Mom demands neighbor pay the local 12-year-olds who shoveled 14 inches of snow from her driveway: 'It's only $60'

When a big snowstorm hit the Midwest, a group of teenage boys were ready to tackle the snowfall with their shovels. It's an easy way to make a few bucks for a teenager willing to put in the effort! As these four kids realized, all they needed were shovels. They probably expected that they'd rake in the cash… but they kind of just did things wrong, as u/beaversm26 explained in her story below. She was curious if she was in the wrong for the way she interacted with these teen boys . Maybe they've…

Boss demands employee sell their sports car and buy a new truck for the company, employee firmly refuses, gets fired as a result: 'It's like asking me to sell my child'

Any job that even slightly requires employees to have a car in order to do the job, should physically provide a car for said employees. If you cannot do the job without one, there is no reason why the responsibility of getting a car should be on you. However, because companies today are cheap and will do anything to avoid spending more money, they will never offer that option to employees without being prompted. If there's nothing to stop them, they will even go as far as making employee spend…

Guy gets back at entitled truck driver's incessant honking, giving parking spot to nice old lady instead: '[I] gave the truck nowhere to go'

If you're looking for places where the worst sides of people are bound to come to the surface, look no further than your closest parking lot, where impatience is almost always at an all-time high. Recently, I found myself empathizing with the folks who lose their marbles in these stressful situations as I came to the realization that I had become one of them. We were trying to find a parking spot for my partner's parents, who were visiting for a long weekend. We reserved a space on an app and a…

Mechanic fails to fix customer's car for three months due to being ‘short staffed’, leading to a dispute when customer grows tired of waiting: ‘They hadn't even looked at my car’

Who here hasn't considered selling their car at least once because of all the headache that comes with the burden of owning a car? Not only is it extremely expensive, with gas, insurance, and car treatments, but car issues are probably one of the most annoying and inconvenient things that any car owner has the misfortune of dealing with. Setting aside the money you have to pay to actually get your car fixed, you then have to physically separate from your car while it is at the mechanic for who-…

Entitled driver refuses to comply with neighbor after backing into her car, he drives off without exchanging details, resulting in a legal pursuit: ‘Fine him’

If you stop and really think about the invention of cars, you will realize how crazy and unbelievable these machines truly are. Each of us actually wanders around the world in custom mobile boxes, which we learned to operate when we were 16 years old (well, most of us did). Since we have grown so accustomed to cars and their value to our daily lives, we have also grown to accept the occupational hazards associated with these fabulous machines. Road rage, traffic, and parking feuds are all unfor…

Bystander offers to change struggling woman's tire but she firmly refuses, he pettily changes his own tire in front of her and drives off: ‘So desperate for attention’

No is a full sentence. Even if you mean well and fully plan to help someone else, if they tell you 'no', you just have to respect them and accept it. The response to this Reddit story was split between people who judged the struggling driver's decision to decline the help she was offered, and people who thought this petty act of revenge was actually pretty stupid. So let's back up to explain it properly, and you can tell us who you think is wrong. This man, who is called Luigi in the story, was…

'[He] spent like $20,000 on fidget spinners': 30+ People who let money burn holes in their pockets

Having fun with money is the easy part, but saving it and spending it wisely can take a lifetime to learn. No matter how much money you make , it may never quite seem like enough. There are so many bills to pay! Gas, electric, water, car payment, mortgage, rent, groceries… the list goes on and on. That's why it's nice to have a little treat every now and then, to take away the sting of giving away your hard-earned paycheck to strangers. Maybe you get a $7 latte or a $60 new outfit. However, som…

Entitled truck driver honks at car in front of him for going slightly above the speed limit, cue malicious compliance: 'We both enjoyed the last 80% [of the drive] at the exact speed limit'

Entitled truck driver honks at car in front of him for going slightly above the speed limit, cue malicious compliance: 'We both enjoyed the last 80% [of the drive] at the exact speed limit'

