Sometimes all it takes is for one person to pull the plug and quit to make others realize they have other options as well. When that happens, the entire team can turnover within months, with the last of the team practically sprinting to get out of there before the building collapses on them (—will the last person out please get the lights?) Of course, there are usually a variety of issues bubbling away under the surface long before the entire thing boils over. Management changes are usually a d…

Thank goodness this employee had a strong enough backbone to stand up to his boss. Otherwise it truly would have resulted in calamity. On the subreddit r/StoriesAboutKevin, u/alas_vikn has been sharing stories of their hilariously clueless boss, Kevina. Check out part one of the OP's hilarious office stories here , if you haven't read about the time this boss tried to clean a computer. As the OP explained, they've been referring to their workplaces as “The Flintstone Chronicles,” mainly because…

Working with someone who is constantly looking for ways to stab you in the back can be a tiring experience making you constantly have to evaluate every interaction—every little thing—to determine whether or not they could try and use it against you. This is bad enough when it's a coworker or other member of your team—but when it's a supervisor, it's a whole entire new story. For one thing, supervisors are typically more trusted, and their word will carry more weight than yours, so you're consta…

Of all the many frustrating experiences that are waiting for you when you arrive at work, there is arguably none greater than a coworker who refuses to pull their weight. Without fail, their dragging of the chain will hold back the rest of their team, who will have to pick up the slack if they have any hopes of keeping projects on track and hitting KPIs—keeping the ever-watchful roving eye of management looking elsewhere and the team's heads off the chopping block. Still, after weeks, months—ye…

We've all had the experience of being overlooked by an employer.

Talk about getting out while you still can!

We sincerely hope this employee doesn't fall for his boss's desperate shenanigans.

How does this boss think that enforcing these ridiculous new rules will make his employees loyal?

This person claims that their boss is only their boss because she just decided she was the Office Manager one day, and everyone went along with it. That seems like a recipe for disaster! You'd think that after working in an industry for ten years, this woman “Kevina” would kind of know what she's doing. The OP, u/alas_vikn, shares that they work at a stone company (and they've gotten in the habit of referring to Kevina's shenanigans as “The Flintstone Chronicles”).

There comes a time in your career when you have to stand up for yourself and stop taking on too much.

This Redditor's office drama has him wondering if he did the right thing.

This HR lady's blatant lie says just about everything one could say regarding the health of this work environment.

Be careful what you wish for, boss!

Let this story serve as a friendly reminder to never hire your in-laws to work at your company.

When it comes to names, this man is not playing around. Nicknames come naturally to some people, especially if you have a formal name that's common to shorten, like how many Williams go by Billy. Other people gain nicknames that match their career, hobbies, or personality instead. The man in this story from r/AmItheA**hole actually really hates the nickname he's been given by his coworker , and he finally snapped one day. The workplace tale, told by u/notmyd***name, highlights the importance of…

There are numerous workplace red flags in this story, but let's start with the fact that the boss made his problem the employee's problem entirely.
