Was fired for no reason. Escorted off the property. Called a buddy of mine. That taco bell was one of the busiest in my state. Was shut down by my buddy for 2 weeks. My buddy was the lead health inspector. I made it a point to show up the day my buddy shut it down . Said hi and shook his hand. Made plans to have a few drinks later. The look of sheer hatred on my former store manager and district manager. Priceless. They knew what I did. I knew what I did. But they couldn't prove it.
I gave away thousands of dollars worth of free printers after some VP was a jerk to me. Anyone that called up wanting anything from technical support to ink was my 1000'th costumer and got the best printer we had to offer.
One of our kitchen managers quit after being completely fckd over week after week. Days worth of prep left for him to try and get done in a few hours. Before he left, he switched all of the kitchen staff to $200 an hour. It will be at least a week before our GM will notice he wont be able to reverse it for the previous pay period
I had a store manager at the grocery store where I worked get fired, do the exact same thing (switch people in the computer to massive salaries before he left), and he ended up being arrested for fraudulent tampering with the company's computer system. I'm not sure what came of my old boss' arrest, but I hope your kitchen manager doesn't get in trouble.
I quit after a heated arguement with my Egyptian boss, I reported his ass to HR and mentioned something the boss said which started an internal investigation. By the end of the investigation, authorites had to be called because he was illegaly in the country and was deported. This was in the UK.
Business owners literally can't function without employees unless they're going 100% solo. There's a reason employees are usually the most expensive cost to a business: they're the factor that actually makes the business operate on a day to day function.
Nah screw the grunts, the upper management is where the real work gets done, you know counting all the bills, paying all them. Who needs the grunts to get all the money and maintain the entire infrastructure in the first place? Seriously middle management is the worst. Just there to find make work while anyone else with a working brain could do it.
Number 2 was my dad. But they had to hire 10 people to do his job. They werent willing to pay him more before retirement. Now they have a department with over a million dollars payroll just to do what he did 😅
@bensoncheung2801 typical corporate shortsighteness. They think they can save a couple of bucks by screwing over 1 person, and up paying a lot more by having to find replacements.
Sounds a bit like what's about to happen with my dad, he works for a radio company and there really isn't a sacred hour they can't call him in to drive several hours to go fix someone else's mistake, he's working on trying to get a job at a different company where he can be on one week and off two. He is their number one worker to my knowledge and I heard multiple co-workers compliment him on it, I have a feeling they'll need like three extra people to do what he does. That was the inverse of the job he had for most of my life as I believe a house designer, where his boss kept taking away parts of his work because he thought he was pushing my dad too hard. He left that job because he was tired of just sitting in a cubicle for hours with nothing to do, I heard that his boss had tried to increase his wages a ton to get him to stay.
I quit a job as a cook in a restaurant the manager was a real tyrant , but before I left I took pictures of all the filthy disgusting conditions in the kitchen the bathroom, dining area and walk in reefer . I gave all that to the health department two days later they were shut down and a month later there are business . And it was such a pleasure to go in and get my final check and after I had it in my hand I told the manager that I did this the color just washed out of his face .
Niiiiiiice my resignation is not as funny but close enough. I worked at loblaws here in canada one [f THE WORST employers in canada. I worked as a cashier for 3 Fuckin years in those 3 years the manager a woman has done the following. Overworked me on carts When they hired me they made me the cart guy HATED the job so I would haul 12 small carts to the store and 8 -10 big ones for 3 years until I developed lower back pain . I told my manager i no longer want to haul carts this bitch goes"you cant pick and choose what tasks you can or cannot do". That was in 2021 Told the assistant store a manager one day in jan 2022 that I ve been doing this and the Front End Manager the bitch told me the reason. Assistant store manager goes"when was the last time you had this conversation i go last year ASM goes did she do anything i go no. ASM goes this will be the last time you haul carts so i sucked it up one last time doing it. But the bitch manager FEM would take FUCKIN FOREVER finding a cart person literal months she would sit in her office for 8 hours doing schedules while I an breaking my back for this bitch and she dont give a fuck. One time she trained a person on the customer service desk for 3 weeks first official shift on the customer service desk the newly trained guy has to train a girl who also wants to do the service desk. One time the bitch would go on 4 vacations every year once in march june aug december A lot more of this shit was going on but worse. But what finally drove me to say fuck it i m out was . In Aug 2022 i got a job start date was Sept 12 at a bank put in availability for one day a week bitch comes from vacation and wants me to work another day with the promise that if its not busy she will not book me to work. It was a lie from her teeth thanksgiving 2022 sunday before thanksgiving Friend of mi e calls me up saying come over lets play NBA 2K23 i m like sure. Called in sick for the first time in 3 years that day the saturday that followed thanksgiving bitch asks me why i called out i said i was sick bitch goes on to say i ve been here 3 years we need to count on you and says this you need to determine whether you want to be here or not. Giving me a ultimatium i begrudgingly said okay i ll stay she books me 3 weekends saturday and sunday in a row 3 weeks. I worked 2 weekends until it dawned on me that 3 years she treated me like trash insulted me and expects me to be loyal fuck that. I called in sick the following sunday. Now we head into November 2 weeks into it my favorite coworker a girl tells me its her last day and the bitch is giving her ultimatiums like me i told her how i was gonna miss her loved working with her among more my shift as 9-2 saturday bitch walks up to me that day at 11 and talks to me about why i am calling out i told her my reasons and she harshly goes you have to decide do you want to be here or not giving me another ultimatium.

