'CEO tried to bully me. I knew my rights.'

Spoiler alert: He learned nothing

Boss doesn't like the consequences of his own actions, takes it out on employees

The little things are what make a tough workplace at least somewhat bearable. Whether that's talking to your coworkers, getting a nice lunch, or maybe just having a short break every one-in-awhile, the little things most certainly count. At this construction company, it was the communal speaker. According to the employee, who works in a computer position in the company, the construction firm employs a lot of Latino men for much of the physical portions of projects. While the work is difficult,…

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…

We love to see it

For the 1%

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!

When I was a teenager, a certain upscale grocery store chain in my hometown got exposed for dumping bleach into their dumpsters (usually full of perfectly good food) to prevent people from dumpster diving. When I found out about this, I was dumbfounded. Did they really think the sort of people who could afford to shop at their bougie grocery stores would immediately stop shopping and start rummaging through their dumpsters the moment they found out they throw away perfectly good food? No, obvio…

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes

Yeah right

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…

Mr. Krabs in the flesh!

Always good to put your plans to commit wage theft in writing.

I have never been discriminated against on the ground of being blonde. A blessed bottle of bleach touched my scalp for the first time when I was twenty, and I've been addicted ever since. Being blonde has gotten me nothing but compliments and a couple of wild assumptions that it's natural, which is absurd considering the brown caterpillars that are my eyebrows. "Dumb blonde" is one of those playground insults. It can be exceedingly hurtful to kids who are called that, but kids usually grow out…
