THANK YOU! Geez do you have any idea how many videos I watch where they can't even bother to put the damn links in the description?
After about 20 years working, I'll tell young people you should not have any loyalty to any organization, they will turn on you in a second when its convenient and fire/replace you. Also to ensure no slavery, young people dont get married and dont get a girl pregnant, make sure she takes the birth control pill daily in front of you and both wear protection. You will just condemn your new child to increasing poverty and freedomless slavery and these control/money/job trends worsen. Promote this idea in videos and social media to help prevent more young people into this new slavery.
Josh I need to speak with you. This video has changed my life
Normally I like your content, but I don't appreciate you trashing America like every 20 seconds in this video. Countries with socialist welfare systems have plenty of their own problems.
@@adrianmizen5070 I love the USA, and it's not my intention to bash. I only want to make people aware of a system(corporate) that wants you to believe it has your best interests at heart, when it doesn't. It how we are raised to think. Everywhere has its issues.
The extra wild part: It probably would have been WAY cheaper to just pay for the guy's medical stuff and help him than to pay legal goons to stalk him.
At this point, it's about power and control with these frito fuckers.
No, it isn't, the US medical system is the most expensive medical system in the world by a massive margin. They could probably hire the PIs to stalk the family full time for a year for less than it would cost them to actually pay his medical bills.
@@Nukestarmaster depends if you’re factoring in that large payout from the lawsuit
@@ms_cartographer exactly. Ppl who work in corporate all experience this. So many times they can easily do something that will be cheaper
Or make employee happy or increase productivity
BUT
They won’t do it for the reason you mentioned
It’s so sick
They didn't even have to pay for him to go on disability - they could have made this guy into an office administrator and given him the special chair. He says he had a certificate in operations, they could have put him there
everytime an employer says "we are a family" i start laughing inside.
company: "we're a family"
family member: "i think we should do X like so"
company: "lol shut up peasant"
peasant: =(
were family so we can get an extra buck out of you number your worth 0$ to us but you make us so much. TF???????
It's the side of the family that we don't talk about.
Let u ask them for a raise, you'll find out just how much familial bonds u have.
Most families are extremely dysfunctional.
Hot take: America doesn’t actually care about troops or vets.
Yup dat too
If they did they'd abolish the VA Healthcare system and give them access to private Healthcare.
That's not a hot take, it's true. Any vet can tell you this.
not that hot, but yeah
To be fair, there are plenty of Americans that do care about vets but those soldiers are government workers and just like the guy in this video, they're just numbers to the higher ups. A lot of normal, everyday people do appreciate vets but there's only so much they can do and the change needs to come from the top.
When he broke down and teared up over going into his kids piggy bank...I felt that.
We all did
Living the American dream, huh?
That hurts a lot.
Made you watch right? Mission accomplished.
@@AttorneyK the american dream is just about opportunity. Not a golden ticket.
They'll pay a PI to creep on these people for months but won't file an insurance claim to help their employee that got hurt on the job. Welcome to Frito Lay Family.
The guys said too that Frito Lay had faulty equipment like the door and that’s how he got electrocuted in the first place. Maybe trying to see if the family is going to a lawyers office to bust their ass.
@@attache675 The strange thing is most factory type places will shut down equipment if they even have an inkling of a safety violation, much less an actual safety violation.
You've got to hand it to them though. They're out there creating jobs for people who like to make others miserable.
Of course.
Because it will pave the way for the others. They will also try to get compensation if a similar incident happens to them.
@@kylekillgannon Truely a cesspool of human misery, Frito-lay
They almost ruined this dude's life...and his family's life. This is why I'm not nice to managers anymore.
For real. The moment a manager fights back against you needing time off for stuff, especially like this, tell them where they can shove their job. No amount of money is more important than your health
No, they did ruin his life. It's horseshit. Their equipment fucked up and they're liable. Bastards.
@@hotrodjones74 You're right, I was being too easy on them. At least now he has the gofundme money and he can choose to take them to court.
All managers do is screw a persons life up. Ive told some managers off and sone i havebt because i was too desperate to keep a job. Shouldve hust told all of them off and shove their jobs where the sun dont shine
I’m going through this shit right now
Once I started to tell my boss why I was late to work. He cut me off though and said angrily, "There's no good reason for you to have been late. I don't want to hear it." I said, "You're right Boss. I should not have stopped and pulled those kids off of that burning school bus I encountered on the way to work."
