'You only brought in 21 clients': Cold-caller maliciously complies with boss by extending phone call times

This person made their cold-calling job extra easy with a life hack of sorts. As a cold caller, you're signing up for a job that's both repetitive and competitive. You have to make the same exact sales pitch dozens of times per day, but you can't let the monotony get to you. Instead, you have to convince potential clients to purchase your company's service. For those with the charisma of a salesperson, this job can be great. However, this OP, u/Unashamed_Outrage, writes that they strongly disli…

'My manager insists I turn my camera and mic on': Boss insists employee join video call on their day off, fired-up employee shows up with shocking background

If you're going to call a meeting to order and inconvenience your employees, at least be on time for it. Some people believe that if they're the boss, they're allowed to be late. That's kind of a boss's reality, because everyone has to wait for them to join in before the meeting begins. But it shows your employees that you don't value their time at all. It says to them that you'll show up when you feel like it, but they had better be on time, or else. You can't punish your boss for being late,…

'I spent 2 hours making his life miserable': Dude gets revenge on his roommate for eating his food; terrorizes him at work at the call center with hours of silly prank dials

There are a few rules you simply can't break when living with another person. Do your dishes, don't throw parties at 3AM, and you absolutely, 100% cannot eat their food out of the fridge. The refrigerator is sacred and, as a roommate, you aren't privy to every resource in the house just because you live there. It's not your mommy's house, you can't just eat whatever is in the kitchen.

'Penelope hasn’t answered my calls': Daughter refuses to speak to mother after theater faux pas spoils the show

This mom is taking family participation a bit too far. This woman wrote to r/AmItheA**hole to share her story and ask for people's opinions , but she's definitely not going to like the answers she's receiving in the comments. As the OP, u/Thick-Studio-4277, shared in her post, her daughter Penelope is 12 years old, and she has a spring show that she was performing in. The OP didn't really take this show seriously, which is a big mistake on her part! Preteens take things like that very seriously…

'WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?': Dawn patrol worker who's woken up repeatedly by a drunken ditzy girl with the wrong number gets petty revenge at 4AM when he starts his shift

20 iPhone memes for people who have a cracked screen right now

iPhones are fine and all, but sometimes I think the best age of technology was when people had iPods and Razor phones. Phones/texting and music used to be in separate places (but today's kids don't know about that…just kidding, we all know you can Google anything in .5 seconds). Or, there was the intriguing mid-2000s era when we had green iPod nanos and cell phones with a slide-out keyboard, which gave us a lot of quirky looking flip phones. Technology seemed so exciting back then! Today, we ha…
