Customers do not care about what time the store closes , they just want their food. As the employee, you just have to enforce the rules your bosses tell you. If the store closes at 9PM, you have to shut the doors right then, but some customers will still try to squeeze in the door and do a last minute shopping spree. It always surprised me when I worked retail that customers would act like that. I understand the frustration of really needing a product, and then that store locks the door in your…

Don't tell this housekeeper how to do their job . Their boss tried, and it didn't end well. When you do something for long enough, you start to develop shortcuts to make your life easier. Maybe you have a template you use to save time while writing emails if you're at an office job. Or for those in retail, maybe you're super fast at making drinks because you're used to measuring things by sight. You get into a rhythm and try to do your job as quickly and accurately as possible. Enter this emplo…

Karen got exactly what she wanted, just not as quickly as she wanted.

This must be a particularly messy office.

Dirty dishes are the leading cause for roommate breakups.

So when dirty dishes, stinky laundry, and insurmountable mess starts to grow, it can be tough to dig yourself out of it. When you've reached that point of home mayhem, the last thing you need is your mother-in-law coming over and criticizing the house

A long-time housekeeper was used to putting up with her harsh boss, until her boss decided to entirely ignore her wedding day. As a housekeeper for 8 years, this OP was quite experienced putting up with Karens of all kinds. She dealt with Karen clients, as well as her boss, who could be “super rude and snotty." Despite this, the OP didn't mind her boss much of the time – she was just doing what she needed to do to get by. The entire time, she was watching a revolving door of employees, but she…

Choosing to house-share with roommates can be one of the most horrendous life choices you make. The first few weeks are easy peasy, as everyone is on their best behavior. A few months down the line, you're living with completely different people. It's hard to predict who is going to be insufferable, and that is exactly how you end up in this kind of situation. One man lived in an 8 person student house, so there was bound to be some drama. But everyone has their own threshold for how much crazi…

When a couple decides to have children, it's usually an unstated agreement that the children are BOTH adults' responsibility. However, sometimes folks forget that when you rear a human child, it is a ton of work on your own and is a task best suited for both parents to pitch in. Now, when you have 4 kiddos, that is a responsibility that is obviously quadrupled. One working woman and mother of four kids, recently got into a fight with her deadbeat husband about their shared parenting and Reddit…

Cleaning for a 5 year old's birthday party is pushing this couple into a huge fight. This couple has a 5 year old daughter, and they each work between 60-80 hours per week in legal careers.

U/Silas_Of_The_Lambs, the OP, added that his wife needs the place to…

The only thing worse than a messy college apartment is when you have to do all the cleaning.

This must be the plot of either a screwball comedy or a total horror nightmare!

At first, you might read this and assume the husband is ungrateful and wrong, but on second thought, he's actually way too patient for his own good.

The service industry is pretty volatile, as the environment is not exactly a professional one. If you've never had a job in this line of work, let me tell you, you are not missing out. What goes on behind the scenes ain't pretty. For some weird reason, managers in restaurants generally seem to be on some power trip. Their ego quickly outgrows their head, leading to repetitive conflict. u/Dio_bean took to Reddit, sharing his own experience with a terrible manager who instructed him to do a ‘deep…
