Way too many of these stories include a manager who refuses to back his/her employees.

A government center in New Mexico offers an employee perk that is way better than a startup company’s snack wall or…
somewhere in the corner of the internet where they celebrate white history month, i imagine
People who use ‘but it’s the law’ as a defense make excellent fascists because they’ve lost the ability to distinguish law from justice.
On the opposite side of the spectrum, I expect amazing celebrations for my birthday. But I orchestrate them myself because I’m a grown-ass adult. “No cards or gifts please: just come to my home and imbibe all this lovely alcohol I’ve purchased for all of us as we dance and karaoke and game.”
“I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU’RE DOING THIS TO ME IN MY BIRTHDAY WEEK!!!” and hung up.
I had to give surveys for awhile as a second job to make rent, and it was fucking miserable. SO fucking miserable. Nothing is more aggravating than being on question 35 of 37, especially if the person is being a pain in the ass, and then deciding they can’t finish it. It feels like such a waste of time. I had one of…
I used to get phone calls from bill collectors for my ex-boyfriend who actually is dead. Once, his mother got a series of phone calls from the City of Oakland regarding a ticket he had failed to deal with when he lived there. After calmly informing her that he was, in fact, deceased, the lady making the phone calls…
I will never understand how anyone can support the death penalty, In the US there have been so many studies shown that black people are more likely to face death penalty than white people and that the murderers of white victims were 4.3 times more likely to be sentenced to death than those who killed black victims.…
Yup. I read the NYT article from a few years ago about English bulldogs. It made my blood boil.
I. FUCKING. STILL. FEEL ANGER RAGE. AT HOW ANNOYING. MANDY WAS.
I don’t fear for anyone’s health with the asscrack one, but don’t find the resolution as satisfying as the others, mostly because the girls are unlikely to ever realize their wrongdoing. I like the ones where people are made to feel embarrassed and ashamed for their bad behavior!
Basically I am really into the stories in which people actually get called out on their shitty behavior, and less into the stories in which people think they are being rewarded for their shitty behavior but are secretly penalized by something disproportionately horrifying behind the scenes.
Sure they do. Where do you think the term “statutory rape” comes from?
Revenge will be difficult, as I’m having a hard time trying to figure out something more disgusting to give her to eat than what she already ordered.
But they are all institutions where the people in power are put on a pedestal—Catholic priests, hollywood producers, and star coaches/coaching staff—are revered, given unfettered power within their communities, and all represent something “glamorous” that mere mortals want to be associated with. It’s a recipe for…
I look quite beautiful in all of mine.
That reminds me of a regular lady who lunched back when I waited tables. She always asked for a dry gin martini, and was never “quite” happy with how it came out. One day, may manager said to just wave the vermouth bottle in the general direction of the glass. From that day forward, we were deemed the best of…
Your mum sounds rad as hell. Please thank her for the work she and other women did to make things easier and fairer for my generation.
don’t hate me, i’d probably buy one & use it as an ashtray because i enjoy teacups as ashtrays.
