'A complete garbage person': Boss fires worker for stupid reason, worker ruins their marriage by revealing their affair with a coworker


An employee got ruthless revenge on their terrible boss when they ran into him in a bar, quickly bringing a certain end to the boss's marriage after revealing a long-standing affair that the boss had been having with a coworker.

Redditor and dejected employee u/NALORpod, posted this story to the r/pettyrevenge subreddit. The account details a series of events at his old workplace under his terrible boss.

u/NALORpod worked as a meatpacker… while his boss was busy packing his meat with the receptionist. u/NALORpod explains that he would often come into work for the afternoon shift and find that the receptionist, who was supposed to be running clock-ins, was in "locked door" meetings with the boss. He would take over the clock-in desk while she was absent before starting his work, sometimes getting foul looks from the boss when the pair finally left the office. u/NALORpod explains his philosophy on the situation as "Not my husband or wife. Not my problem."

We continue this dance of me covering her station and getting in trouble for it for a few weeks until an ice storm hit. u/NALORpod got fired for stupid reasons, leaving the desire for revenge burning.

‘Home improvement store or a dog park?’: Customer asks employees how they feel about dogs overtaking home improvement stores


It's become quite trendy in the United States to take your beloved pooches everywhere, to the annoyance of this customer who wanted to shop without dogs around. It does seem that people can take their dogs almost anywhere these days — into stores, cafes, restaurants, and so on. However, this customer is sick of seeing dogs at a place where they've historically been allowed to hang out – at home improvement stores. 

U/drcrankenstein took to the r/HomeDepot subreddit, usually reserved for posts from employees, to ask the workers what their thoughts were. While he got downvoted something fierce on some answers, employees seemed surprisingly mixed about their feelings toward our furry friends. 

Some absolutely love getting to pet dogs, as it improves their day. However, for others, they don't care for the messes and fights that dog owners bring to their stores. Not to mention people who have allergies or are afraid of dogs, there's just no escaping pets at these stores! The OP certainly has much to think about before their next trip to the home improvement store.

'He was... gaming the system': Sneaky guest acts like a 'major jerk' until quick-thinking hotel employee gets pro revenge on him


This long-time hotel clerk was familiar with his employer's rules — and he got the chance to use them against one customer who was entitled and rude. 

As u/Ancient_Ice shared to r/ProRevenge, he worked at a hotel franchise for some time. One day, he happened to come in for his shift and saw his coworkers were upset over the way a guest treated them. Surely guests can be demanding and harsh, but apparently this guest went above and beyond by screaming at the young employees. Since he'd been working there for some time, the OP managed to get a little bit of information on this rude guest, and used the hotel's rules to his own advantage. Turns out this guest actually worked at another hotel, and wasn't even following the rules set by his own employer.

'The sheer audacity': Company rejects interview candidate, then reaches out for unpaid help months later


There are so many red flags in this story that we lost count. Let's start with the fact that it's one thing for a company to reach out to a former employee for help or advice. However, it's another to reach out to someone they never hired - in fact, someone they fully rejected. And for unpaid advice nonetheless! The 'sheer audacity' is right!

 

This thread, which was posted to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit by u/Lumberjvvck, serves as yet another example of how many employers these days have no shame when it comes to ethics and boundaries. We haven't even addressed the fact that the Redditor is pretty certain that the person who reached out was the person who received the job offer. How did HR just blindly give away the Redditor's contact information? As we said earlier, there are too many red flags going on here. What's even more upsetting is that if you scroll through the comments below, it's remarkable how unremarkable this phenomenon is. Virtually everyone who commented had been through a similar experience. This company should learn to develop some class.

'Find those muffins!!': Karen customer demands nonexistent muffins, manager demands their procurement


Customers are easily the worst part of any customer service job, followed closely by arrogant unqualified managers. The two make a dynamic duo when you're unfortunate enough to endure them simultaneously. The Karen, an unstoppable force of rage and fury, and the manager, an unmovable brick wall of utter density. Like Batman and the Joker, they are eternally locked in an endless struggle—and you're stuck in the middle. (It's no wonder that, in these industries, you spend most of your time off just trying to recover from adrenal fatigue.)

