Moving out is a stressful process for anyone, but it can only be made worse when you're leaving on poor terms with your previous landlord. I remember having to leave my first New York apartment for a variety of reasons, one of which was the never-fully-resolved roach infestation issue along with the incessant leaking of our ceiling every time it rained. Despite doing everything in our power to get our property management to take the situation seriously, the conflict was never resolved and could…

Don't mess with college kids.

“That'll do, donkey. That'll do.” Those immortal words spoken by Shrek captured the memorable bond between those two fictional characters, a bond that this homeowner shared with his own emotional support animal, also a loving and loyal donkey.

Funny how some people don't understand that a little kindness and patience can get you a very long way…

“[He left] a note stating if I can't do what was agreed upon he would evict me.”

Why do boomers want the next generations to suffer just as much as they did?

“They will watch you cry as they take away the only thing you have asked for at this job, and then leave early to go work from home that same day.”

Remember that: if you're being pressured to show up early to work, it's time to pull out that contract and advoc…

Coworkers can be a dream or a nightmare, no in-between…

Usually, when someone parks in a handicapped spot, you don't question them. In fact, there are many people with invisible disabilities out there, so even if someone is being really selfish and snagging the handicap spot for themselves, you don't question it. Unless you're this Karen. A family pulled into a parking lot and took the first handicapped spot they saw. As soon as they parked, an angry Karen in the handicapped spot across the way immediately got out of her car and started telling...

This is every customer service rep's worst nightmare. Working the phone lines in customer service is not for the weak. You have angry customers calling in all the time. Maybe it's because it's not handled face-to-face, but customers can be bold over the phone. There are a lot of people who call in to complain and get free stuff from the company, too.

Setting prices as high as you like and hoping that someone will be naive enough to purchase what you are offering is what's so fantastic about the free-market system. However, you might also set an absurdly low price in order to get rid of the item and absolve yourself of any liability in the unlikely event that something goes wrong after the transaction. The parent who purchased a children's suitcase from an online retailer is described in the story below. ahead of an anticipated family holida…
