30 Stories Of Stupid People Ruining It For Everyone, As Shared In This Online Group Maybe this isnt a single persons fault. But, i feel like for those of us with chronic pain from major accidents (or syndromes or diseases), the people who abused opioid use has made it hard for everyone with legit problems.

I broke my neck, hip, and 20 other bones in a car accident. My drugs are so tightly regulated, that if theres a hang up of even 12 hours, i can run out of meds. And im not even taking heavy pain meds just enough to work. I feel like im the lucky one vs stories i hear of cancer patients, people with longer term issues, or diseases. Between the pill mills and the pharmacies, those with real issues were f****d.

In fact, traditions and precedents play a big role in such stories. After all, if something unpleasant happened once, then it definitely can happen again and then over and over. And if so, it should be prevented. And it is not in vain that they say that every line of the army charter is written in blood - this is absolutely true, just to ensure that one person does not later ruin everything this exact way. And it actually works... or that guy ruins everything in another way. That happens as well, you know.

It's so wild that I never even thought about it before until I started seeing questions about sitting vs standing on BP. And I was a cashier for years (in the US). I think it's part of our "it's a privilege to work" and "you can't just work, it has to also look hard" type of attitude. Sitting down is associated with lazinessness in non office jobs. It would be cool to see it change.

What can I say, after all, we all know one story about two people who ruined everything for literally everyone on Earth. As Paul Anka sang, “there was a story I'm sure you all know, I'm sure you remember and I know you believe - the story of Adam and Eve!” And if the whole of human history, at least according to one of the common versions, began with something like this, what can we expect from the humble and imperfect descendants of Adam and Eve?

“Probably, each of us has a similar story behind us, and sometimes we ourselves act as such a weak link,” says Valery Bolgan, a historian and editor-in-chief of Intent news agency from Ukraine, whom Bored Panda asked for a comment. “In any case, when we are in a hurry to stigmatize the guy who suddenly made everything bad, we need to try to put ourselves in their place. After all, in the end, it is they who often feel the worst of all, desperately trying to overcome such a burden on their soul."

“A classic example can be cited from sports. In 1994, the FIFA soccer World Cup was held in the USA, and it was marked by two dramatic stories. In the match between the Colombian and the USA national teams, the Colombian defender Andres Escobar, by coincidence, sent the ball into his own goal. Colombia lost - and a few weeks later, Escobar was shot dead in his hometown, and with each shot, the attacker hysterically shouted: 'Goal! Goal! Goal!'"

“But in the final match, another tragedy broke out, though not fatal. In the penalty shootout that determined the world champion, the best player on the planet and that tournament, the Italian Roberto Baggio, missed at the decisive moment. He was subjected to devastating criticism, but he managed to cope with nerves - and at the next World Cup, when he went out to shoot a penalty (and this happened several times), he scored every time. Therefore, when we accuse someone of causing us inconvenience - just think, how do they themselves feel at that moment?" Valery ponders.

Turns out a couple of years before I was hired on, they used to give boots. But one guy would take his boots and sell them, then request a replacement, then sell those. He did this about 20 times before anybody caught on because of municipal bureaucracy being slow to notice. When they caught on, they stopped giving out boots to their employees.

30 Stories Of Stupid People Ruining It For Everyone, As Shared In This Online Group This is going to be buried but I have to share it in hopes someone sees this and laughs.

I used to work for state government in Alaska. I was reviewing some department policies to update and I noticed a particular statement in the employee behavioral policy about adhering to basic hygiene (expected) and wearing clothes at work (not expected). I went to my boss to ask him about that and the look on his face told me I was in for a good story.

Our department had satellite offices all over the state and in some very rural, very isolated areas, these were nothing but glorified shacks. Local fire brigade shows up to one of our shacks in middle-of-nowhere to find a department employee standing outside the burnt building, in the nude. In February. Turned out that the guy, who was the only on-site employee, happened to be a nudist. Now, no one can work naked for the state of Alaska. What a bummer. 🥲

These were not those big rubber balls but instead the styrofoam filled balls with kind of a thin layer of plastic so otherwise… harmless. One of the kids thought it would be a good idea to shove a rock into one of the balls and throw it at someone he didn’t like; well he ended up throwing it right into that kids face and broke two of his front teeth.

30 Stories Of Stupid People Ruining It For Everyone, As Shared In This Online Group Had a job where as a dialysis nurse where we added a position to pick up add ons and emergency cases that came in later in the day. In this role we worked noon to midnight which helped us cut down from needing a nurse on call every night to maybe once or twice a week. Whoever took this role didn’t have to take call and had weekends off. We loved rotating through this role and enjoyed taking a break from having to be on call and enjoyed having weekends off.