Yes, customers are entitled and demanding, sometimes making demands for things that don't even actually exist. When this happens, your manager will probably get involved and tell them to jog on in the nicest way possible…. Unless your manager is Steve. See, Steve heard the phrase "The customer is always right." and decided to treat it as gospel. Whatever the customer wanted, Steve was going to give them, insisting that these mystery muffins be found. This set up a brilliant opportunity for malicious compliance. 

Keep reading for this story, as it was originally shared on Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance. For more, check out these workers who quit after their manager tried to write them up.

Snooping Karen makes teen cry after she alleges credit card 'fraud'


This woman decided to visit an expensive department store and spy on the other customers while they shopped. If only she had decided to mind her business, the internet wouldn't be roasting her

After a shopping incident, Karen felt justified to post to r/AmItheA**hole – she was so sure she was in the right, but she just wanted to be sure. As she explains the story, she went for a shopping trip in Bloomingdales, and noticed two teen girls who found a pair of super expensive boots, and decided to buy them. As Karen listened into their conversation, she decided that there was potential fraud afoot! These girls were planning on using a credit card belonging to one of the girls' father. Karen swooped in to stop these teenagers, without realizing that she was the a**hole in this situation.

35+ Top Relatable Pie Chart Fails Depicting Our Worst Habits


This one goes out to all the visual learners out there. We all know that sometimes, the only way to properly conceptualize something is with a visual aid. We've learned this from our school days. And yet, even as adults, there is something about a pie chart that makes our biggest daily fails all the more relatable and universal. At the same time, they can make our biggest daily fails all the more confronting. Talk about a double-edged sword!

 

Some of these charts address our greatest insecurities, our awkward social interactions, our dating lives (or lack thereof), our uncontrollable eating habits, our relationship with work, and even our relationship with ourselves. Who knew that a pie chart could convey so much with so little? Keep scrolling below to have a look at these pie chart fails.

'If I was the CEO I would decrease your wages': Demotivational Karen spills the results of employees' anonymous surveys


This department head is unbelievably out of touch with her employees. It seems like the more money people make in their jobs, the more they forget how hard it is to live on a low salary. This Head of Department Karen really hit a nerve with the employees working under her guidance. As she gave an employee update, she managed to say some truly baffling things to the call center team. 

U/peacesalaamz took to the r/talesfromcallcenters subreddit to share this story of their Head of Department, who decided to give her employees some "updates in what the company has improve[d] on for customers and employees." To Karen's surprise, an anonymous survey of the call center workers found that most of them were less than thrilled about their current salary. Instead of offering a raise or addressing the employees' concerns, this department head chose a different strategy. Read all about these wild Karen antics below. Then, check out these horrible roommates whose habits make them impossible to live with. 

Relatable Work Memes for Employees With a Permanent Case of the Mondays (February 28, 2023)


Going to work is undoubtedly the lamest necessary evil in our lives. Not only are you wasting 8 precious hours each day, but you're lining the pockets of some nepo-baby CEO who's only ever worked on his yacht racing 'career' and assembling his Burning Man looks. While your boss may have never worked a day in their life, you're all too familiar with the creaking sounds of the freeway when it's commuter traffic time, that feeling when you skip breakfast because you're running late to the office, and the solemn (yet hopeful) promise of getting your direct deposit notification every two weeks. Hang in there, buddy– the corporate cogs will always turn, it's best you don't get caught between them by sticking your neck out.

'I am quitting [...] effective immediately': Worker quits without notice after watching their coworkers being fired without notice.


Treat others how you would like to be treated: the golden rule. Regardless of your religious beliefs or affiliations, it stands to reason that this is a good principle to follow in order to build a moral foundation for one's actions. This "golden rule" or sometimes "ethic of reciprocity" appears universally throughout civilizations and cultures, dating back as far as 2000 BCE in Ancient Egypt. 

Despite its ubiquity in philosophy and religion, small business owners somehow seemed to have missed the memo, often expecting considerations from their workers that they themselves would never give to anyone. This brings us to a common problem regarding the 'trust fall' that is notice periods (and the act of giving notice in general) in the United States. With most of the US being employment at will, your employer could send you packing 20 seconds from now for whatever reason they desired, such as manifesting the failure of their business. So, when you go to give them your two-week notice, you might expect them to do the same in return, but they could take that notice and terminate your employment on the spot.

