I had a teacher incorrectly fail me on a written test. Two or three students aced the test, and the entire rest of the class failed. The teacher refused to talk to me about the grade and I ran out of his class in tears. My friend (who passed the test) told the teacher that I had the same answers that she had, yet I had failed. The teacher came to my next class and interrupted the class to apologize to me IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE CLASS.
@@mikkihesson3509 Your hero Dr. Mike was on a maskless yacht party with instathots at the height of the pandemic. My friend died because your friends didn't feel like wearing masks, he was 35. I bet you totally care about that as much as you care about picking on somebody about their grades, Kar~ I mean Mikki
I can see other sequels. “I can’t stand teaching blind children because they can’t see the board!” Or “I can’t stand mute children, because they won’t answer me!”
Well, she did do it to herself, she should have just kept her mouth shut. I loved it when her face turned white though when OP said her ID was invalid.....
I had someone tell me in a job interview that they would be hiring me but needed to get the hearing aids fixed so I wouldn’t have to ask customers to repeat themselves. I explained that that wasn’t how hearing/hearing aids work and told them to move on to their next applicant. 😂 (I also wrote to their hiring team anonymously and let them know he was a risk to them with any ADA employees under him.)
It was in the 1980s and I would get harassed like that. One time, an engineer - not my manager - asked me to type a letter. I told him I didn't type while touch typing in some programming code I was working on. My program, my code. He got all huffy and went to my supervisor, then went off to my manager. I said, I thought I was hired to do programming, not typing letters. Manager looked at me, then told the engineer to take it to the department secretary in another building. thanks, Dennis.
Story 3: any student that has some kind of a medical ... hindrance? should be taken care of and made sure that there is no situations that could be happening. A good teacher will take care to make sure they have everything they need when they need it.
I am a public school teacher in the USA. If a student has any health issues that could affect their learning, a group of educational professionals will meet to determine the best accommodations for that student to help them access the material that their classmates are learning. Teachers are required by law to follow these accommodations.
Last year, I was out with my family, including my daughter. She's 10 at the time. We are talking about the stuff in my wallet and I'm showing her all my documents and what they mean. When she sees my ID, she says "daddy, this is expired!". I look at her and say "no, honey, you're looking at the date this was issued. The expiration date is right here, and... Oh... It IS expired..."
It absolutely stuns me that the music teacher Karen either a) was aware of OP's hearing impairment and decided to cruelly ignore his normal needs, b) was unaware of OP's hearing and decided he was a "troublemaker," and c) is/was still teaching in that school after the incident. Ignorant people always seem to amplify their ignorance the more obvious the situation, as with OP's case. Cheers....
unfortunately it's often hard to fire teachers. I had a teacher that always failed me on everything, I mean everything. Tests, homework, in-class work, etc. I have no idea why she hated me so much. I never talked, always rose my hand, etc. At the end of each six-week period, I would have a PTA meeting that would include my disabilities worker lady. Every single time, the teacher would be forced to give me the proper grade, which would always end up being from 90 to 100's. She did this the entire year. She wasn't fired. Four or six years later my middle brother had her, she did the exact same thing to him. Then a few years after him, our youngest brother had her. Yup, did it to him too. She was never fired. She did this is a lot of other students too. She was awful. I just hope that she's suffering the worse pain imaginable for the rest of her miserable life. Another teacher, I never had him, in our school (in the late 90's / early 2000's) was a bit crazy. He never harmed students or went "crazy" but he would often talk to his coffee mug, talk to a filing cabinet and other stuff. He was a great teacher from what I hear. He would start lecturing and then begin mumbling something else that turned into a completely different subject, like aliens or dinosaurs, just random things. Students liked him. iirc he was a Vietnam vet, so probably a bit of ptsd going on.
Not me!! I’m Legally Blind & the Hell we went through due to “Teachers” & the “Principal” due to “She can read, so she can see, so what’s the issue!?!” Just because I could read, doesn’t mean I can see everything else around me. I have a limited field of vision, but what I do see, is fine. Think we could get that into them though? I still have Panic Attacks thanks to those years. Of course none were fired. Sadly, not much has changed. 🎶😔
Back when I was a self-employed contract programmer, my then GF bought something from a catalogue - one of those that allows you to do three payments - she didn't, she paid the bill. This seems to have completely short circuited their system. She then got a bill for £0.00 - a month later another, reminder, bill for £0.00 and, finally, a DEMAND FOR PAYMENT (all caps) with threats that, if she didn't pay the outstanding £0.00 they'd take her to court - this was when she first showed it to me (she being somewhat panicked by the language). Of course I knew what had happened - some coder had decided to check for non-zero balance before rounding - and the £0.005 was non-zero and had been rounded to zero. Thing is, being contract, I had my own limited company - and my GF did the business banking on a Monday morning - so I told her just to take it to the bank and pay it - and instruct the teller that she wanted to pay in cash. The teller said "oh yes, right-O", stamped the bill and handed the receipt back to my GF. "Will that work?" the GF asked, "oh yes" the teller replied "and your partner is being especially evil about it because, as it's a cash payment, it's gone through as a Giro Credit - which has an £8.00 fee!"
I wish the op when she was walking away with the laptop and he started screaming had turned around and said oh what's wrong HONEY?are YOU having YOUR period NOW? And then just kept walking out like a boss that would have been sweet as hell LOL
Or something along the lines of, "Not that it's any of your damned business, but yes... so I'll be irritable for the next few days. What's *your* excuse for being a raging a$$hole 24/7/365?"
Story #3 is a repeat. For #4 a woman had paid off her Sears charge card. The next month she got a bill for $0.00 so she ignored it. The following month she received another bill for $0.00. She ignored that one as well. The next month she received a letter demanding payment or the attorneys would get involved. She wrote a check for $0.00 and never heard from them again. Any wonder why Sears went down the tubes?
Story 1, it's no surprise that a Karen gets angry she has to abide by the law as well. Karens think they can order others to follow the law and their above it. Story 3, there are teachers that need to get over themselves. Teachers like her don't realize that being a butt to disabled students can get them in big trouble. Especially in this case she got herself humiliated it also didn't help that she refused to admit that she was wrong and kept trying to insist that op was a bad kid.
In Germany it is. At least the „cheap“ part. It is also vastly more fun than having tinitus all day long. Had something like that happen to me as well, just in sports and the batteries were in the changing room.I just looked at the teacher for a hot second until saying: if I am not allowed to poke your eyes out, you are not allowed to keep me from getting fresh batteries. Never going to forget that face, so damn pissed. Never heard any consequences. Yes I was a downright asshole if pushed a little, but I was only mirroring the way they spoke with me. Play dumb games, win dumb prizes.
Story 1 - Could have made it Pro by waiting for her to leave, finding what car she was driving and dropping a dime to the police telling them there is someone driving on an expired license.
Me listening to Story1: “Hm, this story sounds familiar. Accidental repeat?” Malicious compliance twist: “Nope. That’s a different punchline than the last time.” And, yes, I’ve forgotten to renew mine a couple times as well. Which sucks because it means I have to pay a late fee to renew at that point.
Where I live you used to get 3 months grace. Since mine expires in Dec, when there are more expenses, I didn't worry. I got pulled over & told you are expired. Ya but what about the grace? He says the fine doesn't start till then, but Your license Is Expired. I didn't get a ticket & went straight to the BMV! Never happened again
I had a bit.. of a 4th grade teacher. I had to puke so I raised my hand to go to the restroom. She looked directly at me and put her head down completely ignoring me. So, I puked.
As a retired teacher, unfortunately, I believe the teacher knew she was ignoring the students and perversely enjoyed seeing him fail. There are teachers who allow bad chemistry to get in the way of good teaching. This is one reason that tenure needs to be revisited for many educators.
Yeah I hate that sort of teacher I was doing a GCSE IT course and for one of the coursework based modules gave the class minimal information on the assessment objectives (if this was directions her response would be equivalent to *wrist circling* “it’s over in that direction”) and for what she did tell us we had to practically teach ourselves unless you where one of her favourites they got step by step help, all information and feedback. she dragged quite a few people’s end of course grades down by 1 to 2 letters when the course ended. The year after we had her we never saw her again.
Come-on! A student with his hand up, has it up for a reason. The most pleasant of which is he may be about to hurl. Won't that be fun to have around until it can be cleaned up? That could take anywhere from 10 minutes to 4 hours.
My son is deaf in one ear. First teacher conference she was like, your son doesn’t seem to pay attention sometimes. I was like, did you see his 504 plan? He probably just didn’t hear you.
