13 Ridiculous Reasons People Lost Their Jobs

Losing your job sucks. It can mess with your head and your self confidence.

Getting fired brings so any new worries, at a time when you don’t have the headspace to deal with them.

But it’s even worse, when you’ve already got a lot going on.

1. How long is too long though?

Are we talking days? Hours?

A good boss might have suggested a nice fiber supplement.

2. I’m sensing a theme

Why are employers so obsessed with potty breaks?

What do they think you’re doing in there?

Image caption: Whisper

3. They were afraid she’d spend all day crying in the bathroom?

This one is so heartless I don’t even know what to say.

Image caption: Whisper

4. Don’t they know there’s a movie about this?

They were afraid she’d stay after hours to make amazing new flavors of pie.

Image credit: Whisper

5. What a headache

Whether or not it’s wrongful termination, you gotta hope karma gets them in the end.

Image credit: Whisper

6. I guess that’s one way to avoid a lawsuit?

Or to get out of paying short term disability?

Image credit: Whisper

7. It’s called the Emergency Room for a reason, guys

It’s nice to actually see one where the good guy wins.

Image credit: Whisper

8. I guess their boss wasn’t a family man

Anti-family, even. Just wow.

Image credit: Whisper

9. There’s a special place in hell for this employer

I mean, what exactly is a “good excuse” if not this?

Image credit: Whisper

10. Pretty sure working there would give me a panic attack

That guy can join the other one in The Bad Place.

Image credit: Whisper

11. Do they think it’s a gourmet celery restaurant?

No, really, do they?

Image credit: Whisper

12. If they didn’t immediately get their job back then this one wins them all

I mean, you can get a doctor’s note for that right?

Image credit: Whisper

13. I feel like there’s got to be a better way to say it

Somehow I’m in awe of both the worker and the boss.

Image credit: Whisper

I don’t think I’ve ever heard such awful reasons–beyond the workers’ control–for being let go from a job.

What about you? Share your story in the comments.

These Customers Should Have Been Banned for Life

I’ve said for a long time that everyone should be forced to work in customer service at some point in their lives.

If nothing else, I think it would help people to be better, more empathetic customers.

Sadly, people behave in some pretty astounding ways when they are out in public, like these 10 customers who had no shame.

1. Consider yourself lucky it wasn’t on the floor

I wonder if the kid will ever live that story down.

Image credit: Whisper

2. Turns out, when you’ve gotta go, you’ve gotta go

Benefit of the doubt, he forgot where he was and thought it was a toilet stall?

Image credit: Whisper

3. 40-year-old frat party

Move over college, that’s some sociopathic-level hi-jinks right there.

Image credit: Whisper

4. And you thought pee was bad…

The toddler is one thing, but the entitlement and lack of shame wafting off that mom!

Image credit: Whisper

5. This is almost next-level “no F’s were given”

Accidents happen. Just pretend everything’s normal and no one will notice it was you.

Image credit: Whisper

6. I may never look at a fitting room the same

Was she related to the drunk guy though?

Image credit: Whisper

7. Customer Service in any industry is not paid enough

No matter what they are paid, it is not enough. The public are animals.

Image credit: Whisper

8. But wait, it gets worse

You thought it couldn’t get worse, didn’t you?
That will teach you to think.

Image credit: Whisper

9. Drugs and McD’s, never a winning combination

If I turn my head and squint and try really hard I can think of grosser places.

Image credit: Whisper

10. Who knew K-Mart was a popular hookup spot?

To be fair, it seems like no one is using the restroom for its intended purpose, so why not?

Image credit: Whisper

I hope every one of these poor Customer Service employees has health insurance with excellent therapy coverage, because oh my goodness.

Can you imagine walking in to find ANY of this? Please don’t tell me you have a worse story, but if you do, share it in the comments.

Terrible Reasons Why People Got Fired

No one likes to getting fired. When the economy takes a turn for the worse, sometimes it can’t be helped.

And then there are times when it seems like maybe the boss is to blame.

Here are 12 reasons why some truly bad bosses gave their employees the axe.

1. They say “know your worth”

But do they mean it though? Honestly, the nerve.

Image credit: Whisper

2. Last one hired, first one…

Sacrificed at the altar of marital harmony? Eesh.

Image credit: Whisper

3. Do as I say, and as I do

Even if it’s totally illegal. Wow!

Image credit: Whisper

4. Yelling at doggos crosses a sacred line

They say you can tell a lot about the way a person treats their dog.

But should the dog have even been there at all? Was this a trick?

Image credit: Whisper

5. Toddlers gonna toddle

And they all fall down.

Image credit: Whisper

6. Lying liars lie

Seems like maybe HR was jealous.

Image credit: Whisper

7. Sorry, you’re out of sick days

Maybe next time cough on your boss and he’ll send you home instead of firing you.

Image credit: Whisper

8. Pretty sure it wasn’t the breaks

Pretty sure they didn’t want to pay for maternity leave.

