Never mess with a flight attendant. This lady was in a relationship with her pilot boyfriend and often stayed at his apartment when she was off and while he was still working. Unfortunately, she discovered that he had an entirely separate relationship with another girlfriend, who was staying at his second apartment in Hong Kong. It must be fairly easy to cheat and hide the truth when your job is to travel all over the world. Thankfully, this lady was not going to go without a fight. Before leav…

The first day of starting a new job is not at all as exciting as one imagines it to be. You always expect it to be a great new adventure and that people will welcome you with open arms, but that is often not the case. There are so many logistics when it comes to adding a new employee to a company, that the first day is usually just a chaotic bureaucratic mess, and you might go home at the end of the day and question whether or not you made a mistake. The important thing to remember is that ever…

No one likes to be told what to do, especially after working hours. In theory, it's simple to remember that after your employee has clocked out, they are in no way entitled to follow your direction as a manager. However, every so often, we come across a story where someone takes that mentality a bit too far. In this instance , we have an employee who was strictly told when he was first onboarded to never take on extra responsibilities after he clocks out. That's a nice, mutually beneficial work…

Your inconvenience is not my problem.

Every so often, one feels the urge to write a review of a local restaurant online… If you're a good customer and a decent human being, you likely feel this urge when you want to shine a light on great food, great service, and all-around great vibes. Those kinds of reviews can boost the online profile of a small place and can really help draw in customers. Now, if you're an entitled Karen customer, you may feel the urge to write an online review because you just have to air your grievances to th…

Calling out sick when you need the money is not something employees want to do. Of course, most managers don't even consider this. They just assumed that the sick employee is just lazy, when in reality, it often takes a lot of effort and strength to admit to oneself and to others that you're not well enough to do your job today. As for how this manager reacted to an employee's health update, it should be up to the manager to find last-minute coverage; that is, after all, a manager's role. Emplo…

For most of us, finding out that there's a person living in our crawlspace under our home is an unsettling thought... But this woman was decidedly level-headed and compassionate after discovering a transient person hiding under her floorboards.

Not that we don't LOVE listening to Cocomelon 24/7, buuuut...

"They didn't even offer to give it back after not letting us get it, they just took it and used it."

This guy's girlfriend better start looking for a new job as soon as possible. Unfortunately, there were red flags long before she was “quiet fired.” First, there was the fact that when she applied for her current barista position, she was promised free meals that were automatically deducted from her paycheck. Those “benefits” were taken away from employees soon after her hiring, but she noticed something strange about her subsequent paychecks. It turns out that they were still deducting the lun…

Anyone who has ever lived with another person had to deal with some kind of drama related to food. It is simply unavoidable. We are all so specific about our food, what, when, where, and how we eat, so when someone else gets thrown into the mix, chaos is bound to ensue. There are a few different approaches when it comes to food in a shared space. You can either buy everything together and split the costs, you can share nothing and have each of you buy their own food and keep it completely separ…

Employees who decide to quit their terrible jobs often face the dilemma of – on what terms do they want to leave said jobs? Sometimes, all you want to do is tell your soon-to-be former manager just how awful it was working for them, and air out all the reasons they made you hate the job. However, you might not want to burn any bridges and leave on bad terms, because you never know when you might run into those people again, or if you ever find yourself in need of something from them, so saying…

Now, what does one have to do to be considered for one of these positions? As much as we all enjoy criticizing folks who get paid a fortune to do next to nothing, it wouldn’t hurt to get a taste of how the other half lives, would it? There were a few industries in this list that came up multiple times, so clearly, more than one individual feels the same way about people who work in finance, consulting, or corporate middle management. Someone in the comments section phrased it in the best way wh…

Your family should always come first in your priorities. Having said that, is it your duty as a family member to encourage and assist them in all of their endeavors, no matter how foolish they may be? The story below is an account of a frustrated sister. The original poster (OP) worked very hard to ensure that she lived in a beautiful house and had a nice life. Her sister, on the other hand, made the decision to travel with her entire fortune and even sold her house to earn the additional cash.…

Anyone who worked in retail or any customer service job knows that the sentence – ‘The customer is always right’ could not have been further from the truth. Not only is the customer not always wrong, but the customer is often very very wrong. The real meaning behind this sentence is that you should make the customers feel like they are always right, so they will end up leaving the business happy, but that is not an easy task to do, especially when what the customer asks for is against policies…

Humans are often creatures of habit, meaning they like things done a certain way even if it doesn't make sense or is financially beneficial in the long run. The story below is an account of a frustrated employee. The original poster (OP) had been employed by the same business for a considerable amount of time. He must occasionally fly for work-related meetings as part of his profession. Therefore, OP prefers to usually plan the trip on his own, without the assistance of a travel agency, in an e…
