Story 2: she deserved being held hardcore accountable, like imagine being such a terror that you’re rated lowest in the country, that you assault staff, that you make staff scream, that someone investigates you undercover for 2 weeks, that when you get a new job the WHOLE TOWN boycotts that business because you are working there. I’m very surprised someone didn’t knock her out tbh
Odds are Tracy is very sexually attractive. It would easily explain how she got out of trouble with the cops and she probably leaned forward during the fast food pizza interview.
The owners of the restaurant are stupid. If EVERYBODY is complaining about ONE PERSON. There’s a problem, time to listen to those people, time to do a REAL investigation.
@A_Demon_Doggy working almost 19 years, and while I do get a yearly raise, they keep raising the base pay faster, I'm almost even with a new hire, and same department over night employees make more (overnight bonus) day one
This is what happens when you screw someone over who doesn't deserve it. You work hard for your workers, they will do the same, you screw over your workers, they'll do the same.
I'm surprised that pizza place would hire her if she was this hated. If everyone in a small town know you're a piece of shit I don't see why anyone would give her a job.
Last story: I've worked in a restaurant before and I can honestly aay that toxic employees give the entire store a bad name and a bad reputation and as a result, everyone who suffers under their thumb should quit and boycott until the toxic people are removed!
Story 2: Wow what a manipulative bastard. She's only nice when higher-ups are around so she won't be punished and bullies everyone when they're absent. Heck, she's so bad that people were still boycotting her wherever she went next
Story 2: Managers like Tracy are why many retail chains and restaurants have "secret shoppers" come in regularly. Like monthly or quarterly or something. Secret shoppers are folks hired (sometimes from within the company but far enough away that local staff won't recognize them, sometimes from outside the company) to pretend to be regular customers and observe the place. They fill out a checklist or form where they rate that location on whatever is important to higher-ups about the customer experience. Service quality/speed, cleanliness, product quality, staff professionalism, attention to detail, and following company policies/scripts, are common things they look at. Management is generally informed of their store's score after it's been turned in to the bosses, and given recommendations for where they can improve. Or sometimes on who they need to make shape up or fire, if a particular staff member catches their eye in a bad way. It often affects management's performance reviews and bonuses, too. Or for businesses that sell highly regulated products like alcohol or cigarettes, whatever regulatory body oversees those licenses will occasionally send in undercover people to check whether staff follows proper procedure for handling and selling that stuff.
I read a great story once about a secret shopper. OP said they worked in a bodega. A young lady came in and asked for a pack of cigarettes. OP asked for ID. She assured them she was 18 but didn’t have her ID on her. She was trying pretty hard to sweet talk her way into getting the smokes, but OP remained firm. No ID proving she was at least 18, no smokes. She eventually left, empty handed. A few weeks later, the boss asked to see OP privately. It turned out the shopper was 16 and working with the feds going to various shops licensed to sell tobacco products to see if they were following the laws. If OP had caved, the store would have faced a massive fine and lost their license. Boss was so happy OP stuck to their guns, they received a nice bonus.
The problem s that they typically only report good employees who make MAYBE one mistake, most secret shoppers HATE retail and food workers. Because of this, managers and employees have gotten good at spotting them and secretly teach other employees how to do so, as well as warning nearby stores in the chain when they're spotted, including a description of them, so they can be ready for them. Source: I've worked at two fast food restaurants and a gas station and I've watched the managers, including the store manager, write up the email and send it to the other stores.
My store gets a secret shopper a couple times a year. Unfortunately my manager is never on the floor to be audited by the shoppers. Fortunately for him I usually am and I have a A++ score on all my reviews. Little does he know that during the corporate visit next month I'll be submitting my two weeks notice in front of the CFO and Logistics team.
