                                                                        Remote work has allowed many individuals in the workforce to save time that would have been spent traveling to work, on other things. However, remote work isn't always an option for customer service employees. Customer-facing roles are necessary, though, and most of the employees in this line of work are amazing at what they do… even if their bosses don't always recognize that.

                                                                        But things happen, right? Freak snow storms in February aren't out of the ordinary (so long as you're not living in South Florida).  When you decide to tough it out and journey out to your workplace despite the bad weather, you're already showing another ounce of dedication another employee wouldn't have. So, when you get stuck on the side of the road because of the snow, you hope your boss will be understanding. You even make it to work after waiting for roadside assistance, just to be scolded… and be told you were followed. The employee in this story is at a loss for words. Scroll to read.

                                                                        Woman has different upbringing than much younger sister, tells sister when she's old enough that she had no choice but to move out, mom gets mad: 'I don’t resent her for it, but it does make it hard for her to understand my perspective sometimes'

                                                                        Growing up with siblings gives you a unique perspective on fairness. If you and your sibling are very different people, you're going to bear witness to some very different parenting styles. Often, older siblings are subjected to rules and regulations, while younger siblings get much more leniency. Older siblings can have more pressure to perform, to carry out the family's legacy, and to live up to the family name. Sometimes, it can be frustrating to watch your sibling receive gifts and privileges that you were never awarded as a kid. Especially if you are far apart in age, you may have had a completely different upbringing entirely than your sibling. This can sometimes lead to resentment and hurt, but, for the most part, it's just the way the cookie crumbles.

                                                                        One woman experienced this divide in parenting with her sister, who is ten years younger than her. This woman grew up with a lot fewer privileges than her sister and was expected to move out when she was 18 and put her way through school. When her sister asked her why she moved out so soon, this woman told her the truth, which caused her mother to accuse her of guilting her sister. Read on to see how it all plays out.

                                                                        20+ Resume mistakes that left hiring managers laughing: 'He said a video game was his experience'

                                                                        Resume writing is a true skill, and it's one that most people don't naturally have. Bragging about yourself and your work accomplishments can feel intimidating, not to mention the imposter syndrome you may feel as you list your achievements. It's a tough balance. You want to reflect your work experience in the most flattering way possible, while also avoiding stretching the truth into a lie. 

                                                                        I think a lot of hiring managers are skilled at reading in between the lines when it comes to interviewing. Like if you claim you "managed an office," but the only duties you can talk about are turning the lights on in the morning and answering a few emails for the boss, they might think you're stretching the truth. There are all sorts of ways to spin your job title into something cool, or exaggerate your qualifications to match the job description, but at the end of the day, you've got to prove you're actually capable. 

                                                                        Check out a few of the absolute funniest and worst resumes that hiring managers have ever laid eyes on.

This coworker seems to come from a backwards universe where it's perfectly ok to disrespect an employee's name and where humor at a fellow coworker's expense is justified if it's funny. Of course, the joke wasn't worth it professionally, and it wasn't even funny. 

                                                                        At the end of the day, people with a sense of humor that is founded on name-calling should, frankly, lose the privilege to make jokes. Keep scrolling below to see how this new hire got HR involved in her workplace feud!

Folks who wouldn't care about a certain dish if it cost $5 will suddenly jump through hoops to get that same food if it's free. Restaurants know this, and some will have a day or two each year when their food is free. 

                                                                        This happens at many establishments on National Donut Day, which is celebrated in June. Some places offer a free donut, while others generously offer customers a free dozen. It sounds too good to be true! That's because it is. Sure, you can have a free donut. But you might have to wait in line for a few hours for it. You may need to wait in your car, costing you precious fuel money. Or you and your pals might spend time waiting around in a long line, only to discover that the restaurant is sold out by the time you get to the front. 

                                                                        These teens had a wild experience with another customer who was too impatient to wait in line. It's a mystery why she thought she was entitled to cut the line! Check out the full tale below.

                                                                        As with most HOA stories, this one involves an unnecessary fee, a miscommunication, and an ever so slightly rebellious resident who was not going to take it anymore. Coming across these vile HOA debacles, as someone who has thankfully never resided in an HOA neighborhood, can only instill fear in younger folks who hope to purchase their own homes one day… only, let's be honest, that day is unlikely to transpire.

Companies love to convince you they're doing you a favor by employing you, right up until you request something minor, like adjusting your schedule to, say, get some education—and suddenly you're branded a traitor. 

                                                                        It's a classic really - employers dangle flexibility like a carrot in front of us working donkeys, then hook it away the moment we blink. Policies become as flexible as a software license agreement, bending to whatever excuse management needs to mask their hypocrisy. Full-time gets redefined like a bad Wikipedia edit, benefits vanish into the Bermuda Triangle of HR, and your only remaining job is to mansplain your role to three replacements via PowerPoint.

                                                                        Take one nursing student who dared ask to work 30 hours instead of 32—a change her company's handbook called full-time. Instead of a gold star, she got a participation trophy in the form of termination papers and a side hustle scripting manuals for her cheaper clones.

                                                                        We've all dreamed of quitting our jobs on the spot and walking out at one point or another—surely. Whether it was your boss telling you what to do or handling one too many impolite customers, we've all been a hair's width away from "crashing out" and packing it in. The fantasy alone is cathartic, and almost enough to get you through many a harrowing workplace experience. But the reality is that reality keeps most of us from acting it out. And, so for the sake of our rent or mortgage and supporting our family we toil on and endure.

                                                                        But, still, it's a fantasy that persists. You can't help but sink back into that daydream any time your boss is micromanaging you or you see more signs of a once-good workplace culture eroding. 

                                                                        These workers all shared their experiences that drove them to finally turn this dream into reality. There's a whole lot of bad bosses, revoked leave, broken promises, and truly toxic workplace experiences in these stories.

                                                                        For all of the money and resources they have, a lot of wealthy people are actually super cheap. They'll spend hundreds of thousands on a brand new car, but then refuse to tip the valet. They'll drop a few thousand bucks on some new shoes, then go to a coffee shop next door and freak out because their latte costs 50 cents more than it used to. A lot of rich people defend this kind of behavior by saying that they try to be wise with their money… but it rings hollow when they waste money constantly. 

                                                                        Just take this family, for example. They were flying out on their vacation in first-class seats, which usually cost several thousand dollars at minimum. They should've spent that money on a personal chef, instead. The mom of the family just had hand surgery, which is an important reason to avoid cooking. If there was ever the perfect opportunity to treat themselves to luxurious meals 3 times a day for their whole vacation, that's a fantastic reason!

                                                                        But no. Instead, this family invited along their college-age daughter and her roommate. The women were psyched for the vacation at first. But the family had them then make all the meals, cooking for 9 people (!) when these women just don't have the skills or resources to do that. That sounds like it could take hours every day! The parents could've saved themselves a lot of hassle, but instead, the college-roommate turned vacation buddy turned chef fled the scene. 

                                                                        Next, read about the job interviews that couldn't possibly have gone worse for the job candidate, like one person whose answer to every single question was, "I don't know."

They spend way too much money on random stuff, much more than they earn, they keep going out and planning these luxury vacations, and they make it seem like their bank account is actually a bottomless well.

                                                                        History shows, that once these people inevitably do reach the bottom of their financial well, they do not handle it so gracefully. As soon as they realize that their luxurious lifestyle is in jeopardy, they would do anything to keep it, even if the only thing that makes sense is to let it go.

                                                                        So what do they do instead? They turn to us, their faithful friends, and start asking for favors, usually favors in the shape of dollar bills. Wise people would quickly understand that they are much better off not getting involved, while others sympathize a little too much, and end up making decisions they are soon to regret.

                                                                        As the clock ticks by and the big numbers become small numbers, the revenge plans become more and more diabolical. And I don't blame you for thinking greedily about your ZZZ's. Sleep is potentially the most rejuvenating and delightful part of vacation, so if you're stuck tucking pillows around your head and wishing you'd brought better ear plugs on your restful vacation, the mind can easily wander into vengeance territory. Perhaps someone else's sleep is about to be disrupted when they want it most!

