'I didn't get a "Happy Mother's Day" text until 11:25 a.m.': Entitled Mom cancels daughter's furniture order after being 'snubbed' on Mothers' Day

Fail Blog - Sun, 05/21/2023 - 12:00

Don't mess with this mom, who's on the warpath after her daughter didn't celebrate Mother's Day in the right way. 

Mother's Day is important to many people — it's the day you show your appreciation for everything Mom did for you. Moms raise us and nurture us, so it's lovely to have at least one day a year to show how much she means to you. Lots of people either spend the day with Mom or give her a phone call. However, this Mom wasn't happy with any of the Mother's Day presents she received. Then, she chose to take it out on her own daughter. The post was deleted almost immediately, but we captured the drama and complied the comments below as well. 

While there are many parts of this story that are shocking, but perhaps the strangest part is that Mom wanted to be called before 11:25 a.m. Lots of people wake up at 5 or 6 a.m., so maybe this mother had been awake for a while already. But that's still really early to be calling — maybe the daughter thought her mom would want to sleep in! Doesn't matter to this Mom, who just assumed the worst. 

Next, these people shared foods they think are so gross that people are only pretending to like them. 

'You're faking!': Karen believes woman doesn't need to use her wheelchair, woman reveals her post-surgery knee

Fail Blog - Sun, 05/21/2023 - 11:00

Karen finally learned what happens when you assume. In this scenario, she decided it was within her jurisdiction to throw a tantrum at a store at this Redditor who was in recovery from knee surgery. 

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/EntitledPeople subreddit, a perfect home for this entitled Karen. The Redditor's boyfriend and friend were trying to lift her spirits by rolling her around the store quickly. This angered Karen, who felt that they were being inappropriate. Mind you, the store was nearly empty that afternoon, so it's not like what they were doing was dangerous or anything.

 

Still, Karen felt the need to intervene, as Karens are wont to do. However, when OP decided to unwrap her bandages and prove to Karen that she was completely mistaken and out of line, Karen would come to regret inserting herself into this situation. She had it coming!

'Quit my job suddenly via email': Worker quits their job because of a bad boss, boss demands they come in and talk face-to-face

Fail Blog - Sun, 05/21/2023 - 09:00

Seldom do you quit a job and ever want to go back. It's surprising how the sudden absence of a paycheck removes all desire to set foot there ever again. This is especially true when you quit because of a bad boss or coworker; you would hope never to see them again if you can manage it.

When your boss is verbally abusive, going in for one last "face-to-face" discussion is probably the last thing you should do; the last thing you want to do is give them another chance to get in your face or spin a narrative against you. 

That's the advice that this worker received when they recounted their experience at their toxic workplace with their terrible boss. They shared that their boss had slowly become more and more toxic and angry over the course of their time at the company, leading them to look for other work and quit via email once they had found one. Their boss then contacted them, asking them to come into the office. They shared their story on Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit community, asking commenters what they should do regarding their boss's request.

Read on for excerpts of the thread below. Next, check out this boss who tried to have a worker arrested after they left, thinking they had been fired.

'A deal is a deal': Dude shocked to find the guitar he sold for 4k is worth 50k

Fail Blog - Sun, 05/21/2023 - 08:00

No one can agree on what this guy should have done after he bought a guitar for less than 10% of it's true value. 

This is one of those posts from r/AmItheA**hole that make a great read. That's because even after reading this dude's story, plus the update, we still can't decide who was in the wrong in this situation. 

As the OP, u/fhdksTHROWAWAY wrote, their wife's coworker was selling a guitar. As an avid guitar player for decades, the OP was thrilled, and decided to help this guy out by buying the instrument. The coworker was selling all these items that belonged to his father after he'd passed away. The coworker named a price, the OP agreed, and the OP bought it. It could've been that simple, but the OP knew the guitar had a worth way higher than $4,000. It created a messy situation, not helped by the fact that this guy was their wife's coworker,  making him pretty unavoidable. 

Next, take a look at these brutally honest (and truly hilarious) signs. 

Viral Tweets About Funny Cats Being Ridiculously Picky Eaters And Doing Anything To Get The Food They Want

LOL Cats - Sun, 05/21/2023 - 07:00

If you are someone who owns a cat, then there is one thing you know without a doubt. Cats are weird when it comes to food. They just are. Every cat has one non-meat food that they are obsessed with - hilariously so. Those cats will go to any length to get that food. Those cats will steal that food right off your plate. Shamelessly. We've seen cats who are obsessed with sweet potatoes. We've even seen cats who are obsessed with cucumbers

Every cat, we swear, has a food like that. And once said cat chooses said food, they will not only do anything in their power to get it, they might straight up go on a strike and not eat anything else until you cave. We have all heard of dogs being picky eaters, but you have no idea how bad it can get whenever cats go that way.

‘I was denied a raise, so I called the IRS': Employee finds out boss's unemployed wife makes $60,000, contacts IRS after being denied raise

Fail Blog - Sun, 05/21/2023 - 07:00

Employees are constantly being denied raises in salary due to 'tough times', but often companies can very much afford to give employees more money; it's just that they have hidden expenses that they don't necessarily broadcast in the company group chat. Such as 60k salaries to bosses' wives who don't even have a job, let alone work at the company. 

