Ricky, next time tell Boss you're going to apologize to the Safety Man; you'll get at least a week of PTO so the company can avoid lawsuits pertaining to "mental and emotional damages", especially Safety Man's.
Congrats on 1 million followers! 🥃🇺🇸Well deserved Sir. I install windows and Doors. Whenever I’m having a bad day at work I watch this guy and it instantly makes me smile. So relatable.
Me to. I remember one manager/supervisor trying to stop me from leaving while I was holding my sledge hammer and was so beyond pissed. Some jackass had sexually assaulted me with a paint roller. Painting my backside because i refused to give him my phone number. My crew and I held him off the roof until he apologized. The manager saw everything happen and toldme I over reacted. In response I walked off the job and took 15 guys with me, because my 16 seater van was their ride back to our city. The manager was fortunate I didn't want an assault charge. Never was assigned to work for that company again. Fun times the early 2000's
You don't tug on Superman's cape You don't spit into the wind You don't pull the mask off that old lone ranger You don't mess around with Jim And you don’t call Ricky’s bluff
Had this happen while working as a lube tech. Didn't get a filter on correctly, and when it came time to check the pressure, absolutely DRENCHED in oil. And as this was during the rush for the day, I spent the next while still doing cars very well lubricated. Once it had died down, climbed out from below, said something to effect of "Someone can take care for the rest of the day, I'm going home now". Boss originally thought I was just going to go home and clean up AND THEN COME BACK. Thankfully he understood that me saying I was going home, meant I was not coming back till tomorrow.
@@NEEDbacon Last time I did it, I was working as a chemical technician doing chrome plating for car parts. Got a sulphuric acid shower from a bad hose. Got in the decon shower fast enough to not get hurt, but it melted my pants and shoes. Left me with a slight chemical burn where it managed to melt all the way through. At about the level of a sun burn. Had to wear plastic chemical pants and booties. Despite that, rather than just letting me go home that night, or at least go home long enough to change, they wanted me to spend my lunch break driving home to change and then drive back. Only had a 30 minute lunch and worked 12 hour days. Explained to them in what I felt were very colorful words why I wasn't gonna spend the next four hours wearing what was basically plastic bags, only to then have to drive home, change and come back. They saw reason after my descriptive usage of language reinforced were they could shove that idea.
By calling someone out on their bluff almost guarantees they will do it now for its either back down and be tge batch or follow through and prove them wrong.
'Drug test? A dr- you wanna dru- you want to drug test me? We both know, okay, we BOTH know this d@mn place doesn't pay me enough to have a drug problem! They barely pay me enough as it is! Boss man, I'm not on drugs, okay, I am running on pure SPITE.'
The comment about hiring someone back because no one else wants to work there is so relatable. My old job hasnt found anyone to stay more than two weeks. Most people dont last more than two days.
Companies need to learn that there staff are employees. Not slaves. If a person wants to go home that's fine. Don't pay for the rest of the day fair trade. This whole mindset of you have to be at work and nowhere else is toxic
Way back when I was a bright-eyed and bushy-tailed apprentice, I was on a job that was big warehouses for a food company. They had a bunch of giant coolers and freezers in them, so there was a bunch of pipefitters on the job. One day I was piping power for the HVAC units on a cooler when a pipe fitter says, “Hey man, you don’t want to go up there. I’m going to burn this mf’er to the ground.” He seemed so serious but I thought it must have been a joke. I went up and started working when I noticed it was getting really hazy up in this joint. I went to the edge of the cooler and sure enough, I could see fire burning around the bottom. Yeah, he was not joking. That warehouse did burn to the ground. Turns out later he was mad his foreman denied his request to leave early, so he found a way to make sure everyone left early. From then on, whenever someone makes a crazy threat, I watch out for it haha.
Ricky can call it "early out". New Guy would call it a "Mental Hygiene Day". Roscoe would call it an average day at work and drink it off while plinking.
Just goes to show Ricky is actually the owner if hes willing to do thay kind of damage and not care about the consequences instead of just going home lol😂
I can’t decide which one is my spirt animal. I getting old enough to be Roscoe. But I completely understand where Ricky is coming from minus the raging alcoholism.