                                                                        Keep scrolling for some of the best ways to get back at loud and entitled neighbors. Because when you fight fire with fire, the last noisy competitor standing is the winner…

This should be inherently understood for a plethora of reasons. First and foremost, a customer would not want their time disrespected in the same way. "An eye for an eye," as they say. Secondly, how can one expect quality service when it's crystal clear that the employee is in a rush and is unable to perform said tasks to the best of their ability as they are in a hurry?

                                                                        Unfortunately, there are still far too many reprehensible individuals who continue to think the world revolves around them despite plenty of evidence to the contrary. These folks deserve to be awakened like Keanu Reeves in The Matrix, and while I wish overworked employees did not have to interact with said individuals, sometimes it's up to them to pull these folks out of their "main character" worldviews.

                                                                        The RTO floodgates have been opened, and office workers everywhere are livid about it. Remote work is great because it is convenient, but even more so, it's amazing because you don't have to share a workspace with unreasonable, obnoxious people. You might think that because your coworkers are great, most people's coworkers are also great. Such is not the case in most circumstances. Though manners are the golden standard, they are unfortunately not virtuous.

                                                                         For some reason, folks think it's completely fine to clip their (toe)nails in open-concept offices and pop bubble wrap because they "need" to. Or, folks listening to political podcasts (which is definitely against some company code) out loud for everyone in a five-cubicle radius to hear. Working in an office makes you wonder about who raised these adult toddlers and if you have some unreasonable quirk you're not noticing. Whatever quirk that might be, it's probably not as annoying as the ones you're about to read below.

                                                                        Entitled 11-year-old coworker’s daughter keeps stealing from everyone at work, including makeup from hidden bags, while her mother does nothing, forcing 23-year-old employee to look for creative solutions

                                                                        Office life comes with its share of annoyances: that one person who microwaves fish, the colleague who tells the same story daily, and the printer that works exclusively through prayer. But nothing quite compares to the special torment of dealing with an entitled child using the workplace as their personal playground while their parent watches with the observational skills of a brick wall. 

                                                                        It's a uniquely torturous situation where professional adults suddenly find themselves playing unwilling, and unpaid babysitters, forced to protect their belongings like they're guarding the crown jewels from a tiny, runny-nosed, sticky-fingered bandit. Everyone has to tiptoe around the (t)issue because confronting a parent about their precious angel's behavior is about as pleasant as getting a root canal while listening to the same kid practice the bagpipe. 

                                                                        The workplace transforms into a bizarre combination of daycare and maximum security facility, with employees hiding their possessions and developing elaborate systems to protect their lunch from becoming another casualty of a child's communist philosophy.

                                                                        Mother of 3-year-olds twins refuses to parent them during 5-hour flight: 'The couple next to me moved'

                                                                        What is it about travel that brings out the worst in people? Is it the stress of getting to your flight on time while carrying your heavy luggage? By the time you get to your gate, you're already cranky and hungry, so then you have to pay a small fortune to eat awful airport food. For the parents who are traveling with children, their kids are going to start asking to go to the bathroom, whining about wanting to go home, telling them they're bored, and running laps around the gate. Some kids will start crying and carrying on before they've even set foot on the aircraft! By the time their flight gets delayed once or twice, and they board as slowly as humanly possible, those kids are crawling up the walls. Bringing something to occupy them during the flight is starting to sound like a good idea!

                                                                        The process of letting someone go at a company is only made simple when that employee has done something egregiously wrong. Otherwise, managers are often left grasping at straws and forced to cough up silly reasons for why so-and-so is expendable. More often than not, it wasn't even your manager's decision. They were probably forced to do someone else's dirty work in order to maintain their own job security. In short, it's a vicious cycle, and there is a reason why firing someone can weigh on the psyche.

                                                                        Of course, at the end of the day, the person who is hit hardest is the one who's getting let go. Tell that to this boss, who chickened out so much that he could only do the firing from behind the keyboard of his phone…

Employees come and go like a revolving door, leaving managers with a crew that constantly needs training. A lot of retail employees also just do not care about their jobs, and why would they? They're stuck making minimum wage and working with the crankiest customers imaginable. Still, some workers make laziness into an art form. They take as long as possible to do even the simplest task. They refuse to greet customers and can't figure out how to run the cash register. They always have time to lean, and never have a spare moment to clean. This leaves their managers extremely annoyed, and it can slow down the operation of the whole retail establishment. But if they don't have firing power, there's not really much these bosses can do to get their employees in line. 

                                                                        Next, this "boy mom" demanded that her pregnant daughter-in-law quit her job, leaving the DIL to say: "As soon as she found out we were having a baby, she sunk her claws in."

                                                                        Ah yes, the city of dreams. If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere! But, seriously, if you don't come from some sort of privilege and you decide to move to NYC tomorrow, it would be very very difficult for you. I moved here many years ago when rent was closer to $700, but now… Pffffffft, fahgettaboutit! Seriously, I was already struggling as a person trying to make it on their own even with that "cheap" rent. (I know, someone who isn't a nepo-baby moved to NYC, impossible!) Even that being said, I still had more privileged than many others who try to move here—I had a college education and friends/family who always knew someone who knew someone in NYC that could help me out with some weird under the table gig to help me make rent. So, though I survived off of a can of peanut butter for months and the free cheese puffs at the bars, I was still cruising. But now, I fully believe if I had moved to NYC today in the same way, I would not be able to afford rent. Unless I lived in a questionably legal artist complex deep in Brownsville, that has like 5 people to a room, I would definitely fail. 

                                                                         

                                                                        Rent has always been a contentious point for New Yorkers—the landlords and brokers want more money and the renters just want to be able to afford an actual functioning roof over their heads while they try to chase their dreams. And don't even get me started on the children of the wealthy parents coming in and not caring for either side…

                                                                        Artist exposes "influencer" demanded the artist pay her for the privilege of working for her

                                                                        Wanting something for nothing, but being choosy about how you're going to receive that something, regardless—even going as far as to complain about that thing that you have been given. This is a classic description of "choosing beggars" who we've classically derided online for their entitled behavior. Typically, you will see this type of behavior from influencers who are looking for free services in exchange for "exposure" or any other entitled people who think that they deserve something more than paying clientele. 

                                                                        This artist was unwilling to tolerate such behavior from a family friend and "influencer" who saw the work she had done for a mutual friend and decided that she wanted a painting herself. Whereas the mutual friend had paid for the painting, this "influencer" friend wanted it for free in exchange for "advertising" the painting on her Instagram to her "fans." 

                                                                        46-year-old couch-surfer eats his sister-in-law's food, she demands $40 payment immediately: 'They're bad-mouthing you in your own house'

                                                                        People who let other people live in their homes long-term and rent-free are actual saints. Instead of having privacy in your home, when you let your relatives move in, you're going to be spending a lot of time together. Instead of coming home from work and relaxing in silence, you now have to get back and cook a big meal for the guests or watch TV with three other people. 

                                                                        This person already has a husband and 3 kids she's caring for, so opening her home to her sister's family was a kind and generous move. But her sister's husband is acting completely out of pocket. The families keep disagreeing over food. After all, if you're stuck in someone else's home for the foreseeable future, maybe you sneak a few chips or a granola bar from their pantry. Who's going to know, right? 

                                                                        The pair of sisters are feuding over food, and if they're not careful, it'll impact their relationship forever. It seems like this woman is at her breaking point, and is about to kick her sister's family out for good. If not, though, it'd be good for her to set some strong boundaries. It's her house, and if the sister's family can't respect it, they can find someone else's couch to crash on. 

                                                                        Next, read about these workers who were handed company credit cards and used them for fun, ill-advised personal purchases: "I caught a guy trying to buy a $30k boat."

                                                                        There are plenty of competitive fields out there in which it is totally understandable why employees can't work for two rival companies at the same time. A lawyer, for example, absolutely cannot work for two law firms at the same time, because they surely have cases in which they represent different sides, and that can lead to quite a mess in the courtroom.

                                                                        That is why many companies make a point to contractually forbid their employees from working a second job in the same field, and we can all agree that is acceptable.

                                                                        However, some fields have no business doing that, because their field is not competitive whatsoever, so it does not require any form of secrecy. Teachers, for example, constantly work for more than one school, as there is no "rivalry" between the schools, and so there is no reason why they shouldn't teach (and earn money) as much as they can.

                                                                        Bus drivers, should also be allowed to work for multiple bus companies, as long as their schedule allows it. Or so we thought until we read the story down below.

