Guy tips big to impress date but returns afterwards to take money back

'The man was staring daggers': Big tipper tries to take back $100, so waitress humiliates him in front of his date

This big spender was so sure he pulled a fast one on his dinner date , until his waitress foiled his plan. What's the biggest tip you've ever given? For most of us, it might be a $20 bill on a day you're feeling extra generous and flush with cash. It always helps out servers to tip, since their base pay is not usually very high. And of course, since servers rely so heavily on tips, big tippers make their entire day! This waitress rode an emotional roller coaster as she served this couple their…

'I'd be paid $6 an hour': Bar manager rebels against lazy boss who gives him an ultimatum, gets fired because he refused to work extra hours below minimum wage

Have you ever worked for tips before? When you work a job where tips are your main source of income, that becomes the primary focus of each day capitalizing on how to get more tips. In some cheapskate states, restaurants are allowed to pay you LESS than minimum wage because it's expected that you'll be making more in tips on top of that, thus making restaurant work a minimum wage job again. * huge eye roll * As everyone knows, that's not guaranteed...

'I placed [the check] behind a windshield wiper of the bin lorry': Scottish guy gets back at local parking enforcement by using their own tricks

Local parking enforcement agencies might be the root of all evil. Whether it's the local transport agency, council, or city government, as soon as that organization is responsible for parking, you can guarantee they will use bogus tickets, blatant hypocrisy, and outright bullying to ensure they can bleed as much money as possible from the population. But I should clarify that I'm biased here. If you've been reading these posts for a while, you might already be aware that I have a particular bon…

'They owned a funeral home, but I buried them with pettiness': Funeral homeowners attempt to outmaneuver neighborly opponent in regards to 8 foot tall fence, 5 years of petty revenge ensue

Neighborly relationships need to be built on mutual trust, respect, and understanding, but some neighbors take a bitter approach and leave you with a sour taste in your mouth, right off the bat. This was the case for a Redditor who was approached by new funeral home owners with a three-page-long agreement about a fence they wanted to build, bordering on his property. He told them he'd need to go over the documents before he signed them, but they pushed him to sign them that very instant. He fla…

"I knew it was a 'You're fired' meeting...": Employee plays long game of revenge on boss via malicious compliance, leads to gross misconduct, HR gets involved, boss gets demoted

Malicious compliance can quickly get ugly and lead to you getting fired… if you're not careful. This employee made sure he had a long paper trail to cover his own tracks when the inevitable ‘You’re fired' meeting arrived. He made sure he had someone to point the finger at, and in this case, it was his boss, who didn't hesitate to throw him under the bus when HR got involved. The employee worked at a call center that had a ticketing system they used to escalate cases to different teams. Sometime…

When managing a business, it's best to ensure you understand how things go before making any big decisions. When your subordinates point out that your amazing shiny new idea isn't … you'd do well to listen to them and not let your ego push you into what could be a huge mistake. This thread was posted on Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit by Redditor u/Absurd-n-Nihilistic, who shared their story with the popular community.

'He kept going and going': Pilot puts an inexplicable plane Karen in her place

A Karen and a plane, name a more iconic duo… The frequency that the two can often be found together is regrettable. Having some entitled and insane individual with you when you're locked in a pressurized cylinder hurtling through the sky at nearly 600mph (for several uncomfortable hours) is not an ideal situation to be in. But it must be something about that uncomfortable situation of flying that causes these emotionally infantile people to lose their slightest semblance of sanity. You know Sam…

Update: 'You should fire us! Ok.': Client suggests ending fifty year relationship with small trucking business, they take their advice and dismantle their client's network

There's a prevalent school of thought that prevails when it comes to client servicing: Do anything (and everything) possible to keep them happy and contracted; having worked in these sectors in the past, upper management never likes seeing a contract cancellation notice pass across their desk, even if that contract was costing the business money. I've seen sales departments signing clients at unserviceable rates—with wildly unfulfillable resource estimates. Why? Because the sales team got a com…

‘My car was hit by your car, I'm just stating the facts': Entitled executive hits employee's car; denial leads to petty revenge

Liars get on everybody's nerves, there is just something so frustrating about it, especially when you know the truth of the matter. When you hit someone's car in a parking lot, it's completely appropriate that the other person demands you provide your insurance information. It's even the law. But some folk didn't get the memo, such as this entitled executive. Yep, a coworker hit u/ohhgrrl's car, and blatantly denied it to her face. Where she gets the nerve, I don't know. In any case, OP was rig…

'Go ahead and try to file a complaint, I dare you...' : Horrible coworker refuses to contribute a donation for sick boss, attempts to claim credit, leading to petty revenge

Some people are virtuous, generous, adhere to a certain standard of morals. On the other side of the spectrum, you have the stingy, selfish leeches that seize any opportunity they can to take advantage of the first party of people mentioned. An employee was collecting money for their well-liked boss, who was feeling unwell for some time when a woman named 'Linda' decided not to pitch in. Instead of saying she wasn't going to pitch in, she just pretended that she was. OP didn't push it, and Lind…
