Story one: what kind of idiotic moron of an owner does that? You lose $30000 and lose a good employee. It literally only hurts you and doesn’t benefit anything. What a waste of time.
Someone who wants to stroke his/her own ego
The kind who's so high on a power trip that they genuinely don't consider the possibility that their employee would take being fired over doing what they're told. So, the idiot kind.
The OP of the story didnt even have to go back when asked by the police. Simply said "No, I'm not, my manager is a dumbass for not watching the front after telling me if I didnt like doing a job I wasnt paid to do to just quit, so I did. That part is a civil matter, the criminal matter of his accusations however you might want to get in writing, and have him sign before anything else. Then feel free to come an arrest me, however, there is zero evidence other than his word, meaning you dont have enough evidence to even come and arrest me right now. Pass it onto the investigators, they want to come and interview me, well you can get my address from my old employer. But if you arrest me, and prosecution chooses to take it to court, I will make certain to sue the city, your police department and that dumbass manager for it all when I am found not-guilty and my arrest was invalid."
@@Ryanthusar I agree with you, but being hostile with the police gets you nowhere
@Bryan Lu better hostile than wasting 30 more minutes on an idiot. They couldn't even bothered to look at the CCTV before calling her?
Sam: "Stop messaging us, jeez! I message you when I need you.
Well, "Sam" needed to blame _someone_ in order to avoid putting his own neck through the noose.🙄
@@danielbrant6740 Basically he wanted OP to be the scapegoat over his dumbass decision.
@dracko158 What're the odds that Sam's teammates weren't aware of what he said until after the fact? If OP was more petty, they could've forwarded Sam's messages so they know _exactly_ who's at fault.
@@danielbrant6740 I mean, the rest of the group didn't reply at all, one can assume they are probably in on it. And when they realize they f*cked up by not responding at all, they HAD to find someone to pin the blame on. It's a theory, but why else would they not respond at all?
Actually she just left the kids alone. She wrote with one of them who told her not to help. The right response from an educator would be to at least ask the others if they actually want that too. But no she just abandoned them all. People like this have nothing to do in education. Like wtf at least it would be her job to teach them and talk about the fact that this is not a smart decision. Also her rules already sounds like she isnt there to teach but to controll. Deadlines (ok might be from the programm) and mandatory meetings (clearly her idea) ??? Lady these are highschoolers they barley can tell the difference bewtween their face and their ass ... and you treat them like they are adaults or at least already at the University. I bet she killed the aspiration of one of the kids to go into tech when not for all.
always funny how managers will plant themselves in the office, let things fall apart and then blame the employee LOL
"Why should I do a peon's task? I'm busy _managing."_ 🙄
It’s also funny how when you need them, they’re never around, but when you don’t need them they’re all out and about like roaches. And they use it as an opportunity to throw their weight and breathe down their employees necks to find the slightest thing to nitpick. 😒
This is what I love about my current workplace: the managers actually, moving forward, are assigning Rostered Days Off and have people covering for us. Or if they can't, they'll do it.
Wow. That boss in the last story must have been hired through nepotism. All they wanted to do was harass the employees without any sense of productivity. Even working in a government job, I haven't heard of such inefficiency.
This is, unfortunately, a true story from the late 70s or early 80s (I'm summarizing secondhand) : A US Army Captain received some paperwork addressed to another Army Captain with the same last name, in the same battalion. Without double-checking, the Captain initialed some boxes and went to sign the document. Finally, he noticed that the signature block was prefilled with the other Captain's first name. He made the required fixes and forwarded the paperwork to the correct Captain, with a note attached. The note went something like this: I have erased my initials and initialed my erasures.
The story say's that he's the owner... so no-one hired him.
@@jonathan248 inherited the company
The boss's bosses's boss? then we need to call it has to start somewhere
oh there are definitely idiots out there that get enough money up to start companies. my father's boss was one of a few people that bought a few key assets of a big company when it closed. He made his money just through climbing the corporate ladder at the original company as far as I know. anyway this guy is dumb as a box of rocks. The main asset they got from the original company was the data, in the form of an antiquated server and a 3 stacks of antiquated hard drives...each is five 1mb disks the size of dinner plates. 1 stack is the working drive, and the other two are backups. on these are the entire company's proprietary product data, proprietary software, as well as payroll. so boss gets to work early to do something, and the server crashes, ruining the data integrity of that stack. so he puts on the second one and it crashes again, so now there's only ONE backup stack remaining. My father gets to the office just as his boss is loading THE LAST STACK ON...! if my father had arrived only five minutes later, they all would have been looking for new jobs! and I wish this was the only example I knew of, but that's only one of the stories he's told me.
