Story 3: I worked in retail for a while - some customers were unbearable but I'd never have made such a nasty and disrespectful remark about someone who was quietly buying something and not causing any trouble. At least OP finally learned some manners - too bad it took something like that for her to learn them but better late than never.
@@boogiebear3095 Thanks for your comment. I'm sorry to hear they are like that where you are as there's really no need for it. I hope things improve for you, by the way, in the coming year and I hope it lifts. All the best.
Yeah, she messed up, she also owns it in the story. A guy in that situation should complain or leave a Facebook review, not threaten someone's life! There's just no excuse for that, and that's on him.
My first job as a teenager was at a major grocery chain. I was a shy individual who'd never been around a bunch of people before but I was optimistic. I can definitely say that grocery chains are one of the worst customer service jobs. The amount of verbal abuse I endured regularly was insane.
I worked with the public in customer service for around 15 years. It was stressful, frustrating, humbling, dangerous, disgusting, hilarious, and taught me more about life than any teacher or family member ever could. I think everyone should work a full year of it before they go out into the world. It will prepare you for life and probably make you more compassionate and hopefully a kinder person.
Story 3: yes the guy over reacted and shouldn't have tried to run OP down but he was returning a car seat which means he could have lost a baby recently. You never know what people are going through and she's honestly horrible and shouldn't be working anywhere near customers and should have lost her job period
@@epicmagikarp1 you're either an idiot or someone who would tell a customer they needed the money to get high. Either way you shouldn't be in customer service if you think she didn't do anything wrong
I'd love to hear a rashomon version of Story 4 told from the "boy employee" side of the story, where he tells a horror story of the entitled lady who keeps coming into his work trying to get him in trouble. No matter what he does to smooth things out, she takes everything the wrong way and wants to call the police on him constantly.
Watch a story pop up about a young boy (underage) who gets stalked by a psycho older woman trying to take revenge on him for playing a practical/immature joke on her and even stalks him at his new work place.
Oh man! That guy who cashed his check at walmart: I can't believe how loudly those folks count out your cash!! The two times a relative wired me money to help with rent I was like, "How about it you just hang a damn sign around my neck that says, 'Carrying Two Thousand Dollars and All Alone.'" It was kind of funny, but also kind of insane!
I'm sure the guy exaggerated that. Maybe not intentionally, he was worried about it so he just thought the workers were calling attention to it. Because there's no way an employee would go, "LOOK AT ALL THIS GUY'S MONEY!"
Says the wealthy owners. Of course, they're not around to absorb the anger when something free gets replaced with a paid alternative (my store started charging for gravy and certain condiments)
That's not what that phrase means. It means that if customers decided that they wanted product Y instead of product X, stores would stock less of product X and more of product Y to make more sales. It's about the products customers want, not about other demands they may make.
You DO NOT do that to someone, unless you've asked 🤦♀️ and after the remark the person made, they've got some nerve to do that. It's also unprofessional to do that at your job, because of the fact that you don't know that person or their child, AND you don't know how they'll react. Not everyone is going to be all hunky dory about a stranger, who has already come off creepy previously making quite a dark remark toward children, would be, instead of bringing the child back to the parent, randomly had them in a cart pushing them around. Especially in this day and age, it's hard not to be overprotective over little ones. Then to threaten her at his other place of employment, yeah she's a Karen alright 🙄 he wasn't at all out of line for any of it 🤦♀️
Ngl that last story confused me towards the end 😂 “I could care less what happens to her at this point.” *A little while later* “I only hope someone is there to look after her.” *AND THEN* “You can probably guess my wishes for her”
I agree, based on all responses here, there is no point even expecting society to care about someone who repeatedly crosses boundaries...just kick their ass, because THAT is all they value, themselves. Hope he left kids alone after these encounters, but probably not.
Exactly I was annoyed about that entire story!! The kid was working and maybe shouldn’t have pushed your child around but stop being weird and having a “catch up” session in the middle of the store with your child bored as hell in that cart. I’m sure he was safer with that kid that WORKED THERE than with an actual stranger no one can hold accountable. And the audacity to be afraid of someone when YOU purposefully had them fired. He was minding his business getting another job like a responsible person does and you happened to be there, feel threatened by your Conscience and want to call the cops on him. Smfh annoying story👎
That was the scariest story of them all when thinking of it from the point of view of the young man. Would love to get that kid’s version of the story.
Snacks✅ wine✅settling in for a great evening with Joel’s wonderful voice narrating these CSR horror stories whilst cuddling my cat✅✅✅ have a great weekend everyone!
Ahh I have a story myself Very long story short this guy had cut me off on the highway, then kept breakchecking me. I pass him to get around and he proceeded to follow me to my job for 15+ miles. Once I actually got to the outdoor mall I worked at during the time, I thought I lost him. As I’m walking in, he pulls up, tired to grab me not realizing I had video, smacked my phone out my hand and ran off We we’re able to identify the guy by the end of the day dude to a license plate, a very clear video with his face, social media, and people working together. Over a year later (fairly recently actually), dude went to court and was charged with multiple different things including assault & stalking.
Love listening to these while at work, it's depressing here specially cause I work alone, these stories always help me keep my work pace and my mental state at ease. Great work my guy
Or true racism towards white women!! Wtf! Call out the nationalities or slang words to the guys that hold up their pants with one hand and the gun with the other
