Coworker constantly comments on employees’ snack and beverage choices in the break room, cries when she tells her to knock it off: ‘Commenting on what others eat isn’t appropriate.’
Her coworker’s snack choices don’t affect her in the slightest. We all have coworkers with wacky behaviors we don’t quite understand, and that’s okay! As long as they aren’t hurting anybody, there’s no reason not to accept their quirks as just a part of their personality. However, everyone has a different definition of «hurting anybody.» …

Hotel manager fires employee for refusing to allow a 16-year-old employee to work 15 hours straight: ‘The 16-year-old had been working since 7 AM and from 3 PM to 11 PM the night before.’
Good for them for standing up for a vulnerable you’re worker. When you’re a teenager working your first job, you don’t always feel like you are in a position to say «no» to people in authority.

Manager schedules 17-year-old worker for 3-9 PM shifts Monday through Friday, despite her getting out of school at 2:30 PM: ‘I work 10:30 AM-7:00 PM on weekends.’
She’s way too overscheduled for a high school kid. If there’s one group that is easy to take advantage of in the workplace, it’s teenagers. Sure, there might be pesky child labor laws keeping bosses from treating them like late-19th-century factory workers, but the ethos of that era still often rings true. I remember the first …

A pizza place came crashing down after a disgruntled employee reported them to the city when they cut his hours for the 3rd time.

Lazy coworker brags about having free time at work on social media, hardworking coworker tattles to management: ‘We never have a slow MOMENT at work, let alone a slow day’
We’ve all had one of those coworkers who doesn’t do what they’re supposed to do.
