'Mental is hocus, health not pocus': 20 Hilariously hard to read signs

'Mental is hocus, health not pocus': 20 Hilariously hard to read signs

Graphic design is not these people's passion. And that's okay! They're just regular people making regular signs, for reasons such as “don't park in front of this trash can.” Oh wait… we also have a few professional signs in here too. They're quite hard to read, yet they can be found in restaurants or in advertisements. I think sometimes the graphic designers will make a sign, and their client keeps picking at it. They want it to be prettier or more attention-grabbing. So the artist reworks it a…

Hotel guest attempts to rig the system by claiming he didn't check in and demanding a refund, front desk clerk calls on his bluff: 'I can prove you are lying'

Everyone wants to know what tricks they can use to try and rig the system, especially if it means they can save money. It doesn't matter who is on the other side of that exchange, as long as you come out better on the other side, right? Well, no. As fun as it can be to find little ways to “save” money, there is a clear line between using acceptable little tricks to spend less money or get better deals, and actually lying and cheating others. The hotel guest in this Reddit story tried to rig the…

Job candidate forced to sit on the floor while waiting an hour for her interview after other employees refused to give her a seat: 'I felt invisible'

No matter how desperate one might be for a job, there are some things they should never let happen to them while interviewing, and being forced to sit on the floor is one of them. I honestly don't know how the woman who wrote this Reddit story could stand (pun intended) the way she was treated in her job interview. When she arrived at her interview, she was told to wait for the employer in a lobby area and was surprised to see that the area was occupied by a few other people, who were taking up…

Resident blocks neighbor's gate with waste, ensuring they can't leave their house, as payback for neighbor refusing to clean up when trimming his trees: ‘Ever heard of a dumpster?’

People who tend to procrastinate know how hard it is to complete even the smallest of tasks. That is why many procrastinators will testify that they find different methods to get themselves to complete their tasks. One of the most popular methods that people follow is the 2-minute rule – If the task is going to take you less than two minutes to do, don't let yourself ignore it or add it to your to-do list, do it immediately. That is what the neighbor in this Reddit story should have done, becau…

Entitled hotel guest demands immediate service despite clerk having to leave desk to help another guest, leading to a dispute in the lobby: ‘What is your problem?’

Entitled hotel guest demands immediate service despite clerk having to leave desk to help another guest, leading to a dispute in the lobby: ‘What is your problem?’

When you are a kid, you constantly get told by your parents that ‘patience is a virtue’. And even though you have no idea what that phrase means, you slowly learn what patience really is and how to use it. The problem is, that more often than not, the adults who constantly preach patience, have none of their own to show for. Like the hotel guest in this Reddit story, who could not patiently wait even 3 minutes for the clerk to return to their desk after assisting another guest. Why would you wa…

‘I gave your prize to someone else’: Woman wins basketball game tickets in a benefit raffle only to discover the donor has already given them to someone else

Most people never win a single thing in their entire lives. As kids, you do everything to get a prize of some sort, whether it is a stuffed animal in a fair or a silly trophy from a bingo game, it is always fun to win a prize just because. I never won a thing in my life, and I pretty much gave up on my hope to ever win anything, so I cannot begin to imagine how disappointing it might be to actually win something and have it taken away, like what happened to the person in this Reddit story.

‘Get your story straight’: Man backs into stranger's car while texting and driving, claims to the insurance company that he wasn't even in the car, leading to a pursuit of evidence

‘Get your story straight’: Man backs into stranger's car while texting and driving, claims to the insurance company that he wasn't even in the car, leading to a pursuit of evidence

We might not like to acknowledge this, but as grownups, we sometimes have to own up to our own mistakes. Being an adult means that we can't just ignore our mistakes, hoping that they will go away on their own, and we definitely cannot lie and try to drop them on other people. Unfortunately, a lot of adults try to back out of their mistakes when it comes to everything that happens on the road – breaking the rules, road rage, and even hitting other cars, all of these make the road feel like a gia…

'Then a chicken walks out of the back room': 15 Home installation workers share the craziest things they've peeked at in stranger's homes

Home is where the heart is, and it's also where all of your strangest belongings remain. No one knows this better than folks who have jobs that require them to randomly step foot inside people's homes , often with very little warning. Say, for example, a plumber. Maybe your shower isn't draining or your toilet just won't work. You have to call the plumber, and there's usually a set timeframe during which they'll show up to solve your issues. But for some reason, people won't clean up their home…

‘This is public property’: Residents attempt to close the communal pool to throw a private party with their friends, neighbors report them to management

So many problems in the world could be so easily solved if people simply talked to each other and voiced their wants and needs. Instead, we constantly hear of grown adults behaving like toddlers because they don't know how to handle other adults out in the real world. This story is the perfect example of people trying to get their way in the most twisted way possible, instead of just talking and solving their problems like regular people. OP (original poster) is a resident in an apartment compl…

‘Never doing an AI interview again’: Online job interview goes south after AI assistant asks candidate to pose for a full body scan

‘Never doing an AI interview again’: Online job interview goes south after AI assistant asks candidate to pose for a full body scan

It should be common sense that if you are looking for a human to do a certain job, the interviewer for said job should also be human. The whole concept of video interviews, or even worse, being interviewed by AI assistants, should not even be on the table. It makes the candidate feel like the company does not take the job search seriously and generally starts the whole process with a bad taste in their mouths. The job candidate in this Reddit story will probably agree with these statements afte…

Homeowner hires cleaning lady for his house, she refuses to clean if people are present: ‘She wouldn't even let me meet her'

Some professions require total trust from total strangers, which can become quite a complicated task for people. Hiring a nanny, for example, can be a stressful experience for parents, since they are trusting their children with a person they do not know. This also applies to hiring a cleaning person to clean your home, as you have to trust them while they roam your house in order to clean it. They can easily steal some of your possessions, but you just have to trust that they are loyal and wil…
