“For anyone out there that thinks [working in a casino] would be a great job, well, I can tell you right now it's not as glamorous as it seems—especially when you are working in the kitchen.”

When you start working in a new industry that you never worked in before, you inevitably begin learning how those industries actually work, and how little you knew about it as a customer. It is surprising how much information companies try to keep from their customers even though that information can often be extremely beneficial for them and sometimes even life-changing. That is why, once one starts working in a new industry and learns some tricks and hacks, they should share that information…

“I was asked for a tip at the SELF CHECKOUT at a self service frozen yogurt place. Who gets the tip? Me???”

The best part of having friends in different industries is that they can share knowledge with you that most folks are completely unaware of… This can be useful whether or not you have an interest in that particular industry. For instance, based on these responses in this Reddit thread, I surprisingly learned information about refrigerator models that I will take with me the next time I need one. Sharing industry secrets can be more of a selfless act than a shady one. If there are simpler soluti…

"If you are the two girls that tried walking out on your hundred dollar tab yesterday, I hope you stub your toe on every piece of furniture you walk by."

“It’s very fun and I’m not gonna stop lol.”

Some people have a tendency of taking really low stakes situations way too far, making things that have no business being stressful very stressful indeed. When you work in customer service these situations will usually present themselves in the form of people making audacious demands and being impolite for no reason—sometimes even having meltdowns in the lobby of your restaurant or store. All that being said… Burritos are a serious business, so it's no surprise that people take situations like…

When it comes to the workforce, one thing you will never get promoted out of no matter how high up the ladder you climb is the constant inner battle between being petty or professional.

“We laughed about it but it really was the craziest encounter with entitled people…”

Nothing like having to work the job of 2 other people, amiright??

Starting a small business is a scary thing, putting it all on the line to try and create a successful business, which will see you solely reaping possibly unlimited benefits—if you can make it that far. But, hey, you take on all of the risks, you get all of the rewards; that's fundamentally how we've decided things should work in this world… and when it works well for someone, you're not going to see them complaining. However, taking on the risk means taking on the risk. Which is something a lo…

Why can't “because they're a Karen” be enough to get someone fired?…

When your upper management keeps ignoring you, what do you do? That's when you ask for forgiveness, not permission…

Attitude is important when it comes to the workplace. Still, the workplace itself is largely responsible for your attitude when you're at work. You can't just demand that your workers be happy and have that be the solution to what is an otherwise miserable job. Yet, one of the first things you're taught in retail is that you should always smile and “greet” “guests” as they walk in the door, setting the stage for an enjoyable experience for them during which they're more likely to fork out more…

Trying to beat that eepy feeling at work should count as overtime.
