@@hopper1189 I didn't do it in one go, and I skipped a few boring stories. (I also watch these videos at 1.5x or 1.75x as that's closer to the speed I read)
My buddy got fired on the spot for putting in his 3 weeks notice, immediately got a new job making way more money with way better benefits. *Sometimes* the worst thing you'd think could happen is actually a positive 💁♀️
@@PlaneCrazy1999 it can be an issue if the place doesn't have an "at-will employment" policy. Most places that do this usually have such policy and are able to fire you on the spot. Even if it's directly after you give notice.
I didn't realize at-will meant they could do that. I knew it gave them freedom to treat you as expendable but didn't realize THAT was okay. What a load of trash.
@@PlaneCrazy1999 it was pretty eye opening that a company can dispose of you without a second glance, especially for how much he put into his work and how long he'd been there. Huge misconception that your job is "one big family"
@@pianomanhere I had a moment when I had Covid when I started asking for Mucinex and the guy upsold me to add pearls, prednisone, an antibiotic, sore throat lozenges, and an inhaler.
I work security at a mall and one of the really nice restaurants in the front had a customer call and ask if he left his wallet there. The managers told him that them that they couldn't find it and gave his phone number to security. I was the one mediating because on my shift there isn't supervisor and we always changed up who had the phone. I just so happened to have it that night. I informed the man that he should call the card companies about any transactions. He gets a hit and we roll back the cameras. His waiter stole his wallet after he left it there and bought hundreds of dollars worth of mall gift cards and gave them to store employees. Found out later she did all this because the guy didn't tip.
I worked for a mid-sized accounting firm, for the first couple years they didn't have an HR Department, just a couple people that handled HR matters, eventually they grew large enough to create a formal HR Department. My job at the time required me to travel around the country doing audit work, because of that I missed some "mandatory" training, got a nasty letter from HR informing me I was immediately suspended without pay for "noncompliance" until a hearing on the matter could be scheduled. I forwarded the email to the owner of the firm (which happened to also be a close friend and the guy who had hired me.) His response which he CC'ed Human Resources on was short and too the point "No you're not. Thanks for all you do." Never heard another thing about it.
Well after a 7 year battle with a medical issue i had to go back job hunting. Being on welfare i could not even afford to buy proper clothes for a interview . I eventually got a interview and told the person on the phone that i would dress as proper as i can but on welfare i could not afford new clothes. The lady understood ,i went to the interview and got the job. They were so nice they even gave me a advance on my pay so i could go out and buy proper clothes for the new job.
Work party is the saddest combination of words in the world. If i want to party, i do that with my friends. Not fucking middle aged Bob from accounting
I have never gone to a work party, and I don't think I ever will. If I can avoid it, I will. I'd much rather spend an evening on the couch with a pizza and a few cans of Coke watching movies. And if I still got room afterwards, I can have as much wine as I want.
I'm going to counterbalance this by saying I've been to work parties when I worked in a restaurant and they were fucking lit. It depends on where you work tbh.
Depends on the place. I used to work at this pizza place where the gm Kevin would share shooters with us. Kevin was a chad. He got baked all the time too. And the crew was probably one of the funniest groups of people I've ever met. We were all homies. Plus my best buds also worked there so that's even more of a plus.
My stepmom was a manager at a McDonald's when they were in Walmart, one of her assistant managers always complain that the safe was under every time she worked and couldn't explain it. Well my stepmom had a good idea what was going on instead of trap for her, she made sure the safe was $50 over one night when closing and that assistant manager was opening the next day she called to complain that it was under yet again stepmom went in and told her she was fired.
@@HazooToo money safe. Most the money a restaurant makes is kept in a safe that only certain people (like your main manager, shift manager, and maybe assistant manager) has access to so they can either put money in or take money out to stock registers with change. Every shift, you have to do a count of the safe and make sure it matches the order tickets you have. It being under means there is money missing, which usually means someone’s stealing from the franchise. You can guess where this leads.
