For some reason, employers appear consistently willing to hire a new employee for a higher salary and better deal overall than they will ever budge to give to an existing employee, leaving the myth of loyalty to your company doing anything for you lurching in the wind. More and more often, people are taking to the internet to detail their troubles trying to get raises out of their employers, and Redditor u/willcalliv did just that when they sent this detailed list of demands to their employer k…

Thanks, dad.

This guy gets a fat paycheck after being forced to work both shifts when management refuses to hire another worker.

Education is challenging for everyone involved. For students it's a matter of being able to pay attention when you're almost certain you could be spending your time more wisely. For teachers it's a matter of being engaging while dodging all the garbage the parents and the district try to throw at you. So here are some memes for the teachers and the people who deal with them. Honestly these are pretty much a lot like work memes but with the added challenge of having to deal with stupid people's…

Maybe just show up on time next time?

A simple rule of ticketed transportation is to sit where you actually have a reserved ticket to sit at. People don't always follow that rule, and that's not even a big deal as long as they recognize they're in the wrong place when someone does actually arrive to sit in their designated seat and move.

There's absolutely no downside. So if you're out here saying this is childish, moronic, and only idiots could find this funny, you are right and you need to find some different company. Now here's a waffle maker that also makes farts.

Do we stand with Jason on this? 6'3.

Perhaps it's the fact that the movie adaptations were cast excellently and made us feel like we were really there in Middle Earth? Or maybe it's literally every other aspect of this completely perfect story? Let's just settle on “everything except the way Denethor eats that tomato.”

Why can't we just enjoy the silence? ______ It is amazing what technology has contributed to our experience outdoors. The advancement of lithium-ion batteries has increased our ability to enjoy and interact with nature, and do it with relative assured safety.

Facepalm

Too much farting apparently equals heart attack symptoms…

This person was minding their own business, just driving along when an officer decided to get in their day a little. Being an upstanding citizen, this driver went full malicious compliance and followed his instructions to the letter. Seems like the ensuing awkwardness got this person out of a totally BS ticket. For a strange one, here's the Karen who tried to steal a woman's mobility scooter and got caught in a slow speed chase.

“Birds Aren't Real” is a parody conspiracy movement with the express goal of getting the word out that the government has replaced every bird with a robotic replica. Given the opportunity to talk about his cause in the high stakes world of Chicago morning news, Peter McIndoe did this.

Life is all about those little things that just work. Like when you learn how to play “Mary Had A Little Lamb” with a dial tone or figure out that a calculator can say “BOOBIES." And this is very much one of those moments. Ladies and Gentlemen, 20th Century Fox on forcemeat.
