Job woes

Oops

We've all worked jobs we had a particular distaste for, a place we dreaded stepping foot in, a manager's call we were apprehensive about getting. OP was working at a pizza place at the ripe old age of 18, earning $8.50 an hour, dealing with customers who were an absolute nightmare, and answering to a boss who should never have gotten a management role, to begin with. One night, a homeless man named Ricky entered the pizza store when OP was on shift, asking OP if there were any leftover pizzas t…

Happy Sunday, programming wizards! We're back this weekend, once again, to provide you with the best and brightest programming memes . Perfect timing, right? How much has ChatGPT affected your life as a programmer? Has it alleviated the stress of programming all on your own? Has it been a hindrance because it's not exactly optimal?

That's exactly what one redditor did at their McDonald's job, and the customers loved them for it. Sounds like a win-win for both employee and patron, right? Well, that's not how management saw it. Instead of praising their employee for being such a big hit with customers, the boss demanded that the employee follow the official corporate script to a…

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…