First Story: See this is why u don’t mistreat ur employees, they might screw u over in the long run. I also found Dick's methods of trying to convince OP to stay and work for him is hilarious. He brings up the policy, he claims no one will wait 3 months, he suggested that OP ask his parents or his wife's parents for money; I question how he has his own company in the first place Second Story: Holy hell Tracy sounds like a nightmare. The resturant being the lowest in the country because of one person speaks soooo much volumes about why that person shouldn’t be a manager
I’ll never understand why those people don’t press charges. By not doing so, you’re letting the aggressor know that what they’re doing is perfectly acceptable and has no consequences. ALWAYS 👏PRESS 👏CHARGES👏
@LordSeal7 The cops don't have to believe you in order for you to press charges. Pressing charges forces them to investigate at which point they would have had to acknowledge the bruising and would have viewed the security footage where they would have found evidence that Tracey lied. Never let someone tell you that it would do you no good to press charges.
@@LordSeal7 Not only would the cops NOT get a choice in the matter at that point but the cops who took Tracy's side would be in HUGE trouble as now that employee can sue the police for negligence.
I wouldn't sign a contract like that unless there was some clause stating that if a family emergency or sudden health problems would be exempt from the penalties.
I would. That's the most dumbass contract I've ever heard of. If I don't want to work there anymore, I'd just be crap at my job until they fired me and had to pay me 3 months wages. If an opportunity so good that I'd be willing to leave the job effective immediately to take the new job came along, I could afford to pay the fee. Hell, I could probably even negotiate to have my new employer pay it if they wanted me that badly. Hell, had something like that happen once. Told the new employer that I could start immediately but asked if I could finish the month at my old job because I would lose a 1,500 dollar bonus if I left sooner. Instead they offered me a 1,500 dollar signing bonus to start right away.

I worked at a Panera that was similar but not as bad as the last story. GM was verbally abusive but secretive about it. Coworker came in drunk/high every day and we had to work on DT together which was pretty much an addition to the original building so private from the rest of the restaurant. Coworker and I got into arguments a lot. Manager teamed up because he had the hots for her. One time she even "accidentally" cut the soup bag incorrectly when I pulled it out of the heating well and burned me so badly. Being 16 I asked if I'm allowed to leave and the GM said to clean up and get back to work. After 2 years of this I was promised the open management role. Some other coworker did so I was upset of course. Then my annual raise came around and offered only 7 cents. Yes. Seven fucking cents. Being 18 by now I applied at UPS because my uncle worked there. I came back in a nice manager was there and informed him of my 2 weeks. Worked as usual for the day. The next day the GM was there and offered suddenly 1.05$ raise. UPS would still be 3$ more so I declined. He then terminated me then and there so I went home for a 2 week vacation. The instant karma was perfect as he scheduled me from open to close all Easter weekend. As anyone who worked at Panera would know that's the busiest day of the year for us. I was then asked by HR the next day about my departure and if I had any concerns they should be aware about. I found this odd guessing there was a whistle blower and they were following up with others I told them about my experience. They apparently saw the manager and mean coworker smoking pot and making out in the DT area around the food. And the GM was demoted to manager at another location. Sorry for the long story just was my first job and smile remembering going to the GMs new location seeing him bossed around
Some people can talk their way out of anything when an authority figure tries to address a problem, no matter how abusive they are behind closed doors. I witnessed that when DFS came to my use to “investigate” the reports of me being beaten and my abusive parents made the person leave with the impression that I’m a hyperbolic attention-seeking drama queen. You can imagine how bad it was once they left…
I worked at a job for 11.5 years that, by the end, I was being verbally abused in a highly toxic and as such, my confidence was destroyed. Now, here I am, about 5 years later, working somewhere else, making a lot more money then there and I am treated very well. My confidence is super high and I no longer takes things personally, at all.
I had a manager like Tracy. He name was Sue. She was the scourge of the earth. Boy named Sue, if you're reading this, my only regret is you didn't get shut down like that restaurant.