Bartended for 6 years... the person that commented on the guy being fired for stealing the bottle of grey goose was spot on. Refilling a liquor bottle with anything (water or even the same liquor: ex. taking two bottles half full and consolidating to make one full bottle ) can/will lead to your liquor license suspended/confiscated. This is usually handled at the states LCB level but can be upgraded to include ATF. Any owner of a bar will drill this into any employees they hire due to what's potentially at stake. So the fact that the OP thought there was a reality where it was perfectly fine to refill a liquor bottle with water for display purposes means there's a very high likelihood the story is fiction. He probably only said Grey Goose cause it was the most expensive liquor he could think of. Further supportive circumstantial evidence... No bar owner in their right mind would risk loss of license and major fines to refill a Grey Goose bottle that still looks exactly the same whether it's full of water, Grey Goose, or empty. Considering both water and the vodka is clear.
i dont see how anyone in their right mind likes grey goose. I tried that stuff and it is by far the most disgusting and horrible shit i have ever had. Just like steel reserve and nasty ice. Taste like rat piss. i have had liquor and beer all over the world. The best was a beer from Brisbane, Australia and it was called Black Wattle. The best tasting stuff you can possibly have. Fuck grey goose and the people that drink grey goose. we cannot be friends if you drink gray goose

Right? Donating to charities thru a store is a scam All that money their customers donate they get to claim as a donation from the corporation and write it off on THEIR taxes, not yours
I was once reported to HR twice by outside interlopers for sexual harassment / creating a hostile environment. Once was when we were talking about the previous weekend where we all went out to our favorite bar, which was named Third Base, and how we took a female coworker to a hotel afterwards to sleep off the booze. The other time was shortly after when I asked another coworker if they had seen my dongle for installing some software. It was completely innocent and no innuendos were intended on our part. Luckily the HR dept was pretty understanding about the whole thing after I showed them the website for the bar, my big book of dongles in my cube (and the definition of the word) and how the coworker didn’t want to get a DUI for driving 30miles while pissed faced drunk and had planned ahead for this outting with the hotel (we walked her there so she didn’t have to go it alone). I really didn’t like the treatment I got from other departments after that, though.
Many years ago, I received a phone call from another supervisor, crying, informing me that our subordinate, Jenny, was killed at a gas station when she was struck by a truck while filling up her car. I was told that her sister called and informed the store that she was dead. I immediately identified two problems with this scenario: she didn't have a sister, only an adult son who lived with her, and that she didn't have a car and took the bus. When I pointed this out, I was immediately called a monster and said I had no soul and was a pariah for a week. No local news surfaced about this accident either. I didn't buy it. The store held a memorial and took up a collection for her son and "sister" and corporate was involved. Well, after this week all this mourning and hating on me, Jenny shows up for work. She called in her own death as her "sister" because she thought it would be funny. She didn't understand why the regional vice presidents of operations and human resources who were there finalizing the donations terminated her on the spot.
I once called HR because my boss at my first real job threw empty food cartons at us and trashed the site. All of this was due to us not being at the sample cart in a dead mall with only 20 people walking around at night, and instead stayed in the store and helped the people who came in. HR didn't do anything, because he was friends with the higher ups. Yet I was given a write up for "not taking out a trash can one day". And was essentially given the ultimatum of either keeping my job title and take the write up, or be demoted. That's illegal as fuck, yet they got away with it.
Remember, HR is not for the employees. HR is there to protect the company first and foremost. I have been in a management position at two different companies and was amazed at the favoritism shown towards some of those in management. Both times I had worked my way up to a supervisor position. I had always thought that HR was for the employees but quickly learned their true role.
HR is a weapon a double-eged weapon that if wielded correctly can be an effective tool. Though, for @Shadowdroid776, if he's trashing the property that's a problem for the mall and HR (and Mall Management) hates it when a manager is removed from an open business location by the police.
