r/Idontworkherelady How I Got Banned for Life From PIzza Hut 

Aww, the supermarket story with the sweet old lady was wholesome.

_"I figured out how to Out-Pizza the Hut."_ *"Impossible."*

That rude man that screamed about tampons acted like HE was on his period. Maybe that's why he took so long in the washroom...

At least the last woman apologized. Honestly, i didn't expect that, props to her.

How _not_ to run a business 1) Be aware of the fact that someone else is getting your calls 2) tell people to call them instead of you 3) refuse to change their number

"i have a feeling somebody is not getting laid tonight" me: h-how did you know?

Karen logic: This person is sitting at a table in a restaurant eating some food, they are clearly a WAITER

Tampon guy is sleeping on the couch for awhile.

Karen: Im calling the manager Manager: Im the manager Karen: No your not im friends with the manger

“You better stop! This is illegal!” No it’s not. You put their phone number.

"Yes, this employee was wonderful" "*That employee doesn't exist*" "I know he helped!"

You could most definitely sue THEM for putting YOUR NUMBER on their advertisements.

I like the happy ones involving sweet old ladies and inside jokes. There’s not enough of them - most of my own IDWHL tales are feel-good ones... not *all* of the world is awful, ya know?

“What gave it away? My nippels?“ This is why I love Rslash

That Pizza Hut story was a beautiful mix of "I don't work here lady", "pro revenge" and "malicious compliance" *A frickin masterpiece*

Ok... The sweet old lady story legit just made me cry...

Why would you follow someone into a dressing room even if you thought they were an employee there's a 50/50 chance your gonna see them naked

The third story is the sweetest r/idontworkherelady post I have ever seen! She’s so sweet about how this guy helped here. I’m dying it’s so adorable!

_Karen demands to talk to the manager to get someone promoted_ *Wholesome 100*

wait the first story´s ending doesnt make sense... how could he get an oreo sundae when their ice cream machine is always broken

When you tried to out Pizza the Hut

When you hear a story that says old lady it's automatically wholesome

FYI- We had the exact same issue with a Domino's Pizza when I was a kid. we handled it similarly but it only took a few days of complaints to sell them on changing. What you miss here is that it was far more than $10 to change the number. These places have pre-printed MASSIVE amounts of stationary, and since the phone number was the source of 90% of their business it was printed EVERYWHERE. Huge signage on the storefront had to be changed, advertising campaigns revamped, etc. The cost was closer to $20k.

Boomers: *“I’m gonna kill whoever doesn’t answer this phone!”* Me: wait, is this guy just gonna kill everyone, or...

"as I'm standing in the taco aisle trying to decide exactly how hard to punish my bathroom later"😭 😭😂

I can't wait for r/slash entitled kids in Christmas

Hahaha! 😂🤣 The story about Pizza Hut reminded me of what happened to my youngest brother with Dominos! Now, this happened years ago, I think either the iPhone or the iPod had just came out or it was a couple years after that. Alright on to the story! My brother was either in his Senior Year of High School or it was his first or second year in college. My brother worked in the Bakery of a Grocery Store and up until then hasn't encountered a Karen, Entitled Parents, Entitled Kid, before then. Unfortunately, this was when he had his first encounter with one or all of them. So, what does my brother do when he gets home? Get's his phone out and starts texting to his friend, complaining about how awful his day was and how awful the customers were! The thing of it is, he accidentally texted the Dominos near us. My brother's friend's number ended in (I think) 5975, while Dominos ended 5957. So, yeah, it was really easy to get the two numbers mixed up. Dominos got the *full* text message of his rant. The thing of it is, none of them were mad. The manager actually thought, my brother was an ex-employee. So, to compensate or possibly to make sure not to get a bad review (I have no idea. I like to think more of the first then the second). They gave my brother a free one-topping pizza! My brother was pretty shocked when he got the call from Dominos and that he was getting a free pizza. Then he checked the number that texted. He accidentally gotten the two numbers mixed up. Whoops!

