Working a job is something that the vast majority of us have to do. It's also something that the vast majority of us would choose not to do if we had any say in the matter.
That said, there are good employers out there. But bad bosses somehow have a way of being so much more memorable. If you're feeling a little bit annoyed at how your manager has been treating you lately, feel free to check out this list while you're on the clock.
I wouldn't expect the former occupant of my office to deep-clean the place or anything, but is it too much to ask for them to remove at least some of their garbage?
Anyone who's worked a physically demanding job likely shares the experience of expressing concern to their boss, having it ignored, and then witnessing a disaster strike.
It's a little tough to make this out, but the long and short of it is that men are now banned from wearing earrings in the workplace. This company needs to get with the times.
Some managers get to where they are through hard work. Other managers, though, really make you wonder.
Some companies don't offer holiday bonuses at all, but those that do really ought to research what a respectable bonus might look like.
The power of collective bargaining lies in unity. Unfortunately, that unity doesn't matter when businesses are willing to hire scab workers.
This boss used a lot of words (and some truly baffling capitalization) to justify the fact that they want to punish their employees. This is a demotivational poster if I've ever seen one.
If you're driving a company car, it's reasonable to expect things to work properly, and for your boss to listen to any concerns. In this case, I don't think cracking the window is going to help any.
I once worked at a well-known coffee shop and had a manager who would shrug off expiry dates. On a related note, I don't go to that coffee shop anymore.
Most jobs involve a certain amount of covering for other people. But at a certain point, the onus falls on the boss to make sure the right people are working the right jobs.
There's no feeling worse than working a lousy job for a lousy boss, and not being in a position to quit.
If only this manager knew that there was one weird trick to making employees want to work. As it turns out, offering a living wage is a great incentive.
You'd think the manager could pop over to a store and buy some soap dispensers, but that would require effort.
I can't even imagine the anxiety that waking up to this every morning must bring on. Like, employees are going to do their best when they're on the clock, but they certainly don't need this when they're off the clock.
If there's one thing that's true of managers and tip jars, it's that managers could not care less about whether their employees are receiving adequate tips.
The fact that these shoes have exploded isn't the manager's fault, but the failure to do anything about it is most definitely their fault.
Good for this McD's manager for buying a nice car, but it's kind of an unnecessary flex when everyone else in the restaurant is likely making minimum wage.
This is infuriating, no doubt. Then again, companies don't grow to this size by spending a dime more than they need to. The road to riches is paved with one-ply toilet paper.
This might be worth lawyering up over. After all, the email makes it very clear that this is supposed to be an increase — and going from $21.99 to $20 an hour is most certainly not an increase.
I'm less shocked by management's inaction than I am by the state of this printer. What happened to it? Why isn't anything being done about it?