                                                                        Beloved old couple moves out and loud obnoxious gearhead moves in, neighbor gives him a dose of his own bad-neighbor medicine: ‘I took a gamble… It was the right call!'

                                                                        It's really not that hard to be a good neighbor. You know what you have to do? Have some empathy and realize that you are sharing not just a block, fence, or even wall with someone, you are also sharing a safe space. That's right, being a neighbor means being respectful of other people's homes and expecting them to do the same for you. If you want to be a really really great neighbor, then you're transforming into freindships territory and that is beautiful. But we are talking about just being a good neighbor. That doesn't mean you have to come trim their hedges every week for free or even follow them on social media. It just means to be aware of how your actions might affect the people also living around you. 

                                                                         

                                                                        Too often, however, you find a neighbor who is just unneighborly. An entitled neighbor how thinks he deserves to do whatever he wants in and around his home, even if it is bothering others. That's usually when an HOA is supposed to come in handy, so keep those bad neighbors in line and maintain the comfortable living space. But too the HOA is even worse, but that's a different story…

An important learning lesson in anyone's childhood is to accept the fact that some people do not enjoy spending time together, but as long as everyone is treated with respect, there should be no harm, no foul. That being said, if someone begins to test that mutual respect, you cannot let people walk all over you. Unfortunately, that would be a life lesson that many adults still have yet to learn.

                                                                        Here, we have more than just a disrespectful kid who lives down the road. This kid's way of showing disrespect was a bizarre entitlement to other people's belongings. In short, she quickly became the neighborhood thief, and she needed to be stopped.

                                                                        Resident lurks at neighbors' front doors to see when they get packages delivered, then uses them as an excuse to ask for money: 'I didn't want anyone to steal your package, anyway do you have $20 I could borrow?'

We've all found ourselves short of something while cooking, or in need of a tool we never considered buying, and turned to our neighbors for help. Even if you don't consider your neighbors as your friends, you can still have a civil relationship with them, and help each other out from time to time.

                                                                        That being said, every good thing has a limit, and when it comes to said neighbors, you don't want to reach that limit too fast. If you knock on their door every few months, maybe even weeks, and ask for small things at a time, that is acceptable. But if you overdo it, and ask them for favors non-stop, or even go as far as plotting your requests, well, that is when things might get tense, and most likely uncomfortable. 

                                                                        The resident in the story below is definitely making their neighbors uncomfortable with their repeated requests to borrow money. Especially as this resident is not only knocking on doors to ask for the money, they do something much worse…

And I think… rocks have become the new plants. Anyways, our furry friends are getting much cushier treatment now than in the bad old days, and we all know they're good for it. There's nothing better than snuggling up with your pup after a long day or getting outside in the morning to play around carefree before the humdrum kicks in. 

                                                                        With dogs reaching child status these days, it does come with more responsibility. And in the event that you and a partner who shares a dog together decide to split, then there could be a custody battle on your hands. That's what happened to one woman when her boyfriend left his dog in her care after they broke up. After five months of caring and loving the dog, this woman had a hard time figuring out what to do when her ex came crawling back asking for the pooch. They say a dog is man's best friend. But in this case, a dog may be a woman's best friend, too.

This man's coworker didn't realize the importance of separation of church and state when it comes to the workplace and vacation time. Although they were happily enjoying their time away from the store, this retail worker just couldn't function without them…

                                                                        One of my first jobs was in retail, tagging T-shirts, folding jeans, and watching the clock tick down until my shift was over. Anyone who's ever worked in retail can attest that it's the sort of environment that takes the soul right out of you, one that begs to be left behind for greener pastures. So when this retail worker decided to take a well-deserved vacation to clear his mind of work follies and workplace drama, he expected to feel free of the shackles of the timecards, the repetitive Pandora station, and his coworker's neediness. However, with his personal cell number distributed around the sales floor, it was going to be hard to catch a break. 

                                                                        Read on for the snarky fallout when this worker draws the line, protecting their work/life balance with a dash of salt and a whole lot of sass.

You get on, ride to your destination, and barely register that you've been on board. But other days will make you regret ever setting foot on public transportation. From irritating people to delays to messy seats and floors, there are plenty of ways that a regular commute can become mildly infuriating

                                                                        Recently, I was on the train in the early morning hour of 9:30 AM, heading to my job here, when I entered a nearly empty train car. A three-man band entered with me, bringing guitars and an accordion along with them. I thought, "They wouldn't play to just like four people in a subway car, right?" Wrong! Very wrong! Instead, the band began to play at top volume, echoing in the empty car. It was so loud and startling, and extremely unpleasant, since most of us on the train car looked half-asleep still! I know they're just busking, hoping for a few extra dollars, but I really don't think the two train riders who were jolted out of their sleep by the accordion appreciated their musical talents enough to tip them. That's just one thing that might befall you when you step foot onto public transportation, and the people below have their own mildly infuriating moments to share with us. 

                                                                        After that, read about this poor 16-year-old who's already burnt out from working too hard, saying, "I quit my job and I told my parents I won't work again until I'm out of their house." 

                                                                        19-year-old inherits $8 million from estranged grandpa, entitled family members sue her: 'The money doesn't belong to [her]'

                                                                        There's nothing like money to tear a family apart. Of course, we'd like to believe that there is no force stronger than that of the bond between loved ones, but the truth of the matter is that there is a stronger force and that, whether we like it or not, is the desire for more money.

                                                                        In this instance, we have a 19-year-old young woman who wasn't even that close to her grandfather, but clearly, he liked her enough to give all $8 million of his inheritance solely to her, leaving all the other family members (including the grandfather's own children) with nothing. We can guess where this is going…

                                                                        Hiring and firing don't always seem fair. We all know one coworker who simply cannot do anything right, yet has been with the company for like, eight years straight. They can make mistake after mistake without ever seeming to suffer the consequences of their actions. So long as that employee is the CEO's bestie or the secretary's son, that person is all but guaranteed to stay employed for a long while. 

                                                                        There's definitely a monetary limit to making mistakes while on the clock. This also differs from company to company. At one place, an employee might be fired for snapping at a customer, while at another, a worker would need to make a mistake costing thousands before their job is at stake. 

                                                                        These people shared the things that got them fired, like one welder who completely ruined a $65,000 door! This person admits that they just weren't very good at welding. By the time their boss showed them that expensive door mistake, this worker already knew they were a goner. Their boss did at least give them a nice chunk of change on their way out the door, which is much nicer than most of the people here who were just let go immediately. 

                                                                        Up next, read about some employees who went nuts with the company credit card, like one person who "caught a guy trying to buy a $30k boat."

Of course, employees should help one another out if they need help fulfilling tasks and responsibilities, within reason. Additionally, since you're bound to see each other day in and day out, there will be instances in which you can support one another outside of one's work responsibilities. However, things can get tricky when it comes to money…

                                                                        Obviously, coworkers often grab coffee or lunch for one another. Sometimes, there is no need to pay one another back, but depending on the sizr of the purchase, sometimes, there is that expectation. Here, we have a nurse whose distant childhood connection with a coworker meant she was easily manipulated into lending her far too much money…

                                                                        There's something almost impressive about how some companies have turned lying into an art form. Job interviews are now elaborate performances, where every promise about hours, pay, and stability is just bait dangling on a hook. "Full-time with benefits" actually means "barely part-time with existential dread," and "growth opportunities" translates to "you'll grow your capacity to endure nonsense."

                                                                        Corporate culture thrives on this kind of deception. It starts with the job listings, where buzzwords like "competitive" and "flexible" are sprinkled on like glitter, disguising the fact that the job may offer neither. The interview only takes the fantasy further. You'll be told exactly what you want to hear—plenty of hours, a supportive team, maybe even the possibility of moving up the ladder. What's left out is the fine print isn't important, just inconsistent schedules, constant over-hiring, and maybe fewer hours than it takes to sustain basic human life.

                                                                        Couple sues "mommy influencer" after she secretly films them and posts the video online: 'Our faces are clearly visible in the videos I might add'

                                                                        We live in a world where people feel entitled to film everything and anything going on around them and post it online. The reality is that there are some things that you don't need to share with the world and, further, thingsthat you shouldn't post about others.

