I've been retired for 7 years. I could only watch half of it because, instead of being funny, this vid just triggered me.
Same. They sound really funny if you've never experienced them, but when you have, it just reminds you of how awful some bosses really are
I never experienced all of these , but these bosses were just as-holes
I'm recently retired, many of them made me laugh, especially the hurt feelings report.
I could have handed out hundreds of those over the years to my employees.
@@MichaelClark-uw7ex I think that reflects more on you then your employees.
@@MichaelClark-uw7ex That's really not something to be proud of. If you can't take an employees concerns or needs seriously, you should have never had any employees to begin with.
These are the bosses who are whining now about how they can't find anyone who wants to work.
i wanted to click the like button but you were on 69 likes. so i'm just gonna comment here that i agreed with you instead.
Maybe somebody should show this video to these said bosses...
@@kstormgeistgem461 Don't worry man I putted it to 669 likes
And yes, I hope they are currently suffering.
And they arnt willing to take anyone with a mental disability (like autism and stuff)
Im convinced
Equal opportunity my ass
My mom was refused a promotion after working for everyone else and doing everyone else's jobs that she wasn't getting paid for. She had worked there with a bad employer, and finally said she was quitting. She found a new job which pays her what she deserves and doesn't have to do other people's jobs. 2 days after she got her new job her former employer called her back saying they needed her because the people who were supposed to be doing their jobs didn't know anything
4 months later the company goes out of business
High five mom
Edit: thanks for the likes!
When you quit carrying the squadron because you get no cash
Ahhh sweet sweet justice!
Although I guess it sucks for any others who lost their jobs because of the company going under, but that was just bound to happen
Nice
@@scharlesscalvin Yeah
@@frith.calluna yeah but hey they are probably happy knowing someone is Stress free
This shows the difference between a leader and a boss.
OMG someone else said it! Thank you very much!
Well the boss get the benefits a leader will help there peers and will have to get more bang for their buck
A good leader leads others without making them feel like they’re being lead
I read it as ladder
I am the 1000th liker
If tips went to the employeer then I'd just stop tipping entirely. The employee did the good service, not the employeer.
No restaurant pays servers minimum wage. Most pay about $2 an hour then its expected employees will make up the difference in tips. This restaurant keeping the tips should be reported to the IRS.
The manager might not be reporting it as income ... The IRS would like to know.
tipping is a disgusting practice. pay your workers a decent wage. if you cannot afford to do that, then you cannot afford to run a business. and if you can, but you dont, then you do not deserve workers or patrons.
@@Plethorality It's also messed up for multiple reasons. Paid sick leave? Sure, you make $2 per hour, that's what you get paid for sick leave. Paid vacation? Same.
@@MyRegardsToTheDodo are you serious abour tthe two dollars an hour? where is that?
@@veramae4098 is this in America? two dollars an hour!???
that is beyond embarrassing.
I had a former boss call a meeting to declare we would no longer be getting breaks of any kind, because they cost too much time. I pointed out that that's illegal, as Dutch law states you have the legal right to a 15 minute break every 2 hours. He then called off the meeting and had me stay behind, so he could threaten me both professionally and physically for my 'unacceptable behaviour' of warning him that he would get arrested for going through with his stupid idea.
Btw, he was by far the least productive person in the building. If we needed anything from him, we would start by checking outside, because he spent more time outside smoking and playing phone games than in his office. In the 4 months he was our manager, 2/3 of the staff quit.
I am fighting my current boss over forbidding breaks, it’s 4 hours for 15 minutes in the US.
Thats a lot of breaks. We get a 20 min and a 10
Are you sure your boss was not an American? Sounds just like how some of my own bosses have behaved here in the US. 😡 Glad he got fired!
@@redfailhawk
Depends on the State. Here in Colorado, it's 30 minutes unpaid for four hours, 10 minutes paid every 2 hours.
did he get arrested yet?
There is a good reason why many American companies that tried to do such crap in Europe never got a foothold here.
Some things from the video would instantly bring bosses into prison.
Same in Australia. I'm sure individuals try stuff on to see if they get away with it in franchises etc but if you call them on it, they fold. I had a guy lie straight to me about what sick leave my son was entitled to once and I knew the laws. He continued to lie. I rang their head office. Apologies from on high quick smart.
It is the usa, right?. Poor People they can't leave.
Some of these are definitely not from the USA. In fact, I'm guessing at least half. Almost every one that features money is featuring bills that aren't American.
I'm 100% certain that not all of these are coming for US based companies. There are literally pictures of non-USD bills in the video.
You're CEO's go to Jail?! Wow... (American, and that never happens here. Always a scapegoat to protect the top here. )
The boss who deducted a gift card from that guy's paycheck needs to learn how a gift works
That's technically theft of wages. Today, I'd raise a fuss with the appropriate authorities.
Right? Imagine handing someone a $50 bill only to say "I need that back" and then ripping it out of their hands
essentially taking $50 of their money and forcing them to buy from walmart without permission AND claiming its a kind gesture i.e. a gift
Agreed, I had it once where you could pay a part of your salery (say 10$) for a gift card and the business would match it (so if I said to withhold 10$ they would match it and my giftcard would have $20 when I received it, the other 10$ being from the company) was a good deal
Thing is, they had the $50 credited to their pay check, then pulled for the Gift Card. The employee did not lose $50 from their check. this is for tax purposes, and can actually get the company in a fairly large amount of trouble if not done properly.
