While many of us are ashamed of what we would spend to have a minimum wage employee deliver takeout straight to our door during a summer thunderstorm, most of us will happily go online to feed ourselves out of convenience, spending far more for a pizza than any person should.

When you are on vacation, there is no reason whatsoever for you to have to deal with work. Unless your job physically saves lives and makes the world a better place, there is nothing that cannot wait for you when you return from your much-deserved time off, and employers who cannot accept that, do not deserve to even have employees. That is why I am pleased with how this Reddit story turned out because the manager didn't get away with what they did to their employee. OP (original poster) shared…

Walk a mile in these non-slip shoes

Sometimes a decision can lead to a very costly mistake, one that could have been avoided if people simply used their heads. Take this manager on Reddit for example, all he had to do was give his devoted temp employee a donut, exactly how he gave the rest of his employees one, and everything else could have been avoided. Why would you want to make someone feel so underappreciated after all the hard work they have put in your firm? What's in it for you? A couple of dollars saved on a donut? Safe…

Being nice to other people can get you really far in life, really fast, all you have to do is treat other people the way that you want to be treated. We're not saying that by simply being nice you will become the next president of The United States, but you can accomplish and get a lot of a respectful attitude towards others. For example, the employee in this Reddit story started her job by acting extremely entitled and demanding. She expected her managers and coworkers to provide her with free…

There is nothing more satisfying than reading a story about an employee who stands up to the corporation when it tries to do them wrong. And this Reddit story is, well, not quite that. OP (original poster), got an email from the company she works for asking her to accept a pay cut to her salary, and after careful consideration, OP decided to give the company a piece of her mind regarding their request. She answers the email with a sharp and criticizing response, airing out everything she thinks…

Naturally, being told you're receiving a bonus at work is extremely exciting. Anytime you are gifted money for recognition of your hard work and dedication, it is a pleasant surprise and a cause for celebration. But after reading this story, you might want to wait to for physical evidence of that bonus before you go off celebrating and spending it all. This employee from the accounting department decided to play a cruel joke on his coworkers by informing them that they were receiving...

This dude decided to buy a car part used, but it seems like he has zero idea what he's actually doing. Getting used car parts from a junkyard or an auto salvage can be a great way to save a few dollars. A lot of car enthusiasts do this routinely to save money. Next up, these employees shared the biggest, most outrageous mistakes they've ever made in the workplace, like one person who mixed some cleaning chemicals togehter, meaning “[We] had to evacuate the restaurant .”

“For anyone out there that thinks [working in a casino] would be a great job, well, I can tell you right now it's not as glamorous as it seems—especially when you are working in the kitchen.”

Every job candidate out there should approach interviews with the mentality that employers need employees just as much as employees need employment, it is a two-way street. The interview process is a test for the employer no less than it is for the candidate, as they both are there to see if the place of work could be a match. There is no reason an employer should not treat their candidates with as much respect as they expect to be treated themselves. Which is why I think the job candidate in t…

It sounds like this boss isn't going to have his job for much longer. These hourly employees work for a nonprofit where they do manual labor outside all day long. Their boss announced to them that they all were being promoted to salaried employees, and the team couldn't have been more excited . Who wouldn't be happy about a promotion? Being salaried means you can finally take PTO time without the guilt of taking a day off for yourself and being unpaid. That's a huge win for the OP (Original Pos…

When you start working in a new industry that you never worked in before, you inevitably begin learning how those industries actually work, and how little you knew about it as a customer. It is surprising how much information companies try to keep from their customers even though that information can often be extremely beneficial for them and sometimes even life-changing. That is why, once one starts working in a new industry and learns some tricks and hacks, they should share that information…

You've more than earned that paid time off!

This entitled boss got the karma she deserved. She spent most of her time bragging to her hourly employees about how rich she is, including being upset that her 3.5 million dollar house 'only' sold for 3.3 million, complaining that her daughter totaled her luxury car only to buy her a brand new one immediately, and so on. Well, the OP (original poster) worked as a chef at her fancy restaurant. He was struggling financially, as he and his girlfriend lived in a small apartment and were expecting…

At least you're better at your job than these guys

Working in the notoriously ruthless corporate world, you need a manager who is supportive and caring and who will always look out for your best interests. The story that follows tells the tale of a clever worker. The narrative of what happened to one of his close friends is told by the original poster (OP). The friend has worked at the same company for a long time. Before the trend of hybrid work, the friend's boss allowed the staff to work five days a month in the office and the rest of the we…