Heres the best part my favorite coworker i messaged her on facebook following this calls it a legend move i could not agree more.
All the assistant managers quit, so I stepped up to fill the void to help the store keep runining at a Burger King (franchise)... this went on for several months, then my manager went on vacation so I was acting manager from open to close the entire time... about a week before the manager came back, the regional manager came by, I asked for a promotion to match my responibilities and was told "We cannot do that, you haven't taken the management test" so I asked to take it and was told "We cannot do that, the test is out of date. Deal with it. Just after that conversation a truck order came in, and the delivery guy ripped a handsink off the wall, so while the regional manager was sitting there on the floor getting sprayed in the face with water, I threw the store keys at him and quit on the spot. The regional manager had to cover the last week of the managers vacation. The manager asked me to return, and I said "Only if I get promoted." and was told "I checked on that and they will not allow it" so I said "Then I refuse your offer to return".
To clarify, I was making truck orders, processing payroll, making bank deposits, fireing people for failure to work, hiring new hires, opening the store and closing the store during that time. I set records for the drive through time at the store and employee moral was through the roof. But of course they couldn't promote me.
I probably would've retorted back after he asked to return and you asked for the promotion. After that, would've just been like "Then why in the balls did you ask me again, Idiot?" They need to make these people think realllly hard about their relative positions lol
My story of quitting and leaving a mess to deal with. I used to work as a line cook for a fast food restaurant. One day a bus pulled into our parking lot and gave our manager a heads up that they were going to be getting roughly 300 cheese burgers and some other items. My manager knew about this 6 hours ahead of time and the coach also said they talked to the manager again 30 minutes before showing up because they were running a little early. 300 patties is nothing when you have a half hour but when your manager waits until the order is in to tell you to cook it then tries to rush you without helping I quit. I made a big show of it too. I went up to the front where the guests were and when my manager saw me they began on me telling me to get back to the grill. I had already got a chance to ask them if they called ahead so I already knew my manager had notice so I loudly replied so everyone in the store could hear me "you had plenty of heads up for this yet you stayed quiet so if you want those patties cooked your going to do it or I quit." They just said "stop this nonsense and get back to work." I took off my work shirt and put it on the counter and went back to grab my back pack. Turns out the other workers had some of the same stuff happen to them and walked with me. I felt bad for the kid who was working the register because they had stayed alone with the manager. However they were lucky enough to be young enough to not be allowed to cook things and wasn't trained in the burger making processes.
Story #5... As a Domino's delivery driver I can confirm that this story although listed as a "big pizza franchise" is 100% Dominos. As soon as they said they were alone during rush with a makeline full of orders and an oven full of pizza, I knew. Chain corporations don't care about their people. It's like this at most Dominos.
My son worked for Dominos as a delivery driver. If business was slack he had to clean floors and toilets - not very hygienic imo. When you've got to handle the bags and boxes for delivery. And we all know people don't always wash their hands enough. He had a car accident - not related to his driving job - and was in hospital for 3 months then on crutches for 6 months. He suffered very serious injuries to both legs pelvis shoulder and spine and was in the operating theatre for 12 hours on the first day and 5 hours the following day. The sugeon said he might lose one of his legs and part of his buttock. He then got MRSA infection in his wounds -a very serious flesh eating bug. He then underwent several more operations over the next 12 months. Domino's never even enquired how he was or sent a get well card - NOTHING at all not even a phone call . Just shows what sort of company they are. They absolutely DO NOT CARE about their staff
@@Jan-sn5tk Can confirm. There was a hidden camera TV show where franchise owners and company bosses went incognito as "new employees". The Domino big boss was one of those. He came out as such an uncaring, flattery-seeking, bloody asshole (despite outrageous editting to try to make him look good, which was kind of the point of the shop) that upon watching that show I blacklisted Domino on the spot. The level of uncaring you mention is exactly what he publicly showed in that TV show. Hope your boy got well, and hope he got a better job.
I got a job with a covid task force. The place i was assigned to never opened up on the expected dates. I felt no sense of accomplishment but stayed at the time because the boss was a nice guy. He got relocated and was replaced with a rude person. The new boss was a former teacher and complete opposite of the old boss. She would Constantly stand in our way and watch over us during lunch break and yell at the office workers if they even said hi. The punch clock was a phone app but would get chewed out if we had phones on us. We also started carrying "decoy phones" (old phones we hid in the pocket and would hand them over in the morning). I was at the point of not being able to handle her sober. Last day I told her i was quitting and she was the exact reason why. I told her tomorrow is my last day. Found out a few months later she was on thin ice. Two people quit the next day, which forced her to clean until they got replacements and she became more nasty. Eventually no one wanted to work there even with a high starting wage. The company terminated their contract and she was jobless until school opened back up.
@commonsense 200 She had lost her job at the end of the 2020-21 year. (Her contract was not renewed due to being underperformed) Also, one of the security guards was a school officer who (took the office job as a summer gig). He had reported her for creating a toxic work environment
I walked out of my job of 13 years with no notice at the end of 2018 and never looked back. I realized how bad it really was after I left. I had experienced the "frog in hot water" scenario, and even though I knew it was bad, I didn't realize I was being boiled alive. I lived on savings for a few years while I helped my Dad with dementia. Then went back to work last year working from home in a very low stress job, for more pay.
I got a job working as a store manager for Dollar General early on in my management career, before I realized how horrible of a reputation they had for treating thier employees like slaves. I took over and mostly cleaned up a train wreck of a disorganized store that had a back room so clogged with stuff it wasn't funny, there were unopened boxes that had been back there for years full of products the store no longer even carried. I was almost but not all the way finished trying to get this store under control when the DM decided I was doing a great job and dropped a second store on me to clean up. This second one was seriously infested with mice and was about to be shut down by the board of health. So now I am trying to run and manage both stores at the same time, and the second one had no assistant manager or third key. That meant I was the only one that could unlock or lock the doors and had to be there at opening and closing time every day. Meantime the DM would not allow me to hire or promote anyone else into management to help with the second store, or have the assistant from the first store help cover the second. So I am now working 7 days a week all day long, and spending a ton of time and gas driving back and forth between these 2 trying to get everything done. The day the DM showed up and screamed at me for having "too much product claimed in damages" was the final straw for me. I had spent all day the day before hauling mouse infested bags of dog food to the dumpster as that is where they were living, eating, and breeding. There was no avoiding throwing this stuff out or claiming it as damaged, nobody wants to buy dog food bags that reek of mouse pee. The board of health had also been VERY explicit that they had been on the DM for too long about the mice already and that if the stuff wasn't gone when they inspected next they were shutting the store down as a public health risk. Despite that, she chose to SCREAM at me and write me up. We were at the first, and nicer of the two stores, standing by the cash registers when this happened. Also there were a casheir, the assistant manager, and a few customers. I literally just got so fed up I ran out of F's to give due to being nearly a month with no day off, dealing with toxic mouse waste, and I told the DM I was quitting and tried to hand them my keys. Her response? "I don't accept that. You can't quit"..... WTF? LADY are you for REAL? I tolld her her refusal to ACCEPT that I was quitting didn't mean it wasn't happening and when she still refused to take the keys I dropped them on the counter and walked out. This was plainly visible on the video cameras, you could see me offering the keys and then just dropping them. Meantime she decides to chase me into the parking lot, still screaming at me as I am attempting to leave, as if that would make me change my mind and want to stay. Later on, all HELL breaks loose. I guess she assumed my keys were picked up by the assistant, or else she just totally forgot to wonder what happened to them, i have no clue. All I know is that the assistant told me she walked away quickly and got "very busy in the back room, hoping the DM didn't come looking for her trying to promote her to my job" lol. I was told that the store video showed a small kid coming and picking the keys up off of the counter. Later on after the store closed, a lot of people had a field day looting the place. They figured out who the kid was, but the kid claimed they had dropped the keys again later on outside the store. Whoever was on video looting wasn't the kid, the kid wasn't giving any helpful information, the parents of the kid "weren't involved" and were verifiably somelace else when the store got robbed. The store had video cameras but no alarm system. The people looting it seemed to be aware of that. They were all wearing ski masks and using the back door. There was no video of whatever vehicle they were using/loading but there must have been several or a very big one because when the assistant showed up the next day to open, the place looked visibly looted. Meantime the second store never opened at all that morning because there was nobody to run it. So the corporate office started getting calls from people complaining the store was closed when it was supposed to be open, and were peeved that the DM hadn't even warned them there was an issue with management staffing. They were not pleased but at this point the blame looked to be on ME as the jerk. That is, until the police contacted them about the other store being robbed and looted and the facts came out that it had the same manager that had quit running both places, and it had been robbed because the DM had refused to accept and secure the keys. They were still trying to deal with the looting nightmare and sent a fill-in manager from another district to run the second place until a replacement could be found. Of course the DM told them nothing about the severity of the infestation or the coming inpection, so the new guy discovered the issue on his own but had unfortunately noticed the lack of dry dog food in the store and already ordered a bunch thinking they were just ran out. The health inspector comes by to check on progress sees more dry food being placed in the store after he specfically agreed with me to give it a bit mor etime strictly based on agreement to REMOVE all such product, and IMMEDIATELY gets p*ssed off and cites the store as a health hazzard and shuts it down. Within a week the DM got fired due to having one store get looted for tens of thousands of dollars of stuff and the other one closed by the board of health. The funny part? Both the assistant and I knew (or could guess), based on watching the security feed from the looting incident who several of the people were, but we both just shrugged and kept quiet. Cause F*ck DG and that DM. Worst place I have ever worked by far. Last I heard the DM was being held financially liable for the loss of products stolen and being sued for the lost income of the second store.
Don't worry. Karma is visiting them: they are expected to spend the next 2-3 years closing almost a THOUSAND stores nationwide. LOL... That can't be good. If they were making an average of $9-10K per store daily, that's a loss of almost NINE MILLION bucks a day!! Ouch.
I had a job in a chicken factory for 7 years operating the cardboards. I was always doing as I pleased knowing I'm such an important worker, but it got to a point where they put someone in charge of me that they knew everyone hates. When the bosses refused to take care of something that I needed to make it easy for all of us, I told them that they have a week (which was a vacation for the whole factory) to take care of it or else it gets messy without me. They were confident that I was replaceable by who they put in charge, but the day I stopped showing up, they wouldn't stop calling me and were begging me to come back but by then I had found a new job. The last time they called me was in spring 2019 after quitting in fall 2014. The manufacturing job that I found was shipped overseas and it was on the news, in fact it was announced from the first day I started working there but took 4 and semi years to make good their word.
@@frostfamily5321 In the chicken factory? I didn't submit notice, I gave them fair warning, I'm an autist who never moved out of home if that tells you anything
@@mason96575 To turkey and today the whole place is leveled waiting to be an extension to the shopping center opened in 1997 (while the factory was founded in 1958)
I applied as a server, at the time I was in college and do to the late nights servers have, they told me during and after break they’d put me on as a server. Not to mention, “the servers have to work as a host for a few months anyway so they can learn the tables.” Alright. Fast forward a few weeks and we have a new server, who doesn’t have to host, never worked at the spot. This happens about five times before break. The day comes and my boss starts avoiding me like the plague, hmmm, turns out she didn’t need anymore servers. Her justification for leaving me as a host, “I never said WHEN I’d do it.” Alright, you wanna play, let’s play. Fast forward to a freaking BUSY Friday night. We have 3 10-20+ parties as well as a full list. Our wait time was roughly 90 minutes. And we have 3 tables available, hmmm. Now’s my time to shine! I notify 6 parties (all 3 massive parties, and a few people who recently showed up. The 90 minute wait time they were told was reduced to 10.) I call a manager to the front, leave the host stand, clock out, and leave the building. What happened? I’m not sure. But with 40-60 people who didn’t have a table, along with the three parties who actually had room to be seated, and the customers who’d been waiting 30-80 minutes that just saw them get seated, I don’t imagine it was good. Oh! The icing on top? The cohost was my verbally abusive cheating ex. It was a great night.
Worked at a pizza shop, the work drama, people sleeping with each other got too much for me. My job was to make pizza dough and I waited till the days my kitchen manager wasn’t working, and just didn’t show up. I knew the other managers weren’t trained or cared enough to know how to make the pizza dough, so I can just imagine the managers freaking out knowing they have to make over 200 pizzas before the restaurant opens.
I got screwed over for a supervisor position. 10 years experience apparently means nothing. They gave it to a guy who bitched about not being supervisor cause he has a degree and felt entitled to it. I trained him in the position and he had only been with the company for 3 months when they gave him the position. He is extremely underqualified for the position. Slow, lacks personal and verbal interaction skills. I left and I've had so many people asking me to come back. The speed and swiftness I provided went out to pasture when i left.
I remember quitting my job as a safety officer in an industrial plant way back 2019. I was so unfortunate to be assigned to a crew of dudes that are so hardheaded I felt like I was taking care of grown ass children. I had to always raise my voice just to get their attention and they would secretly mock me for it. I never really get along with them as I was already suspended for 7 days with no pay after some of them went past me without me checking their safety equipment and they got caught by one of the security guards and reported the incident. I couldn't even pass the blame to anyone as it was my job to check their safety equipment but these MFs were so hardheaded that they thought it wouldn't be a big deal. I threatened them that if I resign, their job would also come to a stop and they would never be able to continue their work and get their salary until the company has found another safety officer and it may take months for them to have replacement officer since SO's have to train for months outside the plant in order to be qualified. I did resign because I realized that the amount of salary I get will never compensate the stress these men would give me daily. HR even offered to increase my salary because of their situation on the lack of safety officers during that time. I declined their offer and applied to a construction company that paid me almost 1.7 times my salary was before, and luckily I was assigned to a group of oldheaded construction workers that really knows what to do and they were easy to deal with.
I had a similar experience as SO for an independent contract crew working in the mining industry. There was 1 guy instigating the trouble. Prior to his hiring (he was a distant family member of the owners), the safety record was near perfect. I repeatedly requested his transfer or dismissal to no avail. I quit. They couldn't get on to the site without me, and it cost the company the contract. They begged me to return to work with the exact same crew. That was when I found out the idiot was family, and they refused to acknowledge that he was the problem. I last heard the company folded a couple of months after that.
Why would you try to fire people who have multiple years of experience only to hire people who don't know squat about what they're doing to save money that will cost you more money than it's worth
I was a truck driver for a really big trucking company in the US back in the '00s. The ones with the big orange trucks and trailers. My dispatcher retired and the new one that set me with a complete idiot that kept screwing up my dispatch orders. This got so bad that she sent me to the wrong state with a high-value load of plasma screen TVs. She tried to throw me under the bus for that one and when I proved that I did my job right she complained to her boss who declared to tell me that I 'should have known better' and told me i was being officially reprimanded for her mistake. My next run was going back the my home terminal anyway and when I dropped off my keys and quit. My dispatcher even had the gall to threaten me with a truck relocation fee (which is what you get if you just abandon a truck somewhere) but since I returned my truck to the depot they didn't have an argument.
I worked as a front desk/housekeeping manager at a privately owned hotel with all Amish employees. I worked alone on Sundays and the owner expected me to have 20 rooms cleaned by myself with no laundry crew or other housekeepers, then being Amish and it being the sabbath. He wouldn’t let me try to bring in more people. One day he told me he needed me to to better, and by told me I mean demanded. Two weeks later I had found another job so I kind of unloaded my frustration on him when he asked again. The hotel shut down two weeks later
#4 who would drive 4 hours to do a job? The only way I would ever agree to this kinda thing, would be if the commute time was recorded as working hours and milage was also added in
I did that for a while during a weird situation and it was great lol. I was working for Aldi, Inc right about the time when they started installing scanners in all their stores. I got paid VERY well to do the following weird routine: Drive to the next location to be installed, which could be several hours away from the one before it. I had to arrive prior to the store closing and was not paid for drive time. However that drive time was almost the only time during the day I was NOT on the clock lol. Once I arrived and the store closed I was just simply expected to "be in the building" while the company that installed the new cash wraps and registers did thier thing. I would just lock the doors with us all inside and generally go to sleep (and get paid to do so) while they worked overnight. In the morning I would inspect the work, sign thier tickets and unlock the doors to alow them to leave, and then train the opening cashiers and manager how to use the new equipment. Then I would leave and drive to the next store and spend the night there. I showered at gyms along the way, and ate takeout enroute between stores. I was getting a base pay of $15 to do this, but only up until 8 hours a day or 40 hours a week. Anything more than that was time and a half. Considering most days I was in a store for at least 16-18 hours a day, I was making fat bank. And I even got a few cents a mile gas reimbursement too. If you wanna pay me to sleep etc sure, I'll work as many hours and do as many stores as you want. I was quite content with not going home for weeks at a time and was very sad when the installs were all finished lol. Only time I have ever head of anyone feeling truly happy to be pretty much living at thier job.
I felt really bad but I once walked out on my boss because she refused to listen to anything I had to say. We were a four-person team working in a salon and she had made a horrible mistake of allowing some crappy corporate computer programmer talk her into this program that was not user friendly despite a free appointment booking program that was already on our computer that was perfectly fine. I tried to let her know that the new program was very tedious at times and it took twice as long to close out each client and if they wanted to use two different forms of payment I would literally have to open two different templates which made the computer look like we had more clients booked and it really messed up our numbers. She didn't listen she wanted to keep implementing all these different policies despite us not having the staff and one day I just told her I couldn't do it anymore. She also wanted me to do all of this for barely minimum wage and expected me to work 60 hours a week.
My shift early in the morning involved unloading a delivery truck full of produce, it was usually a 3 person job but this time management messed up and left me all alone to unload 13 PALLETS of produce I just helped the poor trucker unload the pallets then I noped the hell out. God knows how long it took them to sort that out, that day the produce section was a barren.
I saw a story that was hilarious. A company installed this thing on every system the company had access to. It made it so if an inappropriate image was sent, then both the recipient and the sender will be locked out from the whole system and cant get back in without external help. This one dude got fired for some bs reason, and as he walked out, he sent a picture over email to EVERY SINGLE PC IN THE WHOLE COMPANY. This tripped the system on every person's account, even the tech support's, effectively shutting doen the company.
I was an employee in a small office supply store. Every time someone left, the boss gave me the job. After 2 years, I was waiting on customers, ordering everything, and stocking the shelves. The more I did, the nastier the boss was to me. One day, I walked out. He had to hire 3 people to replace me.
I didn't quit. They "laid me off" due to covid. However, normally all the files were kept on paper. When we went to work from home, we had to compile them into PDF docs and save them to the company servers. It was annoying to do it after every process so I bundled them into one large folder and compiled them at the end of the month, after I was finished with my stuff and sitting around with nothing to do. Well, they let me go after I finished month end processes, but before I put everything onto the server. I don't know if they pulled the info off my computer or managed to remake everything. But I like to think they got their asses handed to them during the yearly audit
The Shoppers Drug Mart story is a great example of why every workplace needs a union. I'm a manager. I totally understand not wanting a new employee on night shifts. Night shift employees are observed less and you need people on the job you can trust to be self motivated. You don't know that about new employees yet. Thing is...as a worker thats not your problem. You're only responsible for your job and balancing it with the rest of your life. You have fundamentally different, and often opposed, goals to the management but without collective action the balance of power is too far on my side.
I actually despise unions, though I get where they come from. Currently though all the union's I've seen are just another arm of the corporate entity their supposed to help us stand against. The workers of my union went two times on strike in the last 5 years and both times I saw the same amount of gaslighting and fearmongering to get us back to work with little to no advantage or raises to do so.
I work at MacDonalds when I was about 20-21 years old. I have dyslexia and autism. It takes me time to learn a new skill, even in food prep, but when I get it I work hard and strictly follow protocol always. I would not make small talk, or tell jokes. I just did my job. There was some tall, blond a-hole, who wss only 19-20 and was a shift manager (or whatever the term was). He asked me inappropriate questions, made fun of me in front of workers and customers, and demanded I do things he would find amusing. My anger grew for weeks, under the surface, without me saying a word. One afternoon he was sitting in the lobby, not really doi g anything. He called me over and was teasing me and being a dick. He finally asked me to do something. I think it was to say the pledge of allegence in the middle of the bust lobby. He was egging me on. I had never done one of his bullshit demands, but had only ever just kept saying no. He would always laugh at me when I did this. Apparently I had enough. I pointed at time, and bellowed at him that he was a childish asshole and a terrible boss. I yelled "I quit" and walked out and walked home, still wearing my uniform. His face when I started screaming was shocked, and he said nothing as I left.
McDick's is always like that. Even in the 1990s, their management stank worse than dog poop under a hot sun. After a TERRIBLE month of working there in the 90s, I quit and probably eat at one of their restaurants once or twice a year. I'm serious. Their food is nothing special. As of January this year, I have yet to set foot in a McDick's.
A month ago i quit dollar general after 5 years because i couldn't make anything more than 75 cents past minimum wage. I quit right before inventory. They ended up closing for a few days because the couldn't handle the work. Im glad DG lost money for a few days.
