Oh hell no

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

When I was a bartender, customers would often rack up huge tabs over several hours, ordering martinis at the busiest moments and shots for everyone at the bar minutes before closing. The most ostentatious customers were usually the ones who would ditch the bar without closing their tabs, and 90% of the time, those cards would decline. It's a risky scam, but people who work in the service industry know better than most that customers can be shockingly audacious. As much as we wish we could expos…

Everyone forgets their wallet once in a while, and it's nothing to hold a grudge over. But when someone forgets their wallet every time they go out to dinner with friends or relatives, that person obviously doesn't want to pay the bill (ever). One redditor got sick of her serial wallet-forgetter sister-in-law 's antics, so the next time OP's SIL invited her to a fancy restaurant, OP made sure to bring her SIL's ‘forgotten’ wallet to the restaurant for her.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but Covid is not over. Sure, we may have adapted as a species, but people are still getting sick, and they're still contagious. One redditor's boss threatened their employee with termination after they called in sick with Covid, claiming that they don't have any “time off or sick time” and would be fired after seven days of absence “as per company policy.” Even if OP was sick with the common flu, this boss would still be forcing their employees to work in a…

It's not foolproof

Lately, workers have been taking to social media to expose certain e-commerce behemoths for providing horribly dangerous working conditions. Some of the more disturbing posts include pictures of room temperature thermometers giving readings in the hundreds. You'd think that other companies would take this current moment as a cue to do better, but unfortunately this doesn't seem to be the case. One redditor recently made a post in r/antiwork complaining that their boss wouldn't let anyone touch…

If you get promoted without a wage increase, is it really a promotion? Or is it just extra work ? Sure, the promotion might come with a better title, but a cool job title doesn't exactly pay tomorrow's bills. When redditor u/InterestedObserver20 was told by their employer that their new promotion didn't come with a pay raise due to budget issues, OP figured out how to use the company's own rules to get a 50% pay bump anyway.

Disney couples are a very specific sort of cringe . My own aunt and uncle had their honeymoon at Disney World (and collect Disney watches) but that's nothing compared to the cringe of people who opt to get married at the park itself. I knew one such couple, and all of their savings would go to a yearly visit, which to me is inconceivable. Even that couple cannot hold a candle to another that got absolutely roasted on both Twitter and Reddit this past weekend.

Tbh both sides have very convincing arguments...

There are a million ways someone can accidentally mess up their kid , and no one in their right mind is under the impression that parenting is easy in any way, but some things are just common sense. Making sure your kid has a healthy diet and is knowledgable about nutrition is good. Being a weird dictator about food and prohibiting your kid from enjoying a slice of cake on a special occasion? Not so good. When one redditor asked r/AmItheAsshole whether she was in the wrong for demanding “conseq…

The Queen is dead. Or, “queen dead” as we like to say around here. Either way, she has passed, and it's literally all anyone can talk about. It feels like no website (including our) is safe from the occasion's clutches. On Instagram and Reddit, we've got memes. On Facebook, aunties across the pond are loudly mourning a woman they liken to their grandmother. Don't even get us started on Twitter. If you'd like to take a break from news about the royal family,

Food for thought

Worst boss ever.

The United States is a country that really likes to do things it's own way. I remember in elementary school we had a unit on measuring temperature, and my teacher showed us a map of countries that use Celsius vs countries that use Fahrenheit. The only countries that used Fahrenheit were the USA and Liberia. The US was like, “I'm going to commit to this measurement, even if my sole ally is a country with a population less than half the size of Ohio.” That's what I call standing your ground. It's…
