Someone on AskReddit asked for people to share what the last straws were for them at work before they rage quit their jobs. The resulting insights are filled to the brim with frustration and people just plain old getting to the end of their tolerance for BS. On a totally different note, you could strike gold, and end up like this guy who got hired, was never told what to do, and managed to stay on for months.

This business owner has a history of taking absolutely no shit as well as having an incredible mouth on em. Basically the perfect combo to stop any rude and annoying customer in their tracks. Seriously, check out what this guy said to a private school when he upgraded their charity before them. Total Legend.
It starts off with an interaction between the customer and the admin manager, then after enough annoyance, Chelsea brings in the big guns.

He just wanted to find his sole mate. This girl was contacted by a guy from her old college marching band. He was asking for sexy foot pictures. That alone is enough to turn some heads, but add in the fact that they hadn't spoken in 7 years, and you've got a cringeworthy masterpiece on your hands. She decides to put it to a poll, and after the internet speaks in favor of the photoshoot, she absolutely overdelivers!

Rachel R. Romero is a developmental neuroscientist and speech-language pathologist who just happened to sit next to a kid with nonverbal autism on a plane. After the father warned her about his son's behavior, her job training kicked into gear and she ended up doing some communication exercises. Pretty cool and interesting chance encounter. If you want some more feel-good stuff, here are some wholesome memes to give your day a healthy pep talk.

Let's cut to the chase, kids are dumbas hell. We see it in them, and we even see it in ourselves when we were younger. We all have a memory of some time we accidentally followed a stranger around the store thinking it was a parent, or used to think poop was stored in butt cheeks, etc. Anyway, children do stupid things, and it feels good to know you're an adult who has made somewhat of an improvement since your own childhood.

The short answer is no it's the coworkers who are wrong, and also this person's joke reasons are hilarious. Since people can't be grownups and find themselves absolutely shocked when they meet someone with a missing foot or something, the world is chock full of disabled people having "C'mon man" moments.

Karen really played herself on this one. When a mere $10 coupon was mistakenly sent to her address, she thought it'd be a good idea to threaten the retailing company that she'd sue them if they didn't fork over $1,000 in cash. She assumed she'd scare them into complying, and she couldn't have been more wrong. There was a badass attorney with a southern drawl who was more than ready to leap at a chance to sue "Karen." And the rest is history. She ended up having to pay over a thousand bucks, all because she started up some beef over a $10 coupon.

By the looks of these classy meets trashy moments, we'd say that Target serves as a solid example of the place people go to, when they're willing to spend a little extra money. If these left you wanting the full experience of Walmart going crazy, we recommend checking these out to get your fix.

This is surreal and the fact that this guy did what he did for this long before just walking away has sort of an air of triumph to it. First jobs can be really confusing, so when you're a dumb teenager who has no idea how jobs actually work, and are then given zero direction from an awful manager, you can get down some weird rabbit holes.

Doctors, Nurses, certified nursing assistants, pharmacists, and anyone even tangentially related to medicine constantly have to talk to people who have no basic understanding of how their own body works. Patients will do stupid things, lie, and even deny the most WTF stuff. It's kind of sad to think about where we'd be without medical expertise, and it's flabbergasting to see what people think is healthy behavior.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. This neighbor was illegally extending his property line into protected land and got nailed for it. Had he been nicer to his neighbors, he may not have been completely screwed, but hey, he flew too close to the sun. Sometimes when people take up too much space, the universe calls on someone to mess with them, like this guy who got petty revenge on a selfish parker with a fake note.

Gambling addictions are real, and casinos make it incredibly easy for people to lose everything, so naturally the people who work there have seen some incredibly not right shit. As fun as gambling can be, it's important to remember that you are not special, luck is fake, and casinos aren't your friend. That said, to ensure the world isn't completely bleak, here are some funny times people got moderately lucky and here are some other times really unlikely stuff happened against all odds.

This incompetent Karen should absolutely have not been the company's CFO. And the reason boils down to the fact that she was dismissing other people's opinions because she put more trust in her calculator that didn't properly calculate the order of operations.
