Law associate confronts intern about office romance: ‘My intern [is] benefitting from pretty privilege’

Fail Blog - Mon, 07/22/2024 - 11:00

This employee has been watching too much Grey's Anatomy. After discovering that her intern was having an office romance with a senior associate, she thought that the best way to handle the scenario and to "stay out of it" was to go around confronting both parties and starting more drama. 

The best part is how folks in the comments section were quick to call out the flaws in her logic about "pretty privilege," a phrase she used when confronting her intern. People accused the associate of being jealous and questioned why she seemed more frustrated with the less powerful party in this dynamic. If she really felt that something against company policy was going on and that something needed to be done urgently, that is what Human Resources is for. She is not a professional when it comes to handling these issues, but she couldn't help herself. If she really did not want to be involved, she simply wouldn't be involved. What would you do in this scenario? Sound off in the comments!

Deaf, Earless, Senior Cat That Looks Like A Seal, Runs Like A Raccoon And Feels Like A Furry Baseball Gets Adopted (Video)

LOL Cats - Mon, 07/22/2024 - 09:00

If it wasn't quite clear up until now… we love cats. All cats. In all shapes and sizes. But we have to say that some cats… have a special spot in our hearts. The "impurrfect cats" - not that such a thing even exists in our minds. The cats that others might look like and dismiss. The cats with no legs, who are purrsevering anyway. The cats with one eye - also known as pirate cats - who may be a little clumsy but are just as awwdorable as others. The polydactyl cats with extra toe beans. Hey, more beanz for us to love, what's there to complain about? 

And today's cat… the star of the show. The deaf, earless, senior cat who looks like a seal, runs like a raccoon and feels like a furry baseball that just got adopted and also stole all of our hearts at the same time. We're in love.

'The concrete bags... begin to harden into just big rocks': Construction worker lets thousands of dollars of concrete get destroyed by following boss's orders

Fail Blog - Mon, 07/22/2024 - 08:00

What was this construction boss thinking? His employee, u/Stumpy6464, was baffled by the instructions they received by their boss, but they did their job as directed. 

Some workplaces are just chronically understaffed. This makes for an unpleasant work environment for the employees: they're going to be dealing with annoyed customers, or they're going to be rushing around trying to get all of that extra work done. For this person, their construction boss decided to interfere with their normal daily procedures, and he learned an unfortunate lesson from it.

In the comments section, concerned people told the original poster that they should be careful that their boss doesn't escalate the situation. After all, the big bosses are going to find out about what happened, whether or not the original poster informs them about it or not. At least if they're prepared to cover their own behind, they'll (hopefully!) avoid taking any blame for their boss's big and very costly mistakes. People assured them that they'd almost certainly be blamed for this, and to be cautious while navigating this territory with the big boss. 

Up next, this school caretaker was surprised that his boss didn't want him to open the gate to students and families, but he agreed to do so. 

30 Silly Summer Cat Memes to Make Today Purrhaps the Best Monday Ever

LOL Cats - Mon, 07/22/2024 - 08:00

Happy Monday, cat lovers. Let's be real - nobody really has a "happy Monday" - but we can do some things that make our Mondays not terrible, at least. Some of those things include snuggling with our kitties for a few extra minutes in the morning, ordering a fancy latte instead of our normal drip coffee on the way to work, and scrolling through some furbulous feline funnies while we're working (who actually gets any work done on Mondays anyway?). With these things combined, we can turn a manic Monday into purrhaps the best Monday ever.

The 'best Monday ever' will still never compare to a really good Friday, but it might be as good as a festive Fursday full of funny felines. Cat memes have that power - they can make us smile no matter how clawful our day is and make our days a little bit brighter. So, let's enjoy these silly summer cat memes and make this Monday the best ever!

CEO's return to office plan is upended by CTO when CEO refuses to follow their own rules: 'Guess who wasn't there? Yeah, the CEO'

Fail Blog - Mon, 07/22/2024 - 07:00

"Rules for me but not for thee" has never been more accurate than when it comes to dealing with a C-suite executive pushing an aggressive return-to-office (RTO) policy, consisting of rules and values that they deem themself to not be a part of. If there's any leadership that will inspire loyalty, it's leading from the front, and policies that you yourself don't want to follow is not the way to do this. When you're just running a corporate entity, there are not many excuses for being an armchair general. It's not like there's any real risk involved—not like there would have been if you were riding into battle or venturing out into the unknown world.

