I love that a group of guys threw OP a baby shower! That's incredibly sweet! It reminds me of my old job, except there weren't any guys in my department. I was newly engaged. One of the girls in my department took it upon herself to throw me a Bachelorette party at her home. She bought snacks and drinks, made phallic shaped rice Krispy treats, and baked a cake. The other girls in the department came and we drank and played Cards Against Humanity and laughed for hours! It made me cry, because I didn't expect it at all, and no one who wasn't family had ever planned anything like that for me before. It's still one of my fondest memories seven years later.😊
This has to probably be one of the most wholesome stories ever.
I love how sweet your coworkers were and that shower sounds awesome! Don’t know what I love more, cards against humanity (great game) or the phallic Rice Krispies treats!😂🤣😂
hehehe dildo cakes. i hate and love my mind sometimes.
First story. The fact that those guys throwing her a wonderful baby shower just shows how awesome they are. That is real love and respect to do that for her. I'll bet the moods of everyone that had to deal with the Karen was greatly increased.
I can't believe the last story. Didn't she count the fish while they being placed in the container? She ended up only hurting herself for being a Karen. Stupid is as stupid does.
I mean, I don't know about real love and respect, but definitely real appreciation.
Honestly I am just impressed she didn't double down on being a Karen, and actually took the L and left.
Story 4: I don't think people that write stuff like that are aware of people that would gladly take that advice just to avoid that behavior.
Karen: "I wish I could slap the sh*t out of you."
OP: "Peace, was *never* an option."
Peace is NEVER an option when it comes to pregnant women...
Karen: "Why do I hear boss music?"
@ghostoftime1 God Of War Boss music suits more imo
Op like the alien in : Independence Day = Peace? No peace.
You got to be a special type of evil to bully an employee but threatening to slap one who's also pregnant is just horrible
@Purple Citrine as long as she's fired and not able to touch you that is good people are insane so how's the pregnancy going or did you give birth already?
@Purple Citrine fax and good luck with the second pregnancy
On my final day, I had a brief conversation with one of my colleagues, who had repeatedly bragged that he had raped a sexually trafficked hooker while he was on leave in Germany. I informed him that most women he had met wanted him dead. Also, I reminded him that I had the time and resources and motivation to hunt him down and remove his pelvis, and reminded him of his address. (I am male, which is why he disclosed his atrocity.) No, of course I didn't follow up.
@Purple Citrine yay! Congragtulations, and I also agree that no one should ever threaten to physically assault anyone, let alone someone who is heavily pregnant
@Purple Citrine you’re very welcome😁
While the “brewing piss” analogy is pretty good; my favorite is “who ever stirs up S#!t has to lick the spoon”
That's good
My husband: polity goes over chores for shift with coworkers
Coworkers: complain about my husband telling them what to do to the idiot boss.
Husband quits talking to coworkers.
Coworkers complain about him not talking to them....
Idiot boss yells at my husband.
That place was toxic af..... I was glad when he left.
One manager I had wouldn't show me what to do properly. But I would get in trouble if I
- did it wrong
- disturbed her to ask for help
- didn't do it
- asked someone else for help
She either expected you to be a mind reader or already know what to do.
the solution is clearly to go "Okay you don't want to train me? Then I can't work here."
I've seen a reddit story identical to yours before😅. Sorry you had to go through that
@@metademetra legally they are required to give training
I have a manger similar, she lectures us to keep the counter clear but to do so would mean customers would wait, but everyone knows that product recovery (putting things back on shelves comes first). Because of short staffing, she has been closing manager despite working mornings since I've worked there. She doesn't seem to get how it works. I spent a 5 hour shift basically just putting things away and helping a few customers here and there, then took garbage back. The next day she really laid into us about the counter, so I wrote a letter to my assistant store manager and store manager. We don't have much respect for her, and we warn the new people about her tone and to ignore half of what she says.
Boss: *lies about shutting down to scare employees
OP: “Breaking News: your scare tactics end now!”
