Few rules in life are as stead-fast as “Never wear white to a wedding.” You shouldn't wear any colors that might be mistaken for white either; creme, off-white, or eggshell, especially on a dress, will get you on the wrong side of the couple's family for eternity. Even if you manage to smooth things over with the couple themselves and maintain contact, you'll still be forever known as “that one friend who wore white." Now, if you shouldn't wear white to a wedding, you certainly shouldn't wear a…

This might be the coolest boss ever , and he happens to work at the same place as possibly the least cool secretary ever. One woman shared her story of petty revenge on the company she previously worked for, and it's such a satisfying tale. As she tells it, staff and higher-ups at her company had separate entrances to park and get into the building. The OP was told to hold a customer who was staying at the office for the day, and the OP's boss said she could park in the fancy car park. That was…

it's time for your weekly dose of revenge stories from ordinary folks who have had enough!

One restaurant owner won't stand for customers who treat his staff poorly, and we wish the world had more leaders like him. U/aaanon5402 had a great story to share with r/TalesFromYourServer. The event happened on their first day of work at a pizza place . It happened to be a busy day, but the OP was handling it well until one cranky couple came in to ruin their shift. The manager's response is perfect here — he manages to protect his server, gaining their respect, and saying good riddance to b…

What a time to be alive, are we right? We get to work from home and then when we get fired at home, we have to send back the things the job had sent us to use for work. Is it worse to get fired while working from home since it's not in person? That's an entirely different discussion. In the mean time, we have people finding creative ways to stick-it to their toxic bosses even though they don't see them face-to-face. For example, one guy told Reddit that when he was laid off from his WFH job the…

We all know that Karens can be audacious, to say the least, but have you ever come across a Karen who tried to take a wheelchair from someone who actually needs one?

Why is it that the people who do the most work never seem to get noticed? This is 1000% the definition of a toxic working environment, and yet there are still tons of managers and bosses out there who wholeheartedly follow that. As if your job is only to make them look good, and if you stop trying to make them look good then you're fired, but if you work harder to make them look good, then you can stay right there exactly where you are with no promotions or raises and definitely no acknowledgem…

Some companies have stupid rules, there's just no way about it. Like Gamestop buying a game back for a miniscule percentage of the price they turn around and sell it for… or being told that “You have to wear pants at Target.”

Imagine having neighbors so bad they they're a part of the reason you move out… that's the reality for this couple, who wasn't going to leave without a little pettiness. Having bad neighbors really can be enough of a reason to want to move out of your place. When you live side-by-side with someone who's noisy or inconsiderate , much like these people, the clatter can interrupt your sleep and make your weekends a nightmare. These neighbors were so incredibly loud that the OP and their fiancee ha…

Malicious compliance can quickly get ugly and lead to you getting fired… if you're not careful. This employee made sure he had a long paper trail to cover his own tracks when the inevitable ‘You’re fired' meeting arrived. He made sure he had someone to point the finger at, and in this case, it was his boss, who didn't hesitate to throw him under the bus when HR got involved. The employee worked at a call center that had a ticketing system they used to escalate cases to different teams. Sometime…

Some people think that their continued manipulative or abusive behavior will go unchecked. Often, they've been getting away with it for so long that why would they have any expectation otherwise? Well, whether it's finally writing an attitude check that's too big to cash or simply pure karmic justice… it catches up with you eventually. This horrible manager finally got her just deserts for her continued harassment and micromanaging of a team member. The team member had joined the company in a l…

Every office has that coworker with the noisy chair.

Cringe-fest

I feel like this is one of those AITA posts where the user probably knows what the judgment will be before they even ask. Still, whether or not they were in the wrong was decided when they chose to use a term like “manspreading” in the title. After that, the conversation was only going to go in one direction. I'm going to go ahead here and say that I don't agree with Reddit's decision. Yes, dear reader, that might surprise you, but I don't think this Original Poster was in the wrong. This state…

This host played stupid games with his guests and won stupid prizes. This person had a pretty strange experience last time they travelled. As they shared to r/Pettyrevenge, the OP travelled out of town for a few days, and brought along their girlfriend and her pet dog . Since the place did permit pets, the OP thought it would be smooth sailing for the three of them. But upon meeting the owner of the Airbnb , there was an immediate issue. The host told them about a $25 dollar fee up front for br…

This story is equally as satisfying for the customer as it is irritable for the store's manager.
