New hire shows up 15 minutes late and insists he 'doesn't take orders': 'By 3 PM his keycard didn't work any more'

What was this guy thinking, truly? 

Have you ever encountered that type of person who is so bragadocious and full of themselves, but they're also not fooling anyone with their swagger? This type of person will wear a pricey watch to try and signal how wealthy they are, but then they can't stop talking about how much they paid for it, which immediately makes them look really uncool. This type of person wears gaudy clothes covered with brand names, and insists on leasing a car they can't even afford just to keep up appearances. You can't fool everyone for long, though. If you have a huge ego, people are going to be bemused, annoyed, or just straight up find you irritating to be around. 

This employee tried to act too good for everyone else on his very first day of work. He clearly thought he was making everyone admire his confidence, but there's a thin line between being confident and being insufferable. Check out the very funny story below, as well as comments from people who loved how quickly justice was dished out to this braggart. 

Next, read about some diners who had very ridiculous requests for their waiters, like one person who was adamant that she be made a "pepperoni pizza with no pepperoni," for some reason.