An Amazon warehouse and a candle factory were hit by a tornado and collapsed, many died. At the sound of the first siren employees asked their manager if they could go home and were told no by management. When interviewed they lied, denying what they did.
An employee at a restraunt received a $4000 tip and was fired for not "tip sharing".
Bosses seem to be entitled a**holes.
I have to say this 'only in America'. I heard about the employee & the tip. The people who tipped swore they called in advance to make sure the individual employees would get the money and it was on that basis they chose that restaurant. The lying b*s*rd owners are still trying to cover their backsides but their story keeps changing. I'm sure it did their business a world of good seeings the whole world knows about them now.
wait, what why is nobody here talking about that?
I wouldn't have asked. I would have told my manager, "I'm going home".
Aren’t tips supposed to be for the one employee who earned it?
@@jacklay6867 yup, unless the tipper says that the tip is to be shared with all the co-workers, then it’s only for the one person who was handed the tip.
Finding a hidden camera in the bathroom and just quitting, even leaving the evidence with the suspect. Not wise.
Yeah, that was a bit boneheaded.
But at least they took a pic
Also the thing on photo is a motion detector. So either they could tell that there's a camera inside of it, or they quitted over a thing that turned the lights in the bathroom on and off (or triggered the security alarm).
@@fANYA_KOPlan
or it was the motion camera they found uninstalled and checked and found the modified motion camera that had the hidden camera in its place
hard to tell
I've seen the pic with the motion sensor. There was no camera in it, that was them misunderstanding. That picture has been shown with the original story in other/older videos.
While i was working at a fast food restaurant many years ago, I Once had a jerk boss who took over employee training room as his private office; even though there was already a manager’s office used by him & the assistant managers.
I complained to a visiting district manager; the boss got reamed, & we got our training room back. (And he got canned shortly thereafter for other discovered transgressions)😀
Awesome
What were these transgressions?
My mother worked for a Kroger for a while and was a very good employee. One day when she was filling somebody's shift, she slipped on some ice and really messed up her back. (She had had surgery on her back previously and has really bad back problems) she went to management and they threatened to fire her if she didn't "shake It off" she was 55. With a rod in her back. With three back surgeries under her belt. So she quit. They were so surprised that she actually quit and they were so understaffed because of the employees not being treated correctly- They tried begging. Obviously it failed and now she's with Aldi. Which is a far better company.
#aldiisactuallyadecentcompany
Aldi is good
I do hyvee(need to unrestrict my hours though)
@@scharlesscalvin Yeah
yeah kroger fucking sucks.
i did pickup there and was one of the only pickers willing to do the oversize trolleys (which would often reach 400 lbs and included a ton of lifting heavy objects) and so the supervisors would ask me to do them all throughout the day. i understood cause lots of the other pickers had physical health problems or were older and couldn't safely do them, and i enjoyed the exercise to an extent. but when you're doing all of the oversize almost every day for months on end, shit can take a toll. i ended up pulling something in my lower back (yes i was making sure to lift with my legs lol) and it was so painful (especially since i already have back issues, including a surgery when i was young) so i told them i needed to take a break from oversize until it got better. at first they said that was fine... until nobody was doing the oversize and we were running behind (the supervisors could have done it, and there were a couple others that could have but were just too lazy). they started asking me to do it again after just a couple days and kept pushing when i reminded them of my back, so i just did it very carefully. that shit didn't heal for months.
i only worked there for a little over a year (only left cause i moved states though) but in that time i had to endure more sexual harassment from other employees than in my entire life; even worse than when i worked as security at a warehouse truck gate (20 y/o woman working round the clock with midwest truck drivers equals some genuinely scary situations, but still not as bad as that grocery store). and my friend that worked there had it much worse than me. i had to frequently pretend i needed her help finding shit in order to get her away from this one guy in particular who wouldn't take no for an answer.
i learned very quickly that reporting any of this to management did nothing, as two of our higher ups worked at my store because they were sent away from their old stores for sexual harassment. they just did not fucking care.
before the kroger job and the security job, my only other job had been at a daycare for a few years, so i really thought all jobs were going to be like that. surprised the hell out of me at my current one to not have to deal with it at all so far (most of us in my department are women and/or queer people though so that might have something to do with it lol). trade off is that overall management sucks, rip
@@camrosie Damn rip
Fun fact! I work for a company owned by the company with a shining yellow asshole as its logo, and they tried to fire the only manager who gave a shit about the colleagues and also made sure everyone got their work done, because she was “too nice and too humanitarian”
I had a similar experience. I worked at a convenience store chain as a manager and was told by my district manager and regional manager I cared too much for my employees and to quit trying to always get the maximum pay raise for them. It was at the time .25$ they most of the time would only give them.05$ !!!! This was over 30 years ago but still only amounted to about 2% raise. Left my employment soon there after
Too nice and too humanitarian?
Boi does this society getting close to be a dystopia
@@sansclone1874 it’s the fact they were so open abt it and she only stayed in bc we all protested by clocking in and not working
Some of these bosses are scum but it did remind me of an after school job l got in a tiny burger bar nearly 50 years ago. 4 days in l got fired for being left handed. Boss said l was a great worker but, he couldn't bear to watch me "doing everything backwards". I was a bit shocked and pissed off at the time but it WAS nice not to smell of fries when l went home at night. Makes me laugh now though, also more fool him, every boss l had after him commented on what a great worker l was.
That's straight up discrimination, 100% illegal, could have sued the pants off him if you had proof...
@@renakunisaki True. It was the 70s and we really hadn't got that far with knowing our rights though. It honestly didn't occur to me for another couple of decades that he probably couldn't do that.
