Tumblr Thread: Cool Dentist Who Doesn't Give A Heck


Staring into people's mouths all day has gotta be a bummer, so it's fun to hear about a dentist who takes their job as seriously as a bored Walmart employee. For more weird stuff that happened on the job, here's a pizza deliverer's list of strange people they've met, as well as more people who didn't give a heck.

1.

Text - filledwiththislight Things my dentist has actually said to me: "Well, either the x-rays lied to me or you are spontaneously creating teeth. I'm going with the second one because it's way cooler."

2.

Text - "When was the last time you flossed? Your gums aren't bleeding which means I'm either not doing this hard enough or you actually floss your teeth regularly" "You don't need to do a fluoride treatment I just want to go check my facebook for a second and this is the best excuse I can come up with. Don't worry your insurance will cover it."

3.

Text - "Take a whole handful of toothbrushes, I can't order new ones in less ugly colors until these ones are gone." "Remember not to eat or drink anything for a half hour..or actually you know forget that go eat lemons and drink coffee right now. I make money based on peoples bad decisions, you should probably stop brushing your teeth too."

Karen Doesn't Like Neighbor's Lawn Mowing, Petty Revenge Ensues


This nasty neighbor should've just minded their own business, but instead they went ahead and tampered with the wrong lawn. It sounds like this particular Karen was just looking to stir up trouble wherever she could find. Check out some more lovely neighbors that detested each other over here.

1.

Text - r/pettyrevenge + Join u/carissa_24 • 2d 1 1 Neighbor didn't like how I did my own lawn... I moved into my house around the same time as my next door neighbors (new construction neighborhood). We both do our own lawns-they bag their cuttings, I self-mulch/leave the cuttings mulched on the lawn and don't bag. One day I mow the lawn and leave for some errands. I come home to the cuttings I had left on the lawn all raked up and thrown all over my front porch/ door with a threatening note tell

2.

Text - be worse next time. I went over to my neighbor's house, told her I would call the police for threatening me if she ever tried a stunt like this again and that next time she had a problem, maybe try talking with me like an adult and gave her my phone number. Her husband apologized and said his wife was batshit crazy and he was really sorry. Wife never apologized. I then promptly didn't mow the front lawn for over 6 months (no HOA). I made sure to mow the back yard and make a display of bag

3.

Text - carrying them out front for the neighbor to see, but left the front nice and overgrown. I also ended up having her car towed from in front of her own house. Coincidentally code enforcement can't force you to mow your lawn, but if you leave a vehicle on the street for over 72 hours without moving it...they'll impound. $600 later she got her car back and I haven't heard a peep from her.

4. Wow, another nasty neighbor in the comments section.

Text - Edit: because you all keep saying "he" and "him" referencing the OP-I'm a female..women can own their own houses and do the lawn too (or not in this case). 7.7k 328 1 Share BEST COMMENTS Misternef • 2d They sound similar to a neighbor I had growing up. We came back from vacation one summer to find all the bushes cut to the ground around the house. The neighbor lady came over and told us she cut them because she couldn't see in our windows.

Lucky Dog Has Best Day Of His Life


Just picturing the look on this dog's ecstatic face after that hot dog water was spilled is enough to melt the iciest of hearts. That dog must've thought it was a true gift from above. 

1.

Text - r/tifu + Join u/AntipatheticDating • 1d 1 1 1 1 1 TIFU by giving my dog unintentionally the best damn day of his life So this TIFU isn't as crazy or wild as others I read, but I thought others would appreciate how much l'm laughing but how many horrible regrets I have over this situation.

2.

Text - Let me start by saying it's important to note that whenever I cook hotdogs, I slice the package, take out a few, roll the rest back up in the plastic packaging, and fasten it all with some good old fashion elastic bands. .. Today. I did not. I couldn't tell you why my dumb ass decided to just fold the plastic over a few times and place it back on the shelf, but here we are. So my spouse comes running down in their few minutes between endless meetings to make their lunch quickly. We are th

3.

Text - So we're all in the kitchen, I hear the fridge open, and it suddenly dawns on me in horror that my spouse is MOST DEFINITELY going to go for those hotdogs I wrapped like a dumbass. I quickly turn around to say something, and my spouse in slow motion, wide-eyed stares at me as the hotdog package unrolls like a fruit-by-the-foot commerical and DOUSES my dog's entire skull in too-much-to-be- reasonable-in-one-fucking-package of hotdog water. My dog lost his SHIT.

4.

