Because of that initial fee, it put their account further into the negative and every subsequent small transaction over the next few days led to more $35 fees, totaling over $200 in fees in just a week.

One horror story could be a co - worker who constantly steals other people's ideas. For example, in a marketing team, an employee spends hours coming up with a great campaign idea.

This can create a toxic work environment and make the victim feel undervalued.
