Family vacations are supposed to be fun for the whole family, not just a few members. But this mother wasn't too concerned about the feelings of the rest of her family, so long as she got a break for herself. Vacations are so great when you're a kid. All you have to do is sit back and enjoy the trip! Your parents will take care of all the planning, booking, transportation, and meals, and you just get to run around the beach or an amusement park to your heart's content. This 23-year-old is reali…

Some people can't take anything seriously . We call these folks the kind you “can't take anywhere” — and honestly, they are usually really fun to be around. The folks below certainly had a blast playing around with statues. Most statues are there for a serious reason, highlighting a person who made great strides in their career field or added great value to the world through humanitarian efforts. They aren't just at museums. You can find statues all over the place , from parks to malls to libra…

Some companies seem to thrive on making their employee's work lives as petty as possible. This person can certainly attest to that with their place of work, which tried to make employees' lives harder, only for it to backfire spectacularly. Many companies demand loyalty without ever proving that they're worth being loyal to. Some places want you to recall the past, when folks could work for a company for their entire career and earn a pension. But they seem to forget that people were loyal beca…

These travelers couldn't agree on who deserves to have leg room. They ended up getting in an argument, which u/earthshaker495 shared to r/MaliciousCompliance. This story takes place aboard a long haul flight — the OP was flying from Los Angeles to Singapore, a 16 hour journey. You'd certainly need to sleep and eat at least two meals aboard a flight that long. Long flights can feel endless — you can watch several full movies, only to realize you still have eight hours left of your flight. So you…

This family can't agree who's in the wrong for wrecking a family vacation . At least this dad thinks he's in the right, but he headed to r/AmItheA**hole to get a few opinions. Unfortunately for him, there are a variety of answers, with some commenters blaming him, while others place the blame on his new wife and stepdaughters, and still others who believe everyone is to blame. As u/Positive-Elk-8110 wrote, the issue is that their stepdaughters, age 25 and 28, tried to sabotage the family vacati…

We are in the thick of summer, which means we are also in the thick of seeing everyone's vacation pictures on social media.

There are two kinds of social rules: rules in the regular world and rules at the airport.

I bet this boss really regrets how he treated his employees now that they have some power over him. It doesn't take much to lose someone's faith in you, which this guy realized way too late. During the dark times of 2020, there was possibly no field worse to be in than the travel field. If you're a travel agent , planning and booking vacations for people is your whole career, so when travel suddenly came to a screeching halt, the industry was sunk. If you were in the travel industry at that poi…

They say you should choose your battles in life, but some people love to fight every single battle that comes their way. Maybe it's just the way they were raised, being taught that confrontation will always get you your way. But in reality, treating every minor issue like a huge deal just makes everyone around you roll their eyes. In a story told to the r/EntitledB**** subreddit, u/HBiggle shared a story of a Karen who accosted them while they worked as an attendant on a train. Being a train at…

These vacations to Italy and Hawaii sound incredible, so it's a shame it didn't work out as the vacationers planned. Traveling with your friends always seems like a good idea until it's actually time to go. You really find out who people are when they're under stress, and if you've ever traveled at all, you know that things never go completely as planned. Vacationing, as relaxing as it is, involves a lot of moving parts and planning things in advance. Depending on what you do, the planner has t…

Here's a travel tip for everyone out there: don't upset the airport security staff!

Shoutout to this customer service representative for telling off Karen so beautifully.

This friend really believes in calling dibs, also known as the rule of the land in most situations. If you run to the car faster than anyone else, you get dibs on where you sit, or if you call dibs first on movie night, you get to pick the film. But this friend is calling dibs on something else entirely — the room she's choosing to sleep in during a vacation with her friends . U/yayabanana17 wrote to r/AmItheA**hole to settle an argument. As she explained, the group was planning to travel with…

In recent years, TikTok has become the latest social media app to grow incredibly popular, especially with Gen Z . Unlike the way Instagram is full of carefully curated photos, TikTokers are inclined to make videos about what's on their mind — and they aren't afraid to do some oversharing . Check out these absolutely wild things people share to TikTok. Then, check out this story of an employee who got some malicious compliance on the boss who insisted he get a doctor's note .

A mom is sure she's teaching her daughter the right way to budget money, but her husband and daughter disagree. You have plenty of duties as a parent, and teaching your kids financial literacy is certainly really important to a parent of a young adult, like this OP, whose account has since been deleted. The mom who wrote in to r/AmItheA**hole says that her 24-year-old daughter now needs to pay rent after leaving college . Even though she's only been in a job for a few months, her mom is quite i…

What do you miss most from the days before the internet's glowing screens took up all our time? It turns out that lots of people have things they're nostalgic for! As numerous Twitter users shared , starting with @ThatEricAlper's prompt tweet, people miss everything from getting catalogues in the mail to being harder to get in contact with. I still recall the days of having to travel to a library if I wanted to use a computer. We just didn't have a computer at our house at the time, and cell ph…