Text - Like a Christian grandma with the second coming of Christ my dog just tears ass across the entire apartment with the worst case of the zoomies I think we've ever seen him have. He proceeds to spend the next 15 mins singing our praises as the greatest humans alive as he rolls across every piece of furniture we own. I'm talking every. Piece. Of. Furniture. Now I don't hate hotdogs but the smell is weirdly overpowering, and every time I sat down on something else all I can smell is godforsak

5. Look at that wonderful doggo.

Bridezilla Cancels Tries To Bail On Catering Day Before Wedding


This bridezilla thought she'd go and flake out on a catering company that she'd hired, the day before the wedding. Well, that sleazy move backfired for her, and she ended up having to pay 3X the amount. Not only that, but she digs the hole even deeper and tries to sue the company, only to lose due to a staggering amount of evidence that worked against her. 

1.

Text - r/ProRevenge + Join u/madpandaswag • 3y 1 Bridezilla Catering Rage I posted this on pettyrevenge, but I think it belongs here as well. I use to manage a catering company for my boss while he was undergoing chemotherapy. This is one of my first gigs where I was in charge. The bride calls me at 1 in the afternoon the day before the wedding and decides she wanted a cheaper menu. She and her husband already paid for almost everything and it's far too late to change anything. I told her that b

2.

Text - demanded we either serve chicken or charge her the price of the chicken and she will not be paying for anything extra. I informed her that according to the contract she is to receive 150 steak lunches at a price of 50 per plate and it also states that she can't change the menu unless she does it at least a month before the wedding. When she hears this she flips the hell out and starts screaming at me calling me illiterate and telling me her fiance is a lawyer and they will sue me etc etc.

3.

Text - They end up firing me at the moment and I inform them that the cancellation fee is 90% of the cost of catering (which I was already paid for) and they start screaming at me telling me that I ain't shit and they can get anyone to cater for them and they are going to make me pay for it etc. They end up hanging up on me (thank god) and I had an inkling that I should probably keep making the food incase they call tomorrow and they want us to cater. So we finish cooking and the next day at 7am

4.

Text - he didn't say anything but I can feel how mad he is over the phone. After a moment of awkward silence I inform him that if he would like us to cater the event, he has to do same day catering (which is 3x the original price I charged him), he has to pay all fees in advance and the food depends on what we have available and ready and we also reserve the right to refuse service. He gets really pissed off at this point telling us this is extortion, he already paid for food so he didn't have t

5.

Text - As soon as we got to the venue, before I got anything out, i made the bride and groom sign the new contract and pay me completely in advance (22k) and left to deposit the money. While I was gone they harassed my caterers and threatened someone with deportation even though they were legal. He tried to sue us later and the judge heard the recorded phone calls, saw the contract and told him to pay my legal fees. I looked them up on Fb recently, apparently they are divorced now.

Employee Gets Bullied By Coworkers, Employee Gets Coworkers Demoted


The only thing this employee could've done to take their mission to carry out justice a little further would've been to sue them for their inappropriate behavior. Either way, a definite power exit. 

1.

Text - r/ProRevenge u/Audginator • 2h + Join 1 Bully me? Fine, but II start a fire as I leave. I posted in Nuclear Revenge, but was also told to post it here! Sorry its so long, TL;DR at the end! I worked at a fortune 500 company for almost a year and a half, I wont name names, but it was a shady company to say the least. I started in their quality department, but I was literally fired for being "too quality" for the quality department because I would report sales agents that were forcing crying

2.

Text - Im sorry to say I was far too good at this job as well. I got constant kudos from the quality department that I always hit my marks. I always verified and corrected information, followed procedure to a T, and even took on several extra projects just to help out, including preparing and sending gifts out to our higher volume customers on behalf of the sales reps. I was always on time, I was friendly with everyone, and yet I didn't quite fit in. As a matter of fact, only one person on this

3.

Text - They would constantly bully me. I dont mean tease me, I mean they would joke about forcing me to work in a broom closet, they would report me for cell phone use even though cell phones were allowed, just no recording or video calling since we would verify card and address information verbally, they would deliberately leave me out of company food orders and celebrations, and even convinced the manager not to promote me, and instead promoted someone who had been there less time with worse q

4.

Text - They would also berate me for the state of my desk. I will say I dont keep a super clean desk, but we are not customer facing, and it was my organized chaos. It wasn't old food or trash, just a general scattering of notes and trinkets that NEVER overflowed past my desk. The real juice here though, was about 4 months into this position, I started documenting all the bullying. Every instance, every word, with a date and time and often a reference within the companies system for where to loc

5.

Text - The final straw came on a fateful February afternoon. It was a Thursday. The one co-worker I got along with and I had been texting back and forth, mostly Craigslist ads for job openings and funny memes to get us through the day, because remember, phones are allowed. She goes to lunch as Im coming back, and I get called into their lawyers office. Me and my one and only friend, were being given formal write ups. Why? (Direct quote) "Your co-workers know you are texting about them and laughi

6.

