Sure, Jan

It goes without saying, there is a lot of evil in this world. For the most part, companies and businesses are rewarded for bad behavior . The end goal of any operation is to make money, so with that in mind, you can imagine that a lot of the largest, most successful businesses engage in less-than-ethical behavior often. It doesn't take a genius to realize that. The only way we're going to improve the world, even marginally, is going to be by discussing the actions of the guilty. There are a lot…

It's difficult to imagine something more insidious, unreasonable, and unhelpful than American health insurance services. If you're an American, I don't need to remind you. For those of you who live anywhere else, it is so much worse than what you're assuming. In my experience, my first response to any illness or injury is to ignore it. That's an incredibly dystopian sentiment, but it's the unfortunate reality of this country. With all that said, don't expect any dealings with an insurance compa…

I've gone most of my life without really knowing anyone who is involved with multi-level marketing, aka pyramid schemes. Honestly, I kind of pity some of the people who get involved with them. But save for a couple of suburban moms I know tangentially, I've been kindly spared from solicitous direct messages from boss babes about how their products - or joining their team - will change my life. Until this year. It would seem my cousin has fallen prey to the seductive lifestyle that so many MLM g…

Giving Joanne the Scammer a run for her money

Scammers gonna scam!

Why are are these okay?

Natural-born con artists

It is normal to ask yourself occasionally, “does my job contribute anything substantive to society?” When I worked as a security guard at my college's library, I would have to watch unattended items on the security camera to make sure they weren't stolen. After almost a year of working at these libraries and countless hours watching footage of unattended laptops sitting on a table, I never saw an item get stolen. Never! Not once! My watching it had no positive impact whatsoever. That really mad…

If you haven't noticed, there's an epidemic of horrible bosses scamming their employees out of benefits, wages, and precious time. It's almost as if the managerial class as a whole is incentivized to rip off the working class as much as possible. How else is your boss supposed to become filthy rich? That money has to come from somewhere. Redditor u/ClubWag recently shared their infuriating tale of working for a lying, gaslighting boss who broke promises and cheated employees out of official pol…

Absolutely no one wants to hear more about those essential oils

What a let down

There's no shortage of shady employers out there laughing maniacally as they exploit the meek and unassuming. But a law firm attempting to illegally trick a fellow lawyer into doing free work for them? Some people are as audacious as they are stupid.

They say beggars can't be choosers, but there are plenty of shamelessly entitled people out there who have just enough audacity to prove the proverb wrong. The sort of people who get mad when free stuff doesn't meet their unreasonable expectations. Or job listings that seek PhD grads to babysit toddlers for fifty cents an hour. The only response these choosy beggars deserve is shame and ridicule, and we've selected a handful of especially egregious examples of entitlement from r/choosybeggars f…

All this for a console?