"Is this Pizza Hut?" "NO. THIS IS PATRICK."

r/Idontworkherelady is just turning into r/entitledparents and r/choosingbeggers

Corporation: *Advertises wrong phone number and refuses to fix it, expecting the family to give them good press* Family: *Has some fun and organizes one of the biggest pranks ever* Business: *Goes out of business due to entitlement and refusing to cough up a few bucks to solve the problem* Corporation: _Surprised Pikachu face_

This makes me realize violence is sometimes the answer

The sweet old lady story was so stinking cute omg

From a person who use to work in retail, the customer is never always right

Karen: tell me where the manger is because the customer is always right customer: i'm don't work here manager:like you said the customer is always right so he does not work here

You should read the "I DO work here" stories, the satisfaction of putting people in their places is amazing

The story about the old lady was so sweet. But when he said, "Deciding how hard to punish my bathroom tonight." I was laughing out loud.

omg my heart the story with the nice old lady was so wholesome

Pizza hut corporate - "It's YOUR fault we advertised your number as one of our locations!" For the last story, at least she did end up apologising profusely. That's way better than how most of these kinds of stories end.

It goes from a super wholesome story of an old lady in the super market getting OP a 'promotion', To absolute chaos because the owner of a pizza hut is a prick. We live in a society.

The story around 8:00 mins that old lady was just sweet and I feel like not a lot of ppl help her like that ( i say this cuz of how much gratitude she wanted to show the guy that “worked there” which makes me feel sad) but she seems nice

They TECHNICALLY didn’t get banned be now it’s closed lmao.

"What gave it away? My nipples?" That line absolutely killed me

The wrong number thing reminds me of a funny incident. It’s not really a “I don’t work here, lady” story, but it is a good story. One day, I get a text from someone, trying to remind their boss about a day off he had asked for. I politely responded that he had the wrong number, and he asked if this was Sally (not actual name), and I said no, and, so not to seem rude, I said that people make phone number mistakes all the time, so it’s no big deal. A couple minutes later another number texts me asking if this was Sally. Right around the same time, the first guy texts me to let me know that Sally’s number had a 3 in it where mine had a 5, and our numbers were otherwise identical. I passed the information on to the second person, and he appreciated it and they said that they’d clarify the number at work, apparently Sally had written her number down a little sloppily, so the 3 looked like a 5

Rslash: looks like someone’s not getting laid tonight Me: *cries in loneliness

Karen: I called your manager Manager: I am the Manager *Dun Dun DANNNNNNN*

When he said "Assistant to the regional manager" I really wanted him to reply with "You mean, assistant regional manager?"

The story about the customer helping the old lady is so heartwarming. If someone does an exceptional job you should always bring it to the attention of their superiors. I still haven't forgotten the customers who have done that for me, and I haven't worked in the service industry for a decade.

That story with the old lady is wholesomeness overload ! What a way to turn the traditional story format around ! Also, this is probably the only one of those story that I heard so far where the confused customer never actually knows that the person don’t work there !

hey R/ you should try r/iDOwork her lady, it could be a nice twist

Dwight: is bad safety officer Michael: is manager

honestly the sweet lady that wanted to see the person who helped her get a promotion was so nice.

"Deciding how hard to punish my bathroom later" Best line ever!

McDonald's story was fake, everyone knows the ice cream machine doesn't work

rSlash: “I have a feeling somebody’s not getting laid tonight.” Me: First time?

the story with sl was the best. its so nice to have a happy story instead of one with a dumb karen. the way she said the employees care about the customers aswell was so sweet

The Pizza Hut situation would have been easy to fix. Take a photo of the ad with your phone number on it and sue the fudge out of them.

Your old person voice makes me giggle every time. XD You should be a voice actor.~

the dad in the pizza hut story should have just sued the place for causing mental trauma because of having to deal with 100-200 calls (most of them angry) per day and how their ad was an attempt to dox their family

"and thats how i become assistant to the regional manager at a store im not even employed by" That story was so fucking wholesome and I love it

You can tell the old lady was a favorite to her family and grandchildren. I loved that story

Posted 3 hours ago. You Are Awesome!! Your voice is so expressive! Love listening

chandelier earrings? -trying to imagine- that sounds heavy.

