It being International Workers' Day, Talia Lavin asked people share stories of their most horrible, unfair, incompetent and downright nasty bosses. If you've ever been yelled at for having to take off work for an emergency, or been fired for actually doing your job correctly, these might resonate with you.

Self involved people are a nightmare on their own, but when they want something from you for free, they make themselves your problem. Here are some laughably cheap doofuses who wanted people's stuff for free, all while being huge jerks about it. If you wanna see more, here's a raging dumpster fire of unreasonable choosing beggars.
These puzzled employers must've been speechless over the CVs we're considering here. That being said. Can we please hoist a cheers to the champion who dedicated his CV to bullet points about cheese.
Karma came around to collect. This is what you get when you don't pay up! The boss in this situation sounds like the absolute worst. Literally no ground to stand on when faced by the law.
Can't even imagine the look on this guy's face! Talk about your worst nightmare, when it comes to forgetting to clock out for a lunch break at work. No thank you. That being said, we're glad that it all worked out for this guy.
This guy's unforgettable job interview for a gig out in Silicon Valley took a weird turn, and ended with a hilarious, satisfying twist. Turns out those weird questions were outside the ordinary for the company...
This guy's Twitter thread about an "invisible advantage" he encountered when trading clients with his female coworker. The ensuing tweets are bound to stir up a cocktail of fiery opinions on the matter. What do you think?
This "green flag" interview tactic could be the game changer for you landing that next job, and hopping off the potential funemployment train. That, or maybe you're looking for a new job! At the very least it's worth a look.
These victorious employees managed to get their toxic bosses fired. Get ready for all kinds of dysfunctional, power-corrupted BS in these tales of horrible bosses.

Gotta risk it for the biscuit. Well, you don't necessarily HAVE to risk it. Sometimes putting on a safety harness would take an extra 5 minutes and that doesn't seem worth it. Anyway, here are some non-OSHA approved dudes in precariously hazardous situations. And here's some more safety fails if you're interested.
When Twitter User, Adrian Harewood , showed up to work wearing mismatched shoes, and lived to tweet about it; the rest of Twitter stepped forward to offer up their own experiences not being able to show up with their sh*t fully put together. The resulting thread is brimming with panicked moments that we all might (unfortunately) be able to relate to, when we weren't having our best days.
These panic-stricken employees found themselves smack dab in the middle of some terrible fails! Fortunately, it sounds like they got away with the Fail, and that's the biggest Win of all.
