She gave "cat tax" a whole new meaning!

There is an episode in How I Met Your Mother where Marshall gets yelled at by his terrible boss, and he doesn't know how he should react. His friends all give him different advice, some saying he should ignore it, while others said he should kindly confront his boss and put him in his place. Eventually, Marshall unexpectedly explodes at his boss and screams back at him with everything he thinks of his job and the management, and at the end of this screaming fit, Marshall quits. While it is just…

When one leaves a job in which they didn't like their boss, there are two things they might hope for any future interaction with said boss – Either no interaction at all and completely severing any connection with that person, or getting to see them one more time and proving to them just how much that boss missed out on by letting them go. Out of those two options, the best stories obviously come from the latter, much like the story we have here. OP (original poster) was contacted by their form…

Who didn't experience the frustration of getting email after email of rejection from countless jobs you thought you'd be perfect for? If you never experienced that, then congratulations! You are one in a million. If you do know what we're talking about, our question to you is – After how many rejections did you acknowledge that maybe the problem is you and something should change? 50? 100? 1000? Plus, what does one should change to actually make a difference? The person in this Reddit story cam…

Pretty sure that's illegal...

Karmic interference

"She believes that since she’s the eldest cousin, it’s technically hers by ‘right.’"

Stealing has its consequences.

When you know you are a valued employee, one your company cannot afford to lose, you have a lot of leverage when negotiating benefits and pay. The problem is, unless you actually threaten to quit, companies will not be in a rush to give you more than they think you deserve, which is usually much less than what you do deserve. So employees threaten to quit, and some manage to get what they want from their current company, and some end up actually quitting and getting a better deal somewhere else…

Well, at least they didn't make a big deal out of nothing

Since many offices have switched their layout to an 'open space' type of work environment, the reality is that there is not a lot of privacy in the office. Not only do many employees find themselves working when they face their coworkers all day long, but there is also a trend of getting glass doors for all the rooms in the office. This means that there is pretty much nowhere you can be at work without someone else being able to see you, maybe other than the bathroom. This ongoing trend leads e…

How many assignments do you reckon you submitted in your journey to find a job? A couple? Dozens? Hundreds? People who have been looking for a job for quite some time, have probably gone through dozens of assignments they had to provide to hiring managers and recruiters. Out of those dozens, at least some have been later used by the company they applied for, even if they didn't get the job. Admittingly, this happened to me a while ago. The company I interviewed for used my ideas on their social…

'If it ain't broke don't fix it' could not be any more clear, and yet many companies, especially in the food industry, keep trying to change things that don't need changing. Surely, every single one of us can think of a food product that we used to love, but then something about it changed and suddenly tasted disgusting. I'm sure it will not come as a surprise to know that companies do that because they are trying to reduce costs and use cheaper products. And when you use cheaper products, well…

If a workplace can get away with dumping new responsibilities on employees without giving them anything in return, you can bet they will give it a go. There are plenty of employees who won't notice they are being taken advantage of, and will gladly agree to more work with nothing in return. They will probably convince themselves that it is good for the experience, and at least they can put the extra responsibility in their resume, for the next job to come. If you are not interested in gaining '…

Even though he was offered a full refund

Getting to do what you always wanted to, ever since you were a little kid, is something very few people can claim they achieved. Think about it, how many people do you know who can actually say they work in their 'dream job'? If one does manage to work in their dream job, they might have to work extra hard to keep a firm hand on it. You never know when will be the day your boss might get tired of you, and losing a job you actually love is a lot harder than losing a job you couldn't care less ab…
