This IT guy was working for a large firm as a contractor for their IT department. His experience was one that people often have within a giant, bloated corporate behemoth: The managers were unreliable, the expectations were too high, and the company had an odd culture that tried to give you more work, as congratulations for a job well done, rather than pay you fairly. That sounds like something that the owner or CEO thought of one day when they were sitting on the toilet, and all the "Yes Men"…

This job seems to check all the boxes of a toxic work environment.

It seems like there are barely any workplaces with adequately staffed teams of employees at this point. Everyone is wondering, ‘Huh, why don’t we have more workers?' when the answer is simple: People don't get paid enough to deal with rowdy, delinquent customers. Bank accounts all over are sitting on the same number, or recede slowly into negative zeros. People want to be compensated properly, but that obviously ain't happening in this economy. It can be jarring to deal with such negativity on…

These days everyone wants to be an influencer… chasing clout and fake internet points in order to feel that success they were taught to crave—to feel something, anything really. We're a society of individualists who are seeking to distinguish ourselves by proving to the rest of the world that we're better than everyone else and have something unique to offer in a space that's constantly drowning in the noise of every single person trying to do that exact same thing, giving their reaction to eve…

There's never any shortage of theatrics at in this university drama program — especially after this woman called out the woman who was brazenly flirting with her BF.

Sibling rivalry has been and always will be juicy!

Parents, would you ever side with your child's partner over your actual child? One dad was put in that predicament himself, and went to r/AmItheA**hole asking for advice . U/inappropriatedress77 explained that his kid had been dating a woman for about two years, but the relationship was long-distance . Although the family loved when the GF visited, her BF would never fly to see her. He claimed it was because he was scared of flying because he's never done it. As a father, u/inappropriatedress77…

There's nothing more exhausting than a demanding mother-in-law

Some people's claim to fame end when they get promoted, and from then on they simply sit at their desk, playing Candy crush on their phone, overlooking a bunch of other employees, not doing any more actual work. Either they aren't very self-aware when they expect to get glowing references from former coworkers, or they're downright delusional. Either way, if you're not gonna work, don't expect the people you effed over to vouch for you when you begin looking for another job.

It turns out nepo babies even have it easier when it comes to getting that first crappy job that we all have to have, but that doesn't mean you're actually going to be successful in the role. These “first jobs” usually consist of a workplace environment where "doing what you're told" is pretty much your only required skill. So not doing what you're told—because you're an entitled little turd of a human being—generally won't get you very far. That is unless your family has enough money and enoug…

“One of my best friends is getting married soon,” this guy wrote, as he wondered if he was wrong for restricting where she could hold the festivities.

Tim was the type of employee who did the bare minimum and expected a promotion. He was certain he was a critical cog in the machine, working in a department that reported to the mayor — much thanks to his father, who was a bigshot lawyer. The thing is, Tim had difficulty doing even basic tasks and was more of a thorn in his boss's side than anything else. After an egregious event at work, Tim was fired. Before you feel bad for the dude, he was technically offered the opportunity to resign. But…

A nefarious plot by the CEO to lay off all workers at a big-box electronic store triggered a rebellion by the store's manager that would send the corporate entity reeling. Is this a plot line written by George RR Martin? Or a modern retelling of Robin Hood? You be the judge! When the employees of the store accidentally learned of this plot, it was a free-for-all. The manager was angered and made use of his discounting privileges to provide all employees with a once-in-a-lifetime shopping spree…

It turns out people really can be that crazy and that entitled.

This “proud owner of ‘Peanut’” should spend some time looking in the mirror to reflect on why she thinks herself to be above the rules. What stands out to me the most in the original poster's writing is the line, “I apologized and said the most convenient thing for me was to come here with Peanut.” The most convenient thing for her acknowledges

It's always awkward to try and parent someone else's kid, but this woman thinks she did the right thing by asking her brother to make his kids behave . U/C_E_Ki wrote to the r/AmItheA***** subreddit with an important question regarding her family. She writes that she and her GF hosted her brother, his wife, and their two young kids , both under age 5. The OP writes that she was never crazy about the idea, as she and her brother never seem to get along that well when they hang out. But after the…
