We all want to have the best experience while being out and about, eating at restaurants, and enjoying life. That is why we can all probably recall times when those experiences don't go as planned, and we end up annoyed in certain situations. When going out to eat, for example, you expect the dining experience to provide you with a pleasant service, in which you are greeted a certain way, you get your food in an acceptable amount of time, and overall leave the place feeling content. When one of…

"Pfft, bye Felicia"

We got places to be, lady

What is it about arts and crafts stores that attract the most feral and angry human beings? It's the type of hobby that's supposed to be chill and relaxing… like isn't that the entire point? Why else would you spend your free time knitting scarves and crocheting hats? It's not as if the hobby gives the thrill of high-octane adrenaline-fueled excitement—although, when you think of it, adrenaline sports and hobbies usually are populated by the most chilled people, so maybe there's something to th…

"That was two months ago and he never replied to that email. Today, he called back."

Every business owner had to deal at least once in their career with clients who disappeared without paying for the service they got. Some cases end with a happy ending, with the owner managing to find the client and get them to pay, but other cases remain unsolved, which means the owner never receives the money they were owed. This leads some business owners to find other ways to get back their money's worth, even if it means unleashing their most petty selves. Much like the owner in this Reddi…

Requesting time off from work is kind of a weird ritual. While you're technically “asking” for time off, that time is, is usually less of a “want” and more of a “need”—even though your employer will treat it like the former. It's not as if you can ask your cousin to reschedule their wedding just for you or your entire family to reschedule their family reunion. Still, lots of businesses have periods of high trade where they're exceedingly strict about granting any time off—or there during holida…

“That'd be difficult because there isn't a Justin here.”

Oh, you have to be at the airport in 90 minutes, but you have time for a sit-down meal at a restaurant? Tell me more. Tell me why you think that's a good choice. International flights can cause long lines to get through security---these notoriously take ages to get through. Oh, you're only 25 minutes from the airport? I'm sure there will be no traffic, red lights, or slow drivers to stop you from getting on your flight. Truly, if you decide to have a sit-down meal outside the airport when you h…

Good luck to this guy who's trying to buy a bike . He's clearly not ready to purchase one, as u/BreWanKenobi explained in her malicious compliance story ! Biking is the best: it's a fun, fast, and efficient way to get around. Instead of getting into your car, you can get to your destination while feeling the wind in your hair. Plus, it's much faster than walking, which also just takes longer. It's one of the most universally beloved activities in the world, and basically every country has bikes…

Whenever one hears about a story that features a Karen, it often makes you wonder how these people go about their day, and who are the unfortunate souls that have to deal with them on a daily basis. Most Karens usually have husbands and kids, and they surely are aware of how she behaves in public. So how do they deal with her? Are they just as crazy, or do they know how to calm her down and make her see reason? This Reddit story answers these questions for at least one Karen, and boy were the a…

No, sir, that is not what the tipping jar is for… This entitled male Karen insisted on paying in cash despite not having enough change to pay for his $5.05 ice cream order. So instead of switching to a larger bill, a credit card, or a cancellation of the order, he decided to reach into the tip jar and pull out a nickel. Sure, it was just a nickel and it happened so fast for the store employee that there wasn't much use in stirring up a fuss. Still, it's the principle of the matter. Shoutout to…

There's nothing more infuriating than being stuck in traffic or otherwise stuck in some other horde of slow-moving masses of people. It's claustrophobia inducing and defies your internal logic: you could and should be able to get where you're going faster than this so why can't everyone just get out of your way? Why is everyone else going to the same place at the same time you are? This, of course, is a selfish way to think and act, and most of us know this even when we find ourselves getting f…

Dealing with an endless stream of customer complaints is no way to live your life... Repeatedly pushing that boulder of someone else's problems up to the tip of the hill only for it to roll down again every time the ungrateful person on the other end of the line hangs up. The futility and thanklessness of your efforts is only rewarded by statistics on a screen that you hope are high enough to keep your micromanaging supervisor off your back. Of course, the beauricratic inertia that customers fa…

Some organization's customer service departments are appalling for information to call into. Every time you call in, you're starting from scratch, telling the same story and documenting the same requests until you have the entire thing rehearsed down to a science. I've personally encountered this a few times in the last couple of years and it feels like it's only increasing in frequency with the rise of reliance on automated “AI” customer service systems.. After getting stranded in Houston last…

This person has to do that dreaded annual task: getting his car inspected . If you have a good car, it only takes a few minutes out of your day to get it passed. But if you have a clunker or you've been hearing some suspicious noises as you drive, you may be in for an annoying time. Some people wait last-minute to get their car inspected or do other annual tasks because let's face it, we all have a million things going on in our lives. It seems like some people are better at planning ahead than…
