This customer left a poor review for this mechanic without letting all the facts out. The owner responded with some pretty critical information that put the reviewer in a very different light. For another review that demanded a heavy response, here's a donut shop owner who handled a customer's angry review like a boss.

When this guy was faced with a dumb law getting in the way, this guy decided to fight back with a Cat. The logistics around tree removal can lead to some interesting drama. Here are some more loopholes clever people exploited.
In a noble move, this guy's pregnant wife wants to name their child after her grandfather. The problem is, that kid's name would end up being John Doe. The internet found that burdening your kid with the name they give to unidentified bodies sounds like a bad idea. Here are some other horrible names people have encountered.
We've seen our share of stupid managers and incompetent owners, and things never seem to change. This guy had the misfortune of having his job bought out by a bigger company, but knowing the rules, he managed to outlast his crappy manager.
People have such a limited understanding of technology that the office tech support person can seem like a literal godsend. IT has to deal with some of the worst tech support gore around, and managers who don't know what computers are. This guy had to deal with a problem printer, and used an unorthodox method.
It's crazy that someone can find themselves in the position of paying for their sister to take their wedding, but it does not seem fun. Weddings are the source of family drama, backstabbing, and in some cases, entitled bridezillas cancelling the wedding and keeping 30k in gifts.
The mighty hubris of another horrible customer comes crashing down. For whatever reason, some customers really hold onto that "customer is always right" approach even when they're told that that they're not actually talking to an employee. Irate customers mistake random people for employees all the time, and the results are wonderful.
Entitled morons are a dime a dozen, but someone who'd deliberately vinegarize every drink at a party is absolutely mad. The worst part is that he thinks he's doing everyone a favor. You can do that crap at your own house, but when you do something disrespectful as a houseguest it really chaps people's asses.
This young employee asked whether it was wrong to toy with the emotions of overly dick-ish customers by getting fake fired in front of them. It seems like a pretty harmless practice and gets bad customers to rethink their roles. We wonder what would happen if a customer just said "good!" People have ways of dealing with bad customers like this flight attendant who handled a problem flyer or this donut shop owner responding to a bad review with humility.
What was going to be a fun Airbnb weekend turned into what basically ended up as a stay in a haunted house except all the ghosts are shit. We've had underwhelming vacations but few of them culminated in an evacuation over the great Pississippi. Sounds bad. And in classic timeline-style recounting! For more gross stuff, here's twitter's reaction to a bull semen explosion.
Now this is one succinct, well done story. For a heartfelt story that actually happened, here's the story about a train station voice that's a real feels trip. And for some creative writing prompt stuff, here's a tumblr thread that imagines aliens being fought off by wildlife.
We remember being idiot kids and doing stupid crap like wasting an employee's time on a joke order. That said, the humor is really lost once you've realized you've just spent money for a joke no one even payed any attention to. Here's a fun workplace prank of an employee who gets fake fired every time an awful customer shows up.
People often find after they're hired that their job description doesn't cover nearly as much as what they're actually expected to do. Already stretched to the limit with a dwindling and under-qualified staff, this guy was asked to "do his job" so that's exactly what he did. People have different responses to being bullied at work, like this employee who prank fires themselves or this guy who stood up to his boss who didn't allow sick days.
We're not sure if you get any scholarships for claiming to be part lizard-person, but if anyone in the admissions office knows anything about DnD this person is screwed. Since it's this person's parents fault for perpetuating snake-descent, here are salty adults sharing the unjust lies they were told as kids.
Interring or spreading a loved ones remains is a deeply emotional, and sometimes logistically awkward moment. Mitch Feltscheer discovered this firsthand when his dad had to deal with an extra windy day by the sea. These moments happen from time to time, like this guy who wasn't sure what to do with a brick of his dad's ashes.
It can be hard to prove to someone that you just made a simple human error, especially when they're a stranger in line at the store. With this guy, he had a winning strategy for showing this other guy that he didn't see him. Sometimes fellow customers aren't so understanding.
