We’ve all had that one older coworker who doesn’t know what is appropriate and inappropriate to talk about at work. They will say their inner thoughts, no matter how offensive and hostile, and other coworkers will let them get away with it because «They’re old» and «They don’t know any better.» In a perfect world, …

Factory employee rejects coworkers’ invitation to hang out after work 10+ times, gets angry when they stop inviting her to hang out: ‘You guys never invite me to anything. I’m always the one left out.’
We all have different levels of closeness with our friends. I have some friends that I see multiple times a week, others I see at least once a month, and a handful that I never really hang out with one-on-one. It’s perfectly normal to realize after a couple of times hanging out with somebody that …

Entitled coworker tattles on her coworker to HR for not inviting her to his wedding: ‘She filed a complaint saying I was being «exclusive» and «creating a hostile environment by leaving people out.»‘
You cannot assume that your coworkers are your friends. If you are a lonely person who doesn’t have that many friends, it can be tempting to constantly ask your coworkers to hang out with you outside of work. After all, you spend so much time together anyway. That must mean that you’re building a bond …

23-year-old forces her coworker to constantly cover her shifts because she has a boyfriend and he’s single: ‘I figured you’d be fine with it since you don’t have a girlfriend or kids to worry about.’
There’s nothing worse than a coworker who walks all over you and a manager who lets it happen. I don’t miss the time in my life when people would beg me to cover their shift and act like I was a bad person for not being able to do so. It’s challenging to plan your …

23-year-old refuses to participate in her company’s Christmas in July party because she doesn’t want to buy a gift for her 19-year-old coworker who she hates: ‘I just can’t justify spending money on her’
Secret Santas are fun if you’re doing them for people you want to hang out with, but they’re a pain if you have to do them for someone you have a transactional relationship with. I enjoyed participating in Secret Santa with my college friend group because we didn’t have enough money to get great gifts …

Mom refuses to continue driving her coworker home after she made her 20 minutes late for picking up her 7-year-old son from after school care: ‘The daycare charged me a $25 late fee’
If there’s one thing I hate, it’s tardiness. I’m not talking about someone being late once, but rather chronic lateness that persists without resolution. I know that every time I hang out with one friend that shall remain nameless, the train is not running 20 minutes behind, despite their claims. They chose to leave when …

New mom raises $2800 to take unpaid leave to care for her sick 3-month-old baby, coworker discovers she was actually planning on using the money to fund a Canadian vacation: ‘The baby’s totally fine, my mom can watch him’
It is easy to get scammed on GoFundMe if you are tender-hearted enough to give generously when possible. I’m not saying that every GoFundMe that someone starts under a viral tweet begging for survival funds is a lie, but scams like that rely on one of two things. You feel like a good person for …

Employee declines to donate to coworker’s fundraiser for their dog, the rest of the office ices them out: ‘Someone put up a donation tally in the break room, listing how much everyone contributed. My name was the only one missing’
Asking for money is an incredibly awkward ordeal. Odds are, if you’re asking for money, you’d rather not be. People usually only ask for donations and handouts if they really need them- they see no way forward with how things are going now, and they have no other choice but to turn to others. It’s …

Mean coworker uninvites new hire from colleague’s office wedding shower, gets angry when she tells the big boss: ‘She sent an e-mail out banning parties of any kind during work hours.’
Who doesn’t love a good office party? You get the chance to talk to that coworker you see every day but never work with, gorge yourself on free food, and anxiously contemplate on the drive home whether you were fun in a professional or unprofessional way. I don’t really trust offices that have office happy …

Employee complains that she doesn’t have a car to drive to and from work, assumes that her coworker will drive her home despite living in the opposite direction: ‘Some coworkers think I was inconsiderate’
One of my best friends is constantly getting ride offers. She lives in a less-than-walkable city with mediocre transit options, but she is lucky to live a 15-minute walk from her place of employment. She owns a car but would rather walk for 15 minutes than drive for 3 minutes every day. I’d venture to …
