Ive always been looking for a channel like this that didn't use an AI voice
@@raeganhayes1366 EmKay and rSlash are the main OGs of reddit recapping, but yeah, most of the imitators seem to phone it in with AI. You can really tell from the format of the video, trying to imitate the gradual-reveal-of-text style while having a really bad robot voice...

I feel like coming to an adult store and seeing a ninja at the cash register would probably encourage some repeat customers.
I know, I'm surprised someone with such a lack of humor owns an adult store.
Can't wait to hear this story
This is literally the only anecdote in this video that makes absolutely no sense without context, lmfao! This made me think that he was “on the spectrum”, lol!
@@MateDrinker33…why is on the spectrum in quotes? Genuinely not trying to be mean, I would like to know because to me it sounds like you’re being somewhat sarcastic by putting that in quotes. If anything, the fact that you acknowledge that Autism is a spectrum shows you are much more knowledgeable about the condition than most people, which further confuses me about the saying being in quotes. I’m on the spectrum myself, and I’m genuinely just curious why you put that in quotes.
@@V1_The_Machine Some people put slang in quotes. Or also to show that the 3 separate words of: on the spectrum, are referring to one singular thing as well. But my guess is they put the quotes because it's somewhat slang, as in not the official term of diagnosis. Hope this helps!
I got paid for sleeping for 6 hours at work. I was called as a standby driver at 4am. arrived ready and raring to go only to be told make yourself comfortable in the canteen. Several mugs of tea later i dozed off in the corner. was woken at 11am and sent out delivering. Got paid 15 hours. WIN WIN
Jessh unless someone catches you, on the job…
@@angelpandadaylane4924. The supervisor actually said get your self comfortable and if we want you to do a run we will wake you. One of them jobs where it was actually cost effective to have a driver sat around than miss a deadline. many times I spent the day there for 10 hours reading my book.
@@angelpandadaylane4924catches you sleeping, while waiting as a standby driver? There’s nothing to do. It’s not like productivity is affected negatively.
I've had a job like that. You're paid to wait so you're immediately available, and they don't care what you do whilst you wait. For a driver, snoozing so you're well rested makes safety sense
One of my first jobs was transporting engineers and conductors for two major rail roads. They have crazy strict rules about work hours for those guys and when they hit their limit the train stops. Period. So they needed us to go drop of replacements and retrieve our weary warriors. Thing is I always assumed trains were super high tech GPS big busy room with tons of screens monitoring everything. NOPE. Hand radios and lots of paper work and eyeballing out the ass.
I would get called out to standby a yard for a train to get built and follow them. Got there at 3am. 2:45pm they tell me they aren’t going to need me today and to go home LOL. Paid the entire time to play on my phone.
Story 4 it’s really good that they fired her. “You’ll see” sounds like she was going to poison allergic coworker to prove it wasn’t real. And the Story 12 girl should’ve applied for a Groomer Job.
Yea that girl in story 12 wasn't bright
Something about the line “Violating my unwritten 11th rule, don’t try to murder people” is just such a funny line, 10/10 writing on that one
Damn, I always forget that one. They should really write these down

Freeman clearly prefers oxy... and not oxygen. You can't get high off oxygen.
The sad thing about #12 is the girl, as well as acting from POV of loving dogs, probably thought she was being "proactive, showing initiative, and being "a self starter".
She'd be a great volunteer at a shelter once she learns to take direction.
Also I haven't worked or applied for a job in 25+ years so I'm horrified that all the BS phrases were so memorable!
I fell asleep at work once during my lunch break. HR guy was walking through the lunch room just as it was time for me to clock back in. Though I was so out of it that I couldn't move I could actually hear what was going on around me. Someone was about to shake me awake to clock back in but the HR guy said "Nah, let her sleep." What the heck?! Weirdly I didn't get fired either. After I had heard him I struggled myself awake not too long after so I didn't get in trouble. Maybe about fifteen, twenty minutes. If I recall correctly he actually had told the manager of the department where I worked that I was sleeping and that he was allowing it. Something like that. It was a slow day at the store and our department was really slow to begin with on any given day.
My whole thing was I was always completely dependable at the places where I worked. So they generally gave me leeway for certain things.