First story: From thief to delusion. Of course any sane person would jump ship if the ship is a dumpster on fire. OP just added fuel to the fire by making mistakes.
Story 2: This is why I loved the episodes of Undercover Boss whenever a tyrannical manager actually got fired because they mouthed off to the CEO of certain companies without knowing it was the CEO or someone similar. God, I miss that show...
Is it so hard to treat people nicely? At the very least, don't treat your coworkers and workers like garbage. Tracy made a poison-drenched bed of nails she needs to lie on. Some people have never left the highschool cafeteria where they pick on the weakest link.
There are a surprising number of people that have this belief that your employees should hate you. If they don't, you're not doing your job. Some of these people are just bad human beings but many of them are perfectly nice and respectful people outside of superior/underling relationships. But this is something they truly believe. It's every bit as messed up as you think it is.
I don't know if this has been mentioned before and I'm no expert in the law, but I'm pretty sure the manager taking tips from the workers is illegal as hell. Especially taking a good amount of the tips.
2nd story: Your middle management needs to be EXTREMELY dumb and ignorant to NOT do anything about the your worst performing restaurant,with worst reviews from both clients and employees. Like,holy shot. She made an entire town,literally, hate her
There's a way to get our of any onerous requirement to stay for a long time. Guy I knew in passing worked at a place with something like a 3wk notice required, so figure 15 working days. If you didn't give enough notice, say, 1wk/5d, you'd "owe" 10d to them. Any accrued vacation to pay out would have that deducted, and if *that* wasn't enough, they'd deduct from your final paycheck. Guy got out of that by provoking a hothead manager by just subtly needling him, then quietly told him to f off where no one else heard him. Hothead flipped, fired him on the spot *and* shoved him from behind, so he left and told them he expected to be paid out in full, else he'd report the assault to the cops. Worked.
If that were my coworker, I’d testify as an eye-witness even if I hadn’t seen it first hand. Just talk to the coworker like “you should press charges and if you do I’ll back you up”
ah, tracy sounds like my aunt. so many employees quit after being yelled, and we lost one great manager who brings in big money (and only received 'thanks' but no monetary value) then got chewed out for one small unimportant mistake. now our hotel is empty because of her poor management with just one employee being asked to do three man's job.
You know how people say 'don't burn bridges' when leaving a company, so give a two weeks notice, blah blah blah? Well, employers should remember that as well. Not everyone is going to stay working for you forever, and if you treat an employee badly, they might be in the position down the line to really screw you over. The first story really shows that, but it's something I see come up time and time again. It doesn't cost anything to be a decent person. More employers should try it.
I appreciate the addition of timestamps to the podcast. This way if there's a story that is making me uncomfortable, I can just skip straight to the next story without missing a beat!
I had a boss like Tracy. He called me stupid more than once and yelled at me for the pettiest stuff. The worst was when he wouldnt let me go home after puking from food poisoning TWICE. He told me to lay on the make table if I was nauseated. Seriously.
I have had a really crappy boss when working for the national postal service. If you behaved exemplary, he simply nodded at you before going into his office. However, if you (god forbid) got overburdened by being forced to take on 3 senior employee's duties because "they were so busy" handing out mail from their cars, and you couldn't finish your own mail deliveries after a 14 hour workday, you got yelled at to the verge of tears. I remember one day when I had started my workday 6:30 a.m., and I had to sort all the mail for the car routes before I could even start to sort my own after lunch. I got out on my delivery round at 3 p.m., when all the car routes got back and got to go home. I had to call my boss at 8:30 p.m. to admit that it was so dark that I couldn't read the names on the mailboxes anymore. He *EXPLODED* and started screaming at me to get back to the sorting center immediately. This was also the day that I already had made plans with my then boyfriend, now husband, to do something special for our anniversary, but of course we missed that.
