Some people fail to understand that their behavior towards others affects how others eventually behave towards them. In other words, they don't understand that what goes around comes around – You can't expect people to be nice to you, or to help you out, when you refuse to do the same for them. This rule is a key element when it comes to a neighborly relationship. Neighbors often seek each other's help, but if one refuses to help others, there is no reason for others to help them in return, whi…

This boss has an odd incentive structure, and it is not at all favorable towards his hard-working employees. When you go to an interview at a movie theater, I imagine they ask you about your customer service qualifications or your background working in retail. They probably don't ask how much snow you can shovel… these employees had to find out the hard way that it was part of their workplace requirements. U/SparkleFritz had a boss who insisted that when it snowed, the employees should be the o…

As a working adult, there is one lesson about work you usually learn the hard way, which is to never let anyone push you into doing work that is not part of your job description. If you agree to even a small job that is something you are not getting paid to do, you will probably end up doing a lot more, without being rewarded for it. This is why the OP in this Reddit story was probably not in a rush to do what a customer asked for. That and the fact that the customer was incredibly entitled and…

These two neighbors have a feud that is escalating by the day. So it goes with neighborhood drama : little things can quickly escalate into issues that aren't easy to resolve. Just like with any relationship, there has to be some give and take. If you water plants for your neighbor, they might powerwash your sidewalk while they're washing theirs. Or maybe your neighbor bakes you a great casserole, so you return their dish with some fresh brownies for them to snack on. Life can be so sweet, but…

Snow shoveling is hard work, but these neighbors don't care. If they can be cozy in their home while this OP does all the heavy lifting, that's perfectly fine with them. Out of all the outdoor chores, shoveling snow is a lot of people's least favorite task. At least when you rake leaves, they're pretty light! Snow is heavy and bulky, so you get sweaty and tired out instantly. The dude in this petty revenge tale didn't shovel for just an hour or two. No, instead, they had to clear out their driv…

This woman thought she had a pretty good plan to use on snowy days . She didn't want to shovel any part of her sidewalk unnecessarily. Even though this woman was paying someone to shovel her walkway, she blocked off a part of the sidewalk with her vehicle. Her thinking was that if her car was covering some sidewalk squares, that's less ground that needs to be shoveled . I mean, she's technically correct… but how does everyone else who has to walk through the neighborhood feel about that? Sure,…

Snow days are a lot of fun when you're a kid, but less so as an adult. As a kid, you may get to skip school and spend all day building snowmen and sledding down snowy hills with your friends. But as an adult, a snowy day means you'll have to shovel out your car and head to work on slippery roads.

If you do something badly enough, you might not get asked to do it again. This dude was just trying to be a good neighbor — but he could tell when his good deeds were unwanted. Growing up near the Rocky Mountains , this person and their family had to deal with snow a lot. Luckily for the OP, their dad owned a snow blower. Instead of shovelling, which takes ages, they could just take care of the snow without pulling a muscle. Plus, in a snow storm, shovelling can be futile anyway. All your hard…

What the boss says, goes, even if the jobs takes hours. This guy was just doing what the boss said, down to the letter, and his adherence to the rules ended excellently. Lots of entry levels jobs require you to sign off on some rules before you begin the job. And one of those rules usually says something along the lines of, “The employee will complete additional tasks as needed.” With that phrase, bosses have the leeway to get their employees to do almost anything under the guise of “additional…

Don't ever mess with someone's parking spot — especially not when you're as brazen about it as this woman was. U/notanotherdonut shared their story to r/pettyrevenge, and it truly lives up to that name! The snowed-in Redditor writes that on a wintery day , they decided to clear a parking space for their BF, so that he'd have a place to park after work. The OP writes that it was no easy feat. It took them hours to dig the spot, and mere seconds to get it stolen by an uncaring neighbor. Luckily,…

It's situations like these where we could ask questions all day about who the worse actor is. But maybe it's more apt to consider the fact that if you do something that you're certain will make someone extremely angry, all bets are off when you come back to your car. For another story of snowy entitlement, here's the one about entitled neighbors who didn't like the way a dad snow cleared their driveway and ended up getting fined .

Good ol' overtime.