The music teacher one reminded me of my music teacher from middle school. She assumed no one would believe a student over her, so since she was very uptight about how she expected the students to sing, she started threatening to shoot kids that didn't sing the way she wanted to. If only one kid was the target she may have gotten away with it, but she did it to multiple students per class, per grade. My parents got evidence and got her fired, then the principal expelled our entire family since he knew my parents had evidence of him physically assaulting students. After all, if we did anything afterwards he could claim fabrication of evidence of disgruntled parents. They just gave the evidence to other parents.
The B from the restaurant was manifesting the burn to her beak by speaking it into existence when she demanded the molten lava gravy at the order window! So glad the restaurant manager was there supporting her employees.
It has been a couple of decades since this happened, and both my parents are dead now (god riddance) but before I cut contact with them, they convinced my husband at the time, to let them move in, just for a week or two, because they put in their 30 day notice to vacate their rental before they had found another place to move. Typically, since I needed to cook for my own kids, I was the one who primarily did the cooking. My kids, husband, and myself ate first, and my parents were welcome to whatever was left over. On the times when my mom made food for herself and my dad, my dad would, unfailingly, every, single time she cooked for him, would take a bite, burn is mouth and then berate my mom for serving him food that burned him. I was pregnant with my forth child during this, and the stress I felt from his yelling and swearing got to be too much for me. So one evening, after my mom had made my dad food, he took a bite, burned his mouth, and tarted screaming at my mom again for the food being too hot. I asked him, "What did you expect, cold food?" He responds, "No, but I shouldn't have to get burned every time I eat something!" I countered, "Perhaps you should wait for I to cool down before taking a bite. Even my children know to do that." His response to that, "Well, maybe your mom shouldn't cook the food at suck a high temperature!" I chuckled at how ridiculous that was, and said, "That's not how cooking works! If you don't cook food at the proper temperature, it doesn't kill bacteria, now does it properly cook the food!" He harumphed at that. He never shouted about food being too hot again, though. P.S. it took two years before they finally moved out, but only because my own family was threatened with eviction by our landlord because we had unauthorized people living there. It only took them a week to find a place, so I think they just planned on being squatters indefinitely.
this saddens me, i also have hearing loss from childhood, and my music teachers(all my teachers really) went out of there way to make sure i could understand what we were doing, and to usually match me in tasks with good kids who could help me.
Hang in there. At least you know the joy of music. Everytime I listen to music I just realize more how much is missing. (Hearing loss from 5yo until completly deaf with 18)
For the ID story, I work retail... I have seen plenty of expired IDs and normally I get told " Oh.. wait what?... " then they look at it and see I wasn't lying " Oh no, I'm sorry" I will then say " it's okay, just make sure to get it fixed for next time " and if it's the first time they've done this I run it anyway. Then there's the one's who just go " It shows I'm old enough!!! You can't tell me I can't have those cigarettes!! " and I just go " Sorry, it's the law and I ain't paying that fine of over 1000 bucks " and they keep going in circles of the same thing.
Story 1: I work for a agency that needs to look at government ID when people are setting up accounts on government websites. It's very rare that we get people with expired ID, but it's generally a real sh*t show when it does happen. Here's someone who is trying to log on to an account, usually on a deadline, and not only can they not do that since we can't verify their identity, but they've just discovered that they have bigger problems. Can't drive with an expired license; can't travel with an expired passport; difficulties with some medical procedures with expired medical card; etc. The way to think about it is that when gov't issued ID expires it is not only no longer valid, but should be destroyed. Legally, presenting expired ID is the same as presenting fake ID.
Story 3: If I may, Ms. L's face should have turned white, not red because she realized her mistake. Also, she should have been reprimanded for ignoring OP during Class.
I don’t think you can know exactly what someone is thinking or what color their face would turn in a given situation. My face does not turn white when I’m embarrassed.
I had an aunt that would come to a restaurant I worked at. It never failed, she would complain about her coffee not being hot. I would tell her if she didn't put so much cream in it it would probably be hot. I told her nobody else ever complained about being served cold coffee. She would insist on having the coffee warmed up in the microwave. So I did. Lol. She would of course grab another creamer. As soon as she dumped it in the cup, lol, of course it overflowed from the cold meeting the hot. Of course she then complained about it being too hot. I told her to blow on it. Lol. She was a Karen even then long before the word meant anything more than a name.
I had some pretty awful teachers in school, too. Ones who didn't understand that I have ADD, or didn't care. They seemed to delight in tormenting me almost as much as the other kids did. 😢 That teacher reminds me of them. There was even one who was like Dolores Umbridge from the Harry Potter series. I hated her!
So yes I have forgotten to renew my license before I went 3 months without renewing it and never knew I had to renew it so I was changing wallets when I realized I was driving on an expired license so I had my mother drive me to the DMV to get it renewed as we didn't have internet at the time.
Expired IDs are the worst. I worked at a drug store that sold all sorts of stuff you needed ID for. Alcohol, birth control, money orders, money transfers, lottery sales and redemption, the works. I had some beautiful malicious compliance stories over the years.
Deaf music student: A musical interpretation piece that’s a minute of full silence is actually pretty inspiring. Welcome to his world, people. Listen carefully and experience the world the way he experiences it. Personally, when I’m working I wear a noise cancelling headset. Sometimes I’m playing instrumental music, and sometimes I’m just blocking out distractions and listening to silence. There is a lot of beauty in silence.
My Drivers License expired in the middle of the lock down, and I tried to renew it on their website, but the damn thing said I had to go in person to renew it. I went to the DMV only to find the place was closed to the public. I then went home, and call them only to be placed on hold for close to 3 freaking hours. Finally someone answered, and I told them the situation only for them to tell me I had to come in person.
I live in Arizona, our licenses do not expire until we are 65 years old. I have been accused of a fake ID more than a few times. When the manager is called I had googled the rules for our DLs or IDs and it winds up in a good laugh and the employee having that "OH SHIT' kind of look LMAO
The last story. The restaurant followed the customer's instructions, made in front of witnesses, to the letter regarding the gravy. In a litigious society, that's all that's needed to cover the restaurant, legally speaking.
I’ve listened to you read so many of these stories over the past few years, but I have to say that the movie theater incident was one of the most delightful examples of instant Karma I’ve ever heard! SIT DOWN, KAREN!😂🍿🥤🤣Bravo! Thanks for sharing, Fluff!
My brother once got a dividend payment from a pension scheme he had entered into in one of his old jobs. It arrived via Royal Mail and my mother framed it and put it on the wall ! The cheque was for 1p ! This was in the early 1980’s.
story 1 - In my country if you look under 25 , your ID can be requested by the Bar Tender. I just renewed by Drivers license but the card will take 3 weeks to be produced and mailed to me. So technically it is now an expired card but I have a paper license I can show police if driving.
Sadly, if OP hadn't made the 1 cent overpayment, etc, it sounds like no one would have taken this situation seriously and fix the mistake. If it was never fixed, over the years, that 2 cents would accrue to a large amount, causing OP serious trouble, through a collection agency. OP spent a lot of time, in his first and only attempt, to shut that sh1t down. Good goi g OP!
As for the OP that had to pay a 2-cent move out fee, if this happened in the United States I don’t think that apartment management office can legally refuse to accept his pennies.
The invalid ID - that's a well played game of "UNO reverse"... I had my ID re-done last year but not because it was expired. I had a small edge broken off and in Germany many people told me that it's no longer valid. So I got to have it re-done. When I once took a train to Salzburg, Austria (where I live now) on the way back the federal police of Germany walked trough the train, doing ID checks (and maybe checks for illegal immigrants) - as soon as I handed my ID, I also tried to hand the officer a letter stating the new ID is already ordered and it takes up to 6 weeks to be made. This officer said "your ID is broken, this couldn't be accepted" my response as his 3 colleagues are coming closer? "thats why I tried to hand you this here. I already ordered a new ID card but it's still in production..." I also scanned the QR code on the letter, logged in on the check page and showed him the "production in progress" shown on screen. He sure looked defeated and just said "sorry" - maybe he's the reason for a good laugh at the station and well, he's been pretty new to the force... Don't get me wrong here, he's done his job well but he couldn't get it, why I tried to hand him the letter showing the ID in production
The story with the teacher. I've had one like that in 6th grade. Firstly I'm going to be straight and honest with y'all. I'm autistic with adhd add and aspergers. The teacher in question was my 6th grade history teacher and he and I went at it twice and the first time I balled up my glasses into a ball and to this day I still don't know how I did it to begin with. Oh and the lenses were still intact by the way. and the second time I nearly threw a book at his head
Here is my ID issue, I was in my middle 40's and went to buy booze and handed over my ID very happily and to my surprise I was denied my purchase because my ID was an ID not a driver's license! I don't and never have, and was a tad sad but oh well! Off to a different liquid store I went! Problem solved!😁👍🤷♀️
I think the moment the theater guy saw that Karen’s ID was expired was the moment she was served good old-fashioned karma for acting like she has some kind of authority over people she don’t even know. Also, in Story 2, I would’ve snapped and ripped them all a new one and said, “is this the medieval times? Because that’s exactly how you all are acting. While I’m at it, why don’t I get you some wine and mutton?”