With this in mind, when an employer has proven that, when push comes to shove, they themself won't follow a notice period, you shouldn't either when leaving that business. (However, if an employer has shown you nothing but respect, it would be wise to treat them with the same.)

After watching two of their coworkers be let go without notice or warning, this worker knew that they were going to be saddled with the whole team's work and quickly made plans to make moves and get out of the toxic bakery where they worked. 

You might say, after all is bread and done, that the employer has found themselves in a shit show of their own baking. They'll knead to get on their hiring game to save themselves from disaster. 

 

 

 

'My roommate told me my Social Security number': 20+ Utterly unhinged roommate stories


Living in close quarters with someone forces you to be up close and personal with their messy rooms and weird habits. Lots of people have bad roommate stories — some can only be shared anonymously!

Toxic entitled individual battles a Karen on the bus


It's a race to the bottom in this latest story of petty revenge… 

We're all the heroes of our own story, and the mind has an impressive way of spinning a narrative so that it isn't at fault—especially when that narrative is going to be posted online for fake internet points. But, hey, it's my job to farm other people's fake-internet-point stories and give my own snazzy take on it for more fake internet points—so I shouldn't be one to judge. 

Because we're so good at making ourselves out to be the "good guy" in a story, it's very telling when someone's own narrative paints them to be the villain or shows cracks in the armor that we can't ignore. If you can't even manage to make yourself sound good, we have to wonder what sort of behavior and warped perspective lies beneath the charade.  

This user shared a story to Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit, which aims to tell the classic story of a "Karen on the bus," and, while the "Karen" she's talking about sounds terrible… the user sounds equally terrible. 

Studies have confirmed that hearing one side of a phone conversation is profoundly more irritating than listening to other people talking, so subjecting the poor people who are stuck on a long-haul bus trip with you is incredibly inconsiderate. The user then goes on to talk about how she is planning to assault the "Karen" with glitter for voicing her annoyance at the phone call, disregarding the fact that someone will have to clean it up and others are likely to be contaminated, confirming the user's warped perspective on the world and propensity toward entitled behavior. 

Just another reason why public transport is a battered hellscape of an experience. 

'You're not friends. You are her boss': Clueless manager forces employee to give her the last bite of her chocolates


This manager went into work on her day off just to bully her so-called  "friend/employee." In this insane story told to r/AmItheA**hole, the OP described an interesting work situation she's got going on. The 34 year old manager went into her retail job on her day off, probably because she considers her employees to be her friends. Not that bosses and employees can't be friends in theory, but there's got to be some boundaries drawn, and this clueless boss has some major issues with that. 

The employee, Kate, was showing her coworkers a nice box of chocolates from her boyfriend. There was only one piece left when the OP showed up, and she actually had the nerve to ask — twice! — for a bite of the final truffle. This employee was so taken aback that she tried to deflect the OP's question in a few different ways, but the OP wasn't taking no for an answer. The OP even managed to insult her in front of all the other employees. This boss and employee relationship doesn't sound much like a friendship… After getting flamed in the comments section and repeatedly getting called an a**hole by basically everyone, maybe the OP will rethink her "friendships."

25+ Gym and Exercise Memes and Fails for Those of You Who Are Still Sore From Leg Day


For some of us, going to the gym is an obsession; for others, it's a fantasy. While some of us are sticking to a strict regimen of cardio and weightlifting and stretching, others consider a walk around the block or even a walk around the room to be sufficient exercise. I mean, it's all relative, isn't it? But let's say for the sake of this ~exercise~ (so to speak), no matter where you fall on this spectrum, you are now at the gym. You've made it. It may be your third time there this week or it may be your time there in your lifetime. Regardless, you've made it and you're now tasked with working out among all these trainers and gym rats and hot people. You might be thinking: how the heck am I going to get through this? Well, if these memes and fails serve as any indication, we have all been in your position. Keep scrolling below to check these out.

'He couldn't find any trains going to Hawai'i': 40 People share the moment they realized someone was dumb as a rock


There's billions of people in this world, and they can't all be geniuses. Some don't even have a drop of common sense. You're going to meet many people from all different walks of life and varying educational backgrounds, but sometimes people just say stunning things. Prompted by a famous quote from George Carlin, people shared their stories of the times they realized they were much smarter than the person they were chatting with. 

