23-year-old employee refuses to cover her 26-year-old coworker’s shifts until she repays the $800 she lent her 15 months ago: ‘I’ve covered at least 14 of her shifts this past year, and she has never covered for me.’
She’s only paid her back $100 of the $800 she «borrowed» over a year ago. When you lend money to somebody, your relationship totally changes. If you gift your children or grandchildren a down payment for a house that you never expect to get back, that’s totally different. But if you lend them that money …

When your friend has you over for a party, it’s expected that you bring over something as a thank you for them hosting.

Job interviews are a lot like dates…a lot of times, people are actively looking for a reason to reject someone instead of looking for reasons to stick with them.

Job interviewer asks job candidate his favorite drink, candidate says ‘water’ and refuses to elaborate: ‘C’mon, you can do better than that’

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.’
