Time to take a break from your screens for a few hours and enjoy the great outdoors . After spending ten hours a day glued to your iPhone screen, it's so refreshing to take a few hours to reconnect with some trees and grass . It can be so relaxing to hike in the sunshine, breathe in fresh air, and listen to the birds sing and the bugs hum. Hiking itself can also be a rewarding activity. Alongside the exercise, many paths lead up to a gorgeous vantage point or waterfall. However, things don't al…

It's snow season again and you know what that means– city slickers wearing jeans on the lift, clogging up the bunny slopes, and tearing apart the moguls. For an avid skier or snowboarder, there's always a love-hate relationship with the newbies. While we're happy that others are interested in a snow sport, it can get a little dangerous on the mountain when the new kids on the block are trying to get Insta-famous and spiraling out of control.

Be careful who you lend your house keys to… This person found out firsthand what can happen when you entrust the wrong person with something so important. While on vacation, this person caught someone snooping around in their belongings . They never would've caught this woman except that they were alerted by their security system. The OP, u/No-Coat-7393, caught this person red-handed. In the old days, it was much easier to snoop around, especially if you knew someone was out of town. It's fun t…

Since when were PTO and WFH the same thing?

To avoid giving employees actual real benefits, a lot of big companies have adopted the notion of ‘unlimited PTO’. After numerous studies have shown that employees with unlimited days off actually take fewer vacations, every CEO and supervisor within 1,000 leagues jumped on the bandwagon.

Sometimes you punch in a number on your phone to call someone, and a total stranger ends up on the other line. You called the wrong number, no big deal. Then you do it again, and again… and again. Until the person on the other side is wondering why it's so hard to call the RIGHT number. It's a fair question. This woman was contacted via text 5 times over the span of a year and a half, and it was always the same person inquiring about the same thing… A horse. The woman, OP, had no idea what they…

If you've ever worked at the front reception of a hotel, you will have heard it all. From, ‘This is the first time I’ve ever been asked to do this', to ‘I have never heard of city fees’, people will say anything to convince you to let them off easy. The funniest, most ironic part of it all is they usually say something along the lines of, ‘I’ve traveled ALL AROUND THE WORLD, and I've never heard of such a policy'. Immediately you roll your eyes… If they really are so ‘well-traveled’, then this…

There is a reason why some people refuse to go on cruise ships. Perhaps these folks are suspicious about what's happening behind the scenes. Perhaps there's a fear of a Jack and Rose Titanic moment. Perhaps these tourists simply have better things to do with their vacation money. For the folks who never trusted cruise ships for a second, this thread, which was posted to the r/AskReddit subreddit, will likely confirm their suspicions. From water pipes bursting to lice infestation to live enterta…

Imagine working at a company for nine years and suddenly learning that your three weeks of paid time off will now be significantly reduced to only one week. First of all, for some of you, you might be thinking that the initial PTO plan was not exactly generous for a loyal employee who has stuck around for nearly a decade. That is a red flag in and of itself, but now the new PTO policy that is about to be enforced is pretty much as insulting as it gets. The new policy, included in a screenshot b…

Too often, I've seen tourists ignore big blatant signs in their own native language that read, ‘Do not enter'. But enter, they do. Sometimes they get lucky, while other times, not so much. And I'm not speaking from a ‘high and mighty’ place, because I myself have ignored instructions and had to pay the price. One person posted a question to r/askreddit, asking which unwritten rules tourists always seem to ignore when they are on vacation abroad. There is a whole variety of answers from people l…

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

You may be smarter than a bear, but there's no way you're stronger or faster! And if you think you could take on a charging bear, then the bear is also smarter than you. The USA is full of gorgeous national parks . No two are alike, and they vary greatly from state to state. Some are great for hiking and exploring mountains, while others, like Yellowstone, have hot springs and natural beauty that draw in lots of admirers. You'd think visitors would want to read up on park information, or check…

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.

The holiday season is hardly the time to prank poor unsuspecting souls in the middle of the night, but that is exactly how these youngsters decided to spend theirs. Also, they enjoyed bothering their neighbors with loud music, but let's start at the beginning. One hotel guest who we'll call OP, was staying at the 'Milton' for most of the festive season. He was tired and was not in the mood to party. But there were lots of parties going around, which makes sense, because we're halfway into Decem…

Have you ever woken up to your morning alarm and thought, ‘I don’t feel like working today'? Most of the working class has felt this to some degree. The urge to quit your job without notice is so strong for some that they'll even call in sick or fake a doctor's appointment just to avoid another moment in the workplace. I get it, some days can be rough. But what about Christmas? Is that a day that anybody can bail on after waking up on the wrong side of the bed?
