Working in a school when you look younger than the average student can be hard, both because you don't easily gain respect from students, or from teachers. But you shouldn't be yelled at or overlooked, which is what happened to OP, who was working as a para-educator, helping out at the school. Things were going well until one campus aide showed up and began going off on OP for a variety of things, mistaking them for a student.

First of all, I look 15, so I understand the struggle of looking younger than you are. Every time I'm around my sister's friends, who are teenagers, I am mistaken to be one of them, if not younger. But hey, when I turn 40, I am going to be super stoked about having a round face and chubby cheeks. Until then though, I'll continue to be a 30-year-old woman who looks like she's a kid.

Back to our story: OP was not the only person this campus aide had trouble with, and soon enough, push came to shove, leading to the campus aide saying goodbye without actually mouthing the words, or even showing up. Scroll down to read the full, detailed account of events, and then check out this VP who fired a boss for forbidding an employee to use a competitor's phone during a power outage, leading to 9 hours of overtime…

You've got to respect your neighbor's wishes. Many a neighborhood would be more peaceful if everyone could do that! 

Seems like every neighborhood has at least one person who's the designated weather warrior. In the winter, this person is awake at 5 AM, armed with a bag of salt and a snowblower. During the fall, they'll help you rake and bag your leaves. During the warmer seasons, you'll usually find them outside spreading soil for their plants, or watering their neighbor's vegetable garden while they're on vacation. Some people just love the great outdoors, and also want to lend a helping hand to their neighbors. 

Generally speaking, it's great to have someone like that around. Especially if you have kids to look after, or have a medical issue that makes shoveling difficult for you, having a caring neighbor is a lifesaver. In return, that neighbor will most likely be rewarded with a warm mug of cocoa, or maybe even some fresh cookies. 

The OP of this story is a big fan of their snowblower. They shared their passion for helping out their neighbors---OP routinely clears snow from the entire block. Well, almost the entire block… there's one neighbor who declined the offer. 

After that, check out the story of one job-seeker who lied on his resume, then got roasted by the interviewer.

There is a reason why some people refuse to go on cruise ships. Perhaps these folks are suspicious about what's happening behind the scenes. Perhaps there's a fear of a Jack and Rose Titanic moment. Perhaps these tourists simply have better things to do with their vacation money.

For the folks who never trusted cruise ships for a second, this thread, which was posted to the r/AskReddit subreddit, will likely confirm their suspicions. From water pipes bursting to lice infestation to live entertainment gone haywire, it turns out that so much can go wrong on a cruise ship that passengers may never learn about. 

Now, if you're the type of person who thrives on cruise ship vacations, power to you! We would never want to ruin that journey for you. That being said, if you're the skeptical type, consider a staycation instead. Keep scrolling below for the full anecdotes. For more content like this, here are some teaching anecdotes from instructors who had to confiscate students' belongings.

Because there is simply nothing else in this life that can raise our hooman spirits like the pawdorable face of a cat.

Bringing a four-year-old on a flight with you will require some planning in advance. At the tender age of four, most kids just cannot sit still for the duration of a plane ride. At that age, children want to run around and play until they drop. Sitting still and being quiet aren't usually in a kid's skill set at that age. That's why many parents find themselves stocking up on snacks and charging up their iPad before they head to the airport. At least a lot of planes nowadays offer personal TV screens for each seat, all equipped with dozens of movies and TV shows to pass the time. 

This mom had a different idea though, as u/WhisperingWonders7 shared with the r/amiwrong subreddit. She started begging the OP to switch seats for some pretty strange reasons. And the OP had a first-class seat! You probably know what first-class seating looks like just from walking through on your way to economy class. Imagine actually flying first class! It's so pricey that many of us never get to do that. Luckily for the OP, they were on a work trip, so the company got to foot the bill. 

Check out the whole story below, as well as comments from people who were surprised by the story. After that, these people shared their weather woes, from heavy snow to tornados. 