Pregnant or not, lady or man- you don't assult anyone, unless you want to get sued.
Yeah she legit said she wished she could slap the crap out of op yikes
@@Mistfall254 At that point, get the police involved. File a for a restraining order, if you're still working with that person, and make it a police matter. HR will happily change their tune.
Also, go to the state labor board and file a complaint. Document everything in writing. Save e-mails, save voice mails, etc. Get a lawyer and sue for creating a hostile work environment.
Story 6: Man, don't you hate when you have someone in power that would gladly retaliate every single time someone complained about them? Glad that OP called their bluff in the most humiliating way I can think of
It’s also a great reminder to workers who are happy to be cogs - be a coward all you want, but stfu when someone else decided to take the stand you should have long ago.
@@BunnyQueen97 exactly. If they want to be a bystander, keep being a bystander.
And this boys ad girls is why you should never be hesitant to go public.
even so..,
bystanders let things happen to you..,
sometimes they got to feel the sting too..,
just like the neutral officers who don't shoot, tackle, arrest their coworkers when they blatantly do something illegal in front of them..,
@@bxnaxmxxnaxx1914 This, inactions have consequences too.
My favorite union grievance as a civil servant location was this. We had about 3 or 4 supervisors and a new work condition was verbally given without a written background and explanation. So, each of the supervisors had their own take on that. One especially would flip every 15 minutes on what it meant.
My informal grievance was submitted asking only for the policy be written down into a coherent and available document.
After a month if an informal grievance isn’t dealt with it went up to the regional manager as a formal grievance.
So, I get a call from the regional manager to ask how we could resolve this grievance. I stated that I wanted the policy to be published as a clear document. He then asked, “Your version of it.” No, I stated, theirs. There was a pause on the phone call (guessing that a silent WTF! Went off in his mind). He said he would get right on it and it was done.
This regional manager was a great guy and I never had problems with him, and one occasion he helped me do maintenance on a machine while at our office without being asked. One last thing, our unit manager lost his yearly bonus, as that was automatic if a grievance went formal.
I just got tired of the stupidity of local supervisors.
3:54 that's really more of a stereotype, as the whole purpose of a baby shower is to celebrate someone's late pregnancy and expecting soon, it's for people laugh, drink and give gifts and supplies to help the parents get a head start in life
That baby shower sounds like it would have been way more fun than the usual ones.
Wonder if she got baby's first tool kit there! lol JK
I honestly think men should host more baby showers!! It sounds so fun!
My mom and dad were on firefighter crews when they were expecting and I hear my mom’s Hotshot crew threw her a baby shower!!!
I've never been to a baby shower that didn't have at least a few men, but I'm only 25 so I think it might be a stereotype from the past.
@@slimecorn Ikr. At least where I live baby showers are kind of a "family party" so uncles and male cousins are involved too. Not to mention the soon to be grandparents.

Lesson about being given something extra: Either be kind and generous and say that you might've gotten a bit extra, or be grateful that you got more than what you asked and paid for. It's like winning an extra chicken nugget in a 10 nugget box on macdonalds and being given an onion ring in your fries.
I read a posting about a guy who worked at McDonalds. His manager always called for the employees to give 110%. So this guy always put 11 chicken nuggets in the box. He gave 110%.🤣
I worked at McDonald's for almost a year in the grill, I'd always give out that extra nugget, not only did it prevent any complaints about too little nuggets, which my manager would always punish us for, but it also meant we went through them faster. Not many people are aware that all McDonald's cooked food is kept in a heating tray on the line, food sits there for ages until we sell it, so I'd make it a point to sell as many nugs as I could and dump any food that was more than an hour old. It's just gross at that point, and I can't eat any meat from McDonald's anymore because I know how long it's been sitting. Sorry if I ruined McDs for anyone with this information
The post office is completely indifferent to your frustrated complaints about nonsense, so long as the mail is delivered in a timely fashion and in one piece they did their job and they did it well.
