Customers aren't always right, but they're happy to be confidently wrong. This person worked at an ice cream parlor as a teenager, which is a typical first job for many kids. U/chsser writes that they generally enjoyed the role, but they had a few regulars who had zero patience. At any restaurant, there are bound to be delays, and you might even get the wrong order from time to time. If you're a regular, it'll probably happen to you eventually. The person antagonizing this teen was a regular to…

You've probably heard that old adage about the new hire who goes in for their first day of training ready to do everything by the book but is instead surprised and maybe even disappointed when they're instead taught all of the shortcuts that the experienced grizzled employee has developed over the years, cutting out the parts of the process that are superfluous and unnecessary. The problem is that by learning and only using the shortcuts in the first instance, they're never going to understand…

When you go out to eat at a restaurant, do you wait at the entrance for someone to seat you, or do you go inside on your own and just sit at an available table? If the first option is your answer, congratulations, you are a decent human being. However, If you behave like the second option, we recommend you reconsider your choices in life, as that is simply not okay. The server in this Reddit story had to deal with some entitled guests who refused to wait to be seated. Despite clearly noticing t…

Talk about a savage way to go! This Redditor was offered a job on a military base that required him to relocate to Japan. However, after just one week, he was let go with barely any explanation. He hadn't even gotten a chance to execute his central responsibilities in the position since that first week was largely about getting settled and doing minimal training. Instead, he was dismissed with next to no explanation. His boss told him there would be other jobs on the base so it's not like he wo…

Why is it that when employees quit, they usually have to stay at their job for at least another two weeks, but when they get fired, they leave the same day without any additional work? Those two weeks since you hand in your notice and until your actual last day are always extremely awkward. Everyone at the office knows you quit, and basically have no interest in working with them anymore, the actual work you do feels pointless, and your manager is probably trash-talking you behind your back. Is…

The gaul to schedule a quasi-mandatory work event on Labor Day weekend is insane

These teenagers thought they'd figured out a perfect way to get their whole group home for a cheap price. Teenagers don't usually have tons of money to spend---they usually only have their allowances, or maybe they have a little spending money if they've gotten a minimum wage job somewhere. Up next, these confounding courtroom arguments make for some hilarious stories, like one person whose “mother's lawyer argued… that I had to add my mother as a Facebook friend .”

This Karen, a cheapo haggler, decided she didn't feel like paying market value for her bathroom remodel after haranguing her contractor for months over every nickel and dime, but this ultimately cost more than just a couple thousand dollars, it would cost the integrity of her entire house.

This is the kind of prank that people dream about. To think up and then execute such a brilliant way to get your least favorite coworker to quit on the spot is just * chef's kiss *. Perfection! This guy was working in construction when he managed to make someone rage quit on the spot, and do so in such a way that he could never get his job back. It's probably occurred to all of us at some point that quitting a job on the spot would feel so good. Telling your boss to go kick rocks and triumphant…

This boss clearly enjoys messing around with his soon-to-be former employees on their last days. Whatever happened to being professional and leaving things on a strong note? It sounds like this dude has yet to put two and two together and realize that his manipulative and outright cruel tactics are the main reason why one employee after another is quitting on the spot. The original poster (OP) of this thread explained that after giving their two weeks' notice, they overheard their boss telling…

What do you do when your neighbor expects to use your Wi-fi for free?

"I spilled coffee onto my clothes. Never make that mistake again. I brought brownies in. Never do that again, people could have allergies."

Just how much should you care about your neighbor's yard ? It all depends how well you can mind your business, which this woman has yet to do. Instead, she's content to stick her nose into everyone else's business, and she's trying to involve the local HOA, too. Most of us have a hundred things on our plate at any given time, between work, school, childcare or caring for parents, hobbies, and having a social life. We're often juggling so many things that it can be completely exhausting. But not…

Sometimes, it's better to just leave well enough alone. By making an issue about what you “do or don't” have when you're, well… wrong—you're more than likely to end up with less than you started with in the first place. Especially, as it turns out when you're disputing what you think is the boundary of your new property… Because, as in this story, the neighbor who has been there for longer probably knows a thing or two about why that “boundary” was established in the first place As at any point…

Diving into the belly of the beast

Imagine reaching the end of your final two weeks at your mediocre job you can't wait to leave and learning that your boss knows your new boss. To make matters worse, not only do they know each other, but your current boss feels comfortable threatening to inform your new boss that you are the type to slack off on the job. Of course, this isn't exactly true. This employee had just been slacking off and doing the bare minimum over these last two weeks because who goes above and beyond when they're…