There are some drivers out there who just enjoy honking at the person in front of them for essentially existing. We understand that everyone has bad days, but taking one's frustrations out on the road is never a good idea, and it can backfire in a plethora of ways. For this Redditor , he was driving slightly above the speed limit in a quiet, empty residential area where his speed was the unofficial norm. The truck driver behind him, however, clearly had an issue with his speed and started honki…

Freezing snow shoveler gets ice-cold revenge on audacious neighbor: 'I must have poured about ten gallons of water on his car'

This snow shoveler knows they were being petty towards their neighbor , and they do not care one bit. In some parts of the world, snow days are still quite common. Some storms can dump buckets of the white stuff, leaving people to dig out their cars while their kids build snow forts. Shoveling a driveway or digging your car out can take ages. You have to scrape the snow from the windshield, dig out the tires, scrape the ice from the door handles, and after all that's done, you still need to dig…

34-year-old wife checks 37-year-old husband's dashcam footage, discovers he dumped their "missing" 13-year-old dog: '[He] drove off without her'

If he tries to dump your dog, you better dump him back! As Liz Lemon would say, “That's a dealbreaker, ladies!” This wife was out of town with her 7-year-old daughter while her husband stayed at home to take care of their 13-year-old dog, Ellie. Ellie was old and slow; in other words, she wasn't the kind of dog to just run away. This is why the wife became immediately suspicious when her husband called them to report that Ellie had run off. When she and her daughter returned home, the wife beca…

'Hang up the phone, Karen': Entitled couple brake-checks catering delivery vehicle, blames the driver and tries to get free catering out of it

It's always shocking when people who are so clearly in the wrong forcibly double down on their behavior. Of course, that kind of entitlement among the Karens and Kevins of the world comes as no surprise, and yet to see this kind of audacity unfold in real-time is still a sight to behold. Here, we have an entitled couple that brake-checked a catering delivery vehicle. The driver reported the incident to his supervisor, and the camera footage that was captured clearly showed that the couple was a…

'Hey! You can't park there!': Entitled rich dude assumes delivery man is valet, gives him the keys to his car, backlash ensues

We all know what happens when you assume… This entitled rich guy saw a delivery man at a fancy hotel and assumed he was the valet on hand despite the fact that no one gave him that information and the delivery guy was not even wearing a hotel uniform. Still, assumptions were made and the ensuing consequences were laughable. After the entitled male Karen gave the non-valet guy his keys and left without any time to clear up the confusion, the non-valet knew exactly what to do. He gave the fancy P…

‘I saw red’: Reckless truck driver nearly collides with a family's car, pushing them off the highway, bystander follows driver home and reports him

Unfortunately, we've all encountered an extremely reckless driver at least once. While there is a lot wrong with people like that, the worst of it is that they never seem to comprehend that when they refuse to pay attention to the road around them, they are endangering not only themselves, but everyone around them. If you don't care about your own safety, that is on you, but once you involve other people, you have a responsibility you simply cannot ignore. When I am on the road, it feels me wit…

Entitled ‘small-town rockstar’ demands his band's guitarist drive him to shows, guitarist puts him in his place: ‘Get mommy to take you’

Don't you love it when people act like they are a much bigger deal than they actually are? As if the whole world revolves around them even though all they do is sing in a small-town band nobody knows? That's right, no one likes people like that, and someone has to tell them that, otherwise they would keep wandering around thinking they are entitled to everything and everyone. Luckily, there are good samaritans out there who are willing to put entitled people like these in their place, like the…

'I wasn't "loyal" to this dealership': Car dealership employee quits on the spot after boss's firing joke goes wrong

This dude's former boss had an interesting idea of what loyalty meant. It's an odd query: should you shop where you work ? If you work at a restaurant, would they expect you to eat their food? Or if you work at a clothing store, would your boss be offended if you showed up wearing clothes from a different store? It depends on the workplace, but it's a bit strange to force requirements like this on your employees. I mean, don't show up to your retail job wearing the competitor's clothing… but wh…
