I delivered a truckload of rats to a transfer station

I’m a roll-off garbage truck driver. The transfer station at my yard only handles cardboard, but people hide garbage underneath it. The station separates the garbage and puts it into a 40-yard bin. The place has a massive rat problem. I actually hate dumping even cardboard there because there are rats running everywhere. And these aren’t little rats, they’re fucking huge. I rarely ever dump that 40-yard bin. Today, the guy loaded it onto my truck, I tarped it and headed to another transfer station. On the highway, I look in my mirror and see the two cars behind me swerving all over the road. Then I realize rats are jumping out of my bin and onto the highway. It was literally a scene straight out of a fucking movie. Rats flying out of the bin, cars swerving everywhere, and me sitting there wondering what the hell I had just unleashed. I get to the other transfer station and now I have to open the doors. I was fucking pissing myself. I smack the doors open and sprint back to my truck. L...

I got stuck at a customer’s place during the 2025 blizzard and somehow spent two nights with her

During the 2026 Rhode Island blizzard, I was working at a convenience store. We were getting ready to close early because the weather was getting ridiculous. There was this woman who used to come into the store pretty often. We’d talked before, so we knew each other a little, but it wasn’t like we were dating or anything. She came in right before we closed. We started talking about the storm, and she told me the travel ban was about to go into effect. Then she randomly invited me to stay at her place because she didn’t want me trying to drive home once the ban started. I was like, “Uh… okay.” So I went. Probably not the most normal decision I’ve ever made, but whatever. 😂 Once I got there, I realized she drank a lot. Like, I knew she drank before, but I didn’t realize how much until I was actually there. The funny thing is, though, she was actually really cool. We got along really well. We were talking, laughing, joking around, just having a good time. Eventually it got late and we e...

Well...that's over now.

Just had the funeral service for my grandmother the other day, and boy was it hard to keep a straight face. We had friends, family and family friends attend. The service didn't start until the first song ended, and I already shed some tears. The song they played was "Angel" by Sarah McLachlan, and a lot of the attendees, including myself and my family started crying. Then we had a couple of people up to give tribute speeches, and once they ended, the celebrant read out the poem that my grandfather wrote for her and once that was done, they ended the service with "Fly High" by Dolly Parton. As the lefthand side of the room left for the food hall, I watched as the curtain closed on my grandmother's coffin submitted by /u/OPAutobot5 [link] [comments]

Doctors thought I was in end stage kidney failure today

On Monday I went to the clinic to get medication refills and a check up. I had iron deficiency a few months ago so I asked for bloodwork to check up on that. Today, Friday. I had a dermatologist appointment because i have eczema. I go sit in the waiting room and they call me into the assessment room, they do their routine: checking blood pressure, getting my weight, etc. They tell me to come back to the assessment room once im done with my appointment because my bloodwork came back abnormal. I get my dermatologist appointment done, nothing out of the ordinary and i go back to the assessment room. I assumed my iron deficiency was back so I wasn’t worried but they tell me to sit in the waiting room until a room is available for me. A little odd but okay. Eventually they place me in a clinic room and I continue waiting. The doctor comes in after 25 minutes but his demeanour was somber and tense. I still didn’t think anything of it, I assumed he just acts like that but suddenly he looks ...

My senior coworker kept calling me at 9 PM, so I called him at 2 AM

I have a senior coworker who’s also a professor, and he has this habit of calling me after work, usually around 9 or 10 PM. Sometimes it’s actually work-related, sometimes he just wants to talk about upcoming activities. Last night, he called me again around 9 PM. I didn’t answer. He then sent me the schedule for the upcoming palaro and added, “Call me when you’re available.” Something about that message annoyed me so much that I decided to be petty. I waited until 2 AM and called him. He answered. He was absolutely pissed. He told me I was being disrespectful of other people’s time and that I had no business calling someone at 2 in the morning. I apologized and told him I understood. Meanwhile, I was trying so hard not to laugh because for once, he was the one getting an unreasonable work call. I may have won the battle, but I have a feeling I just lost next semester’s schedule. submitted by /u/hottest_chickkk [link] [comments]

life works in weird ways sometimes

My dad had a crush on a girl back in school in Pakistan in the 90s. He liked her but was too shy to approach her. Then one day he finally decided he was going to talk to her, but before he could, one of his friends confessed to her. They started hanging out, and that was pretty much the end of my dad's chances. He was heartbroken, and in 1996 he left Pakistan to study in Germany and start a new life. In 1998, he met my mom. They eventually moved to the US in 2002, got married, and had me and my brother. Fast forward to 2023, my parents decided to separate. Me and my brother were okay with it, and life just continued. Then something completely unexpected happened. My dad was in Pakistan when he developed a heart problem and went to see a doctor. The doctor turned out to be the same girl he had a crush on in school. They recognized each other. This woman had obviously lived a whole life too. She had been married, had two kids, and eventually divorced after an abusive marriage. My da...
