Having fun with money is the easy part, but saving it and spending it wisely can take a lifetime to learn. No matter how much money you make , it may never quite seem like enough. There are so many bills to pay! Gas, electric, water, car payment, mortgage, rent, groceries… the list goes on and on. That's why it's nice to have a little treat every now and then, to take away the sting of giving away your hard-earned paycheck to strangers. Maybe you get a $7 latte or a $60 new outfit. However, som…

Sometimes, the prices really are too good to be true. Now that we're in gift-purchasing season—you know, that time of year when you suddenly remember that you actually do not have sufficient funds to make everyone's holiday dreams come true—it's time to take a look at the times people thought they found the perfect gift online… and well, it didn't turn out as they had hoped. Perhaps these customers didn't scan the online reviews or perhaps they failed to select the right size. Or perhaps they w…

Some class rules are meant to be challenged. In this day and age, it's simply most convenient for students to take notes on their laptops. While of course, we understand the concern teachers may have about playing games, texting, or online shopping, the truth of the matter is that if students aren't going to pay attention, that will be their loss both in the short and long term. Forbidding all students from using their laptops in class because of a few students who cannot help but misbehave is…

Much like breaking off a relationship with a romantic partner, when you decide to leave your place of work, there are bound to be lasting feelings that remain once you leave. Good or bad, you had a relationship with the people at your workplace, your coworkers and boss, and leaving them also means leaving with an impact. Sometimes, similarly to a romantic relationship, that impact may inspire people to take action, just like an ex who decided to call their former loved one. In our case, the for…

If you ever got fired from a job you knew you did so well, you must have had this one thought cross your mind – ‘Fools, they made the mistake of their lives'. Meaning, as you leave the job, you know they will regret letting you go when they see just how much work isn't getting done without you. The best thing that can happen to you in this scenario, is for them to eventually crawl back on all fours, and beg you to take your job back. Sure, it is quite unlikely that something like this would hap…

Not everyone is great at public speaking. Most people have messed up at least once during a speech, presentation, or interview. Common mistakes include getting facts wrong, mispronouncing someone's name, or losing one's train of thought. However, you do not necessarily see a college student accidentally referring to their much older professor as “daddy” as a common mistake. This college student was mortified when she realized that she had just addressed her professor as her father when she was…

RTS stands for 'Revenge Through Shredder'

If your boss is making you grind your teeth, you're in good company. The people of the internet joined together to share the reasons why their boss has been getting on their last nerves , and there are some crazy stories out there! Some people have bosses who just don't appreciate a single thing they do . The boss is so focused on meeting their goals or delivering a project to a client that they don't acknowledge all the hard work it takes to make that happen. It can be so frustrating to work a…

Let this list serve as an unfortunate reminder that far too many people in this world do not think before they text, post, or send. Whether it's a message to a friend, a social media announcement, or an email to an employer, one would think that every semi-intelligent adult would consider checking their spelling before making their point. However, it seems that we're not dealing with semi-intelligent people here. This compilation of misspellings ranges from someone who posted their “alphet” fro…

Now that Thanksgiving is around the corner, it's time to prepare yourself for some dad jokes. Perhaps your father is inclined to make the cheesiest, most cringeworthy remarks around the dinner table every year. If that's the case, then you need to start bracing yourselves now (mentally, emotionally, and spiritually). Or perhaps you're the Dad in this situation, and you're looking for some new jokes you found online to recite as your own to your kids with the hopes of earning even the slightest…

No, you can't return an item to the store if you didn't bring the item with you. Even if you promise to bring it back later, because you just forgot it as you were running out the door, you can't have a refund. Still, some customers will try to argue that they should be allowed to do so! It makes sense in their mind, so they think that it should be permitted. This isn't even the dumbest question that the retail workers of the world have fielded from their customers! Even after taking a company…

These folks have some pretty good reasons that they aren't trusting that random restaurant down the block. Have you ever walked out of a restaurant before even eating? It happens from time to time, but there are plenty of red flags that might give a diner pause before ordering their meal. Up next, read about the reason why one petty teenager was “never asked to babysit again” after getting back at the older cousin who kept having her do way too much cleaning.

Are you even a real family if you DON'T have at least one argument during Thanksgiving dinner?

These HR pros wondered how employees thought they'd get away with their schemes. In this day and age, digital receipts and/or cameras will catch any workplace foolishness! Still, there are a lot of workers out there who just don't seem to care. One of the best stories here is about one creative employee who found a way to avoid working all day every day. Apparently he kept clocking in, disappearing all day, and then leaving at the end of the day. No one could figure out where he was, although h…

Time to give those Sunday scaries a run for their money (or at least try our best).

In a matter of days, one dude has gone from a smug BF to a single guy whose coworkers won't stop making fun of him. These days, the internet often leeches into the real world, bringing consequences along with it. Even when you want to remain anonymous online, it can be difficult to do that. You can post anonymously, but there are no rules stopping people from screenshotting your post and sharing it with anyone they want to. This is especially obvious when posts gain a lot of buzz, just like thi…