I think so, but some people just don’t think anyone is working if they can’t see it. My FIL is like that. My fiancé could spend his entire day on campus doing school work and then when he went home (when he was still living with his parents) he would relax and play video games and his dad would flip shit because he wasn’t doing work. If he didn’t _see_ the work/studying, it wasn’t happening.
@kranberry3318 It seems to be the old school types who also think employees should be loyal to the company who think that way. My mother was like that. No matter how clean the house was, if she didn't see it being cleaned, it didn't happen.
Tracey should consider a job at Wolt delivery. They won't lose money on "hiring" her and she can be in total power of her own income... if she manages to make any, that is.
Story 2 : that supervisor was honestly worse then tracey . They were a coward..if they were such " an angel" why didnt they fire tracey on her first F up...
@@A_Demon_Doggy how could they just let tracey run stupid without at least recording her actions like when she was screaming at op ?? They were a coward..
I agree with you that the supervisor should have done more to expose Tracey but OP’s supervisor can’t fire their general manager that’s just not how it works.
the first story, I'm supposed to care or even believe someone who uses terms like "dick, fatty, dummie" to refer to human being? I doubt their whole story.
If the supervisor was such an angel, why did they let the manager to abuse the employees for as long as she did? They witnessed everything happen, even "rescuing" OP when the supervisor was screaming at OP. 🤨
Sometimes the most difficult thing you can do is call out your boss for their bad behavior. I had to do it once against two of my supervisors and while upper management thanked me afterwards, it was nerve-wracking during.
That second story. As someone who has worked a good number of service jobs for both corporate and franchisees. I have never heard of them putting someone into a restaurant to work there as a normal employee and taking action. So it's either bullshit. Or they reaaallly screwed up.
Maybe Tracy should work in the law enforcement... being the jailor, or warden. If the criminals know she works there... maybe they'd boycott doing crimes. 😂😂😂
Reminds me of my old manager. I worked as a stocker in a grocery store and after my chief bullied me he got employee of the month, when he stepped down and a new guy was hired he was an EX con who bullied me and when I reported it my manager told me to leave him alone. Then when he left and I got a third chief, he was openly a pedophile and of course when I reported it, nothing was done. So I walked up to my boss one day and just quit because even my other coworkers saw how badly I was treated. This is just a little taste of what happened there xD it's a long story but thank God I left. Honestly would have loved to get revenge somehow on my manager for being so mean but oh well. From what I heard when I left, they made a new rule about how nobody can ask how my old department was doing and how she would get pissed at just my name being mentioned. Loved the work, loved my coworkers, but really couldn't stand my manager and the boss always took her side xD
Story 1 and 2: we all had a boss like Dick and Tracy who mistreat employee and get Karma and this remind me two of my job that I have shit boss and that they would get mad over the stupid shit and now I see why people was already quit that why if you see a job that alway got a hired sign or a people quit so fast it cause a horrible boss
In the last story; why would there be a line all the way out of the restaurant if everyone boycotted the restaurant and the reviews was the lowest in the contry?
Last story is BS, a restaurant fails a health inspection and isn't shut down? That doesn't get any higher up managers attention? This is a tourist town yet somehow has this huge chain restaurant? Nah, I call bs
The second story reminds me of a vetenarian thats still possibly working in the city where Im staying. They're actively so bad at their job and with animals that people actively avoid the place where she works, everytime she changes jobs the boycott moves with her. I heard multiple stories of mistakes that caused pets to die, when they shouldn't have. I found all of this out AFTER my encouter with her, which still pisses me off.
Hi Rslash, i know you don't read comments lol but i wanted to say that i saw that you started to put timestamps on the podcast, i think this is a good idea!
Is today april fools? Rslash actually covering something other than AITA? Surprising. At this point dude just make a 3rd channel where you only do AITA stories because you obviously love them.
Second story: how is that the small town all did know about Tracy's bad behavior and didn't want to go there but then after OP quit there was a long queue out on the street? Fake story?
