This lactose and fructose intolerant employee made the grave error of assuming that his office was all cleared out. From that assumption, he thought it'd be chill to rip a few farts, and ended up vastly underestimating the stench of said farts. It gets even worse when his boss ends up coming through when the farts have hit peak stench, and he's being introduced to his new female co-worker in the middle of all this. Yikes all around!

AskReddit users are sharing what kinds of BS they're currently dealing with at work, and you can just feel the frustration in these posts. Nothing like having a boss who doesn't understand time, or one that skims over those days you requested off, and makes you come in anyways. Oh, and shoutout to anyone dealing with a co-worker that cuts their nails at work. What kind of madness is that? Just a little hard to focus with that kind of personal hygiene maintenance going on in the background.
These people screwed up big enough that they thought they'd be fired on the spot, but apparently life isn't as cutthroat as you'd think sometimes. Whether they had an understanding boss, did the right thing, or just straight up weren't caught, these employees lived to work another day.
If HR is doing their job, then they're keeping the moral compass of a company intact and on track. You hope that they're able to shut down all the BS and toxic behavior that crosses the line when it comes to what's acceptable in the workplace environment. This AskReddit thread has people that worked HR or took their complaint to HR, sharing what kind of circumstances inspired the decision. Buckle up.
If you're looking for a little more workplace drama, we recommend checking out the story of this guy taking revenge on his coworker after they played dirty to ruin his promotion. Wonder what HR would have to say about that!
The internet offered up their hot takes on whether or not this VP of Sales is in fact the jerk for firing an employee after their parents died; and the verdict is absolutely. I mean, come on, man. Timing is everything with that shit. Sure it's a cold and cruel world, and business is business, but maybe let things drag on a little bit amidst the life-defining, hard news.

Not sure if our man A.J. Clemente was having a panic attack or something but he managed to let everyone know right into his mic. He even tried to gather himself for a moment but man did that not go well either. After this he was fired and was interviewed on Late Night television. Not sure where he is today though...
Quitting your job on the spot is one thing, but when you and all of your coworkers quit at the same time, that's usually a good indicator that an owner or manager somewhere totally screwed up. There's a whole lot of incompetence out there, and these people only tolerated it for a while before doing a mass exodus. For more stories about bad jobs, here are people who quit on the spot.
Sometimes it feels like work takes up more of our free time than it should, and sadly, not many of us are given an opportunity to actually do anything about it. When this guy's self-titled "boss" told him that he'd have to work on vacation, he figured out a way to get what he wanted and also make it more miserable for the jerk who tried to tell him what to do. Check this out for a story of a guy who got petty email revenge on the company that fired him.
The key thing to note here is that Twitter user @PapaBoardslide, has since clarified that this was a job he quit 2 years ago. This is not a case of mindlessly idiotic self-snitching. Instead, a moment of gloating for a massive past victory. Gotta love when someone uses Photoshop to pull off the win.

A UK steakhouse got some free publicity over the awesome fail of a server who mistakenly served a crazy expensive wine. Seems like a win to be the person who finished dinner and only afterwards realized they drank a bottle of wine that's worth a car. Seriously, each sip of that is worth like 200 dollars. Anyway, it seems like the restaurant was cool about the mistake, so that's nice.
Anyone who's worked on the floor of any kind of store is gonna be reminded of a time when there was a customer they just couldn't deal with. Thank god for the good managers out there. This one is weirdly reminiscent of that old story, The Three Billy Goats Gruff. For a triumphant retail story of someone in customer service who actually got to speak their mind, check out this cashier who told off a Karen and lived.
