Employee cuts coworker off from free rides to work after she refuses to chip in for gas: ‘I've been adding almost an hour to my commute just to help her out’

Those who don't live in walkable cities or have access to reliable public transportation know the deal with gas prices: it's not cheap. In an ideal world, we'd all have access to transportation that allows us to save money on increasing gas prices, new tires, brake pads, and cars in general. This world is not ideal for most, so it's essential to carpool when possible to save the planet and your pocketbook. The employee in this next story tries to do their coworker a solid by offering her rides, but soon realizes she's trying to pull a fast one and doesn't want to chip in for gas. When the employee asks her to chip in, she takes major offense and starts drama at work.

Why is it that nice people can't do nice things? Well, because people like the coworker in this story exist. You don't want to expect people to be entitled, but after enough instances of expecting folks to be decent, you learn to become wary of anyone's character. It's not a bad thing if you know how to balance paranoia and idealism…

Scroll below to read the full story, including some comments from Redditors who are baffled that this employee went one hour out of their way to work so they can do their coworker a solid (that they didn't deserve).