Image credit: Whisper

9. Sounds like a really fun office

But if we’re honest, haven’t we all been that person at work?

Image credit: Whisper

10. Invent teleportation or you’re done

It’s not your boss’s job to figure out the schedule. Oh wait…

Image credit: Whisper

11. I’ll fire you before they can fire me

Oldest trick in the book.

Image credit: Whisper

12. Honestly, should’ve seen it coming

Can’t risk being reported for sexual harassment, right?

Image credit: Whisper

Frankly, those bosses sound pretty awful.

As annoying as job hunting can be, I think most of these people would be better off in new jobs.

What do you think? Have you ever been worried a truly bad boss was going to fire you over something stupid? Tell us in the comments!

Four Strangers All Named Paul O’Sullivan Formed a Band

If there’s one thing we’ve learned during the pandemic, it’s that we should get down on our knees and thank whoever we worship for the advent of Zoom and Facetime.

It’s allowed people to keep in touch with their family members and friends all across the world during quarantine and has even resulted in a lot of strangers getting to know each other.

And you never know, some of these strangers might even start a band with each other…and that’s what happened when four men from around the globe all named Paul O’Sullivan started jamming together!

Yes, you read that right.

It all started when Paul O’Sullivan of Baltimore, Maryland, was adding other people with the same name as friends on Facebook and he noticed that several of them were musicians, just like himself.

So he reached out to a bunch of other Paul O’Sullivans about playing some music and eventually, three other Pauls agreed and they started jamming…under the name “The Paul O’Sullivan Band”, of course.

Two of the Pauls live in the U.S, one in England, and one in the Netherlands.

 

The Paul in the band who is from Manchester, England, said,

“In this world, sometimes you think everything’s been done.

Particularly with the internet, everything’s been covered, everything’s been done. Well actually, this felt like a first. And it still feels like a first.”

Check out one of their music videos below!

That’s so cool!

This Woman Saved up Her Dog’s Excess Fluff to Have a Pair of Boots Made

We all love our pets and we like to honor them in different ways. Paintings, t-shirts, jewelry, etc. Heck, for Christmas last year, my sister got me a pair of socks with her dog Bea’s face on them because I’m the designated dogsitter for that wonderful pooch and, to be frank with you, Bea and I have fallen in love over the years.

And I wear those Bea socks everywhere!

But a dog owner named Soleil Pond might just take the cake when it comes to honoring her pet, a pooch named Nimbus.

Pond had been keeping all of Nimbus’ fluffy fur because she knew she wanted to use it to create something special as a tribute to her beloved pooch.

I mean, just look at that face! How could you not be in love with him?!?!

As the fur piled up, Pond thought more and more about what she might be able to create that would be unique…

And then it finally dawned on her!

Why not make a pair of boots to keep warm? So Pond gave all of Nimbus’ fur to a friend of hers who made her these beauties that Pond says will “tolerate temperatures as low as -40 degrees.”

Whoa! I think she might have started a hot new trend with these…

Photo Credit: Facebook

This is what living your best life looks like, people!

Have you done anything creative like this with your pets? If so, tell us about it in the comments.

And share some pics if you have ’em! Thanks fam!

Things You’ll Relate to if You’re Over 30 and Really Tired

I used to roll my eyes when older folks would complain about how hard simple tasks were. Even though we’re only in our 30s, my peers and I now relate to what they were talking about.

Here are 11 hilarious memes you’ll understand if you’re over 30 tired, and struggling to adult.

1. Hello Pain

I remember when I only needed painkillers for playground injuries. (Sigh) Now everything hurts for no reason.

Image Credit: Someecards

2. Major fridge jealousy

I break out into a sweat when I imagine winning an oven with convection cooking. The possibilities!

Image Credit: Someecards

3. Oh, kids

I’m not insulted, just saddened. Fortunately, my 30s aren’t quite this hard, but close.

Image Credit: Someecards

4. They’re useful, ok?

I should be an affiliate marketer for anything that fries, bakes or roasts food.

Image Credit: Someecards

 

5. Simple pleasures

Image Credit: Someecards

I can use my last scrape of energy to play Candy Crush instead of cook = win.

6. So many questions

Image Credit: Someecards

I don’t recall hating dust with the fire of a thousand suns until now, but alas. Here we are. Oh well.

7. Delicious and practical

Image Credit: Someecards

Don’t judge me. I find chilli super romantic now. Maybe because it’s red?

8. My hero

His name is Steve and we make delicious dishes that keep my children alive, so shut it.

Image Credit: Someecards

9. Midnight BLT

Who am I kidding, even eating a sandwich at 10:30 pm makes me feel like a gangster.

Image Credit: Someecards

10. Another chore

Like I would throw away money. Pfft. Those things are expensive! Waste not, want not.

Image Credit: Someecards

11. Tired and distracted

Before you ask, the lack of heat and steam didn’t tip me off because I was distracted, thinking about nachos and the meaning of life.

Image Credit: Someecards
