15 Coworker Conflicts That Might Be Messy Enough for Reality TV

We’ve all met that one person—the kind who acts like the world revolves around them. Whether it’s snapping at waiters, cutting lines, or treating strangers like personal assistants, some folks seem to think basic manners are optional. These stories, shared by real people online, prove that entitlement truly knows no bounds.
I was sipping coffee on my porch when my neighbor’s dog waddled over and took a massive dump right on the edge of my driveway. She saw it happen — we made direct eye contact. I waited.
She shrugged.
“You gonna pick that up?” I called out.
She smiled like I was the crazy one and said, “It’s biodegradable!” Then just walked off.
I was floored. The audacity was Olympic-level.
The next morning, I wake up to barking. Nonstop. Her dog? Missing. Guess where we found it?
In my fenced backyard. Sitting next to the same exact poop pile — which I never cleaned either.
She knocked on my door, panicked. I smiled, “Don’t worry. He’s biodegradable.”
I was at the airport charging my phone at one of those public outlets when a woman in her 40s sat beside me, yanked my charger out of the wall, and plugged in her iPad.
I stared at her in disbelief. She said, “Mine’s at 2%. Yours looks fine.”
Then she pulled out a neck pillow and closed her eyes.
My phone was at 3%.
Used to wait tables. One woman came in already angry — snapped her fingers, sent food back for no reason, tipped $0, and wrote: “Try smiling more.”
So I did. Then flipped the receipt and wrote: “Try tipping more.”
She saw it. Said nothing. Left in silence. No regrets.
One thing’s for sure—next time you run into someone like this, at least you’ll know you’re not alone.
