Story 1: those sounded like radiology techs, not doctors. I can't think of a single time an MD took my x-rays. Also, I can't think of a single hospital system that would pay for a doctor to take x-rays when a lower paid tech could.
I went back and listened and OP said they were radiology techs.
@@marylowther8495 r/slash was referring to them as doctors.
Techs do the imaging, then doctors look at the images and make the reports.
For the 1st story Smith is a radiology tech not a doctor. The only people who to imagin are radiology techs and you have radiology doctors who read and interpret the results for doctors as doctors don’t look at the actual images and read the report the radiologist interpretation
@@johnguzman5952 no, doctors absolutely read and interpret x-rays, MRIs, and the like. My friend Michael is a neurologist and he absolutely read the scans and images.
Story 4: OP should have gone over to the sales lady “to say goodbye” and ask her what days the salesman was off work. Then come back when he’s not around and buy the binoculars that she wanted, without insurance and without harassment. (And hopefully the sales lady would be working on the guys day off, so she’d get the commission)
If i'd been involved in that, the sales jackass would've been unconscious, physically pushing your colleagues like that is an absolute dick move, i'd also have words with the fucker's manager, cause physically pushing someone unprovoked is assault
No send the guy back for the insurance paperwork when he's gone ask the lady for the original ones and get the sale done before the guy gets back.
He wanted them for an F1 race. That's only 3 days. Unless he wanted to use them for something else going back later wasn't going to help.
Good on you, rSlash, for pointing out the illegality of the tip-taking threat. Wage theft is by far the biggest kind of theft in existence, and it is criminally underprosecuted.
Another Thing That's Illegal Yet Underprosecuted Is Policies Forbidding The Discussion Of Salary
@@joshuawinters7644why did you capitalize every word in the sentence.
@@SuperDestroyerFox I Don't Know, Just Do
Story 2:
I love how that boss used all his professionalism and business acumen to create a paper trail to show how stupid that dress code policy, that Kelly tried to enforce and use to harass Kat, really was. I love when bosses use the company's own rules to stand up for their employees.
OP neglected to get it in writing from the CEO that the dress code was rescinded. That should have come out to all departments/offices AND employees as a notice to all that the dress code, section ABC, subsection123, stating the dress code being rescinded, etc. Otherwise, it is merely a private conversation that could be denied in the future. Rescinded? Give that to me in writing to support the written warnings being permanently removed from her employee file. And, I hope Kelly's sudden change in attitude was the result of a dressing down by the CEO with a warning of the inappropriateness of being too involved in a subordinate employee's personal life.
@@tinydancer7426 I mean I assume he did get it in writing, he just didn’t mention because it wasn’t important
I used the policy to destroy the policy
I'm a radiologist, and Smith is a radiographer. I have an MD, and Smith has a technical degree; these days, a Bachelor's degree. The doctor interprets the image and the radiographer takes the image. Ultimately, the responsibility for the bad images falls on the radiologist, but you bet I'll have the faulty radiographer in remediation or fired if I notice a pattern. Radiation can be dangerous, but the information we get from a person without cutting them open is lifesaving. Every person who deals with radiation follows strict QA/QC procedures along the way: the doctor who orders the exam (MD), the scheduler, the radiographer, and the radiologist. We have the final word, and you bet I am checking the clinical indication, radiation dose, and image quality on every exam, even before I look at the pixels.
Great concise and important clarification 👍
The amount of xrays you'd have to get to be in danger of radiation poisoning is like 300 chest xrays, no? Genuinely curious based on my somewhat limited knowledge of radiation
@Maabuss indeed. don't get radiography confused with radiotherapy. One uses mostly harmless rays to take an image (x-ray) where the other uses harmful radiation to kill cancer and if done improperly can seriously hurt the patient.
@@JPOC226 I wouldn’t call the radiation we use for X-rays “harmless”, but yes they are a much much lower dose. Certainly not “dangerous” as rslash calls it anyway. A chest X-ray is around 0.14-0.22mSv which is comparable spending two days out in nature.
Chest X-ray is also comparable in effective radiation dose to a 4 hour airplane flight.
Second story: OP knew how to make Kelly feel that she was being stupid, made her feel stupid, now Kelly learnt to shut her trap
1st story: As someone who works in radiology, I just wanna point out that "ANY amount of radiology" is not actually harmful. The higher dose you receive, the higher the RISK that you suffer adverse effects in the future.
In fact, when looking at statistics it's impossible to seperate cancer cases caused by radiology from naturally occuring cancer cases because it's that rare due to optimized protocols and technological advancement in the field.