                                                                        Something about this post reminded me of something in a documentary I was watching last night on Netflix about a recent high-profile missing persons case. Throughout parts of the case, they were showing how "influencers" were farming views by posting video evidence they had relevant, rather than sending it to the authorities, just jeopardizing the investigation. Really just makes you wonder what we have come to as a society, farming clout rather than doing the right thing for the sake of doing the right thing.

                                                                        25+ Interviews that could not have gone worse for the job candidate: 'Every answer was "I don't know"'

                                                                        Some job candidates don't actually want the jobs they're interviewing for, and they tend to make that clear to the interviewer. Maybe they need to prove they're interviewing so that they can collect an unemployment paycheck, or perhaps they're happy with their life as is, and a full-time job would cramp their style. One woman showed up to an interview and just lamented about how she hated working 5 days per week. Girl, we all do! No one wants to spend all that time toiling away at a job, but it's a necessary evil. This woman acted like it was a huge burden to be asked to work full time, but this is a problem she was causing on her own volition (you know, by interviewing for said full-time job). 

                                                                        Other people showed up under-dressed, or they were just totally wrong for the line of work they were applying for. You can't do a worse job than the person who was applying for a communications job, and revealed that their biggest weakness was… you guessed it, communication! Come on, man. Please just try a little bit. 

                                                                        After that, check out these delivery dilemmas that left people irritated, like one person who shared that their "Delivery driver sent me a photo of my parcel mid-air… he frisbee'd it." 

                                                                        Condescending coworker insults “uneducated” colleagues, says they deserve less pay despite needing constant help with basic tasks: ‘She’s very loud and vocal about her opinions, and can be very abrasive in her treatment of others’

                                                                        The modern workplace is a fascinating laboratory of human behavior, where self-awareness goes to perish and delusions of importance flourish like mold in a forgotten break room sandwich. Nothing showcases this better than valedictorian coworkers holding a bachelor of darts degree who mistake their education for actual competence, and everyone in their surroundings as walking dartboards ready to be pierced. Know wha I mean, mate?

                                                                        These scholarly aristocrats float through offices, spreading their special brand of condescension like pints at a pub. They've mastered the art of saying "no offense" right before saying something explicitly offensive, believing that this verbal get-out-of-jail-free card somehow masks their thinly veiled contempt for the degree-less peasants around them.

                                                                        Consider our latest specimen: a master's degree candidate who's taken it upon herself to conduct an unofficial payroll audit, complete with helpful commentary about her colleagues' educational status. She's perfected the art of diploma-tic insults, telling coworkers they're "uneducated" while struggling to compose basic workplace documents herself. The irony is thick enough to spread on toast.

                                                                        Executive orders fired employee to keep working, running errands and monitoring emails without pay, threatens their career when they refuse: ‘now, after being fired I’m supposed to be a team player?’

They somehow interpret a layoff as more of a casual suggestion than an actual termination, treating terminated employees like personal assistants who just happened to stop getting paid. These are the same people who believe budget cuts mean unlimited access to your time and energy, just without the pesky obligation of compensation. The audacity of expecting you to maintain the same level of dedication after showing you the door is pretty spectacular.

                                                                        These bosses live in a parallel universe where personal errands are somehow crucial business tasks, where being laid off means you should be even more eager to please, and where saying no makes you ungrateful rather than, you know, unemployed. They hold future recommendations like weapons and throw around terms like team spirit as if loyalty should survive termination. The nerve of expecting someone to remain your personal errand runner after firing them would be hilarious if it weren't so infuriating.

There is a reason why the professional and social norms of a workplace environment are different from those of an educational one. Fully grown employees are not in primary school anymore, and their parents do not need to be notified when they misbehave. 

                                                                        Furthermore, quitting is not misbehaving. Advocating for one's professional future and taking active steps to achieve one's career goals do not warrant punishment, especially from the parents of an independent adult.

                                                                        When you've been at your job long enough, it becomes easier to stand your ground in front of your bosses. When you finally get to the point in which you proved your worth and can see just how much the company will suffer without you, that allows you more space to negotiate your position.

                                                                        Setting aside the obvious options, like asking for a raise or a promotion, being a valuable asset to the company also means you can start saying 'no' to things. If at first, you agreed to anything that was thrown your way, simply so that your boss would be happy with you, once you've done your time, you can start setting up some much-needed boundaries to ensure you are not doing anything you are not supposed to, or that is beneath your pay grade.

                                                                        The consequences of standing your ground in this matter can vary, but since you know your worth, you can rest assured that you will not get fired. It's actually more likely that the company would try to accommodate you even more if they knew something happened to displease you.

                                                                        This guy taught a stranger a lesson in thorough date-planning after they refused to heed warnings about a wrong number mixup. Securing a dinner reservation on Valentine's Day wasn't this dude's top priority, but petty revenge certainly was. 

                                                                        Valentine's Day can be a restaurant's most profitable day of the year. Desperate singles pour in, begging for tables and heavily tipping servers to impress their date. While many employees rue the day, restaurant owners count stacks of cash after a high-traffic, full house evening. That's why it's always so hard to secure a reservation on Valentine's Day—everyone wants to go out. And if you do, by some miracle, get a table at a restaurant, you better do everything in your power to keep it. 

                                                                        To increase their chances of landing a mate, serial daters, married couples, and every long-term couple will plan ahead of time to avoid being left out in the rain, dinnerless, and romance-free. So when the guy in our next story realized a stranger was using his phone number to secure a reservation for his date on Valentine's Day, he decided to take matters into his own hands.

After spending 40+ hours per week slogging in the mines of your woes, anxieties, and terrible management decisions, ripping yourself away and distancing your psyche from the workplace can be a daunting challenge. Most of us dream of doing something else with our time but justify our current employment for the sake of that much-needed paycheck. 

                                                                        But what if money were no object? What would your dream career look like? 

                                                                        For the first time in a long while, I love my job. However, I've had my fair share of work situations that had me contemplating a sick day every morning. For most, staying with your job is usually a question of money, but as burnt-out employees can attest, there are moments in the workplace that have us imagining an alternative reality. There are jobs out there that are simply intrinsically rewarding but not necessarily glamorous, high-paying, or making our ends meet. 

                                                                        Sometimes, the simplicity of being a barista at a local art cafe or caring for senior dogs at a rescue center is intoxicatingly fulfilling.

Becoming a grandparent is an exciting time in a parent's life. They can guide their children through all of the sweet baby milestones, while also spending lots of time with that adorable grandbaby. 

                                                                        Having a baby is not cheap at all. All those diapers, baby food, clothing, strollers, and cribs add up to thousands of dollars. This family is already spending about $46k each year on their bills, and that's just with a couple of adults living in their home. However, there's a third person involved in this couple: the dude's mom is unbelievably overbearing. She seems to get herself involved in basically every aspect of this couple's lives, including their finances!

                                                                        Some folks may have nothing better to do than go above and beyond in the workplace, while others have the confidence to know that what they are doing is more than sufficient. These overly productive coworkers and employers can make going to work feel all the more challenging. It's even worse if these annoying presences are also incompetent…

                                                                        Parents of 5 ask 16-year-old son to give money to his 4 younger siblings: 'I quit my job and I told my parents I won't work again until I'm out of their house'

If you start working at 16, like this kid, you'll probably enjoy having that extra cash to spend on clothes, concerts, putting gas in your car, or doing fun things with your friends. Sure, you can quit that job, but chances are you'll just switch to a better one instead. While it's great to have a job while you're young, it's always good to have balance in your life, too. Teens should have time for fun in their lives, not just be spending every waking moment toiling away for minimum wage. 

                                                                        This 16-year-old is getting burned out already… pace yourself, friend! You've got the entirety of your 30s to wallow in workplace-related woe. He shared his story online, and people had some compassionate advice for the teen to take. With so many siblings and parents who are irresponsible with their money, the best thing for this teen is to just take care of himself.

                                                                        This past Sunday night, I had an important appointment with my television. I had to ensure that by 9:00pm, groceries, laundry, and meal prep were all complete. I had to make sure that my phone was turned off so I could spend the next hour without any interruptions. After all, it had been two years since the last time I got to experience the strange madness of Mike White's fictional resort live, but now, I could finally breathe. My favorite comfort show, The White Lotus, was back.

