'As soon as I saw them I lost my temper': Woman screams at fiancé for taking his kids with him on their vacation

This woman is giving major White Lotus energy. She blew up at her fiancé for "ruining their vacation" after a family emergency. She posted this thread on Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit and left her judgment up to the ruthless members of the AITA community. They were not kind.

 

The facts are these: the Redditor admittedly yelled at her fiancé for essentially being a good dad and agreeing to take care of his kids after his ex-wife injured herself badly. Who knows? She might have even yelled at him in front of the kids. She does seem to possess that level of entitlement, so anything is fair game. It's wild that she thinks her vacation is more important than his parenting. As one person said in the comments, this will clearly be their first of many fights like this.

Viral thread, 'Consider yourself on call': Employer demands employees leave their personal phones on and be contactable at all hours to come into work

The best part of the working day is when you sign off and go home; I don't care how much you love your job… there are no exceptions here. 

Once you've put in your 8, or 9, (or even 10) hours, you're finally free to return to your humble abode,  decompress… and start doing personal chores and obligations. Thanks to the modern workday, there's very little time to get all the things done that you'd like to at home; I'm sure each of us has several projects that we've been putting off due to constraints of time and energy. I, for one, still have to get that veggie garden set up from earlier this year.

Thanks to the boon of technological advances, our ability to remain in contact with our working lives while at home has increased dramatically — while the separation between the two has eroded into near-nothingness.

Well, in a declaration posted to a staff break room, this boss decided to do away with that separation entirely, declaring that all staff were (effectively) on call at all times. Images of the poster went viral today when posted to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit, making this one of the highest trending images on the internet. 

Commenters on r/antiwork were, of course, furious at the proposition of the alleged image, and the post sparked all kinds of debate and conversation around the problems with these types of workplace intrusions on private life.

Speculation seems to be that this image originated from an emergency department staff area — in my searching, I've been unable to find anything to back up this claim or the origins of the image. Although, based on accounts from people who work in these fields, it wouldn't be out of the question, as these sectors have suffered significantly with staffing thanks to recent global events.

'I ran stats on my dating app experiences': Dude creates detailed spreadsheet of app success rate, internet reacts

We all keep lists of our dating experiences in our heads, but this guy did a full analysis. Now, the fact that he reveals he is a 23-year-old straight male is perhaps the least surprising aspect of this Reddit thread. Nevertheless, the statistics and the success rates are still fascinating.

 

Let's start with the fact that across all the apps (he's on Tinder, Hinge, and Bumble), he met with 17 of his 226 matches in person. However, once the first dates actually happened, his success rate is overall pretty high moving forward (64% likely to spend the night together and more statistics you'll find below). The most interesting statistic from our perspective is the particular success rate for Bumble compared to the other apps. This guy has a 100% success rate when it comes to getting someone's phone number after a few messages on that specific app and a 100% success rate when it comes to spending the night with a date from Bumble. Fascinating!

'Come back, I'm speaking to you': Resident tries to tell entitled tourist she's about to get a ticket

"I know the law better than you," insisted the American tourist who was visiting another country. 

Researching a country before you visit is always a good idea. In order to pack the right clothes for the weather, you certainly will need to do some planning. Not to mention if you're going to drive there, it's critical to know about local laws. After all, you can't just go to a country and decide your way is correct, and their way is wrong.

Actually, this Karen thinks that's exactly how you vacation abroad! She was confronted by a local who tried to give her some really important information about her car lights. The entitled traveller not only didn't listen to the local, but then proceeded to insult her!

'That’s what he gets for cutting you off': Guy recognizes reckless driver in his store, gets revenge by throwing him out

When someone cuts you off on the road, you never imagine you'll get to run into them again. But that's exactly what happened to this guy. He shared his story via this thread on Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit, and let's just say that we definitely got a vicarious thrill from what transpired.

 

The Redditor works at an axe-throwing venue and on his way to work one day, this other driver flies out of nowhere and the two nearly hit each other. Of course, the other driver accused the Redditor of being at fault when clearly it was the other way around. Cut to a half hour later, the Redditor arrives at work and who does he happen to see? That same reckless driver! Technically, workers are supposed to dismiss any customers who seem dangerous given that this is an axe-throwing place. So the Redditor was able to throw this guy out and ensure that he never comes back again.

'Company ended remote work today': Worker laments the loss of remote working despite record productivity at their company

It's always surprising when decisions directly contradict an organization's stated values and fly in the face of their own data and analytics. Yet, many companies' responses to remote working are exactly that, choosing to return to offices despite increased productivity and record profits. It leads one to wonder… why?

The real answer we'll never know, but it is probably close to what is often theorized in these discussions: Somewhere a manager—who still hasn't adapted to their perceived loss of control—is trying to justify their existence. 

This worker took to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit to share their story and lament the loss of what had been a positive remote working experience. Despite consistently reporting the success and strengths of having a remote workforce, the executives suddenly required all workers to return to the office. The issue is that over the years, workers grew accustomed to remote work, changing their lifestyles and resourcing to be better suited for working from home. Now, with the impending return to office work looming over them, some workers don't know what they're going to do.

Commenters responded to the post, growing the thread into a varied discussion on remote work and the original poster's situation at hand. Some commenters called the move a "stealth layoff" or "quiet layoff"—a nod to last year's trend of "quiet quitting." Others encouraged the original poster to find new work, while others still shared stories of their own.