There is a threshold where a high enough dose leads to acute radiation injury (primarily radiation burns) but modern radiology should never reasonably reach such high doses, aside from maybe very exceptional cases.
I was searching the comments for this. I’m just a humble artist but I was 99% sure he was wrong about that. He has his moments…
@@BeeWhistler Both during my education and at work it was emphasised how important it is to dispel misconceptions like this. Just doing my part ^^
Thanks for this, it saved me from making essentially the same comment. With modern, well-maintained x-ray equipment, even a thousand images are *highly* unlikely to cause any harm whatsoever. People do not need to be concerned in the slightest.
He doesn't mean one X-ray will give you cancer. Radiation damage is a cumulative thing. One X-ray absolutely does damage, it's just not enough to be a problem. Many multiple X-rays over a short period of time absolutely can be a problem. That's why you as a radiologist should be in a separate room or wearing lead aprons to protect yourself from repeated exposures. I would expect a radiologist to understand that. The problem with this guy screwing up the X-rays is that now the patient has to have yet more X-rays to get it right, doubling their exposure. If one X-ray was absolutely not harmful in any way, 1000 of them in a day would not be harmful either. Are you going to go to work tomorrow and take 1000 X-rays of your crotch tomorrow? If so, I have a Darwin award for you.
@@wingracer1614 I'm a radiographer, not a radiologist. Radiographers are the ones that take the images and scans, radiologists are the doctors that look through the finished product and write a response to the referal. Like I said: "The higher dose you receive, the higher the RISK that you suffer adverse effects in the future."
One x-ray MIGHT cause damage. Not every photon launched from the x-ray tube will hit a piece of DNA and damage it. The more you are exposed to these photons, the greater the risk that a photon will hit and damage DNA. That is why, as you say, radiographers stand behind a shielded barrier or in a seperate room.
As for your statement that if 1 x-ray is harmless, then 1000 x-rays are also harmless is obviously intentional hyperboli and ludicrous, but it's also decieving.
One x-ray is harmless just like eating one pill of 500mg Paracetamol is harmless, or drinking a liter of water is harmless, or accidentally cutting my arm while wielding a knife is largely harmless.
1000 pills of 500mg Paracetamol will nuke my liver. 1000 liters of water will most likely kill me. Getting 1000 cuts with a knife, well, I believe we have a saying for that. 1000 x-rays of course mean a greater risk, but that's it. GREATER RISK, not definitive damage. What kind of examination you're doing also has a huge impact. A conventional lung x-ray with two projections doesn't compare to a 4-phase urography CT.
And for the record, I know he probably didn't mean that one x-ray examination = cancer, but intent is irrelevent here. The way he said it made it come across as such and that is why I brought it up. Every week I must explain this to atleast one person who thinks going to the radiology department constitutes a tangible risk to themselves. If I and my colleagues allow this misinformation to persist, they will spread it to their friends and coworkers. One of those people might take it at face value and continue the spread. Fewer people will go get x-rays at risk of their health and will create a greater burden on the healthcare system when they have terminal cancer that has metastasized in the lungs, liver, colon and esophagus. If only they hadn't been too scared by the misinformation and done that CT-scan of their lungs 10 years ago when they had a very persistant case of pneumonia, a CT that would catch the top bit of the right kidney that had an anomolous change that would've turned out to be a very treatable tumour.
PS
Drop the sass at the end. It adds nothing to the conversation and nobody finds it charming.
Story 3: You'd think that OP's responses would've given the two coworkers the hint to get off their butts and help, but I guess they were too lazy.
And yeah, withholding tips is a serious crime, it's basically like wage theft
It's entirely wage theft. I guarantee those withheld tips would have found their way into the boss's pocket
Last story, he 100% blamed the sales lady.
For the restaurant story I'd tell people to put their complaints online alot of places have FB or websites enough bad reviews on those lazy ladies and they'll be fired. Unless they are the owners. I love finding new restaurants/ coffee shops in my town. One place had really good food but the service was so slow and bad it made me not want to go back. After seeing reviews that service had gotten better I went back and the lazy waitress was no where in site. There was a guy who was so wonderful. Places need good service and good food to survive
I agree, there is one particular restaurant here where I will never go back, because the owner was rude af when I complained about my food being cold and it took like 90mins, it was just insane. But in this story it is a case of bad management and they should be punished, not the waitresses.
Restaurant story - I had a acquaintance who owned a couple of upscale restaurants. He was getting complaints about some of the staff not being professional and lackadaisical while others were working their tails off. So he asked me to pose as a customer and go into the restaurant a few times and see what was going on.