                                                                        The best TV shows have a tried and true formula. In every episode of I Love Lucy, Lucille Ball ends up in silly, ridiculous situations that showcase her physical comedy chops. In Law & Order, we follow a weekly case from the perspective of police officers investigating the crime to the attorneys prosecuting it in court. At first glance, the HBO anthology series, which has begun airing its third season, does not appear to be that kind of show. After all, the Emmy-winning program is supposed to be prestige TV, the kind of high-brow material that supposedly transcends the limitations of the medium and is praised for its great performances and cinematic flourishes. 

                                                                        However, from a structural standpoint, The White Lotus continues to recycle its own successful formula: an ensemble of ultra-wealthy vacationers spend a week at an exotic resort that all leads to one person's untimely end. The first season was set in Hawaii; the second, in Sicily; the latest, in Thailand. The seasons are loosely linked with the occasional cast member returning, but the most obvious connective tissue is the identical premise and how it inevitably serves as a backdrop for a delicious "eat the rich" critique. Same story, new location—if you will.

                                                                        Some folks may gripe at the repetitive nature of the series, but as a self-proclaimed White Lotus superfan, I relish in it. Sure, Mike White (who, believe it or not, also wrote School of Rock) created a satire that may not be the game-changing show some people initially thought it was, but that's not to say that The White Lotus isn't masterful. This isn't a show that has necessarily evolved or broken new ground in subsequent seasons. At the end of the day, although White's unmatched sense of casting and dialogue helps mask the series as prestige television, the predictable formula of each season arc is far more reminiscent of the appeal of comfort TV. The series is retreading familiar territory creatively, but that structure is part of what makes The White Lotus so endlessly watchable. Give me 20 more seasons!

Any customer-facing position has its pros and cons, but one major downside to the job is dealing with entitled customers who think you owe them an arm and a leg (figuratively, hopefully). If you've ever worked in the restaurant industry before you are well aware of the qualms you can get into as an employee, especially during closing time when customers can't take a hint that "closed" actually means "closed"! If you're not afraid to stand up for yourself, you might teach one more customer that respect is earned, not given out for free.

                                                                        The kitchen staffer in this story explains that they had a run-in with two entitled customers who didn't understand the concept of clocking out. The two customers were sitting at the bar while the employee was working on an apple pie recipe. The rest of the kitchen had gone home early to the customers' dismay, but their entitlement gets them a one-way ticket out the door.

                                                                        Parents get angry at 16-year-old for not making food for her spoiled 11-year-old sister when she demanded: 'I told her no, but that she had two working legs'

Some people, of course, manage to never even learn this lesson, but one would argue that when you come across these people those experiences generally serve more as cautionary tales.

                                                                        The erosions of their parents' supposedly hard-and-fast rules and strict parenting beliefs have long been a frustration of oldest siblings. At any given age, their parents anxiously held more tightly to every rule, and more carefully weighed the risks of every new thing that the child might want to do, was carefully considered and likely to be forbidden—especially if it had a monetary cost associated with it. 

                                                                        But by the time the younger siblings, and especially the youngest, come along, the parents realize that some things and some experiences their children will be ok even if they don't cling tightly to them and take on a more laissez-faire and easy-breezy outlook on parenting. 

                                                                        'I caught a guy trying to buy a $30k boat': 20+ Employees who overspent on their company credit card

These are just two questions you'd think employees would ask before racking up thousands of dollars on said credit card. But no! Some employees think that their employer's credit card is their own personal line of credit… and most of them paid a high price for these misunderstandings. 

                                                                        Just in case you're unfamiliar with them, company credit cards are often given to higher-ups in corporate roles. That way, when they take a client out to a swanky lunch and pay for their rides afterwards, it's immediately covered by the company. An employee shouldn't have to foot the bill for things like that, so the employer does. Easy! 

                                                                        However, some employees take advantage of this, seeing it as an unlimited-money scenario. Instead of using that plastic card for buying a casual lunch for their team, some people will go out and buy 6 new suits. Yes, one dude actually did that, and expected the company to just grin and tell him how great he looked in those new rags, I suppose? A common way people got caught was filling up their spouses' cars while they were supposed to just be putting gas in the company car. After a quick audit or two, it was all over for those employees. 

                                                                        Up next, read about the job interviews that couldn't have possibly gone worse, like one hiring manager who shared that they "had a guy take almost every pen in the room."

                                                                        It is no secret that looking for a new job is always better while you are still working in your current one. The job market is hard enough, you shouldn't put necessary strains on yourself no matter how urgent you feel like you need to get out of your current workplace. 

                                                                        That being said, searching for a new job while working in another is no picnic. Not only is it extremely time-consuming and mentally draining, but you are also treading a very thin line. You have to be extremely discreet while job hunting, so no one in your current job finds out. That means doing job interviews from home (or hiding in the office's supply closet, if you have no other option), avoiding conversations with your boss as much as possible, and generally keeping your head down.

                                                                        Even if you do all that successfully, there is still a chance your boss will find out about your intentions of leaving the company, which happened to the employee in the story down below. Keep scrolling to read how that happened.

After weeks, months, and possibly even years of overworking yourself and losing sleep over this assignment, you are finally able to say goodbye to it and pass it on. Your bosses are supposedly happy with the outcome and are pleased with your performance and ability to successfully complete this project. Overall, everyone should be happy, right?

                                                                        Well, that is surely the dream scenario, but unfortunately, not everyone is this lucky. Some employees find themselves completely undervalued as soon as they complete their big projects, while others find themselves out of a job entirely.

                                                                        The employee in the story below falls under the latter category. He was approached by his boss telling him he must finish their project by tomorrow morning, so he stayed up until 2 AM working to make sure it was done. The next day, the employee got to work thinking he was going to be praised for his successful performance, but that could not have been further from the truth.

After all, there is a reason why people always say that not all friends make the best roommates. The same can be said of friends who choose to vacation together.

                                                                        A friend group vacation sounds like a loving and peaceful reunion in theory, but anyone who has either seen The White Lotus or who has been on a bachelor/bachelorette trip knows that what sounds good in theory does not always work in practice.

                                                                        Adult life is difficult in many ways, much more than we expected when we were kids. There is so much stuff going on that never even occurred to us when we were younger, sometimes it feels impossible to catch up. 

                                                                        One major thing we never expected we'd have to still deal with as adults, is the need to have someone else's approval on your personal dealings. Sure, as kids, if you wanted to skip school and stay home one day, you'd have to have your parents on board with that. But you never imagine that you'd still need someone's approval to do the same when you're a grown-up. 

                                                                        The same goes for being sick. When you're a kid, if you don't feel well, you tell your mom, she takes you to the doctor, and with a doctor's approval you get to stay home for a few days until you are feeling better. 

                                                                        Who knew you would still have to do all of that when you are a working adult? (minus the mom part, at least).

                                                                        17-year-old sister ruins 22-year-old woman's “dream dress” that she bought for a special event, cries when asked to pay for it: 'I worked hard to afford that dress'

But there are few things that feel as good as finally being able to buy that one thing you've spent months, even years, saving up for. There's a sense of accomplishment involved, for working hard and being responsible with your money. And there's also a huge reward! You've looked forward to having the one thing that your money could buy, and now you're able to make the purchase.

A dream dress is a highly coveted item in a fashionable person's life, and getting that work of art in your closet is nothing to sneeze at. So when her sister asked to try it on, this woman made sure to tell her to be careful with it. As things go, her sister ruined it, and now this woman wants her to pay for the damage. Do you agree that her sister should make up for her mistake? Or is this too much for her to ask? Scroll through to see what you think of this messy situation.

                                                                        Solidarity with our coworkers is a crucial part of a healthy workplace. If we can bond over an absurd project or the boss' annoying behavior, we're more likely to work better together. It's also important to gain trust and understanding with our coworkers so we can all get the work done and go home on time. If the boss isn't looking, it can even be fun to bend the rules a little bit with the few opportunities we have.

                                                                        This makes it all the more crushing when a coworker is on the boss' side more than yours. And when that one coworker is consistently hypocritical about the things they snitch on you about, then it might be time to take it up with the dreaded HR. One man had that issue with a coworker who was consistently late and took extra long lunch breaks, yet told him off if he was even minutes late. It's simple, if you're going to be late, I have no problem with it! Just don't get mad at me when I'm doing what you're doing. Read on to see if you agree with how this guy handled this situation.

