Beancounters Foolishly Refuse to Pay an Employee's $15/Annual Dues, End Up Getting Charged $100 for Required Training As a Result

In some fields, continued education is a requirement. As we all know, knowledge is a powerful thing, so to remain updated and educated in the specificities of your career is to remain at the top of your game in the workplace. With education also being a 'luxurious' expense, this kind of cerebral maintenance isn't something that's prioritized by the beancounters in the backroom.

‘I went back to the station and quit’: Senior firefighter quits after 7 years after being written up by demanding manager

Paid or unpaid, it seems like the best workers always get terminated. I see this a lot in my line of work… People who work hard don't get a return on their endless commitment. Why bother putting in lots of effort if it goes unappreciated? It seems as though managers don't know how to keep their employees happy. This firefighter was volunteering at a local fire station for seven years when he finally had enough of upper management and their ridiculous demands. From asking him to work 28 twelve-h…

'The most satisfying moment of my life': Data-entry worker fires a 'Florida Man' before he can finish his new hire paperwork

This new employee just didn't have what it took to succeed on an oil farm . One oil farm employee worked as a data entry specialist, and encountered this new worker who absolutely refused to take orders from her. Her “orders” were just filling out basic paperwork… but somehow this Florida Man thought that that was emasculating to him. Not to mention that the OP was just 17 years old at the time, which just gave this Florida Man more reason to be angry with her. As people in the comments noted,…

'They stole my boss's wallet on camera': 20+ Employees who got fired as fast as possible

Getting a new coworker at your job is always interesting. Some people you immediately click with, others you don't, but either way, you're going to get to know them as you begin to work together. Unless you're these folks, that is. These employees shared stories of their coworkers who got fired as fast as possible, and in some cases, before they could even get their hiring paperwork filed. That's truly impressive! And it doesn't even seem to be that uncommon. You learn this is especially true f…

'She was trying to steal': Scammy Karen tries to use a fake '99% off' coupon to swindle the cashier, gets pinched by the cops instead

It seems like we're always getting email promos for 10% off or 20% discounts to our favorite retail stores. Very rarely, you see a 40-50% sale and only when a store is going out of business do you catch anything higher than 75% off.

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…

'I ripped those bags out of her hands': Greedy Karen steals all of the food at a company event, leaving nothing for the others and making enemies in the process

Sometimes a company will have little shindigs and events to thank their employees for a job well done. Even though every employee would prefer a raise as a ‘thank you’, we'll take what we can get, even if it's just free food and more time spent with people you see nearly every day of the week.
