'I know I paid already': Entitled Karen gets proven wrong after insisting that she paid for her hotel room in advance

'I know I paid already': Entitled Karen gets proven wrong after insisting that she paid for her hotel room in advance

Don't you just love it when someone makes a scene only to discover that they were in the wrong the entire time? This Karen waltzed up to the front desk of a hotel and claimed she did not owe anything because when she booked her reservation, she paid in advance. She even threw out the classic “I've been doing this for a long time” line to the concierge. The reality is that the front desk agent had also been doing this for a long time and could immediately sense that this woman still owed $99. Af…

OP (original poster) tells the tale of how their friends were supposed to buy a hous…

'This is the story of how I got back at them': Impolite construction workers bother hotel staffers and guests, employee finds a petty way to retaliate

This construction crew was, unsurprisingly, up really early. They tend to do that: construction workers often begin their days in the early morning hours before the sun rises. The crew staying at u/cavelioness's hotel was no different: they were starting their days before the hotel staff could even provide breakfast for them. Next, this retail boss wanted his employee to add a major responsibility to their job, but that employee refused, writing, “ I got fired and cost the store approximately $…

Boss rescinds job offer immediately after candidate asks them about paying schedule, claiming: ‘I don't like staff always asking about pay’

Boss rescinds job offer immediately after candidate asks them about paying schedule, claiming: ‘I don't like staff always asking about pay’

In a perfect world, people would work because they enjoy what they do, and only care about the job itself, nothing else. Unfortunately, in our world, most people work because they need money, which means that the work itself is not really a top priority for employees. So if a job candidate asks a question about the pay, that should come across as acceptable and reasonable for all hiring managers. Employees deserve to know everything they need to before taking on a new job, and they should defin…

HOA demands residents sell their cars and renovate their homes before 2026: 'This is the best for the neighborhood'

Then, everything changed when a member of the homeowner's associated contacted each resident about the limit they were imposing on the number and type of cars that can be parked outside their homes.

Restaurant guests demand entry 5 minutes before closing, server complies, only to refuse their orders as soon as the restaurant closes: ‘I got the last laugh'

Restaurant guests demand entry 5 minutes before closing, server complies, only to refuse their orders as soon as the restaurant closes: ‘I got the last laugh'

There is nothing more irritating than customers coming in 5 minutes before closing time. Mostly because 90% of the time, the people who come in at that time are the worst kind of customers. They are entitled and demanding, and think the world revolves around them. They absolutely do not care that you want to go home after a long shift, and they will do anything in order to make your life as difficult as possible in those last moments of work. The entitled guests in this Reddit story are no diff…

'You think you know more than me?': A/V Technician puts bassist in his place

The world of small-time amateur musicians and semi-professional audio/visual techs is no joke and, like any small niche hobbyist community, is handled with deadly seriousness and rigorous hierarchy—with out-of-control egos abound. To a degree, this is fair… poorly engineered audio/visual setups are one of those things that can go hilariously and disastrously wrong, and even small mistakes or technical hiccups can ruin events and severely hamper their intended purpose. And I promise you; it's in…

'Two crows have extorted me into providing them boiled eggs': Suburban resident fights back against crafty birds who targeted their trash

'Two crows have extorted me into providing them boiled eggs': Suburban resident fights back against crafty birds who targeted their trash

Crows are some of the smartest birds out there, and they're teaming up to get what they want from this suburban neighborhood. As humans build more and more houses for ourselves, we're slowly eliminating the places where wildlife can live . Each new housing development kicks out the deer, raccoons, squirrels, and birds that are native to the area (and possibly even bears or moose, depending on where you live). This means that more and more, humans are interacting with wildlife up close and perso…

'I don't tip. I won't pay for dinner. I won't pay for our Uber': Top Tinder Moments of the Week (July 30, 2024)

Chivalry may not be alive and well these days, but whatever has replaced it is, at the very least, entertaining. Well, it's entertaining if it's not happening to you, that is. Otherwise, it's just infuriating. However, that's the wonderful world of dating in the digital age. For those of us who are lucky enough to remember a time before dating apps, there were, in theory, far more romantic ways to meet someone. That being said, one could argue that human beings are by their very nature flawed a…

'I got fired and cost the store approximately $30,000': Retail employee refuses to work two jobs at once, boss doesn't realize they quit

This person really knows when to walk away from a job that's no good for them anymore. They happen to have impeccable timing! Some managers at retail stores will do the absolute bare minimum. A lot of them have been in retail for ages, and they feel they've earned the privilege of getting off the sales floor and cocooning themself in a back room to goof off for their whole shift. It's apparently their prerogative to do so… but their employees aren't happy about it! Instead of getting help from…

Neighbors lay claim to shared driveway by blocking access to the entire thing with an errantly parked vehicle: 'Their truck is parked diagonally'

Parking is one of those things that is always going to cause issues when limited spots are of any concern. People just don't know how to behave rationally when scarcity of resources is at hand, and the monkey part of their brain takes over. Still, when you have your own driveway, even if it's shared, you'd sort of expect that your side of it would remain accessible to you (and you alone) without issue—unfortunately, inconsiderate neighbors mean this is not always the case. In this case, these n…
