The woman who wanted to leave her kids with random workers on the street reminded me of a time about seven years ago when a thief stole a car in my town, realized there were two kids in the back (ages 1 and 3), turned around, brought the car back to the grocery store parking lot. By that time the police had been called by her, but the thief still marched over and screamed at the mom, "What is WRONG with you?! You left the keys AND your kids in the car?! I could have been a predator! I could have been a kidnapper! Do you not care about these two AT ALL?!" As he was getting arrested, he told her, "This kind of neglect is how people end up like me. You're a TERRIBLE parent!" She has not lived that down. Our town is 8,000 people. Everyone gossips here. Her kids are now 8 and 10 and people still mention it to her and, even worse, have told the kids the story repeatedly. For the rest of her life, she's going to be followed by the memory of the time she left two kids under the age of four in a running car.

You know what is funny? You know Poland is verry much catholic country right and in Poland on 6th december there is day called "Mikołajki" cellebrating Santa Claus or how in Poland he is called Święty Mikołaj. You may wonder why this is celllebrated, but it's simple Santa Claus is based on Saint Nicholas aka Święty Mikołaj. So objectively speaking Santa is real historical figure and not only that is part of christianity. So that woman was just a fool :)

The entitled neighbor one is WILD to me. My mom orders everything online - reasoning for this is she is bedbound and can't go to the store herself. Packages that she has ordered have been accidentally delivered at a neighbor's house DOZENS of times, to they point where they're kind enough to take it inside so nobody steals it until my sister or I come knocking on the door to ask about it. And they always hand us the package with a smile - the package still being completely sealed - then we apologize for bothering them and go about our day. The fact that people don't understand that it's common courtesy to not open someone else's package hurts me. So her getting the revenge she deserved was so satisfying to see.

The thing was, I had just joined the military and there was a fun gym exercise there, as instructors would throw tennis balls at us and we had to dodge them against a wall. So, without me even realizing it, as I saw dad prepare to hurl the ball at me, my training kicked in and I ducked, very effectively. Problem was, behind me was a glass kitchen cabinet and a bunch of other glassy things - including a travel memento with sand in it.

Do what exactly? Keep commiting a federal crime that would get you in serious trouble if the other person pressed charges or told the right person to do it for them? That is so stupid on multiple counts and I'm just glad that beautiful girl was alright after her ordeal, live shipment is already stressful enough for most animal species and to be manhandled by an entitled brat of an adult woman and possibly her small child as well, I do wonder if they coulda threatened an animal abuse charge as well because stealing animals is also its own crime that also warrents fines and abuse is jailable as well. The more you know! But seriously, sarcasm and utter lack of empathy for thieves aside, mail theft is a bigger crime then most people realize and it gets even worse if they'd stolen any federal or state letter as that's also a breach of privacy and- yeah, that woman would be screwed six ways to sunday if op wanted to ruin her life so let's all agree to share this info with anyone dealing with porch pirates, especially if they can get a confession or photo/video evidence of them, because it is absolutely something you can call the police about and they may not be able to act immediately but they'll give them a mighty big wakeup call, especially if it's repeated offenses logged

He insisted that my health condition was that I was pregnant and kept hounding me about information about my baby/pregnancy.

The whole point of Santa (for the grownups) is to do good acts without getting credit. The fact that evangelical MiL thinks the only point of Christmas is to praise your parents for everything they do tells me she has an Ego the size of the moon.

I heard some religious fundamentalists hate Santa because it’s lying to children or it’s a pagan practice or because magic is a thing of the devil, tbh I don’t remember which, probably all of the above. It’s possible that the MiL was just being petty but I wouldn’t exclude she wanted her granddaughter to stop being grateful to Santa and being grateful to god instead. You know, who puts food on the table is hard working parents yet the prayer before the meal thanks god.