Then there came the nurse who went out at 7 am instead of noon, and finished at 5 pm. When there was an add-on or an emergency case she wouldn’t answer her phone, which meant which meant everyone had to go back to picking up extra patients and being on call again.

She did this every time it was her turn to go through the rotation so they eliminated the position and we went back to having to be on call all the time.

This one trainee who happend to sit early finished his dinner before the other side of the table even got to start. He stood up, the the DS promptly made everyone else get up too, eaten or not.

This same trainee did the exact same thing the next day, except now it was breakfast, so a few people didnt get dinner OR breakfast.

I'll never forget the nasty s**t they did to his bunk and locker dude. Couldnt really feel bad for him, and you best believe NOBODY stood up early for the rest of BCT.

Edit: Wow this blew up overnight! Im gonna try to answer a couple questions I've read.

What'd they do to his bunk?

They took the used/dirty mop bucket water, pissed in it, and dumped over his bunk and foot locker. This happened on a Sunday morning which is the one day the DS will leave u alone till noon. The perpetrator was at church lol

Was it intentional?

No. The first time was a genuine mistake as it was a brand new rule. I actually watched him the second time. He started to stand and realized his mistake, but the grumpiest DS saw him do that awkward stand-sit movement and that was it for the table. Luckily I wasn't on the table that lost the breakfast, but I still felt no sympathy for him. No dinner + "whatever you can eat out the door" breakfast woulda had me join in too.

Our HR gave us an enormous break on our PTO. All of our time, sick, vacation and personal without expiration, was distributed to us evenly and timely, into one bank. A handful of guys out of 60 treated it as 51 sick days a year. They called in when they saw a difficult task coming. They clocked out early without asking permission.They string multiple days together. They'd leave on vacation and then call in additional days. Staffing became a nightmare. Payroll became hassle. So back to the archaic system we went. On the very first day of the revision the biggest offender called in and told the manager that he was using his last two available days.

In the early 90s we were picked for an experiment for trying out 4-10 hour days a week. The way it worked was that a couple of us would get the weekend plus Monday off. The others would get Friday off, plus the weekend. The next week it switched so now you got Friday plus weekend, and the we got Monday, plus the weekend. The rotation worked so that once a month you would only get the weekend, but the following one you would get Monday AND Friday off, so that was 4 days in a row. We LOVED the schedule, but some a*****e screwed it up by saying she could only schedule doctor's appointments on the Monday or Friday she was scheduled to work, or she'd just call in sick on those days. Because we were a small group, it meant that I had to cover the extra day she wasn't there, so they were forced to pay me overtime, which they hated to do. It was also exhausting for me. So they said," F**K IT!" and returned us to regular 8 hr/5 days a week. All because one idiot tried to game the system.

I got one for you. This guy I used to work with used to listen to podcasts over his airpods all the time. Like ALL the time. Well one day he tried to back the forklift out of the our wearhouse walkin with the mast up and managed to collapse the ceiling. So my first words were, "So Levi, which podcast was it?". No more airpods at work.

The most stupid person is the one who made the decision to make life miserable for everyone. Stupid individuals exist everywhere. To make decisions based on their actions leads to total paralysis of everything.

We used to be allowed to bring our dogs to work....a new girl got hired and complained because she wanted to ALWAYS have her dog there and didn't wanna share time with other people so she went to HR and now guess what.....no one gets to bring their dog anymore.

The kid who was placed in a local authority care home. No one was let out of any council run care home after a certain time and staff could restrain anyone trying to go out. This kid decided to challenge this ruling and won which had a huge impact on the sexual exploitation of young girls by gangs in such places as Rotherham because staff can no longer restrain them.

Supermarkets using covid hoarding as an excuse to up prices by 150%. The covid hoarders who stripped supermarkets and made it so everything is now either band, restricted or cut down.

Reminds me... of a high school thing that used to happen. Used to be a weekend getaway of sorts... very little chaperoning, full on cabins, a large, safe firepit area, nice lake... it was awesome. Activites were like, 'here's information about the wildlife/plantlife. Look and describe." Many of us took advantage of staying up later, playing penny-poker at each other cabins, etc. The teachers who were there didn't mind/didn't care - they expected it. Then ONE YEAR.... this ONE guy decided he'd sneak in something to get high, got high... then whacked off all over the curtains in his cabin. Obviously, the trip never happened again, forever and ever. What REALLY gets me is that it was 'marketed' by the loud kids as 'ha ha, that's so cool' and 'wtf, that was a stupid trip anyhow' ... like 5 people would bleat that. The rest of us just (and future kids) lost out.

For some of these, specifically involving wild animals, I think it's an excellent thing that the freedom got ruined.

Hey how are you? And do you still have the tab to open at 39 posts? It's seems to have gone for me.
