I think my response would have been this: "Lady, if he bites me, I'll bite you. If he draws blood, so will I." I wonder what her response to that would have been?
Story 1: Misery love company. Got a feeling she found the book beforehand, hide it from OP so she can be a jerk to them. And the fact the owner knew her before maybe she did it before to the other employees.
That was my exact thought. Especially when it came up later that she was a regular. Didn't she say at some point "I, a customer who has never been here before, knows the bookstore better than you?" so not only did she magically find the exact misplaced book she was looking for very quickly, but then exaggerated the whole thing until she got the new girl in tears. and during the entire lecture, at no time did she ask for a manager or owner even though she apparently know that person.
Also, the employee checked the computer and it said the book was out of stock, but she finds a copy. Makes me wonder if she paid for a copy that she already owned purely for the purpose of making someone else's life miserable. Hope the manager bans her from the store.
As soon she went into Karen mode, shoulda snatched up the book and declared it was another customer's book and they must've dropped it on the way out. The put the book behind the counter. No book for you, Karenujia!!
I question that last story. Hospitals and such are mandatory reporters. "My kid bit someone that said they have HIV" would have prompted a call to the cps, local health department, and maybe even CDC. HIV testing is not a one and done for new exposure along with the kid and family may have been put on a medical watchlist.
@@robertpeacock1635man I hope so, because HIV is only one of many infectious diseases that can be transmitted through bodily fluids! That woman should be reported for negligence and endangering a child.
Story 3: This guy refuses to raise the wage, calls everyone else "lazy" and "entitled," fails to maintain a staff, and even blames the one employee he overworked the most for his own failures. Yeah, no wonder his business pretty much imploded, he literally does not know how to be a supporting boss.
I truly do hope that OP does get an attorney together with his other coworkers. The way that guy acts is totally erratic, and he may he brazen enough to hurt someone.
The last story reminds me of my mom.. some little brat of a kid did that to her ' i'm going to bite you' she cold as ice said "I'll bite you back' now.. imagine this tiny little older lady, wearing a tiedye shirt and a matching hat in a wheelchair the brat bit her, she bit him right back but harder, he screamed bloody murder his mom screamed at my mom 'why did you bite my child' my mom's reply was ' is that your child? I thought it was a feral one' sweet as anything I was standing behind her wheelchair, recording, I had been for a while so even if the stores cameras missed something i had it on my phone.. i missed what mom said, something about making her child behave.. his mom went ' DON'T YOU TELL ME HOW TO RAISE MY CHILD" to which my dear mom went "i'm not telling you how, darling, i'm telling you TO raise your child." god i miss that woman
The Karen mother in last story is risking a lawsuit against herself. Human bites breaking the skin can cause nasty infections, and a victim should sue her for costs of medical treatment.
Not only that. What if the hell spawn really does bite someone with aid or hiv. Treatment and medicine for transmitted diseases are not cheap either but with job her husband have they can afford it.
Maybe not just a lawsuit but what about child endangerment or neglect? Letting your child be exposed to potentially infectious diseases. Staph is on people’s skin normally, one loose tooth and the kid could get an infection like that in his bloodstream.
More, the FATHER, who is the manager of the store, is risking a massive law suit for creating/allowing a dangerous situation to repeatedly occur in the store. If he isn't the owner, the owner or company that owns the store would absolutely DESTROY his family's entire life, as he is personally directly responsible for each and every injury his wife and child cause. The man is an idiot. If the owner knows he's allowing that situation to keep happening, they're just ripe for a payout to someone, who absolutely will open the door to a dozen more. I mean, I have a compromised immune system due to a digestive disorder, and the human mouth is more bacteria-ridden than a dog's. If a kid bit me, I'd probably end up hospitalized for weeks, and then home-bound for months. You can bet I'd have a line-up of giddy ambulance chasers ready to ensure I never have to work again to support my current lifestyle, pay my medical bills from now until I die (in maybe another 50 years?) and absolutely ensure every penny-farthing that family ever manages to scrape off a sewer grate goes into MY pocket. Mom and Dad will be lucky to afford a used mini-van to live out of, and that kid will spend his life paying off his family's responsibilities. No college, no trade school, and if he manages to father a child, that money would go to me before his baby-mama ever sees a dime of child support. Very stupid parents.
Oh hell yeah she's risking a lawsuit. The mouth has some nasty germs. I remember a Forensic Files episode about a woman who was murdered in her hotel room by the hotel's maintenance guy. She had bit the guy's hand as he was attacking her . That's how they found out he did it. The guy went to the ER to treat it but he told the doctor he scratched it on a dumpster or something but the doctor knew better. The doctor took pics of his hand and he swabbed it and sent it to the lab and found out he had some obscure bacteria only found in the mouth. I believe they swabbed the mouth of the victim and found the same bacteria and realized she bit him.
I'd totally be reminding the karen that 1. if her child assaults someone bc he's so young she's going to be held liable and 2. it's still self defense 🤷♀
Third, if Karen doesn't correct that behavior now she better forget about retirement. Because she'll be using that money to bond out her menace of a child when he terrorizes people at an age where it's most definitely not tolerated.
Hey Fluff, back in the 1990's I worked for an AIDS Charity, I had to learn about the disease firsthand from people infected with AIDS. I also had to learn first aid treatments; every time I so much as had a papercut, I was going crazy with fear. In the end, immediately after getting trained to work as a worker; we lost 90% of our clientele, this was a direct result of the AIDS Cocktail coming into widespread use. Each of the clients died immediately after starting treatment because their livers were compromised due to the AIDS virus. The agency is still in my hometown, but now they treat anybody who suffers from HIV, AIDS, HEP C, and any other blood borne pathogen. Sadly, I'm not longer working there. Sometimes, like hearing the story of the Karen refusing to police her screaming brat who threatened to bite someone who could be immuno-compromised; makes me so upset. If that little shit had gotten infected; you know Damn well that Karen would blame the victim, not her crappy parenting!
I read a similar post where the kid was running through the store causing havoc, and the mother didn't stop it, and didn't get banned, because she was the owner's wife. But the owner was away so much that he never heard, or maybe didn't listen, about the complaints. The kid grabbed the ear of support animal that was helping a man who had seizures, and bit down as hard as he could on the dog's ear, and the dog turned and bit the kid, badly. The mother called the cops, the cops both viewed the footage, and apparently took the recording footage WITH them, while the owner's caretaker took the owner and the dog to the vet because the dog needed to get stitches. The mother got arrested, the kid got taken to the hospital due to the fact the dog bit his face. Long story short, the court stated the dog was NOT aggressive, the kid hurt the dog and the dog was defending itself. The owner was shocked that his wife had allowed things to get that bad, and the kid got time in Juvie.
@BridgetKF 10!!! He was entirely too old for this type of behavior. I thought he might have been 3-5 yo. The mother deserved whatever came of this, she fafo and it wasn't in her favor.
