What's funny on a normal day is infuriating when you are overworked.

Life is so unpredictable, no matter how boring we feel it is. Every time you think you've got something worked out, a new challenge arises, forcing you to start from scratch.

Hey, but that's what makes it interesting, right? And Reddit makes it even more interesting.

There is a reason why Am I The A-hole and other Reddit topics captivate us so much. The articles on this site provide us the chance to learn about other people's issues and consider how we would respond if we were in their position.

In this instance, we stumbled upon a post that a disgruntled, hungry, and overburdened nurse had written following a particularly long and difficult night with her BF. They are planning to move in together, and her BF already spends most of the time at her place.

That suits her because she works long shifts and he helps her out with grocery shopping. That worked pretty well until recently.

But on that particular night, her boyfriend had to work two double shifts at his restaurant and OP had to work a 14-hour shift at the hospital. He brought food for the two of them, but his dog tricked them and ate OP's food.

Needless to say, she wasn't happy. But what made things even worse was her boyfriend's reaction.

Read the story and take notes:

Our OP is a nurse and she works really long shifts. She is dating Chris and they started talking about moving in together. The arrangement was - BF handles the food.

OP got home rally late, and she was looking forward to that chicken and rice her BF had prepared for her. But his dog wanted that food more. He tricked them and got the food, initiating a reaction from both of them. However, they were not the same. Bf thought it was hilarious, so OP kicked him and his dog out.

Redditors can see both parties' points of view.

There is no clear A-hole here. Both parties are wrong and right at the same time.

Her BF should've trained his dog and he should've trained her dog.

Some Redditors were harsh on the BF

He should've handled the situation differently.

The same action can be funny on a normal day and infuriating after a long shift.

This Redditor gave OP some good advice:

This is a very good piece of advice. Keep food in your house, just in case.

It seems clear from the beginning of this article that OP is carrying the bigger burden in this relationship. OP threw the boyfriend and his dog out of the house because she was too exhausted and had nothing to eat.

And this is clear. However, this could be overreacting.

It wasn't such a big deal. And it is unbelievable that she didn't have anything else to eat in the house.

Maybe her BF could have fixed something. But she didn't give him a chance.

And that's what she did wrong. She threw him out in the middle of the night.