As far as I've heard, the problem for these people tends to be that the kid should be praising and thanking GOD for everything, and Santa is a false idol. The kid should not be thanking this imaginary man who is not real for her gifts - she should be thanking God. And in a God-fearing household along the lines of this woman's ideal, when parents tell their kids "I got you a Christmas present", the next thing that parent is going to say is "because God allowed me to have a job and make money to buy you that present, so don't thank me - thank God".

As for Pagan practices on the holidays, about 95% of the Christmas rituals, from decorating the tree to wrapping presents, has pagan origins. Its easier for a stick in the mud religion to steal and take credit for fun holidays than it is to ban said holidays and expect it to stay enforced.

I rolled my eyes at them and sat there with my son in the store and explained Santa "the person" is based off a real person and is now a "feeling" of giving and togetherness people get around that time.

I have a decent chunk of sales experience so a few things. A: I have never opened trying to sell and answering yes comes off as a greeting as I say my name, business, & why I'm calling. This tip makes 0 sense and sounds like an old wife's tale. As a call center agent what not enough people say is, "please take me off your calling list" if said politely. A good company will honor that request as you're a waste of resources to call. If your still getting calls from the same company and you never asked to be taken off the calling list because you keep hanging up, we take plausible deniability and higher ups assume you just, "lost connection" when we say the company name. Just ask to be taken off the calling list and it's easy as hell to honor. if it's a shady company that is indignant, then proceed to escalate up the chain, get irate at higher chains, or be the companies nightmare. Being mad at those that are told orders to follow does NOTHING. You can also block them but asking to be taken off the calling list is a really easy solution. Same with door to door sales, in fact most if not all local municipalities have laws requiring solicitors to skip houses with a clearly marked, "NO SOLICITORS" Some will even only allow door to door solicitation if they have received a permit from the local clerk's office. Tips for a no solicitors signs; make it so easy to see someone walking from the left or right will see it. Trying to be funny or rude with the sign can backfire because it makes it look like other generic, "welcome home" signs. All it needs is the words, "NO SOLICITORS". Being rude to the salesmen is pointless because that achieves nothing and believe me, 9/10 that door to door salesmen is having a worse day then you (barring the my SO just died). Very few people actually like being door to door salesmen and only do it because it pays well and can come in clutch when the job market is shit. And, DO NOT THREATEN THEM WITH A WEAPON. That act can be taken to court. You are needlessly traumatizing someone just trying to pay their rent.

Then others will say "you couldn't of just ignored it?" Like, no. I got taught in Preschool not to touch others they should have learned the same thing. then i get told "it was a different time."

Yep. As a teenager I had the ribcage equivalent of a sprained ankle. Breathing hurt so you can imagine what being hugged felt like. I refused to hug my one grandma because she always patted you on the back and I knew that would hurt like hell. But nope, she "promised" not to do it so I was forced to hug her (aka blackmailed) and.....SHOCKER she patted my back and I burst into tears because it HURT!! She immediately demanded an apology "for hurting my feelings". I said I'd only apologize if she apologized to me first (with no plans to apologize even if she did) and was informed by her that she didn't have to apologize because she didn't know it would hurt me. I pointed out that's why I'd had her promise she wouldn't pat my back and she accused me of making her the bad guy. Yeah, I walked out and sat in the car. My "oh so helpful" spawn points told me that we wouldn't be leaving till I went and apologized to grandma. They were very not happy when I said "Well I don't have anywhere to be so we can wait for her to apologize" and I was told she had nothing to apologize for. After ignoring them for a solid 30 minutes they drove home. They now wonder why they know almost nothing about my life as an adult "because we did everything for you".

Interpersonal questions such as how to cope with childcare during working hours are allowed, but do not have to be answered. Unless the question is asked by a self-important junior boss, it is more likely to be used to determine how the company can accommodate and support the (potential) employee. The question of childcare is not a trick question in every country to the detriment of the applicant.

