On-the-Job Annoyances That Make Folks Want to Quit

My job certainly has some annoyances.

But even on my worst days, I know that other jobs will have their own annoyances too.

The grass is always greener, right?

But some jobs are beyond annoying. As these posts prove, some jobs are the worst.

Here are 15 examples where people promise that their particular grass is not greener.

First, there’s dealing with kids. And their parents.

1. Fevers and sniffles do not make happy campers

Please leave snot-monsters at home.

I worked at an indoor play park, it was cool, because we could have fun after closing. But really annoying when parents broughttheir sick kids thereand didn't care.

2. Grumpy parents need not apply

They suck the joy right out of everything, don’t they?

Working at a kid's play center was the worst. Parents are total a**holes.

Image credit: Whisper

3. It doesn’t get much better when they grow up.

At least no helicopter parents, yeah?

Teaching high schoolstudents over the summer was an awful job. Some were great, but the ones that were bad were absolutely unbearable.

Image credit: Whisper

4. And don’t forget the adults who act like children

They might be the worst ones of all.

My current job is the worst. I am receptionist for 400 of the most entitled a**holes ever!

Image credit: Whisper

Then there are stores, where customer is king.

5. It’s hard to imagine it being worse than fast food

Unless you have a perverse love of putting the canned goods on top of the produce. ?

Being a bagger at a grocery store is a terrible job. People treat you like you're incompetent and worthless. They don't even treat you like a person. Even worse than fast food.

Image credit: Whisper

6. That pretty much says it all

On the bright side, you could get all your shopping done without a second trip.

Walmart is literally the most annoying job ever.

Image credit: Whisper

7. Definitely not the place to be if you like things to stay neat and tidy

Now I’m going to feel bad every time I take a box off the shelf.

Most annoying job ever? Working in a grocery store. Fixing aisles perfectly then coming back in less than five minutes to see that they are back to the way they were before.

Image credit: Whisper

8. But I’d rather straighten the boxes than clean the toilets

I just literally can’t even.

Working Walmart overnight maintenance sucks. Someone once pooped in the urinal....

Image credit: Whisper

9. Manual labor is definitely not fun

But still preferable to the bathroom situation.

The most annoying job I ever had was cart pushing for Walmart. Our mule was broken 80% of the year I worked there.

Image credit: Whisper

And as annoying as it is to receive calls from telemarketers–just imagine how it must be for them.

10. Frankly it sounds terrible

Especially considering no one answers their phones anymore.

Worked in a call center for a large data storage and shredding company. No employee there was treated as a person. We were all treated like things, and told how replaceable.

Image credit: Whisper

11. I mean, did this person work at the same place as the last person?

Because that has to be illegal.

I lasted one day in telemarketing, then had a seizure because they wouldn't let me take a food/water break or have my anticonvulsants on time. I left in an ambulance and never went back.

Image credit: Whisper

Last, but certainly not least, are the odd jobs that don’t fit into a category, but all have their generl terribleness in common.

12. Imagine being a jerk to the person who’s supposed to save you

And imagine having to save them. “Still want that towel?”

When I was life guarding at a resort people would ask me the most ridiculous questions. Do you guys deliver pizza? Can I park there?Can I have a towel? How much to stay another night?

Image credit: Whisper

13. I didn’t even know this was a job

It sounds pretty awful.
I wonder if it would be any better in a more appealing climate?

Selling meat out of the back of a truck door to door in the Arizona desert during the summer was the most annoying job I've ever had.

Image credit: Whisper

14. When you gotta be a bouncer, and you don’t even get tips

I’ve never understood people being upset about being carded.
Like, how dare you think I look young?

Liquor stores are the worst. Gotta card everyone and they get pissed off. Then you have drunks who come in and you gotta deny them. Usually have to throw them out as well.

Image credit: Whisper

15. Side gigs are hard work

Sometimes the money’s not all it’s cracked up to be.

My side job is stripping. It's good money but probably the most annoying job I've ever had...

Image credit: Whisper

Those all definitely make me feel better about the little peccadilloes (as Moira Rose would say) that I deal with at my job. What about you? Tell us in the comments.

Reasons Guys Lost Interest in Their Girlfriends

S**ual attraction is just the weirdest thing. For so many of us it can be one of the main driving forces of our lives, and also it can just go away in a heartbeat.

It’s strange the tricks our own biology pull on us. And our own psychology. And other ologies I’m probably not fit to speak on.

The point is, you’re gonna find yourself drawn to and drawn away from people a LOT within your life, and there’s no great way to know exactly how to handle that every time.

Here, for instance, are ten stories from men who for one reason or another just suddenly found themselves no longer sexually attracted to their girlfriends.

10. “She won’t take care of herself.”

Whoa, those are two very different categories for concern there.

Source: Whisper

9. “I get hookers.”