This organization's work-from-home policy was pretty relaxed for the pre-pandemic era, becoming increasingly so as mandatory working from home dragged on. This tech worker even packed up and moved to another city, taking advantage of their new freedom. The company did the same, hiring workers from out of the city and well away from the office at a lower rate.

When the world began to return to normal, and employers began returning to their more traditional policies, it suddenly became trendy for executives everywhere to instate return-to-office plans. Kind of in a "monkey see, monkey do" sort of way.

'I am about $60,000 in debt because of them': Daughter has parents arrested after discovering they took loans out in her name to pay off their debt

Fail Blog - Mon, 07/22/2024 - 06:00

Having debt is a major burden. Whether you took out student loans for college, bought a car, or bought a house, you name it, no one likes having debt over their heads. But how would you feel if one day you found out you were $60,000 in debt and had absolutely no clue? And it's not due to negligence on your part, but rather, someone was taking advantage of you? That's exactly what happened to the woman in this story. She was doing just fine on her own, about to graduate college and enter the 'real world' and live independently. When she started talking to her parents about opening a credit card, which required a credit check, her parents started acting really sketchy. Come to find out, they had already been taking out loans and opening credit cards in their daughter's name to pay off bills they were running behind on. So, their daughter had no choice but to get her revenge. We love a good story about karma. 

'Banjo basically lives in my dad's beard': Sweet Couple Fosters A Tiny Feral Kitten Who Likes Banjo Music And Sleeping In His Foster Dad's Beard

LOL Cats - Mon, 07/22/2024 - 06:00

Sometimes, the cat distribution system works even more purrfectly than usual. Every day, someone gets chosen by it. Cats and kittens walk into people's lives with them never expecting it. Sometimes, you will find the kitten, and other times, the kitten will find you, but regardless, the system will continue to do its meowgic, and on very special occasions, it will surprise even us. Which is what happened this time. 

When we tell you that we have not a single doubt in our mind that Banjo is going to be a foster fail, we mean it. That is the only way this story can turn out. His first day home, and his foster dad is playing banjo to him and letting him sleep in his massive beard.

‘The company will crumble if I quit’: Boss guilts overwhelmed startup employee after meeting about burnout, employee has no choice but to leave

Fail Blog - Mon, 07/22/2024 - 05:00

This one goes out to all the people-pleasers out there. If you're someone who consistently de-prioritizes your own needs in favor of what is best for someone else, you may have found yourself in a similar work-related conundrum as this employee.

She recently had her first full-time position at a startup and was quickly taking on far too many tasks and responsibilities after the person who trained her quit without much warning. It was not long before the employee started experiencing a serious case of burnout. Meanwhile, there was no raise or promotion coming her way despite all the extra work she was doing every day. 

Finally, she decided to confront her boss about the situation, only to be guilted into staying at the company for the sake of everyone else's organizational workflow. Shout out to the folks in the comments section who motivated her to make the right decision about the kind of work-life balance all people deserve––even people-pleasers like us.

Top Karen meltdowns that backfired with instant karma: 'Oh go make a Facebook post about it!'

Fail Blog - Mon, 07/22/2024 - 04:00

We've all heard crazy Karen stories. Some of us have even been unfortunate enough to witness one in person. From Karen's insisting that they deserve special treatment to having a public meltdown over the slightest inconvenience, all Karen stories are highly infuriating to everyone involved. Typically, it is a poor worker of some sort (usually a manager) who can't stick to the Karen no matter how much they want to, or sometimes a neighbor who got the short end of the stick when they moved in. But the best Karen stories are the ones that result in instant karma. Someone has got to stick up to these Karens, or else they'll go about their ways, inflicting more entitled behavior on the next innocent person who happens to cross paths with them at the wrong time. Thankfully, there are people out there who are putting these entitled people in their place, one Karen at a time. Below, several people shared their stories of when a Karen was met with instant karma. And trust us, these stories are incredibly satisfying.
