No matter how much we complain about clocking in every day at the office or on the job site, we need that paycheck every two weeks–otherwise, what're we doing here? Although we may feel like we're on top of the world one minute, we could lose our job in a second...

If you do something badly enough , you might not get asked to do it again. In the workplace, you've got to do this strategically. You want to mess up some basic chores in order to get out of them, but you also don't want to be viewed as being bad at your job. This is common in many workplaces. Even though we all do dishes every day, in the office, everyone conveniently “forgets” how to load the dishwasher. Other people will pretend they can't figure out how to work the printer, and someone else…

Even though most people would go back to being kids in a heartbeat, becoming adults also has a lot of benefits. Especially being able to call your own shots, and do whatever you want to do whenever you want to do it, without having to answer to anyone. When I was a kid, the one thing I was so excited about adulthood was owning a car and not having to take the bus anymore. Now as an adult, even though I do have a car, I still find myself taking the bus to work, and I completely understand why yo…

It's 2024 and there's still a wage gap between men and women. Although bigotry in the workplace is no surprise anymore, you'd think that out in the purchasing world, money would speak louder than gender. However, in our next tale, a chauvinistic realtor shoves his foot in his mouth after assuming a woman's financial capability... And no amount of fresh-baked cookies, commission incentives, or low-interest rates could change her mind after that blunder.

When you do someone a favor, the last thing you would expect them to do is to be ungrateful. After all, you don't owe them anything, and you are simply doing something for them out of the goodness of your heart. So it makes no sense that the woman in this story was so out of left field with her kind neighbor, who at first, was happy to plow her driveway after seeing it was covered in 12 inches of snow. Driving over the ice that was soon going to form would be no easy task, and this man decided…

Even though she was only 17 years old, this woman was already an expert on koi and other tropical fish . It's fortuitous that she got a job to match, starting off at a retail tropical fish store. Whether you have a pet or not, spending time at pet stores is a fun and free activity to do. Many stores have tons of cats and dogs, some have gerbils or birds, and others have aisles and aisles of fish tanks. As far as retail jobs go, I imagine this is a pretty calm place to work most of the time.

Lots of people tread on eggshells around their boss, but are not always able to avoid the occasional crack that happens when you miss a spot. This particular story takes treading on eggshells to a whole different level, as in order not to upset this VP, you had to be… for lack of a better word, a man. OP was the 13th young woman to quit the job due to being ‘quiet fired’ after the VP learned she was getting married. How dare employees get married, am I right? How dare they live their own lives,…

Neighbors legally have no say on what the folks next door do with their land. So if you're in the midst of a neighborly feud and a grouchy ol' porch surfer is giving you a hard time about your garden decor, you could easily (and legally) say that that's gnome of their business.

Family and holidays often mix together in a variety of ways. It isn't all fun and roses… You need to walk on eggshells, for the most part, as everyone has their own special set of triggers. For example, maybe you don't want to mention that you're majoring in art to Grandpa, who thinks anything besides finance is a waste of time (This generation knows nothing!). And maybe don't mention that you've been taking yoga classes (our back, guys) to your mother, who doesn't shy away from her brutal opin…

This is what living with Norman Bates looks like.

‘I ain’t even own a washcloth before you'

A woman was told by a stranger on the street to smile more, and with quick-thinking reflexes, she uttered a response that most of us would only think of in the shower hours later.

That's gotta hurt

A girl was working out in an empty gym on the elliptical when a guy came in and got on the elliptical right next to her, despite rows and rows of empty machines. She was a little uncomfortable about this and decided to cut her workout early. That's when the guy took offense to her being threatened by her presence and decided to display how non-threatening he was by losing it on her and accusing her of thinking he was a predator. Uh, dude. Are you calling yourself out? This thread was posted to…

Maybe just keep your eyes to yourself?

Pretty presumptuous fellow