@@nikiTricoteuse We changed to pens from pencils in Grade 4 (70's Aussie primary school). I was the last one to get my pen because my teacher couldn't accept my writing slanting in the opposite direction to the right handers. I had to contort my hand to make my writing go the way she wanted. Never forgotten that. A few years later and she would have copped it. Funny how people will discriminate for all sorts of silly reasons when they are allowed to.
@@tkps l hear you, as someone from the days of fountain pens, I remember you had to be quite inventive to not smudge the ink. (I wrote with the paper sideways.) When I was about 40, my mum mentioned casually in passing what my teacher at the wee country primary school l went to had told her. Said he had tested me kicking a ball and that as l was clearly right footed, in his opinion, my continuing to use my left hand to write was just me being stubborn and that he was going to tie my arm to the chair til he broke me of it. WT ACTUAL F‽ Luckily, she informed him that that was not actually going to be an option.
Don't know if he would have done it regardless as he left pretty sharpish soon after. He made the mistake of giving one of the Māori kids the strap, kid went home and told his dad. Dad came charging up the hill like an avenging angel and laid the teacher out cold. Us kids had no idea what was going on so we all just buggered off home. When my mum asked why l was home l told her that Mr M had hit the teacher and the teacher was having a sleep. Teacher was on the train back to the city a day or 2 later. Makes me laugh nowadays as it couldn't have happened to a better person, reckon he'd hit all of us at least once in the few weeks he'd been there.
@@nikiTricoteuse I don't understand why it even matters which hand you use. Sorry you had a teacher like that
I remember a sandwich shop I worked for many years ago...at the end of the night, we had to throw any unused bread in the trash. We could not take any home or even donate it to the local food pantry, because it was "stealing".
that is disgusting waste.
The things we give up for fear that a poor person might get something for free.
Had a similiar thing working in a supermarket. Had to throw so many litres of Coca Cola down the drain because "they couldnt be sold anymore". The expiry date was the next day. I wasnt even allowed to buy them for the bottle deposit value. So I drank my body weight in Cola and smuggled some out in my own bottle.
@@renakunisaki why would anyone be scared of that?
I once worked at a gas station with bistro. The boss was a total jerk (for example every time he scheduled himself for a shift he wouldn't show up, so you had the shift alone, and every time a non-customer drove off without paying for their gas he would deduct that from your payment and other things, if I were in the same situation today I'd quit during one of the shifts that he didn't show up to). In the beginning we were allowed to take sandwiches and so on home at the end of the day, but then some employee ruined that by making way too many sandwiches shortly before closing time, that definitely wouldn't get sold anymore, which gave the boss a reason so we weren't allowed to take them home anymore.
I may be alone in this, but I feel like violence would be an understandable, albeit inappropriate response to many of these situations.
Definition of a GOOD Boss: NEVER EVER ask an employee to do something that you would not do yourself. EVER. Give praises when do. Criticize only to teach not to do harm.
I do things my managers and director would never do all the time. It's my job to have no sense of self-preservation. I work at an animal shelter, and if any animal comes in that is too dangerous to handle, it becomes my problem.
It at least keeps me valuable.
I would say the only exception to this is if it's a specialized task that only they are qualified for
Sad fact of life is that scum always rises to the top!

Awe! Do you want them to hold your hand and wipe your arse also? Entitled cry babies
In fairness, that Pokémon Go one is fine. It's telling them to get off their phone and focus on work, or they're fired. That's perfectly acceptable.
it is, as long as it's warranted. If your boss hands you one because you aren't working during your legally mandated break, then it's kinda, you know, illegal.
Also that could have been a conversation and not a passive aggressive note.
7:13 was one that I thought was perfectly reasonable. The boss just didn’t want people to use his towels and even provided an alternative.
@@All_Mighty672 Yeah, it’s his house. Honestly, why did she even question if he was in the wrong?
@@bascouter9030 He could’ve put the towels in a linen closet instead of being passive agressive.
The “Hurt Feelings Report’s” are not funny. My boss dares to hand me such a thing after a complaint, he would require a hurt body report.
I'd tear it up in their face.
Sure he would, and then you would enjoy prison.
While that's tempting,the better approach would just say you'll be right back,come back and "submit it" but rather than actually fill it out write in sharpie "I quit!" If you're feeling extra spicy "Fuck you, I quit." No jail time this way. Crap like these power tripping bosses are why there's a mass resignation and labor shortage,they seem to not know how to treat their employees like decent human beings.
@@WyntheRogue Ironically when looking for jobs you apply for 10 jobs and only the temp one reply.
The first one was from the ARMY, which sort of makes sense. They don't give a shit about you. The second one was just plain cruel.
Fun fact: Employers pocketing tips is illegal (edit: a good portion of these are illegal, actually). Fun fact #2: There's no good recourse when it actually happens because labor law in the US is essentially run on the honor system.
Not only that, but most employees (especially low-level hourly employees) are not on contracts; instead, they're considered "at-will". Which means, they can be fired immediately for any reason or no reason at all (of course, the employees can also quit on a dime as well without having to give notice). And, of course, it's hard for an employee to prove discrimination in this case, because no paperwork has to be written documenting cause for firing. So, yeah, US employers quite often use "at-will" contracts to be able to skirt many labor laws.
Incorrect, and most of these seem to be in Europe or Canada instead of the US.
Honor system…😂😂😂
Man, I think I lucked out on my current boss. owns like 5 franchises of our resteraunt in town. came in one day, and he was wiping down tables. talk about a king fighting his own battles.
