The beautiful thing about being an employee is that there is a contract for everything. Once you've gotten through a few places of work, you understand that everything you ever agreed on with your employer should be written down in your contract, that both the employee and the employer sign on. Once things are written down and secured, your employers can try as they might, but taking advantage of you should not be possible, and that is one important lesson you can learn from this Reddit story.…

Doing chores and contributing to the household is just a part of being a member of the household, especially as you get older. The harsh reality is that when you're a teenager, soon the gloves are going to come off, and you're going to be faced with the harsh reality that surviving day to day as an adult requires 10x as much effort just to maintain functional normality as you anticipate when you're a kid at home. Plus, your parents are doing these things daily just to keep the family (what ofte…

If you've ever ended up with a nightmare roommate, you'll appreciate the prank this guy pulled on his entitled roommate. The Original Poster (OP) in this story had just graduated college, landed a job, and lucked into a seemingly perfect living arrangement...only to discover that his roommate, a former classmate no less, is just as he remembered her. Entitled.

If it’s not within your job description, you should have a right to say no. This employee was not a professional painter by any means, and yet, his boss seemed to have the audacity to ask him to stay late to paint the office before the owners came to visit. Now, at the very least, he offered overtime pay, but he even suggested that the Redditor bring his wife so she could be another set of hands as well (mind you, the original poster’s wife is not an employee there). Thankfully, OP had enough c…

Nothing stirs up grocery store rage quite like the "10 items or less" lane offender. When one shopper noticed the woman in front of him breaking the rule with a cart load of items, he tried to politely call her out. But this lady wasn't having it, brushing off his remark and saying, "It's just a little longer wait." Then, her kids joined in on the chaos, running back and forth to add even more items to her pile until she had officially annoyed everyone in line, including the cashier.

When people usually start looking for a new job, the one thing they have to be mindful of is constantly being available on their phones. You always have to be ready to take calls from hiring managers, and every phone call might start the path that leads to a serious trajectory in your life. When one gets the call that they got the job, it is usually accompanied by a lot of happy emotions, unless there is something fishy about the call, like what happened in this Reddit story. When the hiring ma…

Let this story serve as a friendly reminder that your coworkers are not required to go out of their way for you. Here, we have a selfish employee who announced their retirement six months prior to their last day on the job. She assumed that their “work bestie” would organize a going away party for them

When there's a reckless driver on the road, one's first instinct is presumably to protect oneself and to protect the others on the road. However, this Redditor deserves some props for not only doing that but also for finding a way to enact some safe yet satisfying petty revenge. Here's how he pulled it off. The reckless driver in question was also not the smartest person in the world, as he plastered his car with lots of personal details such as his name, phone, and website. That's because he's…

It is funny how nothing stops you from having packages delivered to any random house, as long as you know the address. There is little to no reason to do so, but if one wants, they can send anyone anything with only a few clicks on their phones. Apparently, some people have packages delivered to other people's houses as a form of scam—they send the packages to another house, wait a few days, arrive to claim those packages, and then, if the person who received them already threw them out, they a…

"Her daughter comes and puts up a security camera pointing into our garage area and backyard... So of course my husband now intends to get 3 more cameras for that side of the house to freak her out even more."

Check mate, Doctor!

This resident's step-grandmother deserves a shoutout! After all, she had the chutzpah and the audacity to confront her step-grandkid's Karen neighbor after she repeatedly treated him like poorly and thought she could get away with it. Thankfully, the kid had a secret weapon: his 82-year-old arthritic relative. For some more backstory, the Karen next door had a habit of actively dumping debris into the Redditor's garden. She also would get frustrated at the original poster (OP) for parking his c…

Future in-laws seeking advice!

Most people in relationships will tell you that the biggest arguments can stem from the most unexpected, seemingly harmless things. However, as the Redditor who shared this post mentioned, it's not really about the minutiae; it's about the bigger picture. In this instance, the bigger picture here is the fact that the original poster (OP) is the breadwinner and the person who foots the grocery bill 99% of the time, and yet, her very simple requests have not been respected. Essentially, OP purcha…

It's not fun to call out a line cutter. In fact, most folks do not consider confrontation with strangers to be their strong suit, and yet sometimes, there is no other alternative but to call these people out on their nonsense. Here, we have a babysitter who was purchasing a toy with the 3-year-old she was taking care of at the time. When it was their turn at checkout, the 3-year-old accidentally dropped the toy, which gave the impatient Karen behind them the opportunity to cut the line and insi…

Here's my number
