The holiday season might be just around the corner, but this family does not have much to celebrate these days. After the 17-year-old daughter of the family managed to convince her parents to let her go on a trip with some friends, her father mentioned that he would be on a “business trip” in the same city that weekend and could check in on her. Well, it turns out that she needed to be checking in on him because, on the final night of the trip, the Redditor went out to dinner with her friends,…

Fighting fire with fire.

Shopping for the Holidays often brings out the worst in people. This could not be more apparent than on Black Friday. Hopefully, we all survived this tumultuous day by staying home and doing all our holiday shopping online this year like a sane person. However, who can't resist hearing about the crazies who still run amok in retail stores the day after Thanksgiving as if their lives depended on that 40% discount? Here , we have a retail worker who was unfortunately scheduled at the start of Bla…

Sure, confront the person fixing the problem instead of the problem itself. That makes sense!

You can't have it both ways, lady! You can't cheat on your partner and then expect to maintain the life you had before you got caught. Thankfully, this was not a situation where young kids and disputed property were involved, so the separation was easy to make for the Redditor… but not for his now ex-girlfriend. She expected that the original poster (OP) would have the so-called “decency” to keep bankrolling her and her new beau's lifestyle while they get on their feet. As OP makes clear in his…

Getting stuck with bad neighbors is a reality that many of us would never wish upon another person. You move in, hoping for polite waves and the occasional shared snowblower, not a self-appointed BFF who thinks you're their personal handyman. You want to be kind and neighborly, sure, but when the requests start coming in daily—sometimes multiple times a day—it’s a whole different story. And some people take it as even more of an invitation to bug you throughout the day if you work from home. Pe…

Many folks have been traveling this long weekend, which means that the vast majority of these individuals have had to deal with entitled, annoying passengers on various modes of transportation. Sure, this is part of what makes the movie Planes, Trains, and Automobiles stand the test of time because the truth of the matter is that the strangers we come across as we travel to and from family for the Holidays can strongly impact the entire holiday experience. Here, we have a Redditor who was in th…

It's never fun when you have a guest who acts like she's the host. It takes a particular kind of human being to have that mentality during a family gathering, but if there's any event that attracts this type of personality, it's most certainly Thanksgiving. Here , we have an entitled sister-in-law who insisted on making a number of Thanksgiving dishes despite the fact that the Redditor expressed a desire to take the lead, as she was the host after all. On top of this tension going into the day,…

Cook for yourself, then!

This Thanksgiving, make sure your relatives know who's boss. This is not the time of year to let people walk all over you, so if you have to indulge entitled family members who have been nothing but unfriendly to you, you might as well show them that you are not to be messed with anymore. Here , we have a woman who used to be friends with her sister-in-law long before she even dated her future husband. However, once that relationship began, the sister-in-law was never able to give the Redditor…

"The joy as I said, 'No thanks, I'm the manager and I will never book you again.'"

There are some drivers out there who just enjoy honking at the person in front of them for essentially existing. We understand that everyone has bad days, but taking one's frustrations out on the road is never a good idea, and it can backfire in a plethora of ways. For this Redditor , he was driving slightly above the speed limit in a quiet, empty residential area where his speed was the unofficial norm. The truck driver behind him, however, clearly had an issue with his speed and started honki…

Any employee who is only allowed to leave work early with managerial approval knows how great it is when that approval to dip out is granted. Yet somehow, there is always something or someone that gets in the way when those rare blissful moments do happen in the workplace. Here, we have an entitled Karen coworker who was 12 years older than this Redditor and who had a completely different job in the kitchen where they worked. In fact, the Redditor points out that this Karen left early from work…

"Normally, I’d do it my usual way—efficiently and with a bit of common sense."

The audacity of this assistant is insane and maybe a little iconic. Charlotte was a 50-year-old administrative assistant who reported to the CEO of a small company. The CFO was a 27-year-old, and Charlotte was clearly threatened by the age difference. When she was tasked with creating the organizational structure chart, she refused to acknowledge that the 27-year-old, who shared this Reddit thread, was senior to her. Apparently, the CEO refused to back the CFO when this hierarchical conundrum b…

It's about that time of year when visiting one's in-laws is just around the corner. This means bracing yourself for the occasional passive-aggressive remark or awkward encounter. It also means preparing to find excuses to have some alone time and to draw boundaries. You simply cannot be “on” all the time with anyone, especially with family. This entitled Karen , however, was far more intense than your average mother-in-law. She frequently forced her son-in-law to eat food that he couldn't eat,…
