    A friend of mine worked in an office. Suddenly her lunch started going missing from the fridge. She reported it to her boss. Her boss got pissed, because his food was going missing too, and apparently a few other coworkers were complaining as well.
    This went on for WEEKS!
    So at one point my friend put a note on her food saying "if you need food, you're welcome to have it. You don't need to steal, just ask me first so I can plan something else for my lunch" or something like that.
    A day later a coworker asked her if he could eat her food. Sure, take it.
    The day after, the same coworker asked her again.
    My friend went to her boss and told him what she'd done, and who kept asking to eat her food.
    So the coworker at the end was let go. Because yes, he was now asking her to eat her food, but that didn't mean his locker wasn't stuffed with everyone else's food, including the boss.
    What an idiot...

    I spent a while working for a company that had a group of long-standing employees. Because of the length of their service they thought they were the bees-knees and really ruled the roost, choosing the plum jobs and leaving the others to fend for themselves. One of the clique was the department's supervisor so he had no problem going along with their games although the brains behind the clique was a woman called Greta. The games extended to the cafeteria where they had their 'own' table at which they always sat and woe betide anyone who dared to sit there. Their comeuppance came when they walked into the cafeteria one day and found three people, two men and a woman, sitting at 'their' table.Greta, the boss queen had no qualms in telling them that 'they' always sat at this table and told them to move. The three looked at them, then each other before carrying on eating while the clique stood around glaring at them. Greta, face growing redder by the second, then decided to take action and began removing their plates of food and cups, dumping them on a table at the other side of the cafeteria as the trio sat there dumbfounded before getting up and walking out. Boss queen Greta even had the nerve to instruct the manageress of the cafeteria that the table was to be cleaned before they sat down with their own meals. Two weeks later, the supervisor was back on the shop-floor, Greta had left the company and the rest of the clique transferred to other departments (although most of them soon sought other employment). Turns out that the three people they'd ousted were the new CEO and her assistants who were in to get into the swing of things before taking over fully.

I politely asked her to please clean up after them. She told me "this is your yard and therefore your responsibility to keep clean, quit being lazy"
    After that talk I did start picking up her dogs poo, and immediately proceeded to throw it on her car, her car, her responsibility to keep clean, lazy bitch.

    Ah, I remember this story! There was an update at some point, it turned out that Karen had been harassing a lot of her coworkers over their food, specifically “ethnic” food. It wasn’t because of strong odors, messes, potential allergies or any genuine reason. Just because the food was “ethnic”. Hence OP with their different ways of eating potatoes and the coworker with his curry, but there were a few others. Karen threw an absolute tantrum when the curry coworker started bringing in his country’s food again and then ambushed OP to scream about her(OP) being both Asian and a lesbian, which is apparently a huge affront to Karen bc she’s a Christian. Karen made more complaints and basically threw a giant tantrum, her boss apologized privately to OP, and Karen hasn’t been seen in the office since. She was either working remotely, fired or quit,but she was definitely gone from the office.

    I used to sit under the AC at work. I was wearing double layers, and some jealous twat reported me to HR for having nips. HR plus a supervisor parade me through the work floor into the office and asked me if I had a bra on. I was ticked off, so I pulled my shirt up to show my bra. Like, what? They asked! Totally embarrassed them, and I asked if I should be pressing sexual harassment charges on them now, since they required I prove I was wearing a bra. (which, btw, is not in our employee handbook anyway). They backtracked HARD and I said I'd drop it as long as the person who's been staring at my tits instead of working got a reprimand. Then, I got to sit at my desk and watch the whiner get paraded through the cubicles just like I had been. People asked what that was all about, and I told them straight up "She's been staring at my boobs and was too distracted to focus on her job" and she became the laughingstock of the room.

    Storytime:
    I had a coworker literally steal my lunch from the break room fridge and eat it in front of me. I was so shocked (and I have high anxiety, especially about confrontations) I didn't say anything as she tore into the sandwich I had made that I was looking forward to (half a sub roll, Italian cold-cuts, provolone, roasted red peppers, broccoli rabe with balsamic) and my chips and drinking my Snapple, and then the manager came through and reminded her about the policy of not eating at our desks, and she balled up the rest of my food and threw it in the trash.
    I went to the manager about it, and I said I apologized for going over the agent's head, but. The manager said she would take care of it and then. THEN. She did it again to another coworker. That coworker is brave, and walked right up to her and said "Give me back my lasagna." "It's mine." "No, it is not! I made that lasagna last night! Give it back!" It was super entertaining but eventually lunchthief got fired because every single time she stole a lunch it turned out she had hard stone munchies from doing drugs in the restroom.

