Here's a co - signer horror story. A co - signer helped a business partner get a loan for their new business venture. The business failed miserably, and the partner disappeared. The co - signer was stuck with the loan debt. They had to work extra hours at their own job and cut back on all non - essential expenses just to make the loan payments. It was a very difficult and stressful time for them.
Another horror story involves a co - signer for a mortgage. The primary borrower lost their job due to unforeseen circumstances. The co - signer, who was a friend, now had to cover the mortgage payments alone. They were not financially prepared for this as they had their own expenses. Eventually, they had to sell their own assets to keep up with the mortgage payments, and it almost led to their own financial ruin.
Sure. In one case, a co - signer co - signed for a credit card for their sibling. The sibling maxed out the card on luxury items and then declared bankruptcy. The co - signer was left with the entire debt, which was a huge amount. It took them years to pay it off and it severely restricted their own financial freedom during that time.
One horror story is when a co - signer thought they were just helping a friend get a small loan for a car. But the friend lost their job soon after and stopped making payments. The lender then went after the co - signer for the full amount. The co - signer had to pay thousands of dollars they hadn't expected and it damaged their credit too.
Sure. There was a time when a family co - slept and the baby was allergic to the parent's perfume. The parent didn't realize it and during the night, the baby had a severe allergic reaction while co - sleeping. Another horror story is that during co - sleeping, a small object like a hairpin was on the bed and the baby put it in its mouth while the parents were asleep. In one more case, a family co - slept and the baby got too hot because of the body heat of the parents and became dehydrated during the night.
There was this co - worker who spread false rumors about me. She told everyone that I was going to get fired soon because I made a big mistake. But it was all a lie. It really affected my relationship with other co - workers for a while. I had to work hard to prove that it wasn't true and regain their trust.
I once had a co angler who smoked a lot. He would flick his cigarette butts into the water carelessly. Not only was it bad for the environment, but it also seemed to spook the fish. We hardly caught anything that day because of his inconsiderate behavior.
In an industrial scenario, a CO2 laser used for engraving metal parts had its cooling system malfunction. Without proper cooling, the laser overheated. This not only made the engraving inaccurate but also caused the laser to emit strange fumes. These fumes were potentially harmful to the workers in the area, and they had to stop all operations until the issue was resolved and the air was cleared.
Sure. There are co op boards that mismanage the finances. They might increase the maintenance fees without any proper explanation or accounting for where the money is going. One case was where the fees went up by 30% in a year, but there were no visible improvements in the building.
There was this one time when a customer of Candid Co had an issue with their payment. They were charged twice for the same item. When they reached out to the company's customer service, they were put on hold for a very long time. And when they finally got to talk to someone, the representative was not very helpful. They just kept saying they would look into it but nothing was done for a long time. This made the customer very angry and they decided not to use Candid Co again.
Sure. There was a time when a hippo attacked a tourist who was trying to take a selfie too close to it. The hippo's massive jaws opened wide, and the tourist was lucky to escape with only minor injuries. Hippos can move surprisingly fast on land for their size.
Yes. There have been reports of saniderm sticking too tightly to the tattoo. This makes it extremely difficult to remove without causing damage to the tattoo itself. The ink may smudge or parts of the tattoo may get removed along with the saniderm.
Sure. There was a call where the 911 operator heard gunshots in the background. The caller was whispering and could barely talk. The operator had to strain to hear and figure out the location. It was really scary as the operator didn't know if the shooter would harm the caller at any moment.
