Couch surfer refuses to pick up wardrobe from apartment, vindictive roommate takes matters into her own hands: 'It's mine now'

Having a fully grown adult crash on your couch for weeks on end can be wildly frustrating. Sure, it's fine for a night or two. Maybe it's even fine for a week if the circumstances behind the situation have been rough. But if you live in a tiny apartment as is and this person becomes nothing more than an inconvenience, then Houston, we have a problem. Now, what about a couch surfer who stays with you for months and repeatedly trashes your place, only to leave a ton of their belongings behind aft…

‘CEO sends dozens of emails every day’: CEO demands employees responds to all the emails he sends, leading to office dispute when employees can't get any work done other than answering emails

Are you familiar with the saying 'This could have been an email'? For those of you who don't, this saying refers to times when employees are asked to attend a meeting that could have definitely been avoided by simply sending an email about the topic. Well, as much as that saying can be true on some occasions, the amount of useless emails people get from their colleagues is unreal sometimes, and we could all agree that answering them can be the most annoying part of the work day.

'I want my $7!': Guy shorts pizza delivery driver, driver prank calls him incessantly until he gets his money

Here's a friendly reminder to always count how much money they pay you before walking away. This pizza delivery driver learned that the hard way when after parting ways with a customer at a gas station, he realized the customer was $7 under and it was definitely not an accident.

‘Where is your empathy?’: Employee gets fired after his girlfriend breaks up with him in the middle of a shift, coworkers demand manager hires him back

We can't control everything in life, as much as we all like to try. We can do as much in our power to control who are the people we surround ourselves with, what we do for a living, what we do to help others, and more. But there are always going to be things that happen to us that we do not expect, and do not want. The Reddit story down below is a reminder of all that, and it is the perfect example of the balance between the choices we make and the things that we cannot control. The employee in…

Cheap sister-in-law gets caught trying to swap tags during gift exchange, cue petty payback: 'The look on [her] face made me wish we had some reality TV cameras set up for this'

Some people have a knack for giving the worst gifts. For instance, when I turned 10, I received a fairly standard dictionary for my birthday. The following year, I received a pencil holder. Let's just say that one of my parents certainly falls into this category of individuals. As you grow older, you come to learn that this is not a big deal. Gift-giving is simply not everyone's love language. However, what's even worse than being a horrible gift-giver is trying to hide the fact that you're a h…

'I should get a raise, not a pay cut': Boss convinces ex-employee to reclaim her position after they fail to find a replacement, only to later reveal that her paycheck will be less than before

Finding the perfect job is almost an impossible task, but we all go on this impossible pursuit to find the most perfect place of work. For one to actually have the perfect job, there is probably a long list of criteria that the job has to have for it to be the exact right fit - it could depend on location, salary, coworkers, managers, job title, and yes, even the job itself. A place that ticks all of these criteria and probably a lot more is hard to come by… That is why when it comes to a workp…

The line between being a smart and impressive job candidate and being perceived as an entitled person who is hard to work with is very blurred.

'I never learned this, just fail me': 20+ AP test proctors who got the funniest papers to grade

Standardized testing is no fun for students, and yet every year, great importance is heaped upon these tests. It takes time away from actual learning, since teachers are forced to teach to the test instead of highlighting information they want their students to learn. No one really likes these tests, but many kids take AP tests get into colleges or to gain college credits. When I was in high school, our school introduced a new standardized test, even though we already had a few others we also n…
