A story about a Boss Accidentally CCing his Employee on Email Discussing Her Imminent Termination

Boss Accidentally CCs Employee on Email Regarding Her Imminent Termination

Everyone gets some sick satisfaction from overhearing someone talking smack about you, especially someone you've been suspicious about from the jump. When someone talks about you behind their back, they have all the power. However, when you overhear the sh*t talking, you get some of the power back and are at least able to defend yourself against their claims about you. This Uno Reverse Card puts the sh*t-talker in an awkward position because you were never really supposed to know what they felt…

A compilation of tweets where employees shared the weirdest things customers had ever asked them

People Share the Most Outlandish Questions Customers Have Asked Them

One of the worst customer interactions I've ever had was when I worked at a Chinese food place. A guy placing his order told me that his pregnant wife was allergic to sesame, and if she had any of it, she'd break out in hives. He also mentioned that this was her favorite restaurant. I noted the allergy on his order, but he kept calling the store, reminding us that there was to be no sesame in the meals. I reassured him that I had told the kitchen there was a sesame allergy for this order, and t…

Business Owners Throw Out Chairs to Prevent Employees From Sitting Down

I'm the first to admit I have a cushy office job . I sit practically all day from 10-6, and by definition, I'm probably leading a sedentary lifestyle. I'm lucky to live in New York City, so I get a good amount of walking in every day, but I am not the pillar of active living by any means. If you work a job where you have to be on your feet for hours on end, you probably wish you were in my shoes. Sitting all day might be harmful to your health long-term, but running around all day doing silly l…

Story about a rude manager who rudely pressures employee to eat lunch with their coworkers

Unreasonable Manager Pressures Employee To Eat Lunch With Their Coworkers

Remember the days when finding the right place to eat lunch in the cafeteria was the most high-stake decision you could make? When you're in school, it really is critical to find a group and stick with them during your 45 minutes of freedom. If you don't have a group you can tolerate eating with every day, you might end up eating lunch in the stairwell, which I definitely did not do during my sophomore year of high school. Luckily, eating lunch alone is a lot less of a big deal when you're an a…

Workers Discuss Email Etiquette After Company Rejects Half of Employee's Vacation Time Request

It is hard to believe how many people can't craft a proper email . I didn't wholly learn the art and science of professional emailing until I was a junior in college, and who knows where I would be if I didn't take particular classes that taught me that. I'll give you some general tips if you're an amateur emailer. Don't be overly wordy. You won't sound cold if you cut right to the chase, trust me. Don't thank someone in advance for something they haven't agreed to do. Use a simple sign-off at…

Boss Accuses Employee of 'Quiet Quitting' Because He Works a Mere 40 Hours a Week

“Quiet quitting” is one of those phrases that's wiggled into our vernacular seemingly overnight. Initially, quiet quitting was when employees would slack off at their jobs, essentially waiting to get fired. S

Frustrating Thread Reveals That Boomers Are Still Disgracefully Out of Touch

We're sad to report that the boomers still don't understand that things have changed in the past fifty years. It's as if nothing has happened outside of their lived experiences. “I made $10 an hour in 1970 and bought my own house by the time I was 30! If I did it, so can you.” You can try and explain to grandpa the concept of housing price inflation, or that $10 in 1970 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $77 today (which would be an annual salary of $148,379), but there's a strong chanc…

Story about a worker who gets fired for saying no to boss when asked to come in for a shift he wasn't scheduled for

Employee Terminated For Refusing to Work When He Wasn't Scheduled

One of the best parts about being a salaried employee is that you don't get called in for random shifts on the weekend. At least I don't, but y'all stay safe out there. There's nothing worse than preparing for a nice long day of doing nothing than receiving a call from your manager. When I worked at a dog bakery, I was always the person saying “yes” to picking up this one girls shifts. If it sounds like I was being a pushover, it's because I was a pushover. For me, it was hard to leave money on…

Restaurant Management Threatens To Write Up Waitstaff That Aren't Mentioned in 5-Star Reviews

Businesses fundamentally misunderstand how the average person approaches reviewing something. Unless you are a “Local Guide” on Google Reviews, you are not going to leave a review for a service unless it's a 1-star or a 5-star experience.
