That coworker is going to regret being so vocal about this employee's tardiness.

Petty doesn't even begin to describe this CEO . She seems like the kind of boss who sucks the air out of a room when she walks in; everyone walks on eggshells around her, and she refuses to give credit where it's due. That kind of boss is hard to work for — even if you're also in the c-suite. Some bosses really dislike giving any kind of positive feedback or encouragement. Instead, they can only point out the negative. In the story that u/aikdxz shared to r/MaliciousCompliance, they write that…

The amount of disrespect for students who work continues to astound us...

Getting injured at work—while terribly unfortunate—is basically a “Get Out of Jail Free" card, which ensures your workplace isn't going to cross you or try any funny business any time soon… at least it should be. Any employer in their right mind knows that if an employee gets injured in the workplace, they should stay well clear and follow the advice of medical professionals and let the L&I claim play out. Even after the employee returns they know they'll likely be safe from anything action tha…

The lengths that employers go to get what they want are baffling these days.

The bad part about an unpaid lunch break is there's a whole hour in the middle of your day that you're not getting paid for, meaning you're stuck at work for that much longer before you finally get to escape the prison and go home. On the other hand, the great part about an unpaid lunch break is there's a whole hour in the middle of your day that you get to yourself to eat your lunch, get out for a walk, and worry about other things in life outside of your to-do list and your boss's whims. Of c…

Some people are just mean, through to the core. Having one of these people as your boss is always going to be a bad time as they're going to use you as a verbal punching bag, taking their rage out on you repeatedly, time and time again, in order to fuel their unstable, diminishing ego. These bosses will make a point of making a point by going off at someone publicly—and often—as if doing so makes them somehow more important than the person they're screaming at, rather than making everyone aroun…

Managers do not have your best interests at heart.

We also wish we could have seen the look of defeat on this guy's boss's face. When you first start your job, you have no idea what your boss is going to be like. As you interview, you might talk to your direct boss once or twice, and you can probably get a good first impression of them, but it's hard to know what your day to day life will be like. Even if your boss seems great from the start, they might start to turn on you after a while, which is apparently what happened with this person's bos…

Let's be honest: showing up six minutes late every once in a while is not going to make or break anything no matter what your line of work is. As long as work generally gets done in a timely and thorough manner, employers and employees should just accept the fact that things happen. People get stuck in traffic. Folks need their grande iced coffee with oat milk. Sometimes you don't even have an excuse and you just needed those six extra minutes of sleep in order to power through the rest of the…

Negotiating leave during the interview process can be tricky. Do you mention it to ensure you can take that vacation you already planned? Or do you not mention it, helping your chances of getting the job but drastically increasing chances that you won't be taking that vacation? If you choose to bring your leave requirements to the table of negotiation, the hiring manager then has the option of saying yes or no, or passing over you completely for the crime of having a personal life—it's all with…

Say goodbye to free tech support and homemade office snacks…This guy has reached a breaking point with their boss , and I don't blame them for not wanting to do work they won't be recognized for. At many jobs, your role is laid out for you in crystal clear terms. In some office places, however, there are unspoken tasks that some people will take on in addition to their job duties . Maybe you're the one who brings in a birthday card for your coworkers and gets everyone to sign it. Or perhaps you…

Almost nothing good can come from a post-termination meeting.

Companies today are always complaining about labor shortages and how the workforce is getting ‘too lazy’ to go back to work. Au contraire you silly nepo-CEO's, it's not that there aren't any employees willing to work anymore, it's just that they're not willing to go back to work with no benefits, meager salaries, and to work overtime lining the pockets of a hypocritical boss that sends one email a week for a $500k annual salary.

There will be moments throughout your life that really stick with you, great experiences, or hard lessons that become formative parts of who you are and what you want to do. These “core memories”

The hypocritical relationship that bad bosses tend to have with PTO is increasingly infuriating.
