Karen Leaves Nasty Note For Server, Gets Embarrassed in Front of Her Entire Family and Kicked Out


This "Karen" found herself banned from a restaurant after she left derogatory written comments about her server. When she came back in with her family on a later date, she was informed by the staff that she was not welcome. This created a scene and caused significant embarrassment for Karen. 

The server, Redditor u/naptide, posted her story to Reddit's r/AITA subreddit to see whether she was wrong for embarrassing Karen in front of her family.

Commenters resoundingly and almost unanimously agreed that the server was completely justified in her actions. Karen's behavior had led her to be deservedly banned from the restaurant, and the embarrassment she suffered as a result of that was her own doing.

"NTA...She was rightfully on the "Do not serve" list. Whatever the rest of the party did was their own decision," replied RoyallyOakie.

"NTA. It's great that management has your back against terrible customers. You shouldn't have to wait on patrons who've treated you badly," commented Secret-Sample1683.

"NTA. I feel bad for the kid, but it's also a good lesson for kids to learn that adults need to be accountable for their behavior. 100% NTA," said GrandpaJoeSloth.

Technically Accurate Moments That Are Definitely Sort Of Right


Sure, we could do things correctly all the time, but where's the drama in that? We're busy people, and doing things in a way that is only technically right is a far superior option when it comes to looking clever and making people upset.  Doing something incorrectly or being wrong is obviously shameful, but being technically right or technically accurate is all about making the right call with style.

In this collection of beautiful technically accurate moments from Reddit, we have a mother who told an adopted child they were an easy physical birth for her, a doctor whose diagnosis didn't quite hit the patient right, someone who might need to re-learn how astrology works, and someone who reached out to a news station telling them they have a scoop. Just not the right kind of scoop.  

That's the beauty of technically accurate moments that aren't incorrect. They take lunch to the next level. Carry on!

Teacher Quits on the Spot When Their Boss Tells Them "You Can Quit at Any Time"


This teacher was working a part-time job at a bank to try and make ends meet after her husband lost his job. Her boss's poor treatment of her set up this brilliant story of malicious compliance. 

This story of malicious compliance was posted to the r/maliciouscompliance subreddit by Redditor u/Public_Pressure_4516, who shared the story of their compliance. 

Commenters voiced their distaste for these types of situations, wherepoor managers are leading their staff to leave in droves in these types of jobs, yet HR and corporate do nothing to address the manager's behavior. 

"I wish corporate and HR would look into why so many employees are leaving," commented Proud_Positive_2998. "But we had the same thing where I worked and both hid their heads in the sand."

"Sadly, it's become a fact of life that there will always be 'attrition rates'," replied Andravisia. "They just budget for it, rather than making actual changes that'll make the life of their employees better. Then there's the fact that it's easier to pay one or two dedicated trainers a higher salary for years than it would be to pay dozens of people progressively higher salaries and benefits."
 

Female Machinist Learns She's Making Less Than the New Hire She's Training, Internet Seething


This female machinist took to the popular r/antiwork Reddit sub in order to share her recent experience at her workplace. She had been training a new-hire machinist and discovered that the person she was training had been hired for more than she was getting paid. When she pressed the issue with her supervisor, she was just stonewalled. This led to her seeking a new role. 

Commenters explained that the current job market will be causing multiple instances of this to happen as older employees miss out on the more competitive rates new hires are earning. Others shared their own experiences. 

"As someone who's also worked in a handful of machining shops, good on you," commented Satirical0ne. "Many places these days will try to screw you if you let them and then try to dangle the job in front of your face. I'm glad to hear that you were able to find somewhere to pay more. Places like your soon-to-be ex-employer don't deserve skilled machinists because obviously they don't appreciate them."

"Good buddy of mine is a machinist with 30 years experience… The last 20 of which were with one employer (small shop in north Alabama)," replied skint_back. "He was making, get this.. $18 a(n) f-ing hour. Oh, he did get a jug of homemade wine at Christmas every year. I (had) been trying to get him to leave for years, and he finally did it last year. Took him about a month to find a machinist job starting at $30/hr."