Story 3: they slightly disrespected the teacher by not doing the assignment. The music teacher wanted a peice of music inspired by silence. I imagine the sound of wind blowing at the pace of a heartbeat, you have the benefit of knowing how to hear sometimes. Additionally add some rhythmic swaying to your silence so it's more obvious this IS your performance... it's certainly not your fault that the inspiration music file for you was so different than everyone else but that just means your art will be unique
Story 1: Some people are well aware when their ID is expired, and still think it shouldn't matter. I work in retail, and I have to be ready for that all the time. I had one woman who wanted to do a "return" for a sundress that was clearly too small for her, but she had no receipt, so we had to get information off her ID. The only one she presents expired DECADES ago; she no longer looks like her picture, and I'm pretty sure the format is older than I am. And of course, she thought this was enough, and that she knew an employee who she knew personally would vouch for her. Our manager permitted it, but only for store credit, as it was clear to everyone that she never actually purchased that dress to begin with. Some people.
@Old Man Jim The stupid real ID laws can make it hard to renew your license. Mine was expired for 2 years because I lost my birth certificate, and I live in my car, so I couldn't prove my residential address since I don't have one. Eventually, my sister helped me get a new birth certificate, and I found out that they now allow you to get real ID without an address if you sign something saying you're homeless. I did have to retake the driving test because my license was expired for over a year. I barely managed to pass the vision test, so that could have been another obstacle.
I actually have a funny story about a teacher myself. So there’s this teacher I don’t remember his initials so we shall call him Mr M. So one time we had Mr M as a substitute because our normal teacher was away, now Mr M was a bit of a smart ass and pretty rude to us students. So a couple days prior we had a test and I didn’t really think about it but when we had Mr M he asked us to do work on paper and hand it in even if we already have done it (so we would have to re-write) which I thought was stupid. Anyway when he was handing out the pieces of paper he completely missed the table me and my friends were on so of course we didn’t say anything knowing we didn’t have to do work. When the class ended he asked everyone to hand in the piece of paper and our table was last, when he got to ask he asked for the paper, I replied with “sir, you didn’t give us the paper to write on plus you didn’t even explain what we were meant to be doing.” Mr M replied with “well why didn’t you come up and ask for a paper?” My friend next to me interrupted with “dude, why on earth would we ask to do work when we know we could get away with not doing any.” He looked at us with anger and the bell rang, we grabbed our stuff and walked out and I don’t know what he did after that. 😊
Had to share this.... The story about the expired ID? It got me thinking, "I wonder when my ID expires?" Nine days from now! 🤣🤣🤣 Thank you Fluff for the story! You just saved my butt!
We don't have specific ID cards here, Québec, Canada. What we use for ID before we have (or if we can't have) a driver's license is our government issued medical card (We have universal health care.), it's valid for 8 years and we get the paperwork in the mail to renew it a few months before they expire. And for the driver's licence, we get the paperwork in the mail too to renew it, with the bill to renew it, for our birthday month.
Expired ID story: With the legal drinking age being 18, this is obviously not the US. But the part about expired ID's applies here as well. Justice was served even if the wine wasn't. I'm a retired truck driver. Here, you make damn sure your CDL is up to date as there are very large fines for driving with it (and/or your DOT medical card) being expired. Most good trucking companies will make sure you get home on time to renew it as they have the license in their files and they can be fined as well if it expires. Deaf student story: I have heard about cochlear implants from a person who had them. He said that given the way they work, listening to music that he didn't already know was not really an option because of the way they worked. They simply did not have the complexity to provide the full effect of the music and he would miss much of it. If it was something he knew before going deaf, his memory filled in the blanks. Under/over payment story: I like what OP did there. Many years back I lived in a medium sized city that collected a "city income tax". It wasn't that much (1%) but it was a pain as most companies either didn't withhold for it or didn't withhold enough to cover it come tax time. The city revenue department had a policy that city taxpayers didn't have to pay if their taxes were under X amount (a few dollars) as it would cost them more to process it and the amount would be held over and added to taxes due the following year. Well, one year I owed about $2, under the amount required to pay that year. I paid it anyway, by check, knowing it would cost them more to process it and damned if I was going to let them dun me even more the following year. And yes, they would add interest on the amount. Hot gravy story: I'm sure that it being a small town with customers witnessing the whole thing, news of what happened spread pretty fast and most people probably thought she got what she richly deserved. She was almost certainly too embarrassed to try to take legal action with so many witnesses present.
I would have watched at the end of the movie to see if Karen got in a car and drove home. If so a call to 911 might be in order to report a woman driving without a valid license. Laws are laws after all, lol!
I love it when people claim all the teacher forced me to stay in the class they can't force you it's called stand up and walk out and if they tell you to sit down tell him to go f*** off I did it a million and a half times never once gotten in trouble was mostly bathroom
I once got detention because a coach covering another teacher's class and turning it into a study period went on a power trip and refused to let me or anybody else leave to go to the bathroom. I left anyways. I also got lines for swearing when my bookbag crushed my foot
@@zen4realfightman426 No he did not. Both coaches who did that shit to me got away with it. It wasn't even the F bomb I dropped in pain. It was "shit". In high school
@@NekoYuki yeah sounds about right as I said schools are corrupt as hell I'm guessing partially the only reason why I never got in trouble because I was basically a god at my school I was in leagues with the head principal essentially immune to punishment aside from like something extreme
The story on the apartment bill reminded me about a bill from my dentist. I never paid my dental office bill until after my dental insurance paid first (I had a family of 6 at the time and was sure where my copay standing was with the insurance company. ) So I received a bill from the dental office for a dollar. I thin k this is stupid on their part, postage, costom stationery , and office time yo send this bill cost more than the amount billed. So I ignored paying it. Next month, the same billing process took place. The third month, the same thing happened, but with a note that they would send the bill to collections. As with having a large family, someone was in need of dental care. So when I was at the dentist's office, I handed the account's payable clerk a check for a dollar and made the statement I think I won, and she just looked at me like what are you talking about. From that point on, I never received a bill for less than $10. From than on bill that was for less than that amount, it was noted as being written off as paid in full
Many years ago, I worked at a casino in Southern Indiana. Casino employees are required to wear their badge on their chest. So after 9 years, you get in the habit of just pointing to the badge when someone asked you for ID or they would simply see it and not bother to ask as you had to be 21 to work there. I am at home with my roommate and we are in a thunder storm. My roommate is standing in the kitchen and can see the driveway while I am laying on the couch. There is a loud crash outside and my friend turns around and says, "Do you want the good news or the bad news first? Now on the property were 2 Bartley Pear trees. I hate these damn trees because they grow fast and dies faster by spilitting out. Now I had on 3 previous occasions cut up this tree where pieces had fallen and if course these trees were on either side of the driveway. So I say good news please. "Your know those trees you hate? They are both gone now. Bad news they teach fell across the sang driveway so our cats are trapped in the garage. We manage to get his vehicle out to go to Home Depot to rent a chainsaw. So I go to rent it and the guy says,"Do you realize your driver's license expired 3 years ago? 🤦♀️. What is even funnier is that I had gotten a speeding ticket a month before. 😜😂
2 cents story reminds me of the time I closed a checking account. A few weeks later I received a bank statement with a balance of 1 cent. I had earned 1 penny in interest. So I returned to the bank and closed the account again. The teller gave me a penny.
I worked for a company that CLEARLY stated "cancel your subscription to this newspaper a week before the already paid period ends". You cannot miss it during the sign-up process. It's not even fine print, it is very clear. People were trying to be smug and say "well we got this bill like two weeks ago into the new period and we refuse to pay it!", while they received the bill via e-mail the same day of the billing. The satisfaction, I got to tell them: "well, that is your choice. I can bill you for one month, since it is in our terms of service, which you agreed to. If you still refuse to pay, things will escalate and the firm responsible of covering of claims will contact you." Some people refused as far as that out of spite. The sum will be claimed whether they want it or not. If you are that illiterate to big letters in terms and conditions it's your own fault.
