I empathize with managers who struggle to get workers to cover shifts for their fellow employees. It’s so screwed up that they have to do their jobs and make sure that the business is functioning, and it’s super selfish for employees to get sick out of the blue without even asking management first!

Nosy Karen scolds tech-savvy coworker for using Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V: ‘She watches my every move in hopes of catching me make a mistake so she can tattle’

‘She said that I’m a bully’: Ignorant woman refuses to spell coworkers name correctly
What’s in a name? A lot, actually. Names are incredibly important, and when people mess with them, it feels like a personal affront.

Snitch Employee Tattles to HR Every Time Her Coworkers Say Something Not PC
Unlike many Redditors at r/antiwork, I believe HR exists for a good reason.