I went in on some of their busiest nights. There were three servers (two girls and a guy, early 20s) who were working their backsides off while I could see a couple of guys just standing around, "trying" to look busy but obviously weren't. I'd see them just mingling around the floor, asking some customers how the experience was, then hide again in the corners.
On the last night, after the rush was over, I tipped each server $50 (this was the early 2000s) told them good work and to go home early that night. The two lazy workers came up to me, and started berating me that I had no athority to tell THEIR EMPLOYEES what to do. I looked at the employee, told tham not to worry, they will NOT be fired and enjoy the evening. I then handed the other two a letter. It was from the owner saying if I was handing them the letter, they had ONE CHANCE TO PROVE THEY DESERVED a job. They were to close the restaurant that night, JUST THEM. and if he wasn't satisfied when he came in the next morning, they were fired.
The owner was NOT satisfied. LOL
Boss: "Be careful what you wish for."
Translation: "Bro, I'm giving you a chance to back out of this decision, don't come crawling back to me when things get out of hand for you."
PLEASE cover more ask reddit. I love them, they are plentiful, and I hate listening to the computer voice channels. Your curration of the comments is better anyway.
Restaurant story: they legally cannot hold your tips from you. The tips are not their tips. They are YOURS. they cannot take your tips..
Just because it's illegal doesn't stop it from happening.
Yet wage theft is still the biggest form of theft x-x
@@carrollkuemper then sue
@@carrollkuemper illegal things mean that if they happen you can get justice. people do illegal things all the time and we can't stop it from happening, but we can get justice for it, if we report it.
Yes they can. They can't take them directly from you but they can pay you less so that tips essentially don't give any money. Being paid $2.10 plus a $5.10 tip is the same as being paid $7.25.
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!
First Story: So pretty much Smith unintentionally asked for himself to get fired. Smith probably didn’t think that he wouldn’t get investigated. Good thing Smith did get fired though; like rSlash said that man is dangerous
Second Story: Ugh, Kelly is the company snitch I see. She must be a real joy to be around (sarcasm). First off, why is Kelly telling out Kat's business? Second, what did Kelly think she would gain by constantly reporting Kat on the dress code? That said, OP played their cards right in dealing with this
Third Story: Don’t worry about it OP because the new manager and her friend won’t be working there very long. Especially with the threat of her witholding OP's tips? Yeah, no that manager and her friend will be jobless very soon
Fourth Story: Funny how this guy calls the lady a trainee but he made rookie mistakes that caused the store to lose a customer. Buddy should’ve just let lady continue what she was doing
Coming back to edit?
@@xX_Ghostie.Girl_Xxyeah
The second story is Kelly being a dumb cnt and borderline breaking anti discrimination laws...
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2023
For the fourth story, they salesman was trying to upsell and steal the commission of the saleslady. It just so happened that it wasn't successful and he screwed both of them over.
For the restaurant story, I can definitely relate to OP as I used to be in her shoes as well. If only I had knew that my former managers couldn’t withhold our tip (they didn’t let us take to-go tips unless it was cash) I definitely would’ve spoken, but it was my first job and I didn’t know any better. Hopefully OP is doing great in life!
Story 1: minor correction. Radiation causes harm to the patient, not radiology as a whole. Ultrasound for example doesn't use radiation and doesn't cause harm.
By definition, ultrasound is NOT radiology. Radiology is the study and/or use of high energy radiation. Ultrasound is not that.
@@wingracer1614 you are correct but because they are still performed by the radiology department, I didn't want people thinking that everything done by radiology (the department) is going to harm people (like radiation).
@@babelbrain Fair enough but anyone dumb enough to think ultrasound is going to kill them is probably also an ati-vaxxer and shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a hospital.
@@wingracer1614 I've had patients say stranger things to me 😆
Story 2: I love when bosses are like “We’re enforcing this new rule!!!” & then get rid of it due to the fact that he or she can’t accept it. But seriously, why try to enforce something that you’re gonna hate having in the workplace? It’s like begging your mum for a new toy & once she buys it, you’re like “I don’t want it anymore!!!”.

I would just go on the review sites or call the head manager of the store and complain that that salesman ruined my purchase experience because of his lack of empathy and unwillingness to take no for an answer.
Yeah if I were that person working for tips, I would ask for the statement on paper that the tips being taken away and then let her try. If she takes the tips, throw her ass in court.
I HATE up selling. If a salesperson tries it, I either buy less or walk out! (It's 'almost' as annoying as restaurants trying to get you to come and eat with them when you're just walking past. NEVER NEVER NEVER!)
IAM 50/50 .. I had someone take my cheese order and pulled out another..ooooh a taste? Nope she wanted to know how much I wanted without tasting it! Flustered I bought some..OMG wookie cave aged cheddar! Yum!!
