'We are professionals and that is what's expected of us': Awful Boss Demands Employees Work 60+ Hours Per Week

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…

Underpaid Worker Berated by Boss for Salvaging Perfectly Good Food From Dumpster

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…

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…

Genius HR Karen Calls Coworker 'Dumb Blonde' in Front of Her Boss

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…

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.