    I once worked with a coworker who felt entitled to "acts of kindness". You would do something nice for her and it would turn into a moment of "you give them an inch, and they take a mile"
    For example:
    One time I lent her my charger (that I always kept at my desk to charge my phone). I let her use it to her a few more times because hers wasn't working. I was raised to share and help others so I didn't it mind at first and I do similar stuff for other coworkers when I can. Since the first time I kept telling her where she could buy a new cable and giving her advice on making sure the cable worked for her devices and even explained not all devices are compatible with just any type of cable. Months passed and she never bought one because she always "forgot". Well, she did buy one when she went on a road trip but never brought it to the office. The final straw for me was when I came into work and saw her son's tablet charging at my desk with my cable. (The tablet cable had apparently broke and she needed the tablet charged to entertain her young son when he is home from school) I told her it isn't a problem this time but next time please ask before touching my things and she replied "oh, well you weren't here." (Her shift started an hour before mine) so I replied she could have texted me. Later that day I unplugged her tablet to charge my phone and she wasn't happy about it because her son's tablet wasn't fully charged. From that day on I would hide my cable and even take it with me if I left for a long weekend or something.
    She is no longer with the company because of other reasons. But man a book could be written about her entitled and interesting moments.

    My old job didn't believe in air conditioning but would occasionally have free popsicles in the breakroom. However you had to eat them with idiot men crowding around and making disgusting comments, gestures, and jokes (management did nothing about this). So my solution was to pull out my pocket knife and slice chunks off my popsicle to eat. Boy did they freak out. Some of them ran, a couple dry heaved into the trash, they kept yelling and jumping around, all while I downed a twinpop cool as a serial killer. I should have done that years ago. It was a hilarious time, but they all went and complained to the manager, who tried to write me up for "popsicle crimes". I brought up all the sexual harassment he'd been allowing of every single female employee, and there was a ton more stuff than just breakroom nonsense, and got him nervous enough to leave me alone. So I still eat anything phallic in public with the biggest knife I can legally carry to establish dominance. Men's reactions to it are always a good time.

I booked into a three-day writers' workshop way out of town, so she booked in too. You guessed it, she expected me to drive her there and back. After we got set up in our small rooms next to each other, she popped by my room to announce that she would be using my toiletries, skincare, toothpaste, shampoo etc. Seeing as we were only going to be there for a few days she thought she could use all of my personal stuff.

My manager (with a degree in psychology) flipped it on her and started counseling her on why she perceived smiles as being “bad”. The woman was so upset my manager wouldn’t address the issue with me, that she requested a transfer to another area (she was eventually let go due to various other issues including falling asleep at her desk). My manager later joked that I needed to be more of a “bitch” around the office and my other coworkers hung a sign on my desk stating “no smiling zone”.

      Back when the pandemic started, the store I work at had to make announcements (every half hour) basically saying that we appreciated their business, there was a mask mandate, to kindly keep their distance, and if they wanted to they could use the online shopping services. We would end by saying “Have a great day.” We were told by the higher ups that someone called to complain because we were too cheery! Like, seriously? Dang. How sad.

    When I was in the military, a fellow soldier was a very mellow person. So much so, that they thought he was doing drugs. While he wasn't my roommate, I was close enough to him that I knew his habits. He never did drugs, but he was into alternative medicines (non-western). one of the things he liked was to have a cup of catnip tea in the evenings to unwind from the day. he also liked to bake his own breads and pastries (from scratch).
    one day I was called into my CO's office (with First Sargent present) and asked to testify that he did drugs. I vehemently denied this and was threatened with an Article 15 if I didn't. I told them that I would be contacting JAG immediately over their threats. They then back down and told me that that guy tested positive on a random drug test. I knew it wasn't 'random' as I knew they suspected him and were trying to catch him. I told them this and they didn't seem happy about that. I explained to them that although I had NEVER seen him take drugs, nor did I suspect that he ever did, I did know that he practiced non-western medicine usage. I also explained that I knew that common drug tests could give false positives due to some foods/substances that weren't common. And that they should have a more in-depth blood test done. I also informed them that I had expected better from a CO and FSgt that this kind of petty & threating behavior. And that if I felt threatened in any way over this issue again, that I would be in contact with JAG so fast, it would break the sound barrier. That I was also going to document everything according to my memory as soon as I left the office as a record of this.
    Anyways, turns out that the catnip tea and the flour that he was using (poppy seed flour) were the items that tested positive....
    So if you want to get a co-worker in trouble that keeps stealing your food. report to HR that you think they are using and bake some goodies (using poppy seed flour) and let them 'steal' them each day for a week or two until they get 'caught' on the drug test.