I can only imagine the old lady from the first story talking to her husband on the way out like "You just had to ruin my McDonalds didn't you?" Because she stayed back and let him make his scene on his own

I tried pranking a whole server by asking: "HOW DO I TYPE. HELP??" A random dood: What are you doing? Me: "asking help. (Asks someone else) how do i type?" Other person: "Dude. Look at what your doing." The first person comes back: "Ok, stop." Me: "How do i type?" Him: "bye" Me to second person: "Help, how do i type?" Second person: "Im gonna stop trying" Other girl: "STOPPP"

The old lady story was so wholesome, it put a HUGE smile on my face ❤

The woman suddenly accepting she's wrong and apologizing to OP caught me totally off guard. After so many of these stories, I expected her to cry for the manager because she was assaulted by a naked woman in a dressing booth...

God bless that sweet old lady we need more people like her!!!

Ugh that old lady was so sweet even though she was clueless

Title: How I got banned for life from PIzza hut. Not pizza hut PIzza hut

So sweet to hear about an I don't work here lady story that's so wholesome ! Really really nice

can we take a sec to appreciate the sweet lady in the supermarket story? people are so quick to jump to complain when things go wrong but its v rare to hear something positive from customers

Manager: Hey Mark, welcome to your first day on the job as assistant to the Regional Manager! The REAL Mark: _what_

karen: IM FRIENDS WITH THE OWNER ILL GET YOU FIRED Op: But im the owner

I like how in the middle it's not a jerk who thinks everyone is a low life employee and dehumanises them

'What gave it away, was it my nipples' Is possibly the single oddest sentence that I have heard in my life

"What gave it away, was it my nipples" - The rSlash line we didn't know we needed 😂

The first post is such an “Ok Boomer” moment

The supermarket story is just too cute that’s the human equivalent of having a dog in an office space and appointing it as the “assistant branch manager”😂

Awwhh the story with the old lady was so wholesome and nice. The old lady was so nice.

That last story made me laugh 😂 Lady: "You don't work here, huh?" Woman in changing room, breasts exposed: "Hmmmm I'm not sure...you tell me" Lol

The one about the lady in the grocery store was actually pretty cute.

during the Pizza hut story I could only think of the one meme that goes "what kind of McDonalds has an answering machine?" but with Pizza Hut instead

I love that supermarket story, especially as it was topped off with a reference to the Office. Awesome! What's funny is that I began to imagine Dwight telling a story like this. "I know how to do my job well. I know how to do *other peoples* job well. Once I was so good at a job that I didn't even have, I was instantly promoted to Assistant to the Regional Manager."

Most amazing part of the first story: OP found a McDonald's with a working ice cream machine.

"I'm not dressed as a McDonalds employee, just a red shirt...."

I always wanna scream when I hear these stories. But that one with the sweet old lady has taken any annoyance and anger away. That was adorable.