Oh god, that last story reminds me of my own. This lady had her own son who was maybe 7 or 8 who would walk up to people, try steal their wallets or purses, and would bite those who would stop him. This was back in 2001 where I was 18 at the time. Well, that kid tried to steal from me and I of course stopped him from reaching into my pockets. Lo and behold he bit me, hard enough to draw blood. Immediately I called 911 as I had one of the small Nokia phones (yes the one that people claim they can not break), for two reasons: 1, I was just assaulted, and 2, I have hepatitis C, I was born with it because my mother has it. Thankfully, I never was affected by the disease, but I can still give it to others through my blood. The cops arrived first and I informed them that both myself and the child need paramedics immediately. The cop was confused until I told him I have hep C and his face went pale since I was obviously bleeding from the bite. The mother even tried to attack me once she was told her child needed to go to the hospital asap due to possibly contracting the disease. I did press charges at first, but dropped them after discovering the child's fate. Sadly, yes, the kid did contract the disease, and passed away 7 years later from it. I only know this because the mother filed a lawsuit against me claiming it was my fault her child died due to getting the disease from biting me. The case was dropped after I gave her lawyer the police report on how her son got the disease. I did get an apology letter from the lawyer after as the mother failed to explain how I gave her son a blood borne disease. I do feel bad the child died, but it does not keep me up at night as I know it was his parents responsibility to properly raise their kid to not bite random people.
Yeah it was definitely the parents responsibility to raise teach or whatever to the child. They let him bite you and look what happened in the end. Absolutely no fault of yours.
@@tailsofchaos Thank you. I only knew I even had Hep C was from me trying to donate blood a few months prior this incident. And yes it was the Nokia 3310 I had @JamesDavy2009 .
and the mother still had the gall to try and sue you because HER SON bite you, contracted hep C and unfortunately passed away from it. She still refused, after all those years, to accept the fact that IF she had stopped that behavior before it got started he would still be here. Some people just don't learn...smh.
Second story, you can file a restraining order where you could have her held by law to not contact your workplace if she's known on record to lie/slander you out of malicious intent. Breaking the lawful order can result heavy fine and/or jail time. Know your local laws to be sure.
When OP and the first story said they were almost driven to tears because of Karen, I wanted to give them a hug 🫂 Wow, Karen in the second story sounds like one of those people who just want to watch the world burn Wow, the third story is just completely insane 🤯 That d-bag boss really had the ⚾️⚾️ to tell OP to “grow up” and to “be a man” when he himself could accept that an ex employee quit and that everyone else was smart enough to join him in unemployment rather than dealing with their (to say the least) toxic boss The fourth Karen wasn’t raising a child. She was basically raising a rabid dog trapped in the body of a young boy
Story 3: I seen the inside of a pizza restaurant before and usually I see at least 5-9 employees either managing, cooking, or waiting to drive/deliver the pizza. So the idiot manager was just plain bad at his job not retaining enough staff to keep it running.
How much do you want to bet that the reason the Karen in the first story found the book where she did is because she put it there,Like I've said in other posts I worked retail for close 15 years and seen it all from those kind of customers it would not surprise me
@@Catherinewelter-z6dI thought the same thing. Her life is sh*t and she just wants to spread around her unhappiness. She setup OP, she's really a pathetic, angry person.
Story 2: The packages were delivered by UPS, not USPS. That makes a difference, you can’t be charged with mail theft unless it was delivered by USPS as UPS is a private company not affiliated with the US Government.
Even if it is USPS, if a package or parcel (not mail or letters, different rules) is mistakenly delivered to you, you are allowed to keep it by Federal law. It has to be something purchased from or sent by a seller, but Federal rules issued by the FTC allow you to keep that package. Again, it's limited to parcels containing product(s) purchased from a seller or retailer.
@@EnosEugenius that is when a company sends you unsolicited goods. It is being sent to you with the expectation that you will purchase, but you are not under any legal obligation to pay. This does not apply to packages that are not addressed to you and do not have your address on it.
@@balanc-joy9187 you didn’t know that because it’s not true. That is for when something is addressed to you that you did not order. Not when your neighbors package gets left at your doorstep mistakenly.
The last story? If some little brat is biting other people, I'd be more worried for the people he bites than the brat. Human bites are worse for infections than dog bites, and who knows what an immunocompromised person could get from the kid? Seriously, if you are bitten and the skin broken, get yourself to the hospital! Also, call the police, and press charges on either the biter (if old enough) or it's parent.
that is so true. a human bite can get so badly infected if not treated straightaway that it will require surgery to remove all the infected tissue, and if that wasn't bad enough that can easily go septic and that is nothing to laugh at
Bites from people can be worse than dog bites for infections. I would have filed a police report, had the footage of the incident looked at, gone to the hospital, and made sure she was charged and liable for the treatment.
That first story it feels like that lady might have hidden the item there herself considering how out of the way of where it was supposed to be it was and how she just happened to just have found it in such an out of the way area. Along with her pushing the idea that she was never there before. To what end I really dont know but it really feels like she set that up
The last story was hilarious. Something similar happened in a waiting room at a doctor's office. There was a child going around kicking the people in waiting room while the parent did nothing. When the child got in front of my Sister, a School Librarian, she stopped him just before he leaned back to kick her, and she yelled loud enough to wake up the dead, "Lady if your child kicks me, I will drop kick him to the parking lot just before I walk across this waiting room and send you out to join him!" Everyone including the receptionists and other awaiting patients applauded her and said a big "Thank You" to my 105 lb sister! She was my Shero! 😂
Last Story I would not be talking... You get the wrong person, someone with mental health issues, PTSD, Special Forces Combat trained Police combat trained to react 1st- If that kid survives the ambulance trip he is going to be in a coma for a while. There are people out there who will blind rage on someone without realizing who they are raging on and they will defend themselves to the death unless stopped. I can't imagine in any world where letting a child of any age think it is okay to run up to and bite random people... The kids in the last story were lucky the posters were rational enough to intellectually fight back versus a PTSD or mental health blind rage.
Story 2: And remember, all of this started when her relative crossed property lines and OP confronted him nicely about it. Karen decided that OP does not deserve a nice job and life because of that, and it lead to the package situation and harassing OP's boss. I think a lawsuit is needed to shut her up
I was a school bus driver and there was a girl that liked to bite people. The teachers tried to correct the behavior but her mother thought it was funny so she kept biting until she bit me. I got her mother's information from the school and pressed charges for encouraging her daughter to bite people. That girl was made to apologize and the mom had to take parenting classes.
A regular customer who as never been there before? She absolutely hid that book previously, maybe some kind of weird ego trip, so that she can pick on new employees, glad the boss had OP's back!
Exactly! A toxic boss wants to disrespect their employees and then wonders why "nobody wants to work anymore"? MY BROTHER IN CHRIST, YOU TREATED YOUR STAFF LIKE SHIT!
