Nothing is worse than when you're at work, getting close to quittin' time, and your manager comes in and asks you to do something that isn't even in your job description. It's nothing too big , so you don't wanna say no, but also… Wtf, boss. So what do you do? You can either do what they asked and then be that person they always ask to do crap that isn't part of your job and never get a raise for it. Or you can do what they asked, but with a little petty revenge in there. Get your malicious com…

But let's be honest here—how many of us are guilty of taking small breaks from our work to browse Reddit. . . . For more,

Each workplace comes with its own unique issues, especially nowadays.

If you have never gotten a tattoo before and somebody tells you something like, “oh it doesn't hurt on your thigh” or “oh it huts more on the ribs than it does your feet”—that's BS. First of all, it is different for everybody so no one place is going to hurt less than the other. Also, yes, of course it is going to hurt, you're getting jabbed with a needle a million times over and over again. How you handle pain is what matters. Tough dude “alpha male” wannabes are always acting like they can ha…

Some people were just born to bring color into the world and Zach is no exception, expressing himself every day at work with the mega-fin on his head and colorful bursting designs. At the beginning of the pandemic, Zach struggled to find ways to keep his own kids at home entertained so to pass the time (and have some fun_, he shaved his head into a 6"…

One dude asked for help regarding this super awkward situation with their boss, writing, “Honestly, if I wasn’t terrified of getting fired… I’d would find this situation funny [and] hilarious.”

I think it's safe to assume here that this guy did not, in fact, get the job… but—hey, job interviews are stressful experiences, and each of us handles that stress in different ways.