@@rustyshacklefordspocketsqu8162 Deserved. What a terrible person to get a teacher fired for losing his book in a fire!
@@rustyshacklefordspocketsqu8162 i dont like to swear, but FUCKING good i am glad i hope that teacher got it that your not better then anyone else and they should have empathy and if they dont then find a new career but that is not for them.
whenever i get work late i just say whatever dude just discount from my hours bank.
My wife and I were having a baby. I was going in to see the heartbeat on the ultrasound. Instead of getting to see that heartbeat, I was met the realization that the child was gone. We couldn't have children. I had to go into work. When my performance was not up to snuff from working 100 hours a week and realizing that my child was gone, I tried to explain to my supervisor what was going on only to be told that "anything I said was an excuse".
Literally, the death of my child was an "excuse".
That was the beginning of the end of my career there. I was gone a short time later.
@@matthewtucker2103I am so sorry for your loss...
Just wanna keep saying, Josh, that you are one of the people who can give a voice to so many of us that can't. Keep doing great work.
The most bitter pill I ever had to swallow, the one I fought so hard to accept in life is what work in real life is like. Hard work doesn't equal promotion, your job doesn't care about you, loyalty means nothing, your job wants the most work while paying you the least they can get away with.
It's not that people can't have a voice, it's that they choose not to out of fear. The truth is that if people allow themselves to work under conditions, they become part of the problem because they normalize the practice. Workers need to unite and hold companies accountable for everything plain and simple.
@@Hunterchuck Most people are just a paycheck or two away from sleeping on the streets. Combine that with a ridiculous amount of anti-union sentiment here and it's no surprise nobody wants to rock the boat on their own.
@@tedsteiner That's why I said workers need to unite. Obviously you can't do anything on your own since it has zero impact. Also, if things continue then it can get worse as business owners love to push the boundaries to see what they can get away with. We could very well get to a 996 schedule that China does.
@@realJimMarshall
Hard work equals pain in the ass. We all know that.
Only the clowns who say "Employers take the risk, so they get the benefit" such as Steven Crowder are the one i have questions right now. I want to know how guys like him defend this s***.
My brother used to work for Frito-Lay. They fired him for no reason 89 days in. He couldn't collect unemployment bc he needed to work there 90 days.
They are definitely a trash company. I believe everything these people are saying.
I interviewed there several years ago for a supervisor roll. I did what I normally do and ask question after question about workers hours, their pay rate, their benefits, all of that.
After I asked all my questions I laughed a little and said I'm ok.
The guy looked shocked af and asked "why".
I told him "because you're wanting to hire me to deal with problems not solve them". He asked what I meant. I told him "no one is going to work those jobs at that pay with that much OT. We'll be understaffed every day. I'll be expected to try and manipulate them into thinking this is a good place to work. I ask all my employers how employees are treated because Im not going to spend all my energy convincing people a bad job is somehow good for them".
@@laverdadbuscador He was shocked bc you saw through his bs. You dodged a bullet.
@@LadyGoddessSephiroth damn skippy.
Exactly one day before 90. Well this is fucked up soooo much
There’s a work around to unemployment: sign on with a temp agency. Work at least one shift. Now you’re laid off and can qualify. 🙏🏽
The company I was with approved a guy for FMLA because he had cancer.
He was getting treatment when the hospital said he didn’t have insurance.
The company dropped him from the insurance policy, because the corporate office is in a different state and decided to revoke/deny the approved the FMLA.
He died before the court date to sue the company. I hope his widow follows through the suit and gets it all paid for and more.
my god. it's funny how people mocked universal healthcare in america for the longest time...but this private capitalistic health insurance system is a goddam horror story.
@@edwardroh89 You really think universal healthcare is the answer?
Why do you think we have this mess in the first place?
We let our government literally shoehorn health insurance in and propped them up so hard that the insurance companies are raking billions a year.
The doctor and patient is no longer connected, but instead is paywalled behind a massive bureaucracy and hospitals have to overcharge because they know insurances will undercut them.
Explain, pray tell... how giving the government any more power will solve the issue that they created?
@@cpK054L because insurance companies are natural end state of having massive financialization of every aspect of our lives.
Tell me how having one payment entity is somehow less efficient than the mess we have now with hundreds of thousands of payment entities and countless middlemen involved in every possible interaction you have with a hospital. Most of the cost you have to deal with is almost entirely payment processing middle men that wouldn't exist with a single payer system with collective bargaining.