Getting serious mixed signals on that last story. The locals all new Tracy and avoid the restaurant she works at....and they had a line out the door anyway?
Maybe I'm crazy but I don't think its ok to scream at anyone. I don't care if you're the CEO and you're talking to an intern on his first day, screaming is just disrespectful and no way to treat a fellow human being.
Story 2: she deserved being held hardcore accountable, like imagine being such a terror that you’re rated lowest in the country, that you assault staff, that you make staff scream, that someone investigates you undercover for 2 weeks, that when you get a new job the WHOLE TOWN boycotts that business because you are working there.

Honestly astounded that she even GOT a new job if her reputation was that terrible.
reminds me of Amy's Baking Company
knock her out yet..... she will probably get knocked up at one point unfortunately by some random junkie
Odds are Tracy is very sexually attractive. It would easily explain how she got out of trouble with the cops and she probably leaned forward during the fast food pizza interview.

I don't know if this has been mentioned before and I'm no expert in the law, but I'm pretty sure the manager taking tips from the workers is illegal as hell. Especially taking a good amount of the tips.
Very illegal. Not sure if it falls under wage theft, possibly embezzlement?
You know it's been quite a while since we got a r/Nuclearrevenge story! I would to hear one again!
I love those!!
I had a boss like Tracy.. i quit,and she called later to try to get me to help them.. yeah,no hun.. i respect myself and my time..
2nd story: Your middle management needs to be EXTREMELY dumb and ignorant to NOT do anything about the your worst performing restaurant,with worst reviews from both clients and employees.
Like,holy shot. She made an entire town,literally, hate her
Middle management is probably getting..... how should I say this... other benefits from her.
I guess it’s true when they say attitude is important when running a business
There's a way to get our of any onerous requirement to stay for a long time. Guy I knew in passing worked at a place with something like a 3wk notice required, so figure 15 working days. If you didn't give enough notice, say, 1wk/5d, you'd "owe" 10d to them. Any accrued vacation to pay out would have that deducted, and if *that* wasn't enough, they'd deduct from your final paycheck. Guy got out of that by provoking a hothead manager by just subtly needling him, then quietly told him to f off where no one else heard him. Hothead flipped, fired him on the spot *and* shoved him from behind, so he left and told them he expected to be paid out in full, else he'd report the assault to the cops. Worked.
I hope that everyone is having a good Saturday!
I hope you have a bad day
@@gaminwithproplayer836that was not very gamer of you
Hope you do too
I forgot to sleep last night and now I’m tired
You too! (:
Imagine being hated by a whole town. I never want to be in Tracy's shoes lol
story 2 where the guy went under cover reminds of a show where the boss goes under cover at his own work
Undercover Boss
I wanna see that episode of undercover boss so badly
My thoughts EXACTLY!
Tracy assaulting the staff could easily be captured on camera, and or by witnesses. Unless none were there.
If that were my coworker, I’d testify as an eye-witness even if I hadn’t seen it first hand. Just talk to the coworker like “you should press charges and if you do I’ll back you up”
ah, tracy sounds like my aunt. so many employees quit after being yelled, and we lost one great manager who brings in big money (and only received 'thanks' but no monetary value) then got chewed out for one small unimportant mistake. now our hotel is empty because of her poor management with just one employee being asked to do three man's job.
You know how people say 'don't burn bridges' when leaving a company, so give a two weeks notice, blah blah blah? Well, employers should remember that as well. Not everyone is going to stay working for you forever, and if you treat an employee badly, they might be in the position down the line to really screw you over. The first story really shows that, but it's something I see come up time and time again. It doesn't cost anything to be a decent person. More employers should try it.
I appreciate the addition of timestamps to the podcast. This way if there's a story that is making me uncomfortable, I can just skip straight to the next story without missing a beat!
