'Kid is about to lose his computer to eBay': Dad threatens to take son's computer after he runs up massive gaming bill

Owning a credit card is a big responsibility, and it definitely shouldn't fall into the hands of a Roblox-obsessed preteen. One dad found that out the hard way, as he shared with the r/mildlyinfuriating Reddit community. At first, he was just sharing a long receipt of micro transactions that his son had made at the App Store . Spend a dollar here and twenty dollars there and it can really add up fast! The kiddo thought he had a gift card to spend, but once the gift card ran out, he was able to…

Don't mess with this mom, who's on the warpath after her daughter didn't celebrate Mother's Day in the right way.

'Quit my job suddenly via email': Worker quits their job because of a bad boss, boss demands they come in and talk face-to-face

Seldom do you quit a job and ever want to go back. It's surprising how the sudden absence of a paycheck removes all desire to set foot there ever again. This is especially true when you quit because of a bad boss or coworker; you would hope never to see them again if you can manage it. When your boss is verbally abusive, going in for one last “face-to-face” discussion is probably the last thing you should do; the last thing you want to do is give them another chance to get in your face or spin…

'A deal is a deal': Dude shocked to find the guitar he sold for 4k is worth 50k

No one can agree on what this guy should have done after he bought a guitar for less than 10% of it's true value. This is one of those posts from r/AmItheA**hole that make a great read. That's because even after reading this dude's story , plus the update, we still can't decide who was in the wrong in this situation. As the OP, u/fhdksTHROWAWAY wrote, their wife's coworker was selling a guitar. As an avid guitar player for decades, the OP was thrilled, and decided to help this guy out by buying…

‘I was denied a raise, so I called the IRS': Employee finds out boss's unemployed wife makes $60,000, contacts IRS after being denied raise

Employees are constantly being denied raises in salary due to 'tough times', but often companies can very much afford to give employees more money; it's just that they have hidden expenses that they don't necessarily broadcast in the company group chat. Such as 60k salaries to bosses' wives who don't even have a job, let alone work at the company. Yep, in this case, OP took to r/antiwork and expressed his dismay when he found out that one of his boss's wives was receiving a salary of 60k, despi…

'We were now operating on a shoe-string budget so the manager got as much money as they could': Extreme cost saving measure causes costly pricing error

At a certain point, cutting costs to extreme measures will just cost you more in the long run or cause your entire business to fold under its own weight—or both… simultaneously. The short-sighted pursuit of profit is a trap that businesses often fall into—and why not? It's an easy methodology to follow that makes sense and follows logical reasoning: Spend less, earn more. The issue is that you have to spend money to earn money, and not investing in proper resources can cost you more when you ne…

'Wait your turn': Karen accosts ex-employee and demands they help her with her shopping, teacher puts Karen in her place

It's often said that we should seek to better the world by helping those around us, but what if those people needing help are demanding help and being incredibly rude about it? Better to let the world burn if that's how it's going to be. There's no shortage of entitled people who have a 6th sense for the goodwill of others and look to latch onto that goodwill-doer like a leech and absorb all of the goodwill that is to be had. This student was helping a retired teacher from their school when the…

'It's not like this impacted him in any way': Teen loses job after parent schedules non-negotiable vacation time for him

For some reason, this parent thinks that their son's first job isn't important at all. A first job is a big deal, though, and clearly this person's kid thought so too. In a post to r/AmItheA**hole, a parent called u/Educational_Gur_2679 asked if they were really in the wrong for a situation with their kid and his job. Like many teens, this 16-year-old got a part-time lifeguarding gig . And additionally, he's located in Florida, so that's a job that will be available year round. The teen asked f…
