Someone on AskReddit asked people about the times they caught themselves in the middle of a day's work, and genuinely couldn't believe that they got paid to do what they did, for "work." Some jobs are more surreal and enjoyable than others. Some jobs literally make you forget that you're working. These examples might make you all kinds of envious.

Did she really expect this to work? A stranger trying to make an unsavory trade for a 400 dollar Grand Prix? Aside from the legality aspect, it doesn't seem like accepting 150 dollars worth of sex from a complete stranger seems like a very smart idea. Money can motivate people to do strange things, and people have a hard time getting what they want without being rude, like this abusive customer who got slammed for demanding to speak to an owner on bereavement leave.
There are a surprising amount of businesses out there that exist not because their service requires that much time or skill, but because of some dubious sociological precedent in place, or because they actively try to keep people from knowing the truth. Unlike these things people wrongfully think are scams, some industries are just run by bastards.
The world is full of choosing beggars who think it's proper procedure to demand stuff for free, then get really upset when they don't get it. They come from all walks of life and end up on message boards and DMs frustrating the living shit out of people trying to sell stuff, make legit art and do other business.
This business owner has a history of taking absolutely no shit as well as having an incredible mouth on em. Basically the perfect combo to stop any rude and annoying customer in their tracks. Seriously, check out what this guy said to a private school when he upgraded their charity before them. Total Legend.
It starts off with an interaction between the customer and the admin manager, then after enough annoyance, Chelsea brings in the big guns.
It's pretty rare that people manage to solve stuff like this so gracefully. And what's really surprising is that the owner was on his side. He must have hated the manager already. Sometimes people stick up for themselves and get results, like this bicyclist who got hist by a jerk driver.
This is what happens when a wannabe so-called "Influencer" with 10k followers thinks they can swing their weight around and bully a person into doing a job for less than minimum wage. Honestly, who thinks they can waste other people's time with this kind of BS? By the way, if you want to waste more time looking at more of this kind of BS, here's way more laughably entitled cheapskates.
Nothing feels quite like pouring your blood, sweat and tears into buying a piece of junk 2005 civic just to watch some kid get a brand new BMW from Mommy and Daddy. Rich kid syndrome is real, and it's one of the most maddening things to watch from the outside. For more, here are dumbfounded people sharing their craziest encounters with rich kid syndrome.
I guess if you want to not pay someone for their work, it's a pretty bad idea to start off your plan by handing over the keys to your site. Karma hit hard here. It's generally a better policy not to lie and steal, especially from people who have a plan to strike back. Kinda like the time this guy got stiffed so he grouted a bathroom with sugar.
Landlords always seem to promise things like working dishwashers and hot water, but sometimes fall short of their ability to provide an adequate living situation in exchange for your cash. Rent is expensive too, so paying a whole lot to live in a place with a terrible landlord who doesn't fix anything is an absolute nightmare. When this woman's boyfriend was being taken advantage of, she stepped in and made it too expensive for the landlord to NOT get the washing machine fixed.
We'd all love to dress up as our favorite cartoon characters and superheroes, but few of us have the time and budget to do a good job. Thanks to Lowcost_cosplay we have an answer to the question "how can I dress up like my favorite Disney character, Ursula the Sea Witch, when all I can afford is a banana?"
We like to see idiot scammers get trolled, but sometimes they're incredibly clever and have access to way more of your information than you thought. Seriously, someone can dig up tons of personal information on you like your family members and past addresses in order to look legit, and frankly that's spooky as hell. This guy had to deal with just that but thankfully had the sense to back out.
If there's any lesson to be learned by all parties here, it's that it's a good idea to have insurance. Another one would be to not falsify your own insurance documents. Another thing might be, don't tell the person you hit with your car to go to the police while screaming that they'll never get a penny out of you. Not only is it a bad look, it kind of sours the relationship. Sometimes people go all out for revenge.
Brazilian Maria Fernanda, is making bank off her cosplaying efforts on Instagram. She employed her cosplay skills on Instagram to rack up a sizable following, and eventually was able to monetize her account.

The world is full of choosing beggars who routinely push the limits of decency to save a few extra bucks. Sometimes it's your cousin's ex-girlfriend who still uses your Netflix account and demands that you pay for it. Sometime's it's a random dude on facebook marketplace who wants your iPhone for free. Cheapskates come from all walks of life, and they're constantly making life more annoying for everyone around them.
