'Fine, I'll Book My Own Table Then' : Petty Customer Claps Back At Hostess Who ‘Smiles Rudely’ at Him, Controversy Ensues In the Comments


'The war on Toyotathon starts earlier every year': Car salesman and his manager get in a fist fight at the dealership, hilarity ensues in the comment section


Everyone knows that there's a ton of tension on the sales floor of a car dealership. Salesmen lurk like predators near the coffee pot waiting for unsuspecting young couples to show up and show a shred of interest in an overpriced new car that's exactly the same as the model the year prior. But little does that couple know, there's a whole gaggle of over-amped salesmen in the wings, fighting each other off for the chance to upsell another client to buy something they can't afford. 

Sometimes, that competitive nature get's the best of these commission-fueled heavy weights, and salesmen can get into tiffs that turn disastrous. 

A customer in the waiting room recently caught the most TMS-style footage of salesmen floor warfare this weekend. In the video, a car salesman gets in a brawling, multi-man fist fight with his own manager right there in the middle of the Toyota dealership. We get that sometimes you want to punch your boss, but most of us would never be insane enough to actually do it. However, this burly, gold-chained, hairy handed car salesman had reached his limit and the tension was simply too much. 

The comment section of the video is debatably the most hilarious. While it's clear that the fight itself is very entertaining, the commentary really makes the experience worth while. We'd give this comment section a 5/5 on service and ingenuity, making us suddenly really want to get a Corolla.

'She [...] told my mom [...] the milk would taste better anyways': Barista repeatedly gets an order wrong and refuses to use the correct milk


It can be incredibly frustrating when you repeatedly ask someone to do something, only for it to remain still undone or incorrectly finished… (or so my girlfriend tells me, at least.) 

Most of us will also agree that an incorrect or ruined food or drink order can ruin the one thing that was going to be great about your day. Now, most of us will probably be too diffident to do or say anything about our spoiled beverage, instead be resigned to our cup of overheated milk that has just the slightest hint of coffee, sipping it occasionally to reconfirm its unpalatability before it placing it to spend the rest of the day forgotten on the corner of our desk. 

While I commiserate with this customer's experience, it also sounds like maybe this barista is overworked at an understaffed cafe and is just quickly losing grasp of her final shreds of sanity. A little understanding for workers in these situations can go a long way.

Regardless, read on for their post, as it was shared on Reddit's r/EntitledPeople subreddit, and let us know your own thoughts.

'I hope this addresses your concern': Employee asks HR why new employees are getting paid more, gets ridiculous response


It's as if HR has become a parody of itself! This thread was posted to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit by u/GeorgeClooneysMom (what a username, she's definitely not his actual mom though we can certainly dream, can't we?). The employee in question recognized that new hires were getting paid significantly more.

 

When they brought it up to HR, it became clear that this is not the first time they have received these types of questions. In fact, their e-mail response was so carefully crafted that it is quite obvious this employee is not alone with regard to their concerns. Best solution? That would be to up and leave. As many people in the comments suggest, the best way to get a proper raise in this climate is to switch jobs. I wish that weren't the case, but that's just the current state of things.

'A very seriously unwarranted allegation': Card shop owner responds after absolute Karen leaves 1-star review accusing them of stealing the best cards


People will make up anything and jump over any number of mental hurdles to displace their own unhappiness onto someone else. 

This thread was shared to Reddit's aptly named r/F**kYouKaren subreddit and featured screen grabs of a Google review that had been posted on a local game shop's page. In the review, the reviewer accuses the shop owner of weighing packs in order to determine which ones contain rarer cards to keep for themselves, putting out the lighter packs to sell to customers.

As commenters have mentioned, there is some logic behind these accusations; rare trading cards often feature additions like holographic foil that adds to their weight—so a pack that contained one of these desirable cards may be heavier. While this may be possible with some unopened classic packs, nowadays, most trading card publishers will include code cards and other heavy additions to foil the plans of any would-be card sharks.

The owner wasn't going to take this accusation lying down and responded with a brilliant message back to the reviewer, refuting their claims.

Read on to see the full story. Next, check out this owner who set the record straight with a Karen when she left a 1-star review for a failed delivery during a tornado.
