Teachers have a lot on their plate. While they're struggling with growing classrooms, more stringent lesson plans, and Karenish moms breathing down their throat, they're essentially expected to raise the next generation of children all on their own– all for measly wages and no 'thank you's. The last thing an overworked teacher needs is a principal demanding busy work from them.

As I get older, it's become clear that some of the things I did when I was younger could be considered a 'mistake'– but in the end, I learned from those failed experiences more than I did my successes. We're human! We all make mistakes. But it's not every day that we're faced with the consequences of a $75k mistake...

Memes that'll find you better than that post-vacation email

It's no secret that minimum wage has been nearly the same for decades, except all of our expenses are getting exponentially higher. Back in the 80's a mom could buy a haul of groceries to feed a family of 4 for a week for $20 and now, couples with only a cat to care for are spending 10x that amount just for basics at Trader Joe's. Hmm… Where did we go wrong here?

First impressions are important in the workplace. If you come off as a quirky weirdo on your first day, it's a tough trope to live down, but innocent awkwardness is to be expected. But sometimes coworkers can sense when someone is more than just a little 'quirky'. In fact, for some new hires, it's pretty clear right off the bat that you're never going to get along… fundamentally. Especially if that dicey, new hire acts like a total creep from the moment they first shake your hand.

Fashion matters. In the workplace, your clothing can reflect more than just your style and can shed light on your position in the office hierarchy as well. Only a deluded person would think that they can score a management position at a marble-floored company while wearing a pair of plaid pajamas in their interview. Even in the digital age, sometimes, you actually need to dress to impress.

If you give unclear, contradictory instructions to your employees, you're just asking for problems. It makes you wonder how these supervisors got promoted in the first place. Clarity is pretty much the most important part of the job, and if you can't do that, you have no business expecting your team to follow you blindly.

It's hard to dislodge CEO's from their position of power. With their ‘friends in high places’ guarding the gates to their job titles, CEOs are almost untouchable. Even with poor job performance, terrible leadership, and a downright inability to do their duties, the only way to really reveal a toxic CEO's incompetence is through the eyes of the shareholders.

Is it a fireable offense to snap at your boss? Or is it a normal human slip-up that happens from time to time? I would go with the latter, but some managers take it as an insult to their authority. The insecure managers. The manager that would throw you under the bus the second you get just a little on their nerves. Unfortunately, there are many managers like this out there running things. So what do you do? One young Redditor asked this exact question. She works in the health industry and is q…

Manager fumbles the first few days of a rising star's employment

PTO policy is something that employees are extremely familiar with. The moment they plop themselves in that ergonomic office chair on their first day of work, they're already looking for ways to get out of it.

Big companies can get away with inhumane injustices simply because they have the sharkiest lawyers on retainer waiting to crush the opposition. Employees are only a tiny bug carcass on the windshield of massive corporations, so when the little guy attempts to stand up to them, all businesses need to do is blast the wiper fluid and brush away their problems.

Who can you trust at work?

Bean counters can be a bit frustrating. Although we commend the audit-avoiding efforts of the accounting department, their decision-making process feels rather baseless in the real world. As footmen in the trenches on a day-to-day basis, the workforce sometimes knows better when it comes to improving company efficiency.

Time and a half… These are the magic words that make any hustler consider working a little overtime. Nobody wants to work OT if there's no reward. Our 40-hour work week is plenty of time on the clock, so anyone who's contemplating picking up a few extra hours on top of that is looking for s significant payout for their time. We work extra hours so we can get extra pay.

Being a lady bartender isn't easy. You have to pretend to be interested in every patron's woes, while also being detached enough to avoid stalkerish behavior. During every shift, bartenders deal with antagonizers, party-meisters, and worst of all womanizers. But it's all worth it for the tips right? That is until you realize the worst offender of on-shift mockery is coming from your general manager.
