* In ''VideoGame/GenshinImpact'', this is one of Mondstadt's problems as a consequence of being a relatively peaceful nation where the Anemo Archon has a hands-off approach to the nation. Indeed, the people there have ''zero'' problems openly acting on their prejudice without consequences to themselves.

** The nation of Mondstadt is (in)famous for having alcohol as their favorite past-time and culture, which results in a lot of them being raving drunkards. Thoma is an exception; he cannot handle alcohol very well and refrains himself from partaking it out of health concerns. Unfortunately, this leads to him bemoaning his status as a Mondstader and is worried that, should the people from his home-country ever found out that he has very low alcohol tolerance and doesn't drink, they will brand him as a NoTrueScotsman for not being a drinker.
** The Adventurers Guild in Mondstadt (bar Cyrus, Jack, [[spoiler:and, once she joins the guild, Anna]]) have little tolerance for their quirkier members of the group and have no qualms ostracizing them, these quirky members are Fischl and Bennet. The former is a {{Chuunibyou}} who believes herself to be the princess of a fallen kingdom of Immernachtreich who wields extraordinary powers and, despite her prowess as the Guild's investigator, she is seen as a joke by her peers with only Bennet believing in her story. And as for the latter, he is the leader of his own group called "Benny's Adventure Team" (consisting of Royce, Heckler, and Jack) who is born with an incredible bad luck that brings [[TheJinx misfortune to everyone around him]] whenever he goes (regardless of intentions). His luck is so bad that his own party members secretly left him, leaving the boy as the sole member of the group. Of the three members that left Bennet, only Jack retains a good relationship with him.

** Eula, on account of coming from the most reviled Lawrence Clan, is discriminated on a daily basis by the general population of Mondstadt and is banned from all stores. This forces her to survive on wild game despite being very wealthy herself. Even with Eula joining the Knights of Favonius, this resulted in protests from civilians who are outraged at a hated clan member joining a heroic peacekeeping force. Despite de-escalating tensions, thanks to Amber and Jean's efforts, the people (bar Sara and Joel) by large still distrust her. On a minor note, this resulted in one of the Favonian Knights (Lawrence) being given an inquisitive glare for having the namesake of a hated clan despite having ''zero'' connections to them at all.

* The ''[[Literature/TheStrangerTimes Stranger Times]]'' office is a hellacious place to work. The editor is verbally abusive and arguments between employees escalate to physical violence with alarming frequency. The former assistant editor resigned by headbutting her boss, the office manager may wield a sledgehammer when pushed to her limits, and the editor accidentally shoots himself in the foot. And when one of the regular columnists threatens to throw himself off the roof? Well, that's just a regular Monday!

* The premise of ''WesternAnimation/{{Archer}}'', ISIS is a spy organization with incompetent employees. Pam, head of Human Resources, is a FatIdiot, [[AnythingThatMoves makes passes at everyone]], and is tremendous gossip who in six seasons [[ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything has never been shown doing any kind of H.R. work]]. Nothing stops the rampant sexual harassment, gunfire wounds and other inter-office debacles, such as Archer making Pam pee in fear. The fact that nearly everyone at ISIS is an asshole and/or deranged in some way possily balances it somewhat.