My company had a contract to have an onsite tech (& 24/7 available tech support with 1 hour response) at the FBI and you had to have ton of clearance and it took 6 months to a year. The regular tech was at training and I had to cover for him, I was the only one who had completed it. I was onsite cover for the regular tech when the director heard me talking to a person in the lunch line and I said it was slow and I was studying my Windows NT book and playing a few game of solitaire to keep from going crazy. Next thing I knew, the man in front of me in line grabs me and start demanding to know who I was. I literally stepped back and made a fist, that how out of nowhere this was. I gave it to him, went back to my desk, and called my boss and told him. He said, I told you to baby set the system, study for the next certification and a few game of solitaire is not a problem. By the end of that day, I was escorted to my car to get my badge and parking pass and barred from coming back. Told my boss, he got a meeting the following week to plead the case for me to be allowed back onsite. While in the waiting room, I interviewed for my current job and turned in my 2 weeks notice while he was waiting. He walked in, told the FBI director that he treated me so badly, that I resigned and he had no support until the regular tech comes back in 4 weeks. I when was the customer and my old boss was now my vendor. I have been at that job for over 23 years and glad it happened.
Was working service industry during Covid and luckily it finished when my body decided to give out and a big cyst popped internally in the middle of afternoon rush dropping a lot of coffee and breaking a pot.... literally had to driven home...then they tried to expect a two week notice even tho I physically struggled to just use the bathroom let alone wear things round my waist, til it got somewhat better...
I worked at jersey mikes for about 2 years. All my other co workers had been there 3 or more. The main manager for 7. Corporate came in and said “I could fire any of you right now if I wanted because I have the power to do that.” I’ll never forget the look we all gave each other. After she left we shut down the store like we would when we close, locked all the doors behind us, put the key in its lockbox and went home never to return. Other employees who weren’t on the clock that day also quit and never went back.
I worked for Smears-Morebucks during the fall of '68 in the warehouse. I was a naval reservist and knew I was going on active duty in March so I wasn't surprised when they laid me off after Christmas, though I wasn't happy that they did it on New Years eve day. But what really earned my undying enmity was when they laid off a large number of salesman, installers, etc. who'd been with Sears some since the end of WWII. They were totally screwed out of their retirement. Some were rehired as contract workers or part time, but they'd already lost all their benefits. So over the next week as I finished my time, I took it upon myself to do as much damage as I could to appliances like washers, dryers, refrigerators, freezers, etc. My piece-de-resistance was dropping a dryer from a fork lift from about 8' up. My friend Rob who stayed on said they were still finding damaged items 3 months later; the damage was blamed on truckers and other handlers. I imagine that in '68 $ I probably did $3-4K damage. I never went back into Sears once after that and their collapse delights me no end.
Ok…need to ask though..the innocent customers who purchased those appliances, I hope u made it completely obvious they were destroyed, or else they would just pass the loss on to a regular person and refuse to help them. U know, make sure the poop doesn’t flow way too far down the hill
Not much. I was the Wednesday to Sunday closer, and worked alone for the last few hours of my shift daily. I quit on a Friday, leaving them shorthanded all weekend.
After college, I always worried about people's stories of getting replaced easily. Then I came up with a plan, I want to be the MVP Of the company and if they lose me they need to either have to call me back or need to hire at least 2 people to replace me. I'm still doing that. Besides the more involved you're the more new skills you can learn hence the more valuable you become. If they treat me wrong, imma just deuces!
Honestly, that's exactly what I did. I now know far too much to be able to be fired, which is also very stressful at times. As in, a few weeks ago, I was so stressed out that I was literally going to quit on the spot. I was handling 12 jobs that were not mine, had no time to do ANY of them, and no Supervisors were in on that Friday, so I was acting Supervisor for 2 whole divisions and was having to make decisions. What broke me was an employee asking if I was going to "come back" to a Supervisor position in their division... after the last one had run it into the ground in two years and then got a promotion. I broke. Anyway, I went home and for the second time in 19 years, I made a post about work on Facebook, this one massively scathing toward the entire organization. After a couple days, I took the post down, because I realized I was friends with people who were also friends with the people I was saying crap about, and I didn't want to deal with that during work hours. I got pulled into the office on the following Monday about it and they started reading me the riot act about what I could and could not post on Social Media and the moment I said it was only the second time I'd ever done so and that I was ready to quit the moment I walked into the office that morning and the only reason I hadn't that Friday was because there was nobody in office to give my resignation to... suddenly the tune changed and it was all about "how to fix things for me". For perspective, here's a lot of what I do: Random IT jobs for staff. Setting up computers, moving computer equipment around, hooking things up, troubleshooting program issues (not my job that I was hired to do). Creating and maintaining training materials for staff (not my job or why I was hired). Training all the staff (part of my actual job, but my other coworker who is meant to do training was banned from training as she is the reason a lot of our new employees quit). Creating and maintaining records of productivity for staff (not my job). Monitoring staff (not my job, and I don't have time to do it). Point of contact between my division and any other division, so everything has to go through me (my other coworker refuses to do this portion of the job, so it's mine). Acting Supervisor, even when current supervisor is actually there (not my job, but I was previously a Supervisor and dang good at it, so guess who gets to do it now?). Filling in for jobs when we're short-staffed. Creating and maintaining reports for our division (not my job) as well as distributing those reports to higher-ups (not my job). Answering questions any and all staff have at any given moment. Handling angry customers or complicated questions. Here's what I'm CURRENTLY working on: Actually creating a training protocol for new employees that I wanted to implement two years ago when I first started, but we decided to implement NOW after my coworker made a lot of new employees quit due to "poor training". Of which, I have no time to do, because I'm doing a lot of "answering questions" and "dealing with complicated customer issues". Granted, I do make like $22 an hour, but knowing a lot of things and being a very good worker CAN hurt you, if there's nothing in place to take some of the work off of you, or to expect the same of other employees as they expect of you. My bosses told me to give them until October to fix the issues. I said, "okay". So, we're gonna see how that goes.
@@mariuscatalin5982 much better. A lot of those jobs were stripped off of me. The coworker who was bad at training, quit after they started a review process for her. My job consists of filling in when the boss is gone, answering employee questions, dealing with angry customers, and helping to maintain the new training stuff we set up. It isn’t perfect, but it is a lot better.
Not me, but a coworker. She put in a one week notice and the office manager was pissed. My coworker said “I am only part time, so I’m giving one week instead of 2” The beyotch office manager said “well I’m not going to give you a good reference then”. The awesome part? My coworker said “ I already HAVE another job” and just walked out. 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Classic!!
I worked for my local Walmart until late 2020, I quit because management refused to listen to my concerns regarding the virus and not enforcing the mask policy on the customers. 3 months later I heard 30 employees caught covid. Smartest choice I ever made.
Not my story, but my mom's. Except, I was there to see it happen. My mom worked in a national park at canoe/kayak rentals. She spent her day in the lil shack near the shore, instructed customers, sometimes helped them get boats to the water and at the end of the day, cleaned up and and put back the boats that clients didn't put in the right places. 200lbs canoes and whatever. I helped her sometimes, cuz it was a really nice job, but it required a whole lot of effort! Well, she used to be paid 20$/hour the previous season. So she entirely expected to stay at that amount when the new season started, especially since her boss didn't say anything. A few weeks into the season, the high season starts, but it's super rainy and there's not many people. I go with her just to keep her company at this point and be able to sew in the calm of nature. But one day, I decide to bring one of my friends. I wanted to go on the lake with him, but we couldn't because of surprise thunderstorms. My mom has nothing to do, so she counts how much she received the previous week.... She is off a lot of money. She calls her boss. Turns out she had been at 16.50$ since the beginning of the season. I saw her pack her things, not even count the till and leave after the last customer came back. And no, the boss wasn't in financial difficulty. He had just bought 50k worth of brand new custom equipment. I spent hours with my mom reorganizing the PFD racks and carry brand new kayaks to the shore. Man was so fucking grredy and stupid, he had the three convenience stores in the park. He let them go, because they didn't make enough money or some shit. Of course they didn't make enough money, you sold mostly shit, candy and brand name crap. Only good thing was the coffee at one of the places. Never made that much coffee in my live before. Massively overpriced coffee. Even with the 50% employee discount it was overpriced. But hey, tourists don't always know what the money is worth..... So they didn't care. But they left lots of tip
Retail...Alone at 9pm with a line of people out the door trying to check out and another group asking questions while im checking people out. Took a deep breath reached in my pocket for my key after i finished this very nice womans bags and i walked into the back where the manager was chilling on her phone literally kicked back like she was at home I threw my key on the desk said nothing and left her with the entire line out of nowhere...it was 2 days till christmas im sure you can imagine the line.
I worked at a car wash for 2 years and finally became a team lead ..at first it was cool but as a team lead we had to push cars out at certain time but also make sure the teams cleaned it right..normally i can deal with 2 teams but on the busiest days during the summer the managers will leave me with 3-4 teams by myself while they take all the leads to our detail bay which i also complained that as a lead position i should learn detailing and learn how to be a washer(people in the front that puts soap on the car and uses the brush to quickly scrub) they kept bullshitting me my whole time and found out some co workers was talkin shit bout me so I decided not to show up
I quit Victoria Secret because the workers treated the shipment team like crap. And we would talk with the store manager about it, and especially me. But she took it as complaining. I quit at the heat at the moment when the shipment supervisor has been isolating me from everyone else and when I said something about it the store manager didn't believe me and I just quit in the middle of my shift.
For me: I used to work at a take-and-bake pizza place where we made a raw pizza, you took it home and cooked it in your own oven, it's a cool concept and the pizza's actually really good. The owner is a b*tch who yells most of the time at both employees and customers. I was the only employee she'd taught to do the cheese grating. So I'd come in 3 days a week (out of the 5 I worked) and do cheese for 90% of my shift. We're talking 10 lbs of cheese to a large plastic bin, usually in boxes of 40 lbs, and "logs" of 2 10 lbs blocks. I'd be grating upwards of 60 lbs of cheese a day that I did it. Well I eventually got tired of being yelled at for not getting cheese done when we'd have an unusually busy day that'd force me into helping on the make line, so I waited until the day before one of our busiest days (AKA the day I was to do cheese for the next day) and quit without notice. I enjoyed my time off and now get paid to take care of my disabled father.
I worked for a conpany that laid off a woman whom had been wirh the company for 25 years. Walked her ass out like she was there only 25 days. It was sad. I was with them for 10 years, handled hazmat, and other odd jobs that nobody else really had certification to handle. I called out sick for a few days then went back and gave them 3 hours notice for me to teain someone. Lol. I walked out right at 3 hours.
I worked at a paper plate factory. Horrible warehouse, turn over rates are ridiculous cause they don't know how to treat workers. Anyway I was running the 6 inches appetizer plates that night and this machine was fast it would spit out 5 stacks of plates at a time and you'd have to grab them put them in plastic bags and run them through a over to heat wrap them then boxes tape and send off down the line, but the machines speed was way to high for anyone to keep up with so I'd slow it down or stop it all together to catch up on the massive amount of plates plates piling up all around that machine. But the manager kept turning it back on and up to max speed telling me to go faster. So of course I let them plates continue to pile up as much I could then wrote I quit on a paper plate left it on my wrap station and walked away without turning off the machine by the time I made to gate at the front of the warehouse I looked back and plates had fallen over and kept piling up. The pile of plates was bigger than the machine was. Fux you ajm
I worked in a kitchen as a dishwasher and was REALLY good at it, I liked my job, I liked my boss, I disliked about 5 of my coworkers. 2 of them were friends and would either stand and do nothing in the middle of the rush. 1 of those 2 would walk away after ordering food (we could order anything that was a "loss leader") to eat in the cooler while myself and the others would keep working stopping everytime our hands were empty to eat 1 or 2 bites, but because we were out in the open and not hiding we would get in shit only to explain that we literally JUST stopped a second ago. Another coworker was just lazy, would refuse to work the scrub sink, was slow, etc. The last 2 (hostesses) were worse than stupid. They would grab someone else's order because they thought it was theirs, they would get snippy when we were unable to get their food done before other people who put in their orders first, the boss wants (they still work there) to get rid of them but both of them are friends of his wife. (My roommate works there still and is keeping me informed.) I quit in the middle of a rush after a shit ton of bad luck and fuck ups by the aforementioned coworkers. One of the first 2 talked shit and I almost knocked his ass out, but didn't because I still wanted to be welcome at the place because they have the best Greek food in my province.
When I first arrived back in the UK I took a job as a cleaner. Just for a couple of months before my benefits could begin and I could start to put my shattered psyche back together. I cleaned exceedingly well for a couple, they particularly loved that I took the dog hair out of the bathroom rug with my bare fingers. But they always had a dinner party beforehand so when I arrived there was a huge pile of washing up to do before I could star the actual cleaning. Which wasn't in the agreement to clean (informal/surely decency). The one thing I asked was that they leave me cash but they kept leaving a cheque - for a very small amount. Why did they never have any cash? When I finally was able to get temporary Govt support I went on my day to clean. They had had a party and left a cheque. So I dropped they keys through the letterbox, told them I was not going to clean any more. They would have come home to that and a disgustingly full sink and they deserved it.
working at dollar general I was called in at around 4 pm. I was asked when I could get there that I was needed ASAP. I told them I'd be there by 630. I showed up at 630 and got a bad attitude from the assistant manager saying it saw my fault she was working alone I told her off in front of the customers and went about my business. the funny part was her daughter in law was the manager who told me 630 was fine
Managers had to do service calls, lol. This is what happens when you let your staff lean on the competent workers, instead of learning how to do their jobs and work the store.
Was a kitchenhand at a restaurtant in my old hometown; worked part time, but was in pretty much every workday of the week, because I lived maybe a half hour's walk from the joint. Worked there for over 2 years and that was 2 years too many. Around this time, there was a bunch of new hires in the front of house section and everyone was off their shit, and they were especially lousy when it came to relaying info back to everyone in the kitchen, who was all pretty much senior staff - myself included. Being a dishbitch, you kinda have to take a lot of torment, but there were a lot of nights where I struggled by myself sometimes by the incompetence of the waitstaff. There's one night where I finally clean up and close the dishroom around about 11pm, head upstairs and about to clock off, only to have one of the new managers come on by and ask me to stay around, because an especially rowdy function upstairs they hosted is just about to finish and they were about to start bussing down everything. It's a function that's been going on for 4 hours and they've had 3 massive courses; entrees & everything. Apparently, none of the waitstaff could get in to bus anything downstairs to the dishroom, nor did they feel as though they wanted to tell anyone about it. I look him dead in the eye while at the time2work tablet by the staffroom wall, hit clock out and tell him that it's not something I can do off the clock and make my way home. The manager who asked me to stay back, as well as some other front of housers, end up staying behind to clean everything until it was 1 in the morning. I file a week's notice the very next day; not two weeks, a week. Two weeks would've been too generous for a company that kept treating me like ass. tl;dr treat your kitchenstaff right and they'll treat you right.
I worked in a factory. There was a crew of 8. We made consoles for the hummer. We didn't have many problems until the new company came in and took everyone off the job. Sixs months after they shut the g.m. line down for wrong labels. I will give you one guess how the supervisor kept her job. This cost the company thousands of dollars. So they kept the same people on the job. 5 months later someone put wrong labels again. After the company lost that job they started shutting down the factory.
I worked at a hotel as a housekeeper and the manager and laundry person were both stealing tips from my rooms. I caught them at it more than once and the manager was tight with the big boss, so there was nothing I could do. Well, I was offered a way better job closer to home about 8 months in and walked out not even halfway through my board. From what I heard, it was a real shit show. Lol
...my workmates and I survived years of not having a supervisor...we were very good. We finish everything early and have time to have fun in the office....the higher ups from the local management didnt like it. Screw ups from other departments are somehow blamed to us not having a supervisor....they gave us a supervisor who dont know shit about anything we do and likes being "strict". I couldnt stomach seeing her face and I quit. The account got dissolved 2 months after I left....they all got termination pay and I didnt 😢😢😢 but I kinda like my job now...i work at home hehehe
Prior to covid, as a recruiter, I put in multiple HR request to investigate the OSHA and health violation of a specific warehouse department which many of our staff were getting sick handling dirty return clothing. Specifically, the requirement to smell check unused clothing set back with used ones. That a case in NY was in open process with that very issue in mind. Also, that the managers with bilingual skills are being forced to refuse to speak any other languages despite staff and HR knowing those languages. This was an obvious legal discrimination policy due to moving in white manager without floor experience instead of promoting the bilingual staff and assistant managers. Immediately after I left due to series of discrimination and health concerns meetings with the whole HR department, covid hit. The white staff members all quit and the number 1 department no one wanted to work in was said department. It was the biggest "I fucking told you" moment of my life.
Am I the only one really bothered with those "flying motorcycle" videos? Idk, it doesn't flow well with the video, I like to read the subtitles while watching the video, and the ones with those gameplay background bothers me a lot. Not pleased: =[ Stills love the channel btw.
One manager at my company banged a new employee and got her pregnant. He protected her by promoting her to a position she has ZERO experience or training in.
I haven’t left yet but in a few weeks I know what’s going to happen. I’m completing all my open projects. However now that the wife is working in the office she is front facing. She can’t connect with people. That is a huge part of the job. Neither people have a clue how much I do a day. When I go they will loose their beep beep when they have to do it all on their own. I mean, marketing, office manager, all forms/paperwork, back/front office, correspondence, compliance, the list goes on and on. 😂 That’s what happens in the financial industry and you don’t take care of you workers… sayonara duckers!
I didn't leave in the heat of the moment, but arranged and executed a decently quick exit. I am a mechanic for UPS, and there are corporate standards for how many vehicles one should be responsible for, it was around 29. When I started, there were around 30 package cars (brown vans) and 12 semis (tractor trailers). Just me working on them. They moved all but four of the tractors out, then added a spare back, and increased the number of cars to 48 over the course of my five years there. So thats almost at the line of what two guys were supposed to be maxed out at. I worked ten hour days from Thanksgiving of 2019 until January of 2023, five to six days a week. It sucked. I was completely burnt out, and my marriage had already been a disaster, so my wife filed for divorce. As an anniversary present. I found a smaller center to transfer to, found housing for a good price, and within three months moved 1200 miles away. My old center is a disaster, my replacement only lasted a month, and now there's a hiring freeze. My old supervisor is a bit difficult to work with, which combined with the extreme workload makes it an almost impossible job.
They said I walked out of the job so this kind of fits but I was working for a fast food joint and our biggest problem? Seriously understaffed to the point there was ONLY one shift working from open to close. Put it this way but 11 to 12 hour shifts WITHOUT breaks were the norm. Well this fast food joint hired a manager from the job I actually jumped to take this one (cause quite frankly working a closing into a opening shift was burning me out). Well new job was too save it was through a crazy number of hours and I'm NOT as young as I used to be. Actually hired me as 'maintenance' which basically means I get the jobs no one else will do WHILE STILL doing all the cooking of a line cook. Well a new manager was hired actually from the very restraint I jumped... Lets just say this manager was VERY good at guilting people to work harder and longer than their schedule but the moment his shift ended? It's like magic as HE disappears! But physically? I was hitting my limit so I drew a red line. I'll work EXACTLY ten hours straight, not a minute more. New schedule comes out after I informed them. Got scheduled a 10.5 hour shift but hey? If I get a half-hour break? Good to go and if the close ends on time? Good to go but the underlined problem? Still short staffed and the closes usually go long too. Well that day? Didn't get a break and I punch out and went home at the ten hour mark right on the dot. Got 'released' immediately as I was told I quite by walking out of a scheduled shift and I said NO I DIDN'T, I already informed you that I will NOT work longer than ten hours straight and walking out before the close even began? NOT MY PROBLEM ANYMORE cause I was seriously sick of working PAST the scheduled close too. Well after I technically 'quit'? That new manager they hired? Gone less than two months later. I KNOW it burned the stores owners to lose a solid mark when keeping co-workers was hard to begin with. Later? The OWNERS fired EVERYONE and rehired a completely fresh crew. I think I would of been one of their few exceptions to keep because my work record spoke for itself but? I was starting to hit the wall. Thing is the crew I was working with just like me? Was holding on my a shoestring and I actually have to THANK my old manager from my old store because? I went back to my old store but at a much closer location to where I live and this crew? A BLAST to work with! Sometimes it's not the job that kills you but the very people you work with.
I just started a job, and my predecessor was the worst. Like, the kind of awful that should've gotten him fired and potentially arrested. Like, he didn't pay bills for six months.
I emailed my degree and my business name, I left on good terms I was also given 2 of my former clients. Now 2 of my former co workers actually work for me, as youth workers and counselling staff
i worked as a sales rep at a gym, and they wanted us to make 80 calls a day and a bunch of other shit like 5 sales also, yet the call list was 30% already enrolled,, 60% from out of state, and 10% that gave fake numbers. they started to get irritated with me, so i wrote on a piece of paper "gotta blast 🚀" and just walked out. still have the video too.
Place closed 8 months after i left...turns out my regulars were 30% of their income...i was a bartender manager... also 5 other ppl left when they found out i left ... also i left cause they wanted me to work hours i wasnt available( already worker 55 to 60 hours a week) AND demanded I took salary instead of 15 an hour plus tips... so wanted me to work 10 to 20 hours more a week for a 40% pay cut...nah bro
Story 9 dude should NOT have quit. He should have contacted USERRA. They absolutely don't fuck around with situations like that and OP could have got a small fortune in settlement costs.
I plan to quit my job without warning this christmas in order to work for myself. Im going to try my best to break my boss's morale with how much i leave.

