The funniest part of all of this, of Bob's Fridge especially is, all the animations always depict Mark and Wade as the delivery people. Which makes it 100x better.
The combination of Mark and Wade laughing uncontrollably, bob getting angrier and angrier, the shear level of incompetence, and everything that could go wrong going wrong is just beautiful. I was at work when I listened to this and I can only imagine how insane I looked, laughing so hard I wasn't making much noise, due to lack of breath. While also having tears running down my cheek
37:52 Like, just *THAT* system, alone, would send me into absolute livid-ity/uncontrollable rage "So those guys caused a problem and told you to contact us; ok so we'll contact those guys, they'll call you in around two days-ish, to then start up the "process," to set up a schedule, to *START* fixing the problem, *that is currently happening."*
I feel soooo bad for Bob. I was getting mad for him. I'd have gotten a lawyer and sued them. I kind of still want to and it didn't even happen to me lol. You deserve a reward for how calm you stayed
While Bob isn't entirely at fault, there is the very small aspect of it being his fault by not having enough knowledge about the house. And needing to learn about it mid-story.
@@serge263 I would t say he's at fault. It's a new house and it's impossible to know everything about the house right away. My bf has had his place for a year and he had no idea there was a ceiling light in his entranceway until last week. As professionals, the delivery people should have had at least some ideas abd should've checked before doing major work like this.
2:43 I used to wake up to a weird phantom voice that sounded like my mom screaming to me from the other side of the house and it'd scare the hell out of me
It's completely natural; sometimes our brains are just weird. I've heard people called me by my full name, out-loud, across the room when I home alone. It's like seeing shadows moving in the corners of our eyes; it's just a quirk of humanity.
yeah, this is normal when ( and this is a HUGE CAVEAT) you're falling asleep. They're called hypagogic hallucinations and happen when you're not quite asleep and not quite awake. Hearing someone call your name, hearing a big boom, and the sensation of falling are all pretty common. however, if you ever get hallucinations throughout the day or feel out of touch with reality, please please please talk to a medical and/or psych professional. a whole range of neurological or psychological things could be going on and its always better to get that looked at early.
When I was in welding school on night shift I was so out of whack that I started getting auditory hallucinations. I would complete a weld, take a break, and if I closed my eyes for a second I'd hear a whole ass conversation by people who didn't exist. Safe to say I'm doing better on day shift.
Bob : talking about buying a new fridge. Saving a 1000 bucks on it. Me : How expensive was this thing ? And if you save that much it got to still cost so much it better be a walk-in fridge :)
While I do enjoy the clay mation one, it removed the first part of the story and jumped into the part after Bob bought the fridge, so I like this one a little bit better.
I'm so glad you have this here because for some reason, at the moment, the different podcast players I have have both cut this episode off after ten minutes. Pocketcasts shows it as only being ten minutes long, and Audible shows the full length, but is only ten minutes when I actually try to play it
My mom just had a similar experience. Apparently they get payed per delivery so they really just want to rush as quick as possible to the next delivery. They damaged our water line and it was fixed by a plumber the next day that my mom had to hire. They came the day after to deliver the fridge and they literally refused to listen to my mom at all. They even started yelling at her at one point when she was asking about why they left the wrap on a part of the fridge. When the wrap was taken off it was scratched they where literally hiding it. They did a lot more bull shit but fuck it’s so frustrating. It was hard to hear how stressed out and upset my mom was especially because she’s usually really laidback with shit like this.
3:55 what mark is describing is actually a phenomenon that many people who have high stress levels or have anxiety experience. They’re called hypnagogic hallucinations and i get them all the time, like i really thought i was being haunted till i looked it up
I had a moment like what bob had with the trying to sleep thing, heard a voice say hi and it sounded like someone was right next to my head, was terrifying
As someone who's starting working in retail, in particular unpacking deliveries for the store, never assume the people involved know what they are doing. There has been so many paint spillages because the guys in the warehouse have put paint tins on top of an unsteady pile of boxes and by the time it gets to us, there is no way of us opening the cage door without the paint falling. Just today, I've had 3 or 4 cages where I've had to open the door slowly to try and make the descent of all the items more controlled so the items are less likely to break or ask someone to hold the cage door slightly open so I can take them out while they are still leaning on the door. One of the boxes that would have fallen had heavy glass objects in it.
Bob saying that these guys showed up over an hour early reminded me of when i took off of work because my grandmother said "hey the spectrum people will be here to replace the boxes, internet thing, and check our jumper boxes. They said they will be here on the 11th some time between 9 am and 3 pm, you will have to let them in and make sure they do it all good because i don't understand it so i am just going to my sister's". They guy showed up to do his job at fucking 7:39 am, mom had already left to drop siblings off at school and went to work. Grandmother and me still asleep, so he left a note saying no one answered the door at 9 am (covering his ass i guess). Grandmother called them and raged on her way up to her sister's that day, and said they were coming back out by 5 pm that day. They didn't show, like not even a spectrum van go by. The next day they called and said "your spectrum technician got into a life threatening car accident at-driving to a customer's house so your upgrades will be scheduled at a later date" What the fuck kinda scammy shit is this "technician" doing that this is what they use as the cover story? 🤬 Like fucking god damn
We work in a lowes. Not appliance department but in paint department if you call from a number that is used is someone’s membership profile it will display a the name. Most problems with orders is word of mouth so most likely they did know that you were pissed and didn’t want to deal with it. Most lowes are severely understaffed; not excusing it but this is what we know (washington state)
Randomly thinking bout this story again and coming back to it. Sorry bob it's just so so funny. I'm like bob , very calm and good demeaner but at some point to much stuff happend's like the idiots he had to deal with here and you just mentally break down and feel like exploding.
Their contract may have changed so they can only publish the podcast with who produces it. Or it may have been a mutual agreement amongst the three of them, but given that none of them have talked about it or made an announcement makes me think it’s something to with a contract/something legal.
Where did you find the original audio? for this i thought they privated the original video this is a good video respect to you from one small RU-vidr to another small RU-vidr
I haven't run into audio fading in and out with my Spotify app! The only time audio pauses for me is when there's supposed to be an ad break, but the ad doesn't come in for whatever reason 😂
I would have absolutely taken the fridge with the dent. I mean. It’s a dent. And I’m a clumsy person. The fridge would have more dents after it would be installed. So I’d be fine with it.
Most people wouldn't. Not when buying the largest, most shiny *brand new* appliance in your kitchen. In the first home you've ever bought of your own! It's not like a dented toaster or something, it's the fridge. Which you're hoping will last for YEARS. Having a dent right on the front would bother the f outta me and draw my eye every time I walked out to the kitchen. Maybe you'd accept, but most people who are capable of being assertive and reasonable would refuse delivery and demand a replacement.
Pal, I'm pretty sure Mark, Bob and Wade were VERY clear about stealing their content and reuploading it. I think I need to give them the link to this video and let them deal with it as they see fit.
@@TheTemplarBunny What? By agreeing they don't want their content uploaded without their consent you Twitter twit? You know that can be considered stealing right? And that it IS possible for them to have legal action done? Just want to be sure so that I don't think you're COMPLETELY stupid.
