[caption id="attachment_4539" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Credit: Reddit / GeorgeRRHodor[/caption] Customers can be total jerks. It's no secret, especially if you've worked in retail. Many of us reading this, and likely many other humans working away this very minute, will find some solace in the fact that it's not just us. In the age of commerce and capitalism we live in, it is required and a key job descriptor to interact with fellow humans are coming to you or your compy to take part in the great money-game to purchase goods or services. It is the way. However, it isn't that simple. It is indeed the way, but it also not the whole way. Still with me? Customers are often not the most socially enlightened when it comes to etiquette and often behave in manners uncouth and down-right wrong towards waiters, bartenders, retail workers and many, many more. Sometimes though, people behave in such a way that some form of retaliation is inevitable and most of the time, it's very amusing. Case in point... [post_page_title]#1 Pet Supply Store Gets Real[/post_page_title] Pets are such a part of contemporary life that getting the kids used to furry little friends ahead of purchasing one is safe-bet. Most of the time that is... [caption id="attachment_4541" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Credit: Reddit / s1s2g3a4[/caption] It is until those who really should act with a little more civility and maturity ruin it for the rest of us.

[post_page_title]#2 This Woman Who Stole The Shop Cat From A Local Flower Shop[/post_page_title] Stealing is universally considered to be wrong regardless of whatever the item is. That said, there are definitely some examples where the act of fiver-finger discount is taken way further than what is already bad enough.

[post_page_title]#3 Risque But An Effective Shaming Tool[/post_page_title] Ah, alcohol. I've was a bar manager until recently, and the things I've had to tell people to stop doing in the places I've worked would shock you and so, it is with that in mind that I give this excellent entry on this list.

Customers can be total jerks. It's no secret, especially if you've worked in retail.

In all honesty, I had to stare at this one for far more than I would have liked, simply take it all in before pondering (again, for far too long), HOW this has even happened?! [caption id="attachment_4575" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Credit: Reddit / yourmomak[/caption] Once I had ascertained that this indeed WASN'T baguette or parsnip and settled on the reality of its phallic nature, it only served to propagate more and more questions. I've seen some things in my time working behind bars and in restaurants, but this list has been an interesting read. Don't be like these people.

I don't know about you, but I can always tell when someone's a new mom. The seemingly otherworldly influx of wisdom of knowledge, the tired rings around their eyes, the baby in their arms... it's not always easy to tell, but I'm getting better at it. Soon, I'll be a master at it.

Unless I've had a contraception nightmare, it's probably going to be a very long time before I get to be a parent, but luckily (?), I can hear about what it's like to be a parent at any time by logging onto social media and scrolling for a good couple of minutes. From then on, it's only a matter of time before I see a baby photo, or someone complaining about how hard it is to be a parent.

This isn't to say that parenting isn't hard.

Raising a child one of the hardest things we'll ever do as human beings, but what probably doesn't help is being a mother or father in the internet age. Provided you can stay strong in the face of shaming and/or judgement, there's the very real threat of your newfound status as caregiver going to your head, causing you to say some pretty ridiculous things in the process for the entire internet to see.

Case in point, this lady who posted that she deserved to cut lines at a coffeeshop because she was a mother. Yeah, she was probably tired from having to take care of a baby or whatever, but her photo and sassy sign masquerading as hot take did not go down well on Twitter. Not one bit.

"Moms should get a fast pass to the front of the line at coffee shops. Honey, you're 22 & slept 10 hours last night? Get to the back of the line," says the picture in question, on a sign for extra obnoxiousness. Who's the mother, here? Nobody's quite sure, but the account @SlutWhisperer picked it up, and posted it to its million-strong following.

From there, only one thing was going to happen. It's one thing having a snappy, yet poorly-thought-out opinion (what is social media if not a vehicle for expressing your snappy, yet poorly-thought-out opinions?), but by taking down this opinion savagely on social media by way of straw man argument, are we really any better?

Who knows. Let's get into the savagery, shall we? First off, this doozy from @SlutWhisperer themselves. Expressed in all-caps, no less.

Twitter wasn't far behind, as you've come to expect, and people had jokes for this lady who thinks that mothers should get to be at the front of coffee shop line. None of them complimentary.

I could go on, folks, but I feel like you get the point. I'm sure that wherever this mom is, she wanted to post a photo that would go viral. I don't think, however, that this is what she had in mind.

