'I left a bad review': Company threatens to sue former employee, blasts their 'work ethic'

'I left a bad review': Company threatens to sue former employee, blasts their 'work ethic'

This person probably never imagined that a company would take their bad review so seriously. As a company, you rely heavily on your star rating . Lots of places maintain five stars, or sometimes four, but once your business has three stars or less, lots of people will avoid it just based off of that. After all, if enough people have had a negative experience at your restaurant or store, why would a customer bother going in there? Instead, they'd rather go to a place brimming with five star revi…

'Be advised': Male Karen leaves 1-star review because he's angry about free soda

There are a lot of reasons to be angry in this world… and free soda is not one of them. Still, name a thing that exists, and there is someone out there who is absolutely fuming about it, plotting how they can end it once and for all. Meet Larry. Larry hates free things, especially things that bubble and fizz and don't cost him anything. If you had asked Larry what the biggest problem in the world was, he'd probably answer that it was people enjoying themselves while they wait for him. His answe…

'Don't take reviews as payment': Neighbor offers next-to-nothing in exchange for an unpaid laborer to reroof his entire home, making Nextdoor users question everything

Nextdoor is a place where Karens and Kevins can be truly free. Since it's essentially a zip-code mitigated version of Twitter, most users are only here for a handful of reasons: their pet is missing, informal noise complaints, unofficial vigilante work, and the occasional good ol' fashioned neighborly grift. If you're not scamming your neighbors on Nextdoor, can you even call yourself a real grifter?

'I was immediately accosted by an employee': Guy tries to sell his personal items at a shop, gets banned, leaves 1-star review

The problem with giving everyone a platform to voice their opinions is that not everybody is going to have good ones. You're always going to end up with people whose internal bias prevents them from looking at something objectively. Heck, all of us have that going on to an extent—it's just a part of being human. We're all the unreliable narrators of our of own experience and so our account of our experiences should be taken with a grain of salt. Take this guy, for example. For some reason, he t…

'Does not even turn on': Confused buyer leaves 1-star review for a fake phone because it doesn't work

If you buy something that's specific purpose is to look like something else but not actually work, you shouldn't be surprised when it doesn't work. That's literally what it's for. I don't know what you'd actually want to buy one of these for—unless you were a retailer looking for a risk-free display dummy. Maybe as a prop for a film or stage set? Anyways—the point is that leaving this product a 1-star review for not working is mind-boggling. You should be leaving it a 1-star review if you were…

Airbnb host left me an unfair review and it cost them hundreds

'Host left me an unfair review and it cost them hundreds': Guest gets 'blasted' in email from BNB host for bringing a dog to a pet-friendly home

This host played stupid games with his guests and won stupid prizes. This person had a pretty strange experience last time they travelled. As they shared to r/Pettyrevenge, the OP travelled out of town for a few days, and brought along their girlfriend and her pet dog . Since the place did permit pets, the OP thought it would be smooth sailing for the three of them. But upon meeting the owner of the Airbnb , there was an immediate issue. The host told them about a $25 dollar fee up front for br…

'Are you kidding me!!!': Owner sets the record straight when Karen leaves 1-star review because a tornado delayed her delivery

Being a delivery driver isn't an easy job. Sure, you might get to cruise around in your car while listening to your favorite tunes, but that's where the fun stops. The other (significant) part of the job involves going onto a stranger's property. A stranger who was, for some reason, incapable of making or retrieving their own food—with this reason usually being varying levels of intoxication or antisocial nature. This exchange usually occurs at night, in the dark, leading to already heightened…

'Check our hours on Google next time': Karen leaves 1-star review when she tries to order food after close, gets roasted by owner's scathing response

There is no greater horror when working in service and retail than having a customer come bursting through the doors moments before closing—sometimes, as you're literally turning the key to lock them. Some people have no chill and not a lick of common sense; they really don't understand that these workers want nothing more than to go home the moment their shift is done—with every right to feel that way. This post was shared to Reddit's r/quityourbulls**t community by Reddit user u/NarutoCell, w…

Karen leaves business 1-star review because someone was rude to her child adjacent to it

Imagine you're a business owner who has just opened up their doors. You operate out of a storefront in a small neighborhood center that provides outdoor maintenance and cleaning. Along comes a Karen with her flock of children; they're out of control, making a fuss and a scene. The maintenance guy is out front cleaning the sidewalk. They're repeatedly getting in the maintenance guy's way, pestering him with all types of questions, and he quickly has just about had enough. He lets it fly at Karen…

'You were trying to flee the place without paying': Karen leaves a 1-star review after trying to dine and dash, owner responds

Well, if it isn't the consequences of my own actions. Let's face it; some people really struggle to take accountability for their own behavior, to the point that they're reading to get dirty, messy—even feral—as long as it keeps them from having to face the truth that they're a Karen. When this Karen took it upon themself to leave a 1-star review for their dining experience, it didn't take long before the owner responded to put them in their place.

I'm all for adaptive experiences for people with disabilities… but when your only disability is that you're an absolute moron, it's kind of hard to accommodate you. Enter: This guy. The guy who didn't know that he'd need to know how to swim in order to partake in a snorkeling tour. The most hilarious part of this entire thing is that he specifically addresses the fact that he was annoyed the guide wouldn't “aid” him—what did he think the guide was going to do?
