The biggest kicker in this ridiculous scenario is that a competent boss who was actually pulling their weight would've said just this, but then nothing would've happened because the competent boss was fulfilling the duties of their job. Unfortunately, this boss was not doing their job. So, after the employee complied the boss was exposed for not doing their job. If they'd never said anything, they would've been a whole lot better off. 

Of all the amazing things our eyes do for us, it's kind of surprising how easily they can be tricked by just a little bit of messing with some light and shadows. Nevertheless, double-take-inducing images of skewed perspective will endure as a quizzical pastime for our beleaguered light-and-movement-sensing optical goo.

When entering a steak eating challenge with your hungry girlfriend, it's good to review your feelings and think about how you'd feel if you lost. On principle, it seems like a good idea to have a general idea of how much steak you can eat. These things happen, like this woman who emasculated her egotistical boyfriend.

The land of Quora is a strange one. Fortunately, a lot of the questions that one will come across while exploring the community are satirical in nature. That doesn't mean that they aren't straight up bizarre. And part of you has got to wonder whether some of these questions were in fact asked in earnest. We sincerely hope not. Check out more insane questions that were asked on Quora over here.

Tumblr kicks around concepts like nobody's business and this looks totally like a show we'd want to watch. And as it turns out, there actually is a hilarious story that's based on a similar concept. For more off-the-wall spinnings of the mind, here are some random funny Tumblr gems to fill those pockets.

Anesthesia lets us do amazing life-saving surgeries on people all the time, but another one of its effects is that it creates some good stories. People say some funny stuff when they'e under anesthesia, and almost none of it makes any sense.

Nepotism is the worst. This manager had the audacity to violate labor law, hire his mistress (a mistress that never showed up), and rarely be in the store himself. Fortunately, the employee that was suffering underneath the weight of all this laziness, nepotism, and toxicity was able to engineer a pro revenge that successfully spotlighted the manager's ongoing choice to not perform the very job that he was being paid to do. Check out some more revenge drama with this shady boss who lied about their coworkers, and got fired.

Human beings can do some absolutely incredible things when it comes to observation, innovation and expressing nuance. At the same time, there will always be those of us who aren't exactly running on all cylinders.  And then sometimes we're just having an off day. These are the producers of facepalm moments of mystifying dumbness.

This quick and enlightening shopping cart theory aims to determine whether or not a person is good or bad. It boils down to whether or not a person decides to make the "right" choice when they are aware that nobody else is looking. Seems fair enough. Sometimes, it's not about that good act of wholesome kindness that you pull off when you know you'll receive recognition and praise. Instead, it can be a more pure reflection of your morality, when you're out there doing the right things without any inflation of your ego. 

Companies that put their employees through the ringer, overworking them while underpaying them, are the worst. It could be a toxic manifestation of higher-ups being so far removed from the inner-workings of the business itself that they have no appreciation for all the hard work that goes into the system, to keep it functioning. Or, maybe it's a willful blind ignorance. Either way, we love nothing more than seeing an employee fight back against a company that wronged them (and other coworkers). This woman's revenge was the definition of professional. 

The entitlement for some customers knows no bounds. This particular quick and relatable Tumblr thread will strike a chord for anyone who has ever muddled through working a customer service job. Some customers operate on this terrible frequency, where they think that just because they're customers, they can treat the hard working employees of the world that are there to help them, like garbage. No, no, no! Check out some more random funny Tumblr gems to fill those pockets, over here.

We love our collections of overheards here. Overheards are a great expression of all the crazy kinds of seemingly nonsensical things that we can overhear while out walking around this wild world. Sometimes, you can hear something and instantaneously recognize that no amount of context is going to provide clarity to that conversation. Peoples say some weird stuff. In this case, we have a quick and hilarious collection of things a wife's medical student husband was caught saying. 

When it comes to entitled and mistaken customers, there can be a lot that gets in the way of everyone getting what they want. In this case, it was the few customers who made nuisance (about a deposit they were told in advance) that got them put directly down a chute of harsh consequences.

We would really like for this to be true, but regardless of whether or not this is a work of pure fiction, it is certainly quite the engaging read. Plus, any situation involving a cheater getting it in the end, is a win in our books. Check out some more juicy content on cheaters losing with this cheater who got left on top of a mountain.
