"Every bloody morning I put our outside tables and chairs out 20 mins before we open. Every single day when I'm lugging the first couple of heavy ass tables out into the street, I inevitably get someone asking if we're open yet. Well obviously not since I'm still setting up, but whatever."

'Every. F-ing. Morning.': Service industry worker goes off on impassioned rant about when customers try to push inside early

Working in retail, customer service, or in the service industry opens you up to a variety of mind-numbing experiences. The first category would probably be the repetitive tasks that you have to do day in and day out. These chores all require next-to-no brain power and could be completed by a monkey. There are only so many shirts you can fold, walls you can merchandise, or stock-takes you can complete before beginning to contemplate moving out to an off-grid cabin in the woods.

'I'm charging him full rate': Account manager screws over bigoted client and runs them out of business

Some people don't deserve to be in business, unfortunately, these jerks' and bigots' ruthless business practices often make them more successful instead of causing them to fail. That is unless they're incredibly stupid or someone intervenes to put an end to them. Both of those things happened in this story as shared by an account manager, u/redditadmindumb87, to the r/prorevenge subreddit. In their story, they describe a terrible client of theirs who “was a royal PITA." He was racist and bigote…

Can’t expense my bike rides home? Okay, then I’ll take very expensive ubers instead.| I have recently started a new job and one of the perks is that if you work late, you can have a free dinner and then take an uber back home. However, I much prefer renting an electric bike back home (you know the ones on the sidewalk). It’s faster, much better for the environment, fun and a great way to decompress after a long day’s of work.

'Can’t expense my bike rides home?': Employer refuses to accept bike hire expenses in lieu of Uber

Written rules and policies can be ridiculously shortsighted. Often times they've been committed to paper hurriedly by an HR rep, or middle manager, responding to demands that are being placed on them by frustrated executives. The aforementioned situation often results in entirely one-dimensional rules that don't offer any room for leeway or interpretation on a case-by-case basis.

AITA for leaving my best friend and his friends stranded in an unfamiliar city?|I have a habit of leaving my keys on a hook next to the door to my bedroom in my camper. Remember this. Come nightfall, I went to take a phone call outside and ended up wandering around the grounds for over an hour. When I got back to the camper, the door was locked, and I was told by my best friend's older friend through the window that there wasn't enough room for me in MY trailer.

'Why would you do this?': Guy strands entitled friends after they lock him out of his own camper

After kindly offering to drive his best friend and co to a “Spartan race” in another state, this guy's services were kindly repaid when they locked him out of his own camper for the night. The reasoning given was somewhere along the lines of there not being enough room (which was told to him through a locked door that they refused to open.) The insanity of this knows no bounds. He was being denied access and the ability to stay in his own camper that he had towed there with his own truck. In wh…

I quit without notice and boss Is telling me I have to come back. | I quit an awful job without notice. It was anguish to my mental health. I found better work that I'm happy with and pays more.  My ex boss texted me saying I promised her I would work a full year and that she expects me to come back. I haven't replied to any of her texts or emails.

'I quit without notice and boss Is telling me I have to come back.': Employee quits a bad boss, told they have to continue working

What is it with bad business owners wanting their bad behavior repaid with goodwill? By the time employees reach the point where they're willing to walk out of a job without notice the notion of “good faith” or goodwill between the two parties has long since gone out the window. Sure there's the odd time that an employee bears the onus for the falling out, but when this happens, an employer will use this one person as an excuse to mistreat the rest of their employees forevermore “To make sure i…

AITA for leaving my family in "squalor" and going to a "resort". | So let's begin with this. I make decent money but I am in no way rich. I like to take my family on vacation and have been stymied for the last couple of years.

"I got sick of it.': Guy ditches entitled in-laws after endless complaints about a holiday HE paid for

When you finance a vacation for your wife's entire family, you might expect to receive at least one or two words of thanks and gratitude. Well, sometimes the expectation doesn't quite align with reality, and sometimes it really doesn't align. This is how it was when u/Murky_Ad_193 decided to bankroll the entirety of a Disney getaway for their in-laws. They paid for everything , right down to a “McMansion” for the family to stay in, groceries, and a rental truck for them to get around in. But, a…
