If you could work just five hours per day, would you? Most of us would thrive with that lifestyle and would take that offer instantly. 

For many or most adults, working full time is a norm we get used to. In other parts of the world, people take three month vacations or work just a few hours every day. Meanwhile, America is a bit more focused on hustle culture. People love to talk about how they're always grinding away to make money and advance their careers. Have you ever been to a party and started talking to someone who brags about their long hours in the office? They'll start telling you about how they wake up at 4 AM to exercise, then head to work and sometimes stay until the late hours of the night. That sounds like a waking nightmare to me, buddy, but I'm happy that you're happy. 

The person who shared their story to malicious compliance seems like they had a completely terrible working situation. They were doing the work of multiple people. Other coworkers kept leaving the job. And all the while, u/Anonynominous' bosses were still unhappy with their work. 

Read the whole story below, and then read another encouraging work story about this coffee shop manager who decided to quit and then immediately block their bosses' numbers. 

Luna_the_pantera and Venza. This iconic friend duo - a black panther and a giant pawdorable Rottweiler - continue to bring joy to everyone by merely existing in each other's lives. No matter what they do together, our eyes are glued to the screen. We can't help it. Too much cuteness in one frame. Too much jealousy in our hearts over not being the ones to rescue them and cuddle with them every single day. Whether we're seeing the pair react with bewilderment to seeing a live rat or whether we're watching the pair go on a walk to the beach and scare some tourists… whatever they do, we love them.

But in today's video, he cuteness is kicked up a notch. Because not only do we have the awwdorable Luna and the precious Venza, we also have a new cat joining the family. And this is Luna and Venza's first meeting with the "whiskered walrus".

This Karen literally did all of this to herself. First, she marched into a popular Mexican restaurant with approximately 15 teenagers behind her, threw down her credit card, and let all these kids order whatever they wanted. Her abrasive behavior had already ticked off the manager and the other employees at the restaurant, so they were happy to see these teens order more than their fair share. By the time the manager gave the Karen a $250 bill, things started to get way more heated.

For one, she threw a loud tantrum and disrupted a long line of customers who were waiting for their food. When the manager told her she specifically said the kids could order whatever they wanted, she decided to get physical and shoved the then pregnant manager in front of two on-duty officers, who just so happened to be customers waiting in line. Thankfully, the manager was completely alright and shared her side of the story via this thread on Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit. However, the same cannot be said for the Karen, who was immediately put in handcuffs.

Keep scrolling below for the full story from the manager's perspective. For more, check out this post about a Karen whose kids got in trouble for being too rowdy at the movies.

Hidey-ho, grumpy cats! We would say "We hope you're having a great day so far", but it's Monday, so we know exactly how you're feeling.

But time keeps going, and we must return to the office to keep affording to pay for our kitty's expensive tastes. If we're going to go back to work, we might as well scroll through some hissterical cat memes to attempt to make our day better.

Only two things can make us less grumpy today - and those things are two extra cups of coffee and some feline funnies. From an elderly woman training her cats to steal from the neighbors to how to get out of a first date when they say they don't like cats, we're feeling less and less ornery by the second. Scroll down for the purrfect pick-me-up and a whole lot of laughs!

Hey, pals.  Let's delve into the world of litter boxes. We experimented with a more intricate design—a spacious box with a convenient cat door for easy access. However, despite our efforts, we found that the litter deodorizer didn't work as effectively as in a simple open-top box. Food for thought, indeed. We've since reverted to several open-top litter boxes, filled with hypoallergenic cat litter that we carefully select for our feline friends' sensitive paws. Yes, our cats are incredibly spoiled and no we would not have it any other way. Our cats are our babies, and you best believe we are going to spoil them forever. 

When faced with a full litter box, why not enjoy some wholesome entertainment in the form of hilarious cat memes? That's our motto here at the ICanHasCheezburger editorial headquarters! It must be a cat-person thing. So go ahead, treat yourself to some feline goodness. Because we all need more cat memes in our lives!

If you work somewhere long enough, you know all of the business's pressure points. And if you work at a coffee shop for 90 or 100 hours per week, you'd know exactly how to sabotage said business. 

This work shared their malicious compliance story of the time they really got back at their boss. This person was a manager, but they found it hard to work because their bosses were breathing down their neck all the time. They "only cared about money," the employee writes. That can be a big red flag in a business: it means that the owners care more about their bottom line than their workers or products. It's hard to get excited for a job where the owners could care less about anything except that sweet sweet moolah. 

The situation seems even more infuriating for the OP (original poster) because the owners decided to stop paying overtime while still blaming the employee for low sales numbers. With all that pressure, it was just a matter of time before the employee threw their hands up and quit. 

After you check out this person's inspiring story, read up on some utterly terrible bits of advice people got, like one person who was told in earnest to "Invest in DVDs." 

Hey friends. You guys know as well as we do that as human beings, there are few things we yearn for more than to love, be loved, and feel connected. It's just human nature! Well, it is also feline nature! If you are not familiar with the term 'bonded pairs' then allow us to introduce you to the concept. A bonded pair is a pair of cats who are the very best of friends, they can often be found cuddling with each other and giving each other lots and lots of loving. 

Today we are focusing on voids (black cats) who are part of bonded pairs. Black cats often get a bad rep, but they are just as capable of love and affection as any other feline. That much is abundantly evident in the purrfect pictures we are presenting you with today. Go ahead and meander on through this cute compilation of voids who are one-half of a bonded pair. Try not to fall in love with them all at once!

