FAIL

People working in the service industry are already muddling through long enough shifts without having to worry about juggling entitled, and outright aggressive complaints from the world's army of Karens. Fortunately, this Karen was smoothly put in her place after asking to speak to restaurant's manager. Oh boy, to have witnessed the look of hopeless defeat on her face. 

Whether English is your first language or not, people still have an extremely hard time navigating the finer points of spelling and wordology. These blunderous foibles of the English language drive home the fact that a one-letter mistake can mean a whole lot of difference, and even spelling something phonetically can lead to catastrophically regrettable spelling fails. 

Just because someone is paid to do a job doesn't guarantee that they're not going to embrace the process with nothing short of heroic laziness, and ultimately fail to do the dang gig correctly. We've assembled a fine collection of design fails from the world's temporarily fail prone professionals. You'd think that the graphic design building would have a bit of a better design going on. 

Hey man, these are strange times. Time itself seems to be kicking along at the strangest pace. It could be a result of the dystopian world we all found ourselves muddling through about a year ago. With that being said, it doesn't hurt to check that calendar before bombarding a call center with a fiery complaint that absolutely could've been avoided in the first place. 

It sounds like the coworker involved in this story that ended up embarrassing herself, really had it coming. She clearly was walking around with all kinds of presumptions, and that ended up catching up with her. Can't imagine what the look on her face must've been like. 

It seems like this guy was being taken advantage of just a bit. Of course the last year has been historically difficult for so many people. There's a balance between being understanding/compassionate and also respecting your self through standing your ground and not letting people walk all over you. Human beings can be terrible when it comes to taking advantage of someone's good graces. By the sound of it, this guy is feeling a bit of regret over having to confront his roommates, but it also sounds like he didn't really have any other choice. 

For some more roommates drama, check out this woman who couldn't stand her roommates, broke the lease agreement, and then dealt with her roommates totally flipping out. 

It seems like this whole situation was destined for a customer meltdown from the very start. Like, how on earth do you navigate a customer's impossible demand that involves garlic free garlic bread? With that being said, it is so overwhelmingly strange that it's actually pretty hilarious. We can only imagine what other kinds of ludicrous requests that folks working customer service jobs are having to field on a daily basis. 

We're not sure what was going through this Karen's head. To have the nerve to literally expect your kid to be able to just steal another kid's toys, just because, escapes all rhyme and reason. It sounds like the dude on the other end of this put her in her place, and it wasn't the first time -- nor will it be the last time. Some folks are hurting for the reality check more than others. 

The thing about having someone work for you is that you have to pay them. If you're not upholding that simple part of the whole situation, then you might as well gear on up for chaos to break out. Or, in this case, some sweet malicious compliance. We do love seeing a dumb boss who ends up getting their rightful comeuppance. 

Some friends go to more extreme lengths than others when it comes to defending people's honor. In this case, you've just got to love the nature of this petty revenge. The intentions were nothing short of pure, but the result ended up being a hilarious mess. For another revenge tale check out this story about a roommate who refused to pay rent and then got schooled in court. 

It would be admittedly hard to learn a totally new user interface after the age of 50. But that doesn't stop old people from wrangling with social media, posting their passwords, printing out poorly cropped Instagram posts and responding to cake recipes as if they were a neighbor. Can we really blame a group of people who already had adult children before they ever heard of AOL? From the wholesome to the absurd, here are old people on social media doing their best.

You've got to be as careful as you can when it comes to who you end up rooming with. Some people can put on a carefully practiced demeanor that makes them seem polite enough, but that can give way to a true monster underneath. The last thing you want to find yourself dealing with is living in close proximity to someone who you'd just as well love to never cross paths with out in the real world. Hopefully these people's stories of their worst roommates don't ring any bells for experiences of your own with roommates. 

Real or not, just picturing this whole scenario where a dude walks into a shop like the one we have in this story, and the proceeds to cluelessly, stubbornly get his vegan girlfriend the last thing she'd want, is enough to get the laughs rolling. Some people refuse to take the help that's so graciously offered their way. This guy really should've just listened up when he had the chance. We can't imagine that the particular plate got him out of the doghouse at all. Check out some more gold from Tumblr with this family's heated Christmas vampire tradition.