Was fired for no reason. Escorted off the property. Called a buddy of mine. That taco bell was one of the busiest in my state. Was shut down by my buddy for 2 weeks. My buddy was the lead health inspector. I made it a point to show up the day my buddy shut it down . Said hi and shook his hand. Made plans to have a few drinks later. The look of sheer hatred on my former store manager and district manager. Priceless. They knew what I did. I knew what I did. But they couldn't prove it.
Buddy is the NVP
Unrelated, but your profile picture is from one of my favorite shows.
I gave away thousands of dollars worth of free printers after some VP was a jerk to me. Anyone that called up wanting anything from technical support to ink was my 1000'th costumer and got the best printer we had to offer.
Here is a legend
Yooo😂 your wild
One of our kitchen managers quit after being completely fckd over week after week. Days worth of prep left for him to try and get done in a few hours. Before he left, he switched all of the kitchen staff to $200 an hour. It will be at least a week before our GM will notice he wont be able to reverse it for the previous pay period
That kitchen manager is the goat
I had a store manager at the grocery store where I worked get fired, do the exact same thing (switch people in the computer to massive salaries before he left), and he ended up being arrested for fraudulent tampering with the company's computer system. I'm not sure what came of my old boss' arrest, but I hope your kitchen manager doesn't get in trouble.
I quit after a heated arguement with my Egyptian boss, I reported his ass to HR and mentioned something the boss said which started an internal investigation.
By the end of the investigation, authorites had to be called because he was illegaly in the country and was deported.
This was in the UK.
Damn bruh, you ain't halfta KILL him