In all seriousness, the kids who missed the deadline got a way more valuable and necessary lesson. There is nothing more helpful you could do for these kids than allowing them to fail and learn from it (as many times as it takes).
Bla
True
Yep
Sometimes the best teacher is the cold reality of failure. They either learn or they don't learn unfortunately.
@@jackbruno4748 That is ok as a standpoint but if you think that than you should not offer to teach people. Because for that lesson no one needs a teacher. In the End they wuld have been better of without her because then at least they would have none that they wont recive any help. I dont mind if she had riminded them one last time and they still werent on time but she didn`t. She could have asked the others if the team leader actually talked to them about what he said to her but she didn`t. Like she failed on every level because she got offended and decided to be petty. This is not giving them a dose of reality this is just she not doing her job because she is a petty asshole.
Story 3: I’m glad those kids learned that lesson, it doesn’t even feel like malicious compliance or anything, just an adult teaching a valuable lesson about responsibility.
I doubt they learned anything, they probably just blamed her and refused to accept any responsibility for their failure.
Honestly the "leave your wheelchair here" seems like a brain fart an overworked employee would make. Hes pretty dense for not realizing sooner. Im just saying it seemed more like ignorance than malice
Yeah, almost seems like he was on autopilot lol
Most people would probably be defensive about it and possibly get reprimanded for ignorance or something. But this guy actually felt really bad and apologized profusely, so yeah, they probably had a brain fart and didn't know what to think.
Yeah I hope he didn't get fired over it, though if stuff like this became a recurring issue that's another deal regardless of intentions.
I'm a full-time wheelchair user, and you'd be surprised and disgusted by the number of times we encounter that kind of brain-dead obliviousness in professional settings. Like the last time they weighed me, the nurses -- yes, _multiple_ nurses! -- insisted I stand, without assistance, on the _wheelchair accessible_ scale. [facepalm]
@@wmdkitty I mean brain farts happen all of the time but reminder most of the time people deal with 1000s of things on a job like nurses having to do slot of garbage and like the op In that story also requires some physical and mental effort to find and push down the bar and also dealing with peoples question and stuff like that. Can’t really blame either party since well everyone makes mistakes unless you had the same nurse told you to get up and use the wheelchair accessible scale then yea it’s the nurse’s fault
Deadline story is once again, don't mess with the IT guy.
_Especially_ when they're your teacher!
Story 4 (Discount): Man, this has got to be a common occurrence, saving a couple dollars per item makes everyone lose their minds. Also, how did Debbie expect her plan to work? It's a 1 Day coupon, and in a different state
"Pennywise, pound foolish."
@@erinfinn2273 "stomping on briefcases full of banded $100 bills and stumbling on gold ingots to pick up scuffed pennies"
I remember when i ordered a hat from online store, with disocunt code, two days later this same hat got a 50% discount and also additional discount code worked, I just said Fuck my life and shrug it off :)
You would be surprised at the number of one day events that go like this. A non-meat burger company had a one day coupon to celebrate something. Customer tried to use it days afterward (got it from a coupon sharing site. don't do that. most of those coupons are frauds). It was also valid only in California and we are in Michigan so double no.
Last story: That owner is the kind of guy who probably would yell into an envelope to send a voicemail!
He’d 100% send a howler by owl
😂
😂😂😂
Yeah, if I were working there, I would tell him that I quit and that I don't want to work for a company that is run by an idiot before walking out.
So true!😂
The last story. The boss wasn't a doofus, he was a moron. Good grief.
Dang, i wasnt expecting a RuPaul joke with my malicious compliance this morning
It was great!
Just finished watching RuPaul so that’s a hilarious coincidence.
@@samurailevi49 absolutely amazing
That joke was sooo good
13:17 She probably paid more in gas to get to the store than it would have saved her EVEN IF the coupon was still valid.
