Hey Siri, how do you say, "I quit my job, I have no money, please don't rob me" in Spanish?

There are a lot of people in this world with a lot of different beliefs, and we would do well to seek to understand and accept them. Still, there are some things in this world that just don't seem to add up to any rational sort of thinking. It's all well and good to follow a belief structure that carries a sense of morality and ethics. But what do you do when that structure prohibits you from using the tools of your trade? Is it your organization's responsibility to cater to these needs? Or is…

Give some people even a shred of power, and they will preside with an iron fist… devoid of any sense of justice except the whims of their own stupid ego. They'll generally not be overly concerned with anyone else's needs or wants. All is well—just as long as they have their own way. There's nothing inherently wrong with having to make changes to a schedule or roster; as a manager, that's just part of the job. Still, there are ways to do it and ways not to do it if you care a shred about the peo…

It seems like every time you clock in a little piece of you gets eaten away. Work has that effect on people, especially in the corporate world. Just because you “spice up” your cubicle with pictures of tropical vacations doesn't mean you're any closer to getting that week-long PTO request approved. And just because you do excellent work in your department doesn't mean you're going to get that raise– in fact, your boss will probably just give you more work to do as a reward for your success. If…

Commuting to work must be the biggest waste of time known to man. You sit in traffic on the freeway for 45 minutes with a stale drive through coffee in your hand, meetings to panic about, and road rage in your heart . Now imagine if your office was only 10 steps away from your bedroom? 20 steps away from your kitchen and fully stocked cupboard? Not only do you have full access to all of the luxuries of home (snacks, good coffee, comfortable pants, and your pets), but your "commute" takes about…

It's almost alarming how many customers assume it's their right that an employee drops everything to help them, whether the employee is on break, off the clock, or busy helping another customer. This was Karen's assumption as well, as she scoured the store for someone wearing what resembled a uniform. This same Karen expected a retail worker to help her, even though the worker was on break. She took offense when told that, and went straight to the manager, as any good old Karen would do. There…

If you haven't heard the word: It's 2023, and we're reinstating the law that entitles your lord to anything you own. How dare you own something nicer than your boss? From now on, if they want your stuff, they get it…. That 10-year-old BMW you're driving? Hand it over. Your new smartwatch? Just put it on their wrist right now. Oh—and they wouldn't mind if you re-homed your family's corgi, Mr. Pickle, to them either. Just imagine the frailty of this boss's ego. It's pretty hard to imagine what a…

Thankfully, this does not end well for the narcissistic boss.

Your day can easily be broken up into thirds: ⅓ of your day is spent sleeping, ⅓ of your day is spent running errands and keeping your life on track, and the last ⅓ of your blasted life, is spent creating spreadsheets for a nepo baby CEO who needs constant handholding to get through the workweek and is paid 10x your salary. We don't like those numbers, but the numbers don't lie. That last ⅓ of your life is sucking 100% of your energy and costing you your rapidly aging complexion. If you're Goog…

At what point are health and safety more important than opening in the middle of a blizzard?

Idiots can become a huge problem in the workplace when the “Peter Principle” takes effect and elevates them into positions they should never have held in the first place. From their positions of authority, they wreak havoc with their wider-reaching idiocy, making ill-advised decisions and unleashing their stupid wrath on competent workers. Luckily, that same double-edged sword of dimwitted confidence that got them in the position in the first place can also be their downfall; all it takes is th…

Just make sure you always have your mic and camera off during a Zoom call

There's nothing worse than unnecessary interference from middle management when you're just trying to do your job. You know how to do your job; they know you know how to do your job… But that's not going to stop them from hitting you with every stupid meddling directive that they possibly can to make it look like they're doing something and justify their salary. After all, it only flows in one direction: downwards. And it's easier for them to nod their head and smile when their boss comes up wi…

Imagine getting a call from your boss asking for your promotion...

It's become quite trendy in the United States to take your beloved pooches everywhere, to the annoyance of this customer who wanted to shop without dogs around . It does seem that people can take their dogs almost anywhere these days — into stores, cafes, restaurants, and so on. However, this customer is sick of seeing dogs at a place where they've historically been allowed to hang out – at home improvement stores. U/drcrankenstein took to the r/HomeDepot subreddit, usually reserved for posts f…

This long-time hotel clerk was familiar with his employer's rules — and he got the chance to use them against one customer who was entitled and rude. As u/Ancient_Ice shared to r/ProRevenge, he worked at a hotel franchise for some time. One day, he happened to come in for his shift and saw his coworkers were upset over the way a guest treated them. Surely guests can be demanding and harsh, but apparently this guest went above and beyond by screaming at the young employees. Since he'd been worki…