Especially when they act like that in situations where you go in on your day off, to help them out, when they call to see if you can come in, when someone calls out or doesn’t show up. Then, they wonder why the employees are reluctant to come in…, or why there’s such a high staff turnover. Unfortunately, the GM at my job (a fast food restaurant) is like that, she is too much of a Speedy Gonzales type (constantly rushing, and can’t accept the fact that not everyone is the same way), and gets even more uppity if there’s a line of cars (she can’t really handle it). They don’t seem to understand that on your day off, you aren’t necessarily glued to the phone, and might not even be in town (you might take a day trip somewhere.) To me, if they’re waiting in line, or can wait a few minutes, then they’re not in that much of a hurry. I just don’t really have the fast food mentality… If I’m going somewhere, and there’s a chance I might not make it in time, then I won’t even stop. We’re not the only place on that section of road that has fried chicken. In my job, I’m the only prep cook, but she’ll give me a lot of things to do, then gets upset if it takes a while to get it out, but in the other positions, there are sometimes 4 or 5 people…
Story 3: this reminds me of a former coworker who used to work for Pizza Hut as well as the job we both worked at. There’s a reason why so many former Pizza Hut employees refer to the place as “Pizza Hell”
My Great-nephew had that line: I’m going to bite you. My response: I’ll bite you back, and I have sharper teeth. My aunt gave me that line when I was his age. 😅
Story 3- I've had to walk out of a job like this before. I ended up quitting because I was feeling sick, but we didn't have enough workers because they didn't pay enough money. You got minimum wage and had to do everything. I was feeling sick, most likely because the building was basically a giant oven with a oven that runs 24/7, the sun being magnified by the windows, and no fan. I couldn't go home though because someone else have been working non-stop. Fair enough. Except when I went to the back because of an order, nothing was being done. Everyone was sitting in the cooler. So I'm here working myself sick because they didn't have enough workers and yet they are all sitting in the cooler with nothing done. I ended up quitting and after I quit, everyone else did too, including the store manger. They tried calling me to get me back because one person leaving meant not enough workers. Working your workers to the breaking point and not giving them money is an idiotic idea, but unfortunately a lot of places do it and then wonder why no one wants to work there.
Whoa. Re: story #3, that ex-boss is the kind of person the phrase, “psycho hose-beast” was invented for. Re: story #4, what kind of adult would EVER let her child go up and bite a complete stranger, unprovoked?! My flabber is gasted!!! 🤯😬
Story 4: So if the manager won't hold Karen accountable, you escalate beyond him and get him fired for allowing such amazingly awful behaviour. Plus, y'know, call cops and maybe CPS about the mother teaching her son to be a cannibal.
*Story 1- that first chick is a liar!* She said she’d never been in that store before, but she was a regular!!! 😳 *Story 2- RESTRAINING ORDER!!!* She shouldn’t just be trespassed from the property, she should have a restraining order against her so she can’t talk to OP or their boss again!
If a minor attacks or hurts someone, especially with the knowledge of the parent, it is a crime and a civil matter. Try to video the mother saying she will permit this. Call the police 911. The police may even call Child Protective Services. It is similar to being attacked by an animal, or by a deranged person.
This is what I call the "kids will be kids" mentality, i.e. "he lacks the mental capacity to understand why it's wrong, so why penalize him for it?" A mentality, I should note, that no real parent would ever seriously subscribe to.
The mother obviously didn't care what happens to other people, she smugly smiled when her kid drew blood from the guy that was defending himself against the child. It would serve her right if her kid did get hurt or catch a disease from his actions and quite frankly social services needs to be called on her before this ends up happening.
So the beach in the 1st story had never been there before, but the other employee AND the manager both knew her as a regular.? I almost thought she put the book there to hide it
What is it with people who own businesses in the food industry and think Gordon Ramsay is a great example of how to treat their workers? Even Ramsay had the awareness to cool down on the language and attitude because his kids were starting to copy what they saw of their dad on the tv.
Too little, too late, in my opinion. The man empowered a lot of petty tyrants by reinforcing the idea that abuse=good management, and I’ll never like the SOB no matter how much he’s softened his public persona.
When his employees are actually doing what they're supposed to, Ramsey is a pretty chill guy. But you get a cook who thinks he's worth a quarter million dollar salary and can run his own 5 star restaurant, yet can't even get a risotto or scallops right, I'd be losing my mind too. And the only time I've heard Ramsey get on the Jean-Philippe's case is when he brings him nonsense customer complaints he can handle himself, it's actually quite funny.
Actually, he kinda is. Oh sure, dont use Hells Kitchen as an example, but he only blows his top when the supposed professional chefs with years of experience are making basic errors like under or over cooking food.
And even then Gordan Ramsey is a decent human who has gone out of his way to help people, and knows how to elevate people when they do good work (when he described to a blind woman what her apple pie looked like that she had made in detail it was really heart warming). He also offered people with talent to go to culinary school on his dime and tried to start a prison program to teach valuable trade skills. And he warns people not to ask them to taste their food because he knows he'll be overly harsh with it.
Pizza Story: When Owner showed up at OP's door, OP should have snarled "Get the Fuck Off my Property and never come back or I'll call the Police and have you Arrested for Trespassing, Stalking and Harassment!" then slam the door in his face... If he doesn't immediately leave, I'd call 911 making sure the Operator can hear him through the door...THEN call Corporate back and report his Harassment and Stalking of an Employee he FIRED!!!
The last story reminds me of thetrope here: Karens let their kids to drink from the strangers bottles. Like kids grabbing the bottles from people's hands and drinking it. When people get reasonably angry/upset/surprised Karens respond with "don't worry. He/she is a kid and isn't sick with anything." The best response ive heard of is person wiping the bottleneck and saying "oh, I'm not worrying about myself but about the kid. Because I am infectious." Karens get all panicky and run to the hospital.
Final Story - Disgusting. An irresponsible mother letting her brat hit and bite people without any consideration for the consequences of both the people her child bit and her own child. Someone’s not going to take to kindly to being bit by a little kid and retaliate or the kid will get an infection because he bit someone who is sick with a terminal illness.
Last story: Some years my cousin encountered an undisciplined brat like that in a story. This little heathen was going around kicking people, men, women, children, didn't matter, and mom wasn't doing anything, even when people confronted her about it! Finally this hell spawn came running at my cousin with the intent of kicking him., Cousin grabbed his leg, held him kicking and screaming upside down while his mother came rushing up adding her own screams. Cousin never said a thing, called 911 on his cell with the free hand, told the operator that a woman had used her child to assault him, and was keeping the child incapacitated until the police arrived. When they got there he said he wanted to press charges against her for assault. There were security cameras! In my state a parent is 100% liable for the actions of minors below age 14. When all was said and done a total of 6-7 other people who had been attacked by the brat also files charges! All caught on video. I don't know all the details, but she was fined and on probation for several years, and forbidden to take that child in public!
Story 1 - We need more people like OP’s boss. I hope OP’s boss banned her from his store for her disgusting behavior towards OP. She may be a regular but having a customer like her is not worth the trouble.
I left a job once because the manager was verbally abusive. Employers need to realise that employees are not robots and they can refuse to work for you. The managers Is at fault the only reason why his restaurant will fail now is because he isolated himself from all of his employees with his abusive and stalking behaviour. If I were OP, I would be getting a restraining order against that ex-manager
That last one, the OP should have called the cops on the mom and pressed charges, human bites can turn very infected very fast because of all the nasty germs in people's months, essentially some dumb kid who probably isn't the best at brushing his teeth.
The kid in the last story is lucky he didn't end up on the floor after someone slapped the snot out of him after he bit them. That would have been my first response. My second response would be to call the police and have the mother charged with assault. Then I would have found a lawyer and sued her.
Story 1: As just about anyone who works in retail knows, it is ridiculous how often we see merchandise left in sections they're not supposed to be in. It is not our fault that such customers can't be bothered to put things back where they found them. OP is very fortunate to have a boss who has no tolerance for anyone abusing his employees. Story 4: That kid is looking at a one-way ticket to juvie if he keeps that up, as well as his mother on the hook for clearly enabling that assault. I don't care how old he his, the little sociopath is not gonna get away with his little game of rabies.