Same as certain 'erb stores..IAM ok being asked if I want accessories.
Insurance is good for Some things..
I.e. my earpods.$10 a pair with $3 insurance means I can replace them 3 times!
I think if they ask it’s fine but pushing it is the problem. We all need to make money so I get it just don’t be rude about it.
The human impulse of commenting on a video with no views or comments just to say that they were the first. As well as myself giving in to this impulse

In terms of first story, x rays don't do damage unless you were doing x rays very often, like daily, it's why they're safe for patients but not for doctors since they'd be around x rays more than once a day, hence their heavy protection
Yeah I’m pretty sure it’s like 1 in every million gets cancer.
What?, rSlash talking about something he has no idea about, I'm shocked.........not
He just hears radiation and immediately assumes really bad.
He's a good narrator, he's just not too bright.
X-Rays can still do a bit of damage, even if not significant one. But the problem is that with the shoddy work Smith did, that meant the patient very likely had to unnecessarily get another round of X-Rays
@@someguythatblinks he didn't even say radiation, he referred to it as "any amount of radiology "
@@BeanManolo one x ray session amounts to the same amount of radiation as we usually get just living for 10 days, x rays wouldn't be done if they required you to intake a significant amount of radiation
I HATE it when there are floor sales associates that CONSTANTLY pester you to get ABC product and XYX insurance or add-ons.
Story 1 is not a doctor. He's an X-Ray Tech.
"Your tips are your money" Management is hoping that you're too busy and exhausted to even consider finding out how to file a complaint
"If you report it, they WILL get in trouble". I'd be shocked if the trouble was any more than to just return the tips, plus some fee. Unless it happens at scale, it's just a cost of doing business that's less than the profit they make stealing wages.
Op could have looked up some kind of policy in their handbook about having a personal matters interfere with the workplace I'm pretty sure there's one in every company. And Cat could have gone to HR and said that Kelly is harassing her before this whole thing got to that point.
Unfortunately things aren't always that straight forward especially the go to HR to report HR.
Happy New Years Eve to all! May 2023 bring us more R/ and good things for everyone
happy new years!!
Binocular story: classic mistake. The best upselling is giving your customer exactly what they want. I would much rather a customer spend less on an initial item or not buy it all and trust me so when I say "you should buy this expensive thing you really need" than try to upsell them on something expensive they don't need and then think that I'm a pushy untrustworthy asshat..
You create better customer relationships that way. I can't tell you how many times I've had a conversation where I said something to the effect of "Look I'm not going to lie to you. You could probably find this for way less price somewhere else and if that's what you want. I'm not upset with that. I'm not here to gouge you. I'd rather you be happy with your purchase and if inexpensive is what you're looking for then this may not be the best fit."
And yeah, sometimes they leave and buy it elsewhere, but I also got a lot of people who stayed and made some great sales because they knew I wouldn't blow smoke up their bum
You’d have to get a lot of x rays (like hundreds or thousands) for it to be dangerous, but the fact that this Smith person was that sucky at their job and acting all cocky on top of being a jerk is a good reason to be fired
One thing to note is that this person's actions can be harmful, just not how rslash thinks. Best case scenario, a bad scan wastes the patient's time and delays their care. Worst case scenario it could lead to a misdiagnosis. This is less likely however, since radiologists are usually very discerning when it comes to the quality of images they'll actually attempt to read.
Well not quite, the risk may be minimal for a limited number of x rays - Particularly with the new electronic plates. But the potential DNA damage occurs every x ray.
Note in Story 1: an x-ray tech is not the same thing as a radiologist! That guy still played himself, but as the XR tech his job is just to take the images properly, whereas the doctor (radiologist) interprets the image in a clinical context.
4th Story: I've dealt with people like that who butt in and try to steal commissions for themselves.
My go to is to be all eager to take the upsell, get things all ready to pay for it, before suddenly deciding I don't want to buy the item. When asked why, I tell them that some asshole came in and showed me that being rude to coworkers and ignoring what the customer wants is apparently what the store stands for and, well, I don't want to be a part of that. Now can you please go away so that the person being professional and providing excellent customer service can benefit instead?
If they refuse or try to grovel out some explanation, I just turn around and leave.
Rslash got it wrong, she wouldn't have been fired for wearing maternity clothes, but for NOT wearing them.
More fun facts about "tips." 1. In America, if you do not make at least minimum wage after calculating in tips, the company is required by law to pay you the difference. Thus, you can't legally be paid less than minimum wage. Contact the better business burrow if you have any issues. 2. Tipping in America took off during the prohibition in order to pay for illegal substances. So, if you have not received anything illegal you shouldn't tip. If you have a problem with that, see fun fact 1.
