Would you be friends with someone who talked through a movie? Talking through a movie is a huge sin if you ask me.

Manager Forces Employees to do a ‘Quiet Hour’ Where Nobody is Allowed to Speak, Schedules Meetings During The Quiet Hour
Rules for thee, but not for me. Every office has a different vibe when it comes to noise. In some offices, everyone is quiet all day long, gets their work done, and only talks when saying hi to their coworkers in the morning and bye to them in the afternoon. That is the kind of …

65-year-old clerk constantly talks all throughout the workday, interrupts coworker when she tries to get a word in: ‘She never calls off and never shuts up or stops complaining.’
She needs to leave her coworkers alone, but she never will. How much should you talk on the job? Some jobs are so boring that there’s nothing else to do but talk to your coworkers. If you’ve ever worked at a store or a frozen yogurt store that doesn’t get a lot of customers, having …

Stay-at-home mom refuses to take her 5-year-old son out of speech therapy because her husband thinks she can do it at home: ‘It’s costing us $700 a month.’
Can an untrained mom teach her kid how to say his «Rs» on her own? Where can you cut corners financially while raising a family?

Employee whispers all day long at his desk, having full-blown conversations with himself about things unrelated to work: ‘He was arguing with himself over his personal life or people he knew.’
This is almost as bad as having a whistler in the office. There’s nothing worse than having a coworker who is annoying in a way that you can’t quite call out without breaching professionalism. If you’re a higher-up, you have more leeway to tell your employees that they shouldn’t sing under their breath in the …

Job interviewer tells job interviewee to shut up after he spent 5 minutes explaining his background and interrupted the interviewer 7 times: ‘John, you really have to shut up and listen.’
In this situation, he really needed to be told to shut up. Unfortunately, we aren’t really taught how to interview for jobs in school. There are a lot of things that you’d think would be common sense not to do in job interviews, but people make the same mistakes over and over again. One of …

‘SHE IS NON-VERBAL, WHY ARE YOU LYING’: Daycare teacher audio records her 3-year-old student speaking to prove she’s not non-verbal, gets berated by the girl’s mom and aunt
So many parents don’t want their kids to grow up. They want them to stay in the easy baby stages of life so they don’t have to do the work of taking care of a more autonomous person. I’m not even talking about going from being a kid to a teenager. A lot of growth …

Snobby dad refuses to let 2-year-old talk to any other kids in the playground: ‘I don’t want you associating with them’
When it comes to what kind of childhood most parents desire for their kids, having friends is usually featured on that list.