Bruh I don’t know what a “physical looking girl itch” is but I think you should go to a doctor.

Source: Whisper

8. “I don’t know.”

Is it you? Is it me?

Source: Whisper

7. “She refuses.”

All shallowness aside, that is an alarming amount of weight for a person to gain in a few years.

Source: Whisper

6. “Part of it is because…”

I mean yeah, that’ll do it.

Source: Whisper

5. “I can’t tell her the truth.”

How did the two of you end up together in the first place?

Source: Whisper

4. “She also wants braces.”

Well, brace yourself.

Source: Whisper

3. “Perfect in every way except…”

A disheartening number of entries here about this…

Source: Whisper

2. “Boobs.”

Well, this is about as caveman simple as it gets.

Source: Whisper

1. “Let herself go.”

But where, is the question.

Source: Whisper

I don’t even know how to respond to some of those. What are men?

Have you had an experience like this?

Absolutely Brutal Breakups That Happened During Christmas

Can you imagine anything worse than a bad breakup?

How about a bad breakup at Christmas?

That’s right, insane as it may seem, and counter to everything that the holy canon of Hallmark films have taught us, breakups do indeed happen on and around the winter holidays, and it is absolutely brutal, which is probably why these people took to the internet specifically to vent about it when it happened to them.

10. “Through text.”

Alright, you win breakups. or lose? I’m not sure what the scale is here.

Source: Whisper

9. “It’s frustrating.”

Um, yeah, I think it’s safe to say that’s probably an understatement.

Source: Whisper

8. “I keep hearing Christmas love songs.”

There can be nothing worse than the holiday season when you’re lonely.

Source: Whisper

7. “I was going to propose.”

Hopes dashing through the snow.

Source: Whisper

6. “A set of expensive rings.”

But did you get him a partridge in a pear tree?
If not that may have been where you went wrong.

Source: Whisper

5. “Overthinking is ruining my life.”

I might as well get that tattooed on my body, are you kidding me.

Source: Whisper

4. “Now it’s right before Christmas.”

Sounds like your other breakups were pretty mild.

Source: Whisper

3. “I get to save so much money.”

Always look on the bright side, I guess.

Source: Whisper

2. “The only thing on my Christmas list…”

This reads like the logline for a weird romantic comedy.

Source: Whisper

1. “I can’t stop thinking.”

Some of them just never go away.

Source: Whisper

Here’s to the next set of holidays, may they be a lot happier.

Random Ways That Gay Men Met Their Boyfriends

Some of my favorite love stories are of gay couples overcoming adversity to find each other, despite the numerous roadblocks that society has constructed.

After all, who didn’t love Schitt’s Creek?

Sometimes they might have to look in unconventional places, but it’s good to know love is out there.

Here are 13 random places gay men found love.

1. Sometimes all it takes is a kiss

There’s a reason the lyric goes, “It’s in his kiss.”

Image credit: Whisper

2. It’s nice when you can find someone in high school

Because school is hard enough without one more thing.

Image credit: Whisper

3. After graduation, you might consider joining a gym

I personally hate the gym, but it seems like a good place to meet buff guys.

Image credit: Whisper

4. If the gym is too intense, you could join a sporting club

If I had known there were skee ball teams, I’d have been a lot sportier.

Image credit: Whisper

5. And then of course there are nightclubs

And strip clubs.

Image credit: Whisper

6. It’s ok to spend your 20s pursuing interesting professions

Apparently it’s more common than you might think.

Image credit: Whisper

7. Jumping out of a birthday cake is optional

Jumping out of a wedding cake would be next level.

Image credit: Whisper

8. If clubs aren’t your thing, there’s always the internet

And so many apps.

Image credit: Whisper

9. Like, SO many apps

An app for every occasion.

Image credit: Whisper

10. There’s an app for that too

You just never know.

Image credit: Whisper

11. And if apps aren’t your thing, there’s always games

The trick is to find your tribe.

Image credit: Whisper

12. And for the truly brave-at-heart: just make a connection

TikTok, Twitter, Instagram. Any DM will do.

Image credit: Whisper

13. Or make a connection in person

Fruit and veg can be extremely erotic.

Image credit: Whisper

The truth is, you just never know where you’ll meet your special someone–but to find them, you have to put yourself out there and be ready to embrace love.

Weird Things That Landlords Didn’t Expect to Find

When I moved out of my last apartment, I tried to leave it spic and span to make sure I got my deposit back.

Turns out, not every tenant cares so much about getting the cleaning deposit back. Here are some unexpected things that landlords found–whether their tenants had moved out yet or not.

1. Some people just like fish

I think the real question here is why are you borrowing his toilet paper?

Image credit: Whisper

2. Illegal drugs are illegal

But at least they offered you some, right?

Image credit: Whisper

3. It’s hard to get rid of smells

It just seeps into everything doesn’t it?

