Friends do many things, but one thing they don't do is try to make money off of each other.

It's truly remarkable what one typo can do to a friendship or a marriage or a professional relationship.

What is time?

Starting a new job can be as nerve-wracking as it is exciting. So many new doors open before you lead to new opportunities, which can bring a lot of uncertainty with it. Of course, those new doors won't lead anywhere at all if you show up on your third day to find them padlocked shut with a notice on the door… That's what happened to this poor job-seeker, Reddit user yelloworange01, who shared their experience in a post to the popular r/antiwork subreddit, a community that deals with all kinds…

You'd be surprised just how badly one day can go, but you don't have to tell these people – they know firsthand. Who among us hasn't had a cooking mishap ? One person below somehow made their dish explode after cooking a dinner in it, while another ruined an entire kitchen in spectacular fashion. My personal favorite fail here is the baby who walked right into wet concrete, while the baby's parent looks super exasperated. At least that will wash off… unlike the person who tried to take a few ma…

The person with the most mechanical knowledge is usually the person who is running the machine, but this boss didn't seem to think so. What led to this mess was the fact that this same boss refused to do regular maintenance on the (expensive) machine, so it began breaking down, as expected. An employee tentatively approached him, explaining that the company was going to lose a lot of money if they didn't shut it off in order to fix it. This advice fell on deaf ears.

Sometimes managers and business owners manage to convince themselves completely that everyone is out to get them. They're certain that their “lazy” workers are looking for every possible option to screw them over by slacking off on the job. Sure, there might be some workers like that out there. But from what I've seen in the workforce, they're completely outnumbered by those who are going above and beyond. Why jeopardize those workers' morale just so you can control the one bad egg? Why cut off…

I guess in some sense, you have to appreciate this dude's honesty.

Raise your hand if you're anxious, exhausted, cranky, and overwhelmed even though you haven't done anything today!

Sad to admit it, but we're getting older...

Companies often cheap out on buying software, instead opting to download a pirated version for free. If this were to come to light, the fines would be hefty, but a lot of companies get away with it. This one did not. An employee with no prior office experience was hired as a processor for a mortgage company. Her boss was extremely dismissive, as she looked down on her for having no experience. Her pride cost the company $30,000 in fines. What happened was the following: An unknown error popped…

Mistaking another customer for a worker is always a disastrous experience: You're embarrassed that you made a mistake, and they're confronted by the fact that someone thinks they look like a “lowly” retail worker. Depending on how much of a jerk the not-retail-worker customer actually is, they may just brush it off and leave you to stew in your embarrassment. Still, there's also the chance they explosively take offense to the situation. When this happened to this blind customer, who had mistake…

Over a series of texts, this dog owner demanded a dog sitter watch her precious pooch, and she didn't bother to ask nicely. Instead, this entitled mom and dog owner tried every trick in the book to get the dog sitter to take this pup off her hands. Right off the bat, the conversation started with snakiness. The dog mom/Karen defined herself as “a potential and a little upset customer," who was annoyed that the pet sitter didn't answer her fast enough. Despite the pretentious way Karen was talki…

Some folks will lie, cheat, and steal to get a cheaper rate, even if the difference is just $8.

These IT workers wanted their coworker gone after she created a toxic environment. But did they go about it in the right way?

Some bosses should be very careful about what they demand.
