Where to begin with this one, beats me… One worker cleverly got out of doing their job for an entire day after showing up at a location for work, and getting kicked off the grounds. How did it even get to that? You will find out in a minute. So, what happened goes as follows… The OP was working at a large supermarket chain in England a few years ago, and because other stores were short staffed, OP was often asked by managers to drive and fill in. One day, management asked them to drive a couple hours to another location in the early hours of the morning. At first, understandably, OP did not feel like driving so long to another store, when instead, they could take a day off.

But, after much convincing, OP begrudgingly agreed, waking up at 2 am so that they could be there by 5 am. Once they arrived, they noticed that they had gotten there with a half hour to spare, so, cue music and good vibes! About twenty minutes later, there was a loud knock on the car window, with an angry face attached to the hand that had done the knocking.

OP slowly rolled down the window, and was bellowed at, told to 'Leave. This is private property'. To find out how the events unfolded, you can scroll down for the full story. For more, a Karen who took up two entire parking spaces that happened to be for disabled folk. She got fined a whopping $1,000, mostly for bad attitude.