Also 3 minutes for 2 things of mail is VERY fast for a post office. One I went to took 15 minutes for a medium sized package that was sent to my PO box, and was delivered that day. Im glad that boss took the side of his employee without hesitation
@@DeathProductions200 one time I went to get a couple packages from my post office and the lady at the front desk went in back and looked around for like 20 minutes because she didn’t want to listen to me when I told her that they were on the desk right behind her. They were very distinctly packaged, and it was unlikely that someone else ordered the exact number of packages I did and had to pick them up, all from the same company. Anyway, she came back and looked at the desk and went “oh! Here they are!” And handed them to me as if I hadn’t told her just that, 20 minutes ago.
@@themadranter5229 I did say timely, I just didn't specify timely for who.
I have general beef with the post office. They marked my $100 custom Nintendo DS Lite as delivered so I went to go check my mail box and it wasn't there. I thought it was probably a bit late so I waited 30 minutes and even saw the van drive away and it still wasn't there so I called the post office to see what happened. I was given thd runaround for am hour, just trying to find out what happened and no one could tell me anything. I waa honestly pissed off because one of the posg office employees were thd last to handle the DS and with the fact that they were having switch between the customer service number and my local post office
The last story reminds me of something that happened a couple weeks ago at my job. Currently I work at a grocery store as a cashier, and part of my job includes weighing and ringing up produce (as well as some fish and shrimp). One night, a guy goes through my lane with multiple things of produce and a bag of shrimp. I personally take pride in how fast I can run through people's transactions, so in my usual manner, I speed through ringing everything up. But after I take care of the shrimp, he pulls it back out and tells me to weigh it again because it was "supposed to be 2lbs, not 3." I roll my eyes at this and I try to tell him that that's what came up when I weighed it. But he insists.
So I take the bag back and put it on the scale, and I start trying to show him it was that weight. But wouldn't you believe it, I was wrong! I tell him, "I'm so sorry, it looks like something happened with my scale earlier, I'll go ahead and fix it."
The shrimp, without anything else added to it, was actually 3.8lbs, not 3.2 as I originally weighed it. I make sure to leave the shrimp on the scale and show him with the sweetest lil eye crinkles I can muster since surely he is unable to see the grossly sweet smile under my mask. He narrows his eyes at the screen and goes "wait, why is it more expensive now??" clearly upset at how I fixed my mistake.
I let him know that something must have gone wrong the first time I rang the shrimp through and that this was the actual price-- that I was sorry for the inconvenience, as I put the shrimp back in a grocery bag and handed it back to him. (He wasn't too happy about this, I wonder why?)
Honestly, I still have no clear idea why it initially rang up less expensive, I was probably going too fast for my scale to properly keep up. But if I ever see that man again, I'll be sure to properly weigh his shrimp on the first go!
i would say, you weight it, before it was fully set. A scale needs some time to adjust to a weight. As more weight, as longer it takes.
Malicious compliance is so satisfying in giving them exactly what they wanted!
I will live by these words: "It takes more effort to be mean than kind. A little Kindness can go a long way." FFS, just be nice. It isn't hard and it is quite rewarding as well as can get you more than bitching does.
Sadly most people will never understand that.
These videos keep me sane at work, thanks for all your hard work Rslash!
When my husband worked at Carstar a lady in the office was pregnant so they threw her a baby shower. Thankfully the men were married fathers so the wives made sure they gave decent gifts. 😂
That's lovely.
Why aren't men traditionally invited to baby showers ?Some men are great with baby stuff ,I know that my brother is.
That's so precious 💕
Lol I bet that was what happened with OP as well!
@@Dimensionalalteration I’m sure men often are invited and go to baby showers. But gift giving and commiserating about babies has pretty much always been seen as “feminine”, it’s something “the women” sit around and do.
Why is it ‘the wives making sure they give decent gifts’ and not ‘the men have children and knew what babies needed’
I remember when I was in a union for a supermarket.
