Customer Gets That Soil They Wanted


It looks like this customer wanted a few yards of soil dumped into their wagon trailer, and were very serious about having ALL of it dumped into their wagon trailer. We'd have loved to hear the conversation that led to this. "No, it'll totally fit, just do it."

Owner Accidentally Starts War Between Cat And Dog


The dynamics that can evolve between one's cats and dogs is something else, man. Sometimes it's a blossoming friendship that's nothing short of beautiful and wholesome, while other times, well, we get a little war like this. That dog certainly learned its lesson. Cats are clever little beings.

Cat - Vs.

Text - Tifu by starting a war between my cat and dog. S This all began last week after I decided to treat my cats to a new kitty condo. My boy loved it, played with the fuzzy ball on a spring and the fuzzy ball that dangled inside the hide away all the time. Of course this created some jealousy in my dog. The poor fuzzy ball on the spring didn't even make it 24 hours before my dog tore it off and decided it was his to tear up.

3.

Text - My cat became furious. He attempted his revenge by furiously scratching the dogs frisbee. Unfortunately we buy Kong dog toys that cannot be torn up by even a 65 Ib dog so his efforts were futile. Days pass and the cat continues to silently plot while enjoying the dangly fuzzy ball in the hide away. This only spikes my dog into action again and he tore the fuzzy ball out of the hide away.

4.

Text - This is where the payoff of this fuck up comes in, just hours ago. My dog leaves his precious frisbee next to the kitty condo and my cat sees his chance for revenge. I'm awoken by the fowlest smelling cat shit that had ever breached my nostrils. My boy cat usually has some stinkers and isn't one to bury them in the litter box, so I get up to clean it immediatly and rid my house of this awful stench. On my way to the crap trap I notice the smell coming from a different room than where thei

Text - There on the floor in the den is my dogs beloved toy and right ontop is the massive shit of revenge. I was both disgusted and impressed with the logic behind this unpleasant event but I don't think I will be buying the cats any more non dog proof items. Tldr; my dog ate the cat toys so my cat took a massive shit on the dogs favorite toy.

Man Calls Girlfriend Spoiled Brat


This guy asked the people of Reddit's AITA community whether or not he was in the wrong for calling his girlfriend a spoiled brat, because her parents pay for everything. People in the comments section all seem to agree that the dude was stepping way out of line with his "assessment." Basically, you jealous, bro?

1.

Text - r/AmltheAsshole + Join u/dddundermuffin • 17h 1 AITA for telling my girlfriend that she's a spoiled brat? My girlfriend (24F) and I (35M) have been together for almost a year. She comes from a wealthy family. They own several houses and buy my gf everything she wants whenever she wants it. They're good people, but I think they need to treat her like a woman instead of a child. I worked hard for everything I have, which isn't much, so it frustrates me to watch her coast through life. They

Text - So yesterday my girlfriend and I got into a very heated argument. She told me her new laptop had finally come. I asked her what laptop. She said her old one broke a few days ago so she ordered a new one. She got a top of the line MacBook, way more bells and whistles than what she needs. I asked how she paid for it but I knew the answer, her parents bought it. So here's where I might be the asshole. I was really mad knowing they probably spent 3 months of what could be someone's rent on a

3.

Text - I get that I was harsh on her but I really don't think I was wrong. She's an adult who has no concept of what the real world is like. I want the best for her at the end of the day. Reddit, AITA? 3.6k 1.5k 1 Share

Text - SadRegular • 17h YTA For how you handled this. Does she flaunt her wealth? Treat people poorly? Expect to get good grades because of her money? Her laptop broke and her parents bought her a new one. NBD. Did you walk in on her screeching at the top of her lungs on the phone with her parents demanding a top of the line MacBook or is that just the laptop what they bought? You've provided no evidence that she's a spoiled brat, only that her family is financially stable and your behavior sugg

5.

Text - MalsPrettyBonnet • 17h • Pooperintendant [69] Yeah, YTA. Spoiled brats throw tantrums for what they want. It sounds like her parents are very generous, and it's not really any of your business if they buy her a laptop rather than paying someone else's rent as long as she's not expecting you to do the same. Not anyone can be a doctor, even if she's given lots of luxuries. Maybe you were lashing out from your own insecurities. Your girlfriend is a saver. She has more money in a savings acco

Text - KitchenCellist • 17h YTA! She is 24. You are 35 and sound jealous that she comes from a wealthy background.

7.

Text - MissEssquire • 17h • Certified Proctologist [24] YTA she's 24. When I was 24 I sill depended on my parents. You're in a completely different point at 35. She's acting her age and you're being salty about it. And if you're in a relationship with her you should be grateful her parents are able to cover her medical school bills and she won't have a 6 figure debt to contend with. Also - do you know how hard med school is? That girl WORKS her ass off. Gtfo

Text - tealfyre • 17h • Asshole Aficionado [14] YTA that was rude as fuck. you started the fight because you're jealous and petty, she did nothing to deserve that

9.