These people aren't your average run-of-the-mill dum dums. No, this is advanced stupidity, the kind that makes you worry for their safety. Some people just aren't taught simple life lessons, like one guy who was infuriated that he had to wear his glasses to the DMV, or another who called emergency services because there was no mayo on their sandwich. 

After you check out these face-palm worthy fails, see why this woman really wants to start calling her noisy neighbor a "Karen."

‘Malicious Compliance Mode Activated’ : Employee Fired for Messing With Wrong Coworker After Getting Berated for Not Following Company Safety Guidelines


Do warning signs baffle you? Specifically, the type that read 'Do not stand in, on or around while operating'? It seems like kind of a given. Well, you haven't met my coworkers. Company safety matters should be taken seriously — guidelines are in place for a reason. That reason is usually that it is potentially saving employees from ending up as a pile of mush, buried 6 feet under. If someone had to make a sign, there is usually a reason.

Well, apparently my coworkers are not the only ones in need of a visual reminder. See, there was one certain employee who did not take the advice 'Never EVER under any circumstances climb into a compactor unless it's unhooked from any power sources' — and climbed in anyway. Don't worry, nothing terrible happened. I mean, he got fired, but he is not a pile of mush. That's a win in my book. 

How did he get found out, anyway? Well, another worker got involved when he saw the stupidity for himself, and instead of thanking the dude, the employee went all 'MIND YOUR MANNERS', which led to malicious compliance, which led to… well, have a look for yourself. Scroll down and check out the malicious compliance/petty revenge. For more, you're free to have a rare look at HR standing up for an employee who was (shocker) in the right for not giving out freebies to an entitled Karen of a customer.

'I can smell it on you': Karen coworker falsely accuses employee of vaping in the bathroom, tries to get him fired


When your Karen coworker has it out for you, you have to watch your back. That's certainly what this employee learned after the bully he works with falsely accused him of vaping in the bathroom, when in reality, he was taking a longer time than usual due to a bodily health issue. This Reddit thread was posted by u/eli_still_exists, who works at a center for children with developmental disabilities where there is a strict 'no smoking' policy.

 

The story, unfortunately, gets worse from here on out. Karen reported the Redditor to their supervisor, who went ahead and fully searched him (only to find nothing, of course). Still, however, the supervisor gave the Redditor a warning. We agree with the folks in the comments section who suggested that the employee file a complaint against Karen. A coworker should not be monitoring one's time in the restroom like that. It's just creepy. Keep scrolling below for the full story.

Toxic GF steals dude's beloved car and hauls it to junk yard


This guy was stunned to find out that his girlfriend had not only stolen his beloved car, but she took it to be scrapped. U/Jimothyisyouruncle shared this story to r/AmItheA**hole, and it's a truly wild tale. 

The OP let his GF live with him during for a few months, but she's hated his car since day one. The 1967 Impala really grinds her gears, all because it's parked in the spot she wants to put her own car in. The OP told her, "Tough luck," since there were other places to park it. But then, he left town on a business trip for several days, and the car had suddenly disappeared! 

While the OP's GF was acting nice towards him at first, it was only to soften the blow when she told him that she'd hired people to get rid of this car that he loves so much. The OP wrote an original post plus an update, as well as answering questions in the comments. 

Next, this guy got to tell his former boss to kick rocks, all for a very satisfying reason.

'Sorry, I've got a new job now': Boss insists employee delete all backup files in order to save money, has major regrets


What this boss says goes, so this employee just did exactly as his manager asked him. Some bosses just always have to be right, no matter what their employees say. U/oldman712 shared this excellent tale of malicious compliance, and commenters then shared their own tales below. As the OP wrote, he was a software prototype designer who usually worked with individual clients. He'd save their projects on various terabytes, which the actually bought with his own money! 

While the OP cared about his clients, new management entered the picture, and they began cutting costs. Due to age discrimination, the OP was forced out of his job, and even had to train his replacement. But by following his company's rules to the letter, he ended up having the last laugh. 

Next up, this introvert just got a new coworker who's friendly and talkative — and they have the exact same commute every single day. 

