This manager is going to have a hard time the day she comes back from her extended vacation. Well, that's what you get for making enemies out of nearly everyone who is working for you. Not long after joining the restaurant, this new hire implemented unfair scheduling policies that mostly benefitted her above all else. It was only a matter of time before the Redditor and her boyfriend, who also worked at the restaurant, discovered a big mistake that could get this new manager fired. Well, one da…

This group of employees wasn't sure how to handle the workplace weirdo … because he doesn't technically work with them. This person wrote in for advice using a throwaway account called u/throwRA-nonSeq. They shared that they work in an office complex with a bunch of different businesses, and there's one dude who's being an utter creep. He's being just annoying enough to really weird out the other employees, especially the women, who he seems to target in particular. But, as is often the case wi…

What is the purpose of homeowner's associations if not to stir up unnecessary trouble? We have seen countless stories where HOAs enforce ridiculous rules and regulations just for the sake of flexing their muscles, yet we have rarely seen a group of neighbors band together in support of one of their own, who successfully got rid of a ridiculous new policy. In this scenario, the HOA in question randomly decided to require that several members of the neighborhood replenish their decks and landscap…

These people are having rough days, and they're sharing it with the world. Let's take a peek into the types of bad days that other people are having, and who knows, maybe the schadenfreude will cheer you up about your own bad day! Next, this group of teenagers banded together to criticize their highly traditional football coach, saying that “ He looked shocked when he saw us walk in. ”

Generosity only goes so far when you're asked to give up your first-class seat on a 10+ hour flight. If you are the type of person who would willingly downgrade your experience despite what you paid for, then you are a greater person than most people are. We are inclined to side with the Redditor in this situation. She had splurged on this flight experience because she had been overworked and exhausted. It was a worthy gift to herself. When a pregnant woman's husband asked if she would give up…

Who hasn't watched the amenities of their workplace—the absolute basics that you might expect to have in the office break room—slowly eroding? First, it starts with the coffee. If you had a machine in the workplace, suddenly that's gone, leaving a French Press. Ok, fair enough, but before long, the actual coffee they were providing is replaced with the cheapest instant coffee available that doesn't even really taste like coffee. Now, they're no longer providing milk, so everyone has to buy thei…

This person is ready to dance the night away with their rival! Things got a bit petty at this folk festival, as u/TheBestOpossum explained in their story of petty revenge . This person was at a German folk festival with their BF when the incident occurred. Although the couple was at a festival, not a dance competition, there was another dude who kept trying to make their dancing into a big deal. He seems to have a loud mouth that he wouldn't stop running. He just kept insulting this person's bo…

The office food thief can count their days, because this person has discovered a genius way to get back at the dude stealing their lunch. This person's coworker Mike has sticky fingers. He's constantly pilfering food from the office refrigerator , but the human resources team has thrown up their hands and said there's nothing they can do to stop him. Eating someone else's food seems really embarrassing to me: it implies that not only can you not remember to bring lunch , or can't afford to eat,…

There is nothing like proving an authority figure wrong! Here, we have a college professor who has probably been tenured for so long that he thinks he can get away with just about anything. That's why this college senior felt compelled to call him out on his nonsense. The senior was in his final semester before graduating and needed to complete this specific course for his major despite knowing that the professor was notoriously unkind and unfair. After the student got sick and had to miss the…

It's impolite to steal people's stuff, and ultimately, they're not really responsible if what you're stealing isn't what you thought you were stealing. Besides, when you're taking things without asking, there isn't really a chance for the person you're stealing from to tell you what it is that you're stealing from them. Having food going missing from the workplace fridge is an all-too-common office frustration, driving some to go to considerable lengths in order to secure their food in the frid…

Many parents have to beg their children to pick up a book, but some have the exact opposite issue: They can't get their kids to stop reading! When you get really into reading as a child , you want to read all the time. Whether you're reading under the table at dinner time, or sneaking a flashlight into your room to read under the covers, you'll find any scrap of time to read. It's addicting to be engrossed in a fascinating mystery or a horror book. It's also a lot better than playing endless vi…

It's hard to be on the receiving end of questionable parenting habits. When your mom or dad is being ridiculous, frustrating, or just all-around crazy, calling them out on their nonsense does not always help the situation get any better. These Redditors understand that conundrum all too well. Some of these frustrating parenting habits can range from universally annoying ticks to uncharacteristically specific quirks and eccentricities. For instance, we've got plenty of folks discussing their par…

These folks have some pretty good reasons that they aren't trusting that random restaurant down the block. Have you ever walked out of a restaurant before even eating? It happens from time to time, but there are plenty of red flags that might give a diner pause before ordering their meal. Up next, read about the reason why one petty teenager was “never asked to babysit again” after getting back at the older cousin who kept having her do way too much cleaning.

For those of you who know, rushing sororities and fraternities is a pressure cooker of an experience. It's also not one of those challenging processes in life that brings out the best in people. As someone who never acquiesced and succumbed to the Greek Life experience but observed many peers go through it, I can say with confidence that rushing can feel as high stakes as applying to college. So why would someone willingly put themselves in that situation? Well, socialization and social hierarc…
