'Just don't go': Company plans picnic, expects employees to pay, internet responds to viral image

A frustrated worker shared this flier, inviting workers to a company picnic or, rather, a “lunch meal." All well and good—if it weren't for the fact that the company expected the employees to front the cost. The flier went viral when it was shared to a popular Reddit sub, bringing the employer under fire. Readers encouraged the original poster and their coworkers not to attend and derided the practice. I'll be honest… I kind of like company gatherings. This comes from a guy who doesn't usually…

‘Fine, We’ll Do It Your Way’ : Waitress Maliciously Complies With Know It All Coworker, Resulting in Pandemonium

Coworkers tend to fall between three categories — A. The ‘Know it all’, B. The ‘Think’s they know it all', and C. The 'Don't know nothing's'. This employee was sure he was a part of Exhibit A when actually he fell poorly into category B. Not the practical type, he wanted to make everyone's life a lot more difficult, including the customer's. All for the sake of being right... which he wasn't, at all.

'Her business is doomed': Boss is dumbfounded when worker quits to work for themselves following pay cut

When your business is essentially employing people who could be easily contracting for themselves (without the need for your siphoning off their earnings), it's probably best to treat them with a bit of respect. This goes doubly if they're your best performer and highest earner. Sure, by employing them, you're providing them the security they might not otherwise have, but as soon as that security is compromised, they will start questioning their situation. Sometimes reducing wages may be a nece…