The mother's actions are a crime "Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor." It can rage from misdemeanor charges to a felony depending on the level of deliqency. When it comes to the little brat biting people to the point of drawing blood and laughing about it while the mom gets smug, it could very easily lead to felony level punishment for both of them, never mind the prospect of diseases or the intended victim reacing poorly and giving the brat a brutal beatdown, and the mother getting more of the same when she tries to step in...
The bitting kid story, I love what the guy did. My friend's nephew, when the was little, had a real bitting problem. His mom finally told his sisters to bite him back. It didn't take long for him to quit bitting.
Given that I think she set up the employee in order to ruin their day, for a sociopathic sadist the act likely did put her in a good mood. As she was apparently a regular, the real reason she didn't demand a manager was because she knew they would immediately ruin her fun.
Last story: I hope OP's brother got his arm checked. A human bite is loaded with germs and he possibly needed a tetanus shot. Plus, I would have called the police on the mother. She needed to be brought back to reality. If a child bit her 'little angel'...NOT...she would have demanded the police immediately and sued for hospital costs and anything else she could get. Karens don't learn until they are LEGALLY made to face their responsibility and letting her child bite strangers could get him hurt as in slapped in the mouth or actually biting an AIDS patient or someone with HIV. I see jailtime in this child's future when he gets older.
Last story. Kid's going to end up with hepatitis at the very least. And the parents with a lawsuit because if that brat bites ,someone else is going to sue. Them, the shop etc. I would
Story 3: After the boss goes bankrupt and sells the business, OP should get the former crew together to buy it. It sounds like the place was doing decent business even run poorly. Run well it could be a good opportunity.
Story 2: If my neighbor pulled that "it's a Federal offense to tamper with mail", I would have pointed to the package and said, "that isn't _mail,_ it's a parcel delivered by a courier. 'Mail' is only legally mail if the Post Office delivers it. So take your Federal BS and stick it." Mail is what the USPS handles, is paid postage, and delivers, usually to a regulation mailbox. Amazon, UPS, FedEx, DHL, etc., _are not agents of the Post Office,_ they are private courier companies. The items they deliver are only protected by normal laws regarding private property. It's illegal to steal packages, but it's only a local police matter, not Federal. Try taking a UPS package theft to the Postmaster, and he'll laugh at you, and tell you to go to the police station. Her behavior is harassment, especially the going to your boss crap. Sue her ass.
On the last story actually Hep C is far more common than HIV/AIDS and far more infectious as the virus has a much longer life span outside the body than HIV,I learned this from various safety meetings when I was working.
If that was me and the manager wasn't controlling his wife and kid. I'd be on corporate store step. Did he wouldn't be having a job there. And if that kid would bit me I would have called the cops. Let her husband lose his job then you know what she won't be in the store anymore.
The last story,mayhaps,the mother was training her son,as a 🧛♂️ Vampire,and he took it seriously! There are wierder people out there,but definitely Opie,did the right thing,and I hope,that there was a lesson learned! Thank you! 😇
Story 3: "I need you! Come back to work!" "Yes. YOU need ME. Not the other way around. Now you can either get the hell off my property or we can discuss how things are going to DRASTICALLY change, because it's become VERY apparent how VALUABLE I am as an employee to you. Do you understand?"
Story 2: OP needs to get a No Contact restraining order on her siting the 2 attempts to get OP fired...if she calls his work again she can be arrested & charged. Story 3: Call 911 and make sure it's on the recording that you have told him to leave the property...have him arrested for trespassing, harassment & stalking. Story 4: OP's brother did the best thing possible considering the situation. Karen will be keeping a better reign on the brat from now on. Excellent correction of a Karen/brat combo!
It's so weird to me that kids would run around biting people like that's normal behavior and then having a parent that just lets them do it on top of that. I would be calling CPS cause clearly the kid has mental health issues that the mother is not treating.
Only mail (or packages) that are in a mailbox delivered by the post office and removed from said mailbox can a person be sent to jail as US mail stolen is a federal offence. Since the package was sent UPS it is not a federal offence, hence no jail time.
Last Story In every other story, reddit tells pople not to fake allergies or illnesses, but this time literally everyone: "Brother did the right thing!" And I can't agree more.....
Last story: More likely to be a problem for a kid that goes around biting adults is Hepatitis. There's 3 types & 1 of those is HIGHLY transmissable just from a small amount of exposure to infected blood, yet you won't know for years you got it because it takes that long to build up enough of a count to get a + on the test. Someone I know is a doctor & they got exposed from a patient that came in the hospital bleeding. Despite standard prevention (gloves, etc) they still got enough blood splattered on them around the face when the patient thrashed around (if it gets in your eyes or mouth even a little then you're exposed) so it had to be documented, & then sure enough years later a regular checkup showed it in the doctor's blood. If you don't know you were exposed & to keep testing for that specifically, then it can be too late when you find out & you'll already have liver damage.
Story 3: OP and all his former Co-Worker should report him to the labor board as the ex boss is making them work more then 40 hours plus he's not even paying them overtime which is a labor law violation. Meaning if they took him to court he is force to pay $1000 for everyone of his former employee that he never paid overtime for. Story 4: Karen would be grinning when someone with a bad temper gets bitten by her kid, grab the kid, walk toward the Karen, and start yelling in her face to control the kid or next time he comes in to shop he'll put a muzzle on the kid if he see him running around trying to bite people like an uncontrollable dog. She also won't be grinning when her kid bite someone then the bite victim decide to sue her for her kid biting him. If Karen try to lie in court about her kid only bite in self defense the victim can easily tell the court that her kid has a history of biting people unprovoked and the reason why the store never did anything about is because her husband is the manager of the store. End result Karen lost the lawsuit, her husband gets demoted, she gets banned due to her kid's behavior, and CPS comes to take her child to her grandparents due to her not being a good mother for not teaching the kid that biting people for fun is illegal.
Last story: I hope and pray, she and her child learned their lesson! There is so much more things out there that could make her child sick or die! Hep C, and any other illnesses that are transmitted through body fluid! And I wonder if she ever thought that her son could give something to him, when bites others?
Third story: Speaking of self destructing. From entitled, power-tripping to delusional. What kind of dr*gs he consumed to demand people who quit to go to work. Also, there's no such thing as work abandonment, that's called quitting and not allowing that is called slavery and that's illegal.