It's very, very simple. Reducing middlemen and creating economies of scale from collective bargaining make things cheaper. We see examples of this everywhere in the world. Why do you want something LESS efficient?
@@philosophicalthirstworms6645 Single payer... you mean I have to pay for a healthcare that I most likely would not touch? And I have to pay for someone ELSE's bad decisions like eating a store shelf of Frito-lays?
South Korea has a system like that, guess what, don't be surprised that you have malingerers and social deadweights who waste doctors' time over a sniffle and cough.
And ambulances are no longer respected like in the US.
If it was an actual emergency, guess you'll die on the way.
Maybe if universities stopped scamming medical students and packing them with so much useless classes and burdening them with debt, then most wouldn't sell their souls out just to pay off a debt.
I have trouble trusting doctors nowadays, especially when I'm getting pressured into exams that I know would yield NOTHING.
@@cpK054L sounds better than people dying of cancer because some soulless goon wants to save their boss money.
I was a private investigator for like 3 months I quit because it was eating away at my morals. I literally followed like a 80 year old lady that was said to have worked there for like 30 years
Thanks for quitting ❤️ that’s rough I’m sorry.
It’s sad. My dad had to file a suit with amazon and hide in the house too he had to hire lawyers and yes they will try to get out of everything. Even when clearly injured on the job. These companies have unlimited attorneys and fight tooth and nail not to give you a cent. They are corporations ( corps) dead entities.
What law allows corporations to effectively stalk you like this? They operate like a freaking mafia...
@@DivergentStyles freemasons, Rothschilds u name it
The First Amendment
Unfortunately lots of real fraud happening...that's why they conduct surveillance...
This man's case appears to be genuine...
Hope he came out of it alright...
This is actually illegal in Georgia, I would have called the cops and had them arrested for following me. Covert video recording without two party consent is illegal in Georgia.
The law of “We are rich, so we can do anything we want with zero repercussions.”
What a disgusting company. Should be listed as a black company after this (a term commonly used in Japan for those companies who are abusive, overworking, underpaying, etc.). Can’t believe they have to go through this extent for one employee who has proven more than enough his work ethic. Not only that, but has proven his injury, and yet they feel the need to deny and bully him and his family. My heart breaks for this man and his family 💔
Why the heck they got to use that term for blacklisting?
@@Ndasuunye Because it isn't racist and you're thinking about it from the perspective of an American?
@Ndasuunye just cause it has the word black in it doesn't mean it's referring to black people or it had racist roots. Just like "master bedroom" doesn't have roots in slavery and all the other terms they try to say are rooted in racism, it's all bullshit.
P❤❤0❤
Having worked in a warehouse for 4 years, it is just like this. They treat you like garbage. To all you warehouse people out there, we appreciate everything you do, but please get out of that toxic environment. I am infinitely happier in my full remote cybersecurity position.
Did you lie in the interview? Are you faking it till you make it? lol
@@DirkDeadeye_ No, while I was working in the warehouse I studied in the evenings at a trade school; after applying to probably 300 jobs, I was able to land a position as a NOC engineer. From there I used my free time to study cybersecurity, got a shit job in that, quit, and here I am.
I'll also say I'm better than most people in my field by a longshot kek
@@fastchast007 was a callback to another video the linkedin influencer
Nice one man, happy for you. 👍🏽
Josh you're a hero for exposing all this hyprocrisy..
NEVER drink the company kool-aid. I'm sure PepsiCo has all kinds of company culture/family videos, games and awards. When it comes down to it, you're a number in a spreadsheet. Don't forget that.
I haven't eaten Frito Lay in 2 months because of this, and I won't eat their stuff again.
Tbh I always hated fritos and lays so I haven't or will never touch those chips
thing is it doesnt matter if one or two people stop buying their products because they are so huge. To bring a change it has to be a major impact, basically like a revolution which i dont think we are gonna see in near future. The way human society is headed it doesnt even seem plausible. People dont wanna understand other people's pain and only care when they themselves endure that pain.
@@rachelmatthew6771 true, but I'm still not eating their stuff. I'll call my representatives about it too.
only frito product I eat is staxx because they're cheaper than pringles and I maybe buy 4-6 tubes year...... that's 6 bucks they're not getting from me now!
In addition to just not buying Frito Lay products, if enough people make comments on Frito's social media sites, it can have an impact.