of course the guy is gonna be pissed off when you make a joke about him returning something for drug money jfc. don't work in customer service or retail if you're going to be so rude. same with the person smirking at the customer, though i will say the woman had no right attacking the worker.
Thank You!!!!!! Then the fact that the employee admitted that this is not the first time they've been rude to the customer, shows me what a jerk they are. Too bad the car missed!!
Don’t worry. In the food industry we’d never stoop so low to say anything under our breath in front of you on the floor. We keep it courteous; We vent it with our full chest in the kitchen…
I think they were both in the wrong, that guy shouldn't have made that creepy comment about her kids or have pushed her kid in the stroller without asking, but she completely overreacted like a Karen. She should have just ignored his initial comment instead of calling his manager and getting him fired, and also she should have been paying better attention to her kid in the second instance. And her going to the police was completely unnecessary
@@claireelizabeth9431 she didn’t really overreact tbh 🤷 he’s a weirdo, i can see maybe he didnt initially want to cause trouble but its just innapripriate
Stop the racism towards whites women. Call out the guy who holds his pants up with one hand n the gun with another. Call out the nationalities of every assailant
He literally took her kid and strolled around with them without any permission. I’d be concerned about her child’s safety if she wasn’t angry about that.
Y'all must not be parents. What gives him the right to go near her child?! I would have beaten his ass. He's lucky that didn't happen to him. How can you call her a "Karen" for protecting her child?
@@darthlardian566 she left her child alone in the aisle, idk if thats "protective" behavior tbh. that, and her getting him introuble for a joke was pretty lame
On a lighter note in ref to story 3, you would have those 2 days off if you were fired. Every cloud has a silver lining see! Every time I was fired for various reasons in my youth I went on a 3 or 4 day bender (getting right on it) some of the best party times of my life ha ha!
Absolutely, Let's Read should do a whole video of stories where the antagonist is Karen. There are plenty of videos like that on TH-cam, but they're comedy. Give us horror!
This feed is great. I thought the ceiling fan was then funniest one ive heard. I'm pretty sure that the worst that wouldn't happened isn't bad headache. Unless somehow you have metal or titanium blades they will just bust apart or stop. There generally madenof thin wood or laminate.
Great topic!! And we get to see both sides. Working with the public can be stressful, but some of this is just crazy. But the woman who yelled about the guy having a lot of money at Wal-Mart? Come on!! Common sense would tell you to never do that.
Most of the people in these stores seem to have brought the problems on themselves. The person in the first story was totally rude, and had some strange superiority complex. Same with story #3! They had already been in trouble many times for bad behavior with customers, so that says everything. Both of them made asshole comments, or smirked, and then decided to act all offended when the person got upset. 🙄 Then you have the person in story #4.. 😬 I’ve already seen lots of comments on that one, and I completely agree. Lol
I was thinking the same thing about the woman who got the kid fired and he went to another store to work and then she was afraid he'd go after her ....it really didn't seem that serious
@@sandralee8855 he literally made a joke about her baby dying and then started pushing a cart with her child in it without her knowing and then threatened her, he’s lucky she wasn’t the type to beat his ass
@@chambersstreetproductions the things he said was dark yes...but her fearing for her life staying in for a month no...if other things happened like she was running into him everywhere or she was getting phone calls I could see being that afraid
The lady in story #4 is ridiculous. A restraining order? On what grounds? YOU came to HIS place of WORK. Yeah, it's unfortunate she ran into him again but getting the police involved is too much.
On getting threatened and him pushing her child around in a store without any permission. Who the Hell thinks it’s appropriate to make any contact with a kid you don’t know unless said kid is in danger? You could easily argue that she overreacted you the joke he initially made, that’s fair, but everything beyond that justifies some fear and paranoia.
Hey Joel...it's Amy (A VERY VERY BIG FAN OF YOURS) I LITERALLY listen to your channel every single day/night and would just THRILL ME if you would do a "TRUE CRIME OF THE STATE OF OHIO" OR ANOTHER ONE " ADDICTION HORROR STORIES" I just LOVE YOUR CHANNEL KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK 😁
I came to the comments to see if anybody had mentioned story four and I was pleasantly surprised. I have worked retail for almost a year and a half now (I’m only 19) but my first job I worked consistently for a year. I don’t want to seem self absorbed but I am a very very VERY sweet person. I always made sure to treat my customers with respect and I had a lot of patience. Sometimes I would make a joke or make remarks that weren’t meant to be taken negatively but they were. Story four was a prime example of when people don’t know how to stop. I don’t think he should’ve been pushing her kid around cause even that would’ve made me uncomfortable, but she overreacted. I mean, I had a man try to get me fired because I didn’t know the difference between nectarines and oranges on my first day working a register by myself. People like this exist and if you work retail, do not be afraid to stand up for yourself. 7/10 your employer will understand depending on the circumstance. If they don’t, I beg you, please try to find a new job. I also understand not everyone has the luxury of just finding a new job, but NOBODY should have to come to work worried that they’re going to lose their job because someone misinterpreted what they said. It’s a sad sad world man.
@@digitalphi he didn’t make a joke about hanging a baby he made a joke stating that she wouldn’t want one of her babies to get hurt. If she didn’t like the joke she should’ve dropped it, I seriously doubt he meant any harm. I mean he is a teenage boy and as mighty as the older generations act they really cannot take a joke sometimes. Im seriously putting all cards in the table, betting she fabricated the story to make herself look better cause the way she worded things was just weird.

