"This dealership had an average rating of around 4.5 stars and 400 total reviews. Their current rating? 1.9 stars with nearly 3.5k total reviews."

One shopper is confused and suspicious after an odd encounter with the person who sold them a gift. It seems like ordering online has become such a gamble. Even if you're ordering from a site that is known to be reputable and sell handmade items, you might find you're actually ordering from some random person overseas. Some people will order a blanket or some clothing from another country , only to find that it get stuck at a border somewhere for months. This is especially irritating if you're…

This person was in a frustrating work environment , and they decided to take the internet's advice on how to handle it. Working at a small business has its perks and drawbacks. When you're working for a company with only 15 people, you'll get to know your coworkers and bosses much better than you would at a company with 300 employees. That doesn't necessarily mean you'll enjoy working with them, though, as this person, u/AssignmentFit461, found out first-hand. Since starting their new remote wo…

If a printer goes up in flames, you might want to order a new one, dude. These were the exact thoughts of u/mattthepianoman who posted his funny workplace story to r/talesfromtechsupport. See, a printer had smoke coming out of it, and it was his job as a tech employee to report the issue to an IT contractor. This IT contractor had a few brain cells missing, and instead of doing something about it, he first asked the original poster to take him step by step through the diagnostics. What do diagn…

There's nothing worse than being an employee of a high-end retail store. If you've never experienced it, picture this: Every day you clock in, you are exposed to the scrutiny of every high-horse, ivory tower, wannabe with a superiority complex and despite your desire to dismiss their overinflated opinion with a waive, your commission depends on them.

This person is completely confused after a second-hand sale gone wrong. I'm on this person's side… but commenters agree with the seller. Buying second-hand items is a great way to save money and recycle. These days, it's a great way to get reliable clothing, since clothes from past decades last longer than the current brands of fast fashion. For people who are just getting started in their first apartments, it's a great way to get some nice furniture at a cheap price. And others use it to spruc…

Loyalty isn't a trait that's rewarded on your resume. That's because it's become a corporate science to congratulate the company's workers with hundreds of gold stars and pizza parties, only to scoff when a star employee asks for a bigger slice of the pie.

This employee got stuck working with a supervisor they were particularly not fond of. That happens in life. You can't always work with your work bestie. It makes a huge difference when you have fun coworkers. You both have to be there for an entire six- or eight-hour shift, so you may as well try to make it enjoyable. Some coworkers have a great sense of humor. Others you'll get to know on a deep level and know all of their interesting lore. Having deep conversations while folding shirts togeth…

First impressions are important in the workplace. If you come off as a quirky weirdo on your first day, it's a tough trope to live down, but innocent awkwardness is to be expected. But sometimes coworkers can sense when someone is more than just a little 'quirky'. In fact, for some new hires, it's pretty clear right off the bat that you're never going to get along… fundamentally. Especially if that dicey, new hire acts like a total creep from the moment they first shake your hand.

There is nothing quite like the satisfying feeling that comes with finding a loophole that actually works. Here, we have an online seller who was hoping to achieve a top rated seller status and had already earned over $6000 for his sales. However, he achieved this with just 75 sales, and according to eBay, he needed to earn at least $1,000 but with 100 sales. You would think what this online seller achieved would be more than enough to earn that status. In fact, it's much more impressive, but I…

Manager fumbles the first few days of a rising star's employment

Management at one car dealership messed with the wrong sales team. In trying to save themselves money, these managers soured their whole team's attitudes toward their jobs. If you've ever heard a great salesperson sell something, you know it's a true skill. Some people are just born with the ability to effortlessly talk someone into buying their product. They can make you go from not wanting a fancy car, to taking out your wallet and buying something way pricier than you intended. In the moment…

This doctor was trying to buy a car , but she ran into an infuriating issue at the dealership. Buying a new car is a huge decision. You have to think about everything you'll be doing with your new vehicle, from taking the kids to soccer practice to loading up the truck with groceries and everything in between. Will you be filling your car with friends to go off-roading, or do you mainly just drive to the mall or the library? There are a lot of questions to ask yourself… but “Am I allowed to tes…

Rules that aren't enforced or followed might as well not exist at all, especially when the rules aren't enacted fairly for all parties—and change at a moment's notice to favor the one making them. As they say, all's fair in love and war… and—if you're not willing to play by the rules—don't expect anyone else to either.

We live in a society where hourly employees are punished for working faster than their counterparts, often being rewarded with more work for the same pay. So what compels hardworking employees to go above and beyond? Not much.

Retail is a soul sucking industry that sends even the most level-headed employees into madness. After months, years, or decades in the same sales department, many retail workers grow apathetic; dealing with Karens, bad management, and a looping music playlist can do that to a person. Although, every now and then, a retail store is blessed with an overachiever, a real workaholic...