The last story Lowkey sounds like that one undercover boss story w the gym, nice that they got Justice lmao
I had a boss like Tracy. He called me stupid more than once and yelled at me for the pettiest stuff. The worst was when he wouldnt let me go home after puking from food poisoning TWICE. He told me to lay on the make table if I was nauseated. Seriously.
I have had a really crappy boss when working for the national postal service. If you behaved exemplary, he simply nodded at you before going into his office. However, if you (god forbid) got overburdened by being forced to take on 3 senior employee's duties because "they were so busy" handing out mail from their cars, and you couldn't finish your own mail deliveries after a 14 hour workday, you got yelled at to the verge of tears. I remember one day when I had started my workday 6:30 a.m., and I had to sort all the mail for the car routes before I could even start to sort my own after lunch. I got out on my delivery round at 3 p.m., when all the car routes got back and got to go home. I had to call my boss at 8:30 p.m. to admit that it was so dark that I couldn't read the names on the mailboxes anymore. He *EXPLODED* and started screaming at me to get back to the sorting center immediately. This was also the day that I already had made plans with my then boyfriend, now husband, to do something special for our anniversary, but of course we missed that.
I like listening to people's stories
I'm no expert by any means, but it seems that allowing employees to work from home would be more cost-effective for the company
I think so, but some people just don’t think anyone is working if they can’t see it. My FIL is like that. My fiancé could spend his entire day on campus doing school work and then when he went home (when he was still living with his parents) he would relax and play video games and his dad would flip shit because he wasn’t doing work. If he didn’t _see_ the work/studying, it wasn’t happening.
@kranberry3318 It seems to be the old school types who also think employees should be loyal to the company who think that way.
My mother was like that. No matter how clean the house was, if she didn't see it being cleaned, it didn't happen.
@@MrsShocoTaco God that’s so frustrating. Can’t you just look at it and see it’s clean?? How is that not enough proof?
@kranberry3318 It was kept fairly clean, but one would think the absence of dust would be a clue if nothing else lol
I love that these come out at 1am while I’m at my nightshift
Tracey should consider a job at Wolt delivery. They won't lose money on "hiring" her and she can be in total power of her own income... if she manages to make any, that is.
Story 2 : that supervisor was honestly worse then tracey . They were a coward..if they were such " an angel" why didnt they fire tracey on her first F up...
It was probably OP’s direct supervisor but below the GM.
@@A_Demon_Doggy how could they just let tracey run stupid without at least recording her actions like when she was screaming at op ?? They were a coward..
@@thetruth1816 I agree with that. It shouldn’t have taken that long for something to change.
I agree with you that the supervisor should have done more to expose Tracey but OP’s supervisor can’t fire their general manager that’s just not how it works.
who would have thought that being openly hostile towards your employees would lead to her getting fired
Gimme those sweet, sweet pro revenge stories!!!
Third story: that's just wild! A donkey and a can of soup, who would think that would work
Ikr? Never saw it coming!
In the first story the boss pretending that everything was going to go back to normal was what we all did
the first story, I'm supposed to care or even believe someone who uses terms like "dick, fatty, dummie" to refer to human being? I doubt their whole story.
If the supervisor was such an angel, why did they let the manager to abuse the employees for as long as she did? They witnessed everything happen, even "rescuing" OP when the supervisor was screaming at OP. 🤨
Sometimes the most difficult thing you can do is call out your boss for their bad behavior. I had to do it once against two of my supervisors and while upper management thanked me afterwards, it was nerve-wracking during.
Tracy = Amys Baking Company
The fake names in story 1 were *chef’s kiss*
Story 1: That was some good karma for bullying employees. That damage will never heal
That second story.
As someone who has worked a good number of service jobs for both corporate and franchisees. I have never heard of them putting someone into a restaurant to work there as a normal employee and taking action.
So it's either bullshit. Or they reaaallly screwed up.
The whole town sees a problem...
Police: I don't see a problem 😍
Maybe Tracy should work in the law enforcement... being the jailor, or warden.