Story 4: Hey, if OP didn't want the insurance, then they don't want the insurance. It's not rocket science.
"A split second of RADIATION." not Radiology, that's the Field. lol
Last story: I loathe sales pressure and would walk out of the store in that scenario. I'd also let the manager/owner know what happened.
Once, when I was shopping for a car, I had done the test drive and had more or less decided I wasn't interested in the car offered. I was letting the salesman finish his spiel before easing myself out of the dealership when the Sales Manager came in and interrupted with the line "What do I have to do to get your signature on the line today?"
I looked back at him and said "For starters, you can stop using stupid pressure tactics like that." I left shortly after.
(BTW, when car shopping I _never_ close a deal on my first visit to a dealership. I always tell the car salesman this up front.)
Smith: “Oh my God, they investigated me back after I ordered a sham investigation on OP and I’ve been fired! How did I not see this coming?!”
I understand the “being British” in the last story, because I tend to be “midwest nice”, however it was obvious that this salesman was wanting her commission and I definitely would have asked, “so do you get commissions? If so, she was the one helping me first and I would like to continue with her.” Of course I would say this very grandmotherly sweet. 😉
Radiographers are not doctors, it’s not Dr. Smith.
Still enjoy listening to rslash everyday
The last story reminds me of a skit that this comedian did. It was a loop of the customer asking why does he need the extended warranty to the salesman relying in case it breaks to him say well if it's going to break I'm not buying it to the salesman saying it's not gonna break to him then asking about the extended warranty again and it loops itself. My dad and I quote this so much.
Woah woah wait WHAT?? 'Because I, your boss, don't understand the dress policy, you - the employee - must show up to work 10 minutes early - presumably unpaid - to get inspected?' all to avoid just telling Kelly to shut her gob? He's lucky he didn't get fired for that.
There’s… some truth to what you said about x-rays. In really high doses of radiation, like having hours of fluoroscopy time, or getting a couple hundred or couple thousand CT scans, there can be guaranteed or deterministic effects like radiation burns, hair loss, or necrosis of organ tissue, but those take extreme doses of radiation that are almost unheard of in diagnostic imaging (but can be radiation therapy risks, since high enough doses to kill a tumor do reach those levels,) and then at lower doses, there is a small risk of cancerous mutations (stochastic effects.). The likelihood of actually getting cancer from a specific low dose exposure, BUT the risk is never zero. For this reason, even at low doses, we do what we can to get diagnostic images that meet the objectives laid out by the ordering doctor with the lowest amount of radiation possible. On our end, having a high repeat rate is frowned upon, and something supervisors would work with us to try to decrease. On the doctor’s end, ideally they should only order what they really need, instead of letting the X-rays do all the work for them. I do frown upon it when doctors send me the “I don’t know how to clinically assess a patient, so do everything” starter kit. We can also collimate (limit the area of the body exposed to what we need to expose to get the picture) and put lead shields on areas of the body that are sensitive to radiation and not in the way of what we’re imaging, though those are somewhat situational tools. While your example of unnecessary cuts in the OR is more dramatic than having a higher radiation dose than necessary, radiologic technologists who can get the images with less radiation to the patient are definitely considered to be more skilled techs.
Last story: I'm a cashier, and I have a feeling that sales guy hasn't heard the phrase "the customer is always right". I know it's not *quite* true, but this is a situation where it should be obvious to go with the customer's wishes...
I am so disappointed in how that phrase was twisted and abused. The original saying is "The customer is always right in matters of taste" which was meant to say that if the customer wants to buy something rather than what you suggest, DON'T PRESSURE THEM. Let them buy the ugly hat. Let them buy the cheaper version. Let them decide on what they want or need, and help them get that thing.
And that version is absolutely correct. Working in a small local business, and being given the freedom to actually engage with customers like people and trying to get to know what exactly they want and being there to help them find it, it's rewarding. I never try to upsell my patrons or convince them to get the more expensive items. I just want to help them get the things that they want.
The threat in Story 2 was great in several ways:
1) Firing Kat would make Kelly look bad to her friend, like Dabney said.
2) It exposes her as the snitch in the office, meaning nobody is gonna wanna be around her if Kat gets fired.
3) Most importantly, it makes Kelly face the fact that she forced a pregnant woman to get fired and be unable to care for her baby. She might as well have stolen the milk out of that baby's bottle and denied Kat the insurance herself.
Hey rSlash, I work in radiology (x-ray tech too), and jfc: Smith was a tech, not a doctor. Technologists are trained specifically in positioning and radiation safety to create the most optimal and diagnosable image with as little radiation as reasonable possible.
