Being an overachiever at work can mean a lot of things. For most desk jockeys and people who sit behind a computer all day, their goals can be a little more ambiguous than your average handyman. For office folks, we can't just say, "I want to complete remodeling this bathroom by this date"–we have to have more vague goals surrounding weird things like Excel speed, managerial standards, and that weird notion of 'shareholder value'.  The guy in this next video decided to create a newer and stranger goal for himself in the workplace: Defeat the Excel obstacle course in record time.  Yo ..read more

These siblings were trying not to argue in front of the kids, but they just can't agree on who needs to repay who.  Children will get into everything that they can. They don't always understand the concept of valuable items. They have no problem throwing food on the floor, breaking plates or vases, or keying your car, just to name a few examples. Their brains simply aren't developed enough to know why some things are more important to grown-ups than others. That's why it's usually the responsibility of the adult who's keeping an eye on them to ensure they don't run wild.  These two ..read more

There are certain people you do not want to frustrate in a restaurant, one of whom is most certainly the lead cook.  However, as in any fast-paced work environment, people can get hot-headed and conflicts can arise between folks who feel like they are stepping on one another's toes. This lead cook was often stationed in an accessible place in the kitchen so that everyone could easily access him and vice versa. However, on one busy night, the lead cook briefly left his station in the hands of a new trainee, who had been doing a good job, so that the line cook could help with another stati ..read more

Imagine paying for these nail polish nightmares… Well, a lot of people did just that, as they shared with photos that tell the whole story.  Getting your nails done is a lovely treat, but it doesn't come cheap. When you go to the salon, you show the nail artist your dream nails, and you just hope they have the skills to do so. Not every manicurist can do it, and it seems like a lot of them need more practice. That won't stop some nail artists from charging high prices, as a few of the people with botched nails revealed.  Some of the people below ended up paying for nails that were t ..read more

Most folks have had the unfortunate experience of waiting in line behind a Karen customer, but believe it or not, it could be worse. Just ask this dude, who ended up waiting in line behind three Karens.  This thread was posted to Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit by u/jarjarmullet, who silently watched as this trio of entitled older ladies kept giving modification upon modification to their order. This, of course, frustrated the sole employee making sandwiches as well as the long line of customers behind the ladies, but they did not seem to care. In fact, by the time they were finally pa ..read more

Staying up to date with technology has become an essential part of working-class life. It can be exhausting, especially with how quickly technology is advancing today. Think about it: not long ago, the internet didn't even exist. Now, we have a whole generation of employees working remotely or in a hybrid capacity. Who would've thought? But no matter your job, whether you work in a corporate office, factory, or restaurant, technology is constantly changing. New software to improve work processes, new robots to move the lines along quicker, or those dang QR codes to see a menu, we are all cons ..read more

There are tons of marketing ploys out there nowadays by big corporations trying to make more money. They may not make sense to us, the consumers, or even the employees, but they are policies set in stone that only upper management can dictate. I get groceries from a small, local grocery store where I live. Say I'm buying vegetables, and there might be a sign that says, "2 for $5!" I think to myself, "Might as well get two if they are on sale since I'm getting a deal." But then I notice in very tiny fine print it says, "Originally $2.50." That's not a deal! It's just a marketing ploy to g ..read more

You don't need to go to college to be a genius. You don't even have to finish high school! Some people are born with brains that think outside the box in ways that can't be taught. These people can do incredible things, as you'll see in this collection of photos below.  When it comes to creating new inventions, you don't need anything fancy. Check out that truck driver whose arm was hurting from resting it on the open window. Instead of letting their arm ache all day, the driver just cut up a pool noodle and put it on the window. That's a brilliant solution that probably costs under a do ..read more

There's something to be learned here about not taking things at face value and using a little common sense to draw a more logical conclusion. Often in life, things are simplified for us in order to cater to the lowest common denominator and, in the process, obfuscate the actual point of the information that was supposed to be communicated in the first place. An extreme example of this is our entire understanding of chemistry; we're taught from our days in middle school chem class—clear through an undergraduate bachelor's in chemistry—that reactions and the quanta of energy exchange happen in ..read more

No one wants to be micromanaged. Whether by a boss, a coworker, a partner, or even a family member, as an adult, we can handle things on our own. There is nothing more insulting than having someone constantly checking in on you to make sure you are getting things done. Well, that's just what happened to this truck driver when he was making a delivery to a client. He had to drive only a few hours and was running way ahead of schedule. As a trucker, sometimes the client has you install a tracking app so they can keep track of where their delivery is. But this entitled client took it even f ..read more