I always love the wholesome I don’t work here lady stories

The Pizza Hut one reminds me of when I first got my phone number. Apparently it used to be the phone number of a local computer repair company that went out of business just a month or so before I got the number. Almost immediately I started getting upwards of 10-40 calls a day about rates for fixing various issues, prices for parts, even when it was expected to get their computers back. I also regularly got calls from Sony, Microsoft, Asus, and Dell among some other major tech companies that I don't recall at this point. Those were fun to answer (except for Sony since I wasn't sure if I would be the one charged for a call from overseas) and most were very polite and took me off their list when I explained that I had no connection to the tech company and this was now a personal number. The other calls could get a lot more annoying though. Several times I would answer, tell the person that they had the wrong number just to have them call right back several times. Eventually, I started asking people who they thought they were calling and got the name of the company. Then I did some digging and found out that the company had closed, rather abruptly from the most recent reviews (there was also some reviews for since I had gotten the number complaining about how the new assistant was a lazt idiot which I found to be hilarious). So at that point I just flat out started telling people that (tech company) is no longer open and this is no longer their number which usually resulted in either a genuine apology or getting cussed out (the latter I just hung up on and if they kept calling I would block the number). All started to calm down at that point for a year or two. Then came the debt collectors and legal calls. I at first freaked out thinking that someone had stolen my identity or something since the calls for the company had for the most part died out. Fortunately, once I got a chance to sit down and call them back and explain that I was not in any way associated or had even met any of the people that they were trying to contact and gave them permission to contact my cell phone provider to verify that I had been issued the number after the company had been closed (they can just ask that it was in fact now a personal number rather than a business number and when the switch happened, no personal information is given in this case) and then those calls stopped. All was well for another year or so, then all of a sudden I started getting a bunch of calls again asking about prices and services. I am really confused at this point because it has been almost 5 years since I had gotten the number and as far as I knew the Google business page had been taken down (which was the only one that had my number on it to begin with, all the others just had emails). So after asking a few callers about where they found the number I found out that Google had reactivated the posting AND WERE PUBLICLY LISTING ALL MY INGOING AND OUTGOING CALLS, which if you don't know is a huge breach of personal privacy and is illegal (not for business numbers but definitely for personal numbers). I was *mad.* I immediately called to report it to Google and demand that the businesses page be removed or at the very least my number be taken off. Their response was to ask if I was the businesses owner (no). Then they couldn't authorize the change, only an owner can do that (but it is *my* number and I am pretty sure the owners are now in jail for fraud if the lawers I spoke to were correct in the severity of their case). Doesn't matter (you do realize that I could sue you for breach of privacy right?). Take it up with our complaint department then. So I did. I went the whole nine yards, dug up all the laws that would support my case, made it very clear that I had irrefutable evidence that the company had been closed for years (even contacted the cities business department to confirm that they were no longer a registered business), and threatened to sue if the page was not taken down within 30 days. It was gone within a week. It doesn't stop there though, fast forward again about a year and I start getting the phone calls *again.* Look it up and yup, the page is back, at least this time it is only the number and not all my calls listed so I just ignore it. At this point it is maybe 2 calls max a week so it isn't really an issue. Not only that but I am getting calls from Google *asking that I call to confirm my business page so I don't lose it.* I call back, tell them to go ahead and close it. They ask if I am the businesses owner... No, we have been over this, they are long gone and this is *my* number. Well, only the businesses owner can... then stop calling *ME* then... but this is the only contact that isn't disconnected... *YA THINK THAT'S A CLUE?!* I then went to the Google business page, which now had a convenient "report a malicious/inaccurate contact" option, listed the phone number as no longer a business number, and left an anonymous and scathing public review basically laying it out that the businesses hasn't been open for over *6 YEARS* at this point and the phone number is a personal number and I really don't appreciate getting calls from random people all the time. Also, unless enough people report the business number as being inaccurate Google refuses to remove it. After that the calls completely stopped and last time I checked my number finally was taken off (though the posting is still there, however it does have a closed permanently in the hours slot). I still get the occasional call from Google about the page but I just ignore it at this point. It was a pain at times and one of the main reasons I chose to not change my number was I didn't want to push off that nightmare on anyone else, especially if they didn't know what was going on. It was good practice on how to deal with disgruntled people over the phone and I learned a lot on what mistakes to not make when owning a business. But still, 6 years to deal with it fully... 🙄

"anyone in this position who has any merit" It's a pizza place. People with le merit don't work near the bottom of the chain of command in a copy-paste pizza restaurant. If anything, it should make him believe we do live in a meritocracy because obviously as a result of their lack of merit, they failed at running the restaurant and it closed. (I'm not saying we necessarily do, just saying that his example is a really bad one to support that opinion.) Just...oof.

I loved the story with the old lady! So wholesome

I laughed at the Pizza Hut manager saying he got his ass beat over the phone calls. That's what he gets honestly

14:54 I will never understand how these kinds of people can't see money being lost unless their bank account balance is actually getting smaller

7:40 Finally a nice lady who doesnt know they work there , but ' really good and not like karens

I loved the pizza hut story 😂 ultimate prank call

That sweet old lady deserves a big old hug❤︎

I'm waiting for something like this to happen to me. People are always bothering me when I'm shopping in XXI or Victoria's Secret (I work in another store in the mall where I have to dress a bit nicer). EDIT: I effing hate Pizza Hut. You'd think they would notice people NOT calling them on the daily.

“We can’t order from Pizza Hut for Fonts for 𝐥𝐲𝐟𝐞"

the story with the old lady just warms my heart (part that IM also a HUGE office fan and that it reminds me of my own grandmother. {she’s the sweetest old lady who is my favorite family meme bee other than me own mother})

The assistant to the regional manager line is the best ha
