'That's a cross walk, not a parking spot': 20+ Breathtakingly bad parking jobs


If you drive, you already know how many people with licenses really shouldn't have received theirs. After all, lots of folks take drivers ed as a teenager, learn the rules well enough to pass their test, and then just keep driving for the rest of their lives without getting much better at it. 

Check out these hilariously parked people below (plus a few clever signs designed just to tell them off). Then, read this story about a waitress whose outfit choice was questioned by the diners she was serving

'There's a camera in my office': Employee discovers boss is watching their every move, internet reacts


If this isn't a red flag, I don't know what is. Perhaps the worst thing an employer can do is to make their employee feel like their every move is being monitored. In this case, that's not just a feeling; that's exactly what's happening here. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/TrueOffMyChest subreddit by u/Casimyrx, who discovered a camera pointed directly at her desk on her first day on the job.

 

Some folks in the comments left incredible advice for this 22-year-old, who is relatively new to the working world. On a serious note, she should start looking elsewhere for a job immediately. On a more light-hearted one, she has several options to get back at her boss: she could put a photo of her working directly in front of the camera, she could put a decoration (perhaps a potted plant) in front of it, etc.

‘My boss messed up’: Driver finds out he's getting fired via group chat boss forgot he's a part of


Every workplace has some kind of group chat, and you'd assume managers would check the members before spreading information about someone getting fired beforehand, but alas, in this case, they did not. OP found out that he was going to be fired in 3 weeks after his boss forgot that he was actually included in the group chat. OP was working as a driver for the company and had been accused of breaking something that according to him, was already breaking since he had started working.

The reason that his boss was going to wait for 3 weeks was because they were overworked and behind schedule. OP found himself at a loss for what to do, as he had a lot of debt and needed this job. Moreover, he hadn't even done what he was accused of. He wondered if he should just quit. Redditors were quick to chip in with some sound advice on r/antiwork. Scroll down to read what they had to say.

'They were awoken by a metallic BANG!!!!': Engineering students make bomb-proof mailbox to stop destructive joyriders in their tracks


A stoppable force meets an immovable object—the makings of any classic story—like Batman, only not quite

Well,  in this case, you end up with a broken baseball bat and a couple of angry idiots who have met their match with an indestructible hunk of metal. Redditor u/AQuietBorderline posted this story to  r/ProRevenge about a group of college engineering students tasked with creating a mailbox that was virtually indestructible. 

This is exactly the kind of thing that needs to happen when a couple of idiots are going around causing wanton destruction. Some men might just want to watch the world burn, but we can put them in their place with things like ultra-reinforced mailboxes. The best part is the additional stories in the comments... It's wild how many people have had to resort to something like this to prevent the destruction of their mailboxes.
