yeah i agree i think she was WAITING on shit like that to happen i mean would you vote for richard? or vote for the woman who kicked some real justice ass. she has my vote.
Fun fact: did you know that in study conducted by I think Harvard, (I cant remember who did it, I just know it was a big time university) About 70% of Americans would happily take a 25% pay cut if their current boss was fired right this instant? As the saying goes, "people don't quit jobs, they quit bosses"
My dad, who is a supervisor has told the people in his team who complained that as long as they all agree to resign at the same time, he will also hand in his resignation, which is already written to the boss (he has like 6 or 7 people under him)
In that last one he should have pushed back to HR with a simple question: "I'm confused, how does being late once due to a car accident translate into attendance issues?" Or better yet: "I was unaware of these attendance issues, please provide for me the write-ups or notifications of these attendance issues." Ohh, you don't have any documentation how interesting.
Oh that council member knew what she was doing. A simple bit of help can go a long way. Plus Richard was probably pissing off a lot of people. I bet that wasn't the first tap he didn't have put in
With the last one they should have “offered a position” but then called back a little later to say the position has been rescinded due to backstab tendencies
Yeah, like get him to come to the interview and then tell him he wouldn't be getting the job for reasons that shouldn't come as a surprise. To use his words
@@trindalas all that aside, the fact that when if he went to the interview and saw that OP had his future in his hands would have been prorevenge. The fact that he DOESNT know why he didn't get the job/ who denied him makes this petty revenge in my opinion. There's no emotional damage done here. Just a denied interview. Didn't even let other businesses in the industry know about it so he would be unhireable period. But oh well.
@@StefenBruh Yeah I agree. The potential for pro revenge was amazing but he didn't take the opportunity! He's either a kinder person than me, or dumber lol
6xbuddy!! Dude the one about the sewage, atleast the councilwoman ACTUALLY DID SOMETHING, sure we all knew it was mostly about votes, but still a masterful move.
@@aleahlrb having held elective office i can assure you that most of us ran in the first place so we can make things run better. the councillor in question needed no other reason to do her job than the constituent provided. give her the credit she deserves, please.
Son: I'm gay. Father: *beats son* Mother: What are you doing!? Father: *beats wife* Lawyer: Your wife is filing for divorce Father: *beats Lawyer* Police: Sir, you're under arrest for assault. Father: *beats Police* National Guard: Sir, you're being Dishonorably Discharged. Father: WTF?!
Oh right, I bet that went well for the idiot thief. "So I stole this package sitting on this guys property and when I opened it glitter exploded from it" I hope he recorded the guy taking it then they can really nail him, even if not for the theft itself they would be able to take him away for filing a false police report and wasting their time, so remember if you do something like this make sure to catch it on camera.
I was thinking with the last one that he was going to give the guy the interview, and tell him "I can't hire you, who's going to cover the night shift in the other company?"
C4 plastic charge with a chemically-activated igniter, and a pull string taped to the box. Box is opened, ignition engaged, in a few minutes an explosion may be heard in the distance. S/He's dead, you win.
We dont get out packages stolen here. They give us a phone call to tell us the package is coming. If no one is there to collect, it goes back and we have to collect it where ever. Unless you fight the delivery guy(hes pretty beefy) you ain't getting crap.
My neighborhood also doesn't have a problem with porch pirates, but for a different reason. My area used to be pretty bad and a neighborhood watch had to be established just for people to sleep soundly. The watch was mainly made up of veterans and their families and built a reputation for quickly and quietly dealing with any criminals that even blinked in the neighborhood's direction. Thanks to them and the city's efforts to improve and clean up, our area greatly improved and crime dropped dramatically. The neighborhood watch task became a bit a a tradition for these families and even thought we dont need it, they still make patrols.
That purple rain powder works so good for catching sticky-fingered thieves. If you have a cat, though... We had a pure white Persian/Siamese mix that had extremely long hair. I had a bottle of the powder on my desk, and through normal cat behavior she pushed it right over the edge. The plastic lid shattered, dust going all over the wood floor, and cat of course had to check it out for herself. I came home to a giant purple stain on the floor and a trail of purple footprints all through the house (and this stuff does NOT come out of the flooring), and a Joker suit colored cat who had activated the powder by self-cleaning.
