    My husband and I own a business. We had an employee who we had to let go because he was taking plumbing parts from our inventory without signing them out and then using them to moonlight. A couple of weeks later we got a call from the police letting us know that the ex employee was driving a vehicle with one of our company vehicle license plates. He'd stolen it from one of the parked spare vans out back. Cops went to his house and found over $10,000 worth of our inventory in his garage. Talk about being robbed blind!

    I had a coworker who was super entitled. One night, I was working alone with her, and realized that she was taking 1 call for every 5 I did. Told her that she needed to pick up more calls. After that, she became super hostile towards me. Eventually, she started telling people that I was a devil worshiper, then was promoted to the anti-christ (I literally didn't do anything to her, besides that one confrontation). So, I bought devil horn hair clips and started wearing them to work 😂. Woman was in her 60s and had a terrible work ethic.

      @deadsetondreams1988 Před 10 měsíci +11

      They didn't call me those names but I had a coworker start making up lies about me as well. The place I worked at had several departments and I worked in a few including jewelry. The manager of jewelry was an awesome older woman who was wanting to retire soon and wanted to promote me to become the jewelry manager when she left because she new I loved doing certain things over there. Especially the ear piercings!
      There was another coworker that literally no one liked she was one of the laziest people I've ever met and worked with and she was older than me. I think she was around my parents age but I can't remember exactly how old. She literally called out just about every single day. We hardly ever saw her and when she did decide to show up she would talk the whole time and complain when other staff called in which was so funny and ironic. But she'd always kiss the main manager's keisters nonstop so they overlooked a lot of it.
      She was pushing to become jewelry manager too because she thought it would mean less work for her but everyone knew the manager wanted me to do it. She verbally expressed to me and others that I was next in line when she retired. The other employee who wanted the position started spreading rumors and lies about me taking extra breaks and talking to others all day instead of working. She always said I was sneaking into the back and talking nonstop to my boyfriend. I did start dating someone who worked in the backroom but we only hung out if our breaks/ lunches happened to coincide or outside of work. We were respectful and didn't let our relationship interfere, we also worked shifts that varied greatly. I normally closed at either 10 or 11 pm and he normally started work at around 5 or 6 pm. So I never really saw him while I worked XD She was telling on herself and pretending that I was the one doing it but the managers knew I was a hard worker and that she was lying out her...mouth lol
      To describe how hard I worked there, there was a horrible snowstorm one day and I was the only one who showed up for my shift and I lived the furthest away from the store. On the way home the snow was so bad that it was over the hood of my car and kicking up on my windshield, I had to stop every foot or so to wipe off my front window. I got into a car accident .4 miles from my house but we got a tow truck early enough and I still went to work my shift the following day.

    • @jeanams07
      @jeanams07 Před 10 měsíci +12

      This is exactly why I hate hearing from Boomers that the younger folks have such a horrible work ethic... Laziness runs across all generations. My husband who was born in 1980 owns a shop manufacturering custom K9 equipment, like everything they use to train K9 police dogs. It's not easy work, but he is fair and pays well if you are willing to put your head down and do a good job. He doesn't even set quotas or anything like that, where as pretty much all other manufacturing jobs do. He just wants you to keep improving and learning, and the more you do the more you get paid... period. And he is willing to teach these guys new skills like how to sew these massive fabrics and what not that can definitely help them make more with him or take the skills elsewhere. He has guys 10-15 years older than him that just are so extremely lazy and unreliable. And most of them don't have other options because he has given them a chance despite them doing hard time and things like that. One was on probation with an ankle monitor, where all he was allowed to do was go to work and be at home, and he still could never show up on time and always called out at least once a week. He got fired and then went back in because the only reason they were allowing him to be out at all was to work. He would rather go back to jail than just show up and do the work. It's really just unbelievable.

    Was manager at a gas station. Fired an employee (E1) for selling cigarettes to an underage friend of his. One night, I'm at home and can't sleep. I have a gut feeling about something and could not stop the feeling. So I got dressed and went up to the store. Another employee (E2), was "working", but he was taking a rather long smoke break with the employees from the attach fastfood place, I walked right into the store without him knowing. I went to the office and started looking through security footage. E2 was hardly working his whole shift. I was about to go let him know he's getting written up for not working his shift. Right before I open the door, E1 walks into the store and grabs beer. E2 sells the beer to E1. I quickly check the employee records to make sure I was right that E1 is under age. I walked out to talk to E1 and E2. Both were shocked. I banned E1 from the store and fired E2.