Right?! Not to mention her time! She wasted hours of her time as well! There should be a store policy that lets them not serve people who throw insults at the workers. Like ma'am, we don't want your $10.50
I'm hoping she was already traveling and thought she could save a little money along the way. Driving 1,500 miles to save $2.50... I can't imagine even the biggest idiot doing that. I have seen people drive across town to save a couple bucks on gas, though.
I once dealt with a customer who couldn't comprehend taxes when he exchange an item for a different item that cost less. He had thought our store shorted him money when in reality the taxes are already taken care of and adjusted. He was so adamant that he was right and my boss (female) was wrong.
Then we had to explained and phrase it in a different way how it worked.
@@turrboenvy4612'm betting the 1500 miles was either an exaggeration or a typo. That's farther than the distance from Chicago to Miami which is a 20+ hr drive. Traveling would explain it tho.
1st story: OP did great at leaving. Butcher tools are not some household kitchen knife you just clean normally, you have to dismantle them, clean them with specific cleaning products/tools, assemble them again. And better nake sure they are turn off and off the plug,or have a fun time chopping your finger
That sounds like a long process
It's funny, sitting in the wheelchair area after he was stupid, but I feel it wasn't malicious, sounds like it was busy, and he was on autopilot. Hopefully it didn't get him in trouble, unless he was being a douche on purpose in which case I hope it comes out of his wages.
Oh you can tell that the supervisor in story 4 was just hearing "LAWSUIT" in his head when he heard about what the employee said to the wheelchair user. Lucky OP was chill about the situation and did get some good stuff from it. But man, how can people he so stupid?
No op was a bitch, he could have just told the worker that he can’t walk
I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt and just assume that it was a long day for that employee and he just had a brain failing moment where he just thought “customer can’t ride vehicles in, must park.” At least, I’m hoping he’s the kind of person who wouldn’t do this with a clear mind and is going to be embarrassed about this til the end of time.
@@sugarkane1571 im with you there, esp since he was incredibly apologetic once he realized instead of getting defensive and rude like a lot of people do
@@clayfan3 yep, 'park your stuff here, go into ride there...next...' long day autopilot 😄
1st story is how you get OSHA & Health Dept Inspection. I worked for a major chain grocery store & the meat dept HAS to be cleaned to perfection. Also the meat slicer has to be taken apart carefully & cleaned & reassembled correctly. Not doing so can cause a severe injury. Plus these cashier's are most likely not even properly trained. 30,000 is a lot of money to lose but calling the the latter two for violations is gonna be way worse.
The wheelchair story is hilarious.
I can hear the gears turning and the dial up internet sounds blaring through this guy's head as doesn't understand what he did wrong
I mean I want to believe that steps could have been taken to educate him in a less embarrassing way, literally all the person in the wheelchair had to do is say "nah I can't walk or stand so I think I'll take my chair inside unless you intend on offering me a piggy back ride UwU"
We're all going to meet ignorant people in life and either we can laugh it off and educate politely or give them a reason to discriminate in the future.
He is such a mood
@@MeshelllChambersThat's what I thought as well. This could have Ben resolved much more quickly an simply.
@mariposa9506 true, this really was "malicious" compliance, obviously the poor employee was in autopilot not thinking
Malicious compliance is delicious... Always to be savoured c: Also, good morning, everyone!
Good Morning ☀️
its 15:10 for me lol 💯
A good morning from the afternoon, you omnipresent commenter :3
Story 4: I'm kind of skeptical about this story being true. I worked retail and I had customers exactly like Debbie who returned their products and got angry that they got less back because they bought their stuff at a different location. Maybe this is different from store-to-store, but we were NOT allowed to adjust the amount to account for tax. The only exception I remember seeing was the time the store manager literally unlocked one of the registers to give a Karen a quarter so she'd calm down and leave, and even then he told me to NOT do what he just did b/c it's against store policy. He only did it to avoid what would've otherwise been an inevitable screeching match.
The Cell Phone Story reminded me:
I've been staying with friends for a lot longer than either of us wants.
One of them I'm convinced must be on the spectrum, or he's willfully incompetent.
