Let's be real; everything is a subscription these days, whether or not they should be or even really can be. Before long, we'll need to keep up with the weekly subscription on our toaster for the privilege of cooking two pieces of toast at once. While that might sound outrageous, keep in mind printers have already normalized that type of thing for years—even new cars have started coming with basic features locked behind subscription-based grifting models. While this is bad, it's even worse when…

Protecting yourself should always be your number one priority in the working world. This story serves as yet another reminder of that fact, which applies to all industries, but in this case, we're talking about a diligent lawyer and his pompous client. This thread was posted to Reddit by Calledinthe90s , who recounted a story involving his client, Frank. Frank worked for a real estate corporation that was seeking money after one of its buildings collapsed. Frank was warned by the Original Poste…

"This is why I support laws saying that canceling a subscription must be as easy as signing up for one."

If the opportunity of a lifetime comes along, you may as well take it! This person certainly did: u/NALORpod had an incredible tale of petty revenge that took them years to actually act on. Still, it was worth the wait, not just for them, but for another person who was caught up in the drama. This story revolves around a boss who was cheating on his wife. He didn't even try to hide it very well! It left his employees in that awkward situation of knowing about the affair, but not knowing what to…

There's nothing worse in the workplace than being stuck with a slothful coworker who refuses to do any of their own work and is constantly asking you to help with their workload, meanwhile you know that if you were to refuse to help you'd just be seen by the rest of the workplace as “unhelpful” or “not a team player.”

Don't just get petty— get creative. Try to become so petty it strikes fear (or laughter) into the hearts of those around you. Become formidable and unchallenged by societal norms! Communication comes easily for some people, but for others it can be intimidating. Instead of asking for what they want, they'd rather use passive-aggressive behavior to get what they desire. In some cases, it's the safer option: you never know how a stranger might react to you asking them to switch seats with you on…

"Well. If that's how you want to play it, sure."

". . . despite it being in absolute black and white he refused to accept any fault or offer anything to make things right."

This is the kind of prank that people dream about. To think up and then execute such a brilliant way to get your least favorite coworker to quit on the spot is just * chef's kiss *. Perfection! This guy was working in construction when he managed to make someone rage quit on the spot, and do so in such a way that he could never get his job back. It's probably occurred to all of us at some point that quitting a job on the spot would feel so good. Telling your boss to go kick rocks and triumphant…

Talk about a manager who acted out of turn for no good reason. Here , we have a dude who was threatened by the fact that one of his bartenders at their pub helped bring in a ton of much-needed new staff members who were all his personal friends. Why was this problem? The manager was worried that they would all gossip behind his back and plan his demise. Sounds pretty paranoid and dramatic but that's exactly how this guy seemed to be wired. How did he act on his fears? Well, he decided the best…

It's important to remember in any circumstances where you want to circumvent security and gain entrance to somewhere that you're going to need to get out as well… and the same thing applies when you're trying to get back into somewhere you've gotten out of. Anyone who ever snuck out as a teenager knows exactly how this goes: getting out is pretty easy, but getting back into your room in the wee hours of the morning without waking anyone is exceedingly more difficult. Mom, if you're reading this…

It's not every day you get to enact revenge as an intern . Most interns spend their days getting coffee for the team, printing out papers, organizing the office, or looking over the shoulder of different employees to learn more about how they do their jobs. But for u/Y0bogoya, this was an opportunity to learn many different things, not all of which were being taught by their company. This person's petty revenge story revolves around trying to please their crush. The crush overheard another woma…

Imagine having the audacity to throw a temper tantrum at your neighbor for using your electricity after he did it to mow your lawn. For the full context, this dude shared a duplex with his aggressive Karen neighbor and had decided to mow the lawn once the grass was overgrown and overdue. After taking care of his half of the lawn, he thought it would be kind (and aesthetically appealing) to mow the other half of the lawn, which belonged to the Karen. She never enjoyed upkeep, anyway. Well, in or…

What a silly idea for this dude to damage his neighbor's car and then have the audacity to ask for favors! That's right. After refusing to take the blame for clearly causing damage to this Redditor's car, the dude next door went on an extended outdoorsy vacation and asked for the Redditor to watch his home because he was the only person to be trusted. Well, as it turns out, that was a major lapse in judgment. While the neighbor was gone, there was a huge storm and the neighbor was impossible to…

Life can deal you some funny and unexpected hands. Sometimes, in the form of things that seem so unlikely that you'd consider it next to impossible, they become a reality. Yet, still, these things can happen, and these moments of happenstance can be defining. When this college student bought themself their first real phone in university, they were annoyed to find that their new phone number had previously belonged to someone who numerous financial institutions were trying desperately to reach.…

This construction crew was, unsurprisingly, up really early. They tend to do that: construction workers often begin their days in the early morning hours before the sun rises. The crew staying at u/cavelioness's hotel was no different: they were starting their days before the hotel staff could even provide breakfast for them. Next, this retail boss wanted his employee to add a major responsibility to their job, but that employee refused, writing, “ I got fired and cost the store approximately $…