Thanks rSlash, You've gotten me through a few days in hospital. Without you I would have been insanely anxious awaiting on test results and constantly focused on how shite I was feeling. I'm sure you contributed to my quick recovery by lowering my stress levels and making me lol.
The Bible is literally full of "godly men" screwing up and doing wrong. The difference is THEY tended to own up to it. This is also small town favoritism at its finest.
As a former city worker, I was appalled to hear how OP and OPs' wife in the first story were treated glad to hear they were financially compensated for "Richards" bullshit and that lazy asshole "Richard" lost his job. Also good on the council woman for her part in the story.
Guy: *Steals package* OP: SO YOU HAVE CHOSEN TO BECOME A SMURF?? Guy: *Gets turned into a giant smurf* OP's kids: Haha. You're a Smurf! Middle of nowhere: *Smurf song starts playing*
Hah! The sewage victim... it's not just in the US. Years ago, I bought a house in London and, long story short, almost the same thing except that there was a tap into the main sewage line but it had been broken by the builders who'd worked on the house before I bought it. The same builders also worked on two houses next door whose sewage outlets joined my outlet just before the tap - which meant that when the next door place was sold, sewage started to back up and entered into my property leaking into the basement. It was disgusting. The sewage not only leaked into my basement but also flooded up and out onto the street, flowing down the hill. People were complaining but the builder refused to fix the problem citing some obscure by-laws claiming it was my problem. It was going to cost about £25k for me to get fixed as London streets are complex with a lot of gas, electricity, cable, telephone junctions etc.etc. lines all criss-crossing beneath the streets and pavements. I didn't have that sort of money having just bought a house. I spent a considerable amount of time getting the local council to pump out my basement (after all, it was not my sewage) and dumping gallon bottles of bleach into the basement afterwards. Now, in the UK, we have a "search" mechanism which means that any property buyer is informed of any problems with, say, an airport about to be built next door, or with services not working and so on and so on. I lodged a complaint about the sewers with the local council which meant that any prospective buyer of the third property would discover problems in the search and the builder would have a problem selling that property. Sure enough, after three months of suffering blow files and the stench, the builders could not sell the third property (which covered some costs and a bit of profit) and had to come out and fix the outlets into the main sewer before they could make the sale. I watched as a very disgruntled builder carefully dug a hole in the London clay around all the services, literally with a trowel so as not to damage anything - with the local council also keeping a beady eye on the work. It was a little compensation for the hassle I'd gone through.
first story, the ending of that was awesome, the government lady was doing her job and punishing corruption, that's amazing, this is what good people look like, as long as her and others like her exist, there is hope in the world!
And of course you have the most Scottish sounding name. Reminds me of that UPS ad where the guy is driving all over Scotland looking for Angus MacKenzie.
@@jjohnston94 honestly my middle name makes me look sound a posh Scottish person but I don't actually have much of a Scottish accent compared to my brother's Stewart and Scott McIntosh
My grandma was a victim of a porch pirate. She was very popular in the neighborhood because she sold crocheted items (ie blankets and hats and stuff). She's about 58, so she installed a camera on the front door. A teenage boy, about 16 or 17, was seen stealing her package. (What a 16-17 year old boy needs yarn for I have no idea.) My grandma knew him, so she told his grandma. He got a big lecture and sent to juvy
@@connormcg8543 To be fair, a town spelled that way in the US would likely be pronounced how he pronounced it. I honestly learned how to pronounce Edinburgh from Braveheart as a kid. They kept saying it one way, the location card in the movie spelled it seemingly another way, and I just pieced it together at like age 9.
Hey guys in Mark Rober's video(s) he made a glitter bomb for porch pirates you should go watch it. Watch the first version before the upgraded one. He used to work for NASA He's a really cool dude and smart go sub to him
I’m the kind of person who plays with pens and constantly brakes them, pen ink on ur skin.... TIMES 50!!! Oh dang that’s never coming off, even with soap
My father was a LOT like the father in the second story, except he never bragged about that stuff. Hell, he never talked about anything from the past. Not his family, not his time in the air Force, not even how he met my mom. Any languages other than English were FORBIDDEN. We divorced him over a year ago, as it was just getting worse and my panic attacks became almost constant. (Nowadays, it used to be so normal, I sometimes can't tell I'm having one). And, again, unlike op's story, the church didn't take his side. Our current pastor had met him ONCE, my father decided he didn't like the "new one" and stopped going to church. (thank you whatever Gods are out there) And during the divorce process, us kids (unwillingly) helped him move out, and to a new city. He took his cat, which was my favorite as she liked to hide under blankets, and in the next few months, he'd stop by for some reason or another. Until we finally told him: either give us a heads up, or we'll call the cops next time.
