Working in retail makes you develop a thick skin, as you have no choice but to deal with people who have obviously never heard the word ‘no’ in their entire lives, let alone been taught basic manners. Anyone who has worked in customer service of any kind will be sure to tell you that the number of times they've been told, ‘I’ll never shop here again!' would surmount the times it was actually true. In other words, people like to talk, but they don't put their money where their mouth is. One cust…

Being a delivery driver isn't an easy job. Sure, you might get to cruise around in your car while listening to your favorite tunes, but that's where the fun stops. The other (significant) part of the job involves going onto a stranger's property. A stranger who was, for some reason, incapable of making or retrieving their own food—with this reason usually being varying levels of intoxication or antisocial nature. This exchange usually occurs at night, in the dark, leading to already heightened…

Texting is a must in these modern times — it's how basically everyone, from teens to the elderly, communicates with each other. That's probably why it's so funny when there are miscommunications over text. It happens a lot! And these fine folks posted their funniest texts online so that we can all share in the hilarity. One form of trolling that's pretty innocent and silly is people who get messages from wrong numbers and just run with it. They pretend to be the person the text was intended for…

If you've ever heard the tale of the prodigal son, you know that father's love their children no matter how financially irresponsible they are, but in reality, how far does that love go? Now, when you come from a rich family, that love is (unfortunately) quantifiable in the form of crisp dolla dolla bills. For some reason, rich children feel that they're entitled to the entirety of their parent's fortunes and don't ever realize the value.

A Karen and a plane, name a more iconic duo… The frequency that the two can often be found together is regrettable. Having some entitled and insane individual with you when you're locked in a pressurized cylinder hurtling through the sky at nearly 600mph (for several uncomfortable hours) is not an ideal situation to be in. But it must be something about that uncomfortable situation of flying that causes these emotionally infantile people to lose their slightest semblance of sanity. You know Sam…

The determination of this guy is genuinely inspiring.

Funny but sad

The hype around new gaming consoles can be so outrageous that people feel overly entitled to their new device. Whenever there's a new console release , there is a lot of hype. Gamers are psyched to try new games or play old ones on a brand new system. And let's face it, these consoles are not cheap whatsoever, with most of them costing hundreds of dollars. That was also the case with this cranky customer, who just wanted a new gaming console the second it was released. This customer clearly had…

it doesn't matter if you're a recent college grad or if your college years were back in the Pleistocene Era, but you never forget those four years of procrastination.

Even though your cat wants to think they're a fierce and unstoppable predator, sometimes the little guys need to be rescued by their owners (like the fuzzy babies they really are).

We all know that one friend who always manages to "forget" their wallet.

Pretty please?

Mistaking another customer for a worker can be an embarrassing, humbling experience… but not if you're so entitled that you are completely incapable of realizing you've made a mistake. In a thread posted to Reddit's r/IDontWorkHereLady subreddit community by Redditor u/Tactical-Pixie-1864, the original poster shared their tale of being accosted by a wild Karen when they were trying to pick up dinner after a shift. They worked as an EMT and were already at the frayed ends of sanity after their s…

Today's lesson is: get everything in writing. U/Subtosocksfor1 had a great story to share with r/pettycompliance about the time they refused to back down from their boss's demands. The OP's story is especially infuriating because they claim to work for this company and generate a lot of the income. If your employee is really generating 15%-20% of your company's revenue, a raise better be in the works for them! At least this OP seems to know their worth. However, the OP really did make a huge mi…

This HOA got more than they bargained for when they hired a towing company to ensure that cars parked fit the 'aesthetic' of their neighborhood. Correct, you read that right; the HOA president decided that parking was not allowed in front of townhomes because they were at the front of the subdivision, and he felt it was 'unsightly' to see cars parked at the curb when he drove by. So the HOA hired a towing company to make sure that cars that dared do so be towed. What the HOA didn't know (we ass…

The working relationship is built on respect, and that respect should go both ways. Unfortunately, this isn't always the case, with some owners, executives, and managers seeing themselves as destined for greatness and, therefore, better than the rabble they employ. It's surprising and disappointing how prevalent this attitude and behavior is today—probably because it's still being encouraged by the executive-level relics from the 80s and their sycophants who worship their every move. But, contr…