Generally, when someone is willing to lend their advice to help you with a problem it's best to listen. Still, no one likes unsolicited advice and that's an important thing to remember when you consider offering it—regardless of whether or not someone is in dire need of hearing it. Those who have elected to proceed without the proper knowledge and precautions are most likely to be the least receptive to listening to other people. Then, if they decide to arrogantly proceed with something that is blatantly dangerous, it's time to get the proper authorities involved.

This arrogant neighbor refused to listen when this homeowner advised him that the renovations he was undertaking on his property required proper permits and safety considerations. Despite the homeowner's best intentions and attempts to communicate his message diplomatically, he was met with a discourteous retort and decided to wash his hands of the situation. Eventually, the predictable occurred and the local governing body caught on to the unpermitted changes that were taking place and the neighbor paid dearly for not heeding the warning he had been given. Of course, he then blamed the person who had tried to warn him for "tattling."

Have you ever taken your cat to the vet's office and thought to yourself: wow, this is one of the most difficult things to do in the world? Because we have. Because when our cats hide at the vet's office, or when our cats come out of the vet's office wearing the cone of shame, or when we encounter crazy cat people at the vet's office, we think that... things can't get much crazier than that. But apparently, they can, and the hilarious twitter thread we will be covering today proves that. 

You thought you have seen mayhem at the vet's office? You have not. Not until today. These two chaotic cats break every record of every cat interaction at the vet's office that we have ever seen. Never have we before witnessed a cat fly across the room in an attempt to escape. Until today. And it's even more ameowzing than you think.

Serving customers is not always an easy task. Having said that, most people who decide to work in the hospitality sector are people who like engaging with customers and have excellent interpersonal skills. Nevertheless, it should be noted that there is no justification for rudeness or improper behavior on the part of clients.

The story that follows is an account of an irritated server. For some time now, the Original Poster (OP) has been employed by his brother-in-law, who runs a Mexican restaurant. Because of this as well as the possible repercussions, OP makes it a point to extend a warm greeting to every customer who walks into the restaurant. However, even OP, who firmly intended to maintain his composure, struggled to keep his cool and carry on with his day without reacting to the haughty customer who burst in and demanded service.

Having said that, if you're curious about what transpired between OP and the entitled customer as well as what might have pushed OP over the edge, be sure to read the story below! When you're finished, don't forget to read about the hotel employee who was driven to her breaking point by a demanding client who treated every employee like her personal nanny!

Dads and cats. An endless battle, and one that always has the exact same winner. The cat. No matter how many times your dad may say that he 'hates cats', the second you bring a cat into the house, it's simple a matter of time before said dad and said cat before best friends forever. In fact, it seems that those dads who claim to hate cats are the same dads who fall in love with cats the hardest out of everyone. These dads will be the people taking cats on walks and building cats fortresses and giving them a million snacks in one minute. 

And it's these dads that deserve to be made fun of. And they know it too. They see their own hypocrisy, and they simply do not care. So when you send funny cat memes into the family group chat making fun of them, you know what these dads do? They send some too.

Welcome to the workforce, where managers never pick and choose their battles carefully. This one decided to scold her employee, a lawyer at a firm, for leaving the office early one day because he had to start a few hours earlier for a deposition. The meaning behind her frustrated lecture was that she did not want other lawyers to get the wrong idea that they can leave the office at any time. 

Let us be clear if we haven't been already on this site: if you are an employee and you have to come in early for work, you should be entitled to leave early too. Office hours should be malleable for situations like those, and if anyone notices this lawyer leaving early, they can simply inquire about it and learn what happened. 

So after his boss's intense speech, the lawyer decided to take the opportunity to enact some well-deserved malicious compliance. He stuck to those 9:00am - 5:00pm hours in that he never showed up early and never left late. You can imagine what that meant when there was an important meeting scheduled before 9:00am one day where the boss heavily relied on her employee's presence. I guess she should have been more careful about who she decided to lecture.

Keep scrolling below for the full story. For more stories like this, here is one about a boss who tried to take her employee's first class seat on a flight.

Yuck. I mean, yawn.

Eh, same, same… Do you know what you're doing in life? I don't. I haven't a clue. Eat, sleep, work, repeat. The days drag on and turn into weeks that turn into months. Winter is crawling by at a snail's pace, and I wonder when the sun will come out (properly) and shine again. When does the cold end? Why is it still dark out past 5 pm? Summer, where are you?

I wish I could fly somewhere and take a break, but money-wise, that's a problem. I bet for most people it's a problem. Not to be a Negative Nancy, but it's nice to know I'm not alone. I'm sure you can tell, it's been a day. And hey, don't we all sometimes require a bit of extra serotonin? Luckily, I can provide that… via wholesome posts and memes. Scroll down to smile, and then check out this employee who quit and got reimbursed for $21,000 after their boss insisted they commute 200 miles daily for free.

Attention all cat lovers and feline fanatics–your cat may be adorable and smol, but deep down, they are up to no good. I know it's tough to hear since your sweet little baby just fell asleep in your lap last week, but the nature of felines is to be mischievous, sassy, and downright criminal. Although they have moments of purrfect bliss and charismatic meows, your kitty is only inches away from heading down the furrbidden path of debauchery and demolition. 

Never forget the potted plants that your cat has knocked off the counter! Never forget the dusting of litter sand in every corner of your house! And never forget the yellow bile chucked on your brand-new white rug. These kitties belong in the tabloids for their gossip-worthy behavior, but hoomans can't help but notice their criminal cuteness and innocent little smirks. At the end of the day though, cats are shrouded in the mystery of the 'will they' or 'won't they' principal–just like our celebrities, cats keep us on our toes with their showboating and their acts of craziness, spicing up every cat lover's life with a little meow and a lot of style. 

So scroll onward to enjoy the incriminatingly adorable collection of the cutest cats you might see on the front page of the Tabbyloids.
