sketchy

Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about various scams that people don't realize are scams. These might be helpful to have in the back pocket so that you don't fall prey to any of those sneaky scams. 

Oh boy, this sounds like a nasty Karen of a boss indeed. This guy put in a very reasonable request for a day off to attend a Slayer concert, and the request proceeded to set off a chain reaction of highly unanticipated toxicity. Fortunately, the guy was able to pull off a satisfying victory in small claims court. 

This guy's encounter with a dangerously believable scammer was something else. As it turns out, not all scammers are just fools getting trolled for their lazy, poorly calculated antics.

It seems like when you get down to the nitty gritty of just about any industry, there are some shady parts of it that no one wants to talk about. Even the most fun and simple seeming industries like avocados or tropical fish have seriously dark sides. When it comes to how a company treats it's employees, there are some definite red flags when it comes to looking for a job.

This is one of those quick and informative Tumblr threads that is just brimming with absurdity. Apparently the world hatched this thing, which was labelled the "Elephant's Foot", and that ended up possessing literal "Medusa" powers. Specifically, that you couldn't stare at it directly without meeting your demise. Wild. And to make matters even more wild (somehow), a mold came along and started chowing down on the lava-like material. 

Someone on AskReddit asked for people to share the important details that clients neglected to tell lawyers. If anything it's a fascinating study in how important it can be to not leave anything out, if you ever find yourself hiring a lawyer. The devil really is in the details. Just don't lie to your lawyer. 

Some OSHA regulations seem sort of strict and ridiculous, but some really bad safety fails make you concede the point that some rules are there for a reason. It's non an enviable situation to be in to have a boss who wants you to do some sketchy-ass moves just so you can replace a light bulb, but we've been there.

Some things are really better left unsaid. In this case, a seemingly fun and educational Tumblr thread on farm animals takes a dark turn when someone brings up how pigs are omnivores. And specifically, how pigs have no problem feasting on humans. 

Domino's pizza should really consider using this for some sort of marketing stunt. Turns out their delivery drivers are actual heroes. This guy managed to literally dodge a bullet. 

Not everyone's NYE went smoothly. This guy found himself in quite the predicament, after a little trip down to Mexico for the miles. Thankfully, the kindness of perfect strangers helped him out in a miraculous kind of way. 

We should all aspire to be on the same level as spite cow Dad. 

As far as pro revenge cases go, this one right here is the perfect combination of someone getting their comeuppance, and the other person getting to right a wrong. In this case, the phony and sketchy lady trying to run the apartment scam got what was coming to her. Apparently she even made it into the local news at one point.

This prospective employee absolutely demonstrated a willingness to do whatever it takes to show up for the job. When they found themselves in the nightmarish situation of getting stuck in a bathroom stall, they proceeded to kick their way out to make the job interview. Now that's a promising display of dedication. Give this person a job! 

Someone on AskReddit asked for people to share why they felt compelled to quit the job interview process. Sometimes the red flags are just too bright and numerous to ignore during the job interview process.