Text - KatJen76 • 17h • Colo-rectal Surgeon [41] YTA you honestly just come across as resenting the fact that she's rich. If that's how you feel, you should break up now since that's something about her that may not change (and if it does, I get the sense you'd be just as irritated with her attempts to adjust to different circumstances).

10.

Text - GhostofKhutulun • 13h YTA. This really isn't your business whether her parents bought her a laptop. You're also presuming to know best, and that you should be the one to dictate what she does or doesn't need. You're also belittling someone who clearly had the discipline to get into medical school. And telling her that she has had everything handed to her? And a spoiled brat? That was inexcusable and infantizing. No wonder she won't talk to you. You do realize that she's probably broken up

11.

Text - ForteFlame • 17h • Partassipant [1] YTA. Not to be mean, but you don't really come off as being concerned for her wellbeing, you sound petty and jealous. Your comment of "anyone can become a doctor with the kinds of opportunities she has" really solidifies that. Yeah, she comes from a place of great privilege, but medical school is hard work no matter how much money you throw at it. If you're really concerned about this situation with her parents, you should talk to her about it, but this

12.

Text - Jaded_Goose • 16h Her laptop broke. So she's buying one she "doesn't need"? Are you serious? I'm not rich, but I enjoy buying the best things I can afford. Everyone in this world is at a different place and pace compared to others. If you can't keep up with her lifestyle, then gtfo of her life and choose someone that you'd approve. She doesn't need this shit from you. Or is this why you're so upset? Because she doesn't need you to get her stuff, and you really want to feel needed?

13.

Text - alpha_rat_fight_ • 17h YTA. I ruined my first relationship completely by being unable to get over the fact that my boyfriend and I came from completely different financial backgrounds (his, similar to your girlfriend's). My jealousy poisoned the relationship. It was ugly. If you can't handle the fact that adults from wealthy backgrounds have a different reality than others, then don't date outside your tax bracket.

14.

Text - CluckeryDuckery • 17h • Asshole Aficionado [13] ΥΤΑ You sound jealous and whiny.

15.

Text - binkman69 • 17h YTA, it's not your girlfriends fault for being born well off and having her parents support her. You're clearly jealous.

16.

Text - Kiwishea • 17h • Partassipant [2] ΥΤΑ. Bruh Ain't your place to dictate that, you sound so bitter. I could see maybe having a reality check talk with her if she was throwing tantrums or being rude/mean/vile in anyway or buying a new car everytime she runs out of gas, but it doesn't sound like it at all. I mean, idk, if you have the money, spend it

17.

Text - mamamaggie1619 • 17h • Partassipant [3] YTA. She may be spoiled but you are the one acting like a brat. Her parents have money and choose to use it to support her. She is using her privilege to attend medical school and put away money into savings. No where do you mention her rubbing her money in your face or lording it over you. Those are the behaviors that would make a brat. Do you even like your girlfriend? You put down her accomplishment (apparently she only got into medical school be

18.

Text - mrcleanslawyer • 17h • Partassipant [1] YTA-If she was lording it over people or being an uncompromising ass to people who don't have the same luck as her, yeah, I would get it. But from what you said, you basically snapped at her out of jealousy. If you really don't like that, don't date her. Don't waste your time.

19.

Text - Sweet_Deeznuts • 17h • Asshole Enthusiast [5] YTA. She's 24 and is in a position where her parents help out with school and other expenses. You haven't really said anything to show that she's acting like a spoiled brat. You sound like you're more jealous/bitter about her financial situation. I'm saying this as someone who had to work and put themselves through school as well, who doesn't have rich parents to pay the majority of my expenses. You should apologize.

20.

Text - Quicksilver1964 • 15h YTA. You're here dating girls 10+ years younger than you and expecting them to be mature when you yourself wrote a Reddit post that shows your jealousy? I'm so sorry she has rich parents that can help her. That must be so hard on you and on your ego that this young adult has much more money than you, at you mid 30s.

21.

Text - AmitBen • 15h YTA. A major one. You are dating a 24-year-old. She is privileged, and it can be obnoxious to people who had many more obstacles to success... but she is a 24- year-old medical student. You are a man in your mid- thirties. Find someone your own age if you want someone more independent (and appropriate).

22.

Text - AdelynnWilde • 16h YTA - Her parents bought their 24 year old daughter a new laptop, which she excitedly went to show her boyfriend, and you attacked her over it!? Was she not supposed to get upset that you're treating her like this? And that thing about med school too - if someone belittled my accomplishments like that l'd break up with them immediately. You can pay tuition to go to college, it takes work to actually succeed. You talk like she's a brat just because her family has money,

23.