The last story with the crotch goblin biter. It would be so awkward for mommy dearest if someone from the police of child services got bit. Probably be quite awkward for the business also having the manager involved in a feral child story
Story 3: story time... I worked for a franchise known for their footlongs, milkshakes, and happy hour commercials. Worked there for 3 years, 2 of which I was the opening manager. This place was beyond toxic and short staffed for similar reasons only it was the GM that worked almost daily riding our buttholes and causing all the grief. Right at the start of covid with regulations were made with essential workplaces to provide paid sick leave etc, we were told, and I quote, "Anyone using covid as an excuse to not come in would just be fired..." and me having 3 kids and two disabled adults I was caring for was like okay so this will be like last year when I got sick with walking pneumonia/laryngitis for 2 and a half months and still had to come in 6 days a week. Awesome. So when I first got sick with covid, my symptoms weren't typical, about 2 weeks of a low grade fever and feeling unwell before my fever finally spiked high enough to meet the criteria for the test, continued to go into work since I couldn't "prove" I had covid. The day it finally spiked it was clear I was unwell. GM comes in all hey whats up why you look like that, so I try to explain, she proceeds to yell, cuss me out, mock me for being effing sick, gaslight me like she never said we'd be fired for calling in sick, send me home but not before telling me to fill up the ice machine (love how she thought yo this is bad but oh well touch peoples ice still anyhow), then had the utter audacity, to text me that same night to see if I'd be coming in the next day. Told her no, I was going to wait til Monday at least for a note from my doc.. got the note, sent it to her showing I was on quarentine for 2 weeks, and her ass tried to go off about how "someone saw me at Walmart the day I was sent home." Yeah, because I already knew I was about to go on quarentine so I had to stock up on supplies and food and medicine for everyone, which I was waiting on the perscriptions and trying to keep as far away from people as I could when (enter name here) saw me. Not that what I do off the clock is any of your effing business to begin with. That night was when my fever spiked high enough to get tested. Got tested that Monday, sent her a pic of the note, then called the owner a week in and told him I would off myself before I'd ever work under that woman again. His solution? To try and convince me to work for the other store instead because the GM there doesn't yell or cuss. Um. How about you let go of the reason your turnover rate at this store is so high you dumbsh*t. Ending of the story? I never went back and never will, and I learned a very, valuable lesson in all of it. No matter how many times a company touts how replaceable you are, remember that at home and with those that love you and depend on you you are absolutely irreplaceable and won't do any good to them if you're dead.
The one about the kid biting people... Do you have any idea how many bacteria are in the mouth? I would have told her that I was going to the emergency room to get a tetanus (and rabies,, see how she likes that one) shot and she was going to pay for all of it. And then sue her when she refused, for the emergency room visit, mental stress, post traumatic syndrome, anything a lawyer could stick in there. Hit the pocketbook, and you will always get their attention.
When people know the kid likes to bite them, use some really powerful hot sauce and see what happens ….oh and any mother that lets her kids do that sort of thing ,should be reported to CPS
Story 1: Wonderful to know that there are bosses who will stick up for their staff like this guy. I’m sick of stories where bosses throw staff under the bus just to save a patronage that’s not even worth it. Last Story: This woman has the utter GALL to try and blame OP and make disparaging remarks on HIV/AIDS when it was her own fault for allowing her brat to attack random people, not knowing whether or not they’re sick or vulnerable. And what if her son was the one that was sick? Then she herself would be responsible for a potential outbreak and/or the avoidable deaths of others just because she didn’t want to be an adult and discipline her little monster
Last story, I'd be inclined to say I was in the middle of rabies prevention shots. The kid would then need to get the whole round of shots, too so it would teach the kid as well as the mom.
The third story reminds me of how my brother was working at Papa John's before the lawsuit, and his job was near slavery it was an absolute nightmare. Thanks to that driver who started the lawsuit, my brother quit and signed the petition, and a month later, he got a $600 check in the mail
"If I werer your boss, I'd fire you.:" "If you were my boss, you'd be up for charges of breaking labor laws and creating a hostile work environment, and you would owe me SOO MUCH MONEY!"
Story 3, I would absolutely LOVE to see that boss try and make those deliveries himself, and realise he is also "lazy" because he can't make 10000 deliveries per minute, let alone live off the minimum wage it pays. I hate those types so much
Last story - If I were OP's brother, I would have calmly pulled out my phone, took a picture of the wound and the grinning asshole, then called 911. Since the woman was married to the store's manager, I'd also sue the store for mental damages, because who expects to have to defend themselves from such violence while trying to shop?
Story 4: There are some places you should just never go without being ready to record. Evidence of the manager's son attacking customers would royally screw up all of their lives.
Story 3: what crazy boss. He’s clearly unaware of any of his own actions, lacking any self awareness or empathy to others. And it’s super ironic how he thinks it’s his former employees’ fault for his awful business, when he’s the one abusing them. And the worst part, he says he has children? He’s likely lying about that to spread guilt, but if he’s telling the truth, he definitely shouldn’t have them.
Last story: “Let me bite you!”
Now, I know punching children is generally frowned upon, buuuut…
"If you bite me, I have the legal right to smack you for assaulting me. So...your choice."
I agree bite me and find out kid
That's not a child, that's a feral goblin.
I think my response would have been this: "Lady, if he bites me, I'll bite you. If he draws blood, so will I." I wonder what her response to that would have been?
I bite back, kid or not
Story 1: Misery love company. Got a feeling she found the book beforehand, hide it from OP so she can be a jerk to them. And the fact the owner knew her before maybe she did it before to the other employees.
Absolutely. What are the odds of running across a misplaced book so conveniently? 🤣🤣 Karen sounds like she needs a psych eval!
That was my exact thought. Especially when it came up later that she was a regular. Didn't she say at some point "I, a customer who has never been here before, knows the bookstore better than you?" so not only did she magically find the exact misplaced book she was looking for very quickly, but then exaggerated the whole thing until she got the new girl in tears. and during the entire lecture, at no time did she ask for a manager or owner even though she apparently know that person.
@@ladybelle6506and I don’t think the manager would lie so something’s definitely wrong with her. Poor OP
Also, the employee checked the computer and it said the book was out of stock, but she finds a copy. Makes me wonder if she paid for a copy that she already owned purely for the purpose of making someone else's life miserable. Hope the manager bans her from the store.
As soon she went into Karen mode, shoulda snatched up the book and declared it was another customer's book and they must've dropped it on the way out. The put the book behind the counter. No book for you, Karenujia!!
Last story. The MOTHER should have been arrested and lose custody for allowing her child to attack people.
Not only the police should have been called, but CPS.
Just thing, one day she, her kid, AND her ending husband are all gonna be in serious trouble because one day that kid will bite the wrong person.
I question that last story. Hospitals and such are mandatory reporters. "My kid bit someone that said they have HIV" would have prompted a call to the cps, local health department, and maybe even CDC. HIV testing is not a one and done for new exposure along with the kid and family may have been put on a medical watchlist.
@@robertpeacock1635man I hope so, because HIV is only one of many infectious diseases that can be transmitted through bodily fluids! That woman should be reported for negligence and endangering a child.
Did should also be demoted, fired or at least transferred to a dead end position for condoning it
Story 3: This guy refuses to raise the wage, calls everyone else "lazy" and "entitled," fails to maintain a staff, and even blames the one employee he overworked the most for his own failures. Yeah, no wonder his business pretty much imploded, he literally does not know how to be a supporting boss.
People leave bad managers.
I truly do hope that OP does get an attorney together with his other coworkers. The way that guy acts is totally erratic, and he may he brazen enough to hurt someone.
He does not know how to be a boss, period.
Is it wrong for me to assume that I think he’s a Gen Baby Boomer?