I was really lucky at my last call center job. I was the only person on-site for the on-call help desk on Saturdays during the day shift, and we had a cot. We never got calls, so once the afternoon hit if I was tired I rolled out the cot we had in the office and took naps in 30 minute increments, checked for voice mails or new tickets, and then went back for another 30 until I felt refreshed. 12 hour shift from 8AM to 8PM for the back half of the week, alternating Wednesdays. Pretty sweet gig for tier 1 help desk
I wasn't the one doing the firing, but she didn't even make it to the first shift. I was working at a daycare, I'd been told the new girl would be working with me for her first day, when I arrived at work, I was told she'd been fired before even showing up. Basically, since she was recomended by her aunt, a well respected employee, the boss only did the background check as a formality after hiring her. She was a convicted child abuser...
YIKES
Honestly fire her aunt, assuming she knew
I would be questioning that aunt to be quite frank. She’s a well-respected employee, sure, but the fact remains that she still has a convicted child abuser in her family. That can’t go unnoticed.
Of course, reason I say question and not outright fire is because it is entirely possible the aunt didn’t know that was going on. We don’t know how close they were, so it’s possible this could have happened far enough away that that information didn’t reach her. That or if she did know, ask if the aunt was complicit in the abuse. Could be she had nothing to do with it and had the unfortunate task of trying to get that person back on their feet in an effort for them to turn over a new leaf. If that happened then it shouldn’t be enough to fire the aunt, but enough to get second opinions on anything she recommended.
Only if the aunt knew and was complicit in the child abuse should this be enough to fire her.
It’s kind of like the hierarchy of being a money mule where many start as unwitting and then overtime some turn into complicit money mules. I say it that way because at least those who remained unwitting would stop communicating with their scammers once they learned what they were doing was illegal; meanwhile, complicit money mules know what they’re doing, continue to do it, and even recruit new money mules into their schemes.
@@markwilson4078 She was questionned, and around a month later she was gone for unrelated reasons, officially that is. As of why she recommanded her niece despite knowing, she was in total denial about the whole thing, for her it was all a big misunderstanding, her niece is someone who'd never do something like that and anyone who'd just take the time to listen to her niece's side of the story would realise it.
@@xegin1572 Ah okay! In that case, I would say the right thing was done here. Thank you for clearing that up!
On the other spectrum. One guy showed up for a job interview. Well. OK. But we didnt plan any. Turned out he walked in to wrong facility, but as we needed people, we hired him on spot. God, that was so funny. We called him tourist for few days :D
I used to work in HR for an organisation with offices around the country. One day we were contacted by a manager in one city to ask about one of his staff (Fred) who had been on sick leave. Fred had apparently turned up in our office in another city 600 kilometres away, saying he was now well and ready for work and that God had told him to come work here. The manager in that city, rather than tell him to go away, gave him a desk and a job...
Guy didn't make it out of orientation, He wouldn't shut up and refused to cooperate on a task they had set up and told us about before hand so they walked him out right there.
I have a story! Worked 3rd shift at a grocery store. Was training a new hire for cashier duties when she asked how many people were there. I told her(truthfully)that usually it'll be just the cashier up front, and one or two managers and a stock person putting product up, but they were easily reachable if/when you needed something. She got this deer in headlights look on her face, and declared that she was "assured" by HR in her interview that there would ALWAYS be two cashiers, at least 4 other people stocking, and a freaking security person there for every shift. I just looked at her, and said that's not what happens. When I saw HR person in the morning, she also had no clue why that person claimed that, and she never showed up for another shift again.
That sounds like really bad anxiety that needs to be medicated.
I didn't personally experience this, but I worked as an HR Assistant and noticed that a prior employee was listed as only having worked for one day. I asked my boss about it, and she said that he had passed the interview, been hired, and told to bring some proof of ID for the intake process. He arrives for his first day and reports to her without them, so she takes further pity on him (The usual process was to bring ID before being hired and she was already doing him a favor by letting him bring it on his first day) and urges him to rush home and get them. He leaves and is never seen again-being formally fired at the end of the day when it was clear he wasn't coming back. Since he reported to her before clocking in for his first day, his total time worked was 0 minutes.
I watched a girl get fired because she fell asleep during orientation. She kept complaining she was sooooooo tired, but the boss didnt care. Lol
Not fired, the guy quit. At the time I was working as a casual for a council and a new guy fronted up one morning. I told him what we'd be doing and he said he'd just go park his car. We never saw him again. Time on site: less than 15 minutes. Sure we'd had fellas leave after a few days before, but not even a quarter of an hour? Sheesh.
I got fired *before* my first day. But I *did* get to go to the Xmas party.