At an old job many years ago, I would stop at McDonald's for my morning Hot Chocolate before each shift. One morning I had to get fuel on the way to work so I thought Id save some time and get my Hot chocolate at the fuel station. The plastic lid burnt my lip before I even got to taste the drink. Half hour drive to work and it was still too hot so I put it in the fridge for 10 minutes before I could finally drink it. Ill never understand people that want their drinks this hot.
In the '90s, I worked as a cashier for McDonald's in Florida, taking customer food orders. Most often, the public was nice, and they did not cause any problems. One afternoon though, a woman came into the restaurant and wanted a Filet O'Fish meal and an extra dollop of sauce. When the other cashier received a $10 bill, this woman complained the change was less than she thought it should be. I swear this person could not even do basic math. I explained to her that since the final amount was over $5, the change would be less than $3 and some change. On the cash register, it shows the difference on the screen for the customers to see. When she got her order of the Filet O'Fish meal with the extra dollop of sauce on it, she complained the sandwich was too soggy. One of the assistant managers listened to the woman's complaint, and she took it upon herself to give her what she wanted with fresh hot food. This same woman decided to fill out a service complaint card because she liked being a Karen. I told the assistant manager to throw it out because you cannot please everybody. That woman and her friends were there for quite a while, and one of the usual elderly customers showed up to get his senior coffee. Another assistant manager was trying to be cute by saying this old man was a grouch in a friendly way. When she asked me if this man was a grouch, I said, "Not as much as she is!" while pointing my finger at her. Immediately, that woman and her friends left and never saw them again. The saying, "The customer is always right" is not true. She should have realized that the extra dollop of fish sauce would make the sandwich soggy since one dollop is enough. These Karens are not the brightest bulb on the tree.
WAIT, A PLACE IN *CELEBRATION, FLORIDA* WENT THROUGH THE TROUBLE OF COLLECTING TWO CENTS? 🤣🤣🤣 if you're reading this and don't understand why I'm specifically laughing at the location, then do yourself a favor and Google Celebration -- the city was literally an attempt at creating the "perfect town" by Walt Disney, so it's EX-PEN-SIVE. 😱 it just adds an extra thick layer of satisfaction to that MC. 🤣
The last story is one of those examples of how you have to let idiots figure things out for themselves. Seriously, if you don't want your mouth burnt, don't ask for food hot enough to burn your mouth.
in story 1 YES i have had issues with customers with ids over age just your typical ILL GET YOU FIRED BUT here's the funny part that day we had an id CHECK BY THE POLICE! and they were REQUIRED to be in their normal clothes BUT still has the power to DETAIN IN HANDCUFFS and the officer EXCUSES HIMSELF and explains that we ALWAYS do it the same way NO MATTER WHAT! it's how WE WERE TRAINED!
Worked in retail. Too many people think expired id cards are still valid. Alcohol selling laws are strictly draconian. Everything has to be to the "T." Laws are specifically written to specify "valid I'd" which means once expired, they are no longer valid. It doesn't matter that the photo clearly shows the person standing in front of me but is expired and it's no longer valid for the purpose of purchasing alcohol. Also had to card the entire group of people buying because "furnishing or causing the furnishment of alcohol" is illegal.
The first story was so awesome, i remember when karen originally didnt have a her own ID on her after causing trouble about the other customers not showing her ID even tho she was old enough
The expired ID confused me until I remembered that you use your drivers license for your ID. In South Africa we have separate ID so you can still have ID even if you don't drive. What do people that can't drive (blind etc)?
I got kicked out of my regular dispensary for having an expired ID. It was like DAYS after, I had renewed it online already and was in the limbo waiting time where it was floating around in the mail somewhere, and I had the paperwork proving this fact. I had done everything in my power to be within the law, so imagine my horror when I was told I couldn't go into my dispensary when my PTSD symptoms were amping up and I decided to try getting some sleep gummies. I was extremely polite to the staff up front and they were pretty meh about telling me I was screwed, but I kept my cool, and I sent my mother in with a post-it note containing a short list of my requested items. You'd think THAT would've been the thing they'd have a problem with -- we were NOT subtle at all about the fact that she was going in there to shop for ME, but oh no, that? They did NOT care about it. I was like uhhhh ok well I'll wait for you here, and I sat in a chair in the lobby (it's accessible to anyone who walks in the front door, but to get into the actual store area they have to buzz you into an always-locked door after checking your ID). The lady sees/hears all of this, says nothing, buzzes my mom in, says nothing, I sit there for about a minute and a half, she says nothing.... AND THEN suddenly she decides to tell me I'm not allowed to sit inside at all without my ID and I needed to get out. Ma'am what?! I don't really anger easily and I DEFINITELY hardly ever SHOW anger openly, but I was so irritated by her waiting to tell me that until my mom was inside WITH THE CAR KEYS, especially since she heard us talking about how I felt too crappy to wait in the heat and would wait in the A/C. I wasn't mean to that lady or anything, but I definitely slammed the front door open like the hulk and stormed out without a word, haha. My mom found me fuming, sitting on the curb alone in a bad part of town and she was not thrilled when I told her why I wasn't inside! So yeah, it's sorta happened to me before, but different. 😜
I love the DMV where I live. You go in for an driver's license issue (getting a new one, a renewal, etc), you walk out with the license IN YOUR HAND. No way are they going to mail a driver's license to you with all the shit that goes on with mail going through the USPS. Now, if they can only figure out how to get the registration renewal stickers to us without them having to go through the mail.
@@tinydancer7426 see the DMV here is such a nightmare that I would renew online every time if it were an option (you can only do it every other time, since you'll visibly age too much between photos if they don't drag you in there every few years 🙄😜)! Last renewal I did in person, I was waiting for like FOUR HOURS and I was forced to stand the entire time, without even being able to lean against a wall or anything, and I have a disability so I was in absolute AGONY after thirty minutes. Despite the photo being the size of a postage stamp, you can tell I've been holding back tears all morning in it, haha -- you KNOW you're desperate to avoid the DMV when you choose to renew online and KEEP a photo that bad for another cycle!! 😂
While fluff makes a good point about food being too hot he makes no mention of when it’s too cold I hate it when I order a burger with cheese and the cheese is not melted and actually cold
I had a teacher incorrectly fail me on a written test. Two or three students aced the test, and the entire rest of the class failed. The teacher refused to talk to me about the grade and I ran out of his class in tears. My friend (who passed the test) told the teacher that I had the same answers that she had, yet I had failed. The teacher came to my next class and interrupted the class to apologize to me IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE CLASS.
Wow! That’s amazing!
well, she was a shitty teacher who ignore her student but who at least admit her mistakes and apologise
yes and then everybody stood up and clapped... 🙄

In story 2 the manager had no business being a manager. He should have called out the other workers for their behaviour.
Haha... I called it the moment Karen began to whine about the ID. I was expecting her to have forgotten hers, but this was even better.
Well, she did do it to herself, she should have just kept her mouth shut. I loved it when her face turned white though when OP said her ID was invalid.....
Seriously, don't demand the rules for other people then demand an exception
@@TJDious Exactly, she put her foot in her mouth with that remark she made
Geez I wonder if she learned to mind her own business?
@@marshawargo7238 Of course not.
I facepalmed so hard I almost knocked myself out with the teacher being angry about a deaf student not listening to them.
I had someone tell me in a job interview that they would be hiring me but needed to get the hearing aids fixed so I wouldn’t have to ask customers to repeat themselves. I explained that that wasn’t how hearing/hearing aids work and told them to move on to their next applicant. 😂 (I also wrote to their hiring team anonymously and let them know he was a risk to them with any ADA employees under him.)
@Elphieglindie ! some people are so dense I wonder how they have survived to adulthood.
It was in the 1980s and I would get harassed like that. One time, an engineer - not my manager - asked me to type a letter. I told him I didn't type while touch typing in some programming code I was working on. My program, my code. He got all huffy and went to my supervisor, then went off to my manager. I said, I thought I was hired to do programming, not typing letters. Manager looked at me, then told the engineer to take it to the department secretary in another building. thanks, Dennis.
Story 3: any student that has some kind of a medical ... hindrance? should be taken care of and made sure that there is no situations that could be happening. A good teacher will take care to make sure they have everything they need when they need it.
I am a public school teacher in the USA. If a student has any health issues that could affect their learning, a group of educational professionals will meet to determine the best accommodations for that student to help them access the material that their classmates are learning. Teachers are required by law to follow these accommodations.