Morale of the story: don’t under-appreciate your employees
Business owners literally can't function without employees unless they're going 100% solo.
There's a reason employees are usually the most expensive cost to a business: they're the factor that actually makes the business operate on a day to day function.
@@chuckchan4127 and thus employers should be treating their employees as more than just their assets to their business
It’s like they think they do all the work in the company.
Nah screw the grunts, the upper management is where the real work gets done, you know counting all the bills, paying all them. Who needs the grunts to get all the money and maintain the entire infrastructure in the first place?
Seriously middle management is the worst. Just there to find make work while anyone else with a working brain could do it.
Number 2 was my dad. But they had to hire 10 people to do his job. They werent willing to pay him more before retirement. Now they have a department with over a million dollars payroll just to do what he did 😅
Imagine them preferring that over just treating your dad with decency.
@bensoncheung2801 typical corporate shortsighteness. They think they can save a couple of bucks by screwing over 1 person, and up paying a lot more by having to find replacements.

Sounds a bit like what's about to happen with my dad, he works for a radio company and there really isn't a sacred hour they can't call him in to drive several hours to go fix someone else's mistake, he's working on trying to get a job at a different company where he can be on one week and off two.
He is their number one worker to my knowledge and I heard multiple co-workers compliment him on it, I have a feeling they'll need like three extra people to do what he does.
That was the inverse of the job he had for most of my life as I believe a house designer, where his boss kept taking away parts of his work because he thought he was pushing my dad too hard.
He left that job because he was tired of just sitting in a cubicle for hours with nothing to do, I heard that his boss had tried to increase his wages a ton to get him to stay.
No they didn't dip shit
I quit a job as a cook in a restaurant the manager was a real tyrant , but before I left I took pictures of all the filthy disgusting conditions in the kitchen the bathroom, dining area and walk in reefer . I gave all that to the health department two days later they were shut down and a month later there are business . And it was such a pleasure to go in and get my final check and after I had it in my hand I told the manager that I did this the color just washed out of his face .
So savage.
Niiiiiiice my resignation is not as funny but close enough.
I worked at loblaws here in canada one [f THE WORST employers in canada.
I worked as a cashier for 3 Fuckin years in those 3 years the manager a woman has done the following.
Overworked me on carts
When they hired me they made me the cart guy HATED the job so I would haul 12 small carts to the store and 8 -10 big ones for 3 years until I developed lower back pain . I told my manager i no longer want to haul carts this bitch goes"you cant pick and choose what tasks you can or cannot do". That was in 2021 Told the assistant store a manager one day in jan 2022 that I ve been doing this and the Front End Manager the bitch told me the reason. Assistant store manager goes"when was the last time you had this conversation i go last year ASM goes did she do anything i go no.
ASM goes this will be the last time you haul carts so i sucked it up one last time doing it. But the bitch manager FEM would take FUCKIN FOREVER finding a cart person literal months she would sit in her office for 8 hours doing schedules while I an breaking my back for this bitch and she dont give a fuck.
One time she trained a person on the customer service desk for 3 weeks first official shift on the customer service desk the newly trained guy has to train a girl who also wants to do the service desk.
One time the bitch would go on 4 vacations every year once in march june aug december
A lot more of this shit was going on but worse. But what finally drove me to say fuck it i m out was . In Aug 2022 i got a job start date was Sept 12 at a bank put in availability for one day a week bitch comes from vacation and wants me to work another day with the promise that if its not busy she will not book me to work. It was a lie from her teeth thanksgiving 2022 sunday before thanksgiving Friend of mi e calls me up saying come over lets play NBA 2K23 i m like sure. Called in sick for the first time in 3 years that day the saturday that followed thanksgiving bitch asks me why i called out i said i was sick bitch goes on to say i ve been here 3 years we need to count on you and says this you need to determine whether you want to be here or not. Giving me a ultimatium i begrudgingly said okay i ll stay she books me 3 weekends saturday and sunday in a row 3 weeks. I worked 2 weekends until it dawned on me that 3 years she treated me like trash insulted me and expects me to be loyal fuck that. I called in sick the following sunday. Now we head into November 2 weeks into it my favorite coworker a girl tells me its her last day and the bitch is giving her ultimatiums like me i told her how i was gonna miss her loved working with her among more my shift as 9-2 saturday bitch walks up to me that day at 11 and talks to me about why i am calling out i told her my reasons and she harshly goes you have to decide do you want to be here or not giving me another ultimatium. I wore a face mask cause i was sick but as she told me her ultimatium i was smiling cause i knew i was fuckin done.

Heres the best part my favorite coworker i messaged her on facebook following this calls it a legend move i could not agree more.
Lady Tyrell vibes right there. "It was ME!"
All the assistant managers quit, so I stepped up to fill the void to help the store keep runining at a Burger King (franchise)... this went on for several months, then my manager went on vacation so I was acting manager from open to close the entire time... about a week before the manager came back, the regional manager came by, I asked for a promotion to match my responibilities and was told "We cannot do that, you haven't taken the management test" so I asked to take it and was told "We cannot do that, the test is out of date. Deal with it. Just after that conversation a truck order came in, and the delivery guy ripped a handsink off the wall, so while the regional manager was sitting there on the floor getting sprayed in the face with water, I threw the store keys at him and quit on the spot. The regional manager had to cover the last week of the managers vacation. The manager asked me to return, and I said "Only if I get promoted." and was told "I checked on that and they will not allow it" so I said "Then I refuse your offer to return".
To clarify, I was making truck orders, processing payroll, making bank deposits, fireing people for failure to work, hiring new hires, opening the store and closing the store during that time. I set records for the drive through time at the store and employee moral was through the roof. But of course they couldn't promote me.
I probably would've retorted back after he asked to return and you asked for the promotion. After that, would've just been like "Then why in the balls did you ask me again, Idiot?"
They need to make these people think realllly hard about their relative positions lol
Skeet in his face!!
My story of quitting and leaving a mess to deal with. I used to work as a line cook for a fast food restaurant. One day a bus pulled into our parking lot and gave our manager a heads up that they were going to be getting roughly 300 cheese burgers and some other items. My manager knew about this 6 hours ahead of time and the coach also said they talked to the manager again 30 minutes before showing up because they were running a little early. 300 patties is nothing when you have a half hour but when your manager waits until the order is in to tell you to cook it then tries to rush you without helping I quit. I made a big show of it too. I went up to the front where the guests were and when my manager saw me they began on me telling me to get back to the grill. I had already got a chance to ask them if they called ahead so I already knew my manager had notice so I loudly replied so everyone in the store could hear me "you had plenty of heads up for this yet you stayed quiet so if you want those patties cooked your going to do it or I quit." They just said "stop this nonsense and get back to work." I took off my work shirt and put it on the counter and went back to grab my back pack. Turns out the other workers had some of the same stuff happen to them and walked with me. I felt bad for the kid who was working the register because they had stayed alone with the manager. However they were lucky enough to be young enough to not be allowed to cook things and wasn't trained in the burger making processes.
Story #5... As a Domino's delivery driver I can confirm that this story although listed as a "big pizza franchise" is 100% Dominos. As soon as they said they were alone during rush with a makeline full of orders and an oven full of pizza, I knew. Chain corporations don't care about their people. It's like this at most Dominos.
That's insane to me. I walk in to pick up a pizza from Dominos and there are always at least 3 people working in there. Sometimes up to 5
A fellow pizza maker I see. I remember those days alll too well
As a driver, i can 100 percent confirm with you that it's dominos. Though my store is properly managed by a reasonable person.
My son worked for Dominos as a delivery driver. If business was slack he had to clean floors and toilets - not very hygienic imo. When you've got to handle the bags and boxes for delivery. And we all know people don't always wash their hands enough. He had a car accident - not related to his driving job - and was in hospital for 3 months then on crutches for 6 months. He suffered very serious injuries to both legs pelvis shoulder and spine and was in the operating theatre for 12 hours on the first day and 5 hours the following day. The sugeon said he might lose one of his legs and part of his buttock. He then got MRSA infection in his wounds -a very serious flesh eating bug. He then underwent several more operations over the next 12 months. Domino's never even enquired how he was or sent a get well card - NOTHING at all not even a phone call . Just shows what sort of company they are. They absolutely DO NOT CARE about their staff
@@Jan-sn5tk Can confirm. There was a hidden camera TV show where franchise owners and company bosses went incognito as "new employees". The Domino big boss was one of those. He came out as such an uncaring, flattery-seeking, bloody asshole (despite outrageous editting to try to make him look good, which was kind of the point of the shop) that upon watching that show I blacklisted Domino on the spot. The level of uncaring you mention is exactly what he publicly showed in that TV show.
Hope your boy got well, and hope he got a better job.

