It's nice to see the right person get their well-deserved break, and it looks like this guy was not only in the right place at the right time, but also knew the right things and was the right man for the job. For some more goofy stories of professional development, here's the smooth Scotsman who turned a wrong number into a job interview and a cool boss who pulled a hire/fire switcheroo. However, some people aren't so lucky or well-prepared. Here are red flags hiring managers missed during interviews.

It's another episode in the wide world of mailbox drama. The rule was that mailboxes had to be 6 feet from the street, but no one specified in which direction. There's probably no way anyone could get away with this now, but that's what the past is for. What can we say except loopholes are great. Here's a dad's masterfully designed Basketball Loophole and these other loopholes people exploited for years.

Anyone who is able to spice up the workplace by not taking the job too seriously, while still getting the work done, and generally uplifting everyone's spirits is a welcomed addition to a team. It sounds like this barista is just the kind of person that you'll look forward to going to work with. At this point, I just want to read more of their names for other popular espresso drinks. For some more gold from Tumblr check out this Tumblr thread about an Ultima Online player who unleashed a nuclear revenge as a tavern owner on an unsuspecting town.

The key to enjoying this immensely satisfying tale of pro revenge is to read it in an Australian accent (or your best crack at it). Once you've checked that box off, it's time to dive on into yet another tale of revenge where a landlord gets too big for his britches, and then it ends up completely blowing up in his face. It honestly sounds like things couldn't have gone worse for this guy. And it also sounds like he deserves it. For another dramatic revenge tale involving a shady landlord check out the time that a landlord tried to backtrack on returning a deposit, until karma came right back around to collect.

An HOA or Homeowner's Association can either be a minor inconvenience or it can be costly dictatorship, depending on who's on the board. People have to deal with nightmare HOAs where they get fined for having visible garbage bins.Some people defeated the Queen Karen of their own HOA. And others just looked forloopholes in the HOA's monthly fees. The bureaucracy never ends.

There are far too many examples of senseless, outright ruthless individuals going out of their way to unleash havoc on perfectly peaceful mailboxes. Seriously, it ain't easy being a mailbox in this world. Fortunately, there are also a decent number of ingenious individuals that are more than ready to use their engineering brainpower to craft invincible mailboxes. If you got a kick out of this pro revenge story, check out this pro revenge story where a dad crafted an invincible mailbox amidst a road rager's maddening antics.

This isn't the first time that we've read about the HOA driving an otherwise completely peaceful homeowner just a little bit crazy. Unfortunately, the HOA seems to attract all kinds of Karens and petty tyrants that get caught up in wielding whatever "power" they have. So, it's nice enough to see someone successfully waste the HOA's time. I wonder just how much of that time that they'll be able to successfully end up wasting. For another tale of malicious compliance check out the time that a customer asked a restaurant to cut a burrito in half, and then how the restaurant maliciously complied.

This tenant was just trying to make things more convenient for their neighbors, but management wasn't about that. So naturally, things got very inconvenient for management. Why do people have to power trip anyway? It goes to show that it doesn't take much to throw a satisfying wrench into the gears of the powers that be. For more people standing up against totally stupid fees and fines, here's a guy who got hounded for trivial debt and sent them a dime and here's a guy who mudded himself out of a BS car rental fee.

We're big fans of the rare insults over here. You know, those insults that are inventive, cunning, utterly ruthless, and ideal for stowing away in your arsenal for the next time that you're inspired to crush someone's spirit in a way that they've never had their spirits crushed before. As it turns out, Irish insults are pure gold. They could definitely fit well into some creative writing as well, if you're ever on the hunt for ways to spice up that dialogue between characters. Check out some more rare insults that creatively roasted people to oblivion over here. 

The internet doesn't have to be all panic-inducing headlines and general news of apocalyptic events looming on a foreboding horizon. No, sometimes we can welcome in a sweet wave of wholesome goodness that uplifts the spirits. In this case, we have a loving daughter who takes it upon herself to tap into the world of Twitter to ultimately end up securing her dad a new gig at Costco. It's pretty cool when perfect strangers come together on the internet to help out other people that in no way will be giving them anything back in return. If you're looking for some more wholesome, check out these wholesome memes to hit the feels button. 

All hope is apparently not lost in the strange land of Tinder. Yep, as it turns out Tinder isn't a realm that exclusively hosts cheesy, bizarre, and downright shameless pickup lines. There are actually people out there like this dude that put in the extra effort to impress their matches with a bit of creative flair and self deprecating humor. The real question is whether or not this guy's strategy ended up working out for him. You'd hope that he at least fielded some kind of response.
