She Called the Tow Company HERSELF 😲 

That's a maneuver we've used during the winter when an infirm relative was coming to visit. Our neighbour would park in the freshly shovelled spot in front of our house until they arrived then move his truck back to his driveway so they could use it. Sadly you had to wait for the very last second or someone would swoop in for it, never mind they didn't do the work.

​@@42ayla Do you live in Boston?

Sir or Maam, we saw in your booking you drive an EV, meaning you are probably at least a bit well off and for sure an adult able to take care of themselves. So we'd like to make sure in case you are completely irresponsible when it comes to charging you car, we can inconvenience one of our minimum work employees in the middle of the work day to move their probably breaking down 2005 mazda 3"

No, just have the unauthorized cars towed. Pretty simple.

And so random people don't steal your power

No shit should have canceled. Everybody’s reservation for employees treating her like that.

As soon as she parked her EV there and plugged it in, I would have called Maintenance and asked them to switch off the power to that charger.

@@neilkurzman4907 Uh, because the hotel isn't letting randos from the neighborhood use their EV chargers, so they block the spaces with cars that can be moved in 5 minutes?

So, if they have cones, why not set them out to begin with…?

⁠@@splendidcolorsBecause it’s not going to be “moved in 5 minutes”…😂 By the time the guest goes to the Front Desk (possibly having to wait 10+ minutes) to ask the clerk, contact an employee to move their vehicle, wait for the employee to stop what they’re doing & go to the lot to move it, then contact the guest, a good half an hour has passed… It’s quicker to either put out a cone, or give specific parking permits to guests by request; if a “rando” is parked there (or even a guest without a permit), tow them immediately…

Customers do that all the time. Usually, they're wrong because they made their own rules/laws/policies up, are applying the wrong company/state/city/country/county's r/l/p, or "heard from someone who works in the industry/youtube/facebook"

Having worked in a variety of customer-oriented jobs over the past several decades, I don't have to imagine it... In fact, I'd like to forget it...

@@nairbvel I don't doubt you

​@@ChobinoftheFunk true, I can confirm. They love to do so.

I work retail. "But the tag said this would be %% off!" Checks the item, I noticed it is already tagged with %% off of the ORIGINAL price, which I point out. "No, no! That %% is supposed to come off this price!"😢, nope sorry... Not how that reads.

One of those super high elite kiss my butt "frequent flyer" I'm better than anyone else super exclusive members.

"Ma'am, I have called the towing company and authorized one vehicle to be towed... yours. You are no longer a guest at this hotel, nor will you EVER be a guest at any other hotel in our chain, and have 30 minutes to vacate your room before the car is removed from property and police are involved."

Except "Karens" Will not stop and listen. They want what they want and they want it now because they are entitled. Then they will get their "Chads" to back them up and then the whole world has to move in their direction or else theyget very offended they "nobody cares about what I want!!!"

I love watching cars getting towed when parked in spaces they shouldn’t 😂 I worked at a late night convenience store on the Sunset Strip decades ago, that was in a tiny “strip mall”. We had a HUGE parking lot that easily had over 100 spots, and signage everywhere that stated unauthorized cars would be towed, and “Customer Parking Only”. People would park there at 9ish, walk to wherever they needed to be, then come back to no car… Then they’d try to show a receipt at 2-3am showing they were a “customer” because they bought a Coke 5 hours earlier (the signs also had a 30 minute limit 😂)… The thing is, if anyone just walked in & explained how expensive parking was, and ASKED to park there, we’d tell them where to park & give them something to place on their windshield… Then when the lot was full, we’d call the tow company & tell them to come down (this would be by 11ish), and they knew our system… Every weekend the handful of companies we worked with would expect our calls, and made quick money 😂

​@@xamyx725 That's actually pretty amazing! Would never think to go ask lol, but honeslty i would just cough up the money for parking 😂 cheaper than getting towed ❤😂

She was desperate for that Facebook video she could post to her public group of self righteous Karens

​@@xamyx725I once got towed on a night when the "unauthorized vehicles" sign was covered by plants and... another vehicle

@@QuikVidGuy Was it a private lot…? If it was street parking, take a picture & fight it in court; a private lot is pretty much self-explanatory…

Classic case of Head up disease

Eh, more like she didn't want to understand.

@@splintershield Actually, the problem ..... no HER problem .... is, that unless she hears what she wants to hear, she doesn't hear anything that is being said to her. There is an old saying that, God gave you two ears and one mouth so you can listen twice as much as you speak. Guess she missed that lesson.