This is so gross to me now but i was 15 when i started and didn't know better. I was taught to keep the soda from foaming over the sides of the cup to put my index finger in the cup to the 1st knuckle while filling the cup. No gloves. No one wore gloves ever. Me being in the soda area we had a sink and i washed my hands a lot. Sticky stuff when dried. The only 2 other sinks were the 1 in the bathroom and the 1 in the prep/freezer/storage area. The cooks didn't have 1. They just worked through the busy time wiping their hands on the same towel used by all of them for even their sweat. Its hot in there and your packed together. The towel would be put in bleach overnight, rinsed out in the morning then back in the kitchen for another day.

One day I caught him coming up the back stairwell and acting shady. So instead of trying to keep up the whole work load myself, and getting reamed for not being able to keep up both of our duties, I asked the security at the store to review the tapes. Yeaaaaaa he was immediately fired. He’d clock in, work a few hours until I got there, and would leave out the back stairwell to the mall shopping center, coming back to when he had to clock out.

    Pro McD’s employee tip…ask for light salt or no salt on your fries, and you’ll get fries fresh from the frier. If you ask for light or no seasoning on your meat, you’ll get a fresh from the grill beef patty. This is something I do to this day even though I haven’t worked there in over a decade.

    *Charlotte, I'm 60, and I was homeless for awhile in Arizona...maybe 6 months. It was due to a corrupt state agency that was finally uncovered, but too late for the damage done to my family, me, and many other families. Then went back to NJ; I had to be homeless 5 months, in order to get a housing voucher. But I've worked from age 7 til the accident in my early 40's that messed up a foot, a wrist/hand, and did a number on my back/hips. But still get treated like I've contributed nothing, for being on Medicaid. I spent a decade as a Corrections officer in Az prisons, was a cook/baker for over a decade, plus various other jobs. But now folks are shocked I was homeless at one point. You cannot judge a book by it's cover, and unless you have a large network of family AND business connections, when something knocks you fully down, getting it all back is not feasible doing alone or with just a few helping now and then. I AM Jerry. I'm happy Jerry's intelligence and abilities are finally realized, acknowledged, and rewarded.*

It was the peanut dip which also had chilli in it. I had to end my shift early and my colleague who was holding my hair back while I was emptying my stomach had to call my husband to take me to the er. Fun times.

    Worst employees? HO HO HOLY shit, do I have a story. So I’m from a small town in Massachusetts and very blue collar based. Our community loves giving people as many job opportunities as they can. The city’s parks department had a job program for high schooler’s and college kids looking for a summer job. It was a pretty chill job. All we had to do was make sure the kids in the park had stuff to do, clean up any trash and operate the water area. My first year I worked there was the summer before my senior year. I had two girls I worked with, I’ll just use their initials. E and D. E was very friendly and kind to me . D, oh HOOOO D. I’ll just get to the point. This girl was a bitch. She pretended to be nice to me when she really just made fun of me because of my autism. E tried to stand up for me, but I also don’t blame her for giving up because D was so relentless. It also didn’t help that I got catfished at the time and my nudes leaked. And everyone I went to school with saw them. Including my coworkers. She spent the rest of the summer making fun of my… size, and called me “Little Pepee.” She even took a lighter and melted the buttons on my DS while I was in the bathroom. Pretty much ruining it because it also stopped the battery from charging. But thankfully, she fucked up😏. You see, D decided to be an idiot, which is 24/7 for her, and roll up some, as me and my musician friends call it, jazz cabbage during our shift. In a public park in front of children. Apparently someone noticed, reported her, and my boss promptly fired her entitled obnoxious ass. I’ve now just graduated from college with my associates in music after 6 years of studying jazz guitar and I’m feeling pretty good about where I am in life rn. Last time I saw her, she was working at Wendy’s. And she had to take my order. HAHAHAHA how the universe can give you a win now and again.