They raise chickens, and had four new ones. They're kept separate until old enough to be introduced to the adult chickens as Pecking Order is a real thing. New additions can be harmed as being considered intruders.
So in the morning the four would be removed from the cage inside the house, and put into a cage in the chicken yard, so the flock not only gets used to the newbies, but can't hurt them.
In the evening they're brought back to their cage inside the house. Generally I'd be doing this; it got to the point I could carry all four, all perched on my arm.
Now and then my friend did it; no big deal.
They own three buildings on the property. I'm in the main house, the secondary house had the interior chicken cage in the back Bird Room, which does have a door, often open but sometimes closed.
This one day, my friend comes into the main house to get me, as the bird room door is closed. I'm puzzled; why can't he just open the unlocked door? I go next door and see all four young chickens standing on a chair in the kitchen, seemingly wondering the same thing as I was.
My friend had been carrying in the chickens, seen the door was closed, and instead of 𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘰𝘰𝘳 to bring in the chickens, he put the chickens down, loose in the house, and instead of walking back and just opening the bird room door, 𝘸𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘯𝘦𝘹𝘵 𝘥𝘰𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝙢𝙚 to come open the door.
My friend is the poster boy for the Dunning Kruger Effect...
I listen to these to get the anxiety down before school, tysm ❤
It's so sad that RSlash had to clarify the voice choice when it's blatantly explained right there in the story itself.
There will always be someone who's mad, no matter the topic. Heading misunderstanding off beforehand is also prudent.
It wasn't strictly necessary, but I think it's a kind gesture. Especially if this is someone's first rSlash video
wel a lot of people watch these as an podcast they dont read along so thats why
@@wowgek7 I listen to this on the background and don't read along either, and it was very clearly stated that Paul decided to speak in an overly effeminate voice. Still weird to me that people would rather hissy-fit than pay attention.
@@luvondarox no one threw a hissy fit. rslash didn't want to hurt someone's feelings, so he clarified so everyone was on the same page. you are more upset about the clarification than any of my friends are about the voice he did.
On the wheelchair story: my sister is a part time wheelchair user (she mostly uses crutches or a cane, but will use a wheelchair for longer outings due to chronic pain in her knees). We live near Disneyland, and we went just a few weeks ago. Whenever we went on a ride, they *always* asked her if she was comfortable/ able to get up and walk. They didn’t just assume she could.
Yeah, but doesn't it make more sense to assume that they simply can't walk if they're in a wheelchair? I mean, I know there are some people who can just be lazy and not want to walk but I think it would be worse on you as an employee to make that assumption then to assume that they can't walk at all. Lol
@@undrhil laziness isn't the reason there are a lot of ambulatory wheelchair users. Don't be so ignorant and ableist.
@@undrhil There is no real benefit of making any assumption, so while assuming they can't walk does make more sense than vice versa... In situations like this, where there is a benefit of knowing, e.g. to give the requirred amount of support, the best course of action is always to just ask if you you don't know...
And only 1 kind of Wheelchair user would really be offended by being asked that question, and that's the people that aren't physically disabled, but mentally challenged...
Wheelchair story: The veteran employee knew that new employee messed up so badly the park would lose if they were sued over it and/or get them fined as a business. That's why they came out with refunds, vouchers and snacks. It was a low cost bribe to buy forgiveness, since actual legal action/complaints would cost the park overall WAY more.
Story 2 (Deadlines): The peck was Team B doing all this time? If they didn't want to be "bothered," then they should've been doing the project in time rather that…whatever else they were doing
My father drove a truck for a company that was later absorbed by a larger company that also rented trucks. Anyway, this was the 1960’s and the trucks aren’t equipped with radios (CB radio is a decade away). This one dispatcher was a controlling jerk and had it out for my dad. He had my dad call him every half an hour. That task alone could take at least 20 minutes as you had to locate a pay phone or booth, find a necessary size parking space for the truck all for “why haven’t you kept up with deliveries? Or - Where are you?” To get half the deliveries done was a major chore to do in northern New Jersey. From what I understand that dispatcher didn’t last long especially when the union got involved.