From my experience, the best bosses are the ones who worked their way up and actually know what it's like to do entry level/lower level work. Good on him!
Gus Fring, by any chance?
A friend of mine worked at a music store selling guitars. The music rep came in one day to discuss with him about some instruments to purchase for selling. So as he is talking to the rep he asks him if he had any free t shirts. The rep says yes and hands him a Fender shirt. His boss sees this and takes it away from him and puts a $15 price tag on it and tells my buddy to go hang it out in the store for sale. So my buddy says ok and just takes it home with him after work. His boss fires him for it. So that friday he goes to pick up his paycheck and the girl working behind the checkout register tells my buddy that he cannot have his paycheck and must wait for the boss to get in to get it. So my buddy goes, well can I at least see how much my paycheck is for? So she takes it out and holds it up for him to look at the pay and he snags that mf out of her hand and walks out. Oh that was classic!
That structural pole is terrifying. Goodness gracious I hope that got fixed eventually
Anonymous call to the local building inspector or fire marshal.
well sooner or later it wont be an issue
It wasn’t that bad, yet. I worked at a warehouse/retail store and a guy with a fork lift hit a shelf and later that night hit a water pipe this flooding all the stuff inside the shelves 🤣 boss wanted us to climb up there and his boss told him no, night crew would work on that , not that it was their fault but because he didn’t want us to spend all day not helping customers 🤣
OSHA would like a good look at that.........
Don't need a structural pole if there's no structure left to support
That "hurt feelings report" made my blood boil. I can't read it that well cause the text is tiny, but I think it even say things like "whiner's name:..." on there. Disgusting.
Imagine going to your boss with a complaint, whether it's a serious one or not, and then getting that in return. I know many people aren't in a position to do so, but I'd tear that paper to shreds and quit on the spot. If you can financially support yourself until you can find a new job, just get out of there and never look back.
The things that triggered me the most were probably :I am queer __
I have woman-like hormones ___
I want mommy__
Like wtf?
@@atlaspoooog3615 Yeah that too! I posted my previous comment before I even saw that second one, which was even worse than the first imo
In a way it's almost funny because you just KNOW that ''boss'' has the most fragile masculinity out there with that ''woman-like hormones'' comment. He'd be the type of person to call another man too feminine for not having rough hands covered in calluses for sure lol
But yeah that second form was awful. Had homophobia, sexism and (iirc) racism in there. If that's not a red flag, I don't know what is.
@@atlaspoooog3615 No for real! Those had me so angry. Also, I like your pfp and username :)
Agreed. Clearly shows that the boss does not give a shit and will not change anything to accommodate anyone, even for legitimate reasons such as safety. At least they give you a red flag straight up so you can gtfo asap!
"Your story has touched my heart. Never before have I met anyone with more trouble than you. Please accept this token of my sincerest sympathy. Now go away and stop bothering me."
Royal Navy Sympathy chit. Usually dispensed to trainees who were under the impression they were entitled to every weekend off.
I can just tell that a lot of this isn't in a country with a Fair Works or a Safe Works organisation like we have in Australia because holy hell they'd tear these bosses and companies apart!
Most of them seem like it could reasonably take place in the US unfortunately
What you're looking at is the US! Yep... it's a fucking dumpster fire here...
(Edit to add for any that might read: Managers and employers are not entitled to your tips these days. I am not involved in a job that utilizes tips so I'm not up on current standards. I know Trump signed something with the DOL during his mid terms and I think the DOL has since put out some further guidance for clarification. While I pay attention the DOL I don't have anything to do with tips so not really on my radar.)
Technically a lot of this is in direct violation of labor codes in the USA but that doesn't always stop it. I'd bet everything I own there are plenty of examples in Australia of employers shafting their workers too, especially the working poor. It's easy to shit on America without looking in the mirror.
Except the "tip" thing. In Germany it's the same. But we have "Mindestlohn" 😂🇩🇪
We have some employee protections here in the US, but these photos are from situations where people were flying under the radar and getting away with it. It's not hard for a boss to get away with being shitty here because theres not enough manpower to keep tabs on everyone all the time. It's basically up to the employees to know their rights and report these kinds of things to the appropriate authorities
Just for those who didn’t get the Adobe Photoshop difference between Version 5.0 and Cs5 - well Cs5 would have been version 12 (released in 2010) and there are about 10+ years between the two versions
Oh thanks! That's very informative! I wonder if the boss was truly trolling, or was actually trying to get the right photoshop for the employee.
@@hawklegs6940 - if it would have been a nice or fun boss to work for he would have trolled first and then given the real thing - this video though was not about these kind of bosses.
In this case it is more likely the boss was very tight and at the same time living under a rock. Otherwise the employee would’t have seen the necessity to post this matter or he would have given a positive account beside it when his boss had then delivered him the Cs5 later on - he didn’t.
I just like to make the positive assumption that the boss did not want to troll the employee (because if he is not nice later on and he knows it is the wrong tool then al that is left is a jerk as a boss nobody should be working for - no matter how hard life is) and really tried to be nice, only just lacked knowledge of what was really requested and required.
Therefore rather making a kind of an ass of himself.
@@philippschwartzerdt3431 Oh no, I just meant in the way that maybe the boss is clueless about technology and thought he was actually getting the right one. Basically what you said in the second half of your post.