      Some well deserved Schadenfreude! It's nice when we actually get to see bad people get some comeuppance.
      This video is reminding me of so many characters I've worked with over the years.
      By far, the dumbest was back in the mid 1980s. I worked as an assistant designer at a high-end childrens' clothing company. Our clothes were sold at Neiman Marcus, Nordstroms, Macy's, etc. I handled ordering supplies to make buyers' samples, did line drawings for our catalogues, coordinated work between the sample room and production, fixed mistakes in patterns and changed some design elements to make manufacturing more cost effective... a little bit of everything. I had worked before as a professional tailor, so I understood clothing construction well.
      I was assistant to 3 designers and needed some help, so the boss hired a first year college student who was majoring in "marketing". She's very beautiful, and that year she was a runner-up in the Miss Texas beauty pageant. She was sweet, likable, but had zero common sense. She was used to others doing everything for her and she could barely read. She reminded me of a golden retriever puppy, very cute and likable but always getting herself in dangerous trouble!
      One day, she was doing some filing and had all three lower drawers pulled out on the filing cabinet, She was just pulling the top drawer out as I was running towards her, yelling "NOOOO!" I threw my shoulder against the front of the cabinet just before it would have fallen on her. It had become my full time job to protect her from herself! I never said anything because I didn't want her to be fired, but she was fired the next day. Why? Because she did the exact same thing with the filing cabinet drawers the next day, but right in front of the boss who knew she had done this same thing a day before but obviously learned nothing from the experience.
      She was only there for 3 months, but managed to total two expensive cars her parents bought for her. Her parents were filthy rich, she's gorgeous, so I imagine her life went smoothly. She's probably married to some billionaire friend of her rich daddy's. I just hope she's happy and safe. She really was a nice person.

    The last job I worked was because a friend of mine had said they were really hurting for help, it was as a kitchen aid so I was like well I can make it work …and I did! I never took any breaks and sometimes I would even skip lunch because if it was a rush time, I wasn’t going to abandon everyone. If I didn’t have time to eat, I didn’t have time to eat no biggy whatever. Eventually I fell into a routine, I would get all of my work done and then have free time to do whatever or help people out if they needed me to. But for some reason, a coworker took total issue with this, and never told me about it. She acted like we were friends and we got along fine. We talked about our kids, and generally just life and whatever. Then one day I clocked out but before I left, I had gone into the bathroom. She must’ve thought I left though because I could hear her talking crap about me to the new hire saying how slow I was saying how she always has to jump all over me to get me to do my job saying how I’m just such a space case and calling me names … Sooooo, I quit that day! I walked out of that bathroom and put in my two week notice, because if they didn’t need me and I was such a burden on her then why am I even bothering. I could be at home with my kids? I didn’t have to have a job. I was a stay at home mom, I took the job because I was under the assumption that they needed help … But according to her, I was just making more work and making it harder for everyone overall and that I was just a burden 🙄… So the solution was simple, and I said ✌️☺️ peace out bean sprout! I don’t need to be treated like garbage by anyone, least of all high and mighty cook, that thought she was above everyone else, because of her position in the kitchen.🤷🏻‍♀️

    I worked at burger king a long time ago. The hands thing is normal. The time went off every thirty minutes and people were pretty good about hand washing. Then they tried to introduce wearing gloves and quickly discarded that when it was noticed that people never changed gloves when switching from different activities. For example, someone would be making whoppers and need something from the walk in. They'd touch the door knob, the shelves , anything that was in the way and come back and continue making food wearing the same gloves. Someone would be changing the trash and next thing you know they are back on the whopper board with the SAME GLOVES.

      ​@@TraceyBoyland A Subway staff member argued with me about the gloves before when I was a customer. I was vegetarian at the time but if meat touches my meal I could tell because it makes me sick. I've been vegetarian since 2006 and vegan for a few years now. So my body can't digest meat anymore. The Subway had a line and they were trying to speed through everyone quickly but they weren't changing their gloves in between. So they were mixing everything; touching meat, veggies, bottles, reusing the same knives for every sandwich without washing it in between, etc.
      The person ahead of me had every type of meat in their sub and the person went to make my sub afterward. I asked them nicely if they could please change their gloves before making my sub and explained that it would make me sick if they didn't and they started arguing with me about it. I said you just touched most of the meat products from their sandwich before touching everything else. They argued saying they don't if it's too busy, it wasn't a big deal, etc. But they reluctantly changed them, made my sub, then practically threw it at the person ringing everything up.
      If I was by myself I would have just left but I was there with my family who were ordering their subs after me. After that incident, though, if I ever went to Subway, it was when they first opened so I knew everything was freshly prepped and not mixed with other stuff. But I eventually stopped going there altogether. I get being pressed for time with working with food preparation jobs but you shouldn't argue with someone telling you they have a food sensitivity or allergy. As soon as they bring you a restriction you either comply if you can or let them politely know you cannot oblige with their request. Their arguing with me made them take even more time since that was their excuse in the first place.