Text - I was done. Beyond done. I put my head down, barely worked the rest of the day. When I got home, I texted my manager and let her know I was using PTO and Id be out Friday. spent the whole weekend working on my resignation, because I wanted it to be -just right-. You see, Id been there a year and a half at that point, and I knew a few things about how this shady company operates by now. I knew on Thursday this was going to be my first time ever to quit a job, and I wanted to do it

7.

Text - up right. I wrote in there specific details of the bullying. Dates, times. I mentioned I had many more examples documented. I wrote how it was known behavior and even condoned by the manager. I wrote about the write up. Then, after many critiques, I saved it as a draft. I walked in on Monday morning, 8 am on the nose. I didn't bother clocking in, and Id already cleaned out my desk remember? I sat down, printed two copies of my email, and then sent it DIRECTLY TO THE CEO.

8.

Text - I of course dropped a copy off with HR, and then walked out. Not a word to my manager. Only my one friend knew the plan. You see I knew theyd snuff out the fire if I said anything to them about why I quit. Sweep it under the rug, oh well, one more person who quit. By involving the CEO, I eliminated that as an option. 1. In 30 minutes their lawyer was calling me for an "exit interview". They were worried I would sue for a hostile working environment. In hindsight, I should've, but I was mo

9.

Text - I found out from my friend that I had in fact started that fire. The whole department was put under review for bullying, cell phones were completely banned, and the manager and her lackeys (last I heard) had been demoted. I also heard whispers that theyd dissolved it completely and merged it with the Quality team, but Im not positive on that. Im sure it didn't fix everything, but I hope they at least keep their hands out of other peoples desks from now on. TL;DR my entire team at a fortun

Ungrateful Psycho Boss Gets Instant Karma


In one fell swoop of anger, this boss managed to lose his entire digital marketing department, and had no way to dig himself out. Sometimes bosses forget that their employees are human beings, who actually have the capacity to ruin their day, like this boss who tried to play an employee, or this boss who tried to play Alpha.

1.

Text - r/MaliciousCompliance · Posted by u/beerbellybegone 4 days ago Boss: Think about whether you want to keep working here. Me: OK. I don't ocL Apologies if the English isn't perfect, it's not my native tongue. Nearly two years ago I started work at Company as their digital marketing person. After I started, it turned out that I was brought in to put out the fires left by my predecessor, the VP Marketing, who had a team of 4 plus himself, spent over $1 million in one year and brought in 5 dea

2.

Text - As you can well imagine, after a performance like that, I had lots of work to do, and very little to do it with. Aside from 1 or 2 paid tools, everything else was to be done using free tools only. I'm gonna do some bragging here, I beat the previous year's figures in all categories with 10% of the budget. When I started, I thought Bossman (Founder/CEO) had a really good management style, saying things like: "Your successes are yours, your mistakes are mine", and "The enemy of good is grea

3.

Text - Not to say everything was perfect, but things were pretty good. One of the main things that weren't perfect was that Bossman had serious anger management issues. As I said before, he left me alone but I saw him blow up at and fire other people for stupid shit. He lost it at me too once or twice, but he'd calm down after a coupla hours and things would be back to normal. If it looks like an abusive relationship, that's because looking back, that's exactly what it was. As the year came to a

Text - The other day we had a meeting, and it turns out that two months ago I made a mistake. It wasn't a critical mistake, and it was rectified within a few hours of discovering the mistake. No harm or damage was caused whatsoever to Company, but Bossman flipping LOST IT. I mean slamming on tables, yelling for the whole office to hear, what have you. Then he said the magic words: "Pack your things up and go home. Think about whether you want to keep working here". So that's what I did, and 10 s

5.

Text - Here's the part where it gets beautiful: My country is very strict on employee's rights (sorry, Americans, I feel your pain). His words and behaviour are considered an improper dismissal. By law he's required to give me 30 days notice of dismissal, which he didn't. When he realized his mistake, he convened a pre-dismissal hearing, but it was already too late, he's opened himself up to a lawsuit, which I'm already talking with lawyers about. Because by law he has to give me those 30 days'

Tumblr Thread: In Defense of Those Unofficial Worn Paths


It's hard to argue with human nature. Even the best city planner will try to make sidewalks that accommodate every parkgoer, but there will always be some random worn paths that you always find yourself using for convenience sake. For some more interesting Tumblr takes, here's a thread on Kudzu, the monster plant waging war with everything.

1.

Public space - starfleetacademy Follow Desire paths are just the best human invention because cities will spend millions on sidewalks and yet. Our little foraging brains will think 'too far cut thru grass for food' and others will be like 'other human have good idea. I follow' until there's a beaten path when there's perfectly acceptable sidewalks to either side starfleetacademy Follow User experience Design For example

2.

