Incompetency is a disease. Get well soon, Karen.

We can all agree that no one likes making a trip to the emergency room. It's highly inconvenient, usually overcrowded, and let's not even get started on the cost. But what's almost just as bad as visiting the emergency room yourself would be the poor workers who have to deal with irritated patients all day long. They are already unhappy to be in your presence, not to mention they are in immense pain (I mean, they are in the emergency room, for crying out loud). And when you're in a lot of pain,…

Kindness can go a long way, but so can pettiness.

Jobs in customer service are never simple. Yet the task is made even harder when a client is trying to take advantage of you in order to earn a fast profit. An employee of customer service recounts his frustrations in the story below. The original poster (OP) has a long history of employment in the hospitality sector. Therefore, he acquired the ability to interact with an extensive selection of people. But after a particularly entitled customer sought a free supper for the third time in a row,…

Need a quick and easy way to stick-it to your mother-in-law? Well, here ya go!

justice = served

Red-eye flights can be brutal, especially if you have a kid kicking the back of your seat and making your experience all the more difficult. When you're getting on a long flight and hoping for at least a good hour of sleep, the likelihood of a smooth, relaxing experience all comes down to your immediate surroundings. Are you stuck in the middle of two inconsiderate strangers? Are you next to a strange and overly talkative person? Is there a screaming child? Here, we have a passenger who was, at…

This dude started neighborhood drama before the new family even moved in officially! These new residents were under contract to buy a house when their male Karen neighbor took the opportunity to build a large fence 10 feet over the property line, using this moment to claim that those 10 feet were always a part of their property to begin with. Now, the new residents are not naive and they knew exactly what this guy was doing. Now, not to defend the wrong guy in this scenario, but if one did want…

Apparently, this entitled neighbor has never heard of the teachings of Sir Isaac Newton…

Every business has a different hierarchical structure that is exclusive to it. The account provided in the story below comes from a former student. The original poster (OP) was a university student majoring in English. During her time as a student, she launched the department newsletter and helped with the editing and publication of the annual literary journal. She significantly improved the newsletter and the magazine, but since she was still viewed as a junior editor, she was expected to perf…

Having a guest in your house can easily feel like a boundary has been crossed, but these house guests really overstayed their welcome. Some of them violated clearly defined rules and regulations, while others made the kinds of unfathomable choices that no host could have predicted. These stories range from entitled mothers-in-law (yes, there were multiple anecdotes about in-laws) who rearranged the kitchen cabinet without permission to visitors who used the laundry machines far too many times u…

Patience is a virtue.

Who doesn't love a good instant karma story? Especially when it's a couple of entitled people who have no concern for others around them. A pair of Karen's, if you will. This entitled couple was waiting in line for airport security. According to the Original Poster (OP), the line wasn't too long, but there was only one employee checking every single person, causing the line to go dreadfully slow. Unfortunately for the OP, he was standing in front of the entitled couple. Every time the line mo...

Homeowner's associations are where infuriating neighbors go to bang together and be infuriating as a collective. That seems to be their one purpose in life: to make everyone else's lives more difficult and more limited. And on top of it all, they just seem to be collective fines and fees as a result of their so-called “enforcement.”

If one wants to hold onto their job and advance in the company, they should treat it seriously. Having said that, do you still owe your manager an explanation of what you are doing and with whom when you are not in the office? The story below is an account of a frustrated employee. The original poster (OP) receives hourly pay for his part-time job at the local gym. At first, everything was going smoothly, and OP was enjoying working with the fitness enthusiasts. However, things took a terrible…
