'I pointedly told her that I AM a millennial and...': Boomer MIL thinks millennials don't want to work, hardworking millennial son-in-law puts her in her place

It is another classic boomer vs millennial dilemma . Here we have a millennial son-in-law having to stand up for his generation (yet again) to his boomer mother-in-law who calls anybody younger than her a millennial, and millennials are lazy folk who don't want to work. This story takes place in an amusement park. A millennial family with the boomer grandparents included, took a spring vacation to an amusement park. The park had just opened for the season, so it wasn't as full of visitors, but…

‘I’m literally throwing up at work': Millennial employee gets accused of faking sickness to get out of work, boss threatens to fire them if they don't finish their shift

Older generations think that millennials and Gen Z have no work ethic. Obviously that's not true across the board, it's just that younger folks aren't inclined to work for jobs with no benefits, living wages, or humanity. One millennial recently got accused of faking being sick at work to get out of his shift, even though he had a fever, chills, and was violently ill in the bathroom.

'My home, my rules': Grown millennial daughter uses malicious compliance to get her boomer mom, a 40+ year smoker, to quit smoking

Sometimes you have to get a little feisty to help someone you love. When the end justifies the means, ya know? This is exactly what one grown millennial daughter did for her boomer mothers. The adult millennial, Reddit user @Ambitious-Writer-825 , posted something to the subreddit r/MaliciousCompliance , but a different type of story than the usual one you see on that thread. Usually you see someone using malicious compliance for exactly what it defines to, complying but only with malicious int…

'I suspect workers are sabotaging equipment just to meet the quota': Bizzare safety procedures at work cause cobra effect, corporate bit by malicious compliance

Malicious compliance is often used when the employees feel like they have no other choice than to obey the ridiculous rules management creates on the different whims they have. And boy does management have whims… they don't always necessarily make a lot of sense. In this case, industrial workers began to literally break safety equipment, and fix it, just to write a safety violation report. A new employee who was not informed of this was absolutely flabbergasted. The same mantra had apparently b…

'Management Uno reversed them': Entire team quits toxic workplace simultaneously, management "rejects" resignations and fires them anyways

In the U.S., each state has their own employment laws to protect both employers and employees. Unfortunately, employers are the ones with all the money, so things tend to fall in their favor over the hardworking employees. Recently, a woman shared her quitting saga on her TikTok. She worked for a non-profit that used business practices that she said “did not align” with her ethically. The work environment became more and more toxic and her and her entire team had had enough. You can see this ha…

20 Wickedly weird memes from the deep depths of the internet

The internet has no shortage of absolute weirdness , and just in case we ever run out, people are constantly creating even weirder things. Let's talk about some of them, starting with the Doritos pop tarts . Would you eat these photoshopped frights? I would have to try a bite, but I would wash it down with the cursed Nutella burger, which seems intense but still edible. Would not eat: the spaghetti backpack. It would be cold by the time you carried it to your destination. Just add a second back…

'I'm not feeling safe in my own apartment': Cheapskate landlord gets fined $10,000 for jerry-rigging electrical instead of replacing a faulty stove after endangered tenant reported it to the fire department

One of the few benefits of being a renter is that you are not responsible for maintaining a property's upkeep. However, that is simultaneously a huge downside if you have a chintzy landlord. If your unskilled landlord is a cheap, do-it-yourself type, you might find yourself constantly smelling methane gas, putting putty over leaks, and watching him paint over holes in the wall.

Have you ever entered a workplace, friend group, or any social group and been warned to watch out for one particular member? It's an unfortunate aspect of our social nature; we always need a group or individual to be “othered” to feel like we're “in." While it's important to keep an eye out for red flags and not make yourself too vulnerable to possible exploitative behavior from these people (if what people say is true), it's just as important to form your own opinions. You might find that this…

AITA: 'I evicted them': Landlord evicts young couple with baby following noise complaints from neighbors, gives them 30 days to move

A landlord took to Reddit, asking their opinion on the fact he evicted new parents, giving them only 30 days to skedaddle. His reasoning was that their new baby made a lot of noise, and the neighbors had begun to complain. Is it insensitive? Yes. Is it illegal? We would think so, but apparently, he doesn't live in the US, and stated that it was actually completely legal for him to do so, as it landed under some sort of ‘noise pollution’ category. Babies are noisy creatures, duh. They cry, babbl…