If you've ever adopted a kitten, you know that they are both fluffy, sweet little angels, and also purrfessional life-destroyers at the same time. One second, they're snuggled up on your chest, snoozing away, and then a few hours later (specifically at night), they're running around your house breaking literally everything pawssible. It's a lot. And the energy is never ending. This is why we always tell people to do their research before adopting a kitten, and even then it can't fully prepaw you for the chaos that will come.

                                                                        The only way out is through, so you just have to live through it and know that it will get better. Now, some kittens are easier than others. The really hard ones make you question your reality, and even force you to consider rehoming your tiny baby. After being sleep deprived for the last couple of months, one such feline pawrent was at their limit. They asked the internet for advice, and what they received was not quite what they expected.

Yes, yes, we're aware there are other memes that are funny, we do not deny reality. But there's something special about cat memes. They're not only funny, as most memes are (or at least as some memes are) - they also have cats. And if it was not clear up until this point - we're very much in the opinion that cats make everything better. Even memes. You have a meme, you make it with a cat, and it's instantly better than it was before. Cat memes are simply the best.

                                                                        Since cat memes are the funniest, they are the best kind of memes, we want to share as much of them with as many people as we can. This is why we prepared this comedic compound of cat comedy made of 22 funny feline memes. All these feline funnies are really making us laugh here like no other kind of meme. Can we agree at least that cat memes are cute?

Every year, we stock up on a variety of cat-friendly seafood snacks, crank up a custom gotcha day jam, and throw a little celebration in honor of our feline overlords. After an enthusiastic (and probably off-key) singing session, we present them with their seafood feast and remind them—yet again—how much we love them and how much better our lives have been since they joined the family.

                                                                        For the original poster (OP) of today's featured story, celebrating 12 years of feline bliss meant pulling out all the stops with a JCPenney photoshoot—because why not commemorate the occasion with a touch of glamour? The theme? Valentine's Day. And let's just say, this dynamic duo knows how to steal hearts! Dressed to impress and working their angles like seasoned pros, this cat dad and his purrfect feline absolutely nailed their celebratory photoshoot.

It's almost spring, and we're more than ready for warmer temperatures, sunny days, and the chance to actually go outside without bundling up like a human burrito. But alas, the weather gods have other plans. Snowstorms have been sweeping across the country, reminding us all of the sheer power of Mother Nature. Some of us have been more impressed than others.

                                                                            This brings us to today's fantastic feline feature starring a sweet little kitty named Oatmeal. Oatmeal's pawrents thought it would be fun to take him outside to witness the winter wonderland firsthand. But if they were expecting awe and excitement, they were sorely mistaken. Most cats aren't exactly fans of snow—it's cold, wet, and just plain unpleasant on their delicate little toe beans. But Oatmeal? He took his dissatisfaction to a whole new level, serving up the most hilariously unimpressed facial expression we've ever seen. Naturally, the internet lost its mind over this little guy's utter disregard for the snow, and honestly? We get it. We're right there with you, Oatmeal. Enough with the winter already—bring on the sun.

If you don't know this about us by now, allow us to remind you—humans were placed on this planet by a higher power for one purpose and one purpose only: to serve our feline overlords faithfully and loyally. That means ensuring their litter boxes are pristine, their food bowls are never empty, and their water is fresh and flowing at all times. And let's not forget the essential extras—endless toys, cozy napping spots, and, of course, uninterrupted sunbeam access.

                                                                            It is what it is. We love our cats, and we will always prioritize their happiness and well-being—even before our own. After all, if they're not happy, no one is. But sometimes, amidst all the fluff-filled servitude, we need to take a step back, lighten up, and have a good laugh. And that's where hilarious cat memes come in to save the day.  So sit back, relax (if your cat allows it), and enjoy this smashing collection of feline funnies for humans who loyally serve their cat overlords. May your offerings be accepted, and your ankles remain unscathed.

I dreamt that my cat was trying to tell me something very important. I could practically hear his meows in my sleep—then I woke up to find him actually meowing in my face, clearly trying to signal something urgent. And what could a 3 AM wake-up call possibly mean? That's right—my guy was out of food, and refilling his bowl immediately was of the utmost importance. Cats, eh? Can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em!

                                                                            Today, we're celebrating eight years of wholesome feline bliss alongside the original poster (OP) and her purrfect tuxedo boy, Morty. Morty first came into OP's life in the most dramatic way—he was found screaming in her backyard during a snowstorm. The storm worked hard, but the cat distribution system worked harder! There's something so special about sharing memories and life experiences with our feline companions. We can only imagine the love, joy, and—let's be honest—chaos that little Morty has brought into OP's life over the years.

So much of this world is not cat friendly, and you spend all your time watching dog pawrents parade their puppers around the streets as if they are golden children who have been granted full access to the world. And you cannot help but be filled with rage and disrespect towards the establishments and societal constructs that have allowed dog pawrents to permanently be paired with their canine child.

                                                                            So take this moment to massage your mind with cute cats who will hopefully go some way to filling the feline hole that has been burned into your heart. Don't worry, tomorrow is Caturday and all will be well.

Behind every formal feline facade hides a little goblin. Every cat has a goblin inside them, telling them to scream at blank walls and parkour all over the furniture in the middle of the night. Cats might seem regal, like emperors and empresses, ruling over the home with respect and might - but if you have a cat you know all that is a false facade. Every cat is actually a goober gobline goofing around, being as silly as they can.

                                                                            Since this is a known fact, it's no wonder so many weird cat memes exist. Because cats are just weird like that. So cat memes are no different. Some very silly cat memes exist out there - and we're always on the hunt for them. We like the weirdness, especially if it's cat weirdness. Because it's just funny like that. The more weird cat memes - the better.

                                                                            We have a very impurrtant question for you, feline fans: what is your furvorite feature of your cat? Is it their adorable ears? Is it their tiny head that is the purrfect size for forehead kisses? Maybe their cute little toe beans, or their paws? Don't even get us started on their floofy tails. We know that there are almost too many options to choose from, but if we had to pick just one, it would be their noses. A controversial choice, but after this listicle, you might join us in our snoot-favoritism.

                                                                            Each cat has a unique nose that is a different shade, some with spots and some without, but they all have one thing in common - they are all purrfectly boopable. In fact, they must be booped. It's a requirement. If you don't boop your cat's nose, are you really even a cat owner? Joke's on you, they're actually your owner, but that's a different listicle. Anyway, we hope you enjoy this dash of cuteness in the middle of your day, and boop your cute cat for us at home!

Today we're here to witness the meowrvelous union of the two things we love the most in this world (other than cats, of course): nostalgia and feline funnies. We here at I Can Has Cheezburger live in our own little 2000s bubble all the time. It's our safe space. The world was simpler then. 

                                                                            If you know I Can Has Cheezburger, you probably also know the name 'Lolcats'. Lolcats was the name given to a purrticular type of cat meme with people speaking like the cats in the memes. It had its own style and it never failed to make us laugh. This is why we keep doing this every week - to bring us back to that place of just sitting down and laughing at silly cat memes just for the fun of it. If that sounds good to you, you're in the right place! Scroll down to see our best lol-worthy lolcats memes of the week, and have a great weekend.

                                                                            Extremely rare cat born with 4 ears that was found abandoned in a box outside is now adopted and loved just as he is: 'Audio's ears do have a life of their own'

                                                                            You may be surprised to know, but cats can have some unique genetic abnormalities, just like humans. Some of us can be born with things like super flexibility, or an incredible memory, or being born without fingertips. Cool things. Amazing things. Cats are the same. Some cats are born tiny and never grow up, staying the size of an itty bitty kitty forever. Other cats can be born with two noses, both of which are functional, they're just a little louder than most. Other cats are born with extra toe-beans - they're called polydactyl cats, and yes, they are absolutely adorable. 

                                                                            And apparently, some cats can be born with an extra set of ears. Meet Audio, a cat who has one of the most fitting names that we have ever heard of. Because both of his ear sets are indeed functional, and apparently, his second ear set has a life of its own. The second set is a little smaller than the first, and it's most likely going to stay like that furrever, but you know what… we think it's kind of adorable.  

                                                                            'Was only supposed to adopt one, but... I'd be heartless if I separated them': 22 Cutest Cat Adoption Stories of the Week for a Pawsitive Day

Because after so much madness throughout the week, after being strong and resilient and getting through every challenge that came our way, we deserve to chill and see some cute kitty cats finding their furrever homes.