I was hired to start on Monday, but the boss was told to let everyone go on Monday as they were closing the office. I was asked to go to the Xmas party so nobody got suspicious.
Strangest and most uncomfortable thing ever.
Christmas* party
I was recently hired for my first job, worked 3 hours, and was fired!
I didn’t do anything wrong, and I think I actually did really well and made sure to help out my coworkers. I was let go because a previous employee quit and decided to come back, taking the position back from me.
16:42 Without knowledge of what exactly the job in this story is, I have to point out that it is an unfortunate fact that job postings listing a weight-lifting requirement is a crapshoot as to whether or not the job actually requires it in a number of cases. The job the poster is telling us about might actually need it, but it is an unfortunate reality that a LOT of online job postings will use that type of language purely as a way to screen out disabled applicants without leaving proof of an explicit EEO/ADA/etc violation. If it's something like a warehouse/stocking job, its more likely to be legit, sure. But for office jobs? Lines like that get a MAJOR side-eye.
Story 4 I feel like if someone like that was hired at a restaurant they and the restaurant would be sued for murder or attempted murder if the person is okay in the end especially if cc cameras are involved
The “You’ll see” makes me think she was definitely planning to poison the person with the allergy to prove it was fake.
@@valenciageode25 people like that make me sick and shouldn't exist
I guess crashing a forklift on a container full of fish and brine is definitely a way to keep you awake
For the phlebotomist job- the army training for lab techs is basically two years of college in six months. We had a few people actually have to leave the room, I think one person puked. Meanwhile, half of the women I went to basic with were fighting over who got to be my partner because my veins are seriously amazing. I was even the practice dummy for blood donation, because at the time I didn't weigh enough to actually donate, but they could simulate it and end the blood collection after like, ten seconds. I actually have a scar because it happened several times, even got a coin for it. I've also drawn my own blood (butterfly needle and tape makes it so easy) but as a kid, I was terrified of getting shots, didn't care about my blood being drawn though.
I watched a few of your videos and when you said "was that shock... anaphylactic" I hit the like button and realized I had not hit the sub yet. Fixed that!
I got a story as well. Was running a register at a pharma/convenience store. My and my co-worker made eye contact and silently said "wow, is that person from corporate?" as this girl walked by. Dressed to the 9's hair done up, makeup looked amazing. Turns out, she got a professional makeup/hair person and the interviewing outfit from one of those state funded programs to help people on welfare find jobs. She was hired on the spot because of her professional presentation. 2 days later, she was fired for smoking some sort of crystal in a tinfoil pipe in the employee bathroom. Perfect example of "don't judge a book by the cover."
Your comment made me realize, i just subbed
That joke made my bones vibrate- I really got to stop saying this stuff, screw what I was saying. WHY ME! WHY SAY THIS WEIRD STUFF!

The ad for beer came up right in the middle of the alcoholic manager story. Too funny!
Stealing from a nonprofit or charity organization has to be one of the most evil petty crimes. I would understand stealing from a giant supermarket if you need food that badly, but come on man…
Not the manager, but another new worker who started at the same company. The woman was claiming to have studied mathematics and IT. She told them in the interview that she'd be speaking frensh, italien, english, romanian and spanish and german (obviously as I live in germany). And she also said that she was having a lot of experience in production planning and a job in supply chain would be no problem for her. I was interviewing at the same time as her and thought "OK, that is kind of cocky to say" and "omg, I hopw I don't look stupid by not showing that kind of selfesteem myself"
When we started working, it took 30 minutes, before the head of production wanted to talk to me. He asked if I minded to do the production planning job instead ot the sales backoffice job I was applying for - the woman turned out to not being able to open Excel, was not understanding a introduction by our frensh head of european production and instead just looked at him dumbfounded before she basically ran out of the building crying. The next day she called in sick due to a nervous breakdown because all of that work was too much for her. They then tried to reach out to her, but she didn't react to anything, so they ended up firing her in order to do so while she was still on probation time.
And in case somebody wonders, the job in production planning was not particularly hard. I did that job for 3 years with little to no prior experience and did well enogh just with some basic frensh and decent to good english and IT user skills.
She can’t speak or understand French and Italian, and you can’t spell French and Italian. Great story though.
Stuck sick in bed today. Thanks for the content, this is my favorite category of stories!
I hope you get better soon!
What a coincidence; me too!
that’s funny I am also sick in bed. I hope we all get better soon
@@NijutheWolf wtf
Hope you feel better soon!!