Story 3 straight up did that to themselves. Simply can't feel bad for em. Hell, created problems for their coworkers, too.

@@jackspring7709 thought it was a dude
@@jackspring7709 also the guy was returning something
Working with the public really teaches you how dumb and rude a lot of people are. Customer service and working retail absolutely suck
I second that!

@@tablescissors Yeah, by the guy who was standing RIGHT BEHIND HIM

Whoever said "the customer is always right" was a fool
Says the wealthy owners. Of course, they're not around to absorb the anger when something free gets replaced with a paid alternative (my store started charging for gravy and certain condiments)
Sad part is I agree with the customer and also buy a lot of my own lunches at the same counter! But of course, nothing I can do about it.
I've heard so many customer service/retail horror stories and they've made me see that the customer is "not always right".
That's not what that phrase means. It means that if customers decided that they wanted product Y instead of product X, stores would stock less of product X and more of product Y to make more sales. It's about the products customers want, not about other demands they may make.
Money
As someone who has worked quite a few customer service jobs this is a brilliant idea for a video!
Me too! I have a politics and economics degree and a master's in management but I love my current job.
That first story would have landed me in jail. No way in hell would I allow a customer to slap me without retaliation.
💯 woulda wrestled her
Exactly 💯
Huge facts . I said that out loud lol
Right!! These wuss stories are so weird.
Right I wish I would crawl scared to the back. We would've had to tussle that day. Could care less if I lose my job.

“I could care less what happens to her at this point.”

He literally took her kid and strolled around with them without any permission. I’d be concerned about her child’s safety if she wasn’t angry about that.
Karens sure can be as scary as a skinwalker
That's true! At least there's ways to avoid or repel a skin walker..
This is why I kept "protection" on me when I worked at a certain grocery store. You never know when you need to "deal with" someone.

WOW, these stories are crazy ... I don't even wanna imagine what will happen, when the alleged "supply shortages" of food etc fully show!
Pure unadulterated chaos.

