UPS Driver Suicide

Written by ThreadOfTheDay.com on December 9, 2008 in: workplace | Tags: , , , , , ,

Today’s thread is very sad.

BrownCafe.com has a forum for UPS workers to discuss their jobs. The wife of one member logged into his account to announce to other members that her husband was fired on Friday, November 14th, 2008, then killed himself on Monday, November 17th.

She goes into more details on post #63.

Please pray for Janice and her family during these trying times.

Dear Restaurant Patron

The waitresses of BitterWaitress.net vent their frustrations in this thread.

They are writing nasty letters to the annoying customers and their headings aren’t quite as nice as my title for this post.

Too bad the objects of their affection will never see these letters.

Don’t forget to tip your waitress!

Captain Buttonpusher, You Are Cleared For Takeoff

Written by ThreadOfTheDay.com on April 8, 2008 in: workplace | Tags:

Having an annoying co-worker isn’t a problem confined only to ground based jobs.

In this thread at a pilot forum, a First Officer vents his frustration on a type of Captain that bugs him, one that really pushes his buttons, literally. This discussion actually turns a little heated when a couple captains chime in.

I guess the friendly skies can’t always be friendly.
