Trying to find a parking spot when you're running late is a new level of stress. Next up, read about these hilarious Zoom court mishaps, like one person who shared that “There is a guy in Zoom court literally going through the car wash.”

Legendary stories like this one get told over and over again. Some things change with the passing years, while others remain the same forever. In a family with kids , the young ones will always need to go to school, do homework, eat at least three meals a day, and they'll also need rides to their friends' houses and soccer practices. It can be a whirlwind for any parent! And for parents who are doing all of the childcare and housework while the other parent works a 9-5 job, it can be a lot to h…

Why do men automatically assume that a woman can't build a closet, can't fix a sink, can't work in car repairs? Do they imagine her small fingers can't do the job? Dudes act like they know how to use their hands, but stories from women all over beg to differ. In fact, whenever I get a woman taxi driver, a woman mechanic, or a woman working anything that is normally a ‘man’s job', I sigh in relief. They're often more polite, more considerate, and won't hit on you. This customer entered a car mec…

One employee found themself without a car, and it was only because their workplace refused to give it up. It was a weird situation to be in! The employee, u/FMLitsSML, shared their story of the petty revenge route they had to take just to get their own car back. Layers of bureaucracy don't help any employee to be independent in their work. This person was responsible for showing clients around and entertaining them. It's pretty common practice in certain industries: it's a way to reassure payin…

One farmer was fed up with a car rental company after being charged $91 extra for no good reason. But wait, let's start from the beginning. The farmer's car was being repaired after being involved in a small crash, which forced him to rent a car for $91 a day. To the company's credit, they had some pretty great policies, such as 'no cleaning fee' no matter how dirty the car got, and unlimited miles, which was useful, as the farmer lived in the countryside. Finally, his car was almost fixed, so…

After accidentally buying a lemon , this person had to practically go to battle with their car dealership. No one ever said it was easy to buy a new or used car. There's tons of information to research about each model, and when you arrive at a dealership, you'll then have to deal with the salespeople. They want to put you in the priciest car with all of the fancy add-ons. But some shady sales associates go even further than that, as u/functi0nalPsych0path found out just after buying their vehi…

This truck driver couldn't believe what another driver was upset about. At least they had the ultimate loophole for getting out of almost any work-related scenario. The trucker in this story was driving their 18-wheeler through Texas when they encountered an angry driver. As a trucker, you have the unique privilege of getting to blow that extra-loud horn whenever someone bothers you. A regular car horn is a little loud, but the horn on an 18-wheeler can be heard for miles. It must be so satisfy…

You're not an Uber

Of all the reasons to get kicked out of a country , this might be the most embarrassing. No vacation goes 100% perfectly—there are always a few hiccups. There are the tiny things, like planning to visit a popular spot, only to find out when you arrive that it's closed for the day. Then there are bigger issues, like that one family member who forgets their passport at home, and remembers once they're at the airport. It's not every day you encounter problems like this, though. A traveler got depo…

Too many bosses don't know or care to go through company policy. But a handful of them know exactly which rules will benefit them… and not their employees. You would think that a boss who purposely makes their employee drive 200 miles a day without being compensated should be fired. I find it hard to believe I'm the only one rooting for this dude's professional demise… So what happened? This boss lied to his employee and worse, manipulated them into commuting 200 miles a day for 2 entire years…

This ride-share passenger is going to be telling this wild story for the rest of her life. You would too, if your ride-share driver took you out of the country without your knowledge! Ride-sharing apps are popular all over the place, from cities to rural areas to tourist traps. It's the thing to do if you don't have a friend to drive you to work, or the ride you take home from a party at 2 AM to avoid going on public transportation. It's a little treat for most people, but not everyone views it…

This aspiring YouTube couple are having some awkward realizations about their friends. One person took to Reddit to share the story of their mother and father's hijinks. It seems that as the reach retirement age, these parents are planning to sell their house. They've already bought a fifth wheel, which is the style of RV that is pulled behind a person's truck. Many a retiree would love to embark on a trip with their own RV, and plenty of them do. But these parents aren't just doing this for fu…

People with road rage should not be allowed to be behind the wheel. There is no reason that a person who cannot control their anger should be in a position where they could endanger so many people's lives. Unfortunately, unless they are caught violating some kind of rule, they get to continue in their rageful ways. One thing we do get out of road rage is funny petty revenge stories. This story was shared by a guy on Reddit who had to deal with a very irresponsible driver. The poster (OP) was mi…

No more catcalling

"If she wants to call it a 'promise', then she already broke long ago."

The decision this trucking company made really defies all logic. It's almost as if the decision was made by some higher-ups who were trying to save a few pennies. Unfortunately for them, those pennies they saved ultimately cost them plenty of dollars in the long run. Driving a truck is a career unlike any other. Truckers spend long months on the road, often living out of their truck and working demanding hours. U/Mallory454 shared that during their tenure as a truck driver in the 1990s, they we…