I have had 2 instances where my lack of shame about my period disturbed people at work. I am not a complete ass about it but if pushed I can be. The first was when I worked in a call center for tech support for an ISP. I was not feeling well. I was cramping and I had to rush to the bathroom because my period decided to show up a few days early. So I make a mad dash to the bathroom to clean up and such. I had a male supervisor who would literally keep track of peoples phone codes and asked me why I ran for the bathroom when I only had 20 minutes to break. I said "Well...there is 3 things a lady would do in the bathroom...and if you insist I can go into vivid detail about colour, viscosity and all the other details of it."He went pale and backed off and said"n..no i'm good." He never bothered me again about it. The other time was a male co worker who was..lets say innocent about somethings in the world. I was walking with a pad in my hand because I was wearing a dress at the time and had no pockets so I have the pad which the wrapper is bright orange. The co worker being somewhat nosey asked. "what's that?!" I said "you don't want to know man.." And i moved to keep walking...he stopped me and asked again and again I told him you don't want to know. He again asked and I said "It's a pad!" He looked confused and said "Like...a note pad?" And I was cranky and in pain so I said "No its a sanitary pad to catch the blood and clots currently flowing my my vagina." He also went pale and backed off so I could go to the bathroom. So yeah please people if you see a woman or...Honestly anyone heading to a bathroom with some kind of urgency just leave them alone, Because they might be like me and will tell you alllllll about it.

Yeah, one of my classmates in high school learned a very valuable lesson about not going in other people's stuff and asking invasive questions. For context, I'm a demiguy and afab, the rest of my class was amab, and I used to have a period till I evicted my uterus. A classmate asked me for a post-it note (my bag literally got the nickname "Mary Poppins bag" due to how much it held for it's size), but for some reason decided not to wait when I said "One sec, lemme finish this conversation" (I was on the other side of the classroom) so he went in my bag himself. Found a stack of bright pink post-its and tried to rip off the top one...yeah, it wasn't post-its. Pad went flying through the air landing in another classmates lap. He was the youngest of 5 and the only boy, so he was completely unfazed and just handed it back to me. And somehow the first classmate still didn't learn. Fast forward a few weeks and I'm grumpy because I didn't get nearly enough sleep in pursuit of perfect grades so I would get yelled at less. But no, he's a genius and knew "exactly" what was wrong with me. Or as he put it, in a mocking sing-song voice _"I know what's wrong with Waffles"._ I looked him dead in the eye (and I hate eye contact) and calmly replied "No, that was last week". The room went dead silent except for the sound of my teacher laughing his ass off. Figured out who just tolerated me, and who wasn't an ass that day, but never heard a peep about my period from anyone in that room for the rest of high school. With the exception of my best friend (who I'm still friends with over a decade later) who could tell I was feeling off and would just check in to make sure it wasn't anything else.

I know the trauma. I was followed a coupke of times and tried harious techniques. Screaming all your lunges is the most effective technique. I screamed him to get out of my way and acted as agressively as I could; but in reality I was scared jecause no one was there. But, when he finally get out, after walking a little, I noticed that people heard me and were witnessing the scene. They didn't say anything, but looked concerned. Not sure they would have stepped in if the things had gone badly, but it taught me that your screams can be heard even if you think you're alone.

I once saw a really nice video about a mother explaining the 3-second-rule she taught her children. basically, what it says is that you only comment on something that a person can change in 3 seconds. if they for example have like a salad leaf sticking in their teeth, that is something they can change in 3 seconds, in which case it’s okay to tell them. if somebody, in your opinion, looks unhealthy, that is clearly something they cannot change in 3 seconds, so don’t speak to them about it. I think that’s something that generally more people should learn. don’t comment on people when it’s not something they can do anything about

I was at a theme park with friends. We stopped to go the toilet. Predictably, those using the ladies took longer than those using the men’s. When we all got out, one of the men (he was a friend of a friend) asked way ‘girls always take so long.’ One of my friends said that there was a que for the ladies so it took us longer to actually reach and use them. Another pointed out that there were almost certainly less facilities in the ladies because we only got toilets - which we had to sit down for - while the men also got urinals. I looked him in the eye and said, “I’m on my period.” He went white as a sheet and told me he didn’t want to know that. I shrugged and pointed out that he had asked.