    OMG the last story with the food beggar!! I can SOOO relate! At my old job, we had a girl come in part-time for filing and answering phones. She always begged the guys to go pick her up food because "its too cold for me to go outside" though there were 2 fast food places directly across the street. She came out once with MY spaghetti and asked for my recipe. I lost my crap about her stealing my food, and she was completely out of touch about what she could have done wrong. Said she didn't have anything and didn't have money till payday so i could share. SHE TOOK THE ENTIRE BOWL! She went through my bag and took my candy. So i dumped out her purse and asked how she liked me going through her personal things. She didn't understand. One time, she slapped my butt while I was getting files out of a lower drawer and laughed about it. I told another coworker "OMG Tia slapped my ass last night! What is with this girl?" She came SCREAMING at me about "calling her a lesbian" (which I did not do) and i had "no right to talk about her". I said "But i have every right to talk about MY ass and what happens to it...so if you don't want me to talk about you, don't involve yourself with my ass". I have 100 stories about her. She lasted 4 months. lol

    I can completely relate to the first one. I used to drive a co-worker to the office. I got pregnant but wasn't due until Sept. Went home one night at the end of August and went into labour. At 7am, I got my husband to call her to let her know that I was having the baby and couldn't get her to work. Obviously. My husband said her response was, "Now how am I going to get to work". Nice, right? Baby was born at 7:37am. I thought I did pretty good remembering to let her know in the first place. I mean, I was in labour. Side note: I took the baby to the office one day in September as one does and when we saw her, she said, "If he cries, I'll hit him with this stapler". A bit taken aback, I just said that it would the last thing she would do on this earth. Needless to say, never spoke to her again.

    I have type 1 diabetes so I measure my lunch carefully and have it ready in a bento box which goes in the fridge at work. My name is even on the lid of the box. All my co-workers know it's mine and, although I never make an issue of my condition, know that it is important. Recently, a new colleague joined us on 3 month secondment. He started on the Monday and I was working elsewhere Monday and Tuesday so he had 'got his feet under the table' by the time I was back in the office on Wednesday. Put my box in the 'fridge'. Lunchtime, a little later than usual as a meeting ran on, I went to get my box. The strap had been moved. Okay..... no big deal. Opened the box. My chicken wrap was gone. Half my salad was gone. Half my flapjack was gone. HALF - who the h*** eats half a flapjack and puts the rest back???????
    Quick enquiries with colleagues revealed that NC (new colleague) was seen eating a wrap, salad and flapjack in the kitchen but acted as though it was his own. For clarification, we have a small kitchenette with table that seats 2 or 3 out of view of the main office. Some people eat at the table; some people at their desk. I asked NC "Did you take food from someone's box in the 'fridge today?" NC said "It was left there and I forgot my lunch. Not nice food though." Me: "Did it occur to you to look at the name on the box or ask anyone else whose box it was?". NC: "I was hungry. I forgot mine. People should learn to share." Me: "That's very entitled of you. You could have gone to the shop (less than a 2 minute walk away) and got yourself something. Now I have no lunch." NC: "You should learn to share." Me: "You should learn not to STEAL."
    Now he has reported me for calling him a thief. That's okay. I spoke to HR about an hour before he did, reporting him for the theft. It's going to be an interesting week next week.

    I have a kind of entitled story. When I was in college, I was going to this church that was kind of old fashioned. The women didn’t wear makeup and were required to wear dresses or skirts to services. (I don’t attend that church anymore!) One of the older ladies noticed that I wore the same few dresses over and over, because I only had a few dresses, as I don’t wear them a lot regularly. She pulled me aside and said she had some dresses she was getting rid of, and asked if I’d be interested. I said “sure” because, hey, free clothes! It was presented to me as she was giving them away.
    She brought them the next week and I tried them on in the restroom. After I decided on which ones I liked, she said she would have to charge me $10 a piece for them! Whoa! Now, today, I wouldn’t have a problem with that, but at the time, I was a broke college student, and $30 was a lot of money to me. There were other things I needed more than a few extra dresses! I politely told her that, no, I cannot justify spending anything on more clothes. So, thanks but no thanks. She seemed a little miffed. But WTF?
    Today, when I want to get rid of clothes or bags or jewelry, I just give it away! I’ll bring it to work and put it in the break room and let everyone know to go check it out. I work in a nursing home, and some of the nurse’s aides are younger and don’t make much money, so I think they appreciate it. I couldn’t even think about charging them anything! Especially for things that would just be sitting in my closet forever because I don’t use them anymore!