He’s a Veteran. He’s a stand up guy. This video actually brought me to tears. Praying for you man!
Problem is the company has so much money they can afford the best lawyers and probably pay off the judge. It’s the golden rule. He who has the gold makes the rules.
@@DivergentStyles Unfortunately, I have yet to see that happen.
Facts
Companies would rather spend more resources on fighting you on what you should get than just giving you what you should get. Its a total mind fk
“It’s just chips” said the wife with common sense, a company with this much insecurity KNOWS FULL WELL they are outright abusing/neglecting employee well being.
It's so they don't have to set a precedent. If they publicly help once it will then be expected each time. They don't want anyone getting the idea that they can or should ever help their employees.
@@BlackamusJones Except we all know how things SHOULD/COULD be. Yet not enough people fight for it.
Here is a Pepsi challenge, you treat your employees like human beings.
surprised pikachu face:
"He's not a doctor, its chips, it's chips & dip"🤣🤣🤣
I genuinely thought it was a comedy when she said that
Well said Joshua. People in Australia are following America, like it's a good example. When it's clearly not.
We should be following Europe, where they know how to 'work to live'.
My father worked his ass off his whole life and ended up having a mental breakdown.
Part of that mental breakdown was the feeling that he had wasted the best years of his life.
WORK TO LIVE!
These videos are a powerful reminder to always think of one's self as a mercenary, and to always do one's best to have backup plans for one's backup plans. Treat everything about your job as a rental; take from it whatever only benefits you (exposure, networking, skill improvement) and never forget for a second that the organization you're working for right now would gladly do this to you in a heartbeat if it meant saving a buck.
Workers should unite. Fighting like a mercenary is ok but not enough
thats why you have unions, laws, regulations, vote for more tranparency, rights, etc. otherwise, you get stuff like this.
This is so messed up, definitely wont be be buying Frito lay shit again
Look at their website. As of July 29, they posted a newsletter regarding Brandon. Also from the same article ”we understand that applying for work comp might be frustrating...”. They failed to mention that he was not provided with medical coverage and that his family was stalked. So sickening...
Facts, I use to work there and would literally work you death by working 14-15 hours a day.
Another company I am boycotting.
You're still buying from them?
Dont buy shit food.
I've been eating Takis and Clancy's. Fuck Frito Lay.
I got teary eyed at that man's story. It's horrible. Absolutely disgusting how companies treat ' family'. I think you're helping wake people up to the corporate greed, Josh. Keep up the awesome work!
A certain mouse eared company allegedly denied a worker’s medical leave claim just because of a typo on the form. While the poor guys was dying of septic shock in the hospital during surgery, he was fired for not showing up to work.
Heard about this story a month ago and was & still am disgusted. I hope this guy and his family get justice!
This is just one story of this Frito-Lay factory. They have had countless suicides at this factory, the hours they have to work is insane, the number of days they work without a break is insane, so they went on strike. You will be shocked at what they ended up agreeing to, to go back to work. Relative to what they had it was a victory, but I know I wouldn't even think about working there.
Let´s boycott Frito-Lay and Pepsi by the way. Besides screwing with our health, they're treating their people like trash.
So we gotta give those companies the same treatment.
I am boycotting immediately. Another to the list of 2 dozen companies I am avoiding.
@lil tanto If only the nation... The whole world!
The problem is these are common practices and behaviors. There's a deep rot in American capitalism. Trying to fix the latest company to get caught by boycotting their product until they make a token concession is a circle jerk of feel good.
The problem is people aren't learning ethics in B school or even worse somebody's teaching them some rather rotten ethics. Plus there used to be labor laws and corporate regulations and all sorts of things that made America stand out among other nations to become so strong and powerful. It's a shame the anti government crowd threw that all away.
@@PhilLesh69 I’m still boycotting. If enough do it, their profits suffer.
@@PhilLesh69 This years a good time to do it. Have you ever seen this many people quit their low income jobs and actually look at companies with a discerning stare. Everyone and I mean Everyone is watching.
You’re doing God’s work Josh. Thanks for exposing Frito Lay. I already wanted to quit junk food. Now I’m good for sure.
They use tactics called "gang stalking" where if you don't know what's they're doing. You may be labelled mentally ill because of the constantly harassment while not being able to do anything about it because it's "legal".