And an extra special, huge shout out goes to every one of you who adopted an "impurrfact" cat - a senior cat, a sick cat, a cat that has been rehomed multiple times and has just needed to meet the right person already. We wish all of you many happy and healthy years together with your new companions.

Cattos often find themselves in quite a sticky predicament when they're outside on their own (because of the single brain cell effect) and the only way they can get back on track is to have a helpful hooman rescue them from the scary dog-eat-dog streets!

Anyone with a heart would have stopped for this tabby "baby shoe cat," that's for sure. They have big beautiful eyes and a story to tell! The user who posted this story succeeded in retrieving the catto from the wall and is excited to welcome them into their furever family… Fellow cat lovers in the comments are taking turns giving "baby shoe cat" the purrfect name.

                                                                              Agile, swift, and always up to some sort of mischief, cats can find themselves in some purrcarious positions. We often see cats up in a tree, hiding in the highest kitchen shelves, or scaling the curtains just to get a better vantage point from above, and usually cats are well-equipped to get themselves down from even the most treacherous climbs. However, every now and then, a cat runs out of their nine lives and is faced with a quandary. 

                                                                              If it was so easy to climb up here, why is it so hard to get down again?

                                                                              Alas, cats may be graceful and full of spry spirit, but what comes up doesn't always come down quite so simply. This kitty in our next story found himself in a purrplexed position after getting spooked by an upcoming snowstorm. Scared by the temperature changes and the drop in air pressure, he scaled the side of a house and got trapped on the roof. This kitty was almost 'Gone With the Wind,' but now he's named Rhett Buttler

They might be clever and have been worshiped for years, starting with the ancient Egyptians and Romans, but they still only have elevator music playing in their heads. They might be master hunters and the most independent out of all the domesticated animals, but they still will get stuck in a tree… Or in this case, high up on a transformer box in the power lines. Very dangers and silly, indeed.

Even if that person is a self-proclaimed "not a cat person," like this blue collar hero here! Equipped with a hardhat, cherry picker, and smoke dangling off of his lip, this man went out of his way to rescue a cat meowing in distress. The itty bitty kitty somehow got herself stuck way up in the sky in a very dangerous place: On electrical wires. And not just any 'ole electrical wires, the transformer box on huge power lines! That's not like a shock you get from rubbing your feet on the carpet, this is something that can char you…

Of course, more often than not (at least according to the vets we talk to), we're worrying over nothing. But hey, better safe than sorry! Unfortunately, our cats don't exactly share our enthusiasm for vet visits. For whatever reason, they seem to believe the vet's office is the worst place on Earth. So, getting them through that front door? That takes some serious coaxing. And by coaxing, we mean bribery.

                                                                                Time to get in the carrier? Oh look! A delicious tuna treat magically appears—just hop in and it's all yours! Crying in the car on the way to the vet? No problem! Another treat, because why not? But once they're in the office, it's out of our hands. Some cats make a break for the vet's sink; others dramatically flop on the exam table. It's all about the mood of the day. To celebrate the struggle, we've put together a collection of hilarious cat memes for fellow feline pawrents trying their best to bribe their cats all the way to the vet. Enjoy!

                                                                                It is rather well known that cats have the propensity to get stuck. Usually it is a case of drop jaw causing them to look shocked at everything that comes their way, and sometimes it is the case of a tiny tongue hanging out of their mouths making them look like the derpiest beings on the planet. But one form of stuckness that is often overlooked is being stuck on purr-mode. In such a case, a cat child is unable to stop purring. They could be mad, sad, feeling bad, and they simply would not stop vibrating away like a bed in a motel room.

                                                                                For a while, this act is impossibly cute, filling our minds with dopamine and believing that our cat children suddenly decided to love us with all their might. However, after a short period, things can turn very weird as your cat cannot contain its purrs anymore, and they start to lose their mind.

                                                                                You know, so often we comment on the craziness of cats. But the one quality that we forget is their ability to chill like no other creature. Their chill can go so deep that a nearby house fire would not move them (so long as it was not a danger to them). And when you throw catnip into the mix, then things get even more chill and zoned out. So considering how late in the week it is, and how fired your brain likely is, we figured that you would enjoy vibing with these conked out cattos and their mission to find some good munch for lunch.

                                                                                Unlike a mission impossible mission, this mission is very possible and plausible, the only thing that is needed is the right munch. You know, the kind of munch that has the crunch, is filling enough for lunch and packs a spicy punch

Every person with a cat knows how funny their cat can be. Whether it'd be because of funny playtime, funny meows and other sounds your cat can produce, or the relentless zoomies they might find themselves doing. Cats are so funny, that when a different and original kind of funny comes from a cat - it's even funnier than usual.

                                                                                One cat pawrent knows that about her vivacious void cat, Claudia, who has a lot of Opinions™ about her hooman leaving the house. And Caludia's face is not just expressive, it's unique. She looks like an animated potoo bird and a Kaa from The Jungle Book had an argument, fought it out physically, and then a black cat tried to hunt them, joined in the mix, and after all the commotion Claudia the cat was born. Seriously, she has the funniest cat face we've seen since the beginning of the year.

                                                                                Since Caludia's hooman mom shared the expression her cat makes every time she tries to leave the house with the online feline family - a lot of cat comedy flowed in the river that's called a Reddit thread. We love both Claudia, and the online feline family for making us laugh so hard we felt we had to share this glorious comedic cat moment with the rest of you.

You probably wish you were the protagonist in all of these heartwarming stories of hoomans adopting street cats. We know we wish we were. We were actually chosen by the Cat Distribution System for the first time last week, and now that we've had a taste of it, we just want more. We were blessed by a beautifully fuzzy kitten who is now probably causing some sort of shenanigans at home while we sit here at work.

                                                                                But we're not here to talk about us today. No, we're here to talk about the kindness of a fellow hooman bean who noticed that a feral cat had given birth on their neighbor's front porch. The neighbor said they couldn't take in the cat and her kittens (even if they were outrageously awwdorable), so the kind person purrfectly said, "Help me bring them all up to mine." Now they're all snuggled up in a blanket, safe and warm. More pictures and story below, so get to scrolling!

Cats are like that. They love us, but they are curious creatures, and nothing - no love in the world - is going to stop them from poking their heads out the door at the worst moments. That's how cats escape, that's how they end up getting found in random neighbor's houses, eating their other cat's food. And that's what happened here. One moment, everything was fine, and the next, the kitty was gone. 

                                                                                It's a good thing that the elderly woman who lost the cat has good neighbors, because this one not only rescued the beautiful cat, but he also went out of his way to find the cat's owner and reunite them. The Bengal was gone for a whole month, and although from the looks of it, she had a pretty nice vacation without too much drama in it, it's still clear that she is happy to be home again.  

                                                                                Tiny miracle kitten who could barely stand takes his first run: '[They told us] he probably wasn't going to survive past 24 hours' (Video)

                                                                                Miracles happen - that's the lesson that this story taught us. That and that everyone deserves a chance. When you rescue a kitten off the street, you hope for the best. You hope that the kitten is healthy, you hope that you didn't tear it away from a mother that is looking for it, you hope that it will live and long and happy life with you. But that doesn't always happen. Sometimes, the kitty that you rescue has been abandoned by its mother not just because it's small, but maybe because it is sick. 

                                                                                The kitten in this story, thankfully, wasn't abandoned by its mother at all. The mother called for help, and luckily, there was someone there who cared enough to do something about it. That was the first miracle. The second one was that, despite being told that the kitten probably wouldn't survive past the first 24 hours, he kept on living. And not only that, but his seizures disappeared, and he started to walk on his own. 

                                                                                We even got an update from the owner: "[T]his was 4 or 5 years ago now and he's living the happiest life with his fur siblings, he hasn't had seizures in years, takes daily meds to ensure that, and we also found a home for his mom too!"

                                                                                That's the sassy science.

When it comes to kitties, you need to work for their love, purroving you're a worthy hooman to curl up with. Felines are decidedly more discerning than most animals, and because of this, cat lovers are always vying for their attention—and we're happy to do so! 

