike in the sunshine, breathe in fresh air, and listen to the birds sing and the bugs hum. Hiking itself can also be a rewarding activity. Alongside the exercise, many paths lead up to a gorgeous vantage point or waterfall. However, things don't al…

This must be one of the most subtly infuriating revenge stories, and it's truly ingenious. Living with someone inevitably exposes you to their idiosyncrasies, those small habits that can seriously grate on your nerves. It could be the way they tidy up, their pillow arrangement, or the way they always leave their toothbrush out – the seemingly trivial things that still drive you mad. In this father-son dynamic, the father finds himself unable to tolerate the disorderly way his teen leaves everyt…

We've all been there—it's a big friend group dinner. It took weeks to plan and some of these friends you hardly ever see, so you really really want to go. But then the anxiety starts to set in when you start about how that splitting of the check is going to go down. Some friends are in the mindset of “just split everything down the middle!” Even though some people ordered $20 cocktails and prime rib and you just got water and a side salad. Others are all about separate checks, but who will be t…

If you don't like when dogs come to greet you, being a mailman isn't the job for you. Historically, mailmen and dogs have always been nemesis. It's a dog's job to protect their humans from all number of potential threats, like delivery trucks , pizza delivery people, neighbors, children, and people taking walks. To a dog, if you walk by their home, you're automatically going to get barked at for a while. That pup's got to alert everyone in the home that someone's out there! Look! Then, their hu…

One weather type that stood out was the “dust” weather category in New Delhi. It also listed that the heat was at 40 degrees. There are two options: it was either quite cold, or the measurement was in Celsius, and the temperature would've been a roasting 104 degrees Fahrenheit.

These people had a few irritating moments , and they took to the internet to share their misfortunes. From botched milkshakes to busted suitcases, people had a variety of issues to start of the new year . This milkshake of nightmares (#2 below) nearly choked the OP. That's because whoever made the beverage added in all the ingredients, and then blended it together with another cup and a straw still inside! The result is a shredded straw coated with shards of plastic. There's just no reason a cu…

Some people in this world have nothing better to do than spy on their neighbors, gossip about them, and start pointless conflicts with them. Whatever happened to leaving one another alone? Ah, who am I kidding? I love the gossip part, but I would never go so far as to buy a camera to spy on someone or to report them every time they grilled food. That's just creepy and/or annoying. Get a life, people! That being said, there is some satisfaction that comes with reading about these neighbor wars.…

This past year, we've seen some classic mildly infuriating moments in the workplace that serve as a necessary reminder that workplace culture is in desperate need of a makeover. This collection of stories, compiled from the top work-related stories from Reddit's r/mildlyinfuriating subreddit, showcases a variety of ways your boss, manager, or supervisor can intentionally or unintentionally offend you. Some of these stories include scheduling mixups, managers not honoring previously requested da…

What would you do if your neighbor kept using your address for food deliveries? For me, the answer is simple. Once is a total accident. Twice is allowed. If it happens more than three times, you have the right to eat that food yourself, especially if they are fully aware of their mistake at this point. In this scenario, we have a neighbor who lives in the basement of a nearby building and who decided that it was more convenient for him to set his delivery address as that of this Redditor, who s…

Once you see what some CEOs are giving to their employees for the holidays, you'll never feel bad about your own gift-giving skills ever again. These people are out here giving gifts that are not just bad, but insulting to the very people who work so hard to keep their company going. CEOs who hand out M&Ms in lieu of a holiday bonus, you're getting coal in your stocking this year! These people all had a few mildly infuriating moments that happened to them during the holiday season. One person h…