It's a company policy & is really only done in the US at all because we want the false sense of security it gives us that our food is more sanitary. It's a myth created by fast casual restaurants like Chipotle, Moe's & Subway, where people can literally see their food being prepared, to make them feel better about the fact that workers can't leave the line to wash their hands often enough to avoid cross contamination. I promise you, nobody in any closed restaurant kitchen is wearing gloves to prepare your food.

But if they're going to cancel staff discounts when they hand in notice, that needs to be stated when they start. I doubt it was 50% though. I owned a mobile phone store and I sold products to my staff at cost price which also included GST - goods and services tax.

And the drama, everyone knew who was sleeping with who, including top management.

    As someone who worked at a different fast food place before and after gloves were forced personally I would prefer it with hands on many cases because people are more likely to wash their bare hands than they are to wash their hands and change their gloves. I literally saw some people try to wear the same pair of gloves THE ENTIRE DAY! Or they might just wash their hands with the gloves still on. I saw people so far more gross things with gloves than without them and I worked there longer before the glove rule got implemented. I don’t know about anyone else but if people aren’t following sanitary codes for their own personal hands they aren’t going to do it when gloves are involved either. I myself am more likely to touch things with gloves on that I wouldn’t just touch with my bare hands. Now don’t get me wrong gloves are a great PPE tool but that’s only if people use them the correct way and the majority of people don’t. The same thing is true when people were using gloves in public after Covid happened things like masks and gloves are only protecting people if the people using them use them right!!

    Used to work in a Deli at my grocery store (changed departments), The amount of times I've had to slap utensils out of coworkers hands, jump in front of them, throw fresh gloves at them, or snatch cut meat from their hands before they served it just to save the customer is astounding. They would drop a utensil, and pick it right back up and try to serve the customer with it IN FRONT OF THE CUSTOMER. I would fly over there and smack the spoon out of their hand before they could dip it in the food, ordering them to get a fresh spoon.
    They would pick their nose, cough, and generally touch themselves before touching food in front of the customer. And the customer would take the food, but then put it back on the counter and leave due to witnessing that. Now these ppl would talk absolute shit about me, that I was bossy, annoying, and mean. But I'll take that as I was only being that way towards those specific ppl to protect the customers.
    Thankfully they'd each find their own demise at the job, one was caught stealing from the cash register. Another had been so disgusting in front of customers, including the managers, that they picked a bullshit reason to fire her (over a coffee cup- which is FREE to employees but they needed an excuse and no one did jack to stop them bc tho she was sweet she was just unsanitary).
    Not to mention allergies too, I would always make sure those with allergens were safe by completely sanitizing what was needed for their order no matter how much it held up the line.
    They're all still unhappy I changed departments, and no one I worked with could stand being there without me so they all followed suite. Even the customers come to me saying, "I don't feel safe getting my food there since you left that department," and I'm like, "I know, I'm sorry." Every time I have to visit that part of the store I see them just dicking around and our orders aren't done bc they just don't care and don't want to work, but then complain that everything is backed up specifically bc they dicked around til it was time.
    But there were also moments I had to protect my coworkers, you'd be surprised just how many incel ppl, or just perverts in general, get off on subjugating women, by abusing them mentally and emotionally. Who would say things like, "I can get you fired" with a sneer. Our girls would run into the freezer and cry. They would cause messes and order our girls to get down and clean it so they could watch and berate them with a smile. So whenever I saw it happening I would take over for them. Our girls were also sexually harassed by ppl of all ages, and we got those perpetrators banned too. Some of them even got punched in the face, which was worth the suspension.

      My favorite job ever also had a shop dog, owned by my bosses. One day, my cat (who loved car rides) stowed away in my back seat and I drove all the way to work before I discovered him. I was 30 miles from home, so asked my bosses if I could take him back home and work extra to make up for it. They had met "Spaz" before and loved him. He was a big chill tomcat and very friendly. They insisted on letting him stay and see how it worked out.
      I went next door to 7 Eleven and bought cat litter and food, made a litterbox out of the box top from a case of paper (we were a print shop). Spaz had never been around a dog before, so that was the big test. Could he get along with Miss Foo, the owners' precious Pekingese Princess?
      He walked up and licked the pup on the head, the dog flopped on her back, asking for belly rubs. They were instant BFFs so Spaz became a regular at work. Some customers would stop by just to visit those two. We never had any problems because of them.

I work for a decently sized company and I work with a guy with memory issues and he sometimes forgets to give change. Management come down a lot because they can see how many transactions we do against the amount of times the drawer is opened and his rarely adds up due to the amount of no sale openings for when he is reminded for change.
