Unfortunately, a ton of us have had our run-ins with being fired from companies over the dumbest matters. Honestly, sometimes it can end up being for the best. Life is far too short to put yourself through nothing short of a hellish experience just because you're committed to chasing the next paycheck. There's always going to be another gig out there that can pay you a decent enough amount of money, without you having to bid farewell to your soul in the process. Sometimes just quitting the job in the first place or getting fired, actually opens up the opportunity for a far better job to present itself. For some more career drama check out some of the biggest red flags that people got during their job interviews. 

The world's filled with many folks who can get very particular when it comes to how they like their steaks prepared. It's not beyond reason to draw the assumption that there are plenty of people who would pitch absolute temper tantrums over any kinds of sauce being put on their steaks. I mean hey, maybe you're someone who has always enjoyed rocking a sizable amount of ketchup with your steak. To each their own. 

Doesn't mean that other people are going to necessarily understand what kind of wave you're on though. With all of that steak talk out of the way, let's take a closer look at the drama that broke out between a couple over a boyfriend deciding to put sauce on an expensive steak that was thoughtfully prepared by his girlfriend. 

The idea of having 25 tarantulas as pets in your home might send a pure and icy shot of chills down your spine, but for some folks, tarantulas are nothing short of adorable. On top of that, this particular pet owner also had a pet scorpion. As it turns out, that pet scorpion had a bit of a moment where it was able to break free from its living quarters, and apparently had ended up posting up right where its owner was going to lay her head for sleep. Just imagining a scorpion running across your face is enough to make the idea of sleep seem like a wildly unrealistic pursuit. Like, no thank you. 

It's hard to believe that this person's even real in the first place. The disgusting lack of boundaries and respect from this woman's "friend" is enough to leave you questioning how they even ended up being friends in the first place. I mean, to have the audacity to set your friend up for a blind date when they already have a partner is pretty mind-blowing. Thus, it's no wonder that this woman didn't want to be her friend's bridesmaid anymore. Sounds like the bride is already well on her way toward being nothing short of a bridezilla. 

Rejections always crush the soul just a little bit. There's something inevitable about the process of getting vulnerable and putting yourself out there that leaves you in a very fragile state. If someone decides to up and reject you to your face, the intense emotions can arise very quickly. These people outdid themselves when it comes to the petty reasons that they decided to reject folks. 

Well, this is a pure and good old-fashioned fail right here, folks. Our hearts absolutely go out to the poor goldfish that were set "free" into the very body of water that they never wanted anything to do with in the first place. Was the classmate's heart in the right place? Sure. Sure, but that doesn't mean that what they ended up doing was nothing less than an absolute catastrophe.

You've really got to hand it to the people in this world that are working tech support. They are regularly subjected to profound moments of mystifying stupidity from some of the world's most clueless human beings. It's a tech support tale like the one we have here that can really support the notion that some folks absolutely need instruction manuals for when it comes to how to navigate all the technology available at our disposal. For some more humor from the tech support world check out this story about the time that a customer genuinely believed that the internet runs on magic. 

Nothing can quite sink the spirits like realizing that you're living next to an absolute waking nightmare of a human being. Seriously, the whole business of neighbors is a risky game. You might've secured a wonderful home, but if you're also living next to an entitled and outright nasty piece of work, it can really put a damper on the whole situation. It sounds like this lady was going out of her way to give a perfectly well meaning family a hard time. Well, she certainly ended up getting her comeuppance when it was all said and done. 

Man, the people in this world that are out there stealing other people's lunches are really swinging low. It sounds like this particular lunch thief wasn't going to stop with their antics until someone literally exposed them. And oh boy, did they get exposed. I would've loved to have seen the look on "Kyle's" face when he got caught. Also though, pretty uncool on the part of the company itself for not getting involved with the lunches being stolen until one of the higher up's had their own lunch jacked. For another pro revenge tale check out the time that a landlord refused to return a deposit, got taken to court, appealed it, and then lost everything.

It's stories like these that should serve as an effective reminder that mistreating those around you can end up having all kinds of unexpected, brutal implications further on down the road. Like, for instance, it sounds as if the leader of a terribly toxic pack of this woman's old coworkers ended up getting her comeuppance later when she needed a new job, and had to get the green light from the very person that she bullied. Being able to serve up some of that karmic justice would put a spring in just about anyone's step. 

Hiring managers are really on the frontlines when it comes to catching any risky candidates that might otherwise fool a company into hiring them with a well practiced, entirely fake nice demeanor. The last thing anyone wants to end up dealing with is an employee who is only there because they have some kind of family connection. It's those family connections that can end up inviting the laziest and most entitled of folks into a company. 

If you get a job in the service industry it's not totally out of the question that you might encounter some testy characters that are determined to make everyone else's lives a bit more miserable and uncomfortable, simply because they absolutely despise their own jobs. You can develop quite the thick skin, and spicy banter to boot, if you work long enough in the industry. You learn how to let the infuriating interactions with entitled customers not totally get to you, while you juggle various rare insults from your fellow coworkers. It can be quite the scene. It sounds like these dudes were eventually able to squash their beef and some kind of friendship developed as a result. 

We're always down to try to make this whole adulting thing just a little bit easier. Thankfully, the internet contains clutch bubbles bursting with knowledge like Reddit's whole r/LifeProTips community. You never know when one of these might come in handy. So, might as well throw a few in your back pocket for the next time life is trying to be especially difficult, and you need some kind of shortcut to overcome the obstacle that it's planted in your way. 

Existence is quite bizarre. Sometimes we can end up taking that for granted, and then suddenly, life throws us a reality-shattering curveball that leaves us unable to figure out what happened no matter how much analysis and logic are applied to the strange event. This fun and disorienting AskReddit thread takes us down a lightly unsettling rabbit hole, where people share their most unforgettable "glitch in the matrix" moments. 

Oh boy, the drama between coworkers is a ceaseless phenomenon. This time around we have one woman asking the moral judges of Reddit's AITA community whether or not she was in the wrong for refusing to donate her vacation days to a pregnant coworker. Based off the context provided here it really sounds like the fault falls on the company for putting their employees in a situation where there's no paid maternity leave being provided. If they'd simply provided that, then the rest of the drama could've been avoided altogether. Or, like what if the company just gave her more time off because she's pregnant and all that? For some more juicy drama check out this quick post about an entitled coworker who demanded a free cake, got denied, and then proceeded to issue threats. 

Um, this family dynamic sounds absolutely disastrous. Like, we're talking right out of one of those painful reality shows. What kind of person has the audacity to steal their sibling's partner, marry them, and then throw a temper tantrum when their sibling doesn't want to attend the wedding? What did she expect? It sounds like someone's grown very comfortable living in their own little fantasy world. Yes, a fantasy world where she's blinded by such a thick haze of self-concerned narcissism that she's completely detached herself from her moral compass.