    The only food complaints I remember as being very valid and supported by the majority of the office were a ban on cooking fish in the microwave and popcorn. These were put in place not for the employees comfort but for our clients as well. The fish was totally valid as the smell was incredibly strong, would permeate both floors of the office and linger forever. The popcorn seems extreme but until they banned it someone would burn a bag of it almost every other day and again the smell was very strong and would linger.

Did not even try to clean up the mess. Clogged up the pipes, the smell went down through 3 or 4 floors of the building. They had to call in a plumber to do emergency repairs on the pipes, I believe they ended up flushing the entire system and completely replaced the pipes in the kitchen. A scathing email went out to everyone (there were over 500 people over several floors) that this was NOT allowed in any shape form or fashion. They also banned people from eating tuna fish and heating up fish dishes in the microwave. This was an exec who did this. He eventually got fired for abusing his position in other ways as well.

I always took a different way to get to work. It got to the point where she didn’t offer me gas money, but instead she would offer to buy me a cup of coffee or something to munch on at work. I would’ve preferred gas money and also I didn’t want it to become a regular thing, which it did. She had a husband at home that could’ve picked her up and taken her but he didn’t want to have to wake up early to take her or leave the house to go pick her up from work. It soon made me very resentful and I had enough of it and would tell her I was driving Uber right after work so I didn’t have to take her home. Also… I didn’t want to pick her up in the mornings so it got to the point where I would just ignore her text messages of her asking me if I could pick her up on the way to work. It made it 10 or 15 minutes of an inconvenience out of my mornings when I did and sometimes I sat and waited for her at at her house and she wasn’t even ready when I’d get there.

One of the fellow hires lived in one town and we worked un the other. She asked if we could carpool. I said yes, but we split the gas. Which was literally 7-10$ a week. She started that, "I brought you a muffin" for the gas this week". Ah, NO, I don't eat that or like it. We agreed on payment. Drama! It was a lot out if my way, she was never on time. And her husband was a lazy bum. I transferred offices to the local one.

    I had a coworker who was highly allergic to oranges and mandarins. During Christmas several of the other coworkers (one in particular) conveniently “forgot” this and would peal the orange at his desk. We had told everyone at the office that if they really want oranges they would have to go outside to eat them. It go so bad that we literally had to ban oranges from the office. I feel bad for the girl who was allergic. When ever someone ‘ forgot “ here eyes would water and she struggled breathing. Why are people so inconsiderate?

    I had two co-workers that sat in front of each other. One of them, let's call her "K" started to demand co-worker "A" that she shouldn't type so loud at her keyboard since it was stressing her out. Coworker A asked the surrounding co-workers if this was an issue, no one was concerned at all. Few weeks pass by and things start to escalate, from yelling of K "asking" A to stop typing that loud to menacing to punch A if she didn't stop typing. At this office you need to type all day long so that wasn't going to happen.
    This might not be surprising but no one liked K since she was entitled and rude to everyone. She also "cleaned" the phone she shared with other 3 co-workers, A included with her armpit after she used it.
    Boss tried to settle things up by meeting with both but nothing made K to improve her behavior.
    Few months pass by and by this time, we're used to hear K yelling to A and A yelling her back.
    Finally it's announced that there will be some lay outs (very unusual thing at this office, since it's virtually impossible to get fired) and unsurprisingly, K gets fired for a work related issue.
    Needless to say we were all thrilled to see K leaving, especially A.

I kindly asked her if she might heat it up in the other buildings kitchen, approx. 60ft walk from our building, right inside the door, but she couldnt be bothered.... Since that time i asked her for that favor, everytime she heated it up and brought it back to her cube across from mine she would give me the fake, mean girl, ooh im just so sorry sweetie, look.

    So, not a co-worker story but a work story. Years ago I worked at a pet store. I had just got hired on so at this point I was only working as a cashier. As many pet stores do, we had a club points card. There are a lot of benefits to the card so we are told to ALWAYS ask if the customer wants to sign up. When I am a customer, I don’t like to be pushed into that stuff, especially if I’m in a hurry. So, I only asked the customers 1 time , if they said no, I moved on. Well in one of our meetings, we were told that we are now to ask ALL customers 3 times to sign up. I refused to do this because I thought it was way too pushy. They proceeded to tell me that this is what head office wants and I would get fired if I didn’t do it. So obviously, I reluctantly complied. Ones day, as I was checking out the customers in the line up, I was approached by a co-worker who said “ I’m here to take over for you, the manager wants to talk to you”. I headed over to the office thinking it was an issue with my paperwork since my 3 month probation period was almost up. I step through the door and was given a 30 min talk about how the customers were complaining that I was too pushy when asking if they wanted to sign up for the card. I went silent for a minute, thinking, this has got to be a joke. After seeing the manager just stare at me, I knew he was serious! I said….. “ you have got be kidding me! You tell us to ask 3 times and I refuse thinking it’s to pushy. You then tell me I will be fired if I don’t do it. Now your writing me up because customers are complaining it’s too pushy !! Does this make any sense to you?”
    The manager looked at me and said “ sorry but we have to write up if a customer complains. It’s policy! “ . He then proceeded to tell me that because so many customers complained about the same thing that I only had 1 more write up left . If I got one more write up, I would be let go. BUT…. Here’s the kicker….. I then asked “ so can I stop asking 3 times now?” . I was told NO, head office wants it that way. I quit and walked out right then and there