Where I currently live is Pahrump a small town near to Las Vegas(State of Nevada, Nye county and the only supposed county where prostitution is legal and Las Vegas is illegal to prostitute because is in Clark county). I learned that HR's from many companies are not going to make a workers rights a priority to protect and them and resolve any unfair treatment from staff in a higher position or staff that has been there longer than a new employee. Only because I don't have a certificate that says I have the skills of a professional handyman and I am not a regular labor, it doesn't mean I am a regular worker that can only perform a low position labor duties... BUT, here in town its a very regular unethical nasty habit for employers to ask you what are your skills and during interviews after going through the job application that has been filled out giving them an idea of what you are going to say regarding your skills they will double ask you what you know and then tell you that your pay will depend on how fast, the amount of different tasks you can perform, and your efficiency is after doing so. Ok, so then... why in the fμ¢k do u ask me what are my skills and my knowledge when I clearly described them in the job application I filled out and specially mentioned that I don't have a certificate just like many licensed business out here that have a foreman, manager and other higher position employees in charge of tasks that I have proven to do better than their foreman's in many different times and companies. Why tell an employee he will be paid depending on their performance when they can't afford to pay a person applying for labor that can be assistant manager performing Labor and foreman tasks. Please don't ask for my knowledge and feel like I'm going to embarrass myself when the outcome will be me shutting up your mouth, hurting your ego, and making you look stupid, then after that never ask me to do tasks you know I'll perform without a problem and think I'll do them, well your fμ¢kiΠg stupid because I was giving a labor's pay and position, its not my responsibility to do other people's work. Ok? People have shit in their brains nowadays, do you as an employer or a person that has the duty to hire people, do you think that a stupid certificate that says someone is qualified will really be what that piece of paper says they are??? Ur answer is NOPE and ALSO THINKING THAT THERE'S NOT A PERSON THAT WILL TELL YOU THE TRUTH IN YOUR FACE BECAUSE NOWADAYS EVERYBODY LIES ABOUT THEIR SKILLS MAKING YOU THINK THAT PERSON WILL TELL YOU LIES AS WELL DOES NOT APPLY TO ME, I WILL SHIT IN YOUR FACE AND IN YOUR HOUSE FOR THINKING I AM LESS THAN U AND THAT I'M NOT CAPABLE OF PERFORMING ANY WORK'S TASK I AM ASKED TO DO, SIMPLY IF I DON'T GET PAID FAIRLY I WILL ONLY HONOR MY HOURLY PAY AND WORK AT A RITHM THAT IS FAIR FOR MY PAY. Employers need to take lessons on how to be a coherent manager or whatever they are to actually have an idea on giving orders, and the lessons should be once a week for the whole time they are employers and employees should be informed next day if their employer attended to the lessons or not, if not then they deserve a punishment for being irresponsible employers. * MORONS=PRESENT EMPLOYERS
The guy who threw away flatware in the garbage, I cannot even believe this BS. I can't imagine what going on in their head that makes them think that was an option....
One of my coworkers at a small consulting firm kept a bread oven in his office, and he and 2 coworkers would bake bread every Friday and share it with the office. We got to make bread flavor requests.
I worked at a tech company. It started out as a carrier but morphed into a network management company and ended up building a centralized corporate operating system that handled everything from inventory to customer relations/orders to payroll. Everything. Because nothing existed that we could use at the time. Eventually everything was completed so the need for programmers, coders and developers ended and they started laying off those types as they were no longer needed in such quantities. One of the developers was being let go so HR called him in for a conference/exit interview. HR placed a recorder on the table and pushed the record button. He whipped out his phone and put it on the table. They asked him what he was doing and he said if they could record the meeting he could too. They told him he couldn't. He asked where that was written. They couldn't find where it was specified and promptly ended the meeting. They went round and round for about 6 weeks and finally let him go without a meeting. In the mean time with the warning he was able to find a job in a different company and made a seamless transition into his new job.