Worth.

something to live for. can I use it if I need? while employees aren't allowed to talk back, they can get pay back.

water isn't wet, it just gets things wet but it is not in and of itself wet. Fire burns things, correct, but it is not in and of itself burned. Dirt gets things dirty, but it is not in and of itself dirty. Water wets things, but is not in and of itself wet.

I've worked in places where not only Jessica but all the employees parked in the charging spots would have been written up or worse... by the same manager who had the idea to have this policy in the first place!

Must have worked for Comcast before. Customers before employees, no matter what, is their slogan.

​@@cabledad65considering how Comcast is to customers, that's terrifying

Stupid idea

what's the point of putting electric car chargers, then letting random people who won't mive if needed park there? That's just gonna inconvenience everyone.

some in congress lack listening skills

a good chunk of congress is old enough pre-K wasn't offered even in the rich communities they lived in at like 4-5 years old. i know that feels weird but it especially goes for the ones in more rural states, we didn't realize just how primed youngins were for learning back in the day.

The problem is you can teach them the skills but you can't make them use those skills.

@@maltedmilkball2985doesn’t change the fact that they are now adults and should be able to listen to others. And even then, it’s not that they can’t, it’s that they are unwilling because how else are they going to fill their pockets with all that corporate -bribery- lobbying?

She must not have gone to preschool and missed that training.

I wouldn't call that kind of hominid "people" they can't even be called homo sapiens.

hotels should just tow unauthorized vehicles in disabled spaces. even if the hotel parked in disabled to try to save the space it would completely exhaust me if I had to park, transfer into my wheelchair, go in and ask them to free the space and then transfer back to move my car and transfer back into the chair to finally get into the hotel. putting hotel employees in spaces to save them just creates exhausting hastle.

@@vm1776 You could phone the front desk to say you have arrived and are ready to occupy the parking space.

@@vm1776pretty sure getting them to get a tow company to tow a car out of it would be longer.

​yes this is exactly how I feel as well.

@@vm1776 That's the kind of entitlement shown in the skit. Use a phone, send the driver, or someone who does not need a wheelchair. All you thin about is your hassle when they were trying to do you a favor.

Sounds like a certain Cabinet member who sent her security guys ahead to make sure that the charger was working and block it off until she got there.

Why would you say that about your daughter and everyone else? Have you _read_ the Bible? That's a horrid thing to wish on _anyone._

@@Lycanthromancer1 Guaranteed they haven't. I'm constantly shaking my head at the fact that atheists know the book better than they do. Which, of course, is why they still worship and we don't.

​@coffeezombie6813 yeah you know it better 😂

@@Mandaxx25 Better than most xians I've spoken to. I'd wager real money I know it better than you do.

​@@coffeezombie6813 for real. I know way more about the Bible now than I ever did while brainwashed.

Everyone else hates them, too. Glad you're not one of the "normal" EV drivers. I've never had a good experience with one.

I hate ICE owners who part in EV spots -- no way for her to know initially but coming in hot and failing to listen are on her (and not unique to EV owners either)

@@tokomok Why, because you feel entitled to have a charger? Go to a fast charger and pay for your fuel.

@@DVankeuren No, because EV cars are entitled to use EV parking spots whilst ICE cars are not? That shouldn't be so hard to understand.

If I had an electric vehicle and had planned specifically to go to that hotel because they had charging spaces, I would courteously ask about it at the front desk. Can't hurt. And in this situation, the only way the hotel would know you need a spot is if you ask. But yeah, no yelling much less demanding towing....much less whatever THIS insanity is. My goodness.

@@melissasaint3283 I suppose if I HAD an electric vehicle, I would consider calling ahead to ask, at least, where the nearest charging station would be to the hotel. (There are so few around where I live, I'm used to assuming there either aren't any or are a destination like a gas station.)

It always comes as a huge shock to me. Even 40 years olds I know seem to not understand the basics of app use. It really isn't super complicated. That being said, I don't LIKE being forced into using one when I could just as easily ask you directly in person or by phone or you could apply the bonuses in person etc etc etc. But you're right: something about the new confuses people and that confuses me.

And then they get mad at you for not knowing the information. Aka why I wouldn't do tech support for my grandma.