Meow, meow hoomans it is hump day and that means it is time to pawrty like a cat that just got surprised with fish yogurt and soup for their birthday. The middle of the week marks the beginning of the end of our work and there is hardly a sweeter notion that goes through our mind all week long. Well maybe except for what we actually get to do on the weekend or in our free time. Nonetheless, this is why we made today's list of furriously funny feline memes to get you in the festive feline spirit.

From the cats who rescue hoomans and put in the work to help them with their issues, to the cats who have evolved past biting and taken up mixed martial arts, to the kittens enjoying their nice new hats, to the exaggerated expressions us hoomans pull when looking at kitties in the pet store. We have got some of the funniest felines festively frolicking this hump day.

Not every employee looking to work remotely is grasping at straws with their reasoning; sometimes, the reasons are valid. Even worse, if those valid reasons are ignored, sometimes everyone at the office is going to have to suffer the consequences. In this case, we have an employee with a bit of a gas issue due to some side effects of a new medication. This issue was not controllable, and therefore not the fault of the employee. But of course, out of embarrassment, the employee did not want to spell out his whole situation to his boss and so his boss required him to be in the office. It didn't even take a full work day for that horrible boss to regret their decision.

Good meowrning, I Can Has-ers! We hope you're having a great week so far, but just in case you aren't, we're here with a big boost of funny felines that are pawsitively primed to make you giggle (or at least smile). A niche subject for sure, but have you ever realized how silly cats look when they're standing behind distorted glass? Imagine all those funny times you went to the funhouse mirrors, and now put cats there instead of your own reflection! It's definitely a silly sight to see, and we're sure it's going to make your day a little bit brighter.

These funny felines may be pawsitively purrplexed by these optical cat-astrophies, but we're full of glassy giggles thanks to their silly shenanigans! From fat cats behind wine glasses to pixelated pets, these comedic cat pics will have you wondering if you need glasses yourself! You might, but we're not expurrt on eyesight - only on funny cats!

It's time to admit we are all done with social media influencers.

We get it, you have a knack for filming aesthetically pleasing videos of your life, and that gained you enough followers to get sponsorships that pay your rent. But are you really 'influencing' anyone anymore? Are we not over those unrealistic 'day in the life' videos of people who don't even have a job like most of the world?

I think the people from this Reddit petty revenge story will definitely agree with me. OP was at the gym when she spotted a woman filming herself lifting weights, and in doing so she was also recording a lot of other people who were simply trying to work out. After a man walked in front of the camera a couple of times, effectively 'ruining' the woman's recording, she got upset and started telling him off - "Could you not? You can see I'm recording." That resulted in several more people purposely walking in front of her camera, including OP, and ended with the woman storming out of the gym.

It's a tough world out there, even our cats are starting to work as the prices of tuna keep rising. Don't worry, they may take a few cat naps while on the clock, but they're purely purrfessional! Some of these awwdorable cats take the more traditional route and become hardworking office pros and others take a more entrepreneurial route and started their own funny feline businesses! Whatever they're choosing to do, they're working hard to bring home a little extra cash to help support the house.

From kitty consulting firms to meowchanics and catshiers, these hardworking purrfessional cats look cute while getting the job done. Not all cats are willing to contribute to the bank account, so if yours is one of the cute kitties clocking in the 9-5 grind, be sure to give them an extra kiss on the head for us! They deserve it.

The next time you make a purchase from a company that treats you unfairly, consider putting this revenge strategy to the test. A man found himself facing hidden fees long after ordering a product from a questionable company. Despite thoroughly checking the company's website and finding no mention of these fees, he remained calm and decided to contact customer service. Initially hopeful for a simple refund due to the company violating his consumer rights by not warning him about the fees, his experience took an unexpected turn.

Instead of a resolution, he encountered repeated dismissals from multiple customer service representatives. Unable to speak to a manager, he took matters into his own hands and decided to expose the company. Using LinkedIn, he shared his entire story, even tagging all the senior executives at the company. Despite the company attempting various tactics, he continued to unveil their actions in the comments of his original post. Long story short, he got his money back. And then some.