I was a pipefitter/welder and I got to the point where I would not recommend anyone for a job because too many times the person didnt work out. Example; Good friend, we will call him Cheech, talked me into getting him a job as a pipe helper on a shutdown. They gave Cheech to me and I put him to work cleaning fittings. After a while he disappeared but I figured the foreman had needed him some where else. Four hours later the foreman asked me where ole Cheech was at and I said I thought he had come got him. Foreman said nope and that he thinks he is passed out in a port-a-john. I just groaned and told the foreman I was sorry for asking them to hire Cheech and I would take care of the problem. So I went over to the port-a-john, opened the door and sure enough theres Cheech, head slumped, needle hanging out of his arm and the other things he used to do what he did. I finally got him to wake up and told him to get on the golf cart with me. As we headed to the gate I told him to call someone to come pick him up because he was fired. He got mad at me for not clocking out and driving him home in my truck. That was the last time I recommended someone for a job. From then on I might tell them a name but I wouldnt vouch for them and it was up to the company if they hired the person
That's illegal, not joking, sleeping during a lunch is something you can do as long as you wake up on time. Them firing you for that is akin to firing you for not eating during your break.
2:31:00- that person has a very important point wrong. Once one party violates a contract, the contract is broken. "Taking the high ground" and keeping to it after that isn't showing superior ethics- it's being stupid.
2:19:00 1: I’m nothing close to a lawyer, but this sounds highly legally suspect. You may want to try getting legal advice before trying to get fired. I want to state again I am not a lawyer 2. My idea is to just simply stop caring about the job, if you don’t have plans show up (assuming job abandonment would be considered quitting) While there do minimal work. You either get fired or keep the pay while doing next to nothing. 3. I wrote this before going through the rest of the responses, so both of these points may have already been made.
40:00 bruh... Im a night supervisor at a dairy queen and some dips*** that I used to work with did that exact joke on me... I told the manager and she did nothing... I also found out like 2 months later that my position permisses me to fire him on the spot for that if I wanted to, but I didn't know that... Didn't realize it was such a common joke lol.
Had an amazing cashier, always took on extra roles, he was everyone's (supervisors and management's) favorite cashier, a horrible cashier started complaining about him, we investigated but never came up with anything and passed it off as the complainer lying again (she was always lying, obvious lies, then would deny making the lie), at one point I had to help at another store for a few months and when I came back both were gone, she had been fired for poor performance and he had been fired because he had been stealing tobacco and alcohol, he was drinking stolen liquor on the clock, the only one who had caught on was the cashier who cried wolf (she was still the worst lol)
An employee at a factory was in sanitation. He was supposed to clean equipment with harsh chemicals to eliminate germs. Took 3 times as long to clean anything. Wasn't lazy, just slow and incompetent. Bosses get frustrated because they didn't have a good reason to fire him. The CEO and several potential customers came to do a tour of the plant. He foamed the group with chemicals during the tour. Reason to fire him received. Plant manager got his ass chewed out big time.
Not exactly he, but my dad was reported to his dormitory’s head for being “racist”. The fact was they had an exchange student from an under developed country in africa (this was around the 60s and 70s). The guy wanted to cook some beef and had seen people use the shared toaster in the shared kitchen and had tried to cram the minced beef into it. My dad had stopped him and said “no no. That’s for bread only. Here, use the stove.” And proceeded to show the guy how it worked, pan and all, before the guy proceeded to turn on a hot plate and flopping the beef onto it (no pan included). He broke my dad when someone complained about smoke coming from the guys room and they discovered that he had made a fire pit inside his private room (these rooms were not big. Think only room for a single bed, book case and desk. That it. Apparently my dad was racist because he told him you can’t build fire pits inside and was picking on him for being black. Needless to say, my dad was no punished for this.
UNFORTUNATELY I was wrong .Higher education in American began recruiting young cavemen and women from all pockets of survival as early as 1963 . THIS happens to coincide with the year I was born which I find rather peculiar.
I had worked for a week at cheddar's in high school as a bus boy. When I was hired I told them that I'd have to be gone for 2 weeks to go on a tour of Europe. They said ok that should be fine. Put it in the schedule. I left for my trip and when I got two weeks later I wasn't being scheduled so I called and asked why and they were like "oh...well we didn't hear from you so we just terminated you".
Worked seafood at the local grocery store. Supervisor left a knife in the sink filled with soapy water. I got warned about being more careful when I got cut. Nearly needed stitches. I left pretty soon after finding a new job. This was one of many issues with her.