In a world where there are still millions of people around the world without secure access to food, I think it's really easy to take the idea of a restaurant for granted.

Once in a while (or whenever you can afford it and you're too lazy to cook), you can head out to many an establishment and have somebody cook for you. Whether you're craving some seafood or hungry for a burger, your food whims can be satisfied in an instant; your only job is to ensure that you pay the adequate cash to those doing the work for your hunger. Simple, really.

It's kind of sad, then, that some people fail to see the need to do that last bit properly; viewing restaurant workers working for (sometimes less than) minimum wage as being somehow unworthy of tips, stiffing them in all sorts of unsavoury ways. One such couple - who probably thought they were being super clever by doing this - have caught significant heat online for their pretty awful tipping method.

One thing you should attempt to remember about your restaurant server - that this couple clearly forgot - is that they're human. They're working long and stressful hours for little pay, and as such, they're probably prone to occasionally making a mistake. One thing you should definitely not do is attempt to leverage good service by threatening to remove their tip. That would be bad.

But it's exactly what one Facebook user did, boasting on social media that this trick employed by himself and his wife is imperative to getting "the best service of your life". Though the post has since been deleted, we've got a pretty good idea of how he tormented one poor waitress for her tip (which she needs to, you know, survive).

So, as this restaurant patron describes it, you start with five one-dollar bills (let's not get too crazy here) on the table, in clear view of the person serving you. “Don’t say anything to them,” he writes, before going on to explain how this all works. "If they mess up, you take a dollar away and so on. At the end of the dinner, however much is left, is their tip."

According to the Facebook user, the waitress did forget to bring the table bread (which did cost her a dollar), but made up for it by bringing along extra bread later, scoring herself the full tip! Okay, let's be honest; this is awful, and Atlanta-based news, weather, and traffic host (not to mention former restaurant waiter) Mark Arum summed up the mood in a single tweet.

Unsurprisingly, the rest of Twitter wasn't far behind, with some disparaging remarks. "I served for years putting myself through college," tweeted one user by the name of Randall W. Bond. "I would have ignored you most of the night for the satisfaction of letting you know your condescending $5 means absolutely nothing to me while i racked up $10-$20 tips from people that can actually afford to go out to eat."

Randall's wasn't the only angry response. Not by a long shot. "What a weird new way to be cheap and rude simultaneously," quipped one, while another added: "I agree. Why do some people treat servers like they are training an animal? If they do good then you give them a treat, if they mess up you rub their nose in it. Smh."

"Millenials [sic] are so disrespectful! Anyway, honey, let's make our less-than-minimum-wage server dance on eggshells for a $5 tip on our $80 dinner," joked a third, pretty much hitting the nail on the head here. If you can tell a lot about a person by how they treat waiters, then maybe this Facebook user and his wife should be given a very wide berth.

If you've dreamed about quitting your job on the spot - without bothering with a notice period or a formal resignation letter - then join the club!

Unfortunately, absolutely hating your job is something that we all go through. You may hate everything about the job or just certain aspects - but eventually, you get to the point where enough is enough.

But while many of us would love to quit abruptly, give our boss a piece of our mind and then not turn up for work ever again - unfortunately, it's not really feasible for the average Joe.

But one woman was brave enough to share a briefly-written note with her boss, telling him she wouldn't be turning up for work ever again, citing the boss' supposed "rudeness" as the reason.

The woman, who quit her job at a Target store in the US, shared the note to Reddit, with the caption: "the note I left on my TL desk after my shift" alongside a relieved emoji.

It read: "Hey Jordan! Just wanted to let you know that I will not be returning to work tomorrow or next week! Thx hun! – M."

The note continued: "P.S. I will never understand why you were so rude to me!"

And she ended the note with a drawing of an (ironic) smiley face.

The response the woman got was divisive, with some praising her and others telling her it was the wrong thing to do.

One person told her: "Good job! I walked out of my job at Target too. I was the only one working in the food corner (before they all turned into a starbucks) and they would just f**king leave me there, even when I would be paging for help. I hated that job.

"And I always smelled like popcorn."

However, others felt the action was only "burnt bridges" for the former Target employee.

One wrote: "Y’all may laugh and cheer on how to leave a job- but trust me, once you step foot out of retail and into a more professional career, you’ll see what we’re saying about burning bridges and about how to leave a job."
