'You need to leave': Customer gets kicked out of a bar after he asked an entitled woman to remove her service dog from the bar top

When a fight between two customers breaks out in a place like a restaurant or a bar, there are a few ways in which that scenario could end. Either both customers get kicked out, one of them gets kicked out, or none of them. In my time as a waitress, I had to ask a few customers to leave the restaurant, and it was never a pleasant experience. Most people just won't accept that they are in the wrong, no matter how much you try to calmly explain to them what is the problem. This Reddit story is ac…

'Get your greasy hands off my desk': Woman confronts coworker who keeps eating his lunch at her desk ruining important documents

A pleasant workplace environment and a good relationship with your coworkers are some of the most important things you need in a job. Think about it, you see these people for at least 8 hours, every day, 4 to 5 days a week. It won't be an exaggeration to say you spend more time with them than you do with your own family. If you don't get along, it can really affect not only your work but your personal happiness. The woman in this Reddit story has to deal with pretty unfriendly people in her off…

'I'm just going to Google it': 15+ patients share the craziest things doctors have said to their faces

'I'm just going to Google it': 15+ patients share the craziest things doctors have said to their faces

No one ever said your doctor couldn't also have a sense of humor. In fact, while some people might find jokes to be unwelcome in a hospital environment, others may find that in appropriate circumstances, jokes can be comforting. Perhaps the right kind of bedside manner is a personal preference at the end of the day. Personally speaking, I will go to any doctor's appointment with more pent-up anxiety than anyone else in the waiting room. If my doctor isn't going to crack a joke to break the ice,…

'She couldn't speak for hours': Student cleverly finds a way to get back at school bully

Who wouldn't love to get a chance to get back at the people who were mean to them when they were kids? It is unbelievable sometimes, how mean kids can be to one another, and to think about how they learned to act like that, and why. But still, as adults, you keep reminding yourself that those are just children, and you should take anything they do in perspective, even if they are behaving unkindly. Having said that, I would have loved to get a chance to get back at some of the people who made m…

'[He] cost the company over $220k': Catalog designer lets boss sign off on un-mailable catalogs

This is what happens when you don't pay attention . It was an expensive (and probably humiliating) lesson for one boss to learn. This person had a really cool job back in the 1980s . It was a whole different world back then. In the era before the internet was widely available, advertisements would often come in the mail. Sometimes, they would take the form of catalogs. Toy catalogs were a staple of many kids' childhoods---it was fun to grab a marker and start circling all the toys you wanted as…

'My Yorkie stole an entire block of cheese': 20 Pet owners share the worst things their furry friends have ever done

These pets have been on their baddest behavior, and they have no regrets about it! Some pets are just blatantly naughty, and they don't care who knows it. Lots of cats are this way: they'll solemnly knock glasses to the floor, zoom around your home knocking furniture over, or leave unsavory “gifts” for their owners to find.

'I stood in blizzard conditions ': Guy abandons his girlfriend in a snowstorm, refuses to pick her up from work

'I stood in blizzard conditions': Guy abandons his girlfriend in a snowstorm, refuses to pick her up from work

Being someone's boyfriend does not necessarily mean picking them up from work during a snowstorm. There are certain times in life when it's every person for themselves, and this was clearly one of those times. The funniest part of the story here is that the girlfriend, who shared this post via Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit, showed her cards when she mentioned that there was near zero visibility during the storm. So honestly, was she really expecting him to drive in the middle of that? Sorr…

'Everyone's faces shifted... to laughter': Call center boss tells employees to hang up on customers

'Everyone's faces shifted... to laughter': Call center boss tells employees to hang up on customers

This call center boss is really tired of metrics. At many companies, it's clear that leadership values the numbers over their customers and employees. The numbers don't lie, after all, but just looking at the numbers in a vacuum isn't always enough. This place is a great example of that. Some higher-ups who have probably never even talked to their employees looked at their call times. They decided that the calls were taking too long. Why that would be an issue at a call center is beyond me. I m…

'The best customers I've had in weeks were kids': Longtime servers share memorable moments of kids outshining the adults as ideal customers

Kids get a bad reputation in the service industry. However, anyone who has ever worked at a family restaurant know the truth—it's always the parents. Kids will be kids, we all know that, and it's up to the parents or guardians to teach their kids how to behave. So when an adult allows their tiny human to run around a restaurant like it's their personal playroom, of course everyone working there is going to be annoyed. Other than the fact that it's a real danger for your kid to be doing that whi…

'We have decided to grant you two days': Anonymous neighbor group pens note protesting decorative plants

A group of 14 neighbors apparently banded together to write an unintentionally funny note . There's at least one person in this neighborhood who is absolutely incensed over fake plants . Fake plants are optimal for people who are constantly forgetting to water their plants, or just don't want the responsibilities of watering them all the time. Other people just like the look of plants that appear bright and blooming year-round. Not to mention that many fake plants really do look like the real t…

'They were trying to peel eggs with a vegetable peeler': 40+ People who were stumped by common household items

These problem-solvers got creative with their kitchen gadgets and random objects. At least they're keeping everyone around them in fits of giggles. No two households are the same, so the things you find normal will be foreign to someone else. Even something as simple as operating a can opener or a toaster can be confusing at another person's house . Maybe one of the most common ones in my experience is trying to figure out how to work someone else's shower. You don't want to push, pull, or turn…

These kids are in for a surprising awakening after a lifetime of being sheltered. For lots of wealthy kids , money has almost no real-world meaning to them until they're out on their own. Some show up to their first days of college and wonder why their laundry isn't being magically done for them, or why they have to make their own food for each and every meal. A lot of them just don't understand the value of money. As Lucille Bluth says in Arrested Development , “I mean, it's one banana, Michae…

The story that follows is an account of a clever customer who is tired of being inconvenienced by customer service representatives.

'Water pipe burst [...] and soaked ALL of the spare toilet paper': 15+ cruise ship fiascos passengers never found out about

There is a reason why some people refuse to go on cruise ships. Perhaps these folks are suspicious about what's happening behind the scenes. Perhaps there's a fear of a Jack and Rose Titanic moment. Perhaps these tourists simply have better things to do with their vacation money. For the folks who never trusted cruise ships for a second, this thread, which was posted to the r/AskReddit subreddit, will likely confirm their suspicions. From water pipes bursting to lice infestation to live enterta…