Tree - solitairians Follow these are called "olifantenpaadjes" in dutch (little elephant paths) (remember this for later it's important) and there's a whole facebook page dedicated to it, where people can send in pictures of these "elephant paths" all across the country and they get rated with stars. apparently, a city renovated its park, and ended up putting a tree branch over a beloved path:

3.

Text - of course, this meant the path had become unusable, which is an utter tragedy, so an anonymous citizen did the rational thing and got up in the midle of the night, went to the park, and cut the branch in half using a chainsaw. so like. this citizen should probably get arrested for destruction of public property right??? nah. the city just thought it was funny and even made a joke about it when the renovated park got-re opened. the only thing to come out of it was this photo, posted by a l

Mother-Of-The-Bride Wears White Dress, Maid Of Honor Asks Her To Change


It is not your day, mom. One of the maid of honor's many responsibilities is to ensure that the bridezilla antics are kept to a pleasant minimum. That most definitely includes mom showing up with a white dress, which is exactly what you're not supposed to do on the big wedding day. Never take that shine away from the bride on her big day. 

1.

Text - AITA for not letting my MIL attend my SIL's wedding unless she changed her dress first? (This happened a while ago, no big weddings during a pandemic for me, dw!) | (24F) was the maid of honour at the wedding of my brother and his wife (my sister in law). While we were planning the wedding, my SIL mentioned how overbearing her mom can be, and how she always feels bad asking her to stop being an attention hog. I told my SIL that on the wedding day, l'd take care of her, no matter what.

2.

Text - Sure enough, MIL pulls up to the wedding wearing a WHITE dress (something my SIL guessed she'd do). I saw her get out of her car and start walking towards the venue, so I pulled her aside before anyone could see her and brought her in through a side entrance. I told her that it was inappropriate to wear white at someone else's wedding, and that if she wanted to attend, she'd have to change. I had my SIL give me some of MIL's nice dresses, so I had a few for her to chose from. MIL flipped

3.

Text - MIL ended up changing, but made a HUGE deal out of it and went home early during the reception because she "didn't feel welcome". She still maintains that I was out of line. I don't think I did anything wrong, but I do feel really shitty for potentially being the reason my SIL wasn't able to enjoy her wedding fully with her mother (even though SIL still had crazy amounts of fun).

I do feel really shitty for potentially being the reason my SIL wasn't able to enjoy her wedding fully with her mother YOU aren't the reason for that - her mother is, both for wearing a white dress to her daughter's wedding and for the way she reacted to being asked to change. You did a great job taking care of your SiL's big worry on her big day. In NO WAY were you the asshole. Reply 297 ...

Text - Slab231 • 10h NTA - The fact that your SIL HAD DRESSES BECAUSE SHE KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN, shows me that the MIL would've ruined their day if you weren't there. I applaud you. You are one hell of a maid of honor and I would love for someone like you to be there on my wedding day because I know my mom is going to do something like this at mine. (She's talked about wearing "the white dress she never had" at my wedding, for some insight) Again you are an amazing sister and SIL and even thoug

Text - thescooobygang • 13h • Asshole Aficionado [10] F1 Award Woah. NTA. MIL is a grown woman who cried because she was asked to change out of a white dress at her daughter's funeral, and then went home early just to be petty. SIL was right to have you take care of her, good job! Reply 13.8k ...

Text - Nixie_D • 13h • Certified Proctologist [21] NTA You did everything right by your SIL, whether it was wearing a white dress or leaving early, or something else, your MIL was going to find a way to create some drama. Better she left early, dressed appropriately, than stuck around and caused a headache for your SIL. Reply 119 ...

Text - ItsGoodToChalk • 12h • Partassipant [4] NTA, you're a total boss! I heard once of a wedding where the mother of the bride felt she didn't get enough attention, so she left early faking illness. That wasn't so bad, but she was meant to look after the bride and groom's kids that night, something she insisted on doing for her daughter. The bride and groom spent their wedding night tackling three kids in a bridal suite not designed for a family. Reply 31 ...

Text - Coolfarm88 • 11h NTA. I wish I would have had someone like you when my exMIL showed up to the wedding in a white dress. My family ignored the crazy woman and his family gave her odd looks and cracked jokes about her "always being like that" behind her back. I had been bullied by that woman for years and didn't want another conflict on my wedding day so just ignored her too. I wish someone/l would have stood up to her crazy ass. You're a champ!!!!

Text - tiemeup_daddy • 6h NTA. Extra brownie points for you, imo, for stepping up for your SIL so she doesn't have to stress about it on her day. It was something you didn't have to do for her and, I imagine, quite uncomfortable. Glad you and your SIL get along so well! Hopefully your brother won't be posting on O r/JUSTNOMIL Reply 2 +