                                                                                  Competing with the other family-friendly pets out there like dogs, rats, birds, and tortoises, cats like to remind their hooman counterparts of the main reason they're so lovable: Unbeatable cuteness and sass. Once you earn a cat's affection, you've become kindred spirits, likely transcending time and space to share a cat nap together on the couch or to cuddle up by the window with your favorite book. A cat lover's true purrpose is revealed when they finally cave and adopt their own kitty. Because when it comes to cat ownership, you'll know immediately if you and your cat are star-crossed souls the meowment you meet.

Black cats are the friggin' cutest! Anyone who has been a pawrent to one knows. (It's the orange cats that are the actual nefarious masterminds of the feline friends!) This sweetie who is a viral sensation on TikTok is named Carlos. He didn't just go viral for his adorableness as a purrfect kitty cat—he's an artist!

His most beloved video is of him on the pottery wheel working on a bowl when Carlos steals the spotlight. He initially is just sitting there looking very quizzical, with adorable head tilts and all. But it's when he starts trying to take a whack at the wheel when things start taking an adorable and creative turn! His hooman tries to gently lead him away, as to not get hurt, but he is also trying not to ruin his video. But Carlos had other plans—the sweet little black cat just wants to be an artist, dad—so he proceeds to continue trying to get his turn at the wheel.

A cat knows, though. They know we are all just floundering throughout life, trying to keep up and keep ourselves together. They see it and they take advantage of it. It's not like they don't understand us. Because they totally do! They choose to ignore us and only respond when they want t—oh yeah, they purrfectly know what we're talking about.

We might try to rationalize everything and give meaning to the meaningless, but one thing we do that is 100% correct is worship our feline friends. That's right, if you're a crazy cat person, then we think you're doing it right. There is nothing that will bring you more happiness and stress than a sweet lil ole kitty cat. And they know it! They go "meow meow MEOOOOOOWWWW" and we don't know what that means. What does it mean kitty kitty?? Do you want more tuna? A head scratch? A world takeover?? What about some cat memes instead?…

It feels as though the sun has been gone longer than a cat who has been told it will not be getting any wet food, and it is starting to take its toll on all of us. But as always there is a cure for this unpleasant situation, and it is to be warmed up from this inside by sweet and silly cat children who know nothing better than how to melt our hearts.

                                                                                    So grab your blankie and settle in for a collection of cats that will warm you both inside and out with the fabulous fluffiness.

Now, while we might outlive our cat children, there is nothing to say that we will not bring more cat children into our world who will be there for us in our time of need. And that is exactly the myth that we are looking to dispel with this list of cute and caring cat children.

                                                                                    We have collected a lavish list full of the most service oriented felines who are dedicated to taking care of others. Whether they be feline or hooman.

This midweek madness brings with it both the happiness of making it this far into the current workweek, and the grueling thought of all the way we still have to go before the next weekend. And it's especially tough on cat pawrents - because the weekend is the time for us to have quality time with our cats, with playtime, naps, and just hanging out with each other. But during the workweek it's tough.

                                                                                    But we have a solution for these times during this midweek madness when you miss your cat at home, and it's a rather cute solution. We're talking about cat memes, of course. These cute little funny reminders of cats' sass, but also cats' sweetness, are the purrfect solution for when you miss your cat. Try out a break with some sassy cat memes to lift your mood, or maybe some funny feline memes to just have a laugh. Cat memes are the best for that.

Even when they're the supreme rulers of your house, even when they prance like they own the place, even when they have the most sleek and smooth fur that looks meowjestic - they are still silly little creatures. All you have to do to break this emperor / empress facade is either open a tuna can, click the laser pointer, or simply listen to the silly little sounds they produce. Cats are so silly and funny, but they don't even know it. Cats sure do like to think of themselves as the kings and queens of their house (which they are, but not as they think) - but in reality, they are as silly as they can get.

                                                                                    To enjoy this silliness to its full potential, we recommend some seriously silly cat memes. But don't worry. You don't have to search far and wide, because we gathered some funny feline memes full of silly cat comedy. These memes are here to remind us of cats' silliness, and having that in our consciousness is much better than not having it.

That meowment when you realized you were a cat purrson? For some of us, it's instinctual. We felt it from the very meowment we set eyes upon these graceful, meowjestic living room-lions that filled a cat-shaped hole in our hooman hearts. But for others, it is not so clear. Some people need to find the right cat to understand that they were "cat people" all along, just as some cats need the right hooman to open up and share all of their fluffy love.

                                                                                    Once that cat comes along though, you can never go back. They fill your life with so many meowrvelous memories that you can't imagine your life without them. And that's exactly what happened to the first-time feline pawrents in the story below - they adopted a fluffy Siberian cat, and now their family feels purrfectly complete. "[It's] the best decision we ever made" - sounds familiar, doesn't it? Scroll down to read the full fluffy story below!

                                                                                    'The ice was cracking beneath him': 20-year-old blind cat wanders onto a frozen lake and almost drowns, but he gets rescued in the nick of time by two kind men

                                                                                    It's a pretty rough winter out there in some places. Sometimes, we don't notice, what with being inside - in the office or at home, cuddles up under blankets with our cats, keeping warm as the world gets covered in a blanket of white out there. But it's true. And it's important to pay attention. This winter, we have come across so many stories of cats freezing alone outside in these harsh winter conditions, and we want everyone to make sure that their cats are not going to join this list. 

                                                                                    It happens though. Cats are curious creatures, and they do manage to escape out sights every once in a while. Even this senior blind cat somehow slipped past its owner and ended up running out into the cold. This cat would have frozen had he not been rescued in time, that's a certainty. The woman who spotted him "floating" in the middle of the lake saw him drowning. It's a miracle that the kitty was saved, and we are thankful to everyone involved in the rescue. Now, we just have to hope that no more stories like these are going to come across our feeds any time in the future.

No matter how many cat memes we scroll through every day, they manage to make us smile all the time. Every single time. There is just something about them. We think maybe it's that feeling of nostalgia that silly cat memes bring us. Maybe it's that sense of being younger again, looking at funny pictures of cats on the internet with no worry in the world. Maybe it's that, or maybe it's just that cat memes are funny at every age, and there doesn't need to be anything beyond that. 

                                                                                    Either way, whatever it is about ridiculous cat memes that makes us so happy - we love sharing it with you guys. We love giving you those same wholesome and pure feelings that we get from them. Knowing that you're smiling at these memes somehow makes putting them together even more worth it for us. And maybe sending some of these to your friends - with absolutely no context at all - will give you the same feeling. 

                                                                                    Good Meowrning!

One moment, you're cleaning your front porch thinking nothing of it, simply gandering at the bright blue sky without a care in the world. The next, you're trying to befriend a one-eared kitten who has clearly taken a bit of a liking to you! When you're chosen by a purrfect kitten, you have no choice but to choose them back. We don't make the rules, the cat distribution system does. So, when you're blessed with the opportunity to be a cat pawrent to a fur baby in need, you jump on that opportunity and give it all you got!

                                                                                      In this heartwarming story, a hooman finds out that a kitten with one ear has been living in the drain in front of their house. Over a nine-week period, they befriend and gain the trust of this one-eared purry baby and show her what the good life looks like. Now, this cat "Wilbur" has a hooman baby friend, too!

We proudly consider ourselves cat people—not because we don't love doggos (we absolutely do), but because we believe cats perfectly embody the mix of silliness, charm, and wholesome goodness that humans need in their lives every single day. That's why we've heard countless stories of families heading into their local animal shelters fully intending to adopt a dog, only to have their hearts stolen by a mischievous, fluffy feline. 

                                                                                          Such was the case in today's featured wholesome adoption story. The original poster (OP) set out to adopt a dog but instead found themselves captivated by a particularly rambunctious tuxedo cat. With his undeniable charm and just the right amount of feline attitude, this little guy worked his magic and secured himself a forever home. We're absolutely swooning over this unexpected love story. Get ready to fall in love with this charismatic tuxie and his heartwarming journey from shelter to sofa!

Things can go quite pear-shaped when we are not using our full mental faculties, and that usually goes hand in hand with having too much time on our hands. So to demonstrate the dangers of not doing enough to keep your mind occupied, we made this list of feline funnies fished straight from the lives of cat children who have far too much time on their hands. And whose minds have wondered far too far from any kind of normality or reality.

                                                                                          So settle in for quite the quirky collection of crazy cats who will thoroughly remind you of the value of being mental engaged. Even if that means putting your head down and doing your work.
