Being a truck driver has its ups and downs. Your 'office' has some of the best views in the world. That is, after you've already suffered the miles of endless asphalt with the occasional cow pasture. But you get to meet all kinds of different people from across the country and pick up some cool yet questionable souvenirs from the infamous trucker stops along the way. It's just you on the road; you can spend your whole day talking to friends on the phone or listening to podcasts, and no one is there to stop you. But you also have to deal with a never-ending battle against time…and traffic. When you're driving all day long, you're bound to hit rush hour, and you can't just easily maneuver in and out of lanes or take backroads in your truck. Not gonna happen. You just have to endure it and hope your friend can talk a little longer on the phone. But one of the biggest perks? The pay. You can skip out on the whole four years of college thing and thousands of dollars in student loans and still come out making six figures. Yeah, you gotta put up with the downsides, but what job doesn't? At least we can enjoy our peace and quiet. 

Happy Friday, cat lovers of the internet! We've got that Friday feeling flowing through our feline veins, and it means that we're in a seriously silly mood. Plus, Caturday is just around the corner, so we've got cute kitty cats on the brain (is that really so different than any other day?). Today we're craving something spicy, silly, with just a pinch of kitty chaos. Naturally, the only thing that will satisfy this craving is the one, the only, orange cats! We're serving up a ginger gazpacho of goofball orange cats with one singular brain cell containing only three ingredients - sunshine, chaos, and orange flavoring. 

There really isn't anything like an orange cat. One second, they are little snug bugs, and the next thing you know, they're climbing your curtains like they are Mount Everest while screaming at you for snackies. They're a purrticular type of crazy, but we love them anyway. If you love orange cats, you're going to seriously enjoy this post, so scroll down and eat up!

It's not every day you hear about someone having a positive experience with their local HOA. It seems like 95% of the time, people share stories complaining about how controlling their HOAs are. 

A lot of Home Owner's Associations, or HOAs for short, have a habit of doling out fines for the pettiest little reasons. Some people have been fined for things like parking their cars in their own driveways, or for placing those little signs on their lawn that advertise the landscaper who trimmed the garden. There are a ton of tiny ways that HOAs can show off their might, and they're happy to rake in cash on the hefty fines they can assign. 

This person actually found an HOA that was reasonable. They had "genuinely a positive HOA experience," writing that they felt the HOA was reasonable and correctly advocated for keeping the neighborhood tidy. However, they had a Karen neighbor who loved tattling to the HOA over tiny issues. Instead of just minding her business, she had to get involved. 

U/Ok-One-3240 shares that their father had a great idea to get back at this neighborhood Karen without breaking a single HOA rule. Check out the full story below, then read about the person who was instructed by the internet to "let the newbie fail" at their job.

Happy Friday, ladies, gents, and any other hooman who claims the label of cat person. Let's be honest… this week has been pretty nuts, and we could all use some pawsitivity right meow. It's a good thing that it's time to meet the newly adopted faces of the week!

Each and every Friday, we bring you all a brand new collection of the cutest cat adoption stories we could find on the internet. Because if there is anything in the world that can turn a cat person's smile upside down on a Friday morning, it's seeing a whole bunch of awwdorable kitty cats find their furrever home.

As we do every week, we want to say a huge thank you to each and every person who adopted a cat this week. And an even bigger thank you goes to those of you who adopted the "impurrfect" cats - the senior cats, the sick cats, the rehomed cats, and every other cat that needs a little more love and attention. We wish you all many happy and healthy years together!

Sometimes, when you mess around too much, you find out the hard way that there are very real consequences associated with your actions. It's all well and good for you to do as you'd like and act as you please, but when it comes to facing the consequences you'd better come to terms with it.

That's what this employer is going to have to do when they realize that their driver went ahead and found another job (with better pay) after being told that his job was no longer available when he tried to come back after their usual seasonal winter layoffs. They had likely gone for someone with less experience or with shaky qualifications in an attempt to save a quick buck, but when that didn't pan out, they panicked and tried to bring the drive back urgently to maintain continuity of operations. What… did they just think he would wait around for them after being told there was no work available?

The silver lining and the lesson here is that it's easy to get complacent with your routine and forget that you could very easily make moves to change your life for the better. While it stinks to be out of work, especially when you're in a position that you couldn't be without it,  you almost have to be thankful for situations like this for giving you the push you need to make a better life for yourself.

In need of cash, with a slight gap before his new job was scheduled to start, and with some cunning advice from readers, the driver is planning on driving for his old employer until his new job starts, at which time he'll either ghost them or give his notice. Sounds like a win all around.

Hello, plebians. The Itty Bitty Kitteh committee is back in session! These miniature mousers are like walking, purring balls of fluff designed to melt even the iciest of hearts. It's a scientific fact (well, maybe not science, but undeniable truth) that kittens possess an unfair advantage – their cuteness is so potent, that it renders us mere humans powerless. The smol but mighty kittens we are featuring today are so cute that they have actually broken our cuteness scale. That's right, they are off-the-charts cute. 

These pint-sized fluffballs may be small, but their cuteness packs a serious punch. Whether they're curled up in a blissful nap or playfully showcasing their adorable paws, these kittens are the epitome of feline charm. Trust us, these images are guaranteed to be more captivating than a ball of yarn and more delightful than a saucer overflowing with tuna.

