While planning your potluck dinner , be sure to invite the right friend group! Maybe invite the friends whose homes you've eaten in before, or those who claim to be great cooks already. If you invite the wrong people—the kind who ignore safety protocols or just have zero idea what they're doing in the kitchen—you may wind up giving your whole party food poisoning. You should still invite your friends who can't cook , but just tell them to bring a dessert. That's pretty hard to mess up! Unless y…

Well, we're at work. Now what? Faced with a daunting pile of tasks on our desks, we find ourselves procrastinating, desperate to do anything else to delay our responsibilities. It's a familiar scenario: you sit down on a Monday morning to tackle that project or report, but somehow, you end up scrolling through anything but work. The clock ticks and your to-do list remains untouched, growing more intimidating by the minute. But what if you could transform this procrastination into a brief, refre…

I bet there's a phrase that instantly cracks you up. It's probably just a few words—a reference to a place or a person—that instantly reminds you of a funny situation in your life. When you hear that magic phrase, you'll get the giggles uncontrollably, and if your friends are nearby, good luck trying to stop laughing for the next few hours. Getting the giggles is one of the best feelings in life… unless you happen to be at a funeral, or a play, or a serious wedding speech. You know, one of thos…

No one ever said being an adult is easy, and while we don't want to admit it, our worst habits can get the better of us sometimes. That's where memes come in to make it all a little less shameful! Now, we often associate pie charts with work, school, and data you come across in a news article that doesn't really make much sense. But what if pie charts were used to reflect, capture, and depict all the cringeworthy and embarrassing realities of what it means to be an adult in the modern age? We'r…

Bold is the coworker who calls out, then posts their beach day to their Instagram story. Why people do this baffles the mind. Why would you call out of work sick and then go out on the town, leaving a digital footprint behind you? Or worse still, the person goes out to their own workplace, as if their boss will welcome them with a big smile instead of a writeup . The bosses of Reddit decided to reveal the craziest things that their worst employees ever did in response to u/RoryC's question. The…

Customer service can be really draining sometimes. This employee decides to “give back” to an entitled customer who has a lot to say.

Imagine getting yelled at for simply following directions. This couple walked into a restaurant and headed over to the bar to get some drinks before finding a place to sit. When they walked up, five boomers were standing in a line, waiting for their turn, when there were clearly five open registers. The couple noticed the sign placed directly in the middle of the bar that said, 'Do NOT line up. Just come to a register, and we will help you.' So, the couple followed directions and did just that.…

When you are on vacation, there is no reason whatsoever for you to have to deal with work. Unless your job physically saves lives and makes the world a better place, there is nothing that cannot wait for you when you return from your much-deserved time off, and employers who cannot accept that, do not deserve to even have employees. That is why I am pleased with how this Reddit story turned out because the manager didn't get away with what they did to their employee. OP (original poster) shared…

Nothing frustrates people more than someone else's bad parking job. It's the kind of inconvenience that will make a shy, non-confrontational person snap and become a Karen. It also might be the kind of rare inconvenience that makes a Karen justified in their frustrations. Now, as someone who is admittedly a bad driver, I can understand how a poor parking job happens. That being said, I would never take up two parking spots and just leave it like that. My people-pleasing self would take as much…

You will never believe what people are selling online these days. What can't you buy online? These days, we have the blessing and curse of being able to buy and sell any item you'd ever want, not to mention hundreds of items that nobody in their right mind would ever want. Don't let the Craigslisters of the world hear that, though. They believe that any random garbage found around their house has value. There are people who sell things like 100 packets of hot sauce. There is a person who is, wi…

Sometimes a decision can lead to a very costly mistake, one that could have been avoided if people simply used their heads. Take this manager on Reddit for example, all he had to do was give his devoted temp employee a donut, exactly how he gave the rest of his employees one, and everything else could have been avoided. Why would you want to make someone feel so underappreciated after all the hard work they have put in your firm? What's in it for you? A couple of dollars saved on a donut? Safe…

Being nice to other people can get you really far in life, really fast, all you have to do is treat other people the way that you want to be treated. We're not saying that by simply being nice you will become the next president of The United States, but you can accomplish and get a lot of a respectful attitude towards others. For example, the employee in this Reddit story started her job by acting extremely entitled and demanding. She expected her managers and coworkers to provide her with free…

These legal fights have gotten unbelievably petty. It turns out that you can hire a lawyer to fight for you to get back almost any belonging from your ex, including tiny things like shower curtains or door knobs. Who knew?! Going through a divorce is never ideal, and having to split up your belongings after years of sharing everything can be a lengthy process. The lawyers who replied to u/ChronicWatcher1456's question have some stories to tell… A surprising amount of them have found themselves…

Thanks, I hate it

Rat shoes...

You've more than earned that paid time off!