19:03 It's illegal to withhold a worker's pay for breaking equipment. If they did it maliciously you can fire them and sue them, but you can't refuse to pay them. You hired someone with no training and let them work with no supervision, the resulting damages are the fault of management, not the employee.
You can make an emoyee pay for broken equipment IF you had them sign an agreement stating they accept responsibility prior to handing over control.
Didn't fire her but i worked in a bakery/deli in a grocery store. We had a new girl 20 years old i think start. We asked her to make sandwiches for the deli case. We already had all the stuff for the sandwiches ready on a table for her. She said she couldn't make sandwiches because she had never made or eaten one in her life. I said bulls*** to her. Her excuse was that she was a army brat(her words). My grandpa was military and my dad and his siblings could make sandwiches as soon as they could grab the bread. She didn't last 1 hour.
I used to work at the dump. They hired a guy who meandered around for a few hours, and after someone told him to go clean up the electronics drop off, he's like "oh I can't, I have a bad back". Like bro, that's literally your only responsibility
I've been severely allergic to milk my whole 29 years of life.
Classmates always thought i was lying for special attention.
Little did they know the special attention was getting to eat some "especially" stale cookies my mom gave to the teacher, whenever the kids had a special treat for birthdays.. kids are assholes.
Thanks for making us feel included with the story!
I think the world is turning a lil to soft, howd you get bullied for lactose intolerance 💀💀💀
@@Zapmannnbro stay in school, lactose intolerance and milk allergy are entirely different.
One is gastric issues caused by a problem digesting the milk sugar, lactose, as the body doesn’t produce the enzyme needed to break it down.
The allergy is where the immune system attacks the milk proteins, mistaking them for germs, and damaging the body in the process through swelling, hives, itching, throat closing up, or even anaphylaxis.
Next time you go judge someone, maybe you’ll remember you probably don’t know as much as you think you do.
@@ZapmannnDude. Milk allergy is like peanut allergy. You'll need an epipen and an ambulance.
Not the one who did the firing, in fact, this story is actually about how I got hired! Applied for a job at the front desk of the local art museum, got called the next day, had my interview a day or two later. Manager seemed to like me, but I unfortunately got a call a couple days later saying I was passed over. Sad, but expected. Literally *the next day* I got a call saying "Hey, we might need you to cover a couple days here and there, still interested?" Long story short, the new hire was wanting essentially the *entire* month off immediately after being hired, and I was working just under full time (part-time position) in under a week. Still have the job, and it's *amazing*.
Edit: Evidently, the reason they were hired instead of me in the first place was because they were bilingual (english/spanish). I've never had someone come in who could only speak Spanish. In fact, the closest I've gotten was an older couple (with an English-speaking friend) who could only speak French. Which was the only language that I was and still am in the process of learning.
"Let me go make some coffee."
*SNORT* IM UP.
5:30 quite the understatement. If this newhire were a man, he would get immediately rehired as a full time prisoner in the local jail.
It's way more than disruptive, this is literally a collection of sexual assault stories
I'm not sure about that. We had a male social worker who would get very "over-familiar" with vulnerable people but rather than press charges, they'd just keep shuffling him around.
I think people confuse the fact that men are more likely to go to prison for behaving in this way COMPARED TO WOMEN with the idea that they're likely to go to prison at all. Frankly, it's just setting the bar so low it's practically touching the ground, and they still don't make it that far over it.
The justice system is just really poor about handling this shit in general, is what I'm saying. And whenever people make these comparisons I think they're missing the bigger picture/problem.
@@thecrispymaster I completely get what you mean and I'm also pissed off at the idea of guys like the one you described getting at most a slap on the wrist. The justice system being "poor" is quite the understatement.
My point, though, is that there's an obvious double standard made worse by the fact that the "standard" is so low. Even when men who do this get away with it, we think "this is some nasty and unfair impunity"; when women do it, nobody bats an eye at it. If the justice system actually started chugging harassers behind bars, I'd bet men would be over-represented in both quantity and severity.
Men are just supposed to take it, I guess
Fired a newly graduated trainee chef on day 1 when he dumped chicken blood into a bowl of 30 beaten eggs by being careless. He also didn't know how to fry an egg, nevermind work in a fine dining establishment.