Thank God for the Security Guard seeing that. He probably saved children's lives and sanity. I feel nauseous from hearing that. I knew CP was bad enough but to know there is some freaks out there doing things so horrible to children the children die. That's a new waking nightmare I could have lived without the rest of MY ENTIRE existence
The guy who trained me for my current job kept talking about how much he loved doing Herbalife and how he believed it was such a good opportunity and how he believed it could replace getting a COVID vaccine… I haven’t reported it since I have no proof (couldn’t record the training call sadly) but it honestly felt super trashy.
I used to work as a dishwasher at a newly opened restaurant. They made these hot meals on a cast iron skillet and they were very hot. One of the cooks procceded to put one straight off the burner at my work station with out warning me. I noticed it and went to grab it to wash it. I grabbed it by the pan and promptly received 2nd degree burns to my right hand and couldn't work after that. I was fired because "I wasn't paying attention....."
I worked at a non-descript arcade for a little while. During one closing shift, where we were held especially late because the front desk was fracking incompetent, one of the girls who was at the front desk that day started complaining about how late we had to stay and said she was just gonna go home. While since she was on the team that MADE us stay that late, the manager on duty wasn't having any argumentative crap outta her. Fired right then and there. We were already understaffed as is, so you would know it's bad when people get fired.
I was fired from Toys “R” Us for daring to develop tendinitis right after Black Friday. Brought a doctor’s note and everything. If I had known I had the right to sue I would have. But I was an uninformed teenager with no support. I was cleared to work, just not at the register. That didn’t work for them so fired.
3:51 that's like the guy in the action movies that always like "when we get through this, i'm gonna change for the better" and then ends up getting murked like 5 minutes later lool
Not on the spot, but the same day. Was in training for a tech support position with Brother International electronics a few years ago. A lot of my fellow trainees had experience with AT&T's tech support center (relevant shortly). This one girl, W, decided to argue with the trainer, S, who was a chill, if not mildly weird (hippie) Army vet when we started software training. We'd started a short unit on wireless setup options, and W said something contradictory to what we were being taught and wouldn't back down when S tried to correct her. He pulled her into a small classroom/storage room and tried to have a convo about just learning what he was teaching and using prior experience later. She exited the room, visibly despondent and passively defiant. The hiring/floor manager, B, called W into his office, and she did not finish training. Sucked because she was one of the top 5 of the 20 or so of us.
Getting fired on your first day with a better secret shopper score than employees who've been there longer? Yeah, that some bs, but it does explain a few things. That owner deserves to lose his business. (roughly 58:00)
not hr but my boss had a small meeting. we were never allowed to wear headphones for safty reasons, had to wash our hands for safty, etc. this guy was getting yelled at so loudly other areas of our warehouse could hear him. finally boss taps his shoulder while the guy was on his knees. the guy removes his headphones gets up. he was fired on the spot. i was also the lucky guy to find a methhead asleep in the bathroom. i quit a few weeks later when a guy pulled a knife on me and i got super dehydrated in the spot i was working.went home and texted i quit to the boss. fuck that place.
@@giovanni6643 I'm assuming by 'here' you're American, by context. It doesn't seem like it, according to all the Reddit posts and just stories told by yanks. For example, if a holiday is approved, your employer can't just turn around and cancel it and if you don't turn up for work you're fired. That is legally not possible in GB. We would laugh in the face of anyone who tried to cancel a holiday already approved. And if a place is understaffed on your day off, we cant be called in to work unless we agree to it. Damn I'm happy I haven't worked retail in 20 years. They are saints.