Another safety tip against scammers: Never use "yes", "yeah", or "ok" when answering the phone or answering probing questions from those on the other end. They usually start recording immediately and delay answering specifically to get those responses. They also ask questions geared towards those answers. If you really want to confound scammers, be EXCESSIVELY formal. "That's correct." "Can you confirm that?" It will drive them CRAZY. I've used it to great success and had the scammer say I was trying to scam him 😂😂😂

The sheer audacity of doing it on PURPOSE, repeatedly, and then getting MAD when there's something in a package you don't like and acting like it's the fault of the person you're stealing from? I can't even put into words how ridiculous and offensive that is. Also yes interference with the mail is a serious crime in America and honestly I'm nervous about even admitting to accidental mail opening, and hoping "sir, I'm a dumbass" is as suitable a defense as it is for tax mistakes.

There have been two incidents when I've accidentally opened somebody's post, both because it came to the wrong place. The first was a company, so I looked at the contents, rewrapped the package, contacted the company, who picked up the wrong package & got the right one to me, & all was well. The second was a personal seller, of stuff I collect. Sometimes I have to order items in twos or threes or small lots to get the thing I want, which gives me spares I don't want as I already have them. With this package I contacted the seller, slipped a spare or two of mine in there as a quick sorry it's late to the other buyer, resealed the package, then posted it myself to the correct address. I was refunded this postage cost & I assume the buyer got the package, extras & all. I kept no package in my home which didn't have my exact name & address on it. I think it's classed as theft here...

I got many comments of "are you ok? You look sick" and "don't eat so much, it makes us uncofortable". But the one thing that really made me stunned was this customer at work, who came up to me and gave me a folder and said that I seem to be needing this. It was a folder on some magic lose weight pill she was selling. Seriously? I, a 163cm tall, 46kg heavy woman, needed to lose weight?!

The weight loss example somewhat falls under this banner, because of how judgemental the customer was.

If you get a lot of mail addressed to other people (like if you live in an apartment with multiple previous residents still getting random mail sent there), they also sell “not at this address, return to sender” stamps (like self inking stamps, not mail stamps, to be clear). You of course don’t have to - writing it works just as well, but if anyone else is like me and has to do it a lot and ends up putting it off and letting mail stack up because it’s tedious, spending the $5 on the stamp can be well worth the time it saves. I try to bring mine down with me when I check the mail - that way the mail that isn’t mine never even makes its way up to my apartment, I just stamp it and put it back in the mailbox right then and there.

She went on over there, asked the people what they were doing, and then yelled and screamed at them until they were sobbing raisins on the ground. My grandmother is a very scary woman and I will never know her truly bad side.

I had the same thing happen, and was ambushed/berated in the break room in front of a coworker. I kept just saying, 'ok', because I was trying to maintain composure, but he kept insisting 'no, not ok!' and ranting about people saying 'ok' and then proceeding to let the same things happen over and over. Something about the hormones, the relentlessness- the UNFAIRNESS of my bodily functions being scrutinized because of OTHER people's malfeasance (he KNEW me to be an excellent worker; I pushed myself way more than that job deserved)- I just cried, and explained that my period and IBS were both acting up. Y'all, I am a stocky former farm girl- I'm not known to be weepy or emotional at all. His whole countenance changed- he did try to save face and mutter a reminder to tell my coworkers if I was going (I HAD, of course, but I was far from in the mood for going through the same thing point by point by then), but he was ashen, and was always SUPER nice to me from then on. Y'all, sometimes it just works to cry at people. But, thinking about where I am now (no longer in the service industry, if you couldn't tell what kind of job that was), I don't think I would cry. I think I would, after asking to go to the bathroom (or calling over and over for relief without answer), I would just stand there until I couldn't hold it anymore. I would just freaking bleed or worse, until containment was breeched, and calmly walk out to call a lawyer. The debate over what minimum wage should be pisses me all the way off- minimum wage workers have to fight for the right to bodily functions, ffs!!!