These customers didn't let their poor social skills keep them from dining at restaurants. Instead, they showed up ready to eat food and interact with wait staff as minimally as possible. 

We all have days where we want to be left alone. Sometimes you just don't feel like interacting with people, and instead, you just want to curl up on your couch, order food delivery, and watch a movie. It's odd that apparently lots of people decide to go to restaurants when they're feeling antisocial. Why would you go to a restaurant and then refuse to speak to a waiter? If you're not up for chatting, there are plenty of other options in the world. 

No, these folks are just entitled. They feel like they're better than the wait staff, and decide to talk to them as little as humanly possible. Waiters who answered the question of the "worst thing to hear when you first walk up to a table" noted that some people don't even let them get through an introduction. Instead, while the waiter is welcoming them to the establishment, they'll just bark out the name of the drink they want. 

Hello, friends! We all share a common longing for love, connection, and companionship as human beings; interestingly, it seems to be a fundamental desire in our feline counterparts as well! If you're unfamiliar with the term 'bonded pairs,' let us introduce you to this heartwarming concept. Bonded pairs are a dynamic duo of cats who are the epitome of friendship, often found snuggled up together, showering each other with affection.

In today's compilation, we present a stunning series of bonded pairs of feline siblings. These endearing images capture cats cuddling, bonding, and expressing their mutual adoration. As you dive into this adorable showcase of cat sibling duos, sit back, relax, put your paws up, and revel in the wholesome goodness that awaits. Just like us, our feline friends don't get to choose their family members, so they, too, make the best of the bonds they've got!

Be careful what you wish for, because you just might get what you request…

Work clothes can be super practical, or they can be an utter nuisance. One employee relayed the time his car caught fire on the way to work, with all his work clothes inside it. Luckily, he was unharmed, but his clothes… Well, that was another story. Unfortunately, all that he had left was a pile of ashes. He had already given his notice to his boss and was told to return all work clothes before leaving. As this was his last day, his boss demanded he bring the work clothes he promised. But how could he? They were gone, at the salvage yard. Still, even after he explained the bizarre predicament, she insisted, telling him that if he didn't, his wages would be garnished.

Okay, then, he thought… So bring them in, he did. Scroll down to read what happened, and then check out this employee who got her coworker a parting gift that was quite memorable.

One of our biggest nightmares, as cat owners, is losing our cats. That's how it's always been, and that's how it'll always be. Yes, we have all seen those emotional reunions between cats and their owners, and we have all thought that those heartwarming reunions were adorable, and we all shed tears of joy, and we swear, we hope it never happens to us. What a nightmare. 

Even when we read about it happening to other people, we feel the panic. Because listen… we know that our cats are spoiled as heck, and there is no chance that they could survive out there for long without us feeling them their very special and expensive diet and wrapping them up in their very specific fluffy blankets. So, when we came across the story that you're about to read, we could only say thank you to the universe that we came across it after it had been updated.

We should all strive to leave the world a better place than we entered it—unfortunately, this doesn't seem to be a very high priority on a lot of people's to-do lists. There are quite a few people who seek to selfishly maximize their own position without a care for anyone else or a regard for the effects of their reckless need for self-aggrandizement and wanton urge for wealth and power.

Sigh, another day is about to begin, and we are so… tired. What- you thought that was going somewhere else? You thought we were going to say "excited" or "happy" or "full of energy". In January? When it's still so cold outside? Please. Getting up when it's cold outside and our cats are so cuddly is nearly impawssible! In fact, before we so much as think about getting out of bed, we need some funny cat memes to make us smile.

If there is anything in the world that can convince us to get out of bed this morning, it's some hissterical cat memes. Just because silly little cat memes make us happy, and being happy is necessary when you need to start yet another exhausting day at work. So, open your eyes, stretch your thumbs, and get ready to soak up some of these heckin' good vibes.
