These folks have some pretty good reasons that they aren't trusting that random restaurant down the block. Have you ever walked out of a restaurant before even eating? It happens from time to time, but there are plenty of red flags that might give a diner pause before ordering their meal. Up next, read about the reason why one petty teenager was “never asked to babysit again” after getting back at the older cousin who kept having her do way too much cleaning.

The proof is right there...

These HR pros wondered how employees thought they'd get away with their schemes. In this day and age, digital receipts and/or cameras will catch any workplace foolishness! Still, there are a lot of workers out there who just don't seem to care. One of the best stories here is about one creative employee who found a way to avoid working all day every day. Apparently he kept clocking in, disappearing all day, and then leaving at the end of the day. No one could figure out where he was, although h…

Up next, these employees got called to HR for some pretty hilarious reasons, like one worker who sadly recalled that “ I'm not allowed to talk about turtles anymore .”

Some folks need to mind their own business

Doing human resources work isn't always serious. Sometimes, it can be very funny, as the people of the internet will tell you! Though they're sometimes known as the company boogeyman, the human resources department is sometimes needed to step in and sort out employee relations. They have a broad range of job duties, from managing an office to hiring and firing to mediating employee disputes. This can result in some awkwardness at times. As these HR professionals can tell you, it can be very awk…

She gave "cat tax" a whole new meaning!

In case you've never considered it before, yes, you can get fired at your job orientation . It probably makes things easier for the hiring team. Why bother hiring a person who can't even make it through the first few days of the gig? Some people get hired at a job , but they make it clear from day one that they're just utterly uninterested in doing work for even a minute. One guy chose to only work from 10 AM-12 PM each day, which is iconic of him, and I wish him all the best. Another woman bec…

"They have 8-10 people living there with a car for each person so that means more spaces are taken on the street every day..."

Breaking up is hard to do… Just ask these people who were dumped in some awkward and cringeworthy ways, and lived to tell the tale. Not every relationship is meant to last forever. Some romances reach their peak within a few months, and then it's time to find someone else to date who's more suited to you. But you've already invested so much time and energy into this person that you don't want to hurt their feelings. You might think it's too hurtful to tell them you don't think you're a match an…

"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."

"They were being bullies and calling us pathetic, kids are kids, we are the grinch..."

Saying “goodbye and good luck” to a job you can't stand is such an empowering feeling. You know you're on to bigger and better things, while the managers you despise stay behind.

Quitters never win? Yeah, right. In many cases, it's best to quit while you're ahead, as the people who replied to this r/AskReddit question can tell you firsthand. One person requested to hear stories about people who quit with zero advance notice---and why it was the straw that broke the camel's back. For a lot of workers, poor management is often the root cause of their quitting. Employees might spend months resenting their bosses before ever considering quitting. For example, some people wi…

We all have that one coworker who seems like they can do no wrong in the boss's eyes . Maybe they're constantly napping, but the supervisor just cheerfully walks by without noticing. Or maybe they constantly leave work early without an excuse, but the boss couldn't care less. Or, if you're like some of the people who answered u/Virtual-Bunch-9131's query to r/AskReddit , maybe your coworker went to further extremes and still didn't get the boot! It can be totally infuriating to work diligently…

We'll do anything for our pets . We buy them treats and toys, we kiss them and snuggle them, we drive them to the vet or to their favorite places to play. It's so great to have a fuzzy little dude running around your house who loves you like crazy, bites you sometimes, and always wants to cuddle up and hang out with you. However, a lot of landlords don't care how cute your cat, dog, bird, or rabbit is: they're simply not allowed in your apartment. So some people lie to their landlords, insistin…