I almost complained to management about it, not the cashier trying to sell it to me but the store for making the cashiers try to sell it to me. Now though, they have so many self-cashouts it's practically null and void. Kicked themselves in the foot with that one!

    Story time.
    I had a gap year after high school to earn money for university (public education is free in my country but I planned on going to a different city, so would need money for housing/life). I went to UK (I am Polish, before brexit a lot of us went there because earnings are better than in my country). I found a job and I rented a room in a house full of other polish people. Some of us worked in the same place (that was in another small city, not the one we were living in). I had an agreement with a guy living with me (let's call him Jerry) that he would drive me (I did pay him for gas), as it was more convenient for me than catching a bus/train. He had similar agreement with few other people.
    All was good until I visited Poland for a wek in January. My returning plane got canceled and my trip was rescheduled for another day. I called a friend in UK to tell him that and asked to inform work and my housemates that everything is fine with me, just a plane problems, and that I will be coming 2 days later.
    My rescheduled flight was a night one, I arrived at my place around 1 AM. I went to sleep and got up at 5 AM to go to work (I did not want to loose another day, and my work started at 6). I met Jerry in our shared kitchen, we exchanged greetings, he asked me about my trip and said that it really sucks that my og flight was canceled. Then we went to our rooms. Later I went downstairs and, as usual, I went to Jerry's car to go to work with him. He looked at me weirdly and asked me "What are you doing?". Suprised, I answered that I do not want to loose another day of work. He replied that because I was late coming back from Poland he made agreement with another person to drive them to work because HE WAS LOOSING MONEY ON AN EMPTY SEAT IN HIS CAR. I was shocked, I started asking him why would he do that, he obviously knew why I was late, and on top of that he even met me before in the kitchen and did not say a word to me. Tbh I would not even argue with him and simply pay him for a whole week of riding instead of counting how much exactly I need to give him for driving 2 days less (at some point he started driving the car). He turned to other people in the car and said "guys do you hear the bullshit she is saying?", to which I replied "I am the one you are talking with, so do not involve other people please and talk with me". He stopped the car and told me to get out, which I did. I went to the train station and caught a train, but it was too late for me to catch the early one, so I started work at 7 that day. I apologized at work for my absence, to which I was told that all is good, because nothing can be done if a plane is cancelled.
    I do not think I need to add how mad I was at Jerry. I stopped talking to him and decided to treat him the same way he treated me. In December I spent several hours shopping with him, because he wanted to buy his girlfriend a ring (she was supposed to visit him for Christmas), and his English was not so good. So i went with him to sdifferent jewelery shops to help him pick something nice and act as a translator. I googled how much a translator earns and multiplied it by number of hours I spent shopping with him. I told him that he owns me money for my translator job, since it definietly was not a friendly favor and called a price. He did not comment, paid me and then he gossiped about me at work (I think it is worth noticing, that I was 18 at the time, he was 31).
    I did not bother, because people can think of me whatever the hell they want. I was there to earn money for school. I did not comment on his gossiping, but if someone asked about me and him I also did not hide the truth. Several weeks later people at work started approaching me and apologizing for believing his words. Turned out his behavior alienated him from others at work and they stopped believing his words.
    If anyone got to the end of this comment - congrats ;)

    the first one reminded me of my mom's female colleague who is so entitled she ask their other colleague (who does maintenance in their company) to send her home every day, even though she knows the guy has more important obligations of fetching his two kids from school which finishes at 5pm. The guy is too nice and timid, and this lady thinks she could order him around because she helped him get the job at the place. His wife found out and snapped at her for forcing her husband to send the lady home when her own partner who is jobless could actually fetch her from work everyday.
    Entitled colleague stopped asking the guy to send her home and apologized to the guy but not to his wife, and started ignoring her or act nice when they're in the same vicinity.
    Side note: that lady's partner and the the maintenance guy's wife actually worked together in the same company, the partner got let off due to retirement age.

