As every teacher knows, children can be messy. When kiddos are only half potty-trained and still learning how to be real people, preschool teachers are oftentimes the adult-figures who know exactly what kind of messes these tiny humans can make. In this case, OP knew all too well that preschoolers can make mistakes– sometimes just outside the bathroom.

Behold: one of the greatest examples of malicious compliance ever told. This Grandma's commitment to stubbornness is truly unmatched. Back in the 1950s, things were much different than they are now in almost every way. Back then, stereotypical gender roles were in full force, with women getting married, having lots of children, and running a household while raising the kiddies. Meanwhile, the man of the house would work a job. That's it. But that was considered the men's responsibility. Back th…

You give your boss ample time to find someone to cover your shift when you need time off , but chances are they'll still forget and bug you to do the shift anyway. This person, u/Nannyneedabreak, definitely gets that. In their post to r/AmItheA**hole, this nanny wanted to know if she was wrong for the way her boss was treating her. As she noted, she wanted to go to her sister's wedding, and like a good employee, she gave her boss a ton of notice — seven months notice, in fact! That's plenty gen…

When you're stuck on your flight waiting to take off, it's the perfect time to eavesdrop on the other passengers.

Some managers just don't have the brains or the cells that are supposed to accompany them in order to lead a team. In this case, OP was working in finance, and like many other employees in similar shoes, she was hoping that one day she could get a promotion. Her dream was basically crushed by her boss who told her that if she was gonna have kids in the next few years, there was no way she was getting promoted. First of all, that's very illegal. Second of all, what did her boss expect her to do,…

Family vacations are supposed to be fun for the whole family, not just a few members. But this mother wasn't too concerned about the feelings of the rest of her family, so long as she got a break for herself. Vacations are so great when you're a kid. All you have to do is sit back and enjoy the trip! Your parents will take care of all the planning, booking, transportation, and meals, and you just get to run around the beach or an amusement park to your heart's content. This 23-year-old is reali…

There are too many touch screens, iPad-dependent parents are screw ups, music is too loud, and everyone needs to get the heck off my lawn!

Whatever happened to cleaning up your own mess?

There's nothing worse than unnecessarily rowdy adults at a children's soccer team. Perhaps everyone thinks their child is a star athlete and is under the impression that their little golden goose is going to the big leagues one day. That may be, but for now, chill out Kevin, your boy is 8 and he's picking the grass in the goal. Sit back down and relax.

Military kids can all agree that moving sucks. After packing up your belongings for the 15th time before you even hit 8 years of age, the whole process starts to become numbing and the idea of a forever home becomes more of a fantastical dream than a reality. However, for some army brats, their dreams come true when their parents get stationed in a long term, or even forever, location.

Hats off to this server for making sure this kid's prom night did not go as planned.

One has to wonder what these parents were thinking.

This woman was incensed that a teenager would dare to snowboard around her, but she didn't know who she was speaking to. Snow sports can be a great source of entertainment during the winter months. Instead of being cooped up inside, you can head to a ski slope or mountainous area and strap on your skis or snowboard . It's a wonderful way to get some fresh air, exercise, and adrenaline. Naturally, many trails for snowboarding or skiing are public areas — you have to share the space. This Karen a…

Sometimes the best way to confront a Karen is to give her a taste of her own medicine.

Birthday obsessives are the bane of everyone's existence and we all have that one friend who can't stand it when people don't worship them once a year. Some random childhood trauma created the birthday-obsessed adults that we see today and, even though it's just a regular day marked on the regular calendar, folks get a little crazy about the anniversary of their birth. Like Disney adults, birthday obsessives tend to be emotionally immature...

These folks have secrets — and you can only know them anonymously! Twitter's popular secret confession page , @fesshole, is a prime spot for your average person to confess their darkest secrets. Luckily for the rest of us, we get to take a peek into other people's lives and realize that everyone is hiding some things that we'll never know about otherwise. In this week's selection, one person confessed to being devastated to learn that a colleague was actually just a really polite robot, while a…
