As someone who has worked many years in the service industry let me tell you, when an unruly customer gets what's coming to them, it is the most satisfying feeling in the world. Service industry jobs are usually low pay, you're running around on your feet all day, and you have to deal with the most entitled customers. It's not always like that! Sometimes you have great regulars and a fantastic team. But, unfortunately, those more annoying events are more common. The longer you work in the servi…

Ring ring! The 1980s called, they want their fax machines back… Seriously, who has a fax machine anymore? When is the last time you had to fax something? Now we have encrypted emails for private mailing, etc. Faxing? Come on, grandpa. Welcome to the 21st century. Everybody knows that faxing is antiquated. So why did this one company, as told by an ex-employee on Reddit, require employees to fax their timesheets in if they wanted to get paid on time? Sure, OP says this was in 2014, but even by t…

We should really listen to our youth, because sometimes adults learn helpful life lessons from children. For example, an entitled adult who thinks it's okay to treat kids with zero kindness because they're older and “more mature” has a very harsh lesson to learn. You can't be a grown person and act like it's okay to treat everyone around you like you're better than them. Come on, we live in a society, man. Grow up. This story comes from a '90s kid. This millennial was doing what young kids did…

‘Had he shown even the slightest remorse…': Karma comes for roadrage-filled contractor who gets his business reported by guy he

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…

Oh in-laws, aren't they just a couple of peaches? Sarcasm aside, they can truly be great people to enter your life, but the stories we find about them on the internet are often the opposite of that. Sometimes, monster-in-laws are a real life terror. Not always! But sometimes… For example, this Reddit story of a monster mother-in-law. This woman, before coming out and divorcing her than husband, had a mother-in-law who was her frenemy. the mother-in-law would present OP with fake pleasantries an…

Isn't it wonderful when something that feels like an awful situation actually turns into something beautiful? That's exactly what happened to this young blue collar worker . He was no more than 18 years old and started working construction. As a newbie in many ways, the older and more senior coworkers would pick on him. One guy straight up would steal his food right in front of his face like a high school bully and even asked him, “what're you gonna do about it?!” As retaliation, he did the cla…

It's that time of the year again, everybody! When you work at a place that needs to keep running during the holidays. This can include the service industry, retail, and even tech! Bet you have never even thought about how sight security and coding needs to continue smoothly even during the holidays. That means employees are trading shifts left and right to try and get a day off to spend with their loved ones. Most places you can just discuss it like adults amongst your coworkers and figure out…

Calling all siblings, this one is a familiar burn. Parents, partners, and besties are supposed to take the high road, but siblings get a pass to the low road. If you're a sibling, you get what I mean. Nobody can talk badly to your sister or brother, that is YOUR job. If you need to teach your sibling a lesson and fight fire with fire, then light it up! Because nobody else is allowed to do that. In this story, however, things may or may not have gone too far… The sisters were prone to squabbling…

Karma is a beast. What goes around, certainly comes back around one day. For those of us who have ever dealt with a coworker's bad behavior– whether they're bad mouthing other employees, stealing lunches from the communal fridge, or just generally being a narc –it's rewarding to see them fall from graces a bit.

Instant karma, just how we like it. So there's this dude behind the bar, serving up drinks for a massive party of around 400 people. And if that ain't stressful enough, in walks the grumpy host who's been acting like a total snob from the moment he strutted in. He's all about having things his way, and he's got zero faith in our poor bartender's ability to do his literal job. Our bartender is seething on the inside, but the guy's paying the bills, so he keeps it cool. To make matters worse, the…

Public transportation has a whole myriad of unspoken rules. For those of you who are too privileged to ever hop onto a bus, train, or subway, read no further, because the nuances of the transportation methods of the huddled masses will go right over your head.

Entitled and self-serving people flouting simple rules and common courtesies rarely go unchecked. While you might wish that karma would intervene, it's important to keep in mind that any time you come into contact with someone who is behaving in an unpredictable or antisocial way, the best thing you can do is not engage with them for your own safety.

Karma has a personal vendetta

These people believe that karma had their back, with instant results.

Get ready for a short and sweet story that perfectly captures the essence of satisfying karma. We all know about infamous Karens. It's not a a specific person named Karen anymore, Karen is a state of being that is pure villainous. Karens throw tantrums when they don't get their way and are entitled and narcissistic. Karens seem to perpetually be stuck in their terrible twos. A guy who encountered a Karen in a Wawa parking lot decided to dish her a steaming hot plate of her own recipe . He was p…