    This isn't really a coworker story but I thought it was hilarious. I worked in an office and dealt with some weirdos. Property management office to be precise. I would very often make my own food and bring it to work. My job requires me to be out in the field a lot so I had to leave my lunch at the office. I left it on my desk. My coworkers tell me when I come back that someone had come into the office to apply for a property or something and had mentioned how good my food looked. (It was in a glass container and it was anabolic buffalo chicken pasta with vegetables. Ofc it looked good.) She literally asked if she could have it and got weird with my coworkers when they told her that it belonged to an employee who wasn't in the office at the time. Apparently she tried to justify it and say that she just wanted a bite, she was so hungry, I wouldn't know because she didn't want very much and there was a lot of food. When she was repeatedly told no, she got upset and suggested that there shouldn't be food left out in a setting like this unless it was for everyone else. My coworkers didn't let her touch my food, and we did not approve her for the property she wanted lol

I was a very well paid intern which helped me greatly with my university tuition. BUT… I nearly quit by the four month mark because one woman went insanely out of the way to either sabotage my work, make me miserable, throw out my lunches, break my office supplies including my keyboard and monitor, unplug my phone, attempt to steal something from my bag, bad mouth me to anyone that would listen, or just make my day harder and harder as time passed (I even have suspicions that she’s the one that slashed my tires one day). Turns out she was upset I received the internship over her NOT ELIGIBLE DUE TO AGE 17 year old daughter. You needed to be 20. I was 21 and finishing my four year honours. I didn’t even know she had a daughter until she screamed at my boss about it (my cubicle was near his but the entire floor could hear) and saying I DELIBERATELY STOLE her daughter’s NON-ELIGIBLE placement. 😑

Nobody could get ahold of him. What he was supposed to be working on was very important and time sensitive - it absolutely had to be finished that day, so I agreed to put in the overtime and get it done myself. I finally finished it and got back to our house at about 11:30PM, to find a passive-aggressive note on the door complaining that it was my turn to clean the bathroom today, and why didn't I come home in time to get that done? Uhh, maybe because I was doing YOUR job all evening?

    When my son was in a preschool program at three years old three days a week, one of the little girls had a mother who was legally blind and they either walked or caught the bus in bad weather. Finding this out, I offered to pick the girl up and take her as it was directly on the way. The mother would only allow me if I let her pay part of the price of the gas, so it was fine and she’d give me two dollars a week. The arrangement worked out great. One of the other mothers thought that if I was picking the girl up, iI should be happy to pick her daughter up and as I couldn’t think of a reason not to as I’m a wuss and too scared to say no, I started to do it. It lengthened the journey and waiting for the second girl who wasn’t always prompt. Luckily being the seventies and the gas problem and strictly rationed, I had to stop taking the second child because it was quite a lot more expensive. So in one way the every other gas days worked out for me and the journey was shorter. Those kids loved the program, he was in anther class the next and another the third year after which he went in ti the county school. People love to try and make you feel bad about not doing some that is convenient for them even if it’s not the convenient and you get suckered in every time.

    I live in the bible belt and am a Pagan. Everyone that worked with me knew I was a Pagan. I also knew there was a very good chance that whoever was taking my shit was a super religious Christian. So I went out on a limb and started drawing GIANT pentacles on every side of my lunches. Pop in the fridge? Draw a pent directly on the cap and a massive one on two sides. Frozen lunch? Literally drew a pent on every side.
    I figured that they could try to ignore my name, but that if it was a super religious coworker they wouldn't want to be caught dead eating or drinking something that very clearly had a "symbol of satan" on it.
    Wouldn't ya fucking guess... my shit stopped disappearing. I drew pentacles on my food and drink items from then one for the rest of the time I worked there which was another like... 3 years. My shit never got stolen again.

I had to stop leaving them in the shared fridge as they started getting stolen. Well, my mom was pissed. So, I kept my meal in my car in a special refrigerated cooler I could plug into my car and my mom would bait my fake meals with different laxatives.

    Had an entitled co-worker that would take off at random times for "a funeral in New York," (she did this 3 times in a few months, it's absolutely a lie) and I'd have to do her work. If I tried taking a day off, she'd just so happen to call out that same day and I'd have to come in. I took off One day in 7 months. One day we realized she didn't clean/sanitize any of the surgical instruments *from last week* and my friend/coworker decided, "fuck it, we're not cleaning this shit for her, we have to always do her work and she throws a fit when we say we can't. She can figure out surgery day tomorrow on her own."
    We told our manager and demanded she get talked to about this. We are not giving her any of the instruments we prepped for our providers tomorrow, and this is entirely her fault. Our manager told us it's our responsibility to do her work, because she'd do the same for us (fuck no she wouldn't) and that we're in the wrong. So we need to treat each other like family. The manager then immediately left saying she refuses to help us as well...so we stayed an extra hour and a half cleaning bloodied instruments that were stored in stagnant, week old water.
    She came in the following day, quit, and then left. We had to do her surgeries too. Apparently that was our fault as well according to the manager.

