'New job bait and switch': Home improvement store hires electrician to plumbing department over actual plumber, this goes exactly as expected

There are certain things in life that just make sense: Like hiring a plumber to help in your plumbing department and an electrician for the electrical department. Well, this mysteriously nameless “home improvement store” got their wires crossed when this manager decided to nepotistically appoint an electrician to the full-time plumbing department that they had just hired a plumber to work in. When the plumber came to start their full-time job… they were told by the manager that they actually ha…

Security Guard Fired, Immediately Begged to Work Remaining Scheduled Shifts

What is it with employers firing people and then immediately realizing that they need their help? You might think they would have considered that before firing in the first place or, maybe, just don't fire people unreasonably if you're already short of workers. Is that too much to ask?

Update: HR Department Adds Confidentiality Clause to Micromanaging Rules Following Viral Thread

It's never a good idea to double down on a mistake. Usually, if you're doing this, you're so narcissistically blind to your own faults that you don't see anything you do as a mistake in the first place. It's the same logic as going “double or nothing” on a bet once you've already lost all your chips. It just doesn't make logical sense to put yourself even further in the hole by refusing to know when to back away. Well, this HR department clearly doesn't understand the principle of “double or no…

Dear sweet lord. It shouldn't be that difficult for anyone to see that maybe it's a little gauche to aggressively hit on grieving people? In what world, universe, or reality was this dude even expecting with his tasteless, tactless passes at a person who's obviously going through so much? It's sufficiently creepy to have to accept that people like this exist, and what's worse is that they're not even all that uncommon.