5:00 As a longtime high school teacher, color me completely un-surprised by the missed deadline. I just finished another semester of teaching dual-credit English composition. Deadlines appear to be mere suggestions, and some kids were shocked -- SHOCKED -- when they got lower grades due to missed deadlines. They knew weeks in advance. Welcome to adulting!
Well that's kinda dumb
2nd Story: 8-yr-olds in Middle School? Isn’t Middle School just Junior high +6th grade? I’m 40 and went to what had to be one of the last junior highs in the States. I was actually 2 years ahead of my peers, as I started school a year earlier and also skipped straight from 4th to 6th grade, but even I was at least 9, in 6th grade. I think everyone else was 11. Thank the Big Jeeze for an early puberty, though! By the time I was 10 I looked 12 or 13, by the time I was 14 I could grow a full moustache and beard. I was buying beer from convenience stores at 15, and regularly drinking in local bars at 16. I’ve only been carded an handful of times post-17, and that’s only by those weird people who card everyone. I lived a rough lifestyle, so I looked 40 by 27 or so.
Of course, I had some severe health issues, then (totally related), so I chilled out a bit, and now at 40, I can pass for 30, except for the few white hairs in mi beard.
P.S.: Forgive me for the novel, but I’m a cripple and I spend lots of time reflecting upon my glorious youth. I kind of have to, because if I look forward to the future, there is nothing good waiting for me.
Last story: How does someone like that run a company? Simple. Nepotism. Before my mom retired, she got moved to a different department and the boss was a nepotism hire. She was denser than a sack of rocks. I know this because my mom was basically doing her job too. Any correspondence from the woman started with “I’m panicking.” My mom figured she didn’t have long until retirement but even then she couldn’t stand this woman’s incompetence and she wound up retiring early. Unluckily for the boss, my mom was asked to give a review of her to a panel with the boss present. The boss asked how she did at her job and my mom laughed in her face and told her about all the things she did that hindered my mom’s ability to do her job properly. The panel wasn’t pleased to hear this and the ex-boss started crying. Real professional.
I really like the voice you did for Paul. I think you should do it more often.
I used to work for a guy like that last story, he was a heavy drinker and super forgetful as a result. He basically just let his assistant run the show while he slept on a couch in his office and signed paychecks. He'd forget when people had off, forget people he'd hired, just all in all a really sloppy businessman.
That must've been rough
Ugh!!! My employee isn’t picking up their company phone and there is this faint ringing in my office that is driving me nuts! Why is everyone but me so incompetent!
That sounds like a soul sucking, horrible place to work at.
I hope that everyone is having a good Tuesday!
You have one too 👋
hope you have a good tuesday as well internet peep
You also!!!!!😊
My girl had to put her dog down yesterday
For the moment ❤ same to you 😊
Only A Man: I had a customer get huffy with one of my coworkers because he has a thick Texan drawl. Surprise: we're in Texas. Bell Helicopter has a huge presence here and we were supporting Bell Helicopter. She asked for someone smarter. FYI - in call centers, it's a 50-50 chance you might get a manager. Usually, you're passed off to someone who's been there longer. Like the older sibling is considered a free babysitter, "mentors" and "subject matter experts" in call centers are just people tasked to do managerial stuff without the pay raise or training - or authority - all while taking calls. So since she didn't like a "Foat Wuth" accent, I threw on my South Carolinian, got her fixed and sent her on her way while my coworker was giggling at my east coast southern drawl. My mother was born and raised in Tennessee so I have a nice southern accent repertoire to pull from. (My Cajun is horrendous).
The theme park gave them a refund and vouchers because they straight up did not want to get sued lol
That worker was stupid
Years ago I used to work retail and customers pulled the same crap on me all the time. They’d try to return items that they’d already purchased and have me re-ring them up so that they could get the sale price. Fine. I would look over their receipt and often find items that were on sale when they bought them but not on sale now. For example, t-shirts that were buy one get one free when they purchased them days ago, are now regular price. I would explain to the customer that once I gave them their money back, each item would be re-rung at the price they are now. If we were having a 25% off all items in the store sale but the t-shirts are no longer ‘buy one get one free’, the customer may actually end up paying more for the items. I would try to explain all of this BEFORE starting the return and ask them if they’re sure they want to go ahead with the transaction. Most of the time, they wouldn’t even listen to me. Often I got attitude as if I was trying to keep them from getting the sale price. Whatever. They were always shocked when the total ended up being more than they originally paid. “Why is it more? You didn’t ring it up right?!” Then I would have to explain it all over again.🙄
Don't worry about your voices, man. They are fun, fit the narrative, and part of comedy. No one is offended when you're doing any voice. Remember, no malice no offense. Jokes aren't hate speech.