I got a job with a covid task force. The place i was assigned to never opened up on the expected dates. I felt no sense of accomplishment but stayed at the time because the boss was a nice guy. He got relocated and was replaced with a rude person. The new boss was a former teacher and complete opposite of the old boss. She would Constantly stand in our way and watch over us during lunch break and yell at the office workers if they even said hi. The punch clock was a phone app but would get chewed out if we had phones on us. We also started carrying "decoy phones" (old phones we hid in the pocket and would hand them over in the morning). I was at the point of not being able to handle her sober. Last day I told her i was quitting and she was the exact reason why. I told her tomorrow is my last day. Found out a few months later she was on thin ice. Two people quit the next day, which forced her to clean until they got replacements and she became more nasty. Eventually no one wanted to work there even with a high starting wage. The company terminated their contract and she was jobless until school opened back up.
she probably got fired from teaching.
@commonsense 200 She had lost her job at the end of the 2020-21 year. (Her contract was not renewed due to being underperformed) Also, one of the security guards was a school officer who (took the office job as a summer gig). He had reported her for creating a toxic work environment
@@jamesbraun9842 she definitely should research her path, before filling out applications.
6:25 Story 8 Smart move by the manufacturer. Who better to hire as a service rep than a person who works with the equipment and knows its limitations?
I walked out of my job of 13 years with no notice at the end of 2018 and never looked back. I realized how bad it really was after I left. I had experienced the "frog in hot water" scenario, and even though I knew it was bad, I didn't realize I was being boiled alive.
I lived on savings for a few years while I helped my Dad with dementia. Then went back to work last year working from home in a very low stress job, for more pay.
Is your job still hiring? Also, good for you that everything worked out!
Good on you for waking up and leaving them in a stew. Glad you are feeling much better without all the stress.
I got a job working as a store manager for Dollar General early on in my management career, before I realized how horrible of a reputation they had for treating thier employees like slaves. I took over and mostly cleaned up a train wreck of a disorganized store that had a back room so clogged with stuff it wasn't funny, there were unopened boxes that had been back there for years full of products the store no longer even carried. I was almost but not all the way finished trying to get this store under control when the DM decided I was doing a great job and dropped a second store on me to clean up. This second one was seriously infested with mice and was about to be shut down by the board of health.
So now I am trying to run and manage both stores at the same time, and the second one had no assistant manager or third key. That meant I was the only one that could unlock or lock the doors and had to be there at opening and closing time every day. Meantime the DM would not allow me to hire or promote anyone else into management to help with the second store, or have the assistant from the first store help cover the second. So I am now working 7 days a week all day long, and spending a ton of time and gas driving back and forth between these 2 trying to get everything done. The day the DM showed up and screamed at me for having "too much product claimed in damages" was the final straw for me.
I had spent all day the day before hauling mouse infested bags of dog food to the dumpster as that is where they were living, eating, and breeding. There was no avoiding throwing this stuff out or claiming it as damaged, nobody wants to buy dog food bags that reek of mouse pee. The board of health had also been VERY explicit that they had been on the DM for too long about the mice already and that if the stuff wasn't gone when they inspected next they were shutting the store down as a public health risk. Despite that, she chose to SCREAM at me and write me up. We were at the first, and nicer of the two stores, standing by the cash registers when this happened. Also there were a casheir, the assistant manager, and a few customers.
I literally just got so fed up I ran out of F's to give due to being nearly a month with no day off, dealing with toxic mouse waste, and I told the DM I was quitting and tried to hand them my keys. Her response? "I don't accept that. You can't quit"..... WTF? LADY are you for REAL? I tolld her her refusal to ACCEPT that I was quitting didn't mean it wasn't happening and when she still refused to take the keys I dropped them on the counter and walked out. This was plainly visible on the video cameras, you could see me offering the keys and then just dropping them. Meantime she decides to chase me into the parking lot, still screaming at me as I am attempting to leave, as if that would make me change my mind and want to stay.
Later on, all HELL breaks loose. I guess she assumed my keys were picked up by the assistant, or else she just totally forgot to wonder what happened to them, i have no clue. All I know is that the assistant told me she walked away quickly and got "very busy in the back room, hoping the DM didn't come looking for her trying to promote her to my job" lol. I was told that the store video showed a small kid coming and picking the keys up off of the counter. Later on after the store closed, a lot of people had a field day looting the place. They figured out who the kid was, but the kid claimed they had dropped the keys again later on outside the store. Whoever was on video looting wasn't the kid, the kid wasn't giving any helpful information, the parents of the kid "weren't involved" and were verifiably somelace else when the store got robbed. The store had video cameras but no alarm system. The people looting it seemed to be aware of that. They were all wearing ski masks and using the back door. There was no video of whatever vehicle they were using/loading but there must have been several or a very big one because when the assistant showed up the next day to open, the place looked visibly looted.
Meantime the second store never opened at all that morning because there was nobody to run it. So the corporate office started getting calls from people complaining the store was closed when it was supposed to be open, and were peeved that the DM hadn't even warned them there was an issue with management staffing. They were not pleased but at this point the blame looked to be on ME as the jerk. That is, until the police contacted them about the other store being robbed and looted and the facts came out that it had the same manager that had quit running both places, and it had been robbed because the DM had refused to accept and secure the keys. They were still trying to deal with the looting nightmare and sent a fill-in manager from another district to run the second place until a replacement could be found. Of course the DM told them nothing about the severity of the infestation or the coming inpection, so the new guy discovered the issue on his own but had unfortunately noticed the lack of dry dog food in the store and already ordered a bunch thinking they were just ran out. The health inspector comes by to check on progress sees more dry food being placed in the store after he specfically agreed with me to give it a bit mor etime strictly based on agreement to REMOVE all such product, and IMMEDIATELY gets p*ssed off and cites the store as a health hazzard and shuts it down.
Within a week the DM got fired due to having one store get looted for tens of thousands of dollars of stuff and the other one closed by the board of health. The funny part? Both the assistant and I knew (or could guess), based on watching the security feed from the looting incident who several of the people were, but we both just shrugged and kept quiet. Cause F*ck DG and that DM. Worst place I have ever worked by far. Last I heard the DM was being held financially liable for the loss of products stolen and being sued for the lost income of the second store.
I was never a manager for DG but I did work there for a year and all I gotta say is: fuck that place 😂
Don't worry. Karma is visiting them: they are expected to spend the next 2-3 years closing almost a THOUSAND stores nationwide. LOL... That can't be good. If they were making an average of $9-10K per store daily, that's a loss of almost NINE MILLION bucks a day!! Ouch.
What a glorious train wreck.
I had a job in a chicken factory for 7 years operating the cardboards. I was always doing as I pleased knowing I'm such an important worker, but it got to a point where they put someone in charge of me that they knew everyone hates. When the bosses refused to take care of something that I needed to make it easy for all of us, I told them that they have a week (which was a vacation for the whole factory) to take care of it or else it gets messy without me. They were confident that I was replaceable by who they put in charge, but the day I stopped showing up, they wouldn't stop calling me and were begging me to come back but by then I had found a new job. The last time they called me was in spring 2019 after quitting in fall 2014. The manufacturing job that I found was shipped overseas and it was on the news, in fact it was announced from the first day I started working there but took 4 and semi years to make good their word.

Moral of all these stories - look after your staff and they look after your business. Happy staff = thriving business
I applied as a server, at the time I was in college and do to the late nights servers have, they told me during and after break they’d put me on as a server. Not to mention, “the servers have to work as a host for a few months anyway so they can learn the tables.” Alright. Fast forward a few weeks and we have a new server, who doesn’t have to host, never worked at the spot. This happens about five times before break. The day comes and my boss starts avoiding me like the plague, hmmm, turns out she didn’t need anymore servers. Her justification for leaving me as a host, “I never said WHEN I’d do it.” Alright, you wanna play, let’s play.
Fast forward to a freaking BUSY Friday night. We have 3 10-20+ parties as well as a full list. Our wait time was roughly 90 minutes. And we have 3 tables available, hmmm. Now’s my time to shine! I notify 6 parties (all 3 massive parties, and a few people who recently showed up. The 90 minute wait time they were told was reduced to 10.) I call a manager to the front, leave the host stand, clock out, and leave the building. What happened? I’m not sure. But with 40-60 people who didn’t have a table, along with the three parties who actually had room to be seated, and the customers who’d been waiting 30-80 minutes that just saw them get seated, I don’t imagine it was good. Oh! The icing on top? The cohost was my verbally abusive cheating ex. It was a great night.
Worked at a pizza shop, the work drama, people sleeping with each other got too much for me. My job was to make pizza dough and I waited till the days my kitchen manager wasn’t working, and just didn’t show up. I knew the other managers weren’t trained or cared enough to know how to make the pizza dough, so I can just imagine the managers freaking out knowing they have to make over 200 pizzas before the restaurant opens.
I got screwed over for a supervisor position. 10 years experience apparently means nothing. They gave it to a guy who bitched about not being supervisor cause he has a degree and felt entitled to it. I trained him in the position and he had only been with the company for 3 months when they gave him the position. He is extremely underqualified for the position. Slow, lacks personal and verbal interaction skills. I left and I've had so many people asking me to come back. The speed and swiftness I provided went out to pasture when i left.
It's weird how many bosses seem to treat critical employees like shit.
I remember quitting my job as a safety officer in an industrial plant way back 2019. I was so unfortunate to be assigned to a crew of dudes that are so hardheaded I felt like I was taking care of grown ass children. I had to always raise my voice just to get their attention and they would secretly mock me for it. I never really get along with them as I was already suspended for 7 days with no pay after some of them went past me without me checking their safety equipment and they got caught by one of the security guards and reported the incident. I couldn't even pass the blame to anyone as it was my job to check their safety equipment but these MFs were so hardheaded that they thought it wouldn't be a big deal. I threatened them that if I resign, their job would also come to a stop and they would never be able to continue their work and get their salary until the company has found another safety officer and it may take months for them to have replacement officer since SO's have to train for months outside the plant in order to be qualified.
I did resign because I realized that the amount of salary I get will never compensate the stress these men would give me daily. HR even offered to increase my salary because of their situation on the lack of safety officers during that time. I declined their offer and applied to a construction company that paid me almost 1.7 times my salary was before, and luckily I was assigned to a group of oldheaded construction workers that really knows what to do and they were easy to deal with.
I had a similar experience as SO for an independent contract crew working in the mining industry.
There was 1 guy instigating the trouble. Prior to his hiring (he was a distant family member of the owners), the safety record was near perfect.
I repeatedly requested his transfer or dismissal to no avail.
I quit. They couldn't get on to the site without me, and it cost the company the contract.
They begged me to return to work with the exact same crew.
That was when I found out the idiot was family, and they refused to acknowledge that he was the problem.
I last heard the company folded a couple of months after that.
If someone offers you CENTS to come back, you laugh in their face.

I was a truck driver for a really big trucking company in the US back in the '00s. The ones with the big orange trucks and trailers. My dispatcher retired and the new one that set me with a complete idiot that kept screwing up my dispatch orders. This got so bad that she sent me to the wrong state with a high-value load of plasma screen TVs. She tried to throw me under the bus for that one and when I proved that I did my job right she complained to her boss who declared to tell me that I 'should have known better' and told me i was being officially reprimanded for her mistake.
My next run was going back the my home terminal anyway and when I dropped off my keys and quit.

I worked as a front desk/housekeeping manager at a privately owned hotel with all Amish employees. I worked alone on Sundays and the owner expected me to have 20 rooms cleaned by myself with no laundry crew or other housekeepers, then being Amish and it being the sabbath.

#4 who would drive 4 hours to do a job? The only way I would ever agree to this kinda thing, would be if the commute time was recorded as working hours and milage was also added in
I did that for a while during a weird situation and it was great lol. I was working for Aldi, Inc right about the time when they started installing scanners in all their stores. I got paid VERY well to do the following weird routine: Drive to the next location to be installed, which could be several hours away from the one before it. I had to arrive prior to the store closing and was not paid for drive time. However that drive time was almost the only time during the day I was NOT on the clock lol. Once I arrived and the store closed I was just simply expected to "be in the building" while the company that installed the new cash wraps and registers did thier thing. I would just lock the doors with us all inside and generally go to sleep (and get paid to do so) while they worked overnight.
In the morning I would inspect the work, sign thier tickets and unlock the doors to alow them to leave, and then train the opening cashiers and manager how to use the new equipment. Then I would leave and drive to the next store and spend the night there. I showered at gyms along the way, and ate takeout enroute between stores. I was getting a base pay of $15 to do this, but only up until 8 hours a day or 40 hours a week. Anything more than that was time and a half. Considering most days I was in a store for at least 16-18 hours a day, I was making fat bank. And I even got a few cents a mile gas reimbursement too. If you wanna pay me to sleep etc sure, I'll work as many hours and do as many stores as you want. I was quite content with not going home for weeks at a time and was very sad when the installs were all finished lol. Only time I have ever head of anyone feeling truly happy to be pretty much living at thier job.

I felt really bad but I once walked out on my boss because she refused to listen to anything I had to say. We were a four-person team working in a salon and she had made a horrible mistake of allowing some crappy corporate computer programmer talk her into this program that was not user friendly despite a free appointment booking program that was already on our computer that was perfectly fine. I tried to let her know that the new program was very tedious at times and it took twice as long to close out each client and if they wanted to use two different forms of payment I would literally have to open two different templates which made the computer look like we had more clients booked and it really messed up our numbers. She didn't listen she wanted to keep implementing all these different policies despite us not having the staff and one day I just told her I couldn't do it anymore. She also wanted me to do all of this for barely minimum wage and expected me to work 60 hours a week.

My shift early in the morning involved unloading a delivery truck full of produce, it was usually a 3 person job but this time management messed up and left me all alone to unload 13 PALLETS of produce I just helped the poor trucker unload the pallets then I noped the hell out. God knows how long it took them to sort that out, that day the produce section was a barren.
I saw a story that was hilarious.