    Haha the Potato Karen would hate my office. About 25% of my coworkers are from India and none of them I know go out for lunch (except for special occasions) - instead, they bring food from home and our kitchen at lunch time always smells like an amazing Indian restaurant. My only complaint is when they don't share 😆 before we started working from home, my work BFF always brought me a small side container so I could sample her Indian dishes. She was literally the best!! And at potlucks, I know who made most of the Indian cuisine because I'm familiar with their recipes - I could literally spot "Sunil chicken" from a mile away.. my all time favorite!! And he named it that - not me lol

    OK....I (Irish/Cherokee) eat potatoes this way a lot...if I have organic potatoes so that I can eat the skin too. Plain potatoes are filling...low cal...highly nutritious. Low cost, too. Also, on freezing cold mornings, you can put a hot potato in each coat pocket(wrap a napkin around it if you are worried about your clothes) and it is GLORIOUS. By the time you reach your destination, the potatoes have cooled off a little but are still warm enough to enjoy eating.
    When I was a little farm kid, my folks kept a couple of cows to provide milk for the family and believe you me, those cows appreciated potato warmed hands on a cold morning.

The day before our flight we were all working to get ahead for the crew left behind. I got there at 7 Am. Boss came in after 9AM. My coworker said she couldn’t work late since she had to take her kids to their dads house to care for them while we were out of town. She said, “y’all can’t leave til everything is done.” I told my workmate I would stay as long as needed so she could get her kids.

    I play an MMORPG, and once in awhile I feel generous, usually when it's a newer player.
    I met another female player while farming a world boss, and while talking between waiting for the boss to respawn, she told me she regretted making her main character a male. Only way to change this is to either delete and reroll the character, start over from scratch, or buy an appearance change scroll in the game store.
    I decided to be nice and bought her the scroll and gifted it directly to her.
    No thank you.
    No nothing.
    Next words out of her mouth were asking me to buy her the Lion Mount too, and I was like "is this B-word serious right now?"
    Not even a "Thank you", like, seriously?
    I was just being nice because she was new, this was her only character so far and rerolling it to change the gender appearance at that point would have been silly with how much time she already put into this character.
    And as a female player I get wanting to hide behind male characters to ward off the thirsty dudes. This particular game isn't so bad for that at all, so once she realized playing a female character wasn't gonna invite creepers into her DMs she regretted not making the character she actually wanted to make.
    That still bugs me, but it hasn't stopped me from being kind to other players when the mood strikes me.

    At my old job I had to deal with several entitled "Karens", who either said or caused issues for me due to my being dyslexic and having audio processing disorder - which basically mean sometimes it take me a little longer to process instruction, verbal or written, and sometimes I need instructions repeated to me (multiple *sigh* times even).
    This obviously could cause a lot of frustration in the workplace. However, most of my coworkers and my supervisor understood my issues, and even it delayed things, they were patient with me. Other's were not, these others were the entitled karens.
    One such entitled "Karen" - she was the self appointed office manager (she would go into the kitchen around lunch time and "monitor" what people cooked, how long they were in there and so on) - decided, by herself, that she was going to plan th Christmas party and because I happened to share a pod with her, she strongarmed me into helping her (because, as she said, I was ONLY IT support and had plenty of time on my hand... I was the IT Support Officer for my entire office of over 70 people, as well online support for all our stakeholders (who were well into the thousands).).
    She gave me a whole list of things to do, verbally, which I did my best to follow, but of course unfortunately, I missed several "key" points. When I asked if she could repeat herself, so I could check what I had got and what had gone over my head, she refused, and sent me on my way.
    I did my best to follow her instructions and actually thought I did a pretty good job of what she wanted, only for when I came back to her with what I had done, she exploded at me, calling me stupid and 'what was wrong with me, why couldn't I follow simple instructions'?.
    Now by this point, we've been working in the same pod for over 6 months, she knew I was dyslexic and had comprehension issues BUT she still took digs at me, so when she exploded I, in turn, burst into tears. Workmates around us froze the moment she started shoutng before I was pulled away outside to calm down (I wasn't like hysterical but I hadn't realised just how much "Karen" had been upsetting before now, so all that hurt was just coming out)
    Anyway, I heard later that "Karen" tried to defend herself by saying that someone with my "difficulties" shouldn't be employed in an office environment when I can't even follow simple instructions for planning a Christmas party. "Karen" was told by my supervisor to stop, saying that even with all my "difficulties" I provided above and beyond IT support to our whole office and stakeholders for the last 7 years and planning a Christmas party was NOT part of my job discription.
    She was moved out of my pod soon after and she avoided me like the plague until she left right at the beginning of Covid.