Image credit: Whisper

4. A little help never hurt anyone

Something about the ellipses tells me he was glad she wasn’t home.

Image credit: Whisper

5. Slowly shut the door and back away

I hope he had a his own giant bottle of lube.

Image credit: Whisper

6. At least they painted the place

What I really want to know is, what kind of exotic animals though?

Image credit: Whisper

7. Wish she’d only painted it, don’t you?

There could always be something worse. Like actual bodies in the walls.

Image credit: Whisper

8. Or dogs–in the basement

I just can’t.

Image credit: Whisper

9. Just how many cats are too many cats?

At least they weren’t in the basement or the walls.

Image credit: Whisper

10. Is that what they call ‘anal retentive’?

Maybe he was just trying to make a good fertilizer.

Image credit: Whisper

11. And you thought the furnace room guy was bad

I just… are you sure? Just why?

Image credit: Whisper

12. And you thought the oven poo was problematic

Maybe rock, paper, scissors which one is worse?

Image credit: Whisper

13. Apparently it’s not that uncommon

I mean. I guess you get used to it eventually? Or you cry a lot.

Image credit: Whisper

I was pretty shocked to read about some of these.

What about you? Let us know in the comments.

Check Out These Secrets That Landlords Revealed About Their Tenants

Sometimes I think being a landlord would be a nice way to earn more money.

But then I read stories like these about just what it means to be a landlord in this day and age, and I’m not so sure.

1. Collecting rent isn’t easy

And sometimes, your tenants will try to get even.

Image credit: Whisper

2. It doesn’t get easier

Deadlines mean nothing, apparently.

Image credit: Whisper

3. But when the going gets tough… just call their mommy

No one comes to the rescue like a mom.

Image credit: Whisper

4. Maybe they’re not paying you enough

Do you charge by the hour?

Image credit: Whisper

5. Apparently being a landlord is not all it’s cracked up to be

Good old fashioned bartering just isn’t appreciated like it used to be.

Image credit: Whisper

6. Then again…

I hope he’s knocking something off her rent at least.

Image credit: Whisper

7. Because some landlords only dream of that opportunity

When she’s cute, she’s cute, right?

Image credit: Whisper

8. And it could always be worse

Because who wouldn’t rather think about lubed pipes than clogged ones?

Image credit: Whisper

9. But what do you do when it’s just not working out?

I guess you better have a “get-rid-of-narcissist-free clause” in the contract next time.

Image credit: Whisper

10. Now this right here, this is the way to do it

Player knew what was up.

He probably never did any work during group projects either.

Image credit: Whisper

11. Honestly, some guys have all the luck

I mean, at that point do you start to worry that your rent is too high?

Can you at least list the place as “haunted” now?

Image credit: Whisper

12. Just remember that there’s a reason you do background checks

And always have an alibi, I guess.

Image credit: Whisper

The thing is, people are just generally weird. And the more people you have to interact with, well… the more weird experiences you’ll have.

What’s the most off-the-wall thing you or your landlord have ever done? Let us know in the comments.

Off-the-Wall Reasons People Were Fired from Their Jobs

Going to work every day can be soul-sucking

But we all have to pay the rent, so losing your job is typically worse.

And then there are jobs like these, where getting fired almost seems like a blessing in disguise.

Here are 11 absolutely out-there reasons that people were given for being let go.

1. Trying to do the right thing

I mean. I feel like this is one thing that should be protected by law.

Image credit: Whisper

2. Not being a team player

Look, if you’re not going to participate in team building activities…

Image credit: Whisper

3. How dare you do the job I hired you to do

That will teach you to go the extra mile.

Image credit: Whisper

4. You’re meant to be a robot

Grief should not compute.

Image credit: Whisper

5. Honesty is not the best policy

This is what we call oversharing. Then again, maybe a good way to find new participants.

Image credit: Whisper

6. Don’t worry, be happy

Especially don’t worry about losing your job, because if you do, you’ll lose your job.

Image credit:Whisper

7. Don’t look, don’t speak, don’t think

This one is just crazy unless you asked them WHERE they were sunburned…

Image credit: Whisper

8. Be the mannequin you want to see in the world

Don’t gain weight, lose weight, cut your hair, dye your hair. Stay exactly the same.

Image credit:Whisper

9. Be yourself

Unless your boss doesn’t like who you are. Then be someone else.

Image credit: Whisper

10. Above all, be on time

Zero tolerance. No exceptions. Not even for comas. Ouch.

Image credit: Whisper

11. Do your best!

As long as your best isn’t better than your boss’s best.

Image credit: Whisper

So many of these are just too much for me to even comprehend.

You have to wonder how a lot of them are legal.

What do you think? Do you have any crazy stories about getting fired? Tell us in the comments.

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.

Image credit: Whisper

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.
