You've got to respect your neighbor's wishes . Many a neighborhood would be more peaceful if everyone could do that! Seems like every neighborhood has at least one person who's the designated weather warrior. In the winter, this person is awake at 5 AM, armed with a bag of salt and a snowblower . During the fall, they'll help you rake and bag your leaves. During the warmer seasons, you'll usually find them outside spreading soil for their plants, or watering their neighbor's vegetable garden wh…

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.

Remember when local kids used to set up their lemonade shops' on the corner with ramshackle tables, styrofoam cups, mom's antique water pitchers, and the biggest tub of lemonade you've ever seen? Although there's much to question about the food safety involved when buying fruit juice from a child with marker all over their fingertips from making their poster-board signage, any adult with a heart feels the gravitational urge to buy a cup.

Keeping a cordial relationship with your neighbors is vital. It's the kind of connection where I scratch your back and you scratch mine. You don't have to be best buddies who hang out 24/7, but at the very least, you should be considerate of them. The story below is an account of a frustrated and petty neighbor. This man is one of the nicest people I've ever heard of, so don't let his current status fool you. I would stop at nothing to have him as a neighbor. It was a wintry, stormy night when…

Some people are just so unagreeable that it makes you wonder who taught them manners. The answer is probably nobody, so that explains why they act like they deserve to have everything handed to them on a golden platter. This neighborhood Karen drove up to one of her neighbors, who we will call OP, and told them off for not setting up Christmas decorations around their house. When OP explained why they weren't decorating that year (a very legitimate reason, by the way, and not that generally it…

Snowy weather is one of the best things in the world for a kid. For their teachers, it's not so much fun. Every town reacts to changes in the weather differently. If your town is accustomed to getting heavy snowfall each winter , the town will be ready with salted roads and snow plows. Other towns almost never get snow, and even an inch or two can stop normal activities in their paths. Then, there's the other extreme. In places like Norway, winters drag on for months, and snowfall is common. Ki…

I can't imagine managing employees and treating them like toys you can ignore whenever you feel like it. It's as if it's okay to one day pretend you don't have any responsibility for them because you are too tired to deal with these commitments. Who puts these people in charge? One truck driver was left literally stranded in the middle of nowhere without gas, all thanks to his boss. The boss in question was supposed to authorize funds for gas and food on the truck driver's journey, but failed t…

This woman thought she had a pretty good plan to use on snowy days . She didn't want to shovel any part of her sidewalk unnecessarily. Even though this woman was paying someone to shovel her walkway, she blocked off a part of the sidewalk with her vehicle. Her thinking was that if her car was covering some sidewalk squares, that's less ground that needs to be shoveled . I mean, she's technically correct… but how does everyone else who has to walk through the neighborhood feel about that? Sure,…

Some bosses don't trust their employees to work remotely, even when it's a necessity. This is especially true if the boss is a micromanager. They can't stand to let their employees have any autonomy over their days. If they let their workers do their jobs remotely, how will they know if their employees are actually working? Sure, they might get all their work done (or even be extra productive!), but if the boss can't make sure they're working exactly eight hours, they won't like the remote-work…

Snow days are a lot of fun when you're a kid, but less so as an adult. As a kid, you may get to skip school and spend all day building snowmen and sledding down snowy hills with your friends. But as an adult, a snowy day means you'll have to shovel out your car and head to work on slippery roads.

Snow season is upon us in the northern States and like they do every season, some residents seem to have forgotten the importance of appropriate snow-gear. Somehow every year, there are procrastinators (who are apparently incapable of checking the weather forecast) that are neglecting to make appropriate arrangements for the upcoming snow days. Karens everywhere are ready to accost their local minimum wage workers, morphing into their final form as the rudest, most entitled customers in town.

This service tech is used to driving to jobs in different neighborhoods, but they weren't prepared for this weather. In any job, if your boss has your back, it makes your life a lot easier. However, many managers think that their employees are always trying to be sneaky or deceitful. They have no trust in their decision-making abilities…even though they presumably hired them for such qualities. This person, u/EmuExternal6244, shared a story from a snowy day on the job. As a lead service tech, t…

Some bosses don't believe in excuses. They have a zero tolerance policy for latenesses or absences, as if they're managing robots, and not human beings. If you've never worked in the food service industry, let me tell you a secret: snow days are often incredibly busy times at restaurants of all kinds. It seems counterintuitive---after all, if the roads are closed and temperatures are in the negatives, who's going to want to go out for a burger? What happens, though, is that people lose power an…

This move was a headache from start two finish for one small moving company. One of the movers shared their story to r/MaliciousCompliance---and it is a perfect example of that! The OP, u/CHAINSMOKERMAGIC, writes that they worked at a tiny moving company, usually tackling one job at a time with their boss Mike. OP writes that the work was demanding, but it was worth it, because most people were truly grateful for the helping hand. Not everyone can move their own belongings, and even if you can,…

This company laid off a bunch of people , and the remaining employees are not thrilled about the downsizing decision. No employee wants to be part of a company that's a sinking ship. If the business you're in starts downsizing and letting people go, it can create a ripple effect. The remaining employees will be walking on eggshells around their bosses, not knowing if they'll be the next to go. And with their coworkers leaving a gap in production, some people are sure to be burdened with additio…

If you do something badly enough, you might not get asked to do it again. This dude was just trying to be a good neighbor — but he could tell when his good deeds were unwanted. Growing up near the Rocky Mountains , this person and their family had to deal with snow a lot. Luckily for the OP, their dad owned a snow blower. Instead of shovelling, which takes ages, they could just take care of the snow without pulling a muscle. Plus, in a snow storm, shovelling can be futile anyway. All your hard…