It never mattered how many times he was reminded/told that food for the entire office was put on the counter or an email would be sent out, he would free range the fridge. When confronted, he would always blame the owner of the food for not putting a name on the food and then walk away.

    Ugh... this all reminds me of a (fortunately gone now) entitled coworker. We had recently gotten a message from property management saying "concerning odors in the building due to the exhaust from diesel equipment being used in the construction site next door being pulled into our bldg by our outside air intake dampers.” They told us the equipment would only be in use for a few days, so they would be closing the dampers to 20% for outdoor air entering the building which is the maximum allowable per OSHA and ASHRAE guidelines. This would mean we'd feel our suite warm up a bit, but nothing a fan couldn't take care of, and the odor would disappear entirely. Being the office manager, I visited each person in our office to personally make sure they were aware of this, in case they hadn't read the message. I even provided fans for those who didn't already have one. The next day, Entitled Coworker asked me to call building maintenance about an "office temperature problem", to which I replied with a reminder about the dampers/construction situation, as well as the fan I'd provided. Entitled Coworker said the fan would be too disruptive, and insisted I call maintenance anyway. Since it's my job to fill such requests, I went ahead and (apologetically) called maintenance. They sent their top manager, who very kindly and patiently explained the same damper/construction situation to Entitled Coworker while I stood by for moral support. Entitled Coworker literally scoffed at the explanation, and suggested to the maintenance manager that he should JUST TELL EVERYONE ELSE IN THE BUILDING TO TOLERATE THE EXHAUST BECAUSE ENTITLED COWORKER IS HOT!!! This a-hole refused to have a (very quiet, btw) fan on for a couple of days, and felt it was a more reasonable option for an entire building full of people to be breathing toxic fumes. Maintenance Manager and I both just stood there staring at him, and trying not to glance at each other in shock. In the end, we both just told Entitled Coworker we'd "see what we could do", but couldn't guarantee anything would change before the construction had ended in a couple days. There were many times when that coworker showed entitlement, but that one was BY FAR the weirdest. I was quite relieved when they moved on. Can you even...?

None of us did though because we were not about to do the hard part of sorting just to let her collect all the money, she also had no concept that none of us were even getting a vacation this summer let alone to Europe.

    I’ve been waiting for this! I’m going to make a LONG story short (or at least try). I used to do corporate onboarding for a large company. we had a fabulous 2 day (fully paid) orientation where new employees from all sorts of ranks learned about the company history and policies. It was actually fun bc we incorporated games and SNL videos. Not ur typical boring orientation.
    i did this for 3 years and will never forget the most entitled person EVER! Let’s call her “Elle” (not real name obv).
    Elle came in on day 1 of orientation and was welcomed with a name tag, her favorite candy (special treat we ask hr to collect info in advance), and a breakfast consisting of croissants, danishes, apple juice, orange juice and coffee. Without so much as an introduction Elle asked why we didn’t get donuts as well. Breakfast was already complimentary.
    She proceeded to question and retaliate every single fact about our company and industry basing her experience in a different state and on the one time she worked in Puerto Rico (we’re in Florida!). I kindly told her that these were all very real statistics and she was welcomed to check them on the state website. Proceed to lunch we take them to the company restaurant which is exclusively for guests and managers. This is equal to 4-5 star dining experience but the lunch options for orientation are buffet style with a selection of 3-4 desert options because it’s completely free. She complained that there weren’t enough desert options and if I could please get her something else. I said no sorry this is what is available to our group, she asked how was it possible that a 5 star restaurant didn’t have more options. I told her there are more options but that’s reserved for paying guests and this is a courtesy the company does for orientation. SHE WENT BEHIND MY BACK TO ASK THE SERVER TO BRING HER ANOTHER DESERT! The server told her she wasn’t allowed and Elle complained that it must not be 5 stars afterall! The following day she complained that the day was too long and not as fun as the previous day. I had explained in advance that day2 is when we take our regulatory/licensing classes which EVERYONE has to do for legal compliance. She complained that the company only gives 2 free uniforms instead of 3! She complained that the company doesn’t give out shoes as part of the uniform and she has to provide her own! She complained about everything!
    Elle did not make it past 3 months…