The moment Karen said legal ID I knew she wasn’t getting any alcohol 😂
Once, a very long time ago, I was in a similar position to the OP of Story 1. Unfortunately, my supervisor didn't have my back.
Story 3: It's polite to have your hand raised, but it's pretty disrespectful to ignore a raised hand.
Last year, I was out with my family, including my daughter. She's 10 at the time. We are talking about the stuff in my wallet and I'm showing her all my documents and what they mean. When she sees my ID, she says "daddy, this is expired!". I look at her and say "no, honey, you're looking at the date this was issued. The expiration date is right here, and... Oh... It IS expired..."
It absolutely stuns me that the music teacher Karen either a) was aware of OP's hearing impairment and decided to cruelly ignore his normal needs, b) was unaware of OP's hearing and decided he was a "troublemaker," and c) is/was still teaching in that school after the incident. Ignorant people always seem to amplify their ignorance the more obvious the situation, as with OP's case. Cheers....
unfortunately it's often hard to fire teachers.
I had a teacher that always failed me on everything, I mean everything. Tests, homework, in-class work, etc. I have no idea why she hated me so much. I never talked, always rose my hand, etc. At the end of each six-week period, I would have a PTA meeting that would include my disabilities worker lady. Every single time, the teacher would be forced to give me the proper grade, which would always end up being from 90 to 100's. She did this the entire year. She wasn't fired. Four or six years later my middle brother had her, she did the exact same thing to him. Then a few years after him, our youngest brother had her. Yup, did it to him too. She was never fired. She did this is a lot of other students too. She was awful. I just hope that she's suffering the worse pain imaginable for the rest of her miserable life.
Another teacher, I never had him, in our school (in the late 90's / early 2000's) was a bit crazy. He never harmed students or went "crazy" but he would often talk to his coffee mug, talk to a filing cabinet and other stuff. He was a great teacher from what I hear. He would start lecturing and then begin mumbling something else that turned into a completely different subject, like aliens or dinosaurs, just random things. Students liked him. iirc he was a Vietnam vet, so probably a bit of ptsd going on.
Not me!! I’m Legally Blind & the Hell we went through due to “Teachers” & the “Principal” due to “She can read, so she can see, so what’s the issue!?!” Just because I could read, doesn’t mean I can see everything else around me. I have a limited field of vision, but what I do see, is fine. Think we could get that into them though? I still have Panic Attacks thanks to those years. Of course none were fired. Sadly, not much has changed. 🎶😔
Back when I was a self-employed contract programmer, my then GF bought something from a catalogue - one of those that allows you to do three payments - she didn't, she paid the bill. This seems to have completely short circuited their system. She then got a bill for £0.00 - a month later another, reminder, bill for £0.00 and, finally, a DEMAND FOR PAYMENT (all caps) with threats that, if she didn't pay the outstanding £0.00 they'd take her to court - this was when she first showed it to me (she being somewhat panicked by the language). Of course I knew what had happened - some coder had decided to check for non-zero balance before rounding - and the £0.005 was non-zero and had been rounded to zero.
Thing is, being contract, I had my own limited company - and my GF did the business banking on a Monday morning - so I told her just to take it to the bank and pay it - and instruct the teller that she wanted to pay in cash. The teller said "oh yes, right-O", stamped the bill and handed the receipt back to my GF. "Will that work?" the GF asked, "oh yes" the teller replied "and your partner is being especially evil about it because, as it's a cash payment, it's gone through as a Giro Credit - which has an £8.00 fee!"
Story 1: Karen should be feeling lucky that she was allowed to see the movie without proof of age.
I wish the op when she was walking away with the laptop and he started screaming had turned around and said oh what's wrong HONEY?are YOU having YOUR period NOW? And then just kept walking out like a boss that would have been sweet as hell LOL
Or something along the lines of, "Not that it's any of your damned business, but yes... so I'll be irritable for the next few days. What's *your* excuse for being a raging a$$hole 24/7/365?"
As said in many other channels: "Never mess with the IT-person!"
Story #3 is a repeat.
For #4 a woman had paid off her Sears charge card. The next month she got a bill for $0.00 so she ignored it. The following month she received another bill for $0.00. She ignored that one as well. The next month she received a letter demanding payment or the attorneys would get involved. She wrote a check for $0.00 and never heard from them again. Any wonder why Sears went down the tubes?
Story 1, it's no surprise that a Karen gets angry she has to abide by the law as well. Karens think they can order others to follow the law and their above it.
Story 3, there are teachers that need to get over themselves. Teachers like her don't realize that being a butt to disabled students can get them in big trouble. Especially in this case she got herself humiliated it also didn't help that she refused to admit that she was wrong and kept trying to insist that op was a bad kid.
Nope I bet she’s one of those teachers that wants to say he’s not really deaf he’s just using them as a excuse
If that was the case, she shouldn't be working at a school for Special Needs Children.....
I am thinking OP's parents could make an ADA lawsuit. That teacher is poking a huge bear.
@@lancerevell5979 Exactly, what she did was not right and glad she got reprimanded for it.
Yep, because having surgery to get CI is cheap and fun. 🙄
In Germany it is. At least the „cheap“ part.
It is also vastly more fun than having tinitus all day long.
Had something like that happen to me as well, just in sports and the batteries were in the changing room.I just looked at the teacher for a hot second until saying: if I am not allowed to poke your eyes out, you are not allowed to keep me from getting fresh batteries.
Never going to forget that face, so damn pissed. Never heard any consequences.
Yes I was a downright asshole if pushed a little, but I was only mirroring the way they spoke with me.
Play dumb games, win dumb prizes.
Story 1 - Could have made it Pro by waiting for her to leave, finding what car she was driving and dropping a dime to the police telling them there is someone driving on an expired license.
Me listening to Story1: “Hm, this story sounds familiar. Accidental repeat?”
Malicious compliance twist: “Nope. That’s a different punchline than the last time.”
And, yes, I’ve forgotten to renew mine a couple times as well. Which sucks because it means I have to pay a late fee to renew at that point.
Where I live you used to get 3 months grace. Since mine expires in Dec, when there are more expenses, I didn't worry. I got pulled over & told you are expired. Ya but what about the grace? He says the fine doesn't start till then, but Your license Is Expired. I didn't get a ticket & went straight to the BMV! Never happened again
One time the DMV didn't issue me my new ID after I paid for the renewal on time and everything. I went down and got it all sorted out for free.
It's the same story though, you are right it was a repeat.
The cinema story is the same as an older one, only difference i noticed was karen before didn't a licence to now having it but its expired
After listening to the whole episode, I think the one about the cochlear implants in music class was also a repeat.
If I was in the class of the deaf student, I would have yelled, ARE YOU F'N DEAF, LIKE OP IS.
I had a bit.. of a 4th grade teacher. I had to puke so I raised my hand to go to the restroom. She looked directly at me and put her head down completely ignoring me. So, I puked.
Downside to being deaf: unable to hear Fluff read these entertaining stories
As a retired teacher, unfortunately, I believe the teacher knew she was ignoring the students and perversely enjoyed seeing him fail.
There are teachers who allow bad chemistry to get in the way of good teaching. This is one reason that tenure needs to be revisited for many educators.
Yeah I hate that sort of teacher I was doing a GCSE IT course and for one of the coursework based modules gave the class minimal information on the assessment objectives (if this was directions her response would be equivalent to *wrist circling* “it’s over in that direction”) and for what she did tell us we had to practically teach ourselves unless you where one of her favourites they got step by step help, all information and feedback. she dragged quite a few people’s end of course grades down by 1 to 2 letters when the course ended. The year after we had her we never saw her again.
Yeah. My highschool councilor thought all kids were stupid, so she put me and her other students in special ed. Luckily, she was fired.
And it is always women. I am a girl and will always be sexist towards women with no shame because of how they treated me all my life.

My son is deaf in one ear. First teacher conference she was like, your son doesn’t seem to pay attention sometimes. I was like, did you see his 504 plan? He probably just didn’t hear you.
The music teacher one reminded me of my music teacher from middle school. She assumed no one would believe a student over her, so since she was very uptight about how she expected the students to sing, she started threatening to shoot kids that didn't sing the way she wanted to. If only one kid was the target she may have gotten away with it, but she did it to multiple students per class, per grade. My parents got evidence and got her fired, then the principal expelled our entire family since he knew my parents had evidence of him physically assaulting students. After all, if we did anything afterwards he could claim fabrication of evidence of disgruntled parents. They just gave the evidence to other parents.