If the criminals know she works there... maybe they'd boycott doing crimes.
😂😂😂
"Who the 'f do you think you are?!"
"You're f'ing fired, that's who."
Reminds me of my old manager. I worked as a stocker in a grocery store and after my chief bullied me he got employee of the month, when he stepped down and a new guy was hired he was an EX con who bullied me and when I reported it my manager told me to leave him alone. Then when he left and I got a third chief, he was openly a pedophile and of course when I reported it, nothing was done. So I walked up to my boss one day and just quit because even my other coworkers saw how badly I was treated. This is just a little taste of what happened there xD it's a long story but thank God I left. Honestly would have loved to get revenge somehow on my manager for being so mean but oh well. From what I heard when I left, they made a new rule about how nobody can ask how my old department was doing and how she would get pissed at just my name being mentioned. Loved the work, loved my coworkers, but really couldn't stand my manager and the boss always took her side xD
Story 1 and 2: we all had a boss like Dick and Tracy who mistreat employee and get Karma and this remind me two of my job that I have shit boss and that they would get mad over the stupid shit and now I see why people was already quit that why if you see a job that alway got a hired sign or a people quit so fast it cause a horrible boss
manager so bad even customers avoid it
Y would u hire someone if u know that their reputation will cause the town to boycott u for hiring them
One word: sex
Bruh imagine being so terrible eveyone in town knows you and avoids you
In the last story; why would there be a line all the way out of the restaurant if everyone boycotted the restaurant and the reviews was the lowest in the contry?
Dick the Boss: You'll never make it in your career outside of this place!
OP: Proceeds to get an executive position outside of this place.
Cost uour boss $100m... meanwhile, Dylan Mulvaney sitting here saying "hold my beer" thats childs play...
Last story is BS, a restaurant fails a health inspection and isn't shut down? That doesn't get any higher up managers attention? This is a tourist town yet somehow has this huge chain restaurant? Nah, I call bs
Second Story: I think I have an idea for a suitable job for Tracy. AS A SCARECROW.
The second story reminds me of a vetenarian thats still possibly working in the city where Im staying. They're actively so bad at their job and with animals that people actively avoid the place where she works, everytime she changes jobs the boycott moves with her.
I heard multiple stories of mistakes that caused pets to die, when they shouldn't have.
I found all of this out AFTER my encouter with her, which still pisses me off.
There’s a saying. People don’t quit jobs / they quit poor management.
Hi Rslash, i know you don't read comments lol but i wanted to say that i saw that you started to put timestamps on the podcast, i think this is a good idea!
Is today april fools? Rslash actually covering something other than AITA? Surprising. At this point dude just make a 3rd channel where you only do AITA stories because you obviously love them.
I'd watch it!
Ring ring
Who is it?
Karma
Tracey sounds a lot like a manager I know whose name is literally Karen for the mother of all ironies
First story- OP could've gone Nuclear Revenge he didn't do it.
OK that first story. You have to pay a penalty in order to quit? Is that even legal?
Second story: how is that the small town all did know about Tracy's bad behavior and didn't want to go there but then after OP quit there was a long queue out on the street? Fake story?
Is the first story a repeat? I think I’ve heard that one before…
Getting serious mixed signals on that last story. The locals all new Tracy and avoid the restaurant she works at....and they had a line out the door anyway?
Story 1 is a nuclear revenge...LOL
Here at the beginning again lol.
Happy Saturday everyone.
Undercover food cop
God how much you want to bet tracy blame everyone else for how her life is going
Does anyone know if that last story is an episode of undercover Boss
Why does this video have only 62 likes
Maybe I'm crazy but I don't think its ok to scream at anyone. I don't care if you're the CEO and you're talking to an intern on his first day, screaming is just disrespectful and no way to treat a fellow human being.
OP is a living W
Mad it's not called provenge
2nd story.. wow. Lmao