Text - PassThePeachSchnapps • 13h • Asshole Enthusiast [6] YTA I want the best for her at the end of the day. Oh, the fuck you do. She's in medical school and will always have more than you, and the only way you can feel better about yourself is to spin this fantasy that she'll "get hers" someday. You think she should live in the "real world"? She is. It's just a better one than yours. I've worked hard for everything I have Well, better preorder a gravestone with that chiseled on it because that

24.

Text - jess3474957 • 17h • Certified Proctologist [24] YTA. I've been in your position before out of jealousy and it doesn't look good at all or make you feel better. It drives away people who care about you. If you were in her position you probably wouldn't think twice. Just because others struggle that doesn't mean your girlfriend should.

25.

Text - Rumble73 • 16h • Partassipant [2] Yes YTA. It's not your business, you sound jealous and of you sound like you don't even respect her so why are you with her?

26.

Text - pennylanethepuggle • 16h YTA Her parents are supporting her because they can. She needs a laptop bc she's in med school. Who are you to judge which one she should get? What upsets you more that her parents care about her or they can afford to buy her things you can't afford?

27.

Text - RedWomanz • 17h • Partassipant [2] ΥΤΑ. Stop being jealous of her situation.

28.

Text - Elle_Vetica • 16h • Partassipant [1] YTA. You're jealous, which is understandable to an extent- we have huge wealth disparities in this country and it's frustrating to see Bezos making millions every day while millions of people wait for food pantry handouts - but you have no right to take out your jealousy/bitterness on your (probably former) girlfriend. Nothing you said here reflects poorly on your girlfriend. Her parents are entitled to spend their money on her if they want. That doesn

Unprofessional Times People Failed at Their One Job


We've all witnessed some majestically unprofessional "not my job" moments. Maybe someone at work was running out of time, money or patience and just went with what they had. Those moments can result in stairways to nowhere, cans of peaches that magically contain peas, and countless other mistakes resulting in people and things failing at their one job.

Cheap Boss Has Employee Shovel Snow, Ends Up Paying Overtime


It's all too common to see an unhinged boss push their employees to their limits. This guy thought he'd save himself some money, but what he didn't know came around and ended up costing more than he expected. It's not uncommon that employees can enrage their bad bosses by following the actual rules.

1.

Text - Posted by u/SparkleFritz 1 day ago "You can't leave until you shovel ALL of the snow!" oc M This wasn't me doing the malicious compliance, nor the request, but the middle man who witnessed this gloriousness. I worked for a movie theatre company in a state that snows every winter. We had a contract with a snow shoveling company but my boss refused to use it because the costs of each removal had a possiblity of hurting his yearly bonus by a couple percent points (like $300 max out of $20,00

2.

Text - Unfortunately this meant that one of the ushers would have to shovel snow on the sidewalk. Since it's a safety hazard to block the emergency exit doors of a theatre it meant you had to shovel a path around the entire building and for each exit door. Ultimately due to the size it's about a quarter mile around the building. No one likes doing it because it's cold and shoveling a simple one shovel-length path can take two hours. During a snowy Christmas week (the busiest week for movie theat

3.

Text - out instead of us doing it we were told no, to which one of my co-workers (we'll call him Dan) said he would do it. An hour later after he had gone outside one by one my boss pulled each usher in and wrote them up for "refusing to shovel snow". When Dan came back in the other ushers complained to him about it. Dan asked our boss why and our boss said that it was because no one wanted to shovel all of the snow, and if Dan didn't shovel all of the snow he would get written up as well. This

4.

Text - Cue the malicious compliance. What my boss didn't realize was that it was the last day of the payroll period. Being Christmas week Dan had already accumulated 40 hours of work earlier in the day. My boss left right after telling Dan to make sure ALL of the snow was removed. We worked the rest of the shift and everyone assumed Dan had finished and left. It's 3am now and we go to punch out for the week but can't because there is a shift that hasn't been approved yet. Someone is still workin

5.

Text - We didn't hear anything until later that week when I was called into the office and had to write out a statement to why I let Dan work twelve hours of overtime. He had this smug look on his face like he had "beaten" us. He was not too pleased when he found out that all of our statements included him saying the phrase "remove all the snow" and that he refused to call the snow plow company. My boss was transferred to another theatre soon after.

People's First Encounters with Total BS


Everyone has a memory from their childhood that made them first realize that adults are at worst full of hate and at best, full of shit. There are blatant cases of favoritism, obvious lies, and straight up unfair policies. Sometimes students rebelled against unfair school rules, but typically you just had to roll with it.