In my country, we have 2 supermarket chains. One day I was in the rival supermarkets store to buy some cigarettes and the guy in front of me was chewing this young girl out. Older guy, mid 40s, business suit, thought he shit didn't stink.
I pipe up " hey mate, dont fucking talk to her like that. Apologise now". I should state that I am an ex pro wrestler and played rugby all through school, its fair to say im big, solid and intimidating. He turns around to me and weakly asks " who are you?" And I say " im in the union mate and you don't disrespect service workers like that. I dont give a shit about this supermarket, I work for rival supermarket so dont bother getting the manager. Now are you going to apologise or so we need to discuss this further outside?" He meekly apologises and runs away. The girl thanks me and I assure her that im also on that side of the counter and it felt great to finally tell an arsehole customer off". She admitted that it was glorious to see this inflatable big man be cut down to size when an actual big man fronts up.... yeah, I'm not some shitkicker office worker below you and kissing your arse- you forgot that people only fear you are work, in public, you are my birch, if I so desire....... rest assure I only use my powers for good lol
in stories where the people demand products be re-counted/re-weigher/re-measured etc. and end up getting less, i always wonder if they're just a-hole pessimists or if they've genuenily been swindled by vendors in the past
I assumed she was just greedy and wanted even MORE free bait. Some people just don't know when they are well off!
@@fdm2155 dunno. i remember my gran would make note of all the prices in the small local shop she went to and actually calculate how much her groceries would cost before going in, cuz the shop people had tried to over-charge her multiple times (it was the only shop that was close enough for her to get to, that's why she kept going). so i sometimes do wonder if these people are just so used to being ripped off that they just assume all shop-keepers wil try to do that
@@zilesis1 there's lots of potential reasons why people do this and we'll never truly know their motivations unless we can read their minds. But it is fun to wonder.
they are chosing beggars. I think in a lot of cases the vendors just put some extra stuff in. However as they treat people like shit, those people have enough of it and if the vendors know, they already gave way to much away, they are happily adjust it to the exact amount.
@@catman64k i have literally never met a vendor in my life that would put extra for you (maybe i just live in a sucky place). it's either exactly on the dot, or they short you
“I wish I could slap the shit out of you,” made me CACKLE, I would have turned around and embarrassed her so publicly before getting her fired 😂 what a wild thing to say in a professional environment.
I love malicious compliance stories!
Ok coming from a postal worker myself: never EVER fuck with postal employees, ESPECIALLY the unionized ones at the USPS. These people literally show up for work once a year and STILL the union will prevent you from getting fired. What makes you think they won't fuck with your mail too if you piss them off enough?
Depends on how bad the fucking with the mail is. We had a carrier out here terminated for throwing full trays of dps into the sewers
I swear the charity story was from my town. We had a lady running a charity that helped the homeless and addicted. She likely was on burn out but she got so nasty. I watched her chew out an employee for missing a big play item when she checked someone out. It was a $3.00 or $5.00 item and she was chewing this girl a new anal opening in front of the rest of us waiting to check out.
Finally a customer intervenes and gently says, “It isn’t like you paid for the item in the first place.” It was a charity thrift shop. Al goods were donated. The manager goes off even more and tells the lady to “Get Out!” The nice lady was stunned! I who should also have said something but was still embarrassed for the sales girl getting reamed and now this lady just stood staring. She finally verbally kicked the nice lady out and that was that.
She left the room and I finished checking out and reassuring the poor clerk that what she did was make a simple mistake and need not feel so bad. I also told her that her manager chewing her out in front of everyone was just plain wrong. I felt bad for not having said more!
Not too long after this a different charity absorbed the older charity and took over the good work they did. I was so glad. I would occasionally see the former manager at church functions in the community and wonder how she could have been so unhinged in front of the public. Those of us who shopped there were a mix of well off all the way to dirt poor and the lady she threw out was well off and likely someone who spent a lot on the higher end collectible donated items and likely would have donated her self. Nothing like throwing out and yelling at the people who support your charity.
