Man Gets Caught Sleeping While On Duty
Maybe he had a tough night of sleep the night before. An unfortunate many of us have been there at one point or another during a job.

Well, this guy's face when he gets awoken from his restful slumber speaks for anyone who has ever been caught catching some zzz's on the job.
Manager Won't Make Customers Leave, Customer Stays Until 5 AM
Anyone who's worked retail knows that there are some infuriating customers out there, and sometimes they need a push in the right direction. This manager had it in their head that no one should be told to leave at 2 am, so this employee made a point to show just how bad of an idea that can be. It got results. For more customer stories, here are bold and mistaken customers who were at the wrong store.
Absolute Units of Gargantuan Girth and Powerful Presence
No one can deny the far-reaching presence of the absolute unit. The biggest, baddest boys in town are those absolute units brimming with authority. Those big girthy boys full of meat and moxie. It's enough to make you run and hide, or bend the knee and respect the power of the absolute unit. It's like one of those real life boss fights.
New Employee is Not Having Free Donut Day
Getting used to a new work dynamic can be stressful, and this new employee decided that they wouldn't be bullied into participating in free donut day.

Bride's Mom Isn't Told About Surprise Proposal, Unleashes Rage Saga
Hm, just a little bit of a gut feeling here, but it feels like there was a definite reason that the bride's mom wasn't told about the surprise proposal at play. Seems like she very well might've done something to mess up the whole operation, because she sounds like she's just a little consumed by her own selfish concerns. It's not often that you witness someone stage a whole fit about their kid's proposal because they weren't made aware of it, but here we are. Perhaps, take a deep breath, mom.
Toxic Coworker Won't Do Job Correctly, Everyone Quits

Wild Junk People Tried Selling on the Webs
We live in a world defined by stuff. There's just so much of it all, and sometimes we have so much that we don't know where it should go. We ascribe value to that stuff, whether it be in sentimental, monetary, or in joke form. People end up trying to sell that weird stuff online. Does anyone really want a repurposed couch bicycle or "rare" Dorito? No. Nevertheless, people keep trying to sell their weird and ridiculous junk.
Lingering Customer Can't Use Facilities After Close, Throws Tantrum
Closing time can be a dodgy period for employees. This lady brought her tea from home so it's unclear if she was even a real customer, but expecting to just stay as long as you want when all the employees should be off work anyway? What a way to live your life. Too many customers don't seem to get that closed means closed, like this entitled customer who expects a place to stay open late but can't handle rejection.
Polite-ish Ways To Tell Someone To Shut Up
Some of us are talkers, and hopefully you know who you are. There comes a time in every conversation's life when it's time for that conversation to end. Maybe it's when the one person starts talking about their favorite cat names. It could be when you find yourself saying "wow, that's crazy" for the fifth time. But being basically polite people, it helps to have strategies that are better than shouting "I hate you I hate you I hate you." Our politeness gets us into some weird situations, like these worst things people ate out of politeness.
Irreverent, Sloppy, And Downright Shameless Tinder Moments
Tinder has well established itself at this point as being a realm of absolutely absurd pickup lines, and rare, very rare actual connections between hopeless romantics looking for love on an app that otherwise is a magnet for tomfoolery.

Man Loathes Sriracha, Unknowingly Eats It For Months
This guy absolutely isn't alone in his profound moment of learning that he'd been eating a food/condiment without having any idea about it. It can happen to the very best of us. With that being said, it's quite hilarious that he managed to eat so many meals with the Sriracha included, without having a clue about it.

Or, maybe, just maybe he's learned that Sriracha is actually quite tasty, and can compliment many a meal out there.
Employee Quits Job To Avoid Toxic Manager, Coworkers Intervene
There are far too many terrible, toxic, straight up maniacal managers out there. It's a daunting wonder how some of these people end up in the positions of power that they do.
