There are all kinds of people that go to hotels. And as a front desk manager, you never know the kinds of customers you're gonna have to deal with. From kind and respectful folk to absolute Karen and Kevins , it's really just the luck of the draw. In this story, the hotel employee had to deal with a pair of entitled guests. The middle-aged couple sported sour looks on their faces from the second they walked in, and the employee knew they would be difficult to please. He even went out of his way…

In every industry, you are bound to find annoying people. However, some occupations are way worse at attracting bad apples than others. These folks shared what they believe to be the worst jobs for the worst kinds of people via this r/AskReddit thread, and we have a lot of questions. First, why did so many people mention nurses? This has me worried the next time I go to a hospital. On the other hand, car salesmen and real estate agents did not shock me in the slightest. Raise your hand if you'v…

As long as this person got their instructions in writing , they were happy to break a website. As a developer, you're usually doing the exact opposite. But when pushed too far, this person just shrugged their shoulders and did as they were instructed. Having a nepo-baby as a colleague can cause friction in any workplace. A nepo-baby (also called a nepo-hire) is the boss's relative---someone who is near and dear to your boss, but who isn't really qualified to hold their job. In this case, the CF…

Being best friends with your boss almost never ends well. In this case, this friendship plummeted along with their employment agreement. This finance employee stayed at the company after he was given a raise to match another job opportunity that came his way. After choosing to stay, his boss, who was a close friend of his at the time, ended up denying the employee's annual bonus. This was money the employee had been counting on. Furthermore, this felt like a further act of betrayal because it w…

People are wild, but clever, and they all gather in one place to share their hilarious stories that might just help you out one day… Reddit. But before we dive in, let's discuss why we're here. It often feels like the law is out to get us. Some were born to cater to humanity, while others came about to enforce certain hegemonic behaviors. Now, I'm not a fan of the legal system, but I understand why it exists, and mostly, I agree with what the law states. But there are some weird laws all around…

Serving customers is not always an easy task. However, you don't have to work in customer service to profit from the advantages that come with the position. For example, in the story that follows, the Original Poster (OP) talks about his experience with a demanding client who won't wait his turn to be serviced. OP works as a security guard at a well-known phone company in Dublin City Center. The Original Poster (OP) sets the scene by claiming that most staff members are reluctant to offer their…

“We're talking 4cm [of property]," this neighbor explained, but the guy next door doesn't really care. Neighborhood feuds can be long-lasting affairs. This person knows that all too well, as they explained in two posts to r/pettyrevenge. A lot of their dispute stems from the fact that u/Sospuff's neighbor has an intimidating dog. You can tell these two have a long-standing beef because the neighbor trained his dog to bark at the OP's children! Now, when the kiddos head out to the yard to play,…

Coworkers can be a lot of things: a compatriot, a confidant, a thorn in your side, a shoulder to cry on, a best friend—even a worst enemy. One thing they certainly aren't ever going to be is your boss—not without a promotion at least. And, still, throughout your working career, you'll come up against many a power-hungry colleague who thinks that they have the authority and experience to order you around. Letting you know what's what and making demands of you…. but, as bossy as this person might…

When you're going on hour 22 of an overnight journey and the passenger behind you is continually kicking your seat or blabbering loudly to their neighbor, any traveler's patience will run thin. Red-eye flights are a constant reminder of the challenges of falling asleep in an upright position, but when other travelers are the only reason your ZZZs are affected, tempers are bound to flare.

This woman was really grasping at straws here! She refused to be ignored despite the fact that both parties knew she was in the wrong. First, her neighbor asked her to quiet down during a Halloween party when she and her guests were also crossing their property line. This was a decent and fair request. Then, she got defensive and accused the neighbor of trying to get back at her by messing with her packages. She even went so far as to call this guy's boss to try to get him in trouble. Of course…

Being stuck with a bad neighbor can make your living situation more like a hostage situation. Cornered by the prying eyes and rampant lies of a nosy neighbor, our next hero showcases the best way to deal with a resident Karen: Video evidence.

Nine times out of ten, neighbors who call in noise complaints are usually the problem, but every so often that neighbor is in the right. You can usually tell when you read them recount their story if they are attempting to hide the crazy or if they truly are the voice of reason in the conflict. Here, we have a resident of an apartment building who allowed their new neighbors a grace period to make some noise for the move itself and for their housewarming party. However, as time progressed, it b…

Pick a card, any card… And hope your magician gets the trick right . The trick to nailing any kind of performance is practicing over and over and over again. Practice alone, in front of a crowd, in front of your parents, or in a park. The point is to get very comfortable with your performance. That way, if something goes wrong, it's no big deal! You'll be prepared for whatever happens, and able to quickly get back on track. Talented magicians know that their tricks take years to master. A lot o…

When will the Karens of the world understand that not every event is about them? It's wishful thinking at this point to imagine that sudden self-awareness is even possible, but we live to hope for another day. Thankfully, this performer/educator had enough confidence to confront Karen with facts and receipts after Karen tried to accuse her of being unfair. The Redditor who shared this story visited schools and gave performative lectures about the importance of saving water, using volunteers fro…

After every exhausting week of work, weary employees uncontrollably count their hours and calculate their expected pay. We can't help it. The shining beacon of hope of every working citizen is their bi-weekly paystub, rewarding their hours of indentured servitude to ‘The Man'. But when you get that glimmering check and the total balance comes up short, your ever-wavering shift resilience fades.

Where is the logic in hiring someone for a job and then immediately ridiculing them and making them quit? Even if the manager can magically tell by the first couple of hours on the job that the new hire isn't a good fit, that still is not an excuse to treat them like they are worthless. That is why the manager in this Reddit story completely deserved what was coming for him. A new hire arrived at his job as a salesperson at a car lot, and while on training both the new hire and the manager felt…