I worked for a newsagent chain in Scotland many years ago. My job was as a relief manager, taking the place of managers on holiday, off sick, that kind of thing. The very first thing I learned was to leave the staff alone to get on with their jobs, come to me if there were any issues, and decend like the wrath of god on anyone that abused my staff. I despise bully managers. I also have zero tolerance for Karens and Darrens.
Story 1: A baby shower given by real men.
When my husband and I were getting married, his male co-workers threw him a groom's shower in 1981. Our first child was born in 1982 and his co-workers threw him a baby shower. After each shower he came home all excited and was actually glowing. Times are always changing and each generation leaves their mark. I would love to see men being more included in these types of celebrations. I have been to a few showers that included both men and women and those showers were a blast. The men were so excited to be included and get cake.
All-women baby showers are so tedious!
if that guy thinks three minutes is a long time, I feel bad for his partner
😂 good one.
I remember a story from a friend. A neighbor was offended at the American flag flying high above his property and told him he couldn't have the flagpole over a certain height, so he bought a flagpole of the maximum height he was allowed... and then built a mound under the spot to make up the difference in height.
Story 1: oddly at least in my country, I've seen baby showers turn into this bigger party events where everyone is invited! No longer the small all women presents thing, but as if it were a birthday or a crisening (or whatever that's called) or smth, I was surprised but it seems its pretty common over here now
Well that title sounds like a lawsuit in the making
Or a visit to the ER if you do that in front of the wrong person.
@@stoopingfalcon891 or TO the wrong person 😂
@@YesIlikebananasSo That too! 😂
Listening to these while I get ready is therapeutic LOL
Lol so years ago when I was in the Marine Corps, one of the guys' wife was having a baby. So they invited everyone from the (all male) shop to their baby shower. Everyone brought diapers as a gift, because that's what you bring to a baby shower, right? Anyway she had two of her friends there (who were not mad about being surrounded by Marines), we had a keg, beer pong, a BBQ, shit tons of liquor, and a good time was had by all.
That's so messed up telling someone to slap someone who's pregnant
Its messed up to tell someone who that who actually did nothing to you
@@squirrel670 that is messed up
That last story reminds me of something that happened yesterday at work. My job runs a service where you're able to trade in certain devices for credit, but an employee needs to appraise it and enter in their information into the system, to get you an estimate of credit.
Some guy comes in and hands me a large pretty good quality laptop. I give it a once over and say It looks like it's good quality, and mark that in the system. Giving them over 100$ I credit; my job requires that I look for a serial number on the device to enter in and as I'm looking I notice damage I didn't see before, I remark oh this and said "usually that would take the estimate down but-"
"So you didn't do the appraisal right, you shouldn't work in cars that would really cost you there" the guy interrupted me to say this. As if I didn't have full power to mark it down as broken and give him nothing.
Well now I'm fully invested in fixing the mistake and I also notice a screen issue, the device was touch screen, but would mess up and get glichy every time I would touch the screen. Bingo
I explain to him that we really wouldn't be able to accept the device under the circumstances that we itwas broken and has usability issues, but we're willing to be fair and mark it a little higher give him something.
He starting whining about losing some of the credit (it went down to 50) but I reminded him that the only other option was nothing
Be went home with 50 dollars
Good morning rslash. Thanks for the stories. Always appreciate you entertaining us. Have a great day
I feel bad for that guys wife if he thinks 3 minutes is *forever*
Love the quote.
"Let those who brew the piss, drink it".
Hard for me to pity the pregnant woman that responds to her boss with "yeah, whatever, I'll get to it in a minute" and resumes her conversation.
Love listening RSLASH every day.
11:30 yeah, as if constant harrassment would result in less complaints about you... smart move Karen, smart move.
The last story sits with me so much!
I work a pet store and have to count feeder fish and crickets. You try to be nice if a few extra slip in and not worry about fishing them backnout and the customers usually don't care.
