It comes to no one's surprise that schools care much more about the sports programs than the arts. For some reason, it is assumed that the arts are not as important for kids' education as doing sports, and so the art programs get much less budget and attention in an unfortunate amount of schools. The situation is no different in the school from this Reddit story, and the main problem might be with the school's principal. OP (original poster) is a mom who got a call from a school principal askin…

The patience that front desk employees possess is truly admirable and is definitely not talked about enough. They have to deal with an unbelievable amount of people who simply cannot understand the smallest of things, and overlook everything for their own benefit, and they do that on a daily basis. I tried being a front desk employee in a local hotel in my town, and I managed to do it for about a month. I just couldn't handle the guests' endless complaints and demands, and after a month of non-…

What's your worst first date story? We all have one. Some people fumble before the date even ends, while others make their date uncomfortable after the fact. After that, read about the company CTO who demanded to “ see every line of code in this project ” after becoming suspicious of his coders.

When one looks for a place to live, they have to consider all kinds of different elements that would allow them to have the best experience living there. Some of those may be - The size of the house, the cost, the neighborhood, and how close it is to a supermarket, a mall, or even a school. Those are all different elements that people have to think about when they are in the process of looking. Another extremely important element is the parking situation in the area and making sure you have you…

Home decoration is highly personal, as these people with very specific tastes can tell you. The things that you love to have in your home might baffle other people. But when it's your home, you can do as you please! The only way other people will get to judge your all-yellow bathroom or your jagged DIY sink is when you sell the place. Not all DIY projects are created equal. It's one thing to paint or wallpaper your living room to your taste. It's a whole other story when you start cutting up yo…

We're all for interior design, but some of these things are beautiful… and impossible to keep clean . Cleaning is a never-ending chore. You'll always have to do dishes and laundry, and those floors won't mop themselves. In any house, there are bound to be a few hard-to-reach corners or crevices. When that's the case, people tend to just ignore it. Who cares if the top of a cabinet is dusty, or if that one crawlspace has built up some dirt? Well, it's a whole different story when it's a prominen…

Every friend group has at least one cringe friend. So if your friend group isn't cringe to you… you're the one! It's one thing to act goofy in front of your friends. It's a whole other story when people do stuff in public that's wildly embarrassing. There's a whole type of cringe where folks decide to propose in public, whether they're asking for a hand in marriage, or asking a date to prom. For some reason, a lot of people feel comfortable asking someone they've barely dated to prom publically…

Some people think that feigning ignorance and waving their entitlement around would get them far when in reality, it just makes them look bad, or even worse, it simply encourages people to write stories about them on Reddit. Much like this hotel guest, who tried getting her way even when she absolutely knew she was in the wrong. The hotel's front desk clerk was working a night shift when a woman approached and asked to check-in. When the clerk tried to do so, they saw that the woman's reservati…

This might sound completely ridiculous, but before anyone thinks of buying a car, they should really consider whether or not they have a space to park it where they live. If they don't, then they simply should not buy a car. Another thing they should absolutely not do is assign a random public area in their neighborhood to be their own personal parking space because A. It's illegal, and B. It is just going to create an uncomfortable situation with the neighbors. But still, some people buy cars…

Any business owner who wants to be respected should learn how to accept criticism. If they are unable to listen to what their customers have to say, they will probably not get far. It is unbelievable that many people tend to completely forget that a business is a two-way street and that the business needs the customer just as much as the customer needs the business. The restaurant owner that is shown in this Reddit post was completely out of line when handling customers. It seems that the owner…

Everyone makes a mistake now and again, but when designers do that, it's kind of a big deal. Their work lasts long after they've made their little typos, and suddenly a product is out in the world looking unfinished or weird . Below are 25 off-the-wall errors discovered this month, from unreadable clocks to signs that never should've been put up on the walls. We have quite a few stairwells that would send most of us flailing down a dozen steps. There are a few subtle fails in the mix too, like…

Chocolate chunk with an extra dash of revenge?

It seems like no matter what job you are applying for, the interview process is always excruciatingly long. Even if the job is a cashier at a gas station or a simple grocery store clerk, people will treat it like it is the most important job ever, and suddenly you are not even qualifying enough to get it. Is it really necessary for an employer to know a potential hire's weaknesses? If All they will be doing is bag groceries, what difference does it make? This is pretty much the point that this…

Stories like these make it completely understandable why some people decide to move away and live in the middle of nowhere, with no one else nearby. This is the perfect example of how impossible neighbors can be, which sheds light on the reality of having to deal with some really crazy people right outside your doorstep. This Reddit story was told by a resident who saw her two neighbors arguing out on the street. Curious, she went outside to see what the commotion was all about. Apparently, nei…

There are a lot of scenarios in movies and TV shows in which a person is opposed to the removal of some kind of landmark, like an old tree or a historical building, and to stop the destruction of it, they do something extreme. Something like tying themselves to said landmark, or organizing a protest with other people in order to stop its removal. Though it might be a funny moment for television, it is intriguing to know whether this types of situation actually happen in real life. Well, I can g…

It might be hard to come to terms with the concept, but there should be total and complete trust between a manager and their employees. If a manager is unable to trust that their employees are there to do the best they can, then maybe managing is not the best thing for them. Not to say there aren't any employees who take advantage of a job, but if an employee feels like they are not trusted and are being observed with every step they take, they are definitely not going to stay at that job for l…