I can't get enough of this content. I listen to it all the time while on dialysis. 😊
I can no longer find it but my favourite malicious compliance story is : Op worked in an office and he like sorting the trash to make sure nothing that could be recycled was thrown in the trash. His manager asked him to stop or be fired for theft. Op stop sorting the trash and the city stopped sending the company a 2000$ check (more or less) for good practices. When the CEO came down to see why they found that cop's manager was cashing those cheques because they thought it was a bonus. Manager got fired and maybe jailed for embezzlement. I know they got fired but not sure about jail maybe just sued
Sounds interesting! Love a good Malicious compliance in the morning. ( P.S good morning ppl )
Wheelchair story: is it to much to hope the worker was just, having a long day and had a brain fart? Or perhaps had dealt with wheelchair users that only need it some of the time and did leave it to go on the ride? Cause it doesn't sound like he was being malicious, just, dumb.
Last story: I imagine the conversation at the end went like this:
- Why aren't you answering your phone?
- You confiscated it.
- But why are you not answering it?!
Repeat ad absurdum...
I was told, by a gay man in the mid 90's, that there are 3 types of gay.
Gay: Just some normal bloke who happens to be h0mos£xual
Ghey: Posers faking being overly flamboyant and most aren't even h0mos£xual they just do it for attention (you see this a lot in showbusiness)
Faaaaabulous!: Naturally overly flamboyant gay men (you have to say it flamboyantly and extend the A's)
I love this explanation. As it's simple, easy to understand and gets to the point.
Honestly, that last story belongs in r/StoriesAboutKevin. That boss was IMPRESSIVELY stupid.
RE first story: Yeah, that supervisor assumed that employee was dependant on that position to survive, which meant he assumed he could hold her employment hostage to make her do what he wanted. Oops! LOL
I once worked at a college, the CEO & COO were so detached from reality. Everyday myself and other staff were reminding them of their own laptop passwords, server passwords, exam dates. The most irritating was reminding them everyday about the working times of certain lecturers. Their responses are burned into my brain, "Oh, yes, that's right." 😣😫 "Where's this lecturer?" "He comes in at 9." "Oh, yes, that's right." "Where's my secretary?" "She leaves at 3." "Oh, yes, that's right." Etc, etc.........
Hey, r/, I've been having a really hard time in my life. But every time I hear your voice and listen to you tell stories I feel a little better; thank you.
In that amusement park story if that younger employee wasn’t fired for that then he’s definitely on the thinnest ice possible.
I really don’t understand the returns story. She probably spent more in gas than she did in tAxEs on the sale. The gymnastics this lady had to do to reach this logic is astounding.
art supplies story: i don't understand people who don't factor gas costs into their trips.... even if the coupon had worked, it doesn't sound like she would have saved very much, and then she had to spend who knows how much in gas to get there
Knowing how the mind of a Karen works, it’s only a matter of time before she complains to corporate, and then still leaves a one star review when corporate doesn’t side with her.
Last story: incredible what incompetent bosses can do to 'Umericans without real consequences. If my boss tried such a stunt, he would end up with a dental implant in the form of an iPhone 13. And a loss of 200.000€ in annual sales. Some people don't know their worth. Or they are simply worthless.
In the deadline story OP really should have made sure that Sam was speaking for the entire group before doing that. Sam probably didnt consult the team about this, especially with how the last message was worded, and if that was the case its not fair to the other kids in the group. If they all did agree to sending the message though, the mentor was definitely in the right!
I get the feeling that the rest of Team B was still aware of the deadline date whether Sam was speaking for them or not, given the previous messages they'd received stating as such. It's still a valuable lesson.