However once in a blue moon you get that 1 entitled customer who swears you shorted them on their 30 crickets or 20 goldfish. Count them out loud and the look of shock when you put the extra back, either they get embarrassed, shocked, but once in awhile pissed off and they say they deserve those extra few for wasting their precious time. Nah you wasted MY time over being a snob wanting 15 cent bugs and fish for free.
Love listening in the morning before I go to class
Thanks for the daily grind 💪 Rslash
I can feel a little for the girl in the post office story but not much. I work as a carrier for the post office, way more walking and lifting than clerks and I had two broken twos and never once took a day off or let it impede my work. She didn’t even have a broken toe and acts like she is incapacitated, ridiculous.
“Those who brewed the piss drink it”
I’m so stealing that lmao
I was an In and Out Burger in Prescott, AZ (Happened back in 2007). Standing in line, a Karen wanted to see a manager because she was given a Double-Double ($7.89) instead of a regular cheeseburger ($6.69) (only difference is two patties vs one patty), she also got a large fry. She was SO outraged.
Like, ma'am, you got *more* for less money. I will never understand people who will complain, specifically about fast food.
My ex had a property with a tight 10 foot fence. The neighborhood Karen complained about it and it went to council. New rule, no fences over X height can be built. Karen runs over with a grin on her face as ex is getting out of the car.Ex says "I hear they made a rule about the height of fences". Karen is grinning ear to ear. "Thank you, Karen. My fence is grandfathered in. You helped make the property more valuable. The fence gets to stay and I will get more on resale. You're an angel."
Only in USA is it considered a hen party. In most Latin countries its a big party with many generations of family to celebrate the newest member.
i'm in the U.S. and i have never heard of it being women-only. i think rSlash is just confused, because that has never been the case in my lifetime.
The only baby shower I recall going to involved basically the whole family, men included. At that point, the gender wasn’t known and we all guessed the gender and birthdate of the baby. I got the gender right and was only a day off with the birthdate.
One of the many crappy things about waking up early is that I have nothing to listen to. I’ve been waiting all morning for this
I think the guys throwing the mom a baby shower is cute 😆 the first story was simply good
I love the post office story. Chef's kiss, perfect!👍💕
I honestly don't know too much about unions but from what I've heard I think they should be allowed and perhaps even mandated by law (in the US). Too many employers screw over employees that in turn have little to no recourse. Perhaps if service industry and retail job workers had a union, they wouldn't have to put up with Karen type customers BS (not too much anyway, wouldn't want the waitstaff or cashier ETC. to turn karen type instead, entitlement can go both ways).
The maintnence guys throwing a baby shower is so amazing. Ive always had more guy friends than girl friends growing up due to my hobbies and I would CRY with happiness if my guy friends did that. So wholesome. 😭
After watching this video, I only hate the US Postal Service even more now. Really messed up that private companies aren't allowed to deliver letter mail.
I am really hoping for a story where someone insists someone get fired and see them laugh in their face and tell them they cant get them fired because...UNION!!
A lot of these stories can be summed up as "play stupid games, win stupid prizes"
I love seeing all the Miguel “El Piojo” Herrera memes… i remember seeing that moment on live TV, when he celebrated winning the “Liga MX”…
Honestly I thought the first story is that Karen slapped a pregnant op, but she didn't know she was pregnant. So op go to HR and filled a complaint. They look at the security camera and see what happens. Karen realize what she did and got fired. Also maybe a lawsuit for attacking pregnant lady. I'm glad she didn't slapped her though.
Re: Rude customer vs union worker
My parents always told me to get a government or even union job! I guess this is one of the perks of a union job!
So this is petty but, lol, the last story with the lady and the fish. I don't actually think the lady was entitled. I think she was actually concerned that she was getting more fish than she paid for and didn't want to rip the store off. I think sometimes people need to chill and realize that a lot of situations are just miscommunication and peoples bias and (mis)perceptions filling in what they think is happening as opposed to what is. lol
That's a really considerate perspective. I completely agree with you.