@@Stonedsheepu8906 No
The last story reminds me of my mom.. some little brat of a kid did that to her ' i'm going to bite you' she cold as ice said "I'll bite you back' now.. imagine this tiny little older lady, wearing a tiedye shirt and a matching hat in a wheelchair
the brat bit her, she bit him right back but harder, he screamed bloody murder his mom screamed at my mom 'why did you bite my child' my mom's reply was ' is that your child? I thought it was a feral one' sweet as anything I was standing behind her wheelchair, recording, I had been for a while so even if the stores cameras missed something i had it on my phone.. i missed what mom said, something about making her child behave.. his mom went ' DON'T YOU TELL ME HOW TO RAISE MY CHILD" to which my dear mom went "i'm not telling you how, darling, i'm telling you TO raise your child." god i miss that woman
The Karen mother in last story is risking a lawsuit against herself. Human bites breaking the skin can cause nasty infections, and a victim should sue her for costs of medical treatment.
Not only that. What if the hell spawn really does bite someone with aid or hiv. Treatment and medicine for transmitted diseases are not cheap either but with job her husband have they can afford it.
Maybe not just a lawsuit but what about child endangerment or neglect? Letting your child be exposed to potentially infectious diseases. Staph is on people’s skin normally, one loose tooth and the kid could get an infection like that in his bloodstream.
Dad is too, especially if it's a Corporate chain store...
More, the FATHER, who is the manager of the store, is risking a massive law suit for creating/allowing a dangerous situation to repeatedly occur in the store. If he isn't the owner, the owner or company that owns the store would absolutely DESTROY his family's entire life, as he is personally directly responsible for each and every injury his wife and child cause. The man is an idiot. If the owner knows he's allowing that situation to keep happening, they're just ripe for a payout to someone, who absolutely will open the door to a dozen more.
I mean, I have a compromised immune system due to a digestive disorder, and the human mouth is more bacteria-ridden than a dog's. If a kid bit me, I'd probably end up hospitalized for weeks, and then home-bound for months. You can bet I'd have a line-up of giddy ambulance chasers ready to ensure I never have to work again to support my current lifestyle, pay my medical bills from now until I die (in maybe another 50 years?) and absolutely ensure every penny-farthing that family ever manages to scrape off a sewer grate goes into MY pocket. Mom and Dad will be lucky to afford a used mini-van to live out of, and that kid will spend his life paying off his family's responsibilities. No college, no trade school, and if he manages to father a child, that money would go to me before his baby-mama ever sees a dime of child support.
Very stupid parents.
Oh hell yeah she's risking a lawsuit. The mouth has some nasty germs. I remember a Forensic Files episode about a woman who was murdered in her hotel room by the hotel's maintenance guy. She had bit the guy's hand as he was attacking her . That's how they found out he did it. The guy went to the ER to treat it but he told the doctor he scratched it on a dumpster or something but the doctor knew better. The doctor took pics of his hand and he swabbed it and sent it to the lab and found out he had some obscure bacteria only found in the mouth. I believe they swabbed the mouth of the victim and found the same bacteria and realized she bit him.
I'd totally be reminding the karen that 1. if her child assaults someone bc he's so young she's going to be held liable and 2. it's still self defense 🤷♀
Third, if Karen doesn't correct that behavior now she better forget about retirement. Because she'll be using that money to bond out her menace of a child when he terrorizes people at an age where it's most definitely not tolerated.
in the last one, should charge the mother for assault through son..
Hey Fluff, back in the 1990's I worked for an AIDS Charity, I had to learn about the disease firsthand from people infected with AIDS. I also had to learn first aid treatments; every time I so much as had a papercut, I was going crazy with fear.
In the end, immediately after getting trained to work as a worker; we lost 90% of our clientele, this was a direct result of the AIDS Cocktail coming into widespread use. Each of the clients died immediately after starting treatment because their livers were compromised due to the AIDS virus. The agency is still in my hometown, but now they treat anybody who suffers from HIV, AIDS, HEP C, and any other blood borne pathogen.
Sadly, I'm not longer working there. Sometimes, like hearing the story of the Karen refusing to police her screaming brat who threatened to bite someone who could be immuno-compromised; makes me so upset. If that little shit had gotten infected; you know Damn well that Karen would blame the victim, not her crappy parenting!
I read a similar post where the kid was running through the store causing havoc, and the mother didn't stop it, and didn't get banned, because she was the owner's wife. But the owner was away so much that he never heard, or maybe didn't listen, about the complaints.
The kid grabbed the ear of support animal that was helping a man who had seizures, and bit down as hard as he could on the dog's ear, and the dog turned and bit the kid, badly.
The mother called the cops, the cops both viewed the footage, and apparently took the recording footage WITH them, while the owner's caretaker took the owner and the dog to the vet because the dog needed to get stitches. The mother got arrested, the kid got taken to the hospital due to the fact the dog bit his face.
Long story short, the court stated the dog was NOT aggressive, the kid hurt the dog and the dog was defending itself. The owner was shocked that his wife had allowed things to get that bad, and the kid got time in Juvie.
Kids young enough to think it's okay biting animals are generally not sent to juvie.
ah, good ending
Juvie...how old was this kid? And if he's old enough to go to juvie...why was he still biting period???
@@robingibson6561 According to the post, the kid was 10.
@BridgetKF 10!!! He was entirely too old for this type of behavior. I thought he might have been 3-5 yo. The mother deserved whatever came of this, she fafo and it wasn't in her favor.
Oh god, that last story reminds me of my own. This lady had her own son who was maybe 7 or 8 who would walk up to people, try steal their wallets or purses, and would bite those who would stop him. This was back in 2001 where I was 18 at the time. Well, that kid tried to steal from me and I of course stopped him from reaching into my pockets. Lo and behold he bit me, hard enough to draw blood. Immediately I called 911 as I had one of the small Nokia phones (yes the one that people claim they can not break), for two reasons: 1, I was just assaulted, and 2, I have hepatitis C, I was born with it because my mother has it. Thankfully, I never was affected by the disease, but I can still give it to others through my blood. The cops arrived first and I informed them that both myself and the child need paramedics immediately. The cop was confused until I told him I have hep C and his face went pale since I was obviously bleeding from the bite. The mother even tried to attack me once she was told her child needed to go to the hospital asap due to possibly contracting the disease. I did press charges at first, but dropped them after discovering the child's fate. Sadly, yes, the kid did contract the disease, and passed away 7 years later from it. I only know this because the mother filed a lawsuit against me claiming it was my fault her child died due to getting the disease from biting me. The case was dropped after I gave her lawyer the police report on how her son got the disease. I did get an apology letter from the lawyer after as the mother failed to explain how I gave her son a blood borne disease.
I do feel bad the child died, but it does not keep me up at night as I know it was his parents responsibility to properly raise their kid to not bite random people.
Yeah it was definitely the parents responsibility to raise teach or whatever to the child. They let him bite you and look what happened in the end. Absolutely no fault of yours.
I remember the Nokia 3310.
@@tailsofchaos Thank you. I only knew I even had Hep C was from me trying to donate blood a few months prior this incident.
And yes it was the Nokia 3310 I had @JamesDavy2009 .
and the mother still had the gall to try and sue you because HER SON bite you, contracted hep C and unfortunately passed away from it. She still refused, after all those years, to accept the fact that IF she had stopped that behavior before it got started he would still be here. Some people just don't learn...smh.
@@robingibson6561 And those people never will. Even when they are at fault
Second story, you can file a restraining order where you could have her held by law to not contact your workplace if she's known on record to lie/slander you out of malicious intent. Breaking the lawful order can result heavy fine and/or jail time. Know your local laws to be sure.