Lady, there ISN'T a separate bathroom for employees- 'Well, they should be separate!' LADY, DO YOU EXPECT ME TO STAND UP AND PERFORM A REMODEL/MASONRY/PLUMBING RIGHT HERE AND NOW?! I'm not an architect - I didn't build this place, NOR do I own it! My ass is in the wind, and I gotta wipe while being shamed for using 'YOUR' bathroom while making minimum wage?!?!

My neighbours steal packages too. I couldn't confirm it until one day, I came back home after two days of the package having been supposedly delivered to find it in front of my door, ripped open. There were books in there, only in Latin (I study Latin) plus an Egyptian grammar (I study Egyptology). They couldn't have known how expensive these volumes are and I'm glad that they didn't. It's not traumatizing them back but it's still funny to me.

Pausing the video to make this comment real quick. OP absolutely should NOT have let their neighbor get away with stealing and opening their mail. I don't know about other countries, but in the US that is literally a felony. You can get like 5+ years in jail depending on where you live! It is a WAY bigger crime - at least in America - than people think it is, and if you don't press charges and involve the legal system it tells them they can get away with that behavior.

This is something that always had me weirded out. Back in Belgium, I don't remember ever having called someone and they answered saying their name. The usual thing to say when you pick up the phone is "allo?". But now I live in Germany and like everyone says their name when they pick up the phone. I was told never to do that when I was young, so I still don't do, and people have to ask if it's me. Which isn't that easy for them as my name has 2 of these very french nasal sounds (you know, the like of in - on - un - en)

regarding the first one: I have IBS and in 8th grade I had a math teacher who loved to power trip and made it a point of pride to never let students not go to the bathroom. Well, IBS doesn't wait for anyone for any reason. I was also 14 and I didn't give a fuck, hated that teacher, and one day I asked if I could go to the bathroom (the gates of hell were about to open) she said no, I should have went before her class (I would like to point out when were we supposed to go before her class? We had four other classes before hers and we still did the elementary school line up style of switching classes). I said "Well, I gotta shit." And walked out. I mean it was either the toilet or the floor. I was enough of a loser that nobody bullied me about it or made fun of me, or maybe I'm too autistic to notice lmfao.

He asked ‘why don’t they have the normal bathrooms anymore?’ Me being the kind person I am gave the best reason. “So that those who are born with both parts have a safe place and aren’t judged. It’s also for single parents with a child of the opposite gender.” Thankfully he got this look of appreciation on his face at the idea. Not a traumatize you back. But still cool to happen. I’m glad he took the first comment well.

One rambled on and on, not even clarifying if they had the right person, shilling about 'do you have this card, what's the number on it, what do you mean you don't have it, do you at least have this?' I wasted his time patiently and innocently asking what he even meant until about 15 minutes in, he finally asked if I was even Jolene, to which I said 'What? No, she hasn't had this number for years?' And they got mad at me asking why I even let them ramble like that, so I just said 'I'm sorry, you never asked? I thought you knew what you were doing?'

I think you can get better! If you're able to approach jumping spiders, that means that it's something that, given enough time and exposure, you can overcome. Especially since you like spiders- that can give you a push to face your fear! I recommend getting used to handling jumpers and then moving on to an equally docile but more stereotypically 'scary' spider. I don't know where you live but where I live we have these things called spiny orb weavers. They're very small like jumpers, and very docile like them too, but they have a scary appearance compared to jumpers. If you can find them, just being near them would probably help, and then eventually moving on to handling them would help even more. If you're lucky, maybe someday you can have a spider of your own.

When we answer the phone at work we are told to give a fake name, most of us use Fred, because we get a lot of scam calls from people pretending to be our DM. He knows all our names, so knows Fred doesn't work there, and usually just says "Hey, this is *name* can I talk to *manager*, Fred." Customers calling are usually asking what time we close, usually around holidays, or if we have a particular item in stock so they don't care who they're talking to.

Now, every time it happens, I am absolutely bewildered, but hey: it gives me an excuse to ride around the tamer rollercoasters without seeming too out of place.