My ex and I had a really great relationship because before we would get into an argument I would try to find where the miscommunication happened.
When my husband was an active duty Marine we accumulated a bunch of single Marines and basically we were like their pseudoparents when they were living overseas. So we kind of adopted all these boys and made them feel like they were at home. There is no one I would want to throw me a baby shower more than these boys! Have you seen flowermen at weddings? I can’t imagine if they had to throw a baby shower! Just all the yeses from me!
I now have a mental image of a bunch of fully grown men in dress uniforms just stacked in a messy basement like they're cardboard cutouts... 🤭 Accumulated marines 😂
AYOOO IM (somewhat) EARLY!! Rslash I just wanna say how much I adore your channel. I listen all the time
O único problema desse vídeo é que ele acaba. kkkkkkkkk MEU DEUS, QUE VIAGEM! Foi uma p*ta viagem nostálgica pelos anos 2000, o Canella é uma verdadeira enciclopédia de cultura pop! Robertinho também entregou demais na interpretação!
“Let those who brewed the piss drink it” I have never heard that before in my life and now I’m going to use it so…yoink! *runs away with the statement laughing like a hyena*
Miguel Herrera!!!!! What is he doing in the thumbnail?!?!?! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 His expressions are legendary
Mail Story: Love that boss! "See how long it takes YOU to find it!" Honestpy though, being someone who handles mail like that OP should know better than to use the line "Its just mail". Bills to pay. Government assistance to fill out. Official paperwork of any kind really that isnt just a letter or adds. Someone who works at the post office should know better than to view mail as "just mail".
I came here to say exactly that. Not just paperwork, but government checks, payroll checks, and other payments/disbursements. Having that kind of apathetic attitude and contempt for something that is a Federal offense to tamper with is regrettable.
I have twice in my life encountered a pregnant woman so mean and evil that it made me worried for the health of the baby. (Different women to be clear)
I love RSlash in the morning
Wait, babyshowers are no men events? I thought they were celebrations for a couple getting a baby and the couple invited their parents and some family and or their friends? Whuaaat? Does "no men" also include the to be father?
That used to be true. These days I think men are often included if they want to be. All of the at work showers (wedding or baby) included everyone who wanted to attend. And were offered for male and female employees.
Traditionally it was only women because men didn't want to or weren't allowed to be involved but in recent years it is welcomed and encouraged for men to attend
I for instance had my husband and several women and a few men at my baby shower
My "baby" is only 22 and there were guys at my baby shower. Tons of food, beer and soda. It was a good time.
And by recent that means in the last 30 years or so as it was common to attend showers since at least the 90s.
Still absolutely wild that an abrasive comment made OP "check her vital signs for safety" and take 3 days off 💀
you cant build a wall along your property? In SA, every house in the suburbs has at least a 10 foot wall surrounding it.
Once a VHS tape fell on my big toenail breaking through it. It hurt like hell and took a year for the damage to grow out.
Long ago, when he was still a teenager, my husband threw a banana to his mother (yes , she asked his to “toss” her a banana). She missed it, it hit her foot and broke one of the many small bones. Took a while to recover too. Became family legend.
Wait, is it common that baby showers are for women only? I’ve been to lots & they’ve all been for any friends & family who can attend, regardless of gender, as long as they got an invitation.
Until the last couple of decades it was very common men were either not allowed or didn't care to go to baby showers but during the last few years it's more common for men to join and be encouraged to join especially fathers as it's their baby to

One of the best I’ve heard lately, especially the second to last story!
He's absolutely right these are human beings not machines you can't just push a button and instantly get your mail it takes a while
Firstly, it’s not “only Mail” who knows what was inside? Maybe test results from a hospital, maybe documents needing signing for a life saving operation. Maybe the ransom letter they’ve been waiting for to save their families lives? Secondly, a split toe nail and you have to go on to light duties? If that’s what OP thinks pain is then they are in for a rude awakening if they ever break a bone for real. Let’s not even get started about child birth.