(Now I'm curious what kinda shit quality he submitted to the radiologist)
11:13 i would quit, if my manager was like this, just because im a more competent employee doesn't mean i should be held to that much higher of an expectation to do 3 other people's jobs.
I am very petite and both of my pregnancies were extremely difficult on my body; I average about 100-115lbs, since I was fourteen. Within the first trimester, with my first I was down to 76lbs. The morning sickness was 24 hours a day sickness, EVERYTHING made me sick. I also couldn't afford specialty maternity clothes, so when I began to show and had problems with my regular clothing in my stomach area I purchased sweats to wear. I worked in an office setting, granted not one with much of a dress code, but I never had anyone bring my clothing up for discussion. For reference, I was also seventeen working six days a week from 7am to 6pm and going to night school. I was saving my money for my own place, car, furniture and the plethora of expensive baby items. My clothing was one of the last things I cared about, besides comfort. I don't know what I would've done if someone made it an issue. I didn't need maternity clothing, ever and my petite frame made them look ridiculous on me, plus if I didn't need it I couldn't find a legitimate reason to buy something that I might find a use for about a month. Kelly needs to mind her own business unless she's offering to buy my new wardrobe.
Happy New Years eve everyone!! May 2023 be a blessing to all of you! & R/ may you continue to bless us with these stories for years to come! Much love to all of you! Take care n remember fireworks are fun but can be very dangerous let's not end up in the hospital for the new year! 🥰😘
Clarification. X-ray techs are NOT doctors. It’s a completely different level of training. Technicians attend like a 2-4 year school (military techs go to a special school). A radiologist INTERPRETS the radiographs and have an MD (at least 12 years of school… additional years if they have a fellowship for more specialized training) and they don’t take the images, the techs do.
Last story: I used to work in sales. I guarantee the guy was the manager and the girl who was about to make the sale had been reemed out by her because of her sales figures earlier in the day. I know this because my manager would reem me out for my sales figures then butt in on sales I was about to close, try to upsell, and either lose the sale entirely, or give the sale to someone else
3:03 um..is that even scientifically accurate?
Is that even legal to say?
I mean, bananas are radioactive, so is he saying bananas are dangerous too?
Riding on an airplane has a significant amount of radiation exposure, which is why flight attendants like radiologists) have special insurance or whatever covering increased risks from radiation exposure...so what about the warning never to fly?
Just to clarify, your rant about any amount of radiation causing harm is wrong. Radiation can accumulate and cause harm but one X-ray doesn't mean harm
In the last story I despise pushy salesmen or condescending ones. I have walked out or gotten a supervisor or manager when these jerks cross a line & issued a polite but succinct complaint. One idiot tried to tell me that woman only needs a .38 because they simply don't have the strength to handle a larger caliber handgun. Ha! Been around guns since I was 7 & quite proficient with them. Called over a different salesman & ended up buying a sweet 45 ACP I had been eyeing for some time & he got the sale not the idiot.Push back on these jerks & don't let them get away with their BS.
The last story I had a similar experience
it was when I was looking for a new car, I was looking at leasing one from my local car dealership I talked to the guy, Eventually I ended up changing my mind and he would not stop calling me or texting me,
I told the sales guy that I wasn't interested anymore than iPhone or vehicle and then if he calls me again I will report him to his supervisor
he stopped contacting me after that
Not all imaging done though the radiology department uses x-rays or radiation of that type.
The good news is though another radiologist can look at the same images taken that the first radiologist had seen. So there's no need for the patient to have to go back for more.
in the second story, i think Kat's mom was telling Kelly to try to get Kat fired so that she would have to come back to her instead of living with her boyfriend.
3rd story: Man, I know that feeling. My supervisor are like OP's co-workers. MF would be chilling on the chair, while me and the other two employees are working our butts off.
Me and another employee, are already planning to leave. I will do it the second I get a better job, and the other employee as soon as he finish his classes
I wouldn't call x-rays harmful. Sure, it's dangerous if you're getting a x-ray every other day, several times today, but most people get maybe 1 a year, if that.
I would compare it to alcohol. Yes alcohol is dangerous in high doses but if you would drink one beer a year it wouldnt make any difference to your body the same thing goes with x-rays.
So showing xrays as something super dangerous is just fearmongering.
Exactly. In my experience, when I have gotten X-rays, they give you a lead cover to protect the rest of your body from the X-ray.
Like most things the dosage is the poison.