That was the one that made me laugh. I'm a digital imager, and remember Photoshop 5. LONG, LONG ago. hahaha
I thought I’d had some terrible bosses, but these are definitely winners of the Horrible Humans award!! 😡
If this happens in my country, the company would be shut down by now. And Western world call us developing country yet we protect employees more than employer here.
Russia?
Had a boss for a while who hired me as his "Photoshop Expert" because he wanted to learn it and he needed retouching for his wedding photography studio. He bought a very cheap PC for me to work on with very little RAM and would yell at me for how long things were taking. He was going through archives after I'd been there a month and looked at some CDs that I'd made to back up our client's wedding photos and design projects on. I had saved layered, high res psd files for some of the more complex retouching jobs or layouts with text, etc, and flattened tiffs to print from. He screamed at me for wasting space (we used a whole CD for each client's project, no matter how much or little was on it, so... ?) and demanded that I stop saving "weird" file formats. Instead I was to back up ALL CLIENT PHOTOS as jpgs. I tried to explain how layers work in Photoshop and why it was a bad idea to use a lossy format like jpgs for print files, but he threatened to fire me on the spot if I didn't shut up and do what he asked. sigh. So I did.
A few weeks later, a client came in for final approval of her wedding invitations that he'd designed, but she decided she wanted to make a few changes to the text. So my boss puts her CD into the computer, and proceeds to spend 15 minutes screaming at the screen, and then at me in front of the client, because he can't edit the text. I just said calmly, "Do you remember when I told you why using jpgs was a bad idea? This is why."
Walked out of the room, went to the back of the shop to work on the other computer, left him with the client to figure it out for himself. He had to recreate the entire layout. When he was done, he saved it as a jpg again.
Yeah, I walked out a few days later. Two months or so after that, I drove past the place and it was empty. Dunno if he went out of business or just moved. I'm guessing he went under. haha
i don't understand why people go through the effort and cost of hiring an expert just to ignore them when it comes to the technical details of getting something done, generally if I hired someone for a job I just give them a list of criteria to meet and ask them if they can deliver on it. if not it becomes a series of questions on what's reasonable or not.
Damn, why don't these employers hang a sign that reads, 'Arbeit Macht Frei' and be done with it.
It's nauseating how people will "treat" their employees. It's no mystery that people dream of being their own boss or not having to work at all. I've always hated office politics and the "we don't want fair, we want quiet" attitude. "Take this job and shove it" would've been a good song to play in the background.
I AINT WORKING HERE NO MO.
Gee, why are so many employees quitting?
hell fucking no they called it "theft of electricity" LMAOOOOO
You're right - under UK law, at least, the note is incorrect. Theft is defined as "dishonestly appropriating property...". It has been argued that electricity isn't a tangible "property" as such ,so a separate offence of "abstracting electricity" exists under the Theft Act to cover it.
The employees would therefore be "abstracting electricity".
I've seen this when it comes to having things like microwaves and mini fridges (that I understand because they draw more power and they are a potential liability for the employer), but a phone, really that's just ridiculous.
In Germany he would be right.
We get people hired bc of this bullshit.
I once get a warning from my school for "using their electricity" 😒
I payed nearly 87 Euro cents 😂

I uaed to install carpet years ago. It was alright for a while, then my boss started shorting my checks and paying me late. The final straw was when I was spreading glue on a concrete floor and my kneepad slipped. I stopped to adjust it and he yelled "Keep going!" I told him I needed to fix my kneepad. And he says "I don't care! Keep going!". I was seriously thinking about knocking him out. I went out for a smoke and got a call from a good friend saying he needed another guy for his asbestos abatement crew and he'd pay more than what I was making. I walked in, grabbed my backpack, told my boss to F*k himself and drove off. He called and asked where I went and I said "What part of 'go F*k yourself' did you not understand? I quit! Don't call me again until you have my final check ready". That felt good.

I can’t tell you how many times I had to take the trash out by myself AFTER DARK when I worked at the mall. And when I worked at the dollar store? Forget it. That place was so screwy and DIRTY. My manager didn’t even bother changing the mop water every day and there were a few cockroaches
It isn't just small business that do this crap. After an employee at a large, well-known aerospace company on the same contract as me died suddenly, it was mere days before said company started asking their mourning friends and colleges to look at resumes for a replacement. I am thankful to this day I walked out of an interview with them.
He needed to be replaced.
It's business. Not personal.
And the media asks why the "Great Resignation" in the USA is such a big thing now.
During the COVID era, people got such fat gibs as unemployment that it was more profitable NOT to work. Then they never came back.
Using the break room to teach CPR instead of the training room may make sense. Our training room is mostly taken up by a huge conference table, while the break room has several small tables. The tables in the break room can be easily moved to provide a big floor space for CPR practice. The huge conference table, not so much.
I thought the same. The note also said to use the training room to take a break, so it wasn't like the employees had no place to take their breaks.
I honestly felt like there were a lot that were completely understandable. Don’t get me wrong, most of the examples shown were bosses being jerks, but some of these felt like people were complaining about nothing. Like the one where the boss was hosting a Christmas party for his employees (which I would be very grateful for) but didn’t want people to wipe their hands on the nice, white towels that were probably just there for decoration. The person taking the picture was a lot more of an asshole in my opinion.
