This restaurant owner has an idealistic way of running their eatery, but online, people are totally divided on the idea. It seems like the topic of tipping is everywhere these days. More and more establishments are incorporating tipping into their business models. From coffee shops to restaurants to food trucks, almost anywhere you get food these days is going to have an iPad screen asking if you'd like to tip 20, 25, or 30 percent on that meal you just bought. Though this can be lucrative for…

It may seem impolite to criticize someone else's parenting choice, but every once in a while, it's necessary… especially if other people are being impacted by said choices. Here, we have a 40-year-old entitled Karen who, along with her two kids, was taking up seven entire seats on the train. This would not necessarily be an issue if it was a quiet, empty subway car. However, in this particular situation, there were more folks who were standing than sitting, including several elderly people who…

Nothing is more satisfying than using the knowledge you worked so hard to gain for something that gives you joy. And you may call us petty, but sometimes that joy comes from revenge on someone who truly deserves it. Working in anything related to computer science is as good as having a superpower, you can use your knowledge to do just about anything. The employee in this Reddit story proved that with just one code line, you can really mess with someone's life, and OP (original poster) gained a…

Parking disputes are always tricky, and there's a lot of grey area when it comes to who is in the right, especially when it comes to public parking, where it becomes a matter of who pulled up to the spot first and was waiting, which results in a lot of he-said-she-said situations when it comes to who deserves the spot. Similarly, a lot of parking disputes arise in neighborhoods when someone is parking a noisy car or for long periods of time right out in front of your house. Sure, the street is…

If you can avoid it, please don't be the customers who show up to an establishment mere seconds before closing time. There are few words that waiters hate to hear more than, “Oh good, we made it just before closing time!” The waitstaff are expecting people to be out of the building by the time the end of their shift rolls around. That way, they can properly close the restaurant: there's a lot of cleaning, restocking, or counting money that has to happen before all of the staffers can head home…

Sounds like a power-hungry money grab.

It might've been anxiety-inducing, but hey—$500 is $500!

Enforcing new work policies on employees out of nowhere and without notice is bound to lead to some pushback. Contrary to the beliefs of bosses of a certain generation, not every fully remote or hybrid employee enjoys their situation because of laziness. Sometimes, it's about commuting. Sometimes, it's about the nature of their work and daily responsibilities. Other times, it's a medical issue, which is consistent with this Redditor's experience. After working remotely at a small company of und…

Many people live by the rule of – 'I rather ask for forgiveness than ask for permission', and while that rule is helpful in some cases, you should be careful about who you try it with and how. For example, if a kid wants to go out with friends and they don't know if their mom will let them, then sure, they can try the forgiveness over permission thing, worst that will happen is maybe they'll be grounded for a few days. But as adults, your actions have a lot more consequences and a lot more risk…

Hanlon's razor is one of my favorite adages for maintaining sanity in this crazy world, and if you've read a few of these posts, you've probably seen it mentioned almost as many times. The philosophical razor states that one should “Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.” This is all well and good and helps one to let go of the atrocious and selfish behaviors they witness from others while out and about in the world: they don't mean to be that way they're jus…

Saying “goodbye and good luck” to a job you can't stand is such an empowering feeling. You know you're on to bigger and better things, while the managers you despise stay behind.

One should not be allowed to have a massive wedding ceremony if one wants to serve one's guests of more than 300 friends and family members a bunch of old, dried fish. This entitled bride and groom attempted to allow the caterers and venue to serve fish that had been sitting outside for upwards of five hours. The caterers rejected this and deemed it to be a food safety issue and a violation of the contract the couple had signed. However, once the wedding reception began, the groom doubled down…

Some people will find any excuse to throw a party . In the office, that can be cause for some eye-rolling! Sure, it's nice to show up to the office to see some free food, or to briefly celebrate a coworker's newest achievement in life. But some offices are constantly throwing parties that no one really asked for, and it can really start eating up the employees' valuable time. It's one thing if there's an HR person or office manager planning things. But it's a whole other story if the employees…

There is a slight difference between micromanaging and spying on your employee's every move. It doesn't matter what the job is, even if it's being the caretaker of your children. There has to be a boundary, especially outside of work hours. Here, we have an entitled Mommy Boss, who was already tracking her kids by placing devices on their backpacks. At least she was upfront about that with her nanny. However, after a few strange instances, the nanny started to suspect that her employer was not…

You can't just learn how to drive and not how to park...

There's one thing worse than not getting someone a gift for their birthday or any other situation where gift-giving is an expected social norm, and that's getting them a “gift” that is actually for yourself and serves your own wants and needs. Doing this surpasses the thoughtlessness of not getting a gift and strays into the territory of showing them that you put thought into it and then settled on something for yourself instead.
