Emergency contacts exist for a reason. If your employee is having a medical emergency at work, you need to tell their family or close friends if they had to go to the hospital. While this system is useful in the contexts it's supposed to be used, it is extremely easy to abuse for absurd reasons. One man recently went viral on Reddit after his boss repeatedly texted his wife. This might sound suspicious on his wife's part, but they weren't texting for the reason you think they're texting. The em…

You make the bed you lie in

If you're like most people, you've probably spent at least some time slaving away in the greasy, soul-sucking world of fast food. You know the drill: long hours, low pay, and the constant stench of deep-fried despair. Sure, the fast food industry might not be the most glamorous line of work , but it's a rite of passage for many of us. The ultimate character builder. Whether you’re in the trenches of a Taco Bell make-line or the front-of-house target for unhinged middle-aged women, it’s one of t…

We've all been asked about our hobbies in a job interview at one point or another. That is one of those moments in a job interview to show off how well-rounded, unique, and relaxed you are. It's normal to stretch the truth to sound more impressive than you are. If I were to give you one good tip for the hobby question, it would be to include at least one athletic hobby. For some reason, that type of hobby makes you look like you've got your stuff together. It doesn't matter if it's an adult dod…

You can only work so many hours every week before you crack. While some think 40 hours a week is a back-breaking amount of working hours, others must tolerate 50-60 hours of weekly work to stay afloat financially. In my opinion, that's when you start getting a bit loopy. If you're working nearly every day without any breaks, you put yourself at risk for long-term health issues and general distress. If you have no time for loved ones or hobbies, then what is the hard work really for? Some people…

I guess we'll never know!

Yeah right

Mr. Krabs in the flesh!

His salaried employees are only making $30,000

“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

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…

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.

What a joke

Why can't he...nevermind

So selfish

So irresponsible
