Sometimes the way workers are treated is so mind-blowingly poor it's unbelievable. Yet here we are with a new insane story of a worker having to maliciously comply or epically quit. Recently, an annoyed ex-employee took to Reddit to share their story of their epic last days at work at an old job of their's. They had been working at the company for a couple of years already and was offered a third promotion. They wanted to accept, but the manager looked at their time card and saw they were exact…

One teen wondered if they were the jerk for getting angry at their friend's bizarre joke. The r/AmItheA****** community quickly rallied to let this teen know that friends shouldn't treat you like this! The writer, u/Wrong_Possession_839, described a scenario that took place at a restaurant that left a huge divide between them and their friend group . In the comments, the writer also added a few extra details that helped people gain insight into the situation. As they wrote, the entire friend gr…

These people were all served the coldest revenge dishes...

What is wrong with people.

"Your own story makes me think you'd be a risk," one commenter told this entitled job-seeker . Sometimes Reddit posters on r/AmItheA****** don't give the whole story in their post, because this person has some serious issues with workplace behavior that she just brushes off. In this post, u/boasoas is asking if she's in the wrong for a situation that arose after she lost her job. Job loss is horrific, but you have to be strategic about your next moves. For this OP, she badgered her boyfriend's…

You haven't experienced the true face of humanity unless you've worked at one point or another in customer service, and yes, that includes retail. The fact of the matter is, you can't indoctrinate someone for minimum wage and expect them to actually give a hoot about the job. It's not a secret, customers know this, management knows this, heck the workers themselves are well aware. Now, of course, there are the outliers, the people who care about their employment, the ones who make an effort to…

If there's one universal truth in this world, it's that when there's a fight between a teacher and a parent, the parent will almost always come out on top.

We all believe that if we witnessed something terrible taking place, we'd certainly take some sort of action to help the person in trouble. Then why are there so many videos rampant online showing what psychologists like to call ‘The Bystander Effect’? For those of you who don't know, this term, otherwise known as ‘Bystander Apathy’, is when something happens right in front of you and a bunch of other people's eyes, yet none of you step in or do anything. Why? For some weird reason, the presenc…

Sometimes, you just aren't good at something, and that's okay; not everyone is going to excel at everything they try, and that's just the way it is. We're all individuals with different skills who might find certain things more or less challenging. Still, it's important that we keep our egos in check and not lash out at others for our own shortcomings—for displaying grace in the midst of one's failings will determine how others will perceive your character. Some people don't seem to get this an…

It's really easy nowadays to pirate software, which is probably why everybody does it, including big companies that can easily afford to buy the original. Of course, there are those anti-pirating-angels, who wish to wear their halos for all to see — which begs the question, why (besides taking cash into account) don't we download the genuine version of the software? Why are we so quick to dismiss it? The reason is actually pretty simple. You can't run the stupid thing without an internet connec…

Everyone should have their time to shine, but some people can't help being the main character in their lives 24/7. We all have these people in our lives, and maybe you are that person! Some people love to post every minute of their lives on their socials, which of course their friends will comment on, hyping up their reels, snaps , or TikToks. It's so lovely when your besties give you love on your photos, but too much of that might give you a big head. Even influencers with just a few hundred f…

First, I think it's important to mention that the employee in question was a teenage girl. The job in question was being a newspaper carrier. And the boss in question was a complete and total idiot who thought she could cheat her employee out of a proper wage. When you're a kid entering the workforce (If I may call it that), you are probably going to be taken advantage of, salary-wise. Today, being a paperboy isn't as prevalent as it was back in the day before we could access the News on any an…

What kind of insane power trip is this boss on? Does he seriously think he can just order his workers not to quit? There's a word for the type of relationship this boss is looking for—and it's not “employment.” This guy seriously thinks himself a feudal lord and that all of his “serfs” are dependent on him for life or death. That guilt trip of "how could you leave and do this to your coworkers" is a common manipulation tactic… and there are too many red flags to count here. He's probably trying…

Never bite off more than you can chew!

This is apparently an unspoken rule of job interviews, but do you actually follow this rule yourself? On the r/antiwork subreddit, u/Cavs1850 shared the one thing that made them get out of an interview so fast that they didn't even start it. As this writer shared, they showed up to an interview early, as one should. They were a few minutes early for a 1 PM interview, but by the time 1:05 rolled around, the manager conducting the interview was nowhere to be seen. Five minutes isn't the end of th…

By now we have all heard of Chat GPT...
