There are the ‘givers’ of the world and the ‘takers’. Givers are generous and caring, trying to do their best to return a piece of karma to the world. Takers are a different story– If you give an inch, they'll take an entire yard.

There's nothing worse than hearing your phone ringing and scrambling to answer it, only to realize it's just another spam call. Seriously, how do these people even get our numbers? But let's face it, if you've got a cell phone, you're bound to get hit with spam calls every now and then. Some folks luck out and only get them once in a blue moon, while others seem to be on the receiving end multiple times a day . Some folks just get the short end of the stick. Well, have you ever thought about tu…

Apparently some Karens can't do math

Fresh-faced college kids are willing to put up with a lot in the workplace. Desperate to find that shiny job they were promised would pay off their student loans within the year, they'll usually start with a scrutinous eye for the golden entry-level job of their dreams. Quickly, they realize it's harder than it seems to find a half-decent job.

We've all heard horrifying tales of CEO's hiding from the workforce in their ivory tower, hailing gratitude from above as if money grows on trees. Out-of-touch 1%ers have a knack for rubbing the working class the wrong way and as history would prove, when people get desperate enough in the gutters, they'll have nothing to lose when it comes to an uprising. Just ask the French!

Management at one car dealership messed with the wrong sales team. In trying to save themselves money, these managers soured their whole team's attitudes toward their jobs. If you've ever heard a great salesperson sell something, you know it's a true skill. Some people are just born with the ability to effortlessly talk someone into buying their product. They can make you go from not wanting a fancy car, to taking out your wallet and buying something way pricier than you intended. In the moment…

Over the last few years, we've all found ourselves in a bit of a financial pickle. Whether you blame inflation, shrinkflation, or whatever new economics term the experts are calling it, the bottom line is that life is getting more expensive. So a lot of working class folks are trying to get promoted, get raises, and generally make more money just to keep up with their expenses.

Working an hourly job makes you appreciate every second you spend on the clock. Depending on your hourly wage (and how bored you get on your shift) you might even know the mathematical breakdown of what you earn per second when you're on the job! So when the bean counters in the back start skimming quarters and dimes off of your daily shift, what does that add up to?

This isn't a story you hear every day, but you should keep this petty trick in your back pocket the next time you're looking to dish out some epic revenge.

You can never exactly predict when and how karma is going to strike. Sometimes, the people who deserve it the most get off easy (for now). But when karma does come into play, the results can be glorious. I'll never forget the time I had a friend who was so insistent that their wedding would happen the way they wanted it to that despite the forecast of good weather, it started to downpour during their outdoor wedding ceremony. It was the kind of climactic situation no one could have predicted (a…

Imagine how audacious you'd have to be to expect a free upgrade everywhere you go? Like if you were heading to the mechanic for a tire rotation and expected a full new set of tires. Or if you had coach tickets for your flight home for the holidays and Jeff Bezos just showed up to the tarmac insisting you take his private jet instead. Feels silly, huh?

Going through all the clauses in a lease is one of my least favorite things to do in the world. The dull feel of the paper, the tiny writing, the boring yet difficult-to-read legal stuff… It's too much for me. That is why I always get one of my friends in the legal field to check the documents I sign before I sign them. This young tenant did not bother to read certain clauses in her lease, but it all turned out okay in the end because once she did pay attention, she knew what she had to do. It…

When you're little, the difference between ‘right’ and ‘wrong' is usually pretty clear. Stealing your friend's toy is wrong, but returning it to them is the right thing to do. However, playground rules don't apply when you're an adult and every black-and-white decision becomes muddled in a sea of grey.

Internet tutorials make DIY projects look like a walk in the park. Watching a sped-up video of a professional woodworker dismantling, staining, and rebuilding a piece of street furniture makes upcyclers green with envy, but whenever an amateur grabs the same set of tools, most people realize they're all thumbs.

"Uno reverse and draw 4"

As we've all seen over the weekend, because of all of the Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals being shoved down our throats, sometimes companies need to slash their prices in order to make a sale. Discounts drive the consumer populous mad with desire and even if they're only saving 10% with our coupon, most shoppers will stop at nothing to get it redeemed.
