‘Our agreement doesn’t apply': Employee quits and gets reimbursed for $21,000 after boss insists they commute 200 miles a day for 2 years without compensation

You would think that a boss who purposely makes their employee drive 200 miles a day without being compensated should be fired. I find it hard to believe I'm the only one rooting for this dude's professional demise… So what happened? This boss lied to his employee and worse, manipulated them into commuting 200 miles a day for 2 entire years…

If you've ever sold something online, you know that the customers aren't ideal. They text you, 'Is this available?', only to ghost you when you answer in the affirmative. Or they promise to pick it up, set up a date and a time, and then never show up. Or they actually show up with half the money and give you a sob story on why you should give them the item for free. Yes, I'm speaking from experience. One man decided to sell an old laptop he had back from his University days, posting it online,…

‘You rented out my home’: Landlord Airbnb's tenant's home while he's on vacation, refuses to cover costs of missing items

When you're on vacation, the last thing you'd imagine happening back in your home is other people living in it, as you continue to pay rent according to your lease.

'You have to pay us back; we found a way': Tenants modify landlord's coin-op laundry following landlord's refusal to reimburse them for $650 HVAC repair, landlord loses hundreds of dollars

Relationships with landlords are often rocky, unstable, and riddled with undertones of ego, making it difficult to solve issues when they inevitably arise. In this case, OP was living in a large old Victorian house that was converted into about 4-5 individual apartments. The issue that arose was an exhaust pipe that was melting away thanks to the landlord's incompetence when he was installing the HVAC system.
