Rich people always feel entitled to the servitude of others, but in this story, a construction guy shows his client who has all of the power on this job site.

You step into your boss's office, your heart hammering in your chest. This is gonna be good. Breathe in, breathe out. They'll take it well, you're sure. You say the words, watch your boss's face fall, and realize that they did not, in fact, take it well. Quite the opposite. Oh well, if they take it personally, it's their problem, you think. But then they give you the cold shoulder, act strange, and make it weird for both of you. To each their own… but why? This employee gave their two-week noti…

Whether you're a manager at a retail store or a lunch lady at a middle school, there are days when your time on the clock simply doesn't feel worth it.

Whenever managers are short-staffed, they send a mass text message to every employee begging them to come in and work a shift. But when a hardworking employee asks for one measly day off, all of a sudden their baby eyes and good graces go straight out the window…

Never underestimate your opponent. Whether you're a professional boxer in the ring or an unwitting grocery shopper passing a Girl Scout cookie table, this is an important shred of wisdom to remember. Those Girl Scouts may look cute and naive, but they're plotting to cash in on your underestimation of their formidable wit.

At some point, every ‘dream job’ becomes a nightmare.

Why do new managers always feel like they have something to prove?

There's a difference between being cheap and being frugal.

Unless the issues being raised are completely out of left field and hold no water, an organization should always treat them seriously. Even purely as a means of covering themselves from any legal or operational vulnerabilities. Being dismissive or even retaliatory against a complainant might make the headache or “problem” of them calling attention to it go away, but there's a good chance that their fears coming to fruition and the ensuing grievance will be much more of a headache than dealing w…

Do you remember your first job? You probably washed dishes at a restaurant, stocked shelves in the mall, or scooped ice cream from your local sweets shop. It wasn't glamorous, but every two weeks, your paycheck would come, which (as a teenager) meant that you were rolling in riches! Even if the bottom line on your paystub was only a couple hundred bucks, you felt like a king. Nowadays, a couple hundred bucks doesn't go very far does it?

Although we all put it on our resume, most of us don't work very well under pressure. We may brag about our ability to procrastinate for higher productivity or our ability to get along with pushy management, but truthfully, nobody likes being forced to do something–especially if you have a moronic micromanager garnishing your every move to the point of scrutiny.

Whether you're a computer wiz or technologically challenged, we can all agree that there's one office appliance that has earned the award for ‘Worst Piece of Equipment Ever Made’: The printer.
