    What's sad about the hayride is that the children reached out to a stranger for comfort instead of their daddy. Tells a lot about the children's trust in their parents.

    Hotel story: She took WAYYYY too long to call security. The foot in the door stunt was a big red flag. Once she got the door closed, the next thing was to call security, not continue to pack. Even if the guy stopped pounding on the door, he could have been waiting to ambush her when she left the room. Her even considering to show that her key wouldn't work was stupid.

    For the hotel room key creep, keep in mind that devices exist that can clone a hotel room key. I believe the Flipper Zero can do it fairly easily. He could try the key next door, copy the key into whatever device he has, give you back your key, then use his clone of your key to let himself in at some hour when you would possibly be asleep, and do something horrible to you.

      Spit is on the harmless end of schmoo people might put in your food if you act like you are a terrible and entitled excuse for your species. One of the funny things about food service on the low end of the spectrum (fast food) is that as a customer you have NO IDEA if the employees you are treating like vermin are already planning to quit, just waiting for some a55ha+ or +hund3rcun+ to perform their special Karen/Kevin magic.

When that clown kept insisting that OP give him her key even after she said she didn't work there - wow! That raises a HUGE red flag.

I wore a smock in a color I promise none of the employees at any store I serviced ever wore. But I also wore a name tag. So, despite the name of my company being on me and my boxes, I occasionally had to use the "I don't work here" line.
    Honestly, if I could work fast enough and it paid more, I would have kept doing it. Coincidentally, I left the job right before COVID started. So I probably would have been laid off or fired. (It wasn't a food or essential product. So the job wouldn't have been worth the risk.)

    Story 2: I can relate to this. Years ago, I moved to a new state and got a new phone number. If you switched 2 of the digits around, it was the number of a massage parlor, and no, not for legitimate physical therapy. I kept getting calls from guys trying to make appointments. For a while I did give them the correct number to call after telling them that they had reached a wrong number, but I'm a woman, and don't approve of prostitution, so I made several complaints to the phone company, and was finally given a new number. I found out in the news a short time later that the place was raided by the police. I actually knew where it was, because it was on a local highway, and had a sign out front advertising massages. Unfortunately, the replacement phone number also had issues. Debt collectors kept trying to reach the former holder of that number. Had I changed the number again so soon, I would have had to pay a fee, so I quickly learned to ignore calls from unknown numbers.

I'm taking my lunchbreak regardless of what Karen has to say about it. you cannot and will not stop me from leaving for my break, so I'll be back when my lunch break is over." and then walked my happy little ass out to take the lunchbreak.

    Story number 2 happened to my late mother with a land line phone over 20 years ago. She got a new silent number. All good for a few weeks. She then started getting the phone calls like the ones in the story once or twice a week. My sister would answer the phone and tell them they had the wrong number. Some of the men were extremely rude when told that. We discovered by doing a search of the yellow pages that a brothel had a similar phone number, so similar that if someone rang mum and accidentally switched the last 2 digits around they would have rung the brothel. When one man rang, mum decided to play along when he asked the ages of the ladies working there. Mum replied “I’m 75, will I do?” Mum said he hung so fast. My sister answered the phone another time and tired of getting abuse on the phone she told them that were closed due to an outbreak of STDs and hung up. Mum applied for a new number but had to endure these calls until it was changed.

    Let’s leave all the lazy employee stuff on the shelf. How would that guy feel if he was on his government mandated lunch break and someone thought he was being lazy so threw his food in his face? I used to work for a big grocery chain. And I would have had to completely change my clothes on my lunch or break if I didn’t want to get stopped by a customer. Management was all “You have to take your lunches and breaks on time or the labor bureau will fine us!” And then the next minute, “I saw you turn down a customer who asked for help, you have to HELP the customer!” Okay which trumps which?