Those entitled people still won't learn their lesson but they would be punished. And that would stop them one way or another.
On the last story, corporate should be called and the manager should be FIRED for letting this happen.
When OP and the first story said they were almost driven to tears because of Karen, I wanted to give them a hug 🫂
Wow, Karen in the second story sounds like one of those people who just want to watch the world burn
Wow, the third story is just completely insane 🤯
That d-bag boss really had the ⚾️⚾️ to tell OP to “grow up” and to “be a man” when he himself could accept that an ex employee quit and that everyone else was smart enough to join him in unemployment rather than dealing with their (to say the least) toxic boss
The fourth Karen wasn’t raising a child. She was basically raising a rabid dog trapped in the body of a young boy
Story 3: I seen the inside of a pizza restaurant before and usually I see at least 5-9 employees either managing, cooking, or waiting to drive/deliver the pizza. So the idiot manager was just plain bad at his job not retaining enough staff to keep it running.
How much do you want to bet that the reason the Karen in the first story found the book where she did is because she put it there,Like I've said in other posts I worked retail for close 15 years and seen it all from those kind of customers it would not surprise me
@@Catherinewelter-z6dI thought the same thing. Her life is sh*t and she just wants to spread around her unhappiness. She setup OP, she's really a pathetic, angry person.
People need to toughen up and just bite back at customers who are assholes.
Story 2: The packages were delivered by UPS, not USPS. That makes a difference, you can’t be charged with mail theft unless it was delivered by USPS as UPS is a private company not affiliated with the US Government.
Even if it is USPS, if a package or parcel (not mail or letters, different rules) is mistakenly delivered to you, you are allowed to keep it by Federal law. It has to be something purchased from or sent by a seller, but Federal rules issued by the FTC allow you to keep that package. Again, it's limited to parcels containing product(s) purchased from a seller or retailer.
@@EnosEugenius Really? I did not know that.
@@EnosEugenius um wtf are you talking about? It's still THEFT if you keep it lol
@@EnosEugenius that is when a company sends you unsolicited goods. It is being sent to you with the expectation that you will purchase, but you are not under any legal obligation to pay. This does not apply to packages that are not addressed to you and do not have your address on it.
@@balanc-joy9187 you didn’t know that because it’s not true. That is for when something is addressed to you that you did not order. Not when your neighbors package gets left at your doorstep mistakenly.
The last story?
If some little brat is biting other people, I'd be more worried for the people he bites than the brat. Human bites are worse for infections than dog bites, and who knows what an immunocompromised person could get from the kid?
Seriously, if you are bitten and the skin broken, get yourself to the hospital! Also, call the police, and press charges on either the biter (if old enough) or it's parent.
that is so true. a human bite can get so badly infected if not treated straightaway that it will require surgery to remove all the infected tissue, and if that wasn't bad enough that can easily go septic and that is nothing to laugh at
Bites from people can be worse than dog bites for infections. I would have filed a police report, had the footage of the incident looked at, gone to the hospital, and made sure she was charged and liable for the treatment.
That first story it feels like that lady might have hidden the item there herself considering how out of the way of where it was supposed to be it was and how she just happened to just have found it in such an out of the way area. Along with her pushing the idea that she was never there before. To what end I really dont know but it really feels like she set that up
The last story was hilarious. Something similar happened in a waiting room at a doctor's office. There was a child going around kicking the people in waiting room while the parent did nothing. When the child got in front of my Sister, a School Librarian, she stopped him just before he leaned back to kick her, and she yelled loud enough to wake up the dead, "Lady if your child kicks me, I will drop kick him to the parking lot just before I walk across this waiting room and send you out to join him!" Everyone including the receptionists and other awaiting patients applauded her and said a big "Thank You" to my 105 lb sister! She was my Shero! 😂
Story 4: How the FREAK does Karen allow her kid to BITE people? That's assault
Last Story I would not be talking... You get the wrong person, someone with mental health issues, PTSD, Special Forces Combat trained Police combat trained to react 1st- If that kid survives the ambulance trip he is going to be in a coma for a while. There are people out there who will blind rage on someone without realizing who they are raging on and they will defend themselves to the death unless stopped. I can't imagine in any world where letting a child of any age think it is okay to run up to and bite random people... The kids in the last story were lucky the posters were rational enough to intellectually fight back versus a PTSD or mental health blind rage.
Story 2: And remember, all of this started when her relative crossed property lines and OP confronted him nicely about it.
Karen decided that OP does not deserve a nice job and life because of that, and it lead to the package situation and harassing OP's boss. I think a lawsuit is needed to shut her up
Nah. Just put the video of the latest encounter up on the community FB bulletin board.
@@condorboss3339both
I was a school bus driver and there was a girl that liked to bite people. The teachers tried to correct the behavior but her mother thought it was funny so she kept biting until she bit me. I got her mother's information from the school and pressed charges for encouraging her daughter to bite people. That girl was made to apologize and the mom had to take parenting classes.
A regular customer who as never been there before? She absolutely hid that book previously, maybe some kind of weird ego trip, so that she can pick on new employees, glad the boss had OP's back!
Tell Karen “if that kid bites me, I’m gonna bite you. You obviously don’t have a problem with it”
I love how people treat their employees like crap, and then complain that “nobody wants to work anymore”
Exactly! A toxic boss wants to disrespect their employees and then wonders why "nobody wants to work anymore"? MY BROTHER IN CHRIST, YOU TREATED YOUR STAFF LIKE SHIT!
It's not that your employees don't want to work, they just don't want to work for YOU!
Especially when they act like that in situations where you go in on your day off, to help them out, when they call to see if you can come in, when someone calls out or doesn’t show up. Then, they wonder why the employees are reluctant to come in…, or why there’s such a high staff turnover. Unfortunately, the GM at my job (a fast food restaurant) is like that, she is too much of a Speedy Gonzales type (constantly rushing, and can’t accept the fact that not everyone is the same way), and gets even more uppity if there’s a line of cars (she can’t really handle it). They don’t seem to understand that on your day off, you aren’t necessarily glued to the phone, and might not even be in town (you might take a day trip somewhere.) To me, if they’re waiting in line, or can wait a few minutes, then they’re not in that much of a hurry. I just don’t really have the fast food mentality… If I’m going somewhere, and there’s a chance I might not make it in time, then I won’t even stop. We’re not the only place on that section of road that has fried chicken. In my job, I’m the only prep cook, but she’ll give me a lot of things to do, then gets upset if it takes a while to get it out, but in the other positions, there are sometimes 4 or 5 people…
The mother in the last post should be charged with child negligence. Letting your kid run around attacking people is dangerous for the kid.
Not only for the attacking kid but also for the people being attacked and bitten and infected by human bite germs and bacteria.
Story 3: this reminds me of a former coworker who used to work for Pizza Hut as well as the job we both worked at. There’s a reason why so many former Pizza Hut employees refer to the place as “Pizza Hell”
My Great-nephew had that line: I’m going to bite you.
My response: I’ll bite you back, and I have sharper teeth.
My aunt gave me that line when I was his age. 😅
Story 2 - I would file a restraining order against that neighbor and if that doesn’t work sue her for trespassing, harassment, and defamation.