Story 2: I actually read the story because I could not believe what I heard. That lady was seriously complaining about a pregnant person *not* wearing maternity clothes when their baby bump is just starting to show. Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't maternity clothes meant for later stages of pregnancy when you can no longer wear your usual clothes comfortably? Meant to make the pregnancy more comfortable for the one that is pregnant? Complaining about not wearing maternity clothes makes about as much sense as complaining about a pregnant person wearing them. Meaning not at all.
Re the binocular story: I absolutely hate pushy salesmen. If a Salesman pushes me to buy something I don't want to buy or to buy something more expensive I will just walk out of the store and not give them business. If I come in there looking for something, leave me alone and let me look. If I need help I will ask you but if you're going to push me and push me and push me to buy something that I don't want to buy or was too expensive, then you will not get my business at all. There was one time when I was in the mall and there was a Sales lady trying to sell me some lotions and stuff and I told her that I was not interested multiple times, and she just kept trying to push me to purchase them, making all kinds of "reasons" why I would need it, and I eventually had to yell really really loudly " back off lady, I'm not interested!!! I yelled at her so loudly that everyone was looking at her and she had this shocked Pikachu face that I yelled at her to back off. But she didn't bother me after that LOL. And I know some of you may think that that's mean, but this lady was full-on harassing me and I kid you not following me through the store trying to get me to buy her products. That is not okay, that is harassment at that point
Assuming OP's Manager wasn't the senior most Manager in that Restaurant, OP should make sure the Top Manager gets a copy of the Complaint as well as a full report from OP and Trainee about what Manager and Coworker were doing when OP and Trainee were SLAMMED with customers...
Story 3 In most of America it's 100% *legal* to take away money from wages to compensate for tips, if that's what she meant. It's illegal to take them out enough to where she would be getting less then minimum wage (although there are easy ways at-will employers can get around that), but they can make it so that they essentially make nothing from tips except maybe as an advance payout up to a certain point.
Happy new years eve RSLASH, thank you for bringing us another year of content
Something that I think was missed was that the complaint wasn't "Kat was wearing maternity attire", but that "Kat was pregnant and not wearing maternity attire" which is even more ridiculous
Story 1: that job requires a associates degree. Definitely not a doctor.

2:41: I know it was unintended, but I got a good laugh from rSlash saying Radiology when he meant radiation from 2:47 on. I had a mental image of Dr. Glaucomflecken's radiologist about to do an X-ray, but before he starts the machine he pulls a knife on the patient.
I love your videos. You need to read the first story again because he wasn't a doctor he was a radiographer( person who takes x-rays). Radiologist is the person who reads the x-ray ( they are the doctor). So an x-ray tech aka a radiographer got himself fired.
Happy Last R/Slash video of this year guys! ❤❤
Dabney, I want to wish you, your family, and EVERYONE here a Happy, Healthy, and Prosperous New Year!
I'm looking forward to the new stories this year will bring.
Much Love to you ALL!😘😘💖💖🎉🎉🎉👏👏👏🌛🌝🌜
That one part in the last story about going home and thinking of what I could have said is so right
Story 2: rSlash, sometimes companies in the United States do take your tips and they put it into a tip share so then everyone working in the restaurant gets a share of the tips made in total that night, so if you made $100 in tips that's going to be spread out to however other many people there are plus whatever they got, so essentially yes they can steal your tips and they can do it legally in that case even if it is incredibly shitty to do. There are tons of places that do that. 😒
Also she said withhold tips, not take them, which is also legal in most States. You can't directly take someone's tips but you can lower their wage by $5/hour until the tips don't gain a net profit.
@@RRW359 That kind of thing 'should' be illegal. At that point there's no reason to work that job as they're no longer paying you enough to live.
@@MizuMing In my State it's actually illegal but I know 43 of them still allow it, although the amount they can withhold varies. I believe some States allow it and regulate it somewhat but federally they are allowed to pay $2.15/hour instead of $7.25 if the rest is compensated for by tips.
@@RRW359 I've seen this before yes, other videos on CZcams here have made mention of this and it seems super super illegal! A place of business should not force its staff to rely so heavily on tips to survive, they should pay their staff well. If you pay people next to nothing then you're going to get crappy service and people aren't going to want to go to your business because of it. There's a reason why people over in Europe don't tip, their workers get paid enough to actually live on, but in the United States in some states it's the exact opposite and I don't understand why. Are they so greedy that they can't bother to float a couple extra dollars in the direction of their staff so that the quality of their work remains high, so their profit margins in the end also remain high?