Something like this would never fly in germany, there is just no way... Thats just insane.
it does work in germany kinda not direktly but it doee
I’ve posted 3 comments and every single one has been deleted. Fragile Germans lol
The German government and corporations are just as evil as the American government and corporations. You are NOT better
... well, second class healthcare and recieving social security that is based on the rate of "hartz4", which is not enough for any privately paid treatments- beeing permanetly injured in germany isnt that nice...especially if you didnt earn much before you got injured you are basically stuck with less than 500/month bucks for the rest of your life, what a perspective.
PI's that observe you arent forbidden either.
In the US there is at least a chance that companies really have to pay out BIG damage payments, in germany companies cant be sued like that.
Germany is a deeply corrupt country.... I mean just look at the political campaigns of the two big parties; they dont even acknowledge the corrution of the opponents because they know this will backfire into a endless cascade off who did what horrible, corrupt thing and in the end nobody of them wants to change this anyways.
There are better worker rights, but i wouldnt be too sure that stuff like that or similar to this cant fly in germany?
@@chasemedsker impotent little man.
When my daughter was murdered, my company gave me 3 months PAID bereavement and did not make me take a day of my PTO. They were going to give me 6 months, but I declined that offer. its the company’s culture that matters! I love my career, my coworkers and the company!
My condolences to you 💞💞
What the actually f***, being stalked by the same company that is responsible for the whole mess? This would never happen in north-europe, strong privacy and health laws. Hope he drains those nasty monsters for every $ he can.
Freaking sad 😭..
I'm armed security guard . I dear them to follow me
Hat of shame is bullying, and the lady who posted the photo seems to be doing D.A.R.V.O.
"deny, attack, and reverse victim and offender".
This is heartbreaking. Workplace bullying and abusive employers is a major issue. Workers rights seems to be barely a thing anymore.
Also, actually affordable quality healthcare that isn't tied to employers, where people won't go into debt should already be a thing in the US. The system is so incredibly broken.
There's also mental abuse that happens in the workplace, but the management is always protected, never the employee. And they're always talking about bullying in the workplace but mental abuse isn't considered bullying??? If I'm being targeted by the manager, I can't say anything? So these managers are allowed to threaten my position, claim that I gave the wrong medication on a day I didn't even work, yell at me over the phone for not knowing what a certain medication was even though I was already talked to about it, let a customer abuse me by yelling at me because I was following company policy but no the customer claimed I thought he was stealing?? No one cares about their employees. We're all just a body. We're nothing and I wish this changed. All the trauma I've been through in the workplace really gives me anxiety and I'm terrified just going back to work.
In Ireland, that Lays story would be just one giant, juicy six figure lawsuit waiting to happened
lol yeah.. i live in Ireland and i agree 100%
i hope they sue frito lay, and get 10 times more of what they paid those stalkers. the hospital part alone was honestly bad enough
You're missing some zeroes there in my opinion.
@@magfal lotta 0s
I used to work for a small firm that practiced Workers Compensation claims and this always happened. I used to tell my clients "it's not you, it's them trying to discredit you." Clients would complain and I would tell them, companies don't care about you, specially multimillion dollar ones. If they did then attorney offices like this one would not exist.. Stay safe out there everyone!
This has to be the saddest thing I’ve seen. Absolute disgust. I never buy Pepsi products, but I’d never consider buying them in the future after this.
Home Depot did the same thing to my wife by taking her to their doctor and said she had soreness in shoulder when reality she had nerve damage and muscle tears. I forget the scientific term, needless to say I had her sue them and after 2 years we won. they called it wacky symptoms
Wow
I got interviewed by AT&T when I was leaving the Army. The interviewer was rude before we got into the meeting. It was really awkward. Later on I found out that they were getting credits from the Bureau of Labor or something like that whenever they interviewed a veteran. A lot of corporations will hire a veteran in the same way they do "diversity hires", and then they become more fodder for the floor until they go away.
vets are treated so disgustingly in the US its a shame. It's sad how many vets are on the streets especially due to ptsd from combat. Hope you doing good bro.
The workplace health and safety law in New Zealand is such that when stuff like that happens here, there are prosecutions of anyone found to be at fault, which can not only include people like supervisors, but may even include the CEO and board of directors. Each individual found to be criminally negligent may be fined up to $750,000, and it is also not legal to insure against such criminal fines.
THANK YOU FAM!! Also, this video also shows proof the systematic barriers that are racist towards certain ethnic communities. Like for real, the dude's question was legit....y not put the guy up as manager or Team Lead? Perfect argument.