Story 1: I knew she was going to pull a "Rules for thee, not for me" when Karen learned that the ID expired. They're so predictable
The B from the restaurant was manifesting the burn to her beak by speaking it into existence when she demanded the molten lava gravy at the order window! So glad the restaurant manager was there supporting her employees.
Story 4 is some top-tier pettiness, especially because they started it by demanding such a trivial amount of money without thinking about it.
It has been a couple of decades since this happened, and both my parents are dead now (god riddance) but before I cut contact with them, they convinced my husband at the time, to let them move in, just for a week or two, because they put in their 30 day notice to vacate their rental before they had found another place to move. Typically, since I needed to cook for my own kids, I was the one who primarily did the cooking. My kids, husband, and myself ate first, and my parents were welcome to whatever was left over. On the times when my mom made food for herself and my dad, my dad would, unfailingly, every, single time she cooked for him, would take a bite, burn is mouth and then berate my mom for serving him food that burned him. I was pregnant with my forth child during this, and the stress I felt from his yelling and swearing got to be too much for me. So one evening, after my mom had made my dad food, he took a bite, burned his mouth, and tarted screaming at my mom again for the food being too hot. I asked him, "What did you expect, cold food?" He responds, "No, but I shouldn't have to get burned every time I eat something!" I countered, "Perhaps you should wait for I to cool down before taking a bite. Even my children know to do that." His response to that, "Well, maybe your mom shouldn't cook the food at suck a high temperature!" I chuckled at how ridiculous that was, and said, "That's not how cooking works! If you don't cook food at the proper temperature, it doesn't kill bacteria, now does it properly cook the food!" He harumphed at that. He never shouted about food being too hot again, though. P.S. it took two years before they finally moved out, but only because my own family was threatened with eviction by our landlord because we had unauthorized people living there. It only took them a week to find a place, so I think they just planned on being squatters indefinitely.
Story 4: well, they did ask for his two cents, but lacked to mention what kind of currency they were seaking.
As someone with hearingloss music teachers are my enemies
this saddens me, i also have hearing loss from childhood, and my music teachers(all my teachers really) went out of there way to make sure i could understand what we were doing, and to usually match me in tasks with good kids who could help me.
@@gutz-Coldrevenge Sounds like you had a rare, great teacher :) I absolutely love music; it's life. ...and I am losing my hearing :(

For the ID story, I work retail...
I have seen plenty of expired IDs and normally I get told " Oh.. wait what?... " then they look at it and see I wasn't lying " Oh no, I'm sorry" I will then say " it's okay, just make sure to get it fixed for next time " and if it's the first time they've done this I run it anyway.
Then there's the one's who just go " It shows I'm old enough!!! You can't tell me I can't have those cigarettes!! " and I just go " Sorry, it's the law and I ain't paying that fine of over 1000 bucks " and they keep going in circles of the same thing.

Story 1: I work for a agency that needs to look at government ID when people are setting up accounts on government websites. It's very rare that we get people with expired ID, but it's generally a real sh*t show when it does happen. Here's someone who is trying to log on to an account, usually on a deadline, and not only can they not do that since we can't verify their identity, but they've just discovered that they have bigger problems. Can't drive with an expired license; can't travel with an expired passport; difficulties with some medical procedures with expired medical card; etc.
The way to think about it is that when gov't issued ID expires it is not only no longer valid, but should be destroyed. Legally, presenting expired ID is the same as presenting fake ID.
I got a fix-it ticket and the officer said"your license is expired" I was like what??! Woops! Lol, it happens
Did he start beating you with his billy club and end up dragging you in?
As long as you weren’t berating someone else over their ID, we’ll laugh along with you. 🙂
Karen wasn't wrong.. also should have asked for her student ID
Story 3: If I may, Ms. L's face should have turned white, not red because she realized her mistake. Also, she should have been reprimanded for ignoring OP during Class.
Red from embarrassment, I'm guessing. Or anger.
I don’t think you can know exactly what someone is thinking or what color their face would turn in a given situation. My face does not turn white when I’m embarrassed.
@@elainehelms4076 I would think that it was a figure of speech....
That's racist.
I had an aunt that would come to a restaurant I worked at. It never failed, she would complain about her coffee not being hot. I would tell her if she didn't put so much cream in it it would probably be hot. I told her nobody else ever complained about being served cold coffee. She would insist on having the coffee warmed up in the microwave. So I did. Lol. She would of course grab another creamer. As soon as she dumped it in the cup, lol, of course it overflowed from the cold meeting the hot. Of course she then complained about it being too hot. I told her to blow on it. Lol. She was a Karen even then long before the word meant anything more than a name.
I had some pretty awful teachers in school, too. Ones who didn't understand that I have ADD, or didn't care. They seemed to delight in tormenting me almost as much as the other kids did. 😢 That teacher reminds me of them. There was even one who was like Dolores Umbridge from the Harry Potter series. I hated her!
Title story:
ANY teacher that acts like this NEEDS TO BE FIRED ON THE SPOT!
So yes I have forgotten to renew my license before I went 3 months without renewing it and never knew I had to renew it so I was changing wallets when I realized I was driving on an expired license so I had my mother drive me to the DMV to get it renewed as we didn't have internet at the time.
Expired IDs are the worst. I worked at a drug store that sold all sorts of stuff you needed ID for. Alcohol, birth control, money orders, money transfers, lottery sales and redemption, the works. I had some beautiful malicious compliance stories over the years.

My Drivers License expired in the middle of the lock down, and I tried to renew it on their website, but the damn thing said I had to go in person to renew it. I went to the DMV only to find the place was closed to the public. I then went home, and call them only to be placed on hold for close to 3 freaking hours. Finally someone answered, and I told them the situation only for them to tell me I had to come in person.
Gee was this in Indiana cause it sure sounds like it
We were lucky. We could renew online. Just no new pic.
I live in Arizona, our licenses do not expire until we are 65 years old. I have been accused of a fake ID more than a few times. When the manager is called I had googled the rules for our DLs or IDs and it winds up in a good laugh and the employee having that "OH SHIT' kind of look LMAO
You don't even have to update the picture? You still have your teenaged picture on your ID when you're 60?
Where I live during the pandemic, we had a grace period for renewing driver's licenses, especially if you had to change information like your address.
The last story. The restaurant followed the customer's instructions, made in front of witnesses, to the letter regarding the gravy. In a litigious society, that's all that's needed to cover the restaurant, legally speaking.
I am cackling at the first story. Now that is funny! Make sure your IDs are in date people, LOL!

My brother once got a dividend payment from a pension scheme he had entered into in one of his old jobs. It arrived via Royal Mail and my mother framed it and put it on the wall ! The cheque was for 1p ! This was in the early 1980’s.
story 1 - In my country if you look under 25 , your ID can be requested by the Bar Tender. I just renewed by Drivers license but the card will take 3 weeks to be produced and mailed to me. So technically it is now an expired card but I have a paper license I can show police if driving.
Sadly, if OP hadn't made the 1 cent overpayment, etc, it sounds like no one would have taken this situation seriously and fix the mistake. If it was never fixed, over the years, that 2 cents would accrue to a large amount, causing OP serious trouble, through a collection agency.
OP spent a lot of time, in his first and only attempt, to shut that sh1t down. Good goi g OP!
As for the OP that had to pay a 2-cent move out fee, if this happened in the United States I don’t think that apartment management office can legally refuse to accept his pennies.
The invalid ID - that's a well played game of "UNO reverse"... I had my ID re-done last year but not because it was expired. I had a small edge broken off and in Germany many people told me that it's no longer valid. So I got to have it re-done. When I once took a train to Salzburg, Austria (where I live now) on the way back the federal police of Germany walked trough the train, doing ID checks (and maybe checks for illegal immigrants) - as soon as I handed my ID, I also tried to hand the officer a letter stating the new ID is already ordered and it takes up to 6 weeks to be made. This officer said "your ID is broken, this couldn't be accepted" my response as his 3 colleagues are coming closer? "thats why I tried to hand you this here. I already ordered a new ID card but it's still in production..." I also scanned the QR code on the letter, logged in on the check page and showed him the "production in progress" shown on screen. He sure looked defeated and just said "sorry" - maybe he's the reason for a good laugh at the station and well, he's been pretty new to the force...
Don't get me wrong here, he's done his job well but he couldn't get it, why I tried to hand him the letter showing the ID in production
The story with the teacher. I've had one like that in 6th grade. Firstly I'm going to be straight and honest with y'all. I'm autistic with adhd add and aspergers. The teacher in question was my 6th grade history teacher and he and I went at it twice and the first time I balled up my glasses into a ball and to this day I still don't know how I did it to begin with. Oh and the lenses were still intact by the way. and the second time I nearly threw a book at his head
I was really hoping the first story was gonna lead into a senior citizen discount punchline.
