Many stores have cameras to keep an eye on their employees, but this grocery store worker was totally failed by their workplace's surveillance system. Up next, read about these hilarious group chats gone off the rails, like one person who shared, “My vegetarian sister discovered we were all in a separate group chat... called Secret Meat Up.”

It's always challenging to entertain an opportunity from people who once rejected you. Of course, there are plenty of scenarios in which one should not allow one's ego to keep oneself from a legitimately great opportunity, especially if the initial rejection was polite and sensibly delivered. However, that was certainly not the case with this Redditor's unfortunate situation. He had a previously scheduled interview with human resources for a job opportunity that was then abruptly canceled befor…

Scam calls are nothing new, but in recent years, scammers have been getting more creative with their tactics... and creepier. One scam that's been on the rise involves someone pretending to be a family member in trouble, often a child or grandchild, needing urgent financial help. With AI now able to mimic voices, it's become even more unsettling. But for this childless man, who's been receiving the same scam call twice a year for the past seven years, it's less of a scare and more of a chance t…

I'm a dog lover and owner, but the first thing that I'll recognize about dog ownership is that a lot of people are wildly irresponsible with and about their pets. Still, it seems almost impossible to get things exactly right in the modern world of dog training and ownership; everywhere you look, there is conflicting advice and strategies that the people pushing them swear you must follow. Some are based on research and empirical evidence, while others are theoretical and hokey. And, yet, even t…

No one wants to get booted from their job unexpectedly, but these people had some pretty embarrassing reasons for losing their jobs ! Have you ever had one of those friends who will tell you the wildest story you've ever heard, and then expect you to take their side even though they're clearly wrong? A lot of these people are just like that, displaying the most unhinged behaviors at work, and then expecting their bosses and coworkers to side with them. I know those HR PowerPoint sessions about…

"When asked for it, we asked how we could pay it back, and they said just show us a fun time when we come to visit."

Some people play games to have fun, and some people play games to win, and neither group actually enjoys playing with the other. If you have ever played any sort of game with your friends, then you can probably pinpoint which of your friends belongs to which group, which might make you want to tweak your invitation list for the next gaming night you have planned. This was basically what happened in this Reddit story when OP (original poster) decided to uninvite their coworker from their private…

It’s rare to see someone successfully get back at their HOA these days, but as it turns out, miracles can happen and this dude really worked wonders. After he was fined a nonsensical $1500 for taking a plank of wood down the communal elevator despite there being no other mode of transport, he decided that the best way to get even with these guys was to mess up their elevator without any trace of evidence that could get back to him. He did this by planting mini sound emitters that would erupt in…

We thought the titular contests of the “Hunger Games” series were just some SciFi hoopla, yet here is this eerily similar real-world equivalent: competing for the privilege of working so that you can continue to support your own survival. In fact, “Hunger Games” is a fitting name given the fact that the arena for this real-world analog was in a restaurant. Everyone who has ever worked in the service industry or retail knows that customer reviews are a total grab bag, you can do nothing exceptio…

Who will be the next Harry Potter? Such a question was unthinkable to anyone who grew up in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The Harry Potter books, movies, merch, theme parks, and Halloween costumes, just to name a few, are among the highest-grossing media franchises of all time. Anyone from that era would’ve told you: “Harry Potter is Daniel Radcliffe.” Image via @gayrauder In the original film series, the young wizard Harry Potter is played by Daniel Radcliffe. His school friends were Emma Wa…

This wasn't exactly neighborly behavior on both sides of the situation. However, the Redditor ended up doing what he had to in order to make the message to his entitled next-door neighbor clear. That resident allowed their dog to go to the bathroom on the Redditor's lawn every day. The first time, of course, the Redditor excused it. The second time, he thought about bringing it up. By the fifth time, he needed to communicate to the dude next door that this was beyond forgiveness. The best way t…

This grandfather was convinced he had the perfect plan to get a tiny bit more food at one of his favorite restaurants. Some people love to tell you all about their restaurant “life hacks." For example, some people believe that if you ask for double meat at a popular Mexican chain after the server has already added the first scoop of meat, that you'll get more in your bowl. This might actually work, you'll have to try it for yourself and see! Others claim that if you ask for french fries with no…

Sure, kids make mistakes, but some kids know exactly what they're doing. This 16-year-old, Sean , had a habit of playing innocent pranks on his stepfather, which were mostly allowed as long as they were minor and playful. At one point, he splashed cold water on his stepdad while he was sleeping, which only really became a problem when he posted footage of the prank on social media. His stepdad forced Sean to take down the video, and Sean never really got over it. That's when he decided to play…

"They fired me over email, while I was on vacation. I just can’t understand how people can treat someone like that."

It takes a village to raise a child, though some people have taken this too literally apparently and have taken it to mean that they need not raise their child themselves. Or at least that's how it seems with the number of feral children that are allowed to run rampant in public spaces while their parents either sit idly by… or are nowhere to be seen at all. Some parents expect bystanders to raise their children for them, demanding a “teachable moment” from the stranger who dares call into ques…

The group chat tea is piping hot, gather 'round! Group chats are a convenient way to relay a message to a bunch of people at once, without having to sit down and message each person individually. From broadcasting a message to organizing an event, it's really got endless utility. However, you've got to be cautious with what you say in these group chats ! There are a ton of eyes on your messages, so any mistake can be quickly screenshotted and saved for posterity. Some GC mistakes turn into hila…