Yep, in this case, OP took to r/antiwork and expressed his dismay when he found out that one of his boss's wives was receiving a salary of 60k, despite not working a day in her life at the company. Prior to finding this out, 4 people were laid off because the company 'couldn't afford to keep them on', and OP was denied a raise.

OP's boss was also ironically and vehemently against taking days off because according to him, 'salaried employees should work'. Well, well, you don't say. Management and their delusional tendencies. OP wanted to call him out, but Redditors were quick to point out that that would just give his boss time to cover his 'mistake'. They urged OP to call the IRS instead.

Scroll down to read what happened next. For more stories like this one, here is a tenant who approached his landlord and asked to be reimbursed for fixing the boiler part after sitting in a freezing house. His landlord refused, so the tenant moved out, taking the boiler part with him, rendering the boiler completely useless. Petty revenge, indeed.

'We were now operating on a shoe-string budget so the manager got as much money as they could': Extreme cost saving measure causes costly pricing error

Fail Blog - Sun, 05/21/2023 - 06:00

At a certain point, cutting costs to extreme measures will just cost you more in the long run or cause your entire business to fold under its own weight—or both… simultaneously. 

The short-sighted pursuit of profit is a trap that businesses often fall into—and why not? It's an easy methodology to follow that makes sense and follows logical reasoning: Spend less, earn more. The issue is that you have to spend money to earn money, and not investing in proper resources can cost you more when you need to hire to replace the workers who you weren't paying enough to keep and train the new hires up to replace the knowledge you lost with the workers. 

Similarly, not investing in proper procedures for the management of stock can cost you handfuls more when it is lost or plain old expires. 

This worker attempted to right the wrongs of the cost-cutting measures of the corporate entity that had bought the local grocery store where they worked. After receiving backlash, they decided to let the company and manager learn their lesson the hard way and watch the stock expire.

Despite Family's Advice To Not Move With Their Cat, Reddit User Takes The Cat On The Flight And Proves Family Wrong (Viral Thread)

LOL Cats - Sun, 05/21/2023 - 06:00

One thing that is true for all of us is that we want the best for our cats. No matter what. We take our cats to the vet even though they don't want to because we know that it's good for them. We don't give them every single thing that they want to eat because we know that some things are not good for them. We try our best to make sure that they are healthy and happy. But sometimes, you are faced with a difficult decision, like the person in this thread who decided to move to a different country and didn't know what to do about their cat.

We covered this story a month ago when it blew up for the first time. There was a whole debate about whether this person should take their cat on the flight or not and in which fashion to do it. Well, now, a month later, we are happy to say that although the trip wasn't the easiest one, it was well worth it.

'Your coworker is a child': Coworker accuses employee of being responsible for having to pay $4,000 for hotel room

Fail Blog - Sun, 05/21/2023 - 05:00

The audacity of this coworker to expect reservations to just be made for him. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit by u/chibbychon, who was closely monitoring discount prices for an upcoming work conference. Their coworker asked the employee to book their hotel room for them, but the employee explained that they couldn't because they didn't have all his information. Completely understandable!

 

Well, by the time the coworker realized he had to book his own hotel room himself like an adult, he missed out on the discount and had to pay $4,000 on a third-party site. He ended up getting upset at the employee in the workplace and blamed them for his own incompetence. Folks in the comments section suggested that the employee should get in touch with their supervisor or HR and explain what happened. This employee is not their assistant and should not be treated as such.

'Nobody likes a snitch': Evil coworker gets top performing competition at work fired for taking breaks

Fail Blog - Sat, 05/20/2023 - 22:00

Never trust your coworkers! Especially not this guy, who was clearly threatened after 25 years on the job when the top-performing employee on the team had only been working at the company for a year. 

 

This thread, which was posted to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit by u/CubsFanHan, only further proves the concept that if the work gets done, what does it matter if an employee takes a few breaks throughout the day? No one seemed to be suffering from those breaks, except for the jealous coworker. The most ironic part of the story is that the Redditor was fired by HR mere minutes after receiving a gift card celebrating him for his success on the team. Oh, well. If anyone is suffering long-term here, it's the company, which lost one of its most valuable employees.

Funny And Wholesome Moments Of Cats Hanging Out With Other Animals: ICanHasCheezburger Edition

LOL Cats - Sat, 05/20/2023 - 22:00

For this week's challenge, to kick Caturday off with some wholesomeness, we asked you guys to tell us about the cutest and funniest encounters that your cat has ever had with another animal! 

Cats are notoriously known as solitary creatures. They're independent, they do whatever they want whenever they want to. They can handle themselves and don't need anyone else. If a cat wants a companion - whether it's you the human or someone else - they choose them, which makes the friendships all the more special. Now, we have seen cats befriend dogs before- unlikely as that may seem. We have seen cats befriend cockatoos and other birds, even though they're so different. We've even seen a cat become friends with a horse, despite their size difference. And we knew that our amazing audience will have even more interesting stories to tell us once we challenge them. And you did not disappiont.