'I don't want a travel buddy': Introvert trapped in super awkward commute with talkative new coworker


The commute to work is supposed to be a sacred space of personal time, but this woman's cheerful coworker is ruining it for her. As u/PersonalYesterday865 wrote to the British Problems subreddit, she's struggling with her people-pleasing ways. She's not quite sure what to do about her friendly coworker who just started working at the same job as her. The OP has learned that they take the exact same commute, and as an introvert, she's freaking out about losing her much-needed alone time. 

Luckily for the OP, people in the comments had lots of advice! Some was pretty goofy, but there were also lots of people who'd endured similar awkward scenarios. A few people suggested just being honest and straightforward about the commute issue. If she just tells her coworker that she's looking forward to reading or sleeping during the commute, maybe he'll leave her be! As a fellow introvert, I feel for this OP, and I hope she can figure out her exit strategy with all this advice.

'LOL or what? They're gonna fire you?': Neglectful Management Triples Employee's Workload During Her Last 2-Weeks After Forcing Her to Resign via Email, She Epically Refuses


Sometimes the amount of audacity upper management has is unbelievably astronomical. Like, how is that even possible? Welcome to the world of *~capitalism~*. It's not like the old days anymore, however, where people took the abuse of their managers and bosses because they needed to put food on the table for their family of 10. No. Now we are choosing uncertainty and peace over abuse and security. 

For instance, one woman on Reddit recently posted asking if she should put any extra effort into her last two weeks at a job she absolutely hated. The management had been so neglectful of her that when she begged for them to arrange a face-to-face meeting they ignored her, so she was forced to quit via email. She has been nothing but an exemplary employee, but it would appear they did not think she deserved enough respect to provide an exit meeting for her. Though she did the best she could to train her replacement, she has had it. Now, her upper bosses fill her email inbox with demands of this and that. The thing is, this is her last two weeks and she is over it. So she has zero efforts left to give. 

You better believe the internet whole-heartedly supports the decision to spot putting in any kind of effort for those toxic managers. She already gave the courtesy of a 2-weeks notice, if they are going to continue to disrespect her to the very last minute of her working there, then she should just stop working.

‘My Boss Was a Liar. I Knew I Was Gonna Quit, but First I Needed to Maliciously Comply’ : Employee Humiliates Lying Boss in Front of Coworkers After Finding Hidden Agenda Regarding Work Training


While at work, we expect a certain level of professionalism from our coworkers, including our boss. Many managers tend to have a hidden agenda of sorts, and live in la-la land, blindly assuming they won't get figured out. What was this manager's real motivation for making her employees' lives more difficult? I'm not sure. But she insisted that specific training take place out of State. 

Now, this was back in 2020, when that wasn't really possible. Moreover, there were mandatory 2-week quarantines in place for anyone going back into their State — which this boss fully planned on ignoring. So she wasn't just being totally inconsiderate towards her employees, but also to the entire world. Thanks, Karen. The employees thought it was weird that upper management would want employees to go through so much just for some 'training', but this Karen insisted that there was no remote training available.

She was very much lying, as it turns out. The employee who was really getting the worst of her behavior had decided she was gonna quit. Who would want to stay in that kind of toxic environment? She had a newborn to think about as well, so it was a pretty clear 'Nope, I'm out' for her. But before doing so, she decided to dig a bit… finding out quickly that it was all a fabrication, she did what she had to do.

Update! 'She gave the judge an attitude': Woman demands extra money for a brand new MacBook after friend sits on her old computer


One person wondered if they were at fault for the full cost of a new MacBook after breaking their friend's computer. They took to r/legaladvice years ago to explain the situation — and now they're back with an update to their laptop woes! 

Originally, u/MacBookcouch wrote that while they were over at a friend's place, they took a seat on the couch. Unfortunately there was a MacBook on the cushion, and the OP broke the screen! "Since it was completely my fault, I offered to pay her the money," the OP wrote. But this woman got greedy. She wouldn't accept the OP's money when the time came because she wanted a new computer, complete with the cost increase of hundreds of dollars. She thinks if she's getting a new computer, it should be an upgrade at the OP's expense. Without other options, the OP turned to the internet for advice, and shared what happened as their legal drama played out.