So true companies do not want to pay for legit injuries caused by their malfunctioning equipment. As the wife said he did "everything" RIGHT in and "for" his job and country and he gets what??? Where is the humanity?? Where is the empathy?? This is all the way messed up for real.....!!!
evil at its finest
The way this family have been treated should be illegal. Blows my mind that they so far seem to be able to get away with it. If they have faulty equipment then they are culpable. I'm glad that their gofundme seems to have received a bit of an uptick since you made your video.
That doesn't even make sense, lawyers and private detective services cost a lot of money, why not just pay this man instead?
Precident. Basically, if they pay him, they will have to pay other people. And not just the people, but also pay to change faulty/dangerous equipment, implement new policies and changes, their insurance would go up too, etc. So even if they lose the case with him, how many other people are in the same situation? How many are willing to fight for years? How many could they just threaten and shut up? If you are ever trying to fight a company, never fight with humanity, fight with numbers. "If you do not pay me, I will make sure you will lose more money than you would have lost if you just gave me my money."
@@geminisykii Makes sense
As a Canadian with access to universal healthcare, seeing this breaks my heart. Healthcare (and the ability to live) should be a right, not something you have to pay for. Brandon gave his blood, sweat and tears (and his life) twice - to his employer and to his country while serving in the military. Yet here he is. This is so wrong!
@@a.wadderphiltyr1559 So what you're saying, if you're ill and seeking medical attention, and doctors will say, ohh you're not entitled enough to get cured, just go home and take a rest buddy. How do you feel about that? Rather than going to the hospital and get the best cure available for you, right away.
but you do pay for it one way or another. Either outright or through taxation, you do pay. Nobody works for free...
@@moosehead482 Just like you pay for roads, police and fire department.
@@a.wadderphiltyr1559 America is one the few that put profits over people and it's not just healthcare. But it ok to spend billion on war, in which go to the military contractors. And didn't forget your taxes breaks for corporation and rich.
I have an idea... if I show up late to work... don't pay me for the time I wasn't working? That seems fair.
Thank you for sharing this. Painful to bear witness to, but hopefully we can be inspired to fight for a better world
people are getting more evil day by day. There are good people out there but they are forced to change due to surroundings, personal experience, and circumstances. Only few people want to raise voice against injustice. Sad state of humans
My dad worked for Frito Lay for 17 years. One day, he was injured by a piece of machinery and required surgery on his leg.
He was fired, and his medical bills weren't paid. Fuck Frito.
It's crazy how you learn about stories like this in history class about the times when there were no worker's rights, and then when you get older you realize it still happens.
This makes my blood boil. It shows a fundamental lack of trust to the employee. Innocent until proven guilty is fundamental if you ever commit a crime, but it should also be used in private lives too.
He showed enough evidence that he wasn't faking, so they could have left it at that, instead of paying more for surveillance.
Shameful behavior by Frito-Lays. Looks like I am getting chips elsewhere.
Thanks Josh for sharing this information. A reminder that jobs are temporary and to never to put all your energy with an employer.
Correct. The employer will dump you out on the street in a heartbeat, and leave you with no options.
Jesus, watching this just broke my heart
One thing about Brandon: he came from the U.S. Navy. I was in the U.S. Army for almost 9 years. The military takes complete care of you while you are in. The military does actually have a family feel in a way that you will never get outside the military. A lot of veterans who seperate from the military have a hard time adjusting to the cold corporate environment. The corporation doesn't take care of you the way the military does, and that can be a huge adjustment.
In the high-pressure world of mass production, You Are a resource. Never forget it. When it comes to food processing and manufacturing, you will never be anything more than an exploitable asset. If they could get a robot in and work for you, it would be cheaper in the long run because they don't have family, don't call in sick, and if they go down they aren't offline for long.
"If you're on my property and stalking me, I have a 45 with your name on it."

Very sad. I saw this a few weeks ago. Definitely can't put all your faith in a company. It's just a transaction, your skills for pay -- not a family. Always gotta have the multiple streams going or other options. Hopefully they were able to get through this.
Fun fact about NDA's, Noncompetes, Arbitration, etc. These are all threats that do not hold as much power as you think they do.
There's also something called "attorney client privledge" meaning you can tell your attorney everything and anything illegal you have done with no legal consequences. In the case of an NDA, if your attorney deems that the company or corporation has committed a felony and covered it up with an NDA, that NDA is no longer valid nor was did you break it by talking to an attorney.