I didn't quit. They "laid me off" due to covid. However, normally all the files were kept on paper. When we went to work from home, we had to compile them into PDF docs and save them to the company servers. It was annoying to do it after every process so I bundled them into one large folder and compiled them at the end of the month, after I was finished with my stuff and sitting around with nothing to do. Well, they let me go after I finished month end processes, but before I put everything onto the server. I don't know if they pulled the info off my computer or managed to remake everything. But I like to think they got their asses handed to them during the yearly audit
The Shoppers Drug Mart story is a great example of why every workplace needs a union. I'm a manager. I totally understand not wanting a new employee on night shifts. Night shift employees are observed less and you need people on the job you can trust to be self motivated. You don't know that about new employees yet.
Thing is...as a worker thats not your problem. You're only responsible for your job and balancing it with the rest of your life. You have fundamentally different, and often opposed, goals to the management but without collective action the balance of power is too far on my side.
I actually despise unions, though I get where they come from. Currently though all the union's I've seen are just another arm of the corporate entity their supposed to help us stand against. The workers of my union went two times on strike in the last 5 years and both times I saw the same amount of gaslighting and fearmongering to get us back to work with little to no advantage or raises to do so.
Unions are cancer
I would have stripped off the uniform right there and handed it to him. Screw public decency, I'm PO'd
I work at MacDonalds when I was about 20-21 years old. I have dyslexia and autism. It takes me time to learn a new skill, even in food prep, but when I get it I work hard and strictly follow protocol always. I would not make small talk, or tell jokes. I just did my job. There was some tall, blond a-hole, who wss only 19-20 and was a shift manager (or whatever the term was). He asked me inappropriate questions, made fun of me in front of workers and customers, and demanded I do things he would find amusing. My anger grew for weeks, under the surface, without me saying a word. One afternoon he was sitting in the lobby, not really doi g anything. He called me over and was teasing me and being a dick. He finally asked me to do something. I think it was to say the pledge of allegence in the middle of the bust lobby. He was egging me on. I had never done one of his bullshit demands, but had only ever just kept saying no. He would always laugh at me when I did this. Apparently I had enough. I pointed at time, and bellowed at him that he was a childish asshole and a terrible boss. I yelled "I quit" and walked out and walked home, still wearing my uniform. His face when I started screaming was shocked, and he said nothing as I left.
McDick's is always like that. Even in the 1990s, their management stank worse than dog poop under a hot sun. After a TERRIBLE month of working there in the 90s, I quit and probably eat at one of their restaurants once or twice a year. I'm serious. Their food is nothing special. As of January this year, I have yet to set foot in a McDick's.
@@largol33t12 I totally agree!
I quit my job at a restaurant because they were changing the rules too frequently. The place got closed down a few months later.
A month ago i quit dollar general after 5 years because i couldn't make anything more than 75 cents past minimum wage. I quit right before inventory. They ended up closing for a few days because the couldn't handle the work. Im glad DG lost money for a few days.
My company had a contract to have an onsite tech (& 24/7 available tech support with 1 hour response) at the FBI and you had to have ton of clearance and it took 6 months to a year. The regular tech was at training and I had to cover for him, I was the only one who had completed it. I was onsite cover for the regular tech when the director heard me talking to a person in the lunch line and I said it was slow and I was studying my Windows NT book and playing a few game of solitaire to keep from going crazy. Next thing I knew, the man in front of me in line grabs me and start demanding to know who I was. I literally stepped back and made a fist, that how out of nowhere this was. I gave it to him, went back to my desk, and called my boss and told him. He said, I told you to baby set the system, study for the next certification and a few game of solitaire is not a problem. By the end of that day, I was escorted to my car to get my badge and parking pass and barred from coming back. Told my boss, he got a meeting the following week to plead the case for me to be allowed back onsite. While in the waiting room, I interviewed for my current job and turned in my 2 weeks notice while he was waiting. He walked in, told the FBI director that he treated me so badly, that I resigned and he had no support until the regular tech comes back in 4 weeks. I when was the customer and my old boss was now my vendor. I have been at that job for over 23 years and glad it happened.
0:25 if you go back and the same people are still working there would love to see their reactions lmfao
Was working service industry during Covid and luckily it finished when my body decided to give out and a big cyst popped internally in the middle of afternoon rush dropping a lot of coffee and breaking a pot.... literally had to driven home...then they tried to expect a two week notice even tho I physically struggled to just use the bathroom let alone wear things round my waist, til it got somewhat better...

I worked at jersey mikes for about 2 years. All my other co workers had been there 3 or more. The main manager for 7. Corporate came in and said “I could fire any of you right now if I wanted because I have the power to do that.” I’ll never forget the look we all gave each other. After she left we shut down the store like we would when we close, locked all the doors behind us, put the key in its lockbox and went home never to return. Other employees who weren’t on the clock that day also quit and never went back.
I worked for Smears-Morebucks during the fall of '68 in the warehouse. I was a naval reservist and knew I was going on active duty in March so I wasn't surprised when they laid me off after Christmas, though I wasn't happy that they did it on New Years eve day. But what really earned my undying enmity was when they laid off a large number of salesman, installers, etc. who'd been with Sears some since the end of WWII. They were totally screwed out of their retirement. Some were rehired as contract workers or part time, but they'd already lost all their benefits. So over the next week as I finished my time, I took it upon myself to do as much damage as I could to appliances like washers, dryers, refrigerators, freezers, etc. My piece-de-resistance was dropping a dryer from a fork lift from about 8' up. My friend Rob who stayed on said they were still finding damaged items 3 months later; the damage was blamed on truckers and other handlers. I imagine that in '68 $ I probably did $3-4K damage. I never went back into Sears once after that and their collapse delights me no end.
Ok…need to ask though..the innocent customers who purchased those appliances, I hope u made it completely obvious they were destroyed, or else they would just pass the loss on to a regular person and refuse to help them. U know, make sure the poop doesn’t flow way too far down the hill
Not much. I was the Wednesday to Sunday closer, and worked alone for the last few hours of my shift daily. I quit on a Friday, leaving them shorthanded all weekend.
After college, I always worried about people's stories of getting replaced easily. Then I came up with a plan, I want to be the MVP Of the company and if they lose me they need to either have to call me back or need to hire at least 2 people to replace me. I'm still doing that. Besides the more involved you're the more new skills you can learn hence the more valuable you become. If they treat me wrong, imma just deuces!
Honestly, that's exactly what I did. I now know far too much to be able to be fired, which is also very stressful at times.
As in, a few weeks ago, I was so stressed out that I was literally going to quit on the spot. I was handling 12 jobs that were not mine, had no time to do ANY of them, and no Supervisors were in on that Friday, so I was acting Supervisor for 2 whole divisions and was having to make decisions. What broke me was an employee asking if I was going to "come back" to a Supervisor position in their division... after the last one had run it into the ground in two years and then got a promotion. I broke. Anyway, I went home and for the second time in 19 years, I made a post about work on Facebook, this one massively scathing toward the entire organization.
After a couple days, I took the post down, because I realized I was friends with people who were also friends with the people I was saying crap about, and I didn't want to deal with that during work hours.
I got pulled into the office on the following Monday about it and they started reading me the riot act about what I could and could not post on Social Media and the moment I said it was only the second time I'd ever done so and that I was ready to quit the moment I walked into the office that morning and the only reason I hadn't that Friday was because there was nobody in office to give my resignation to... suddenly the tune changed and it was all about "how to fix things for me".
For perspective, here's a lot of what I do:
Random IT jobs for staff. Setting up computers, moving computer equipment around, hooking things up, troubleshooting program issues (not my job that I was hired to do).
Creating and maintaining training materials for staff (not my job or why I was hired).
Training all the staff (part of my actual job, but my other coworker who is meant to do training was banned from training as she is the reason a lot of our new employees quit).
Creating and maintaining records of productivity for staff (not my job).
Monitoring staff (not my job, and I don't have time to do it).
Point of contact between my division and any other division, so everything has to go through me (my other coworker refuses to do this portion of the job, so it's mine).
Acting Supervisor, even when current supervisor is actually there (not my job, but I was previously a Supervisor and dang good at it, so guess who gets to do it now?).
Filling in for jobs when we're short-staffed.
Creating and maintaining reports for our division (not my job) as well as distributing those reports to higher-ups (not my job).
Answering questions any and all staff have at any given moment.
Handling angry customers or complicated questions.
Here's what I'm CURRENTLY working on:
Actually creating a training protocol for new employees that I wanted to implement two years ago when I first started, but we decided to implement NOW after my coworker made a lot of new employees quit due to "poor training". Of which, I have no time to do, because I'm doing a lot of "answering questions" and "dealing with complicated customer issues".
Granted, I do make like $22 an hour, but knowing a lot of things and being a very good worker CAN hurt you, if there's nothing in place to take some of the work off of you, or to expect the same of other employees as they expect of you.
My bosses told me to give them until October to fix the issues. I said, "okay". So, we're gonna see how that goes.
@@XxTaiMTxXany update?
@@mariuscatalin5982 much better. A lot of those jobs were stripped off of me. The coworker who was bad at training, quit after they started a review process for her. My job consists of filling in when the boss is gone, answering employee questions, dealing with angry customers, and helping to maintain the new training stuff we set up.
It isn’t perfect, but it is a lot better.
Not me, but a coworker. She put in a one week notice and the office manager was pissed. My coworker said “I am only part time, so I’m giving one week instead of 2” The beyotch office manager said “well I’m not going to give you a good reference then”. The awesome part? My coworker said “ I already HAVE another job” and just walked out. 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Classic!!
I always wondered how all these managers get their jobs.
brown nosing or nepotism. pick your poison
Some were decent and let the power go to thier head.

