Leave is as much a part of working as the work itself. It's important to have the opportunity to step away from your daily demands once in a while and take an extended time to relax or spend time with your friends and family. Workers who don't have this chance are more likely to face burnout and a general lack of motivation; workers who do will generally be more motivated and more productive, thanks to an improved work-life balance.

Few rules in life are as stead-fast as “Never wear white to a wedding.” You shouldn't wear any colors that might be mistaken for white either; creme, off-white, or eggshell, especially on a dress, will get you on the wrong side of the couple's family for eternity. Even if you manage to smooth things over with the couple themselves and maintain contact, you'll still be forever known as “that one friend who wore white." Now, if you shouldn't wear white to a wedding, you certainly shouldn't wear a…

Some friend groups last forever, others dissolve over time, and some, like this one, break up in a dramatic fashion . You make friends in high school or college, and over time, you might find that you have less and less in common. The classes you bonded over in college aren't there to tie your friendship together after you graduate, and life circumstances mean that someone you were once close with might have entirely different priorities now. It's one of those awkward parts of life that have to…

Weddings seem to be trendy at the moment, which means the bridezillas of the world are emerging. The thing about bridezillas is they come in many shapes, sizes, and personalities. From personal experience, there are the bridezillas that you always knew would be bridezillas, the ones you think will be bridezillas who turn out to be shockingly fine, and the bridezillas who you never would have expected would be bridezillas. The latter, of course, is the most shocking breed of bridezilla. For the…

This bride and groom might as well just elope at this point. There's already too much drama about this ceremony. For starters, of course, we want to acknowledge that there is absolutely nothing wrong with a dry wedding. We understand and are sympathetic to those wishes. But to choose to cut wedding costs by refusing to provide any other beverages is simply too far. You might as well tattoo the words “My Wedding is Boring” to your forehead. As many folks in the comments pointed out, there are nu…

Who knew that a cake really can make or break a party? Seeing the instructions you made for the order on the final product has got to be infuriating upon delivery. I guess you got exactly what you ordered, though. Then, of course, there's the lazy misspelling (i.e. “congrations” instead of “congratulations”). However, upon further reflection, one has to wonder why we don't just say “congrations” in life. I mean, it sounds better, it's easier to spell, and who has the energy for all those excess…

Don't do what this self-obsessed woman did at her sister's engagement party! This sister was way too patient with her entitled influencer sister . As this OP explains, she and her fiance planned a fun party for their upcoming wedding, with the engagement dinner being held at a fancy restaurant. The OP really wanted this to be her special day. So she warned her influencer sister ahead of time to not take a million pictures and interrupt the evening with intrusive photo-taking and posting. As OP…

This groomzilla had a mouthful to say to one of his wedding vendors. But luckily, this vendor is not new to the scene — or to cranky clients being totally demanding and insane.

For anyone who has ever had to deal with a crazy bridezilla, this story has the kind of triumphant ending bridezillas deserve.

People who desire absolute control over a situation love ultimatums. The problem with ultimatums is that the person you're setting the ultimatum with might call you on your bluff, leaving the illusion of any control you had over them shattered—along with the entire relationship. Weddings can be stressful times and leave the couple at the frayed ends of sanity as they try to manifest the perfect day. This can bring the absolute worst out in people, bringing down the facade of their personality a…

“My sister is trying really hard to become famous online ,” this woman wrote, sharing why she's actually so fed up with her sister's attention-seeking habits. Many influencers online create carefully crafted Instagram feeds and Facebook profiles. Their whole lives look gorgeous, aesthetically pleasing, and basically perfect. However, what their viewers don't see is the behind-the-scenes action. Just how far would an influencer go to get the perfect picture? We don't even want to know! But these…

Beggars can't be choosers, not even if you were on American Idol!

“I mean SPECIFICALLY asked for cash gifts," wrote this bridezilla who was steaming mad at her wedding guests.

People really think they can get away with wretched behavior at their own weddings, don't they?

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes: at this wedding, there's no going back from the groom's big mistake. Told from the photographer's point of view, this wedding sounds like a nightmare from the moment it began. The OP, u/Icy-Reserve6995, posted a three part story . She writes that although she works as a dog photographer, she offered to photograph her friend's wedding for super cheap. She showed up before the ceremony to shoot for hours, working from 11AM until 7:30PM. However, these were no…

The lack of accurate information and general misunderstanding of anaphylactic reactions in the wider population astounds me. My leading theory for this is that it all goes back to the “People don't understand what they can't see.” discussion that is so pertinent when it comes to other unseen injuries and illnesses like traumatic brain injuries. “You look fine, so you must be fine!..” the same thing your mother used to tell you before she sent you to school with the flu. People generally don't u…
