These car mods did not turn out as intended. Some people get a car and have big ideas in their head about it. So what if the car is 20 years old and barely starts? That's just the starting point, and with the right bells and whistles, soon it becomes a 20-year-old car that's also loud and flashy. Lots of car enthusiasts want their cars to be souped up, but they don't have the cash to spend thousands doing it. So some of these people take matters into their own hands. They decide to DIY a car re…

Boy math is putting $27,850 into a truck worth $2,700

This truck driver couldn't believe what another driver was upset about. At least they had the ultimate loophole for getting out of almost any work-related scenario. The trucker in this story was driving their 18-wheeler through Texas when they encountered an angry driver. As a trucker, you have the unique privilege of getting to blow that extra-loud horn whenever someone bothers you. A regular car horn is a little loud, but the horn on an 18-wheeler can be heard for miles. It must be so satisfy…

These bosses decided to let their employees work harder, not smarter. Too bad their customers paid the price for their negligence! It's a snowy day, and you're driving to work. You, as a good citizen, took the time to grab your snow brush/scraper and spent like 20 minutes clearing all the snow off the roof of your car. Then, as you're on your way to the office, the car in front of you has a foot of snow on its roof. You have to swerve to avoid them as little chunks of snow fly off behind them!…

People working on the loading dock know how frustrating it is when others show up and park their cars in a way that obstructs access to the trucks that are supposed to arrive. In this case, a young worker was working at a loading dock that was expecting a big load of tech and products for a new office layout, and they were beginning to get a lot of equipment. OP's boss informed them to keep the trucks coming and going as smoothly as possible. OP's job was to get the unloaded company pallets and…

If you've ever had a car, then you know that finding a parking spot can be the bane of your existence. But there's good and bad ways to go about finding a spot. The good way is, if you can't find one then you simply leave the lot and find parking elsewhere. Super easy and devoid of conflict! The bad way is, you physically run into the spot in order to save it. This is exactly what happened to OP when he pulled halfway into a spot and a wild Karen appears out of nowhere to try and hold it with h…

One employee found themself working at a company that kept pushing them to bend the rules. Some industries are just like this. Stories about issues in the concrete industry crop up often, which is concerning when basically every building is made out of the stuff. Concrete makes up our sidewalks and roads, houses and stores, and even huge things like bridges and overpasses. This dude shared their malicious compliance story about what happened when they decided to reject the status quo. I give th…

There's something about driving vehicles that gets that “monkey rage” part of our brain all riled up, just simmering there, ready to do unspeakably feral things as if we're suddenly no more socially developed than a caveman during the caveman days… If you ask an expert (I'm not one), they'll probably tell you that it has something to do with the degree of separation we experience when we're cruising around in the relative safety of our own two-ton metal box that is continually propelled by a se…

Some people don't know how to pick their battles, like these next door neighbors . U/PipeOrganTransplant shared their neighborhood drama , which all started with a hedge. The OP loves their forsythia hedge, while the neighbors think it blocks their view . But the rules and regulations around them state that the neighbors can't do anything about the plants. So instead, they got creative, and tried to find other ways to bring the OP down a peg. There are some people in life that you just can't pl…

You're going to spend a lot of time in your car, so you may as well make it look nice. From vanity plates to colorful wraps to comfy leather seat cushions, there are endless ways to make your vehicle your own. When you first buy a new car, you have the option to choose a vanity plate . Instead of just the random string of letters and numbers assigned by the government, you can have a custom plate , for a fee. Some people put the things they love on these, like people who brag about being moms o…

This long-time employee was wise beyond his years as he let a new hire try to make changes in their company's warehouse . He knew that you can't always make people listen to common sense. Some people just want to be correct 100% of the time so that they feel powerful. Instead of wasting his breath on arguing, this long-term employee just shrugged his shoulders and let the manager handle it his way. New hires often feel like they have something to prove. Especially managers---they think that sin…

This company laid off a bunch of people , and the remaining employees are not thrilled about the downsizing decision. No employee wants to be part of a company that's a sinking ship. If the business you're in starts downsizing and letting people go, it can create a ripple effect. The remaining employees will be walking on eggshells around their bosses, not knowing if they'll be the next to go. And with their coworkers leaving a gap in production, some people are sure to be burdened with additio…

If your parent sets you up to get a job, it's understandable why you'd want to give the role a chance. However, for this person, the red flags were waving almost as soon as they met the dude who was about to be their boss. First impressions matter a lot, which is why some bosses will put on their happiest face while interviewing. That's what happened to u/iheartzigg, who told the r/MaliciousCompliance community about their disastrous trucking gig . It seems like the OP's boss managed to seem no…

Car people LOVE their cars - and some of them will do anything to stand out and improve their ride even in the smallest ways. Some people take care of their cars by making visits to the car wash, or opting for leather seats or a red coat of paint. But then other people are way more creative. After all, not every ride has hundreds of little Hot Wheels cars glued on to it! And if you're not jealous of the driver who installed a comfy brown couch in the front row, you just haven't viewed his cushy…

Sometimes you just feel enough is enough, right? Well, These truckers had had enough of people (including other truckers) blocking fuel pumps by taking their 30-minute breaks with their vehicles still parked at the pump. Any attempt to reason with these entitled people was just getting them nowhere, so they devised a scheme to pay these mother-truckers back and make them come to grips with their actions. This thread was posted to r/prettyrevenge by one of the truckers who executed their revenge…

Always look both ways.