me: *[puts active BEAR TRAP in box and carefully fills it with packing peanuts]* package theif: *[steals it]* me: *[snickers evilly]* *[package theif opens box and starts removing packing peanuts]* *[BEAR TRAP SNAPS]* this might sound a little extreme but, I would do this just so package thieves would learn to NEVER steal again
I think this was double pro revenge from the OP and specially from the councilwoman. But yeah she used this to get a clear shot on the bastard and she paid them extra for it which is always nice
In my country the package absolutely HAS to be delivered to a person. If the addressee is not home, they try the neigbours and leave a note in your mailbox stating they delivered it to number so-and-so. If that method fails, the delivery man/woman takes the backage back with them and drops it off at a local postal point for you to pick up later. Love the service!
Thanks you. THANK YOU!!! For doing a video with more than 1 story and longer than 10:03 minutes!!! So many channels have just cut vids to 1 quick “must get to the time limit” and done. So THANKS!!!
Dear rSlash, i have been a loyal subscriber for months now and had been binging your videos every day. I really enjoy them and they make me really happy. But recently i have reached an end. i have watched EVERY SINGLE ONE of your videos. So obviously now i have to wait for more videos but i don't think that's very fair being the amount of time i sacrificed to watch your videos. i have failed many classes and almost failed a grade because i love your videos so much. so how about you start making more videos or i will sue. thank you!
11:41 Edinburg? EDINBURG?! Dear rSlash, how could you! Next video: R/amithea**hole? Am I the a** hole for miss pronouncing "Edinburgh " as "Edin-burg" (and not Edin-bruh)" in one of my RU-vid videos? - rSlash
JamiePhonic to be fair, the way it’s pronounced is due to a regional dialect, rSlash isn’t from that country and so that kind of thing wouldn’t be quite natural to him.
The story about the councillor who helped her constituent shows why, for all its flaws, democracy is the best thing man has managed to invent since we discovered fire. Good for him for volunteering in her next campaign!
ninjabreadman1993r I was on holiday in New York a few years back and when I was going through JFK airport coming home one of the TSA workers called it Eeeding-burg. I thought to myself “oh my god! You work at an airport, learn some bloody geography!”
@@LittleMilkJug Not really, no. That's how a lot of people in the south of England say it, but the people who live there pronounce it as if it's "bruh." If you say it slowly, then yes, it goes bo-rah, but if you say it at a normal pace, most people who say it correctly tent to cut out the o. And yeah, EctoTron, it just seems that Americans either don't know or don't care how to pronounce English words properly. :P The amount of times I hear Americans mispronouncing English places, or even English curses like "Bollocks" and "twat" makes me want to throttle them. BOH-lucks, not BOW-lucks! Tw-AH-t, not tw-o-t! How hard is it?! xD
I know a lady who got revenge. They kept their finances separate during their marriage. He made a ton of money and spent all of it. She made a lot less money, but she was the one who paid for household stuff like groceries. She also had a bunch saved, because she was responsible. He took half of her savings in the divorce. Afterwards, she called the feds anonymously to report some shady things she knew about him (mainly assets he hid in the divorce). The ensuing investigation uncovered worse shady things she didn’t know about (defrauded the government). He went to prison.
Jose Rivera bro you actually got me man, what the hell. Lucky for me I found Mark Rober’s video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-o6piTG5EdhQ.html
Op: so, I didn't hire him and didn't even interview him cuz even the worst enemies deserve peace Rslash's inner palpatine: *RELEASE YOUR HATRED, STRIKE HIM DOWN!*
I feel like there's more to the last one that the OP isn't saying. HR isn't going to deny someone a promotion based on "attendance issues" when it's easily proven that there are no attendance issues. Don't get me wrong, there are tons of crappy bosses that will try to keep their employees under their thumbs. Normally, they'll use something like "performance issues" (which aren't so easily disproven). But the way the OP rolled over makes me believe there's more to the story that doesn't cast him in a good light (like maybe there were actual attendance issues)
