This is what happens when you take advantage of your relationship. In an ideal partnership, each partner gives their fair share. Of course, not everything under the sun can be 50/50; that's unrealistic given the state of the job market. However, a good partnership requires compromise and a fair breakdown of each individual's contributions. We know that most partnerships do not function like this and that when these ground rules are never set up, oftentimes the whole partnership ends up on uneve…

To a seasoned traveler, flight comforts are sacred and everyone has their little rituals that help dull their mind enough to endure 8 hours of sitting in the same confined seat. Usually those rituals include a little bit of peace and quiet to reach a meditative state, but when you're sitting next to a drunken human toddler on a long flight, tensions are poised to fly high.

Apparently, revenge is a dish best served cold, raw, and wrapped in rice. This woman was taking a week-long sushi cooking class and neglected to eat what she made at the end of the day, which made some of her classmates curious. When they asked why she hadn't eaten her sushi (and probably wanted to eat some of it themselves), they were not prepared for this lady's story. The Redditor recounted how this woman never enjoyed sushi and was merely taking the course because her husband is obsessed wi…

It's not often you'll find people rooting for landlords; there's not exactly anything about a group of people who have a reputation for milking their tenants for cash, increasing rent for improvements and repairs that they never actually completed, and taking deposits with little-to-no justification, that inspires people to root for them. It's worth recognizing, though, that this generalization doesn't remotely cover every landlord out there. There are plenty of landlords out there who are rent…

Some people are born to be good roommates; others are meant to stay away from all humans and live entirely alone. That may sound savage, but it's just the truth. When you start having to cohabitate with other humans outside of your immediate family, you should have to undergo some sort of personality test to see what the best kind of living situation might be for you. That way, you're saving yourself and any potential future roommates the trouble of having to passive-aggressively communicate to…

Cheaters never win… While this lesson might be taught to young children in order to discourage them from cheating, unfortunately, in the world at large, cheaters often do win and have a sizable advantage in the form of the shortcuts they're able to take instead of taking the long road like honest folk. Sure, sometimes they'll be caught, but if they have enough wealth or social status, they may just be given a slap on the wrist and sent on their way. Cheating in universities is rife, especially…

Ahh, family. Can't live with ‘em… and can’t live with 'em. While being one of the greatest and most fulfilling parts of life, family can also be one of the most toxic and infuriating. For some reason, being around family brings out the worst in us as well. As soon as we're back around our parents, we cease to be the functioning and capable adults we are and instead become our teenage selves, reacting with exasperated vitriol to any attempts our parents make to guide us. Our parents simultaneous…

There's always that one coworker who makes the company lunches harder for literally everyone else. Now, if you're not aware, company lunches serve a very specific purpose for any organization. They serve as a brief escape for employees who might feel less than sufficiently supported on a day-to-day basis in the office. Regardless of whatever the intent is, we're here for anything on the company's dime. As long as these lunches are not used as a way to replace more serious issues like employee c…

There's a special place in the afterlife for landlords who refuse to address serious issues from tenants. When it comes to the rampant issue of bed bugs, in particular, it takes a specific kind of sketchy landlord to ignore those calls and emails. It is no understatement that bed bugs are about as scary as conditions can get for tenants. When even the most difficult and paranoid tenant claims that there are bed bugs in their apartment, no matter how wrong they may be, you do not want to dismiss…

Sometimes you should be careful what you wish for because your deepest desires may come with unintended consequences. For example, if you make a wish to some magic dust as a 13-year-old to be “30, flirty, thriving, and thriving” hoping to have the future and life that you think you want to have… You may, instead, wake up to find that, while you're now successful, you've also become a vapid, hateful, spiteful individual. Hopefully, it's not too late and the magic dust takes you back, traumatized…

There is nothing joyful about a 12-hour flight, but this guy's seatmate certainly made things worse for everyone.

Dads always have some kind of problem with the neighbors. Perhaps the innate dadness of living in a neighborhood and showing your dadly dominance over the other dads, but at some point, there's a natural progression from friendly competition into neighborly rivalry.

It's tough to resist the delicious treats and snacks in the break room. Whether it's because the snackies are free or because the boredom of the workplace can immediately be staunched by a delectable cinnamon roll, but it's dangerous to anyone's diet to be exposed to sugary goodness for 8 hours every day. In this case, one employee weaponized the desserts in the office...

Best way to get back at your boss? Give them a fake gift! Apparently, that's the lesson learned after this Redditor got some much needed petty revenge on her manipulative and problematic employer. First off, let's start with some background on this guy. He forced OP to work 13-hour shifts with no OT while feeding that whole “paying your dues” narrative. Additionally, he would have outbursts, both verbal and physical in the workplace. However, at the same time, he kept pestering OP to get him fr…

Being an Uber driver requires more patience with crazy customers than most jobs.

If you have a generic email address and a generic name, there's a high likelihood that you've received someone else's information by mistake...
