You give your boss ample time to find someone to cover your shift when you need time off , but chances are they'll still forget and bug you to do the shift anyway. This person, u/Nannyneedabreak, definitely gets that. In their post to r/AmItheA**hole, this nanny wanted to know if she was wrong for the way her boss was treating her. As she noted, she wanted to go to her sister's wedding, and like a good employee, she gave her boss a ton of notice — seven months notice, in fact! That's plenty gen…

Every worker at this company had a peaceful weekend after their boss cut off everyone's email access . This boss reminds me of cats who really want to go outside when it's raining, so you don't let them out. When they finally get you to let them out, they immediately get drenched and want to come back inside. They'll look at you with this squint of anger, but of course, it's the cat's fault. Basically, some lessons are learnt the hard way because you can't anticipate the consequences of your ac…

Since you spend so much time at work , you may as well goof off a bit. At least some of the people below feel that way. With a label maker, the possibilities are really endless! Your ability to be passive-aggressive towards that coworker you always roll your eyes at has increased significantly once you hold that label maker in your hand. Other people chose to create signs , which are also hilarious and seem to lead to passive aggression. The signs I'm most curious about are the ones warning of…

When working in any industry, you may find that you come across tight-knit teams of employees who often meet up in their spare time, whether for drinks or a meal, for some good old 'team building'. In this case, it went further than that, as the place OP was employed at organized a team building during the weekend, pulling employees away from their spouses and families, yet not paying a dime. OP approached their boss and exclaimed that weekends were an important time for her to be with her spou…

Some work weeks hit harder than others. This week, the wind was sucked out of your sails and you're spiraling towards Earth with nothing on your mind except happy hour drinks on Friday at 5PM. Thank god it's Friday!

This company pulled a classic bait and switch on this poor employee. Some companies will do anything to appear like they're treating their employees well, while in reality, the employees are pretty miserable. One example is the “unlimited vacation” benefit that some workplaces offer. They lure you in during the hiring process, telling you you can take as much time off as you please. But in reality, you still have to get the time off approved by your boss , and face the guilt-tripping they'll tr…

This manipulative MIL chose an inopportune time to pop over for a visit, then had the audacity to get mad about it. Early one weekend morning, around 8 AM, this woman's mother in law decided it was the perfect time for her to make an unplanned visit. The surprise visit left the OP furious, and started a huge fight with her MIL , which she chronicled on r/JUSTNOMIL. U/qwerty46538 shared that one weekend morning , her MIL started blowing up her son's phone with texts and calls . Since it was a Sa…

It may be Monday, but we're already gearing up for the weekend!

Ahh, it's Monday morning again. Your coffee is weak, the train was delayed, and you already have 186 unread emails in your inbox– it's gonna be a rough week. But where did the weekend go? Two days of leisure were simply consumed by errands that you had no time for during the week, weren't you supposed to relax at some point? Once again, Saturday morning leaked into Sunday night and now you're trapped in the corporate hellscape known as the Sunday Scaries. It's that feeling you get on Sunday eve…