The dry goods manager went on tyrade trying to flex their nonexistent authority over grocery venders. Which ened when grocery co-manager caught them and was fired on the spot.
    Story 5: Where I grew up at sadly had neglectfull parents who took ther to young kid on a scary hay ride left them with what they thought was one the people who worked there So they could enjoy the ride without their kid ruing it for them by screaming all the time. Thankfully a actual staff member caught the person trying drag the kid off to do unmentionable things. The child predator was arrested and prosecuted for trying to kidnap the kid and other charges. The neglectfull parents did get in trouble too for abandoning their kid with that stranger. It later was revealed that they would do that all the time when they wanted to go have fun somewhere. In the end CPS did take the child away to live with more responsible family members.

    @YellaBellaReno 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Hotel story: Oh, babe… this wasn’t just because of the AVN awards. This can happen at pretty much any hotel, at any time. This must be a young woman.
    On my first international trip, I traveled with a group of girl friends and a group of guy friends. On our first night in London, we all went down to the hotel bar. We started talking and drinking with some other hotel guests, as you do. At some point, we ladies are getting a little tired, and decide we are gonna take our last drink up to the room (all the girls were staying in a separate room on a different floor from the guys). When we announced this to the guys, one of them said, “You’re gonna take your drinks to bed? Wooo! Party in room 405!” That’s when all the girls mean mug him, pull the guys aside, and explain that they are never to say our room numbers out loud in public.” They apologize, but sort of insist we are over reacting.
    Out of an abundance of caution, when we get to the room, we lock the door, tie a knot in the chain to make it shorter, and push the desk up against the door. Sure enough, a few hours later, there is a wiggle of the door knob, then a light knocking and mumbling, then a pounding, then kicks and screaming. We had called security at the wiggle. Security didn’t come. We call again. No one comes. We call again, and they call our guy friends’ room and try to send them up. Only one wakes up and comes, sees that the guy has basically broken our door in half, and goes down stairs to get someone to help. The hotel staff refuse, at which point, my friend asks them to open the bar back up and give him two beers. He then comes back up to the room and bribes the drunk man we’d be drinking with earlier away with more booze. The whole process took over half an hour. Nearly 45 minutes of this man hacking away at our door, screaming “Ladies! LaaAAAaadies! Let me in, ladies! Let me in you fucking teases! Let me in or I will make you let me in!” It was terrifying and enraging all at once. By the end, 4 of us in that room were pushed up against the door, holding the barricade. The 5th friend was on the phone, begging the hotel to call police or send security. My most badass friend had even broken a leg off a chair, ready to swing if he got through.
    The next morning, all the guys apologized to us. They hadn’t even locked their own door that night, they were so drunk. For the rest of the month abroad, they did not repeat their mistake. Although, I don’t think they all grasped that this man meant us real harm; one or two felt it was just because he was blind drunk. 🙄 Now obviously, we were not the only people on our floor that night, and thus, not the only people who called the front desk. By that afternoon, we got word from hotel management that the entire night team had been fired for refusing to help, and putting other guests in danger. We were refunded for our 3-night stay, and the door was fixed by the next night.

So here I am trying to eat and this utter @#%% decides he wants a refill on his drink and aggressively insisting that I need to go get it for him.

    To be fair, the dude was entitled to be served (that's how customer service works. A customer walks in, staff serve them.), but the response he gave after is where he got "a**hole" attached to his "entitled" title. Customers are entitled to be served, but never so much so that employees are lesser lifeforms in a way that warrants being treated as such (essentially, a proper company will view it as "customers first, staff second, corporate interests third", in other words, despite their obvious importance, staff are less important to a business than customers).

    I had a bit of an opposite situation to the second story. I was the one messaged by a prostitute by wrong number. I suddenly started getting texts of her nudes. Looked about mid 20s with tattoos. I awkwardly told her I think she had the wrong number. She responded by saying "Fuck! I messaged the wrong boy!". But then she kept sending me more pictures, and kept trying to entice me to meet her. I told her I was a boring 36 year old man who really doesn't give a crap about a younger woman coming on to me. But she didn't stop. I ended up having to block her number.