@@burkereid6401 In my opinion that christmas party case was a perfect example of "If you didn't want them to use it why would you leave it out?" it would have taken less time for the boss to put those towels away or just tuck them out of view than writing and hanging the note as they did. if kids are coming over you put away breakables, if you are having a party you put away valuables. Clearly he valued these towels and should have simply put them away. I absolutely find no fault in him not wishing them to be used by a countless amount of people at a party in the bathroom (I personally don't trust that all of my coworkers wash their hands) they could have gotten very gross very fast. it just seems like a lowkey asshole move to put the note up? like it might be in this compilation because it feels like a similar vibe to bosses who will post signs in all caps above coffee machines that read: "Coffee is for full-time employees ONLY". Like it may be true but it sorta feels like they are being an asshole about it if that makes sense
It’s also possible that the managers just wanted to have a private break with the door locked
@@lilithium3940 It doesn't make sense. It may have made more sense to stow the towels away, but the note was entirely polite and reasonable. Anybody complaining about it is just being whiny for the sake of being whiny.
To be fair, a couple of these sound like jokes that got taken the wrong way - the boss's puppy for one - and the last one warning an employee not to play games on their phone during work hours... perfectly reasonable. The others though... pretty shitty behavior and/or lack of basic management skills.
The thing that bugs me in that last one is the employer took the time to make a passive aggressive notice instead of just talking to the person and resolving it in a productive manner.
@@13vatra As far as I understood it the boss handed that note to everybody, regardless if they were actually playing mobile games or not.
@@MyRegardsToTheDodo oh gotcha. Yeah that makes more sense. Still a shitty way to do it, but completely reasonable on the point it's making.
@@MyRegardsToTheDodo I used to work in a health care facility where the staff not only played games on their phones, they also hung around the patients' rooms to watch TV. Verbal reprimands were routinely answered with, "What about them? Why are you singling me out?" On the day I left, I took one last look at the floor and the usual culprits were still at it as usual.
Some bosses become jerks for a reason.
@@13vatra It shows massive distrust and isn't good for morale if nobody was playing the game. Just put up a note on the blackboard/in the break room, where every employee can see it.
That pecan pie once pisses me off more then all the other ones
I don't even have a job yet and I wanna slap the frick outta these bosses.
They're taking the title of the "boss" to just "bossy".
Every one of my past employers would look at these and say, " I can't see what the managers did wrong. The workers probably just misunderstood."
These bosses reminded me. We were HVAC mechanics working to repair a large refrigerant leak in a boiler room. It's kind of urgent as it is for commercial building with about 500 occupants. We can't lite the boiler to provide heat because burning the Freon would create a poisonous gas. Boiler rooms have a large ventilation louvers to provide air for combustion and to relieve pressure when the boiler fires up. So, they collect a lot of dust. We are making repairs as quickly a possible when our new foreman walks in telling us we need to stop and clean up the mess. Being Journeyman mechanics we ignore him and finish the job. The foreman had been transferred from custodial services and when we told our shop Supervisor he just laughed and said give the guy time to learn. We are required have years of training, experience and a certification. Yet, Human Resources gives us a Foreman with no knowledge of the trade.
As someone who worked at a restaurant, the food in the garbage can KILLS me. The employers literally prefer to THROW AWAY FOOD instead of giving it away, and for what I see, it's the same all over the world. I had to stop for a moment when I saw that, it drives me insanely mad.
Exactly. As a road worker, I use cafes and restaurants frequently as they're cheaper and healthier than truck stops. I would be pissed if I saw food go to the bin. Lord knows my sandwich didn't cost them $12 to make so they can damn well give something to the hungry.
I know one of the reasons they don't is because of lawsuits. It's shitty, I know, but some people will turn around and take them to court if they end up getting sick or have an allergic reaction because of the food.
The one at 1:10 has happened to our casino where they gave us a $50 gift card to Safeway but you can only use it for food and it expires within a week of getting it and the $50 was taken directly out of our checks needles to say we all collectively told the managers to put the money back on our checks and if not we would all walk out there were over 200 employees ready to walk out. ( For extra contexts this isn't the first time the casino has screwed over the employees.)
my grandmother told me she had to work a really long time for a terrible manager so she could pay for my mom and aunt's college. Once they were in, she was out.
Quit my job of 3 years about 6 months ago, when I put my 2 week notice. They asked what would they need to do to keep me since I knew how to run the whole department was even backup lead a couple times. I asked for a raise of $3, which was still less than the lead himself so I found it reasonable since the lead only knew how to be lead basically. Their decision was to give me a raise of $1 so it was the same as the guy I was training in, who also was only a temp employee for the summer. At my new job, I'm already making $0.50 more in 6 months of working there, and I took a $2 pay deduction for starting pay when I started.
Ungrateful employer: "Why is everyone resigning from their jobs???"
Mike Jetlov: "... FIND OUT!!!"
Mike Jittlov? Mike Jittlov? That's a name I haven't heard in a long time...a long time.