Baby showers may have used to be mainly for women and i will admit it is still pretty common, but these days more and more men are attending them too.
Postal worker chiming in. Postal story sounds pretty legit. The only part I have trouble believing is the PM (or any management for that matter) playing any degree of nice.
Not saying it's impossible.
These vids are some of the only things I look forward to daily
3:36 From what I understand from an _I_ _Love_ _Lucy_ episode, men can throw a baby shower, too; however, the episode depicts them throwing one for Ricky (the father) while the ladies threw one for Lucy (the mother).
Okay, the post office story:
The man was an asshole, yes. But I got triggered by this sentence: "when you finally drag your butt to pick it up". Like we want to go to the post office. In my country, it's very common that the mailman doesn't ring the bell, to check if you are at home, so if you have to sign something to get your mail, you don't get it. I work at home most of the time, and it happened countless times, that I just saw a notification to go to the post office. So when I "finally drag my butt to pick it up" I'm pissed. (I'm not rude to tha staff there, because they are not the mailman.) But don't be rude to us.
Yeah, story three is one of those scare tactics they love to throw around about unions and stuff. They cost too much, they make it so lazy works don't get off their duff and do their jobs, etc. But, in my experience, limited as it is, I've yet to meet a union that doesn't try to do their jobs. It's usually a management problem that causes issues, or worse, the management trying to screw the union over.
To be fair, that's 3 unions, and not ones I was part of, as I was an outsider in all 3 places, but in at least 1 of them, the assholes in admin kept trying to throw them under the bus, as if THEY were costing the company money, whereas the admins in that place pulled down almost twice what everyone else did in total, and in 3 months, they did one piece of real work. Needless to say, we cleaned house of the upper staff there, and promoted from the floor instead.
Story 1: I thought my generation (X) had paved the way for co-ed baby showers. Maybe we didn't do as much as I thought.
Naming your child Karen today is considered abuse.
I hope that everyone is having a good Friday!
For the mail story, that guy must have thought the post office works like it does in Seinfeld.
For the 5th story. My town is pretty small so there isn’t too much mail that comes through so, the lady that works the counter can find your package in less then a minute. Even if it took 3+ minutes I wouldn’t complain because it’s 3 MINUTES!
1st story: And what a surprise, this B had a friend in HR. People like Karen are miserable, and feel they need to spread their sh-ttiness around. Props to the maintenance team.
3:52 in college, guys are Frat. OP would've been the only Frat Girl......
I disagree with the statement from the end of a story in this video "its only mail". that letter could be from the army saying how someone died, it could also be something important on those lines
I am pausing the video after the postal worker story to write this. About five years ago, I was in my driveway checking the camping gear in the trunk of my car getting ready for trip. The postal carrier rolls by, stops at my box, and drops off a letter. I finish checking things, and head over to see what was left.
It was a "Sorry we missed you" notification for a certified letter. This idiot missed me standing right there in my driveway. I am 6 feet tall, and 320lbs. When I am right there in my driveway, you don't miss me. You are too goddam lazy to do your job. Of course, this has nothing to do with the OP in the story read here, being that she worked inside the branch, but the drivers in my neighborhood ARE that lazy and irresponsible.
Hey rslash I love ur content, commentary, and video format and professionalism. However I have two complaints. Your videos are too short and sometimes you repeat stories which really gives us a short episode sometimes it feels like wow we got 1 new story read to us. Yea I know I could just go to Reddit and read them myself but it lets me visualize stories more when read anyways sorry for the rant but please try not to give us repeat stories
The only reason someone should be so antsy about getting their mail in .05 seconds is if they're shipping stuff they shouldn't be. I'd definitely make sure its all kosher
No men at baby showers? I've been to a few. Who knew
Yeah who knew that men had nothing to do with making babies?! Learn something new everyday 🙃
WAIT A MANAGER KAREN?!
Haven't heard of them in a while
