Every so often, you come across a pub with a clever enough sign that, at the very least, makes you consider coming in for a drink. Honestly, the truth is most professional advertising these days does not come close to the wit of these managers, employees, bartenders, etc. who happened to just come up with something clever on the spot. Perhaps making these signs was a creative outlet during their shifts. Or perhaps these folks should be the future of modern advertising and nobody is giving them…

To give us a semblance of control over our own lives, it pays to have a sense of humor. In fact, laughing in the face of your misfortune is sometimes the only way out of it. For those of us working-class folks who like to have a good chuckle, the surest way to do so is to giggle at our own paychecks (because this just HAS to be a joke, right?)

Kick off your work boots and throw your hard hat in the passenger seat of your truck – you've earned a reward after the day you've had

Anyone with neighbors knows how delicate the relationship between the people in the neighborhood is. Not only between those who live next to each other but also between all the different service providers that come to the neighborhood once in a while, like mailmen and delivery workers, street cleaners, etc. To maintain that relationship, you don't have to Love Thy Neighbor, but you do have to have respect for one another, and don't get into each other's business. This Reddit story, was shared b…

Thinking outside the box is this neighbor's specialty. What's the worst thing your neighbor's ever done ? Mine have stolen package after package, knowing they wouldn't get caught in a building with dozens of apartments. Even installing cameras hasn't helped much. Other people have issues with their neighbors parking in front of their houses. Some drivers simply do not care if their massive trucks are blocking the sidewalk. Then there are neighbors who seem to have the cops on speed dial, ready…

According to these people, you don't always have to work hard for your money . On a rare occasion, the money will come right to you. Every now and then, you might stumble across a job that seems just too good to be true. It's good to have a healthy dose of skepticism for things of that nature, but sometimes it really is the real deal. For some jobs, having an employee on standby is the only thing that's required. There's one industry where this is endemic: film and TV. For actors and crew alike…

Every employer has a particular way of doing things, but sometimes their rationale is so illogical that complying becomes nearly impossible. This can be especially true if their methods are only beneficial to them and no one else. To make matters worse, when bosses tend to do this, they also tend to mask their selfish needs as something beneficial to everyone, but little do they know, we all can see right through that nonsense. This teacher was pressured by the head of their department to deliv…

One of the most important qualities of a good boss is their ability to give informational answers to their employee's questions. If they can't, or won't, help the people who work for them so they can become better at what they do, what is even the point in hiring employees? They can go ahead and just do all the work themselves. I hope the boss in this Malicious Compliance Reddit story would learn that she needs her employees just as much as they need her. An employee shared that after she quest…

So many friends turn out to be bridezillas when they get engaged. They want the perfect aesthetics, and you need to bend over backward to make that happen. Entire friendships crumble, as the person you thought you knew, becomes a person you don't want to have anything to do with. This woman was a disabled veteran, and one of her friends asked her to be one of the bridesmaids at her wedding. At first, it was all very exciting, but soon enough, this friend began showing her true colors. OP offere…

This one goes out to all the significant others out there who have to endure their partners' sleep-talking every single night. You folks are the real heroes! Seriously, it's not easy to date a sleep talker. It's almost like dating two different individuals. There's the person you're spending your days with, the person with whom you have fallen in love. And then there's the person they become when you turn off the lights. Yes, it's like dating Gollum. Once your partner is asleep, they might reve…

Sure, people's various passions, interests, and worldviews make them unique individuals, but sometimes it's your specific pet peeves that make you truly stand out. For instance, there are a lot of people in this world who are interested in science fiction movies, but not a lot of people in this world who are annoyed to no end by the breathing patterns of their nearest coworkers. We all would like to think that it's the positive aspects of our personalities that make us special, but we should be…

For some teens, college is the first time they're out on their own, and it really shows. It's the first big step towards independence for many kids. After years of living with their parents, college freshmen suddenly realize they have to fend for themselves. A lot of colleges make this as easy as possible for the new students, especially for those who choose to live in a dorm. There's usually a nice cafeteria where they can get hot meals, and many colleges provide laundry on-site. Plenty of dor…

Every single person in the world had a package misdelivered at some point. It's a right of passage to adulthood, you simply can not argue with that. But, the question of who's at fault when that happens, and who is to blame, is a completely different issue. Well, 99% of the time it's the delivery company's fault, that is why people don't like them. But on some occasions, they actually do a decent job. Like in this Reddit story, in which a post office worker had to deal not only with a Karen, bu…

How many chances should these interviewers have given their candidates? A lot of these interviewers were surprisingly lenient on their interviewees. Going for a job interview is one of those universally scary human experiences. Whether you're 15 or 55, it's still a nerve-wracking endeavor each time. You've got to print out your resumes, read up on the company, iron that business suit, and show up early with a smile on your face. If that seems like just the bare minimum for you, just read these…

There are some questions you just don't ask people in public. But then again, some people have absolutely no filter and don't necessarily take social cues into account when assessing whether or not it's appropriate to inquire about what's on their minds. In theory, these people are unapologetic and entertaining; in practice, they are just extremely uncomfortable to be around, whether it's at a family dinner, on the street, or in a workplace environment. If you ask any of the people on this r/As…

Nobody likes being late for work. First of all, because it is extremely stressful. The entire way to work is a race against time, you keep glancing at the clock like it might make time move slower, and once you get to work you need an extra 10 minutes to relax enough so you'll be able to properly work. Then you also have the impression you want to make on your boss, and being late is never a good look on you. Even so, it happens to everyone and a lot of the time it happens because of things you…