I had a boss that when I told her I was giving her my three weeks notice (I gave her more time in the hopes she would give me someone to train for my position) and she begged me to stay on for 2 more months because she agreed to send me to these other after school programs without ever informing me of them. She just planned to tell me day of and probably at 3am (this was a regular thing and a very big mark of why I quit among others). For context, I worked as a cooking instructor for children. I loved my job. The job itself was wonderful. It was very fulfilling. However, due to her mismanagement I missed the birth of my nephew, I rarely got any time off (and when I did I was guilt tripped), I ran class sizes that were way too big and way to young to expect any level of independence, she often over promised what we were supposed to be doing without ever informing us, never took our side, we had a constant turn over we employees were blamed for and were constantly short staffed because of (most times we never got to even meet this new employee), we were paid minimum and often got passive aggressive guilt trips of “if only you were better” and were passed on for any among of raises or promotions, we were NOT EVER given training before leading classes (that should have been my first red flag), and so so much more. And oh! Yeah, we got lesson plans the DAY of the classes at 3am and were expected to respond within an hour or less. I had so much anxiety and burnout after that job that my therapist I got after, and whom I told all these horror stories to, said she would have recommended I quit that job if I hadn’t already. We worked a lot on dealing with the burnout of it after. I couldn’t even meditate properly afterwards as I would just feel so empty I would start crying. I absolutely loved my job, don’t get me wrong, but the management was so poorly handled that I absolutely couldn’t stay and so I quit when it was a slow period. Oh! And yeah, she never hired another person to take over all the offsite classes I was running single handedly so I had no one to train in those three weeks. She still, somehow, thought I might decide to stay. I gave her an exit interview and everything but I was finally so exhausted from it all that I think it showed. I basically just told her to treasure her team, because they were actually good people who worked very very well together and were very talented. I did hear some news about the place recently. The corporate office took it back over (it was a franchise) and I heard that they wanted to hire me again. I have, however moved on, and am trying for jobs that have more benefits in health insurance (not ever provided at that job) and better chance for advancements and raises. I’m going to school for nursing actually. That job taught me a lot, and I loved it, but I don’t ever think I’ll go back. Maybe only if I desperately need a job at all. Or just want to do so part time. Don’t foresee having enough down time for a part time however.
my condolences for having to deal with a boss that incompetent.
9:30 I think the boss has a point there, I’d be upset if MY employees were just playing Pokémon Go all day instead of working.
exactly the boss has an actual point there
As a manager, I agree as well. Until Pikachu starts signing your paycheck, get your damn face outta your phone and serve the customer.
Minimum effort for minimum pay.
From the way the post was phrased, the employee probably didn’t even play the game. It was one of those “I don’t even do this so why are you telling me not to?” type thing.

As a manager for a small business, this all sounds horrifying
People are shocked when I pop em in the mouth when they scream "everyone's hiring, go get a job". Then I quietly go back to working on multiple online hustles by myself. There is a reason everyone is hiring and its about time these employers started getting tazed and dragged to jail, not just go out of business. I know the bathroom camera thing alone is jail worthy, especially if someone underage walked in there and used it.
Almost six years out of high school and people wonder why the only jobs I've had are childcare and housecleaning. I'm terrified of this.
3:56 somebody should just dress up as the lorax and just walk around work all day like that 😂
200% chance these bosses say “No one wants to work anymore.”
Makes me appreciate the bosses I had. NEVER any crap like this. Thanks Darrel and Paul.
The guy at 5:26 probably shouldn’t be flashing that around to too many new employees. That’s a quick payday for minimal work.
Pffft, remember the time my employer stole all our tips for months?! AND THEN NEVER GOT THEM BACK BECAUSE THEIR SON AKA THE NEXT EMPLOYER BAILED THEM OUT?! 😂
Almost all of them are despicable bosses/policies. However on the last one.. what's wrong with expecting you to be working instead of wasting the time you are getting paid for?
2:44
I don’t know if you work in the US or whatever but if it is your legal day off, your boss cannot force you to come in with a threat of you being fired, you can get him fired for actually saying that.
In some states, an employer can force you to come into work for overtime, as long as you’re properly compensated. In California, you get time and a half after 8 hours of work and double time after 12.
Happens all the time in the UK armed forces and police force.
@@robertstallard7836, military has completely different rules. In pretty much every nation's military, you forfeit most basic rights when you join up.
A few ones were OK. Like the last one or the one where the order of spices was accidentally messed up. That can happen. Many others though...... these places need more communication and some of them need help from authorities outside the company. Nothing good comes from staying quiet while feeding further into the circumstances.
fire the bosses.
The last one is only sort of ok if that employee actually played mobile games on their phone during work hours. But I understood that the boss gave that note to every employee, therefore showing that he/she has a general lack of trust in them.
I also disliked the last one as an employee should not be playing mobile games during work hours.
@@characidedreemurrofficial6960 So, you wouldn't be annoyed if you did never play mobile games during work hours and after returning from your break you found this note on your workplace? Not on the blackboard for all to see, but right next to your PC or on your chair?
@@MyRegardsToTheDodo I wouldn't be annoyed, I would just ask if it was meant for me, because I don't have any games like that on my phone.
As a food lover, seeing those unused meals in the trash hurts both my soul and my appetite.
1:27 This happens ALL THE TIME in restaurants and retail.
I have no shame in admitting I’ve eaten food from the garbage bin because it was perfectly good food that would otherwise go to waste.
It does happen a LOT, because a lot of state laws require perfectly good food be destroyed rather than given away.
7:30 I would have walked at that point. No questions. That’s an insult to any graphic artist worth their skill.
I worked for Goodwill and let’s say that place was awful. People think they are a good company that take donations and help people. But in reality they are awful. I worked for the computer store. They had crazy high profit margins for each day that we never reached, crappy people working there, and on and on. I mean there was a guy about to get promoted to full time. But the guy never came in on time. Was always an hour late or more working a few hours a day. Lol. My manager was an idiots d the guy above him was the one coming to offer the job. I had to tell him what was going on. I did payroll, was lead tech, and I worked only 3 days a week. It was shitty.
I'm soooooo glad I work for myself. This video filled me with a rage I can not fully express.
We have to put up with shit like this and they wonder why no one wants to work for them. Get the asshole managers out of your business and you might have more success attracting talent. Also, learn the difference between being a leader and a boss. One will create a successful business. The other will tank.
