‘You’re fired': Boss leaves high-paying job for new position at company, only to get fired and replaced by outsourced employee

‘Nobody wants to work these days’ and ‘Employees aren’t loyal anymore' are two of the most popular sentences coming out of management's mouths nowadays, as they seem to be under the assumption that something has gone awfully wrong in recent years when it comes to work ethic. They aren't entirely wrong, but they're looking at it the wrong way. Why doesn't anybody want to work anymore? Why have employees finally grown a pair and are no longer feeling obligated to their job the same way they'd fee…

'I quit my old job two weeks ago without notice': Worker quits, costs company over $100k and top client

Often your employer will regard themself to be in a position of power, holding all the proverbial cards in the relationship… and it might take you leaving to convince them otherwise. Only after you’re gone will they realize just how important you were to the business, to the tune of a downturn in production and profitability, falling KPI metrics, and the loss of clients who walked out the door shortly after you did.

'Tell the judge, and let them handle it': Business owner tells employee to do 'whatever it takes' to get out of jury duty

'Tell the judge, and let them handle it': Business owner warns employee to do 'whatever it takes' to get out of jury duty

A business owner just wanted his employee to work their normal hours, but jury duty got in the way. For every American, jury duty is a right of passage. Once you become an adult, there's a high chance you'll get called to do your civic duty to this country. For lots of us, the process never gets further than an initial letter or phone call to confirm we'll do the jury duty. Others have to go in to a court house for a few days waiting to find out if they'll be called, and still more will proceed…

‘I corrected his behavior; he never parked over the lines again’: Resident gets even with neighbor who dents his car in building parking spot and doesn't leave a note

Some buildings have assigned parking spaces for residents, which would solve a lot of issues, or so you'd think. In this case, one resident was unable to park correctly, as he constantly parked over the line, eventually denting OP's car. At first, before the denting occurred, OP was annoyed that his neighbor was constantly parking over the line, leaving OP little room to park. But after finding dents in his car, without a note, OP was livid. His neighbor was not only irresponsible, inconsiderat…

'I took detailed pictures and videos of the apartment when I moved in': Landlord demands extra month's rent on move out, tenant shuts them down

It's unacceptable for landlords, or anyone really, to behave dishonestly in order to extort others from their hard earn cash. Unfortunately, the tenancy and leasing process leaves a lot of grey areas where landlords can do exactly that. Seriously, who thought it was a good idea for there to be a part of the tenancy process where the landlord gets to hold onto a sizable chunk of the tenant’s change and then gets to decide whether or not they want to keep it at the end of the tenancy? That’s like…

'What did I tell you about coming here again?!; You have been banned!': Mousy librarian flips a switch and rebukes a rampaging Karen, telling her off and running her out of the library for good

Bookish kids will always remember the day they got their library card. Perhaps it's because this is the first card you ever authenticate with a signature at the bottom, or perhaps it's because you had unlimited access to all the books in the world and finally had a friendly old lady who was willing to point you towards your next adventure. And everyone knows that friendly librarians are the ultimate pseudo-granny.

'I did exactly as I was told': Employee told "not to think," does their best

Some employers value different traits than you might expect. Usually, when interviewing for a job, you'd make sure to emphasize how you go above and beyond, think critically, and problem-solve—yet, some employers are looking for someone who does exactly what they're told and doesn't ask questions. For most of us, this wouldn't work for us, but there are always going to be those who are happy existing as a thoughtless void—just as long as they can get a paycheck. It's always painful when you acc…

'It was very awkward': Couple ditches double date after other couple shows up extra late

Time is one of your most valuable possessions, but not everyone values it the same amount. Take this couple for example: they're chronically late , and aren't about to improve things any time soon. When a couple shared their experience with a double date gone wrong, it sparked a conversation about what it means to be late to every event. Some people will tell you that it's just how they are. They're always late to everything, despite their best efforts. Lateness also bothers some people more th…

‘We’re short-staffed, so you can't quit': Boss demands new hire stay after coworker quits, then deducts timeclock on lunches, leading to overtime without pay due to being short-staffed

‘We’re short-staffed, so you can't quit': Boss demands new hire work unpaid overtime due to being short-staffed, leading to quiet quitting

New hires are like the runt of the litter; small, without confidence, and in need of some extra assistance. Bosses often underestimate new hires, under the assumption that they should be grateful to have a job, and should want to contribute and 'take one for the team' until they reach emotional burnout. In this case, OP began working in a short-staffed office. The person training OP ended up quitting, which only caused further problems for OP, who was already picking up a lot of slack. Their bo…

'I’m the only female in the group': Boss makes only female engineer organize office lunches, employee stands her ground

As upsetting as this initially sounded, thankfully, this employee ended up standing up for herself. We know that gender bias exists in the workplace. This is obviously not new information and not the first time this conversation has made its way onto the internet. However, clearly there are some folks who still have yet to catch onto the unconscious bias and the unfortunate ways in which this dynamic has become ingrained in workplace socialization and office politics.
