Entitled people take any chance they get to make others feel like they personally work for them, and tend to be a tad controlling regarding people's personal lives. This hotel guest was aghast that a front desk employee dared go out with friends and have fun off the clock, AKA when he wasn't actually working (nor was he about to be on shift). Apparently, the employee was recognizable due to their work clothes (minus the nametag) and beard. How dare employees have a life?! The hotel guest also m…

Tim was the type of employee who did the bare minimum and expected a promotion. He was certain he was a critical cog in the machine, working in a department that reported to the mayor — much thanks to his father, who was a bigshot lawyer. The thing is, Tim had difficulty doing even basic tasks and was more of a thorn in his boss's side than anything else. After an egregious event at work, Tim was fired. Before you feel bad for the dude, he was technically offered the opportunity to resign. But…

When the CEO of this IT company demanded changes to his email system, he totally miscalculated the consequences.

Like all establishments, an automobile company has rules and policies. It seems entirely plausible (generally speaking,) that people would understand a little thing called the 'rule of thumb'. AKA, the unspoken agreement. But unfortunately, not everyone is very bright. There are many possible conclusions one may come to when a car seemingly evaporates into thin air. When you disappear for two hours when taking a car out for a test drive, and ignore all of the staff's attempts at reaching out to…

You know that nervous, but excited feeling you get in the pit of your stomach the night before starting your first day at a new job? Well, imagine if that feeling was actually you getting sick and now you have to call out with a sick day before you even officially have done any work. Sounds like a sticky situation. Well, one server reached out to managers on Reddit to get their opinion on the situation after they had to do just that. They already have asthma and then got Strep Throat, which mak…

Clients who try to gaslight you might want to think twice about leaving a paper trail, as that ultimately defeats the purpose of gaslighting. This particular client in question has a long list of faults, such as unreasonable expectations, refusal to listen to logic (they don't adhere to the universal laws of physics apparently), and pulling the classic shocked Pikachu face when presented with proof of their own incompetence. You can't just expect to be a top-priority client without paying for w…

Fresh out of effs to give.

It's becoming more and more evident that the workplace culture that the Boomers set into effect many moon ago is not working anymore. So far the boomers are holding as tight as they can to it and Gen-X have been enforcing it. However, millennials are a different story. Millennials were told they could be whatever they wanted to be, but not told what the options were or how to obtain them. When they started to enter the workforce, they were called lazy, entitled, and many other things. So, mille…

Whoever created these signs get an A+ for creativity. Some of them are dumb, some of them are clever, and some are plain offensive. Still, they leave little to the imagination. I wonder whose job it is to double-check these things or come up with the mottos. Who approved these for the masses? Maybe the job is so boring that it leaves no choice to the employee but to make their own life more interesting. A couple of these signs are oddly specific as if there is a very peculiar backstory… makes m…

There are few people in this world who can honestly say that they actually enjoy their jobs. Most of us just kind of exist in this black hole called existence and try not to stir stuff up with HR or yell at our office Karen. If you work in retail, you try not to end up in the News for jumping at a customer. You count every day leading up to the weekend, and tell your coworkers that you are ‘definitely quitting this year’. 2023 is basically as stressful as 2022, and we're only a few days in… A l…

There is no shortage of delusional and angry people in this world, and when you're working retail it can sometimes feel like all of them have decided to visit you on the same day.

It is simply HARD to believe that people would think THAT COMMUNICATING like this to their staff is in the SLIGHTEST bit effective or acceptable!

Is being a psychic medium going to be the next ridiculous requirement for an entry-level role?

This restaurant owner is the definition of evil...

This employer forced “several employees” to sign effective vows of silence (performance improvement plan) at their workplace and photos of the contract have sparked discussion online.

There's nothing more infuriating and invalidating than being undervalued or underpaid for your work. Bonus points when an employer or client just flat-out refuses to pay you or tries to gaslight you into ing you less. Well, when Redditor u/cleverbiscuit1738 was called into their place of work at 6 am for training they were told by their manager that they “Don't need to punch in until 8:30" while being abruptly whisked away from the punch-in clock. Their shift didn't usually start until 8:30 and…