The colon cancer one hit me hard. My parent was diagnosed with it and almost fied. He's fine tho, that a hole better have been fired for his wording.
There are many comments here with real people's sour experiences of horrible bosses. I would recommend that anyone dissatisfied with their work situation have an exit plan. I literally threw my resignation at my manager who had forgotten that he'd authorized 4 weeks annual leave. So much for the minimum notice required. He struggled to fill the void of the numerous resignations and relied on Asian students. 6 months later the pandemic hit and Australia effectively banned them entry. I was paid: long service leave, flexi time, and extra annual leave and took an early retirement. The pattern with a toxic workplace is: high staff turnover rate, low pay and shit working conditions. Many of these managers were clearly bullied as children and see the workplace as their chance to get some payback. The beauty of the internet is that you can now check up beforehand on a prospective boss and find out what former employees have to say. If you are stuck in a bad situation then I offer this advice: don't engage in idle conversation with an asshole. When the boss asks questions give him 3 answers: yes, no and I don't know. Further conversation is not required for a complete bastard. Eventually, they will give up on idle chit chat and only engage you on work related matters.
This video makes me happy that I’m an unemployed stay at home mom to my son with Autism. Lol! He’s my boss and he’s pretty nice he tells me he loves me and everything.
9:30 To be completely honest, I have really wanted to put that letter on the desk of a few of my coworkers.
Some people don't understand that their job is to work, not goof around on their phones/handheld games all day
That "Hurt Feelings Report" Possibly cannot be real
I was harassed so badly at my last job that I nearly had a heart attack from the stress and was fired because my doctor's return to work note clearing me to resume working didn't include any medical accommodations required to prevent it from happening again. I'm not sure why "Stop being a jackass to your employees" needed to be spelled out.
I once worked at a job that was so bad I'd have mental break downs over the tiniest thing because of the pressure. No schedule, they'd call me the day they wanted me with no pre-warning, and not even early. Sometimes I got. The call after 10, 11 ish. If I wasn't available (tho I'd had no warning) they'd get mad I wasn't available. If I tried to book a day off in advance (so I could actually have a life) the boss would break down crying. There's a lot more I could name, and I mean a LOT, but the reason I quit should tell it all.
I booked a week vacation time Litterally a whole year in advance, it was approved with no issue. When my week that was booked came up they said I couldn't take it. The reason? Everyone else who worked there quit bc of how bad it was and if I left they'd have no one to do work there that week.
So I quit.
Anyways I saw a previous employee they had fired for not doing her job right there when I drove by sometime later. The funny thing is in the two years I worked there this employee was fired and rehired a minimum of seven times bc she was the only one willing to work there
My first (and current) job... I know all too well the stress of being called in regularly and without warning. I hate it, though it's not really my boss's fault. He tries to call his other workers, but a lot of them refuse to answer the phone, and a lot of times he'll get people calling off for stupid whiny reasons, the sniffles, the "I don't feel good" type stuff. And there've been more than one occasion of suspected lying, people saying they're sick but they've been seen in town and they looked perfectly fine. A lot of times, when I'm scheduled a day off... I can't actually trust that I do, in fact, have the day off. So from the time I get up until about 3-4PM, I'm finding it difficult to find the motivation to do much at home, because I know that if I get started on something the phone will ring. Though here soon, because my family is not doing well health-wise, I might just tell the boss, who is a good guy who I very much like working for, that I might have to quit if this doesn't let up. Nothing personal against him, he's a nice boss, and I like him, but I just can't take the constant call-ins.
I had a manager that would be with and help you schedule your vacations, making sure its a good time for everyone etc. 6 days before you were slated to leave, she would pull you aside and say it was a bad time and you couldn't go. Fortunately others in the department had told me of this habit, so the two times she did this to me I told her she had better arrange for the company to reimburse me my share BY my start date for the vaca due to my disgruntlement, get the money back from whatever my falily had prepaid on my stead so I could get their money too, and have the time within two months where I could take the vacation instead. I got to go on the origional date every time, and if I had shorter notices for smaller trips she kept her trap shut. Remember kids, there's lots of jobs out there, and you aren't a slave, you are an employee with a life.
Whenever I asked my one boss for leave I would be told it was inconvenient , so instead of taking 3 weeks I would only be allowed a week . When I left there I had 4 months leave still due to me , he refused to pay because we weren't allowed to accumulate leave .
It made me feel good when turnover dropped more than 30% after I left .
0:32 Yeah, that's a lawsuit waiting to happen. VERY ILLEGAL.

2:46 Seriously, most employment lawyers work on contingency.
2:54 Meaning you don't to pay until you win your case.

6:26 Because bosses like this are really stupid.

My first vacation in 8 months, and my boss casually asks on Friday when I'm "flying out" for my vacation. I unthinkingly respond, "Oh, I'm not, it's a staycation." "Oh, then can you come in this weekend?!?"

The Walmart gift card one has been debunked. The employee fails to show that the 50 is in addition to their regular pay, then deducted. They do it that way for tax reasons. Regardless of how you feel about the tax shenanigans, the employee was not screwed over in that situation.
They were gifted 50 in the form of a gift card by the company, who recorded it as an extra 50 in wages to save on payroll tax. It was still a 50 dollar bonus vs the hours the employee worked.
As a lawyer in employment law it goes "There is no such thing as a gift from an employer." The IRS considers it income and must be reported and taxed. After all, the government deserves their third or half of your Christmas present.
