Who hasn't messed up an interview before? I'm sure we can all agree that everything is a learning experience, and sometimes you have to learn by making mistakes. We all know that mistakes can build character, blah blah blah, but really? If I could go back, I would erase all the mistakes I made in job interviews. I don't think those mistakes led me to where I am today. I think that this line of thinking borders on delusional. The truth is that sometimes, you don't think before you speak and you…

Discovering a loophole is like unlocking one of life's top secrets. You have to be extra careful about who you share this secret with; otherwise, the fun will be ruined for all involved. In theory, adulting is about being so on top of things that you don't need to find loopholes to get free stuff. In practice, though, adulting is very much about being that savvy. As someone who hopes to remain a part of his family's Netflix household for as long as possible until I am discovered, I am always lo…

We understand that phone-free zones are, in theory, a productive idea to help save chronically online folks like myself, but in practice, these policies never work. At a certain point, one has to wonder to what extent it's worth it to keep on enforcing silly rules like this given that people will always find a way to circumnavigate those rules or, if they do comply, they are not going to have a fun time doing it. On top of that, the reality is that in this day and age, you genuinely need access…

That was a common theme on this absolutely hilarious question posed by u/Abrera: “911 Operators of Reddit, what are some of the funniest things someone has called in for?” These emergency line workers have a serious job. Helping people in their most critical moments is crucial, and someone has to do it. It must be a huge relief to get a few calls like the ones below. If you're helping injured pe…

Here's a friendly reminder that when you approach someone at a bar with a bold pickup line, chances are there is at least one other person who is hearing everything you say: your bartender. If this list serves one productive function in this world, let it be something that motivates you to always tip your bartenders generously because you know they have to hear a ton of nonsense on the job from singletons attempting to flirt. Sometimes, as these folks from r/AskReddit shared, people were trying…

Common sense is not as common as you'd think.

The wonderful world of relatable adulting memes can sometimes hit a bit too close to home. Sure, it can be occasionally comforting to know that something you do all the time isn't the weirdest thing in the world. Sure, it can be occasionally comforting to know that “you're not alone,” or whatever. But the truth is that realization is comforting only to a certain extent. Sometimes, you come across a so-called relatable meme that is so insanely specific that you feel like someone must be filming…

You can never exactly predict when and how karma is going to strike. Sometimes, the people who deserve it the most get off easy (for now). But when karma does come into play, the results can be glorious. I'll never forget the time I had a friend who was so insistent that their wedding would happen the way they wanted it to that despite the forecast of good weather, it started to downpour during their outdoor wedding ceremony. It was the kind of climactic situation no one could have predicted (a…

Shouldn't animal control have been able to shut down this Karen duo? The fact that they were able to intimidate animal control into enforcing a fine that would have otherwise just been a warning says a lot more about the fragile authority of animal control than anything else. Now, personally speaking, I could not live right next to someone who keeps a dozen chickens and who always is having problems with those chickens because of raccoons and other animal attacks. That is not exactly my neighbo…

Siblings, you can't live with them, and you can't live without them. As a sister, I can attest to the various obstacles one might encounter when dealing with a sibling. I would never let anyone hurt my precious baby brother, but I do get a kick out of annoying the heck out of him. One person took some sweet revenge on his younger brother. The story begins with an account of a frustrated older brother who has reached his breaking point. The brother takes matters into his own hands and decides to…

Maybe you aren't brave enough to share what happened on your worst day of work , but these anonymous workers are. At any company, the big bosses have to allow some room for mistakes. There will always be human errors as long as humans are employed. For many people, when they mess something up, their immediate reaction is to try and hide it from their boss. It seems like that worked out in some cases for these employees! What your manager doesn't know won't hurt them (as long as they don't find…

These pranksters are next-level . The best kinds of pranks are the ones that leave every participant laughing and smiling at the end. There are way too many social media pranksters these days who want to bother pedestrians or make mockeries of their friends. A lot of it feels mean-spirited, but it doesn't have to be that way. Why not prank someone the way a bunch of these guys did? They only ordered one milkshake at a restaurant, even though there were a bunch of people at their table. But then…

Grandparents are the best. They'll do anything for their grandkids , like buying them way too many toys, cooking delicious meals for them, and being their favorite playmate. Many kids grow up having their grandparents as babysitters, which creates a strong bond between them. These grandparents want to keep in touch with their grandkids , even once the kids turn into teens. But fear not, they aren't afraid to utilize technology to connect with their family.