This is the second time I’m watching a video of yours where a woman is overtly intimately harassing, maybe even assaulting, someone and instead of saying they are vile and deserve every horrible thing, you say “they have a problem that needs to be sorted out.” I am a woman and I say this with complete conviction: *hold men and women to the same standards*
"Kindness towards the aggressor is cruelty towards the victim" I can mostly respect the mentality of mercy but it rubbed me very wrong that it was given in that case.
Most belt sanders are completely capable of sanding steel, but you'll want to change your belts out more often, and probably for a finer grit if you've got something super coarse on to hog out wood. One of the few tools that will work on wood and steel. Sparks are normal and harmless. The idea that a seasoned set designer would not know this, and would insist the belt sander needs replacing, is baffling to me. If anything the kid wore out a single sanding belt, $10 at most.
I was just about to say this. I work as a fabricator in a Special FX workshop. Most of the work we do is with steel. As long as the grit is good you can sand almost anything.
I think the main problem with the kid was the attempted murder.
He didn't say he was replacing the whole sander, I was assuming he was replacing the belts out of the paycheck and any other parts he stressed with misuse. But yeah, the attempted murder was way worse.
Story 24, they legit hired Ninja Rick.
Oh really, gonna wait to hear that one 7:16pm

Story #3 - she was trying it on, hoping you would do her work
Story 7.
I was not expecting the Phlebotomist reveal.
I was expecting like.. janitorial work or something where you'd go in like "I though I'd just be hauling trash and sweeping and stuff, not needing to walk into a bathroom and scrub mostly liquified shit off the walls because someone had a mental breakdown on the crapper."
19:00 Knifemaking and bladesmithing in general also uses belt sanders for shaping and profiling the blades both before and after hardening them. Though you do have to make sure it's rated for steel... Just saying that's an easy mistake to make.
The temp angency bait and switch is hilarious.
When I was a cook they hired a new guy. He was to start the next day. Next day he calls the manager and says he will he about 2 hours late.
Manager just said, no thanks. You're fired.
I asked manager why, he said if he couldn't be on time on his first day, he has larger problems.
I think that almost depends on the reason you're late. Like, if your car broke down? Fine. If your mom died? Fine. If you slept in? Not fine. If there was unanticipated traffic on the interstate? Not really fine either.
You shouldn’t be punished for unforeseen traffic reasons. Not your fault. Also if your mother dies, you call and say that instead of saying you’ll be 2 hours late. I wouldn’t be coming in at all for a very long time.
My Jeep power steering pump exploded on the way to my first day of a new job. I mean pulley and shaft on top of the engine exploded. I inspected the carnage, realized it would survive the drive without the serpentine belt and made it to work on time. At lunch, I did measurements and calculations and bought a shorter belt to bypass that pulley so that it had water pump, alternator, etc all turning the right way until I could get a replacement pump.
I lasted there 4 years before my throat gave out manning phones doing technical support.
Good for you, but not everyone is secretly a mechanic.
15 minutes! I worked at a pizza shop and went for cigarettes and came back and my crazy @zz GM hired two 12 year olds! He said, don't worry, I put them in the system as being sixteen years old. I paid them each 20 bucks cash from the till, and said NEVER SPEAK ABOUT THIS EVER! 😮😂
In a restaurant we had a new cook. After he saw that his coworker in the kitchen was female he said : I don’t take orders from women.
He was instantly fired on the spot
Had a guy that called in from jail on his second day of work. He said that he wouldn't be able to make it for a couple of weeks since he was locked up for beating up his girl (which he fully admitted to doing) but if we wouldn't mind holding onto his job for him til he made bail since it wasn't his fault that he couldn't come in. The boss disagreed and told him that he had made a choice that had affected his ability to come in and that we would no longer be needing his services.
Justice for adult store ninja!
i've been watching your channel recently and i think i'm addicted
It's my favorite for binging when I'm cleaning. Great content.
I love this channel. Super great for background noise.
Another daycare story. My job hires a lot of college girls who don't always have experience with younger children. One new girl was placed in Toddlers (1.5- 2 y/o class) on her first day. It was a 3 hour trial shift to see how she was with the kids. She was there maybe 1 hour when she scolded the kids for not cleaning up from coloring fast enough and THREW OUT THEIR DRAWINGS.
