She asked for honesty, and honesty is what she received.

C-level management seems to forget that their ‘family’ of employees is really only working so they can get that money bag every two weeks. Despite their lofty claims that everyone's on the same team and needs to reach company goals, a lot of workers are starting to refuse to do more work unless they're financially compensated– as it should be!

'You gotta risk it to get the biscuit' may be one of the greatest tropes of all time for risk-takers, go-getters, and people who are known for absolutely sending it. Like the football legends of yore, skydivers on their first solo flight, or the self-proclaimed ‘disruptors’ of the world, this phrase is a basically a commandment. However, what is the proverbial 'biscuit' even worth these days? Is it worth your life?

This guy's boss really entered his villain era, didn't he?

There's a silent code of conduct people should have with their neighboring coworkers, and when someone breaks that code of conduct, things are bound to become toxic very quickly. Surprisingly enough, there are countless ways in which coworkers can break said code of conduct. Just check out this r/AskReddit thread for your reference. Some of these coworkers should not only be fired for their behavior, but also they should be barred from ever being able to walk into a collaborative work environme…

“Red flags start appearing from the very first minute I arrive,” this employee wrote in one jaw-dropping workplace story.

After a lifetime of being told that “It's not personal” and "It's just business" it's surprising how personal employers take a resignation, finally coming face to face with a situation where they're not in control.

No matter what you're doing on that work laptop, your boss definitely knows about it . Take that as a word of warning if you're up to shady business or thinking about applying to other jobs on your office computer! In the days before cameras were plastered everywhere, you probably could get away with a lot. But as the bosses who commented below know, even without cameras, they have eyes in the back of their heads. The walls have ears! As one boss mentioned, they can hear everything their employ…

There is a difference between working your hardest and only working. Life is all about balance and that especially goes for any career you're chasing. You will never be happy if you make your entire life about your job, just like you will not be happy if you make your entire life about your partner or your hobby or whatever. Us humans need balance. Work-life balance is extremely important. It's not only essential for mental health, but it is also essential in being a great employee. If you make…

Slacker people like to hide behind their perceived shortcomings in order to validate their lack of work ethic. The biggest problem with that is that they are immediately discrediting other hard working folks in the same situation, while making themselves a pity case for everyone around them. In this story, one slacker employee found refuge in her workplace by playing the ‘single mother' card, using the same excuse for every one of her deficiencies as an employee and a coworker.

Thank goodness this employee had a strong enough backbone to stand up to his boss. Otherwise it truly would have resulted in calamity. On the subreddit r/StoriesAboutKevin, u/alas_vikn has been sharing stories of their hilariously clueless boss, Kevina. Check out part one of the OP's hilarious office stories here , if you haven't read about the time this boss tried to clean a computer. As the OP explained, they've been referring to their workplaces as “The Flintstone Chronicles,” mainly because…

We've all had the experience of being overlooked by an employer.

It's fair to say most people wouldn't want their bosses to know what they buy online in their personal life. Even if you're buying the most innocuous things like cleaning supplies or a new set of plates, it would just be an icky feeling if someone else had access to your Amazon account . This boss does have access to their former employee's Amazon account , meaning they can see all the addresses the employee sends things to, what she's bought before, and even what's in her wish list and her car…

There are so many things this coworker could have done to avoid these consequences.

When you receive an offer from a new employer, you may be incentivized to approach your current employer and see if they'll match the offer. After all—as we often discuss, your current employment is a known entity, and so it will often seem preferable to stay in the comforts of the known—rather than branch out into the unknown of the new role that is being offered. Usually, your current employer will come back with what they can reasonably offer, seeking to match the offer you've received. It's…

We sincerely hope this employee doesn't fall for his boss's desperate shenanigans.
