These employees were thrilled to dress up for work for one day. Too bad their boss didn't agree with their outfit choices. Workplaces all have different codes for how employees should dress. Many decades ago, people wore suits and ties or nice dresses to their jobs. Everyone dressed like that every day for work, with few exceptions. These days, though, a lot of offices have relaxed their dress codes. With the exception of places like lawyers' offices or doctor's offices, many employees are tota…

In hard times, our worth and value become evident. The way a person handles others in trying circumstances speaks volumes. So, while I don't want to jump the gun, I'm quite sure that I'm a terrible person. There is no patience in me when I'm nervous or angry. The story below is of a front desk worker who unfortunately meets the Karen of the century. The Karen in question enters the room totally oblivious of what is going on. OP, however, doesn't let her insults get to him; instead, he keeps cal…

Welcome to a glimpse into the future of work! In this thread, these 30 employees predict which common workplace practices could become illegal in the near future (and the answers might surprise you!).

If you choose to dedicate a lot of years to a company, it's only fair to expect recognition for your loyalty. Once you hit 10, 20, or even 30 years of experience in your field, if you happen to you find yourself not being treated right despite your extensive loyalty to an employer, there's a good chance that there are other employers out there that will appreciate your skills and dedication.

The minute that your company starts having ‘issues' with payroll it's time to run. Dust off that resume and practice your interview voice because the second that an accounting department starts fumbling your only reason to clock in every day, it may be time to throw up a peace sign and walk out the front door.

You could be the best at your job, yet be so underappreciated that even your most competitive coworker who acts like the office Karen would be on your side. Not given a raise, tossed to the side, the resentment in your belly begins to grow, and 'the grass is greener' thoughts keep popping up in your head. You realize that in order to make yourself indispensable, you need to teach them a lesson… So that your message will be heard loud and clear. This clever, overworked, and underpaid employee de…

Imagine being late for work every single day , and still keeping your position. This guy, Kevin, did exactly that — and as one of his coworkers shared, he had a lot of really strange and irritating habits around the office. “I had the deep misfortune of working with a Kevin for almost 2.5 years,” writes u/aspiriningpugowner. They write that Kevin (a shorthand for extra-goofy people with no common sense) had numerous bad habits that ended up making his coworkers laugh at him. For example, he was…

Working in logistics is an underappreciated job — this person's work wasn't appreciated until everything started going off the rails. When roles switch around in a company, things around bound to slip between the cracks. Especially when there are bosses like this guy, the deputy project manager on an Australian pipeline project. As he stepped in to replace the regular project manager , he didn't quite know who was responsible for which tasks. The OP of this story writes that their regular proje…