Don't know if she did it to punish them or thought it didn't matter bc they were "just scribbling." My boss let her know it wasn't going to work out after her 3 hours were up
They weren't my workers, but it's the shortest in my time. The person was hired to be an unloader(we were looking for someone and sounded like a good fit). His first day, the forklift operator is out. (I was running it when the truck came with my supplies. (New guy helped me unload boxes and sort the rest of the stuff for me) he shakes my hand and says "Its a pleasure to have you as my manager ". I told him I'm not his manager but they should be in soon. (LAter hear a loud swearing and yelling). Comes to my work shop asked me, "Why didn't you say my manager was a female ,I don't want to work for some woman, They can't control their emotions". Than said "Fine can you wire those pumps and find the leak in the hoses later'. (He gets confused lost look). That's what I thought. Find him later in the break room smoking a cigarette watching TV and drinking a Mountain Dew. (He was fired after 6 hours on the job.)
My maintenance manager was training a new hire. Maintenance includes a lot of custodian work at my job. He was showing the new guy how to clean the outside of the drive-thru windows. After he cleaned the first window, he asked the newbie to clean the next one. The newbie told him he wasn't going to do it and if my manager had a problem with it, he would tell a bigger boss that the manager touched him inappropriately. Got fired on the spot.
I was a shift manager at a retail store a few years ago. We had a cashier there for her first shift after being hired. I had let her know that I would be able to let her take her lunch break as soon as I finished what I was working on towards the back and left her alone for a bit. About 15-20 minutes later a customer came to find me and asked to check out and I couldn't find her anywhere in the store. Once I got the line of customers finished I checked the camera, she had just walked out with no explanation, didn't steal anything, just left. I don't think we even had to fire her, pretty sure we couldn't get in touch with her. I didn't have anything to do with hiring an foring though.
First 10 minutes.
I was kitchen manager at a brewery, and the new guy says to me right after the interview and being hired... he can't work Saturdays and Sundays cus he likes to party and will have to call off if I schedule him cus he will still be drunk or too hung over.
And then another time, I had a guy for about 5 hours who didn't know the difference between a red and a yellow onion, and the owner caught him smoking a blunt by the dumpster twice in the 5 hours he was there. We don't even care about pot, its Michigan and there are plenty of cooks who can smoke and still rock their job.
But the only 2 times the owner ever saw this guy, he was behind the dumpster getting stoned.... and he didn't know the red onions are the red onions. 😂
1:50 Story 3 reminds me of Mrs Doubtfire where the lady they're interviewing is just listing all the things she won't do as a housekeeper(basically she intended on doing nothing)
24:10 Last Story: i was worried it was gonna turn out the guy had narcolepsy.
How did the chick in Story 3 *not* know that changing diapers was part of the job? Glad she was fired, though. Hope OP was able to find a more suitable person to replace the idiot.
I’m a middle/high school student with no official job, I think the fastest someone’s ever gotten in trouble is second period on the first day
What makes some people think it's okay to steal stuff on their first day at work? Especially when you're IN FRONT of their boss.
I interviewed someone for an entry level job at the cinema. Nice CV, good references, answered all the questions well. - My manager decided to offer him the job, shook hands, told him to come back the next day to start training. As I opened the door to see him out, we see a colleague coming up the stairs, the new guy says " do you have a lot of racial slurs working here then ?" - Fired on the spot.

@@NijutheWolf Im very similar ngl - sometimes at my own expense. But it’s true what they say; what comes around goes around! I wish you well stranger! Hope we find eachother in these comments again🤣❤️
@@Tayl0r_ The same to you!!
When I worked as bill collector, one lady made it through a few days of training, She constantly asked the managers/trainers about getting paid, when do we get paid, do we get paid for the whole time of training....plus she was very openly discussing her boyfriend's and her volatile relationship and discussed why she didn't have custody of her oldest child. So when one of the directors came in to supervise and watch our progress, she again asked him about payday, in front of the trainers and was let go promptly after that, LOL
Wth is a hanging addict? 5:03 like these alternatives for "bad" words are getting so obscure it's indecipherable
I legit scrolled for ages - well... "ages" lol - to find any comment with an answer... Obviously assault... but that's all the context clues I have ...
@@desireeg5807I think the subtitles might be incorrect and it's supposed to be "banging addict" based on the audio.
I.e. someone addicted to sex.
I was manager in a truck stop kitchen for 3 months before I quit, I was there 2 years. New kid claimed he had restaraunt experience, so I told him how to change the fryers. He used a 5 gallon bucket instead of the catch we have spilling hot fryer oil everywhere and the fryer almost caught fire bc he didn't turn it off. An hour am a half after he clocked in I sent him home
2:55 Eyyy 💀
I literally had to pause it just now I was laughing too hard to listen to the next story 😂😂😂
Not a manager but watched mine fire someone right in tje middle of his interview. He, the interviewee, was insane.