yep it sucks-because in my industry they want youvto give notice if leacing so they have time to finaf a replacement (highly skilled job) but some of them will fire you immediately because they are so pissed you are leaving ot because suddenly they think you will steal gold and gemstones in spite of the fact you never have once in 3 years…and you turn in every since one you find on the floor…Insane,
i fired myself for my boss, basically :^) worked at a grocery store, both placing wares from pallets into the shelves and going at the cash register when needed, most people cleared 1 pallet + ~20% of another one each day. i pulled off 2 pallets every day for months and my boss comes in and tells me im way too slow compared to everyone else, apparently im barely finishing my first pallet, while also sitting at the register on/off which the others didnt (also i was on a contract that ended on monday, this conversation happened on friday and we had already created another contract which i hadnt signed yet) she told me she wouldnt be here at monday for me to give her the new contract and i told her i wouldnt either. not really fired, not quitting i guess, but it was fun seeing how little she actually paid attention (especially to the time where i was the only one in the store during rush hour where we normally had 5 people which she didnt notice that well, 4 other people didnt bother showing up so was now panicing with customers in a 40 meter pre covid line where i was the only one there to cash em out while she franticly calls every single person she knew that worked, or had worked there previously...). good times, good times.
Dude I had to go over "emergency preparedness" which preps patients to evacuate or seek out shelter for certain natural disasters. Me"in the event of a fire I ask that if you are able, you disconnect yourself like this *shows how* and evacuate out that door since you can walk, we will need to focus on the patients who cannot walk" She told my manager I told her the patients needed to save themselves because we were going to go outside without them and watch them burn thru the windows..... Yea.
We had a delivery driver at the pizza place I worked at get fired for throwing his trash on a customers yard too. Ig she didn't tip well I'm not sure exactly what caused him to do it but she caught him on her security camera throwing all the trash across her yard and when my boss approached him about it he just denied denied denied and even cussed out our boss. He was immediately fired and called the health department claiming we had roaches and all sorts of stuff but nothing ever came off it
The higher ups from the out of state home office were in to do an inspection of our plant. The H.R. manager was leading the tour for the big-wigs, with a huge bag of some stinking weed in his dress shirt pocket. The inspection ended sooner than expected.
1:05 I don't know if people know, but to delay a surgery for TUMOR REMOVAL is possibly the WORST thing you can do. Tumors are a usually early sign you have cancer, and can be malignant (a cancerous tumor). Or if the employee was lucky she got a benign TUMOR (a non cancerous tumor that if not treated could become cancerous). I'd still recommend getting surgery ASAP.
While there are some segments that focus solely on HR being the bad guys, a lot of the first half stories aren't really "HR is not your friend" stories. The majority of people fired deserved it and HR was not the bad guy in those situations
Saw a video of a guy getting sucked into a plane engine. The only reason he got out okay was because his helmet got sucked off his head and into the plane first, breaking the engine.
Yeah but that was a fighter jet, their engines aren’t as large as those of most commercial airliners, plus they have intakes whereas airliner engines just have the turbine completely exposed
5 of us shotgunned coor’s beers and one of the 5 posted it on Snapchat. A girl he had on Snapchat was an ex coworker that happened to be friends with our bosses wife. She tells her she tells him and he(boss man) goes to hr or owner and informs them about the Snapchat fool, so they fire the mr.Snapchat. One week later mr.snapchat emails HR the videos he took of us each shot gunning our beers 5 minutes before clocking out from our Saturday overtime shift. And writes how it’s not fair he was the only one fired, and yadayada the 4 of us get fired.
That's hilarious. The dumbass probably thought he'd be rehired due to the unfairness of it all, but all he accomplished was getting his friends axed too.
@@donmiller2908 i don't see how it's unfair that someone got fired for drinking on the job even if it was supposedly a few minutes before clocking out.
@@giovanni6643 It wasn't unfair, but he felt that it was. He didn't send in the video to get his co-workers fired, but to be rehired. He thought they'd view the video and think "It's not right that these four men are working after doing the same thing, we should rehire him" He doesn't live in the real world.
My crew leader who was younger than me but hired longer took off to watch a show while still clocked in. Told me so right before leaving. Boss called in asking for him a few hours later. I told the boss that I hadn't seen him since he left to watch his shows at home.
One of the last last things I ever want to be is an employee who is that bad at his job, that his co-workers loathe the thought of him coming in, and then rejoicing when he finally gets fired. No thank you.
I got fired from the same job 5 times in two years. After the last time . I moved to Denver Colorado gotta job as machinest. Took me one phone call to get a new job. At least this place took care of their equipment and didn't break down all the time.