Unlike small claims court, niether of the parties can simply "drop the charges". A felony requires state/federal investigation, at this point an NDA is an obstruction of justice.
Noncompetes? Normally invalid in most states. In jobs where state licensing and certification is required, companies can't claim that paying for said training validates a noncompete as part of the contract. Because to the state, that employee would never have been able to legally work that position to begin with. Nor can any state/government related certification be used to hold back the employee. Because it would mean a private entity is attempting to limit the ability of a government license which is highly illegal.
So why do these companies bully employees like this even though it can lead to even worse legal consequences? Because they are bullies and have the money. All the money that could have gone to your salary? Sorry but they need it to cover their sometimes illegal activites in saving more money.
I would compare this corporate behavior to the mafia, but atleast the family is an actual family.
I'm happy you are using your platform to share this. EVERYBODY needs to see the Frito Lay video.
Horrible, Inhumane, and just completely heartless. Thank you for sharing this again and bringing a voice to these issues. I don't have much of anything, but what I do have is control over what I buy. We can't continue to support these horrible mega corps.
I got fired from my job for being out of work for too long to see my dad in his final days due to fighting cancer, and the day after the funeral I was terminated. As you can imagine I was livid cursing up a storm in front of my family that I've never done before because I was already hurt from losing my dad but then to add salt to injury and get a fcking phone call saying I'm terminated. My perception of working hard for Corporate America has declined immensely. I no longer will allow these fcking clowns to take advantage of me ever again.
this feels like 100 times more to handle than im handling with my health. and im already extremely frustrated with what i deal with from people and doctors
Yo the Frito Lay thing is crazy, they're totally in the wrong. the employees are innocent!
Oh yeah. This is all perfectly legal.
Not a joke, companies have legal right to do this.
Yeah, as you have legal right to shoot them dead in some states lol.
Many things are wrong with the laws haha
They lobbied for it to be this way too.
@@Azurath100You lobby with weakness by not burning down this country.
I have been in a slaughter house project in India, employeed with worlds best know services provider IT corporate, also know for its work life balance and less stress.
But the project started off with many red flags and soon turned into a nightmare for every working employee and manager as well.
My health is deteriorated working 2 years under that insane amount of stress but got no attention when I tried to reach to my HR regarding my health. Instead there is lot of blame game run on me with all small mistakes I made in my work, although I am just a junior at that time with around 1 year of exp.
Now all team mates started resigning from the company because of that project, and the higher management seems to have no clear vision even from beginning of project.
Guess this is my hard experience of "Don't work hard for your company, work hard for yourselves".
Yeah, don't be working for a big coroporation, you got to do a job that u enjoy or that actually freaking care, or learn a skill or live with friends or a family till u get that career to happen that u enjoy.
This is a PSA for why U still need Unions; & if I were them I would be talking to many Attorneys. Federal Laws always need updating. Thank U for great video. If I were them; I would be calling my Congressperson.
Welp, I'm boycotting pepsi. Who's with me?

This is the perfect video you could've found to show what you've been saying all along. On another note, I hope this guy wins millions. It's one thing if a small company tries to skirt around a little bit(still shitty though), but when a multibillion-dollar company does it, that is just absolutely disgusting. It really goes to show that slavery has never ended, it's just taken a new form.
Screw corporations. Cheat them in any way you can get away with.
Cheating means playing by their rules.
Compare the practice of driving past four hospitals to save money on employee medical bills to another little known but potentially abused practice. Many companies take out life insurance policies on each new employee. Some do it halfway out in the open by offering you a group term policy that you can choose beneficiaries for, maybe, a few hundred thousand dollats, but in that case they probably also took out a shadow policy with themselves as the beneficiary and this one is for half a million or more dollars.
WTFFFFFF🤯

*What Is Corporate Ownership of Life Insurance (COLI)?*
Corporate ownership of life insurance (COLI), or corporate-owned life insurance, refers to insurance policies taken out by companies on their employees, typically senior-level executives. The company is responsible for making the premium payments, and if the person dies, the company, not the insured person's family or other heirs, receives the death benefit. Such policies came to be called "dead peasant insurance" after some companies purchased life insurance on low-level workers without their knowledge.
Why on Earth would a company partner with a hospital whose location is on the other side of town from the company? Does insurance have proximity to hospital rates?