Wait now I want details, what happened
The interviewee just started aggressively telling the boss he was doing things wrong. Our mouths dropped open and he boss was briefly stunned into silence then recovered and very snippily hussled the interviewee nutter out of the workshop, slammed the door on his heels, locked it then came back and gave us a wild-eyed look and asked us if that really just happened. Fortunately, the interviewee nutter was never seen again. It was utterly weird.
Tangentially related but I quit working reception at a doctors office in the first week because the receptionists gossiped about the patients medical histories.
That sounds incredibly illegal.
They never discussed it off the premises so they technically didn’t break the NDA as far as I’m aware. I’m not in the US so HIPPA doesn’t apply.
@@retr0robbin ah, wasn't aware of that part. Still scummy, in my opinion.
thats alright, but yeah still scummy on their part
I have a friend who has been a phlebotomist for a few years at this point, and he hates blood with a passion. I've never entirely understood the fear, as it is, let alone why he still works as a phleb.
I know I had a guy show up to the same orientation as me.... 5 hours late. And he was not there the next day.
My brother got his first job in college. His professor ran some kind of side business that had something to do with computers. The professor’s wife was the manager of the department where my brother worked. He made some error on his first day and the wife was chewing him out. She said, “A kindergartener could have followed my instructions.” My brother replied, “You should have hired one. You could have paid him in lollipops.”
He was BAFFLED that she fired him. His next job was in programming after he graduated and he now makes six figures.
When i was younger i worked for a cleaning company for hospitals.
sheets and drapes would come in. been washed, sanitized and folded and sent back to the hospitals.
all came in big bags that got washed all together to clear blood and fluids, then sorted.
one day working at the sorting line. a new hire was dumped off to me from the manager.
guy looked like he was double my age. and looked like life wasnt being kind to him either.
so i just explained the easy task of figure out whats a sheet and whats a drapes (same color, but clinical drapes are like 1/5th of sheets so you could easily tell which was which by pulling)
sheet in basket A, Draps in basket B.
Easiest job ever
I then proceed to witness him picking up a pile of mixed clothes and just dump it in whatever bin's available.
i come close, explain again that not all that is the same color is the same size and therefore needs to be sorted.
He looks at me and says "yeah, i understood. i just dont care"
Welp. Raised my hands and told my super just that.
Didnt last the hour.
My boss fired a guy on his second day and the guy was sure he wasn't actually fired.
My boss oversees a supervisor who has hired a new plant employee. Apparently the supervisor told this guy he'd be assigned to the one particular job he wanted. Our plant doesn't work that way. Everyone rotates jobs depending on who is working and what needs to be made. Supervisor called in sick on the new guy's second day and my boss (who is also supervisor's boss) was doing supervisor's assignments for the day. New guy did his assignment for about half an hour--he was still training so he was training on the position--then came to my boss and said he didn't like that position and would prefer to do another position, that supervisor promised he would. My boss explained that the job required flexibility and he should go back to what he was doing and that afternoon perhaps he could train on the position he wanted. He said no. Boss said the job requires flexibility so if he couldn't be flexible we didn't need him. Guy said fine, he'd go home and call supervisor tomorrow. Boss said no, unless he could be flexible today we didn't need him period. He said he'd see about that tomorrow after he talked to supervisor. Our plant engineer was dumbfounded and kinda made a face and said to be guy "You realize you're saying that to SUPERVISOR'S boss, right? The guy you're talking to decides not only if you continue to work here, he decides if SUPERVISOR continue to work here." Guy looked surprised but that was his last day.
I’ve worked retail and fast food so there have been plenty of very short stints for new hires, none of which I even remember. But I worked an office job where we hired a new salesman. After a little over a week, I find out that he was fired. Turns out he asked the boss for an advance on his (first) paycheck and when he got it, he never came back to work 😂
When I was a manager in overnight food plant sanitation, fired a guy in 90 minutes.
We got a shit load of newbies everyday, it was temp agency gig where I got hired up to the actual company. Anyway, this guy comes in and doesn’t make any real impression, he was a face in a crowd of new people.
A sign to one of the factory rooms, these rooms are about the size of half a football field. And I move on, well inside an hour I’m looking at my paperwork and realize that room is closed for maintenance for a week, no cleaning is necessary.