'My gut told me to turn into Harriet the Spy...': Wife Suspects Husband's Cheating on Her With Mutual Friend, Pretends to Be Him on Social Media and Gets the Other Woman to Spill the Tea


If you have ever been put in the horrible position where you suspect that your "loving" partner is cheating in you, then you know there is no other gut-wrenching feeling like it. Maybe you see their phone lighting up with messages late at night. Or you get a friend saying they say your partner out with someone else at a random time of the day that you didn't know about. Or you simply see someone liking too many of their social media posts. That feeling of your heart dropping into your stomach is instant. It makes you want to curl up into a ball and hide away. But that is not what you do! 

One strong wife epically shares on Reddit how she discovered and left her unfaithful husband. He had already pulled some shady things on suspicious apps that had them on the rocks, but he agreed to delete them and attend therapy. The couple have been together over 7 years and had a 1-year-old baby boy. So the wife was hoping everything would work out. Then one day she saw on their security camera a woman trying to come to their house while she was out of town and her husband was at home. He said it was just a traveling sales person, but she could see through his BS. 

So she decided to go into FBI-mode and do some investigating herself. She went onto Instagram and deciphered whatever his login was, after several tries, she got in! With that, she started talking to their mutual friend she suspected he was cheating on her with. And with that, the other woman spilled all the tea and she knew. 

She immediately called her friends over to pack up all of his belongings and kicked him out. Though he cried and apologized to her, she said she had too much respect for herself and her child, so they were done. EPIC!

'No point asking you anything else': Rude hiring manager makes interviewee cry after second interview


This person is scared to interview again after this terrible experience with an insensitive hiring manager. This unfortunate job seeker took to r/recruitingh*ll to share their awful experience and vent about their frustrations with the interview process. 

As u/ThatFaithlessness101 wrote, they had a second interview with a company. It was entry level, and they also stated in the job requirements that you didn't have to be familiar with anything related to the job before joining the company. So that's why it was all the more baffling when the OP was asked a question they didn't know the answer to. Instead of asking another question to determine if the OP was right for the job, the manager dismissed them pretty rudely. 

As one person mentioned in the comments, this manager might have already interviewed a dozen people that day, and was possibly already sure they weren't going to hire the OP. That sucks for the OP, but it's still no excuse for rudeness on the manager's part.

Karen blocks Single Mother's driveway, Single Mother calls the cops, Karen demands an apology


Wherever there are parking spaces or driveways… there are bound to be neighbors feuding over them. It's just one of those territorial behaviors that have been ingrained in us since the monkey times… Monkey get big cube of metal. Monkey need place to keep big cube of metal. Other monkey move their cube of metal. Monkey take other monkey's metal cube keeping place. Other monkey mad.

This story plays out time and time again, with an irrational neighbor insisting on parking in another (slightly less irrational) neighbor's space. This hatred will simmer like a soup in summer until it finally boils over into a meltdown of rage. 

That's what happened when this "nosey and judgemental" neighbor made a point of blocking this single mother's driveway after stealing her children's ball. After the neighbor claimed that she "had a right to park wherever she wanted" things escalated, and the police got involved. The neighbor is now demanding an apology and the mother is wondering if she is in the wrong for calling the police. 

What's your call?
 

'Your SIL is an entitled parent': Party host gets yelled at by her SIL over food choices


Planning and hosting a kid's birthday party is stressful enough, but this woman's entitled sister-in-law made it so much worse. This OP shared her story with the internet, since she was seeking helpful opinions on whether or not she was the jerk in this situation. 

As the OP, u/haley××2 wrote, she was planning a birthday party for her kiddo, age 8, and inviting a bunch of people over. The OP invited her sister in law and niece, age 6, to the party as well. Since her niece has several allergies, plus can't have gluten or dairy, she catered a meal specially for her. But that didn't stop the little girl from throwing a tantrum when she couldn't have the food that everyone else was eating at the party, and that's when the real drama began. 

Her SIL was furious that the OP didn't make literally every food to fit with her kid's dietary needs. But, of course, "My daughter doesn't have allergies. This party was for her," the OP wrote. 

Next, this teen wanted people to weigh in on whether or not he was a mansplainer… and people in the comments agreed that he wasn't!