Here is my ID issue, I was in my middle 40's and went to buy booze and handed over my ID very happily and to my surprise I was denied my purchase because my ID was an ID not a driver's license! I don't and never have, and was a tad sad but oh well! Off to a different liquid store I went! Problem solved!😁👍🤷♀️
A non-driver's license ID must be treated the same as a driver's license
Thanks for reminding me and causing me to check my driver's license. I will put it in my calendar app. Thank you.
I think the moment the theater guy saw that Karen’s ID was expired was the moment she was served good old-fashioned karma for acting like she has some kind of authority over people she don’t even know. Also, in Story 2, I would’ve snapped and ripped them all a new one and said, “is this the medieval times? Because that’s exactly how you all are acting. While I’m at it, why don’t I get you some wine and mutton?”
3:38 Me while trying to be polite: “Please don’t tell me how to do my job.”
Story 3: they slightly disrespected the teacher by not doing the assignment. The music teacher wanted a peice of music inspired by silence. I imagine the sound of wind blowing at the pace of a heartbeat, you have the benefit of knowing how to hear sometimes. Additionally add some rhythmic swaying to your silence so it's more obvious this IS your performance... it's certainly not your fault that the inspiration music file for you was so different than everyone else but that just means your art will be unique
Last story... To quote a certain Vulcan, "Revenge is best served cold" however in this case steaming hot!!! Lmao
Story 1: Some people are well aware when their ID is expired, and still think it shouldn't matter. I work in retail, and I have to be ready for that all the time. I had one woman who wanted to do a "return" for a sundress that was clearly too small for her, but she had no receipt, so we had to get information off her ID. The only one she presents expired DECADES ago; she no longer looks like her picture, and I'm pretty sure the format is older than I am. And of course, she thought this was enough, and that she knew an employee who she knew personally would vouch for her. Our manager permitted it, but only for store credit, as it was clear to everyone that she never actually purchased that dress to begin with. Some people.
Hell, we get notified here 6 months before it expires. There really is no excuse to delay. I got mine done a week after I got the notice
@Old Man Jim The stupid real ID laws can make it hard to renew your license. Mine was expired for 2 years because I lost my birth certificate, and I live in my car, so I couldn't prove my residential address since I don't have one. Eventually, my sister helped me get a new birth certificate, and I found out that they now allow you to get real ID without an address if you sign something saying you're homeless. I did have to retake the driving test because my license was expired for over a year. I barely managed to pass the vision test, so that could have been another obstacle.
Why the hell did ypur manager give her store credit?
I actually have a funny story about a teacher myself. So there’s this teacher I don’t remember his initials so we shall call him Mr M. So one time we had Mr M as a substitute because our normal teacher was away, now Mr M was a bit of a smart ass and pretty rude to us students. So a couple days prior we had a test and I didn’t really think about it but when we had Mr M he asked us to do work on paper and hand it in even if we already have done it (so we would have to re-write) which I thought was stupid. Anyway when he was handing out the pieces of paper he completely missed the table me and my friends were on so of course we didn’t say anything knowing we didn’t have to do work. When the class ended he asked everyone to hand in the piece of paper and our table was last, when he got to ask he asked for the paper, I replied with “sir, you didn’t give us the paper to write on plus you didn’t even explain what we were meant to be doing.” Mr M replied with “well why didn’t you come up and ask for a paper?” My friend next to me interrupted with “dude, why on earth would we ask to do work when we know we could get away with not doing any.” He looked at us with anger and the bell rang, we grabbed our stuff and walked out and I don’t know what he did after that. 😊
Had to share this.... The story about the expired ID? It got me thinking, "I wonder when my ID expires?"
Nine days from now! 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you Fluff for the story! You just saved my butt!
See I just renew mine on my birthday so I don't have this probelm.
Don't they send you something in the mail when it's about to expire?
@@Kelle0284 Not for me where I'm at. IDK. Just glad I got this heads up.
@@Avrysatos How often do you have to renew your driver's license where you live? My isn't going to expire until 2030.
@@Primalxbeast ...mine expires in 2028. 10 years.
We don't have specific ID cards here, Québec, Canada. What we use for ID before we have (or if we can't have) a driver's license is our government issued medical card (We have universal health care.), it's valid for 8 years and we get the paperwork in the mail to renew it a few months before they expire. And for the driver's licence, we get the paperwork in the mail too to renew it, with the bill to renew it, for our birthday month.
Expired ID story: With the legal drinking age being 18, this is obviously not the US. But the part about expired ID's applies here as well. Justice was served even if the wine wasn't. I'm a retired truck driver. Here, you make damn sure your CDL is up to date as there are very large fines for driving with it (and/or your DOT medical card) being expired. Most good trucking companies will make sure you get home on time to renew it as they have the license in their files and they can be fined as well if it expires.
Deaf student story: I have heard about cochlear implants from a person who had them. He said that given the way they work, listening to music that he didn't already know was not really an option because of the way they worked. They simply did not have the complexity to provide the full effect of the music and he would miss much of it. If it was something he knew before going deaf, his memory filled in the blanks.
Under/over payment story: I like what OP did there. Many years back I lived in a medium sized city that collected a "city income tax". It wasn't that much (1%) but it was a pain as most companies either didn't withhold for it or didn't withhold enough to cover it come tax time. The city revenue department had a policy that city taxpayers didn't have to pay if their taxes were under X amount (a few dollars) as it would cost them more to process it and the amount would be held over and added to taxes due the following year. Well, one year I owed about $2, under the amount required to pay that year. I paid it anyway, by check, knowing it would cost them more to process it and damned if I was going to let them dun me even more the following year. And yes, they would add interest on the amount.
Hot gravy story: I'm sure that it being a small town with customers witnessing the whole thing, news of what happened spread pretty fast and most people probably thought she got what she richly deserved. She was almost certainly too embarrassed to try to take legal action with so many witnesses present.
Story 2: is that why they call it Java... I'll see myself out.
Story 2: Never tick off someone who has something you need (or may need). That obviously includes IT professionals.
I only have a state ID, so know one really cared...except for the ones that sell train tickets...I will never again let my ID lapse!
I would have watched at the end of the movie to see if Karen got in a car and drove home. If so a call to 911 might be in order to report a woman driving without a valid license. Laws are laws after all, lol!
I love it when people claim all the teacher forced me to stay in the class they can't force you it's called stand up and walk out and if they tell you to sit down tell him to go f*** off I did it a million and a half times never once gotten in trouble was mostly bathroom
I once got detention because a coach covering another teacher's class and turning it into a study period went on a power trip and refused to let me or anybody else leave to go to the bathroom. I left anyways. I also got lines for swearing when my bookbag crushed my foot
@@NekoYuki I feel for you I hope that coach got in trouble but probably didn't that's just how schools work corrupt as can be
@@zen4realfightman426 No he did not. Both coaches who did that shit to me got away with it. It wasn't even the F bomb I dropped in pain. It was "shit". In high school
@@NekoYuki yeah sounds about right as I said schools are corrupt as hell I'm guessing partially the only reason why I never got in trouble because I was basically a god at my school I was in leagues with the head principal essentially immune to punishment aside from like something extreme
5:33 JUST ORDER SOMETHING OTHER THAN WINE, KAREN! Btw, this is the first time I’ve heard of a movie theater serving alcoholic beverages.
The story on the apartment bill reminded me about a bill from my dentist. I never paid my dental office bill until after my dental insurance paid first (I had a family of 6 at the time and was sure where my copay standing was with the insurance company. ) So I received a bill from the dental office for a dollar. I thin k this is stupid on their part, postage, costom stationery , and office time yo send this bill cost more than the amount billed. So I ignored paying it. Next month, the same billing process took place. The third month, the same thing happened, but with a note that they would send the bill to collections. As with having a large family, someone was in need of dental care. So when I was at the dentist's office, I handed the account's payable clerk a check for a dollar and made the statement I think I won, and she just looked at me like what are you talking about. From that point on, I never received a bill for less than $10. From than on bill that was for less than that amount, it was noted as being written off as paid in full
I feel like this video is a Malicious Compliance because 2 (or 3) of the stories have already been told in DarkFluff
Many years ago, I worked at a casino in Southern Indiana. Casino employees are required to wear their badge on their chest. So after 9 years, you get in the habit of just pointing to the badge when someone asked you for ID or they would simply see it and not bother to ask as you had to be 21 to work there. I am at home with my roommate and we are in a thunder storm. My roommate is standing in the kitchen and can see the driveway while I am laying on the couch. There is a loud crash outside and my friend turns around and says, "Do you want the good news or the bad news first? Now on the property were 2 Bartley Pear trees. I hate these damn trees because they grow fast and dies faster by spilitting out. Now I had on 3 previous occasions cut up this tree where pieces had fallen and if course these trees were on either side of the driveway. So I say good news please.