Guess again

The hotel could have also taken a more convenient approach to the situation, and not blocked the spaces with employee vehicles…

​@@xamyx725I guess you missed that part of the skit... 🤷

@@andreachilton6037 Her skits are based on (allegedly) real situations… So, again, it’s not conducive to have employees park in those spaces…

@@xamyx725 Amazing, to think a Karen, male or female, would be power tripping in a post on said video/skit about issue, only it go straight over their heads like a plane heading for international waters on WHY they place employee cars in said spots.

​@@xamyx725Have you ever worked in a hotel? People fucking park in the ev slots all the time and will move cones placed there to block them. It is smart to keep employees cars there to stop non-ev guest from taking those spots so they can move for guest that need them.

As my sister told me about Nursing: "I could write a book about my experiences, but I'd have to call it Fiction because NOBODY would believe this stuff.

@@ghost307 As somebody who worked in customer service for seven years, and have a brother who worked at a hospital for three, I'd probably believe every-single thing your sister would write in that book. Shit makes me REAL GLAD I work in manufacturing now...😌

To be fair, if someone chose a specific hotel based on the availability of EV stations, I wouldn’t blame them for being pissed, especially if they paid more…

​@xamyx725 You do realize the EV stations were available to the hotel guests, right? Employees were only parking there to keep others from parking in the spots.

@@devydraper4166 Exactly; so, again, give a temporary placard to hotel guests, all others towed… Hotels ask for you to submit your plate number, or else risk being towed…

​@@xamyx725 you wouldn't blame them for being pissed that a spot was quickly cleared for them? Wow

@@waffles3629 No; I wouldn’t blame them for being pissed they have to jump through hoops, and wait most likely a minimum of half an hour for a car to be moved… With 7 EV spaces, I’m willing to bet it’s a large hotel/resort…

I certainly hope not.

Jessica should start selling phone cases that look like those shampoo bottles.

Stupid

If a Tesla is connected to a charger in a Tesla spot, they are being charged. You have a limited amount of time after it’s completed to remove your car from the spot or they start charging you a parking fee.

@@neilkurzman4907 Only if Tesla owns that area not all chargers are owned by Tesla. I personally know of a place that has 3 (I think it's 3 but could be more) fast chargers that were installed privately and are only for that companies employees. Your statement would be correct if you had said "If a Tesla is connected to a Tesla owned or leased charging spot". Source: I drove tow truck and we patrolled that parking lot.

@@1300BlueStar I doubt the hotel chargers are Tesla charges otherwise they would be public. On private property, the owner sets the rules about where you can and can’t park. As a tow truck driver, I guess I don’t have to tell you that.

@@neilkurzman4907 That was my point. That Tesla can only charge a parking fee at their own chargers and not all fast chargers are owned by Tesla even if the charger has the Tesla labelling and such.

I do delivery, so I spend a lot of time in parking lots waiting on orders and I have actually watched people walk up and unplug cars charging at electric parking spots. You confront them about it and they act like they're some kind of hero because they think their hotel rates are going to go up over the electricity cost. That or just some bs like "these people need to learn that they don't deserve free handouts".

Yeah, a lot of them seem to think they are better than everyone else.

Morons still park in handicapped spots.

It would actually be more conducive to issue permits to guests with EVs, and have unauthorized vehicles towed…

Towing guests’ cars probably isn’t good for business, so this makes for a simple way to reserve spots and free them up fairly quickly when needed.

@@xamyx725more conducive to what? Lol. That’s the least convenient or sensible option.

Making guests wait is not very good either

Free electricity or a charging spot???

@@macdieter23558 we have a couple free ones for hotel guests in valet. So everyone thinks they can ask. But it’s not for you. Only some.

Its not free when you pay more for the room

Not much if a plan

Sometimes I don't get notifications about new videos for days. RU-vid seems to have an issue there.

@@ghost307 yeah it’s bad

I either get mine immediately or 2 days later. No in between. And I have subscribed and clicked the button and jumped through all the hoops YT has asked me to jump through. You’re not alone in your frustration!

You realize they did that because people like you would park in the Electric spaces because you felt entitled. And then you would cry when you actually got towed. Maybe they should make a video about you

Yeah, that is going to solve everyone's problem.

@@DVankeuren I never claimed it would solve everyone's problem. But it solves mine.

Yeah, these people think they are entitled to have chargers everywhere they might park. Go to a fuel station like all other cars have to. Find a station that charges electric cars. Can't find one? should not have brought your electric car then.