10:14 ah yes, the "PLEASE DON'T SUE US" gifts
It's only bribery if it doesn't work. 😂
If I was OP I would've refused to be a part of the cleanup for the butcher area. Didn't reported to the health inspector because they have certain standards they have to meet by the health inspector that you have to be certified to do the cleaning can't just randomly pull somebody off the street to do it.
You always drop your videos around 7:30 a.m., so I get to listen to new rslash videos as I get ready for school, making every morning a good one
So, thanks. Plus, it's made better with the raycons I got using your code
Worth noting (to that last story) it is illegal in the states to require someone to pick up the phone for work, unless they are on the clock.
Ahhhh, delicious, malicious compliance... remember to get it in writing friends!
On the one hand, I understand the "malicious compliance" of no longer replying or reminding the high schoolers of their obligation. However, if this is a job that you are being paid for, then it doesn't matter what they say you have to do your job and give them the reminder. If they don't like it they can take it up with your bosspirit or, they can deal with it and get the work done and you won't have to remind them. But you shouldn't be taking orders from them. Also, in that story, I think it was supposed to be 8th graders not 8 year olds. I don't think 8 year olds would be in middle school. Lol
Paul is BOSS! Get that guy a bottle of his favorite drink, he's earned it.
2:00 Well, that's the thing, the owner was so chronicly lazy that he was watching football instead of the security footage. Also it takes a special type of stupid to leave the only check out are with no cashier to manage it
As an IT person, my liver requests we don’t talk about the IT party Circle
Last story. Someone like that comes to run a company because their parents either gave them the company or the money to fund it. They definitely have more money than sense.
Story 1: lol yeah the store owner is the robbery accomplice, here 😂
As a paraplegic and double amputee, I'd have taken the park refund and food, but I think I'd find some kid to give the shop voucher to, but that's just me. I'd also have acted the same way but maybe stepped it up a notch by not telling the supervisor I couldn't walk, especially before my amputations I'd have let them realize what's going on then laugh it off and leave it as a teachable moment.
Like the time I got a guy good in college. I was in sociology class, and we were discussing religion (I live in south Mississippi, aka the middle of the Bible belt). Well, the teacher asked (hypothetical, I'm sure) how do you know if God is real? One guy in the class said, "Well, you didn't wake up paralyzed this morning, did you?" I meekly raised my hand and said, "I did." There was silence in the class until I started laughing, then the class burst into laughter. I tried to catch the guy and thank him for that setup, but he was gone.
8:11 omg the park couldve gotten a HUGE lawsuit because the guy was oblivious. im glad op didnt get angry and instead helped him learn something that definitely didn't click for him.
3:27 as someone who's a mega fruit, you don't need to apologize. you did paul justice in the best way
Frfr
I soooo wish I knew Paul! He sounds like a really cool friend to have!
That is a bit weird… The asshole manager was in the office with a security cam in his face the whole damn time and NOT see the thieves running in and out with their loot.
I don’t think the wheelchair story happened (and if it did, it was embellished for Reddit). I’ve worked in theme park ops for 3+ years, and it’s possible it’s at a park where the policies are different but I doubt it.
Attractions operations management at every theme park I’ve ever worked at is not allowed to touch money or refund guests anything. Guest relations handles all of that. They might have taken them over to guest relations to help remedy the situation but they are unable to hand out anything but merchandise/food vouchers.
Also as far as guest situations go this is pretty minor and unless OP was significantly more angry than they let on, there is no way any theme park would refund the full price of admission. It’s much more likely that they just got a ticket to come back another day.
Story 3: It's amazing that the early middle schoolers were more mature and hard working then the high schoolers
Story 5: Pretty sure refunding things based solely on taxes, and from another STATE's store is illegal and against Corporate policies.
The last story. If I were you since you have moved on to greener pastures, would recommend that you send this guy your story. Read By R/! Just to make sure knows... That he is a legend as a douche big boss!! ❤❤❤
Got messed up while listening to rslash [it was completely my fault, tried to pull my pants up while I was on a scooter going 25 mph LMAOO] now I'm back home getting to listen to rslash again while I clean myself up, hope everyone's having a wonderful day
The wheelchair story sounds like they had an encounter with a Kevin
More like the kid probably had a long day at work because stuff like that happens a lot.