Yeah, we've already experienced a little bit of this in 2020, when everybody hamstered 🚽 paper.
Love this channel 🥰
The fourth story made me laugh cause that woman just, goodness me she’s a true Karen
“Keep yourself safe, from the Karens” 😂😂
"Karen" you were not the victim.. 🙄 😒this time either
Fantastic let's read ty for that 👌👌👌
Here for the Karen comments.
Calling a white woman karen is racist! Why not call out the guy that holds up his pants with one hand and the gun with another
Customer service is already an everyday horror story for a lot of people. Myself included.
You have really unique video selections
Thanks Joel. Night guys.
love ur video dude!. the 4th story what a karen
Loved this topic
This feed is great. I thought the ceiling fan was then funniest one ive heard. I'm pretty sure that the worst that wouldn't happened isn't bad headache. Unless somehow you have metal or titanium blades they will just bust apart or stop. There generally madenof thin wood or laminate.
Great topic!! And we get to see both sides. Working with the public can be stressful, but some of this is just crazy.
But the woman who yelled about the guy having a lot of money at Wal-Mart? Come on!! Common sense would tell you to never do that.
Beer, let's read, and I'm off work tomorrow. Best night I've had in a while
Most of the people in these stores seem to have brought the problems on themselves. The person in the first story was totally rude, and had some strange superiority complex. Same with story #3! They had already been in trouble many times for bad behavior with customers, so that says everything. Both of them made asshole comments, or smirked, and then decided to act all offended when the person got upset. 🙄 Then you have the person in story #4.. 😬 I’ve already seen lots of comments on that one, and I completely agree. Lol
I was thinking the same thing about the woman who got the kid fired and he went to another store to work and then she was afraid he'd go after her ....it really didn't seem that serious
@@sandralee8855 he literally made a joke about her baby dying and then started pushing a cart with her child in it without her knowing and then threatened her, he’s lucky she wasn’t the type to beat his ass
Yeah, story 3 was ridiculous.
@@chambersstreetproductions the things he said was dark yes...but her fearing for her life staying in for a month no...if other things happened like she was running into him everywhere or she was getting phone calls I could see being that afraid
how does releasing a smirk (first story) make it ok that they were attacked by a customer? the mental gymnastics..
About the second story with the customer service story: Jesus… a lot of these situations would have been avoided if people have better boundaries.
Exactly what i was thinking.
The lady in story #4 is ridiculous. A restraining order? On what grounds? YOU came to HIS place of WORK. Yeah, it's unfortunate she ran into him again but getting the police involved is too much.
On getting threatened
On getting threatened and him pushing her child around in a store without any permission. Who the Hell thinks it’s appropriate to make any contact with a kid you don’t know unless said kid is in danger? You could easily argue that she overreacted you the joke he initially made, that’s fair, but everything beyond that justifies some fear and paranoia.
Hey Joel...it's Amy (A VERY VERY BIG FAN OF YOURS) I LITERALLY listen to your channel every single day/night and would just THRILL ME if you would do a "TRUE CRIME OF THE STATE OF OHIO" OR ANOTHER ONE " ADDICTION HORROR STORIES" I just LOVE YOUR CHANNEL KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK 😁
Very enjoyable thanks 👍
another night for a new story, always waiting on them
I came to the comments to see if anybody had mentioned story four and I was pleasantly surprised. I have worked retail for almost a year and a half now (I’m only 19) but my first job I worked consistently for a year. I don’t want to seem self absorbed but I am a very very VERY sweet person. I always made sure to treat my customers with respect and I had a lot of patience. Sometimes I would make a joke or make remarks that weren’t meant to be taken negatively but they were. Story four was a prime example of when people don’t know how to stop. I don’t think he should’ve been pushing her kid around cause even that would’ve made me uncomfortable, but she overreacted. I mean, I had a man try to get me fired because I didn’t know the difference between nectarines and oranges on my first day working a register by myself. People like this exist and if you work retail, do not be afraid to stand up for yourself. 7/10 your employer will understand depending on the circumstance. If they don’t, I beg you, please try to find a new job. I also understand not everyone has the luxury of just finding a new job, but NOBODY should have to come to work worried that they’re going to lose their job because someone misinterpreted what they said. It’s a sad sad world man.
what kind of psycho makes a joke about a hanging baby though 😐
@@digitalphi he didn’t make a joke about hanging a baby he made a joke stating that she wouldn’t want one of her babies to get hurt. If she didn’t like the joke she should’ve dropped it, I seriously doubt he meant any harm. I mean he is a teenage boy and as mighty as the older generations act they really cannot take a joke sometimes. Im seriously putting all cards in the table, betting she fabricated the story to make herself look better cause the way she worded things was just weird.
Well I think it's about time to catch up with the last few weeks content. I'm pretty peeved that I love listening to the Spotify podcasts and although I pay a fee for no ads, still get ads. (I don't mean the in podcast ads by the narrator, I mean actual ads) Goodbye Spotify then.
Great way to start my Saturday morning 🤩