I imagine so. If you die on the way, they don't have to pay!
God this is heart breaking

This happened to my mom after she was injured at her job at a casino. They let her go and then had someone follow her for weeks to show she didn't get injured. They failed and she ended up getting some money and they had a position she could've done instead and they didnt hire her for that so she got money for that also. Companies are terrible
It is interesting for me that in US you train all those soldiers to respect orders, be obedient, etc. and then you just release them for the corporate world for grabs.
Videos like this make us aware that you need to be on your own always. Never believe in anything what corporates tell. Always up-skill your self at all times. Only knowledge and your humble nature will save you and no one can take these qualities from you. I also faced this issue but not at this level but luckily I was able to get through it.
See this... This makes me glad I'm European.
An employee died at work because of a heart attack. Next day, I heard the manager talking, "I don't have the time to help the mother make the claims".
Russian stupid post translation by the way
"In Alpion, the employee who got late for work, is wearing this wig all day.
Meet Anya. Not only she is able to bring coworkers a great mood, but also to be a wonderful colleague to another account manager. Would you like to be Anya's colleague? Let us know." Domain is Kazakhstan btw. But it doesn't take cringe and humiliation away.
Good to see a Russian post being roasted by Josh 😁
@@olganova3058 da, eto pravda 😁
I would make sure some head lice "found" their way into that wig.
Fortunately I live in the civilized world where it is illegal to fire someone for being sick. If an HR person says "we fire you because you were sick for 3 weeks", that HR person can go to jail and the company gets to pay until - if ever that happens - I get better.
I’m not surprised that Frito-Lay continues to have trash ideas and policies. Does anyone remember their original slogan/character for Fritos?
No. What wa s it?
Thank you Joshua for sharing this, this is the perfect example of why companies (especially in corporate America) aren't really your family. It's just grim!
I've seen this video of the injured Frito-Lay employee and his family elsewhere. The couple did a great job at showing their situation and how that huge, incredibly rich company treated him and his family without compassion. Why doesn't the US have labor or other applicable laws that prevent the delay of optimal medical care just because it's more economical to follow some contract with select medical providers? As if that wasn't bad enough, Frito-Lay and its third party contractors have little regard for him and his family and have actively worked to worsen the situation. He's suffering from his injuries and the entire family is suffering emotionally.
Once a company gets to that level of scumbaggery the CEO should be forced to resign. Dude probably has a few years left now. I would make it my lifes work to make sure the top execs are broke any way possible.
I think that punctuality in general situations is silly.
If you're dealing with meetings or time sensitive issues then fine, punctuality is perfectly reasonable, but in general there's no real point to it
If you are injured at work you are not required to use your company’s Work Comp provider. Work Comp only cares about the company’s interest not yours. If possible get seen by your own provider and get FMLA. Also find a Work Comp Attorney to protect your interests and deal with the drama. I had a friend become permanently disabled because her work comp forced her into physical therapy when she actually needed surgery. She ended up needing to have her foot amputated.
3:30 Everyone got mad at me once because I was late to a meeting, I always leave 6am to get there for 9am, but once traffic was so bad I got there at 1pm. I had to tell them that a truck full of chickens flipped over and there was one lane of traffic, and everyone was slow because of chickens running on the highway. They didn't believe me, so I mass emailed them the online article with it.
It's videos you put up like this that I wonder what sort of people believe you are a heartless person. you're doing great work, fighting for the average worker.
I'm never eating LAYS again. Really sad about what's going on with this guy.
I’m literally never purchasing their products again, ever.
Until our government(s) cease to be ran by corporations, we've got no shot at any kind of ethical accountability on a larger scale. Collectively, we've got power as consumers to stop putting money in the pockets of scumbags. Make sure you add Pepsi / Frito-Lay to that very long list if you haven't already. This story is appalling. Looking forward to hearing about the inevitable massive damages settlement.
Just when I think I've seen it all. JFC, corporations are evil.
Good luck getting a good lawyer. Good lawyers are not free.
They are for cases like this if you can find them. They will take their cut from a successful settlement.
Wow, Josh, you're becoming some what of an American hero using your platform to voice against corporate bullies.
We have flexible working hours at our company. We can come in till 9, and even if we arrive later, it's not a big deal as long as we reach our 40 hours a week.
Thata good but arbitrarily having to reach 40 hours worked is another idea that needs to go.