"Your know those trees you hate? They are both gone now. Bad news they teach fell across the sang driveway so our cats are trapped in the garage. We manage to get his vehicle out to go to Home Depot to rent a chainsaw. So I go to rent it and the guy says,"Do you realize your driver's license expired 3 years ago? 🤦♀️. What is even funnier is that I had gotten a speeding ticket a month before. 😜😂
2 cents story reminds me of the time I closed a checking account. A few weeks later I received a bank statement with a balance of 1 cent. I had earned 1 penny in interest. So I returned to the bank and closed the account again. The teller gave me a penny.
Not alcohol, but my S.O. couldn't get cigarettes after his ID expired.
In New York, your license expires on your birthday. I've seen a cop say, "Happy Birthday. You're driving on an invalid license."
What is STEVO and why should I be afraid of him
I worked for a company that CLEARLY stated "cancel your subscription to this newspaper a week before the already paid period ends". You cannot miss it during the sign-up process. It's not even fine print, it is very clear. People were trying to be smug and say "well we got this bill like two weeks ago into the new period and we refuse to pay it!", while they received the bill via e-mail the same day of the billing. The satisfaction, I got to tell them: "well, that is your choice. I can bill you for one month, since it is in our terms of service, which you agreed to. If you still refuse to pay, things will escalate and the firm responsible of covering of claims will contact you." Some people refused as far as that out of spite. The sum will be claimed whether they want it or not. If you are that illiterate to big letters in terms and conditions it's your own fault.
At an old job many years ago, I would stop at McDonald's for my morning Hot Chocolate before each shift. One morning I had to get fuel on the way to work so I thought Id save some time and get my Hot chocolate at the fuel station. The plastic lid burnt my lip before I even got to taste the drink. Half hour drive to work and it was still too hot so I put it in the fridge for 10 minutes before I could finally drink it. Ill never understand people that want their drinks this hot.
In the '90s, I worked as a cashier for McDonald's in Florida, taking customer food orders. Most often, the public was nice, and they did not cause any problems. One afternoon though, a woman came into the restaurant and wanted a Filet O'Fish meal and an extra dollop of sauce. When the other cashier received a $10 bill, this woman complained the change was less than she thought it should be. I swear this person could not even do basic math. I explained to her that since the final amount was over $5, the change would be less than $3 and some change. On the cash register, it shows the difference on the screen for the customers to see.
When she got her order of the Filet O'Fish meal with the extra dollop of sauce on it, she complained the sandwich was too soggy. One of the assistant managers listened to the woman's complaint, and she took it upon herself to give her what she wanted with fresh hot food. This same woman decided to fill out a service complaint card because she liked being a Karen. I told the assistant manager to throw it out because you cannot please everybody.
That woman and her friends were there for quite a while, and one of the usual elderly customers showed up to get his senior coffee. Another assistant manager was trying to be cute by saying this old man was a grouch in a friendly way. When she asked me if this man was a grouch, I said, "Not as much as she is!" while pointing my finger at her. Immediately, that woman and her friends left and never saw them again. The saying, "The customer is always right" is not true. She should have realized that the extra dollop of fish sauce would make the sandwich soggy since one dollop is enough. These Karens are not the brightest bulb on the tree.
These students have IEPs! EVERY TEACHER has a copy of accommodations BY LAW!
Expired ID? Has not happened to me yet. Until I need to "upgrade" it to an enhanced version.
WAIT, A PLACE IN *CELEBRATION, FLORIDA* WENT THROUGH THE TROUBLE OF COLLECTING TWO CENTS? 🤣🤣🤣 if you're reading this and don't understand why I'm specifically laughing at the location, then do yourself a favor and Google Celebration -- the city was literally an attempt at creating the "perfect town" by Walt Disney, so it's EX-PEN-SIVE. 😱 it just adds an extra thick layer of satisfaction to that MC. 🤣
A teacher who ignores her students has no right to accuse a student, deaf or otherwise, of ignoring her.
The last story is one of those examples of how you have to let idiots figure things out for themselves. Seriously, if you don't want your mouth burnt, don't ask for food hot enough to burn your mouth.
17:17 That’s pretty stupid to have to write a check for a measly 2 cents.
in story 1 YES i have had issues with customers with ids over age just your typical ILL GET YOU FIRED BUT here's the funny part that day we had an id CHECK BY THE POLICE! and they were REQUIRED to be in their normal clothes BUT still has the power to DETAIN IN HANDCUFFS and the officer EXCUSES HIMSELF and explains that we ALWAYS do it the same way NO MATTER WHAT! it's how WE WERE TRAINED!
In most of Europe legal drinking age is 16. And the heavy stuff at 18.
Not a good thing 🙃
Worked in retail. Too many people think expired id cards are still valid. Alcohol selling laws are strictly draconian. Everything has to be to the "T." Laws are specifically written to specify "valid I'd" which means once expired, they are no longer valid. It doesn't matter that the photo clearly shows the person standing in front of me but is expired and it's no longer valid for the purpose of purchasing alcohol.
Also had to card the entire group of people buying because "furnishing or causing the furnishment of alcohol" is illegal.
Ayee some more dark fluff. Ahhh yeah!
The first story was so awesome, i remember when karen originally didnt have a her own ID on her after causing trouble about the other customers not showing her ID even tho she was old enough
The expired ID confused me until I remembered that you use your drivers license for your ID. In South Africa we have separate ID so you can still have ID even if you don't drive. What do people that can't drive (blind etc)?
I got kicked out of my regular dispensary for having an expired ID. It was like DAYS after, I had renewed it online already and was in the limbo waiting time where it was floating around in the mail somewhere, and I had the paperwork proving this fact. I had done everything in my power to be within the law, so imagine my horror when I was told I couldn't go into my dispensary when my PTSD symptoms were amping up and I decided to try getting some sleep gummies. I was extremely polite to the staff up front and they were pretty meh about telling me I was screwed, but I kept my cool, and I sent my mother in with a post-it note containing a short list of my requested items. You'd think THAT would've been the thing they'd have a problem with -- we were NOT subtle at all about the fact that she was going in there to shop for ME, but oh no, that? They did NOT care about it. I was like uhhhh ok well I'll wait for you here, and I sat in a chair in the lobby (it's accessible to anyone who walks in the front door, but to get into the actual store area they have to buzz you into an always-locked door after checking your ID). The lady sees/hears all of this, says nothing, buzzes my mom in, says nothing, I sit there for about a minute and a half, she says nothing.... AND THEN suddenly she decides to tell me I'm not allowed to sit inside at all without my ID and I needed to get out. Ma'am what?! I don't really anger easily and I DEFINITELY hardly ever SHOW anger openly, but I was so irritated by her waiting to tell me that until my mom was inside WITH THE CAR KEYS, especially since she heard us talking about how I felt too crappy to wait in the heat and would wait in the A/C. I wasn't mean to that lady or anything, but I definitely slammed the front door open like the hulk and stormed out without a word, haha. My mom found me fuming, sitting on the curb alone in a bad part of town and she was not thrilled when I told her why I wasn't inside! So yeah, it's sorta happened to me before, but different. 😜
I love the DMV where I live. You go in for an driver's license issue (getting a new one, a renewal, etc), you walk out with the license IN YOUR HAND. No way are they going to mail a driver's license to you with all the shit that goes on with mail going through the USPS. Now, if they can only figure out how to get the registration renewal stickers to us without them having to go through the mail.
@@tinydancer7426 see the DMV here is such a nightmare that I would renew online every time if it were an option (you can only do it every other time, since you'll visibly age too much between photos if they don't drag you in there every few years 🙄😜)! Last renewal I did in person, I was waiting for like FOUR HOURS and I was forced to stand the entire time, without even being able to lean against a wall or anything, and I have a disability so I was in absolute AGONY after thirty minutes. Despite the photo being the size of a postage stamp, you can tell I've been holding back tears all morning in it, haha -- you KNOW you're desperate to avoid the DMV when you choose to renew online and KEEP a photo that bad for another cycle!! 😂
While fluff makes a good point about food being too hot he makes no mention of when it’s too cold I hate it when I order a burger with cheese and the cheese is not melted and actually cold
