"I had to ask him last fall nicely to remove all the leaves he blew up against my house for an entire winter and then he took that as permission to trespass and blow leaves around my entire house."

Grandpa and his grandkid have an interesting way to get rid of excess leaves , but not everyone is sold on their methods. On the internet, things are never as straightforward as they might seem. One person's wholesome story quickly turns into a debate in the comments section. Did they actually do the right thing, or was it reckless? That's what people were debating after reading u/throwaway1999000's tale of bonding with their grandfather. The debate has to do with the way this person's grandfat…

These parents were hoping their kid could provide them with a pristine lawn . It's a goal that many suburban and rural homeowners spend a great deal of time thinking about. People love to have a perfect lawn: it makes their whole property look well-kept and cared about. But it takes a ton of upkeep, especially for those with a huge property or tons of trees or plants that also need to be maintained. At least if you're a couple with older kids, you can have them help with the yardwork. You can h…

Big companies can get away with inhumane injustices simply because they have the sharkiest lawyers on retainer waiting to crush the opposition. Employees are only a tiny bug carcass on the windshield of massive corporations, so when the little guy attempts to stand up to them, all businesses need to do is blast the wiper fluid and brush away their problems.

Isn't it annoying when you get asked to do something that is NOT in your job title without anything in return? If it's not part of your role, and you're not really getting paid for it, then why do it? I don't mean people shouldn't be innovative or try to move up in their line of work, but I am no stranger to employers taking advantage of their employees just to save money and time. Here, there's an incredibly devoted employer who was actually fine with taking on more responsibilities in his lin…

"Getting fired is the least of your worries"

There is no such thing as a 'green thumb'… Tending to a garden takes a lot of effort and knowledge, and if you don't put both in, it will show. Now, imagine you were a greenhouse know-it-all who brought home a pot of herbs you had carefully cultivated throughout the months, and then your landlady ripped them all out because she liked the pot you put it in. If that sounds a little too specific, that is because it is. The OP shared on r/pettyrevenge the story of the summer that her landlady did e…

This person has a lot of leaves to put out, but the leaf removal company they hired is being so picky about removing them. If you hire a company to do a service, you'd be shocked if they just decided not to do that. How useless of them! This place has created some pretty strict rules for how their leaf pickup has to go, but the rules are comically picky. This person has way more than your average share of leaves. While many of us find ourselves raking up the leaves of a couple trees on the prop…

According to the Feds, employees are only allowed to get sick 3 days out of the year. At least, PTO and sick leave is intentionally convoluted and in America, some people actually feel guilty taking sick days (even when they ARE sick) because they have that vacation to Bermuda later in the year that they're saving those days for. But doesn't that defeat the purpose of a sick day? We should just call it what it really is: Floater days where you're paid to not work.

Companies today are always complaining about labor shortages and how the workforce is getting ‘too lazy’ to go back to work. Au contraire you silly nepo-CEO's, it's not that there aren't any employees willing to work anymore, it's just that they're not willing to go back to work with no benefits, meager salaries, and to work overtime lining the pockets of a hypocritical boss that sends one email a week for a $500k annual salary.

If it works it works.