"You, reddit must help me get fired" Easy. Gross misconduct. Done, an done. "...I want to keep my dignity" Well, damn. There go 99% of my suggestions right there lol
I worked in Inpatient Records handling transcribed medical record documents that were typed by an off-site contractor then sent directly to my dedicated high-speed printer. Had this military officer come to my cubicle and ask me why I "warranted" a high-speed printer. At that exact moment (incredible timing) I heard the click signifying that a transcribed batch was coming from the contractor, and typed documents started spewing out of the printer at a furious rate. The printer printed a stack of documents 5 inches high, then stopped. I looked at the officer and said, "That's why." He got the message and never bothered me again. I also shared a cubicle with the local fax machine, and people seemed to think that it was my job to do their faxing. I refused, as it wasn't my job to do everyone's faxing just because the fax machine and I were roommates. As I told people, "If the hospital commander can do his own faxing (he did), so can you." I had to give a few people lessons on how to fax, because I refused to accept "I don't know how to do it!" as an excuse for someone else to dump their work on me, as I had plenty of my own to do.
I went to HR because my supervisor quit and the new lady was firing everyone, she wrote me up for something frivolous and I complained so she wrote me up again so I went to HR and issued a complaint. HR emailed her that I complained about her and I was fired for causing an emotional disruption. My unemployment was uncontested for what it’s worth
20:50 I've done pot wash before. Absolutely never leave a sharp knife in soapy water. The other big one is to never try and catch a falling knife, and to get in the habit just never try to catch any cooking utensil you drop. Step back and let it hit the floor, screw the mess, it's easier to clean a mess than clean a mess and pull a knife out of your hand/foot.
Site manager at one of the security companies I worked at told me he once had a employee get brought a small package of marijuana to the security office one night, there was a flex officer there a flex officer is you someone filling in for a vacation day, they went out to smoke a cigarette and while doing so they just covered up the package with a paper towel after the flex officers done with his cigarette he said he had to go on patrol went back to the office grab the package and took it to the front desk and put it in the safe for the night. He also immediately called the site supervisor who rushed down there and told the guy to go home and be at the HR office first thing Monday morning, they open up the safe the next morning sure enough to find the package of marijuana. He did not bother showing up Monday to HR he attempted to get unemployment benefits which was of course denied, you got an attorney to get his unemployment benefits and in a conference call between him his attorney beside supervisor in HR Manager his attorney asked why he wasn't getting his unemployment benefits for missing a meeting on that said Monday, that is when they say supervisor told him about the marijuana that he was supposed to sell to someone else the former employee did not tell him that and when his attorney said oh really hung up the phone not getting any unemployment benefits
I was "hired" by Starbucks around 2011. I submitted the app, but never accepted the job or got an interview. I got "fired" for not attending scheduled orientation. I was so freaking confused when I got that call. It's both hilarious and worrying that happened.
I'm going to add me to all the other posters: I love this AI voice! I enjoy all the extra syllables, oddball pronunciations, and hearing a person standing 6'4" described as being "six minutes, four seconds." And I almost called something a "re-zoom."
The manual one cracked me up. I took my car into a shop for a simple tire patch (2016 Kia Forte Koup with a 6-speed manual). Just moments after taking my keys to pull my car into the bay, the MANAGER came and told me nobody there could drive my car in. I never went back😂
1, bring a keg to the office. 2, do a keg stand. 3, aggressively invade people's personal space and solicit drinks. 4, tell the boss he/she has a hot significant other and that they're not so bad they're self, then put on glasses and say oh shit nevermind, I'll take the significant other.
Try no one following up while unconscious or altered state for a week and a half during a suicide attempt (alcohol/medication). Apparently made a very strange call to work. My Mom and Nephew were even more clueless.
Haha two jobs I quit on the spot. Worked construction and everyone was lazy bums. I was taught how to work growing up so it really hurt my soul seeing how lazy people were that were making more because of seniority bs. One day I just walk into the office to clock in and said to a few of the dudes “well I’m quitting it’s been real gentlemen” manager was upset but said he is sorry I had to deal with them and at any point I need a reference or another job he would love me back