@@swector_unit4257 yeah long days of customer service are insanely draining and slip ups are common as a result especially when dealing with hundreds to thousands of people a day
At 7:55 OP should have thrown his own words back at him; "I'm sorry if this bothers you, It is what it is
Even if the coupon did work and she did get the 2-3 dollar lower price, she probably lost net money on the gas cost of driving between the stores
I love your revenge vids as well as the compliance ones they have gotten me through many boring tireing and down right bad times thank you for uploading every day
I had a hilarious moment with the coupon style interaction once, though not nearly as dramatic or yelly
The person was returning two bags of chips because "they hadn't got the special". I was called over to finish up the transaction after the supervisors had just finished taking off the old total from the system, and all it needed was for me to ring up the two bags at the special price. I did, then tried to finalise it to get her refund.... except, it was now saying she owed us a cent.
thanks to rounding, she had actually gotten the special and it had cost a cent left when the tax kicked in.
very weird moment there
A new r/ video is posted every morning just in time for my shower after working out. Love the videos❤
I still can't hear the phrase "rue the day." Without thinking of iCarly 😆 🤣
It's illegal in a lot of states to talk on your cellphone whilst driving for good reason, acting like THAT is some strange rule when it's a law for public safety reasons is worse than complaining about the owner IMO.
How can anyone see a person in a wheelchair and not realize said person can't walk? This thing about using a wheelchair to sit out the tiredness is so dumb! I shouldn't need to explain why I'm bound to a wheelchair, if I'm in one it means I can't walk, the rest is none of their f* business!
Discount Debbie: I want to return these items and purchase them again because your sales tax is lower. Oh and I also want to use this coupon.
Cashier: (notices that the coupon has been used already and is invalid) OK. I returned $$ to you. But now since you are purchasing them again, your new total comes to $$$.
Discount Debbie: $$$?! THAT'S 🤬 INSANE!
I remember when I worked for a company that gave us company phones they had a tracking device on them so they could see where we are at all times talk about controlling
That sounds pretty messed up
one time i had a SHOP OWNER tell me im not old enough to buy tobacco. If i was born in 2000 and you need to be 21 to buy it and it is 2022 i am old enough 🤣🤣
In the USA they usually have stickers somewhere near the register, saying what year is the latest you can be born to legally buy tobacco/alcohol at that shop. I've always suspected it's there at least as much for the staff (so they don't have to do mental math or remember when the cutoff is) as it is for customers.
The fired story forgot to add the loss of revenue from the winning scratchers when the theives redeem them
Oh my god, the last story... Dude is definitely a Kevin.
The guy in the wheelchair story too
Dang, flamboyant Paul is showing up quite often in R/
6:01 and this is why my English teacher had a whole unit on how to email professionally to communicate with teachers and and bosses/ co workers. Holy, the cringe I got
3rd story: So they're mad at op for doing exactly what they told her to do.
Actually in the third story she left the kids alone. She wrote with one of them who told her not to help. The right response from an educator would be to ask the others if they actually want that too. But no she just abandoned them all. People like this have nothing to do in education. Like wtf at least it would be her job to teach them and talk about the fact that this is not a smart decision. Also her rules already sounds like she isnt there to teach but to controll. Deadlines and mandatory meetings??? Lady these are highschoolers they barley can tell the difference bewtween their face and their ass ... and you treat them like they are already at the University. I bet she killed at least the aspiration of one of the kids to go into tech when not all of them.
why in the third story did OP say the all girl group along with the others would be difficult?
To be fair, the emoyee didn't demand that op leave his wheelchair. He said you can.
The "Horray!" is my favorite part. I just broke up, even though I heard this story before.
The guy in the last story asks for the phone back then he comes up into OP’s cubicle and asks why they haven’t been answering the phone calls, like wtf? this guy is either brain-damaged or he has early onset dementia because that’s the only way I can even conceive of that making sense
Run a company? I'm surprised if that owner figured out how to breathe through the nose.
I thought lottery tickets are invalid if it not paid or ring up
5th story..Damn..if it was me..as Debbie was leaving the store I would have shouted "Drive safe" Just to rub it in.
Is Story 4 malicious compliance or a story about kevin? Cause it feels like a cameo of the latter.
The last boss is the definition of "My brother in Christ, you did this."