@@MizuMing I don't understand it either, I think it's mostly lobbyists wanting restaurants to make as much profit as possible. Also everything I've mentioned up to this point is legal but if it isn't bad enough it makes it even easier to do illegal stuff. Since at-will firing is normal in the US it isn't uncommon and tips mean employers can pay employees less, I've heard employers often basing people's employment on making the most tips so employers can pay them less. And if their job depends on if they get tips they may lie saying they got them when they haven't, allowing the employer to pay them under minimum wage (which isn't easy to live off anyways) without them even earning it back by tips.
Last Story: That guy DEFINITELY tried to steal that poor sales lady's sale because there was commission behind it. Especially since he kept begging her to get the insurance.
Story 3: the part about the manager and friend, this is similar to what happened to my dad when he went to take care of an order from a pizza place where I live. There were 2-3 people sitting at a table and the lobby was closed and they shouted that he needed to go to the drive thru when he was just trying to have one of them answer the phone so he could change the time on the family order. He wasn't trying to pick it up and they were being lazy. (That's the image they presented anyway)
Story 4: great job op!
Maternity Clothes Story:
Kelly was playing checkers, OP was playing Shogi
In last story I would have said something like "GTF out of my face. I was talking to her not you. So get away from me and let 'her' do her damn job" . Not I would really say that but I would ignore that ... and talk only to the lady you were talking to in the beginning.
Story 3: This almost sounds like my story, i worked in a Italian bakery when I was about 15 years old and the boss only paid us $7 an hour (minimum wage was 15 something). I was the waitress, had to clean and take orders, make the drinks, be the cashier, wash the dishes, do her personal errands and just a bunch of other stuff. It was so frustrating because she often yelled at us and she didn't even do much, just sat on her phone and sometimes went to the cashier. I left after a month without telling her and it has honestly been the worst experience I ever had. I'm now making my own money and could make $250-400 a day if I have time as a college student.
The last story pisses me off to no end. I'm in sales and one thing we never do here is upsell. The person walking in the door already had something in mind to buy. Let them buy what they want and not something they'll regret.
Story 1: not any amount of radiation, or 'radiology' as rSlash puts it causes harm to the patient. About 3 times the natural background radiation every year is harmless, our immune systems are well equipped to mitigate the effects (if other effects, such as immune-compromise or serious illnesses don't apply). X-ray imaging technology improved so much over the decades, that modern machines give way less radiation than the natural dose. You still should avoid getting an X-ray too frequently, but retaking a blurry image, even for a full body image is not a big deal anymore. It used to be though.
Hey Dabney, I must thank you for putting out videos every single day for us to be entertained by! I wish you and yours a happy new year! Greeting from Norway.
One of the few type of medecin who cause harm to the patient ?
They're a lot of type of medecin who cause harm to the patient. And one radio is not that dangerous. Taking a plane make you take a good chunk of radiation too.
Happy New Years Eve, y'all! 🩷🩷
Something tells me that last guy gets commissions and that's why he's trying to upsale OP so hard he's trying to supercharge his sales cus he's a horrible sales person
Low sales /no upsale =Fired
Low sales /upsale= "looks" good
High sales /No upsale = "looks" bad to management
High sales/ upsale= "looks" exceptional to management
That dude needs to be fired for fraud
13:39 damn that’s rough, hope he recovers from that condition 😔
Last story: as an formula 1 fan, I probably would just go without the binoculars at the race closest to my home which is still a few states away? (My closest track is circuit of the americas or COTA for short and I live in California though they will race along the Vegas strip next year) I would have just put my foot down bought the cheap ones from the lady cause she was clearly smarter at sales than whoever that other sales guy was

the biggest thing about wage theft is most people either don't know their rights, fear retaliation, or don't know how to correct it... or worse, they do. Imagine being able to challenge tip-theft but it requires a week stand-down, most can't afford that
Happy new years! Much love and many blessings to all!
"You really *should* get insurance; it doesn't take that much to knock the lens out of alignment"
"Geez, well if that that poorly made, I guess I won't bother buying them. Or anything else from this store, see ya"
That pregnancy compliance story -- that was some high tier 4 dimensional chess play there that was executed masterfully.
rslash, I wouldn't be so dramatic about xrays. 1 xray is about the same amount of radiation you would get from just being alive and hanging out on Earth for 10 days. They are perfectly safe so long as the machines are being used and maintained responsibly.
Wage theft may be the most common form of theft - tip theft is probably the most common form of wage theft.
There should be no special sub-minimum for tipped employees (even if a business is legally required to make up the difference).
"First, do lots of harm" -Dr. Smith
Happy New Year! Can't wait for a new year with R/
"They can't take a portion of your tips?" Ever had to tip out at the end of the night so the bartender and the host that get paid a regular wage get a portion of your tips? Always felt like they were taking my tips.
So Smith isn't a doctor. He's an x-ray tech.
