FAIL

Honestly, this manager sounds like he's all kinds of shady. It's moments like the one we hear about in this tech support tale that further demonstrate the value of hard working and aware tech support employees. "Joe" was trying to pull off what very well could've been a criminal action. Fortunately though, he came up short and got humiliated in the process. 

If there's anything to learn from all the regrettable and dumb spelling fails we see on a daily basis, it's that absolutely no one is immune to really stupid mistakes when it comes to their mastery of the English language. Non-native speakers and people who have been speaking English their whole lives all succumb to the fun and frustration of the English language, and at this rate it looks like there's no way to stop it.

Work is a necessary evil. Doing stuff basically sucks, but it's better than being hungry, wet and cold all the time, so the choice is pretty obvious. Naturally, most of us try to get through the day employing as little effort as possible, and sadly for some of us it really shows. "Not my job" moments of failure fill up our streets and living spaces, providing at least some ironic consolation that everyone, not just you, is doing the bare minimum. These moments of dubious professionalism are far from our best work, and it shows.

The world is a merciless place filled with chaos and misfortune of all stripes. It's almost not even worth it thinking about what could go wrong, just because so much can go wrong. Worried your dog will escape your fence? Well he's already chewed up your shoes. Afraid your car will get towed in that iffy spot? Well it's been crushed by a tree. It's clear that in life, things just keep happening and we only have a little bit of control over the menagerie of misfortune that might befall us.

There's nothing quite as puzzling as the bold confidence of a glaringly evident fool. It can be quite entertaining and disheartening at the same time to watch someone go off on whatever tangent they feel compelled to go on, all the while with no idea that they have no idea what they're talking about. Maybe these insights will take you on a trip down memory lane to an experience of your own. 

You just never know if you're going to end up in the crossfires of a terribly entitled parent. This mom sounds like she was a whole handful. Honestly though, it seems like her horrific performance at the restaurant was for the best for everyone else involved. Besides the poor employees that had to put up with her toxic behavior, of course. 

Oh mom, her heart was in the right place. Little did she somehow not know that the act of washing a computer would result in the technology being completely ruined. Just imagine being the poor tech support employee caught up on the other end of this absurd debacle. For some more tech support drama check out this customer who tried to get a tech support employee fired, and then ended up being showed up in the process. 

Man oh man, anyone who has ever muddled through the perpetual grind that can be working a customer service job knows that the gig comes with its infuriating fair share of troubles from inconsiderate customers. Some are certainly worse than others though. This particular customer sounds like he was quite the handful with his big wad of artificial cash. Fortunately, the malicious compliance that ensued was able to put him in check. 

Man, oh, man, our hearts go out to any hard working employees that have to deal with these levels of hostile entitlement. The choosing beggars of the world have a way of tossing their social decency out the window when their irrational demands are inevitably rejected. This Karen was in way over her head from the start. 

No matter how confident you are, it's always a good idea to get a second eyes on a project. "Hey, what's with this stairway to nowhere" they might say. Or "did you realize that when your van door slides open it condenses Butter Salesman into Butt Man." There are more stupid design failures out there than you could shake a stick at, and even that stick might have some fatal flaws. These design failures deserve some blame.

Man, you really never know if you're going to end up moving into a new home that's seemingly perfect on the surface level, only to realize that you're living next to an entitled, waking nightmare of a human being. This guy's neighbor sounds like he stubbornly refused to get a clue. No matter how many infuriating wakeup calls he was given. Not really sure what the best course of action could be from here. Some people refuse to take the hints that are so graciously provided them. 

Oh boy, buckle up for a little trouble in lover's paradise. Marriage basically inevitably comes with its series of hurdles. Some of those might seem more insurmountable than others at times. With that being said, this husband really went and stirred up the pot when he decided to eat his kid's special candy. Queue his wife having a bit of a meltdown over the matter. You be the judge though, was dad in the wrong for his decision to insensitively cave into his sweet tooth? 

Sure, doing your job the right way is fine and all, but you save some much time and energy by doing things completely improperly. Sure, these become "not my job" moments of failure, but think of all the time and effort saved when you install a gutter system in a way that conveniences no one. These "not my job" moments of dubious professionalism are making it easier for some of us.

The world's never been in short demand of wildly irrational choosing beggars and their infuriatingly endless series of demands. Sometimes, the choosing beggars are so dang deluded that it actually ends up being pretty entertaining. Like in the conversation we have here with this fine fella. The choosing beggar is relentless in their pursuit toward haggling, but ultimately they're served up the reality check that they needed all along. Get some more choosing beggar drama with this absurd lying stranger who wouldn't pay for a rug, and thought they won. 

Food allergies are no joke. With that being said, if a restaurant fails to make good on an order from a customer who specifically asks for certain problem ingredients to be left out, it could be viewed as fair for them to send the order back. As long as the sending of the order back is being handled in a fair, respectful matter it shouldn't be too big of a problem at all. So, this customer asked for a new burger, the restaurant refused, and then the customer decided to only leave enough money for their drink. Some folks in the comments section are in agreement that that was a reasonable move to make. 

An unfortunate many of us have ended up in the middle of a nerve-racking scenario, where we're hearing strange, unnerving noises come from some part of the home, with no idea what could be causing it. Or, even worse, the rampant imagination runs along at a maddening pace, and dreams up some terrible hypothetical situation that you end up believing. We're just glad that it all worked out for this person.
