I was fired and am being told I need repay $1,100

Update: 'They threatened to take further legal action': Employee fired and asked to repay $1,100 to employer for unsubstantiated wage theft

There are petty employers — then there are employers who fire you for bogus claims of wage theft and demand repayment of said wages. The crazy part is the employer doesn't seem to have (or isn't willing to offer) any proof to back their claims. They're just like, “You're fired, and btw you owe us money," and expect the employee to comply. After being accused of claiming hours that they had not worked, this employer demanded repayment of the supposed wages under the threat of a lawsuit. In reali…

AITA for telling my parents that I make more than both my siblings when they told me to get a real job | I'm a nanny to 2 special needs kids. There's a very high demand for nannies for special needs kids because 3 special needs daycares in my county shut down, so I make approximately $120,000

20 iPhone memes for people who have a cracked screen right now

20 iPhone memes for people who have a cracked screen right now

iPhones are fine and all, but sometimes I think the best age of technology was when people had iPods and Razor phones. Phones/texting and music used to be in separate places (but today's kids don't know about that…just kidding, we all know you can Google anything in .5 seconds). Or, there was the intriguing mid-2000s era when we had green iPod nanos and cell phones with a slide-out keyboard, which gave us a lot of quirky looking flip phones. Technology seemed so exciting back then! Today, we ha…

What do you call the end piece of bread?

30+ People share different culture's names for that 'end piece of the bread', a surprising amount of cultures have the same idea

If you needed proof that all cultures have something in common: This is it. As it turns out, that end piece of crusty bread is regarded in a similar, if not identical, way in each culture. Forever an outcast, or as the Scottish put it: an outsider, that end piece of bread is regarded by all to be an inferior or unwanted portion, earning names like 'The Mother-in-Law,' the 'Butt' 'Boss,' 'Heel,' 'Nob'; all terms being derogatory, unwanted, and utterly dreadful, dirty things. This is a topic that…

AITA for going to get ice cream instead of going home after my flight landed? | He promised he would pick me up from the airport and we would spend time together but he sent his brother instead. I was upset even though my brother-in-law told me something came up which is why he was there instead.
