If you've ever sold something online, you know that the customers aren't ideal. They text you, 'Is this available?', only to ghost you when you answer in the affirmative. Or they promise to pick it up, set up a date and a time, and then never show up. Or they actually show up with half the money and give you a sob story on why you should give them the item for free. Yes, I'm speaking from experience. One man decided to sell an old laptop he had back from his University days, posting it online,…

The evolution of 'if I fits, I sits'

Time to take a break from your screens for a few hours and enjoy the great outdoors . After spending ten hours a day glued to your iPhone screen, it's so refreshing to take a few hours to reconnect with some trees and grass . It can be so relaxing to hike in the sunshine, breathe in fresh air, and listen to the birds sing and the bugs hum. Hiking itself can also be a rewarding activity. Alongside the exercise, many paths lead up to a gorgeous vantage point or waterfall. However, things don't al…

At least now she can go to the family vacation

It's snow season again and you know what that means– city slickers wearing jeans on the lift, clogging up the bunny slopes, and tearing apart the moguls. For an avid skier or snowboarder, there's always a love-hate relationship with the newbies. While we're happy that others are interested in a snow sport, it can get a little dangerous on the mountain when the new kids on the block are trying to get Insta-famous and spiraling out of control.

Reasonable response.

Be careful who you lend your house keys to… This person found out firsthand what can happen when you entrust the wrong person with something so important. While on vacation, this person caught someone snooping around in their belongings . They never would've caught this woman except that they were alerted by their security system. The OP, u/No-Coat-7393, caught this person red-handed. In the old days, it was much easier to snoop around, especially if you knew someone was out of town. It's fun t…

As you tiredly settle into your seat on the plane, the hum of the engines fills the cabin, creating a soothing backdrop for the long flight that awaits. Two seconds later, you notice the person who will occupy the seat next to yours… And you can already tell it won't be a fun flight. Oblivious to the unwritten rules of airplane etiquette, they take up the empty seats between you. That is exactly what happened to u/Leather_Ad_5602, who told their story about an annoying passenger on Reddit. This…

Since when were PTO and WFH the same thing?

To avoid giving employees actual real benefits, a lot of big companies have adopted the notion of ‘unlimited PTO’. After numerous studies have shown that employees with unlimited days off actually take fewer vacations, every CEO and supervisor within 1,000 leagues jumped on the bandwagon.

Sometimes you punch in a number on your phone to call someone, and a total stranger ends up on the other line. You called the wrong number, no big deal. Then you do it again, and again… and again. Until the person on the other side is wondering why it's so hard to call the RIGHT number. It's a fair question. This woman was contacted via text 5 times over the span of a year and a half, and it was always the same person inquiring about the same thing… A horse. The woman, OP, had no idea what they…

If you've ever worked at the front reception of a hotel, you will have heard it all. From, ‘This is the first time I’ve ever been asked to do this', to ‘I have never heard of city fees’, people will say anything to convince you to let them off easy. The funniest, most ironic part of it all is they usually say something along the lines of, ‘I’ve traveled ALL AROUND THE WORLD, and I've never heard of such a policy'. Immediately you roll your eyes… If they really are so ‘well-traveled’, then this…

posing for a first-class ticket to your heart

This is absurd

There is a reason why some people refuse to go on cruise ships. Perhaps these folks are suspicious about what's happening behind the scenes. Perhaps there's a fear of a Jack and Rose Titanic moment. Perhaps these tourists simply have better things to do with their vacation money. For the folks who never trusted cruise ships for a second, this thread, which was posted to the r/AskReddit subreddit, will likely confirm their suspicions. From water pipes bursting to lice infestation to live enterta…

Imagine working at a company for nine years and suddenly learning that your three weeks of paid time off will now be significantly reduced to only one week. First of all, for some of you, you might be thinking that the initial PTO plan was not exactly generous for a loyal employee who has stuck around for nearly a decade. That is a red flag in and of itself, but now the new PTO policy that is about to be enforced is pretty much as insulting as it gets. The new policy, included in a screenshot b…
