Finance Officer Cuts Budget, Employees Donate It All to Food Bank


Chad decided to make all the employees situation inconvenient in order to try and save some money, but he ended up costing more money for the company in the end. The employees spoke their mind through charity. For another weird budget story, here's a Karen who used up her entire budget on ugly PowerPoints.

1.

Text - Posted by u/alxwak 1 day ago * O 11 2710 34 8 Change our expenditure accounts? The food bank will have a feast! oc L This happened about 10 years ago, when I worked for a company doing community nursing. We were provided with company cars and a prepaid card for expenditure (fuel and food). The card had a limit of 400 euros per week, the card resetting to the 400 limit every Monday morning. Despite the 400 euros limit, the usual amount any of us spent each week was around 150 to 200 euros,

2.

Text - Enter Chad. He was the the financial officer and had some pretty "unique" ideas about changing the finances of the company. One of the ideas he instituted was a change to our prepaid cards. He dropped the limit to 50 euros a day, with the card resetting every day. As you can understand, this was a problem, especially if you consider that a full tank costed 55 euros minimum. If you used the card for fuel, then the rest was paid out of pocket. We couldn't be reimbursed for the money, becaus

3.

Text - Initially, most coworkers were spending 30 euros on fuel and refueled two or three times a week. But not me. While my malicious compliance tendencies were natural, during my Navy service were honed to perfection by a couple of Master Chiefs. So, enter Malicious Compliance. I decided to spent each day 20 euros for fuel (somedays less), pay for my own coffee out of pocket and spend the rest at lunch. I used to patron a grill and bbq place that had a catering side. They also volunteered for

4.

Text - I started rising at least 90 euros a week for the food bank. I hit the limit every day, costing the company 250 euros a week (from 150). Chad was furious. He was trying to save money and I was costing him more. He asked me to explain my expenses. Food and fuel. He asked for receipts. I provided them (the receipt said food, nothing else). He finally said I should eat cheaper. I told him the company couldn't force not to eat whatever I wanted. After that meeting, a couple of coworkers saw m

5.

Text - The Aftermath: This went on for two months. Chad was livid, because now he was loosing even more money. The solution came unexpectedly. Unbeknownst to all of us, the owner the company was a major contributor to the food bank. He knew about the restaurant helping out and had seen the richer buffets. He asked the owner of the restaurant about and he said a few nurses had started coming, raising the tab (at that point 600 euros minimum). The owner put two and two together.

6.

Text - I was called in for a meeting with the owner. I was anxious, because I didn't know what it was about. When I got there, Chad was there also. During the meeting, Chad explained how he was losing money, but he couldn't do anything about it. I explained what our grievance was and how we took advantage of it. Chad replied we shouldn't game the system for something SO stupid as a food bank. The owner stopped the meeting right there. He reinstated the old system for expenditure. He reprimanded

7.

Text - The final result was getting our old system back (which we didn't abuse), a weekly donation to the food bank and a major Easter Sunday BBQ for the food bank sponsored by the company. Chad lasted only another three months, because his penny saving ways dropped the quality of care we could provide. I stayed with the company until it was sold to new owners who were more like Chad. But that's a story for another subreddit.

Tinder Pickup Lines That Had Zero Shame


We can always count on Tinder for the cheesy pickup lines, the spicy wordplay, and the bold and unfiltered banter. It's a place where the world's hopeless romantics and spicy silvertongues collide to exchange pleasantries, or get in genuine verbal squabbles. Sometimes though, all the odds are defied, and people somehow end up walking away from the "successfully paired right swipe" with an actual date set up.

That's like a deployment. Thu, Sep 24 4:40AM A whole year. That's an awful long time to reply. And to think that 24 hours was debatable.

Tumblr Thread: Humans Will Pack Bond With Anything


This fun Tumblr thread escalates quickly after a few folks share their hilarious experiences with befriending some of the hard working, earnest Roombas of the world. It considers what it'd look like if there were a knife-wielding Roomba on board a human starship, and all the kinds of chaos that would inevitably ensue. For some more gold from Tumblr check out this Tumblr thread about how humans are weird, durable space orcs.

Text - voidspacer My roomba is scared of thunderstorms I was sitting at my desk just a few minutes ago, drawing, and a really loud crack of thunder went off-no power surges or anything, just thunder-and my roomba fled from its dock and started spinning in circles I currently now have an active roomba sitting quietly on my lap systlin Humans will pack bond with anything. Source: voidspacer

Text - A you-only-liberate-once my host mom in Japan referred to her Roomba as "Roomba-san" and when it would get stuck she would just look over it and softly say “ganbatte, Roomba- san.ganbatte" as it made distressed beeping noises at her whoopsrobots "Ganbatte: Cheer up, Be courageous, Do your best" Source: you-only-liberate-once 151,556 notes

Text - plsdonttakemyadvice Man human imprinting is crazy. My friend's roomba zoomed by me and I got this intense urge to reach down and pat it. Like it's just a machine? But it's a good boy? It spends all day cleaning and sleeping and exploring the house and never complains and it's just so good little robot? Pet robot?? Pet the robot????? Why am I like this??? polysymphonic When I bought my roomba the lady at the store told me that if it breaks within warranty and I send it back to the manufact

Text - sepulchritude on the topic of humans being the intergalactic “hold my beer" species: imagine an alien stepping onto a human starship and seeing a space roomba with a knife duct taped onto it, just wandering around the ship it doesn't have any special intelligence. it's just a normal space roomba. there are other space roombas on the ship and they don't have knives. it's just this one. knife space roomba has full clearance to every room in the ship. occasionally crew members will be talkin

Text - "it doesn't stab very hard, it gets us more than it gets our enemies, and no, but that sounds cool – someone write that down." "but then what is its purpose?" "I don't know," the captain says, leaning down to give the space roomba an affectionate pat. "it just seemed cool" aethersea this is the dumbest idea l've ever heard but I thought about it for five seconds and realized that if I were, say, a random communications officer onboard this ship and someone taped a knife to a roomba it wou

Text - "Yup. Don't leave your humans unsupervised." "I'l uh, take that under advisement." "Seriously. Get a supply of safe animals for the humans to bond with or they will make their own. I mean, they will try to befriend anything they come across anyway, but without any permanent pets they can get... creative. Don't even get me started on the time one of them taped a knife to one of our auto-cleaners and named it Stabby. Three weeks in and when we finally caught the wretched thing, half the hum
