When you hit the hornet's nest with a bat...

Yikes

Every apartment/home comes with a unique set of problems, unless you're Bill Gates, of course. Either your boiler keeps breaking down, your roof is leaking, or a pipe burst. Perhaps you don't have any of the above issues, but your neighbors are an absolute pain to deal with. Well, in that case, join the club… See, I've had a neighbor or two who made it their mission to make my life as miserable as possible, so I can definitely relate to OP, who was fed up with his own neighbor's rude antics. Ye…

People often wonder if they should quit, dreaming of greener pastures, or in other words, more money, better work conditions, and nicer coworkers. Also, let's not forget the most important thing of all… a good boss. Quitting your job can be easy, or hard, depending on how much you enjoy it. Once upon a time, I was working as a waitress, and let's just say that it wasn't hard at all to let go of rude customers, not great pay, and long nights cleaning bathrooms. But hey, I had some pretty legitim…

Awkward cringe-fest

That sucks.

Awkward...

Whoever came up with the 40 hour work week should be dragged into the town square and bludgeoned by vegetables by the angry townsfolk.

If you're sleepy right this very moment, we get it. Work is tiring , and yet it's something most people do at least five days a week. The best way to make a work day pass by is having your favorite coworkers or managers around. If they aren't there, who's going to talk about movies or that one place you visited over the weekend or answer your silliest hypothetical questions? Without your work besties, you'd have to like, actually do the job you're paid to do . Boring! Have you ever fallen aslee…

Management often doesn't realize that when you quit, you technically stop working for them. In this case, OP was working for a security company, and one month in, already decided to quit. OP gave his manager two weeks' notice, despite the fact he didn't actually owe them that. Two weeks go by and OP's manager hadn't yet found a replacement. On OP's last day, things changed, and a new trainee showed up, less than eager to be trained. OP did his best to train the new hire, despite running into a…

The intricate workings of dating app algorithms are beyond us, at this point. It seems as though fate has conspired against us in this realm of digital romance. Tinder stands as both a glorious boon and a dreadful curse upon our species. On the one hand, it liberates us from the need to initiate face to face encounters with potential love interests. On the other hand, alas, it retrains us from indulging in the cherished art of approaching others in the real world. Whether one seeks a casual arr…

What is right is wrong, and vice versa… in other words, there is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’, although there will be plenty who will disagree with that bold statement. The thing is, everything in this world is pretty much subjective, and we've invented morals to create some sort of order in society. Consequently, discerning what is truly right and what is wrong becomes an arduous endeavor. However, the rampant prevalence of extreme opinions has fostered the emergence of the dreaded phenomenon known a…

Since you spend so much time at work , you may as well goof off a bit. At least some of the people below feel that way. With a label maker, the possibilities are really endless! Your ability to be passive-aggressive towards that coworker you always roll your eyes at has increased significantly once you hold that label maker in your hand. Other people chose to create signs , which are also hilarious and seem to lead to passive aggression. The signs I'm most curious about are the ones warning of…

With all of this bending-over-backwards, you really could use a rewarding massage instead of a 40+ hour work week.

Tsk, tsk, testing our patience again, are we? Welcome to this week's top mildly infuriating fails. We don't take the word ‘mildly’ lightly, as the fails below aren't the end of the world, but they are a pesky nuisance. Sometimes things don't go as planned, an annoying neighbor butts his nose up in your business, or Karen believes she gave birth to you. Whatever it may be, something is always the matter. Maybe we're entitled, or bored, or expect too much of the universe. Perhaps it is precisely…

With its luxurious amenities, discerning clientele, and high expectations, managing a hotel can be a demanding endeavor, and oftentimes guests have no idea what really goes on behind the scenes. From unforeseen mishaps to logistical nightmares, there is no limit to the things that can go wrong in the realm of hotel management. We're talking maintenance, issues with staff, bigger issues with guests, weather conditions, or technology failures… there is not really a handbook that would cover it al…