Much like the used car sales industry, the rental car biz can be a little shady. Like so many industries that take advantage of their customers being stranded, rental car companies are known to try and rip off their customers for every cent–however, one diligently vengeful traveling employee saw to it that his continued business was far more valuable than a tack-on fee. 

After renting a car for nearly a week while away on business, this traveling worker returned to the rental car lot to return the car and finalize some paperwork. He noticed an undisclosed $70 fee added to his bill stating that he hadn't returned it with gas in the tank, which was a bold-faced lie. The traveler insisted that the fee was a mistake, but the VP of the company wouldn't yield on charging the fee. 

So in retaliation (and after years of patience), the traveling employee blacklisted the rental car company from his multinational company's trusted travel list, effectively causing them to lose MILLIONS in annual business.

Hiring a student worker means you have to respect their class schedule. Unfortunately, most managers not only refuse to do this, but they also often hire students because they feel like they can easily manipulate them into complying with their ridiculous demands. We suppose the logic is that because they have minimal experience in the working world, they can be more easily pressured than the average jaded and disgruntled worker. You know what we mean by the latter… the guy who looks like he's been working for twice as long as he actually has been and who has bags under his eyes for days. We apologize if we're describing you too accurately. Do not worry. We are describing ourselves as well.

But we all remember what it's like to have a job for the first time and to realize that your manager is taking advantage. This student was asked to stay late twice within his first week on the job and came to understand why it's never a good idea to work at any establishment with that high a turnover rate. Keep scrolling below for the full story. For more, check out this post about an employee who called out their "forgetful" boss in front of the entire team.

Have you ever come home from a long day and circled your apartment complex for parking for 30 minutes? And sometimes, to add fuel to the fire, you see an 'available' parking spot from afar only to get closer and see a motorcycle double parked. What gives! Nothing enrages a person quite like the search for parking, which is why the biker in our next story was such a considerate neighbor–although, the Karen next door didn't see it that way. 

The biker lived with a roommate who also rode a motorcycle, so the duo would often share a regularly sized parking spot in the lot so that they wouldn't steal more than one space that a regular car could fit into. That's some neighborly consideration, right? However, the neighborhood Karen was peeved that the bikers were 'reserving' the best spots in the lot for themselves and insisted that they don't park two bikes in one spot anymore. 

Okay, lady, whatever you say! 

Scroll for the entire story of how one biker used 7 motorcycles (and 7 parking spots) to make a point to a nitpicking Karen. 

Cat are cute in every shape and size. 

This wholesome story reminds me so much of when I first found Spock, my own fluffy feline. I had just come home from work, and was about to unlock my door when I heard a small, faint 'mew'. It was so quiet, barely inaudible, that it didn't even sound like a proper meow. I thought it might be a bird, but as soon as my keys turned in the lock, I heard it again, and being the animal lover I am, I went to investigate. There he was, in all his tiny splendor… Spock. He was next to my car and looked up at me with big adorable eyes. I fell in love and took him in immediately. He didn't resist and was such a cuddle bug, even from the very beginning. The sweetest cat in the world. Now, he's a menace, but that's another story.

One hooman shared wholesome before and after pictures of a stray kitten they had found outside their doorstep. Scroll down to read all about it, and then check out these ferociously feisty feline memes to add more joy to your day.

I have a soft spot for the runt of the litter. Perhaps it's because they are so small and vulnerable, and all I want to do is nurse them to health and make sure they live a good, long happy life full of fluffy feline enjoyment. So today I bring forth a heartwarming story (in the form of pictures) of one such kitten's journey…

Meet Moki, a blind kitty who defied the odds when she was a tiny youngster. See, Moki was the runt of the litter, and she was A LOT smaller than her siblings. But hey, she made it to her first birthday, and now she is as healthy as a cat can be! There is nothing quite like a happy ending. I love hearing about these kinds of things. Scroll down and take a look for yourself at this cute critter's adventures. Then check out this fluffy fireplace full of feisty feline memes to warm the hooman heart.

Generally, in your working life, you might expect that, as you gain experience, skills, and knowledge, you'll be making more money… throughout your career as well as your time in a singular role. 

Where you might not be too surprised and even expect to be rejected a request for a raise or two, you'd never expect to have your boss approach you telling you that they're slashing your pay in order to get "more bang for their buck." Openly telling you that they're going to be saving money solely at your literal expense. While you might appreciate them for saying the (usually) quiet part out loud, you're not going to appreciate the disrespect and the hit to your paycheck.

This boss had the audacity to approach their marketing coordinator to tell them that she was slashing their pay. They shared their account of events with this popular online workplace community, venting their frustrations. The only silver lining here is that at least it was their side gig…

Are you ready to go home for the day? Well, thankfully there is not too long left until you will be free from the shackles of the working day. And that means it is time to start thinking wholesome thoughts about your feline fur baby.

From the cattos who sensed the bad energy of a hooman who was visiting and made themselves scarce, to the caring cat who diligently guarded its pregnant pawrent from everyone and anyone who came near, to the fluffy feline who sensed that its pawrent was really sick and forced herself into their arms for cuddles, to the selfish catto who only really protects himself. These heartwarming and hilarious cat stories are just what we need to get excited to see our feline fur babies in a few hours.
