Want to have a good laugh about a shady company getting its comeuppance? Then, boy, did we find the story for you! There's no laugh quite as hearty as one you have reading about a nefarious upper management getting what they deserve. This upper management team started going downhill when a new president was hired . A members-funded woodwork shop in Australia had a very expensive piece of machinery that nobody knew how to use. A couple of employees took it upon themselves to learn and fix up thi…

As every retail employee knows, shoppers change their persona when they walk into a store. Nobody knows how or why, but even the most benevolent people can transform into feral Karens as soon as they walk in front of a store cashier, pillaging the aisles like there's no tomorrow.

One employee sent a scathing resignation email to the entire company after quitting, due to not getting a raise in over three years. Three years is a LONG time. Has this manager not heard of companies paying their employees competitive salaries? Believe it or not, there are actually companies willing to pay their employees well. Some managers simply do not appreciate their team enough, and that leads to quick turnover, which is not the ideal business model, if you know what I mean… When will co…

Kids say the darndest things...

“We are much harder on ourselves. Keep your chin up. It may not have been that bad from their perspective.”

You apply to college, are accepted, graduate, and then you apply and land your ideal job. You have worked your entire life for this moment, and everything appears to be going smoothly, but everything changes when you meet your manager. Everybody has had a horrible management experience once or twice in their life, and if we are being really honest with ourselves, the reason we quit our jobs was because we could not bear to be under such incompetent managers' control any longer. The following st…

And the award for Most Entitled Customer goes to...

Whether we would like to admit it or not, some people have been blessed with endless patience—or at least, what passes for boundless in our minds when we have the patience of a ten-year-old. However, does that suggest that those people are suddenly better than us mortals? No, it does not. It does, however, imply that we still have room for growth. In the story that follows, a displeased waitress talks about having to cope with a continuous flow of rough customers. However, OP explains that she…

Teachers have a lot on their plate. While they're struggling with growing classrooms, more stringent lesson plans, and Karenish moms breathing down their throat, they're essentially expected to raise the next generation of children all on their own– all for measly wages and no 'thank you's. The last thing an overworked teacher needs is a principal demanding busy work from them.

As I get older, it's become clear that some of the things I did when I was younger could be considered a 'mistake'– but in the end, I learned from those failed experiences more than I did my successes. We're human! We all make mistakes. But it's not every day that we're faced with the consequences of a $75k mistake...

Memes that'll find you better than that post-vacation email

This employee is just following directions. If their boss's directions happen to be flawed, well, that's not their problem. You've got to act your wage sometimes. Quality Assurance is one of those processes that separates great products from those that are okay or poor. If you've ever bought a frozen dinner and found a hair in it, and then vowed to never buy from that brand again, you know how important this step is. There are some brands that you know you'll have a positive experience with eve…

It's no secret that minimum wage has been nearly the same for decades, except all of our expenses are getting exponentially higher. Back in the 80's a mom could buy a haul of groceries to feed a family of 4 for a week for $20 and now, couples with only a cat to care for are spending 10x that amount just for basics at Trader Joe's. Hmm… Where did we go wrong here?

First impressions are important in the workplace. If you come off as a quirky weirdo on your first day, it's a tough trope to live down, but innocent awkwardness is to be expected. But sometimes coworkers can sense when someone is more than just a little 'quirky'. In fact, for some new hires, it's pretty clear right off the bat that you're never going to get along… fundamentally. Especially if that dicey, new hire acts like a total creep from the moment they first shake your hand.

Fashion matters. In the workplace, your clothing can reflect more than just your style and can shed light on your position in the office hierarchy as well. Only a deluded person would think that they can score a management position at a marble-floored company while wearing a pair of plaid pajamas in their interview. Even in the digital age, sometimes, you actually need to dress to impress.

It's hard to dislodge CEO's from their position of power. With their ‘friends in high places’ guarding the gates to their job titles, CEOs are almost untouchable. Even with poor job performance, terrible leadership, and a downright inability to do their duties, the only way to really reveal a toxic CEO's incompetence is through the eyes of the shareholders.