I worked for my local Walmart until late 2020, I quit because management refused to listen to my concerns regarding the virus and not enforcing the mask policy on the customers. 3 months later I heard 30 employees caught covid. Smartest choice I ever made.
Not my story, but my mom's. Except, I was there to see it happen.
My mom worked in a national park at canoe/kayak rentals. She spent her day in the lil shack near the shore, instructed customers, sometimes helped them get boats to the water and at the end of the day, cleaned up and and put back the boats that clients didn't put in the right places. 200lbs canoes and whatever. I helped her sometimes, cuz it was a really nice job, but it required a whole lot of effort!
Well, she used to be paid 20$/hour the previous season. So she entirely expected to stay at that amount when the new season started, especially since her boss didn't say anything. A few weeks into the season, the high season starts, but it's super rainy and there's not many people. I go with her just to keep her company at this point and be able to sew in the calm of nature. But one day, I decide to bring one of my friends. I wanted to go on the lake with him, but we couldn't because of surprise thunderstorms.
My mom has nothing to do, so she counts how much she received the previous week.... She is off a lot of money. She calls her boss. Turns out she had been at 16.50$ since the beginning of the season. I saw her pack her things, not even count the till and leave after the last customer came back.
And no, the boss wasn't in financial difficulty. He had just bought 50k worth of brand new custom equipment. I spent hours with my mom reorganizing the PFD racks and carry brand new kayaks to the shore. Man was so fucking grredy and stupid, he had the three convenience stores in the park. He let them go, because they didn't make enough money or some shit. Of course they didn't make enough money, you sold mostly shit, candy and brand name crap. Only good thing was the coffee at one of the places. Never made that much coffee in my live before. Massively overpriced coffee. Even with the 50% employee discount it was overpriced. But hey, tourists don't always know what the money is worth..... So they didn't care. But they left lots of tip
Retail...Alone at 9pm with a line of people out the door trying to check out and another group asking questions while im checking people out. Took a deep breath reached in my pocket for my key after i finished this very nice womans bags and i walked into the back where the manager was chilling on her phone literally kicked back like she was at home I threw my key on the desk said nothing and left her with the entire line out of nowhere...it was 2 days till christmas im sure you can imagine the line.
You're the best narrator of these type of videos. Thanks for not constantly giving your opinion.
I worked at a car wash for 2 years and finally became a team lead ..at first it was cool but as a team lead we had to push cars out at certain time but also make sure the teams cleaned it right..normally i can deal with 2 teams but on the busiest days during the summer the managers will leave me with 3-4 teams by myself while they take all the leads to our detail bay which i also complained that as a lead position i should learn detailing and learn how to be a washer(people in the front that puts soap on the car and uses the brush to quickly scrub) they kept bullshitting me my whole time and found out some co workers was talkin shit bout me so I decided not to show up
I quit Victoria Secret because the workers treated the shipment team like crap. And we would talk with the store manager about it, and especially me. But she took it as complaining. I quit at the heat at the moment when the shipment supervisor has been isolating me from everyone else and when I said something about it the store manager didn't believe me and I just quit in the middle of my shift.
Two-Face: “…Did…did that just happen?”
For me: I used to work at a take-and-bake pizza place where we made a raw pizza, you took it home and cooked it in your own oven, it's a cool concept and the pizza's actually really good. The owner is a b*tch who yells most of the time at both employees and customers. I was the only employee she'd taught to do the cheese grating. So I'd come in 3 days a week (out of the 5 I worked) and do cheese for 90% of my shift. We're talking 10 lbs of cheese to a large plastic bin, usually in boxes of 40 lbs, and "logs" of 2 10 lbs blocks. I'd be grating upwards of 60 lbs of cheese a day that I did it.
Well I eventually got tired of being yelled at for not getting cheese done when we'd have an unusually busy day that'd force me into helping on the make line, so I waited until the day before one of our busiest days (AKA the day I was to do cheese for the next day) and quit without notice. I enjoyed my time off and now get paid to take care of my disabled father.
I worked for a conpany that laid off a woman whom had been wirh the company for 25 years. Walked her ass out like she was there only 25 days. It was sad. I was with them for 10 years, handled hazmat, and other odd jobs that nobody else really had certification to handle. I called out sick for a few days then went back and gave them 3 hours notice for me to teain someone. Lol. I walked out right at 3 hours.
I worked at a paper plate factory. Horrible warehouse, turn over rates are ridiculous cause they don't know how to treat workers. Anyway I was running the 6 inches appetizer plates that night and this machine was fast it would spit out 5 stacks of plates at a time and you'd have to grab them put them in plastic bags and run them through a over to heat wrap them then boxes tape and send off down the line, but the machines speed was way to high for anyone to keep up with so I'd slow it down or stop it all together to catch up on the massive amount of plates plates piling up all around that machine. But the manager kept turning it back on and up to max speed telling me to go faster. So of course I let them plates continue to pile up as much I could then wrote I quit on a paper plate left it on my wrap station and walked away without turning off the machine by the time I made to gate at the front of the warehouse I looked back and plates had fallen over and kept piling up. The pile of plates was bigger than the machine was. Fux you ajm
Treating your employees like trash is the fastest way to kill your performance. You can't act like you own people and expect them to deal with it.
#8, @6:24, can’t cure stupid. Max capacity is max capacity. 😂 Awesome story.
Story 8 I was so expecting you to be the one sent in to fix it 🤣
I worked in a kitchen as a dishwasher and was REALLY good at it, I liked my job, I liked my boss, I disliked about 5 of my coworkers.
2 of them were friends and would either stand and do nothing in the middle of the rush. 1 of those 2 would walk away after ordering food (we could order anything that was a "loss leader") to eat in the cooler while myself and the others would keep working stopping everytime our hands were empty to eat 1 or 2 bites, but because we were out in the open and not hiding we would get in shit only to explain that we literally JUST stopped a second ago.
Another coworker was just lazy, would refuse to work the scrub sink, was slow, etc.
The last 2 (hostesses) were worse than stupid. They would grab someone else's order because they thought it was theirs, they would get snippy when we were unable to get their food done before other people who put in their orders first, the boss wants (they still work there) to get rid of them but both of them are friends of his wife. (My roommate works there still and is keeping me informed.)
I quit in the middle of a rush after a shit ton of bad luck and fuck ups by the aforementioned coworkers. One of the first 2 talked shit and I almost knocked his ass out, but didn't because I still wanted to be welcome at the place because they have the best Greek food in my province.
I like the idea at the end of story 1
I call BS on the Walmart one. They NEVER give OT. If you even get 15 minutes of OT you get a write up.
When I first arrived back in the UK I took a job as a cleaner. Just for a couple of months before my benefits could begin and I could start to put my shattered psyche back together. I cleaned exceedingly well for a couple, they particularly loved that I took the dog hair out of the bathroom rug with my bare fingers. But they always had a dinner party beforehand so when I arrived there was a huge pile of washing up to do before I could star the actual cleaning. Which wasn't in the agreement to clean (informal/surely decency). The one thing I asked was that they leave me cash but they kept leaving a cheque - for a very small amount. Why did they never have any cash? When I finally was able to get temporary Govt support I went on my day to clean. They had had a party and left a cheque. So I dropped they keys through the letterbox, told them I was not going to clean any more. They would have come home to that and a disgustingly full sink and they deserved it.
working at dollar general I was called in at around 4 pm. I was asked when I could get there that I was needed ASAP. I told them I'd be there by 630. I showed up at 630 and got a bad attitude from the assistant manager saying it saw my fault she was working alone I told her off in front of the customers and went about my business. the funny part was her daughter in law was the manager who told me 630 was fine
Story 13 sounds like my old English teacher, like almost exactly.
Managers had to do service calls, lol. This is what happens when you let your staff lean on the competent workers, instead of learning how to do their jobs and work the store.
Was a kitchenhand at a restaurtant in my old hometown; worked part time, but was in pretty much every workday of the week, because I lived maybe a half hour's walk from the joint. Worked there for over 2 years and that was 2 years too many. Around this time, there was a bunch of new hires in the front of house section and everyone was off their shit, and they were especially lousy when it came to relaying info back to everyone in the kitchen, who was all pretty much senior staff - myself included. Being a dishbitch, you kinda have to take a lot of torment, but there were a lot of nights where I struggled by myself sometimes by the incompetence of the waitstaff.
There's one night where I finally clean up and close the dishroom around about 11pm, head upstairs and about to clock off, only to have one of the new managers come on by and ask me to stay around, because an especially rowdy function upstairs they hosted is just about to finish and they were about to start bussing down everything. It's a function that's been going on for 4 hours and they've had 3 massive courses; entrees & everything. Apparently, none of the waitstaff could get in to bus anything downstairs to the dishroom, nor did they feel as though they wanted to tell anyone about it. I look him dead in the eye while at the time2work tablet by the staffroom wall, hit clock out and tell him that it's not something I can do off the clock and make my way home.
The manager who asked me to stay back, as well as some other front of housers, end up staying behind to clean everything until it was 1 in the morning.
I file a week's notice the very next day; not two weeks, a week. Two weeks would've been too generous for a company that kept treating me like ass.
tl;dr treat your kitchenstaff right and they'll treat you right.
Never give two weeks notice! It helps them ! Not you!
I worked in a factory. There was a crew of 8. We made consoles for the hummer. We didn't have many problems until the new company came in and took everyone off the job. Sixs months after they shut the g.m. line down for wrong labels. I will give you one guess how the supervisor kept her job. This cost the company thousands of dollars. So they kept the same people on the job. 5 months later someone put wrong labels again. After the company lost that job they started shutting down the factory.
I worked at a hotel as a housekeeper and the manager and laundry person were both stealing tips from my rooms. I caught them at it more than once and the manager was tight with the big boss, so there was nothing I could do. Well, I was offered a way better job closer to home about 8 months in and walked out not even halfway through my board. From what I heard, it was a real shit show. Lol
Thanks now i have that song stuck in my head.
He screwed over this guy offers him a measly 50 cent raise the only way I would return to a job that crappy as it they gave me Triple my annual salary
I also used to work at a Walmart, so I can believe that story about the deli supervisor.
imagine calling someone bgging them to comback by give 50 cent raise. these employers are entitled as fuck
Lunch Rush, McDonalds, that is all.
That place is slave labor for real
A higher labor cost. They needed 5 people to replace me.
...my workmates and I survived years of not having a supervisor...we were very good. We finish everything early and have time to have fun in the office....the higher ups from the local management didnt like it. Screw ups from other departments are somehow blamed to us not having a supervisor....they gave us a supervisor who dont know shit about anything we do and likes being "strict".
I couldnt stomach seeing her face and I quit. The account got dissolved 2 months after I left....they all got termination pay and I didnt 😢😢😢
but I kinda like my job now...i work at home hehehe
Prior to covid, as a recruiter, I put in multiple HR request to investigate the OSHA and health violation of a specific warehouse department which many of our staff were getting sick handling dirty return clothing. Specifically, the requirement to smell check unused clothing set back with used ones. That a case in NY was in open process with that very issue in mind. Also, that the managers with bilingual skills are being forced to refuse to speak any other languages despite staff and HR knowing those languages. This was an obvious legal discrimination policy due to moving in white manager without floor experience instead of promoting the bilingual staff and assistant managers. Immediately after I left due to series of discrimination and health concerns meetings with the whole HR department, covid hit. The white staff members all quit and the number 1 department no one wanted to work in was said department. It was the biggest "I fucking told you" moment of my life.
Am I the only one really bothered with those "flying motorcycle" videos? Idk, it doesn't flow well with the video, I like to read the subtitles while watching the video, and the ones with those gameplay background bothers me a lot.
Not pleased: =[
Stills love the channel btw.
I quit just before the managers were having a gigantic wedding that I was going to take care of at a hotel
Christ some of these managers are something else
One manager at my company banged a new employee and got her pregnant. He protected her by promoting her to a position she has ZERO experience or training in.
I haven’t left yet but in a few weeks I know what’s going to happen. I’m completing all my open projects. However now that the wife is working in the office she is front facing. She can’t connect with people. That is a huge part of the job. Neither people have a clue how much I do a day. When I go they will loose their beep beep when they have to do it all on their own. I mean, marketing, office manager, all forms/paperwork, back/front office, correspondence, compliance, the list goes on and on. 😂 That’s what happens in the financial industry and you don’t take care of you workers… sayonara duckers!
I didn't leave in the heat of the moment, but arranged and executed a decently quick exit. I am a mechanic for UPS, and there are corporate standards for how many vehicles one should be responsible for, it was around 29. When I started, there were around 30 package cars (brown vans) and 12 semis (tractor trailers). Just me working on them. They moved all but four of the tractors out, then added a spare back, and increased the number of cars to 48 over the course of my five years there. So thats almost at the line of what two guys were supposed to be maxed out at. I worked ten hour days from Thanksgiving of 2019 until January of 2023, five to six days a week. It sucked. I was completely burnt out, and my marriage had already been a disaster, so my wife filed for divorce. As an anniversary present.
I found a smaller center to transfer to, found housing for a good price, and within three months moved 1200 miles away. My old center is a disaster, my replacement only lasted a month, and now there's a hiring freeze. My old supervisor is a bit difficult to work with, which combined with the extreme workload makes it an almost impossible job.
They said I walked out of the job so this kind of fits but I was working for a fast food joint and our biggest problem? Seriously understaffed to the point there was ONLY one shift working from open to close. Put it this way but 11 to 12 hour shifts WITHOUT breaks were the norm. Well this fast food joint hired a manager from the job I actually jumped to take this one (cause quite frankly working a closing into a opening shift was burning me out). Well new job was too save it was through a crazy number of hours and I'm NOT as young as I used to be. Actually hired me as 'maintenance' which basically means I get the jobs no one else will do WHILE STILL doing all the cooking of a line cook. Well a new manager was hired actually from the very restraint I jumped... Lets just say this manager was VERY good at guilting people to work harder and longer than their schedule but the moment his shift ended? It's like magic as HE disappears! But physically? I was hitting my limit so I drew a red line. I'll work EXACTLY ten hours straight, not a minute more. New schedule comes out after I informed them. Got scheduled a 10.5 hour shift but hey? If I get a half-hour break? Good to go and if the close ends on time? Good to go but the underlined problem? Still short staffed and the closes usually go long too. Well that day? Didn't get a break and I punch out and went home at the ten hour mark right on the dot. Got 'released' immediately as I was told I quite by walking out of a scheduled shift and I said NO I DIDN'T, I already informed you that I will NOT work longer than ten hours straight and walking out before the close even began? NOT MY PROBLEM ANYMORE cause I was seriously sick of working PAST the scheduled close too.
Well after I technically 'quit'? That new manager they hired? Gone less than two months later. I KNOW it burned the stores owners to lose a solid mark when keeping co-workers was hard to begin with. Later? The OWNERS fired EVERYONE and rehired a completely fresh crew. I think I would of been one of their few exceptions to keep because my work record spoke for itself but? I was starting to hit the wall. Thing is the crew I was working with just like me? Was holding on my a shoestring and I actually have to THANK my old manager from my old store because? I went back to my old store but at a much closer location to where I live and this crew? A BLAST to work with! Sometimes it's not the job that kills you but the very people you work with.
Hell, I stayed at a couple jobs that were breaking my body (in fact still at 2nd) because of who I work with.
I just started a job, and my predecessor was the worst. Like, the kind of awful that should've gotten him fired and potentially arrested. Like, he didn't pay bills for six months.

i worked as a sales rep at a gym, and they wanted us to make 80 calls a day and a bunch of other shit like 5 sales also, yet the call list was 30% already enrolled,, 60% from out of state, and 10% that gave fake numbers. they started to get irritated with me, so i wrote on a piece of paper "gotta blast 🚀" and just walked out. still have the video too.