Go to assignment to a new room, he flips out and brandishes a knife even holding it to me for a second or so.
Needless to say he fired on the spot and escorted out by police. Technically we had people quit faster than that, but never get fired in less two hours.
The awkward self awareness at 20:12 is hilarious
Wasn't exactly sure if they actually made the connection in their brain or not. But if not, then I think their opinion on the situation is hilariously hypocritical.
Damn. . .and I thought I was a screw up.
19:08 you can actually use belt sanders on steel but to my understanding using them on wood and steel produces thermite.
23:05… amazing boss I ever read/listened of.
I feel bad for the guy in the ninja costume, he was just trying to fit in and make a good impression with his coworkers, only to get fired in less than a week
Most recent one was 3 days ago. Lasted an hour. I'm a Supervisor in Facilities Management. Had agency staff to help cover some jobs. Asked a pair of 2 men to split and work 1 each with the ladies to help with heavy lifting etc. Guy started shouting how I'm sexist and he's gonna punch me in the face. Yeah, he got escorted off site with less than 2 hours total work time. Called the agency and he is no longer employed there either
Anaphylaxis is nothing to joke about. I worked at an outpatient surgical center. One of our anesthesiologists has a severe seafood allergy. We ordered Chinese one day and explained about the allergy and be super careful with his meal. 4 bites in, he starts wheezing and grabbing his throat. Turns out some dufus had a couple pieces of shrimp accidentally mixed in despite our warning. Fortunately we keep a fully stocked emergency cart and the nurses were able to get IV lines in and rapidly pushed some epinephrine and diphenhydramine while waiting for the ambulance. He did okay because he happened to be right where he could get help. Called the restaurant back after and chewed them out and reported them to the state. I think they didn’t believe us when we told them to be careful. They were shocked when we told them they almost killed a doctor. And our cases were delayed because we had to get a replacement anesthesiologist since the CRNAs aren’t allowed to function without the anesthesiologist in the building.
supermarkets must be hell for allergies, there is no sterilization of the work space between customers. Its simply impossible to say wipe belts between every customer because they come back to back. And then there is the self checkouts...
Story 12 made me a little sad. Girl had great intentions but absolutely no clue about doing good at a job.
Story 8. Where are the women like this!? I need one in my life!
My brother works at a casino that is filled with cameras. A new hire joined and 2-1/2 days later the clown decided to steal $ from the register -- in full view of the cameras-- and loaded $20 on a prepaid card thing with a $1 fee. He hid the card in the bathroom where another employee found it and turned it over to security. They checked footage and saw the employee doing it. He was summoned to the security office and then escorted out by tribal police. Kid was still in high school and got himself fired over $41. I suppose he's lucky it was such a small amount that he didn't go to jail.
"would you feel better if you were fired?"
"Yes."
As someone who has worked terrible jobs, that's such a mood 😂
The shortest I witnessed was less than 5 minutes. I was working at a Taco Bell. A new hire showed up smelling of alcohol. In less than 5 minutes he face planted the floor. After the manager checked on him she fired him for working under the influence.
Geeez!
That one about the temp agency CANNOT be legal. Holy shit.
#5 sounds like someone I knew
Never been so happy to see a pov of a dragon breath user and lose 😂😂🎉🎉 ❤
Had someone last 4 hours into their second day before messing with the powered lift that I had, during their walk through the building with me for safety orientation, I had pointed at and said "N E V E R touch this. If you do, I'll have to fire you on the spot." Their English was fine, they just seemed to be unable to process the idea of a safety concern.
# 16 sound like the plot of a lets game it out vid
H induced hypothermia for the naked bathroom starfish
The faster the fire the quicker you get to sit back and relax on unemployment.
Brother is getting obliterated in the background video
for #2, some drugs make you feel like youre overheating, dunno if thats the case for this one but it'd be a reason why that employee decided to undress in the bathroom
Ma’am, this is no longer the 80s we do not do this in the workforce anymore😂😂😂
Who goes swimming at 5am
Just subbed because of the “shock” joke
I know your probably not gonna see this, but you saying have a good day/night every video, truly makes me happy, knowing that there are truly kind out there
Anaphylactic. 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 terrible joke I love it.
A lot of these like story 15 sound like pure alchoholism. When i was bad with it i would have never been able to work cause i would be borderline seizure or stroke by 1pm if i didnt drink.