Story 3- I've had to walk out of a job like this before. I ended up quitting because I was feeling sick, but we didn't have enough workers because they didn't pay enough money. You got minimum wage and had to do everything. I was feeling sick, most likely because the building was basically a giant oven with a oven that runs 24/7, the sun being magnified by the windows, and no fan. I couldn't go home though because someone else have been working non-stop. Fair enough. Except when I went to the back because of an order, nothing was being done. Everyone was sitting in the cooler. So I'm here working myself sick because they didn't have enough workers and yet they are all sitting in the cooler with nothing done. I ended up quitting and after I quit, everyone else did too, including the store manger. They tried calling me to get me back because one person leaving meant not enough workers. Working your workers to the breaking point and not giving them money is an idiotic idea, but unfortunately a lot of places do it and then wonder why no one wants to work there.
kid biting. What the hell! SHE should have been arrested and sued!
That kid karen could totally be arrested for that. Mustve happened in a small town where the police arent used to dealing with situations like these.
19:18 I agree. It's one thing to yell at your employees at work, but to go to their houses to yell at them is a whole new level.
Not to mention yelling at them in front of the customers.
On the package story, I'd just have the package returned as misdelivered.
Whoa. Re: story #3, that ex-boss is the kind of person the phrase, “psycho hose-beast” was invented for. Re: story #4, what kind of adult would EVER let her child go up and bite a complete stranger, unprovoked?! My flabber is gasted!!! 🤯😬
Story 4: So if the manager won't hold Karen accountable, you escalate beyond him and get him fired for allowing such amazingly awful behaviour. Plus, y'know, call cops and maybe CPS about the mother teaching her son to be a cannibal.
If a mom let her child bite me, I would be calling the police immediately.

If a minor attacks or hurts someone, especially with the knowledge of the parent, it is a crime and a civil matter. Try to video the mother saying she will permit this. Call the police 911. The police may even call Child Protective Services. It is similar to being attacked by an animal, or by a deranged person.
How does the mother know her kid won't infect someone with an unknown disease?
Because the mother knows her child is "perfect" and couldn't possibly have any diseases.
@@madisonrocca7100 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@madisonrocca7100 And wouldn't care if he did.
This is what I call the "kids will be kids" mentality, i.e. "he lacks the mental capacity to understand why it's wrong, so why penalize him for it?" A mentality, I should note, that no real parent would ever seriously subscribe to.
The mother obviously didn't care what happens to other people, she smugly smiled when her kid drew blood from the guy that was defending himself against the child. It would serve her right if her kid did get hurt or catch a disease from his actions and quite frankly social services needs to be called on her before this ends up happening.

Too little, too late, in my opinion. The man empowered a lot of petty tyrants by reinforcing the idea that abuse=good management, and I’ll never like the SOB no matter how much he’s softened his public persona.
When his employees are actually doing what they're supposed to, Ramsey is a pretty chill guy. But you get a cook who thinks he's worth a quarter million dollar salary and can run his own 5 star restaurant, yet can't even get a risotto or scallops right, I'd be losing my mind too. And the only time I've heard Ramsey get on the Jean-Philippe's case is when he brings him nonsense customer complaints he can handle himself, it's actually quite funny.
Actually, he kinda is. Oh sure, dont use Hells Kitchen as an example, but he only blows his top when the supposed professional chefs with years of experience are making basic errors like under or over cooking food.
And even then Gordan Ramsey is a decent human who has gone out of his way to help people, and knows how to elevate people when they do good work (when he described to a blind woman what her apple pie looked like that she had made in detail it was really heart warming). He also offered people with talent to go to culinary school on his dime and tried to start a prison program to teach valuable trade skills. And he warns people not to ask them to taste their food because he knows he'll be overly harsh with it.
First story; boss sees the 'regular' customer come in again on her next visit "GTFO and never come back. You are banned for life"
Exactly what I would do.
We can hope!
@@artos6209 She also would probably be blacklisted at every library too.
I'd be calling the CPS on this mother who has a child running around the store doing whatever he wants and especially biting.
Pizza Story: When Owner showed up at OP's door, OP should have snarled "Get the Fuck Off my Property and never come back or I'll call the Police and have you Arrested for Trespassing, Stalking and Harassment!" then slam the door in his face...
If he doesn't immediately leave, I'd call 911 making sure the Operator can hear him through the door...THEN call Corporate back and report his Harassment and Stalking of an Employee he FIRED!!!
The last story reminds me of thetrope here:
Karens let their kids to drink from the strangers bottles. Like kids grabbing the bottles from people's hands and drinking it. When people get reasonably angry/upset/surprised Karens respond with "don't worry. He/she is a kid and isn't sick with anything."
The best response ive heard of is person wiping the bottleneck and saying "oh, I'm not worrying about myself but about the kid. Because I am infectious."
Karens get all panicky and run to the hospital.
Final Story - Disgusting. An irresponsible mother letting her brat hit and bite people without any consideration for the consequences of both the people her child bit and her own child.
Someone’s not going to take to kindly to being bit by a little kid and retaliate or the kid will get an infection because he bit someone who is sick with a terminal illness.
Suddenly my phone pipes up with this video. I didn’t even had it in my hand… guess the universe loves fluff as much as I do❤
Last story: Some years my cousin encountered an undisciplined brat like that in a story. This little heathen was going around kicking people, men, women, children, didn't matter, and mom wasn't doing anything, even when people confronted her about it! Finally this hell spawn came running at my cousin with the intent of kicking him., Cousin grabbed his leg, held him kicking and screaming upside down while his mother came rushing up adding her own screams. Cousin never said a thing, called 911 on his cell with the free hand, told the operator that a woman had used her child to assault him, and was keeping the child incapacitated until the police arrived. When they got there he said he wanted to press charges against her for assault. There were security cameras! In my state a parent is 100% liable for the actions of minors below age 14. When all was said and done a total of 6-7 other people who had been attacked by the brat also files charges! All caught on video. I don't know all the details, but she was fined and on probation for several years, and forbidden to take that child in public!
Story 1 - We need more people like OP’s boss. I hope OP’s boss banned her from his store for her disgusting behavior towards OP.
She may be a regular but having a customer like her is not worth the trouble.
I left a job once because the manager was verbally abusive. Employers need to realise that employees are not robots and they can refuse to work for you.
The managers Is at fault the only reason why his restaurant will fail now is because he isolated himself from all of his employees with his abusive and stalking behaviour. If I were OP, I would be getting a restraining order against that ex-manager
That last one, the OP should have called the cops on the mom and pressed charges, human bites can turn very infected very fast because of all the nasty germs in people's months, essentially some dumb kid who probably isn't the best at brushing his teeth.
Story 2. Cameras are truly the new watch dogs.
Story 2; I bet Karen doesn't have a job/ with nothing to do, no wonder she acts crazy
Story 1: "What is this? This is ugly, but I guess I'll take it."
Its so sweet that Karen remembers her husband's wedding vows to the letter.
The kid in the last story is lucky he didn't end up on the floor after someone slapped the snot out of him after he bit them. That would have been my first response. My second response would be to call the police and have the mother charged with assault. Then I would have found a lawyer and sued her.
Story 1: As just about anyone who works in retail knows, it is ridiculous how often we see merchandise left in sections they're not supposed to be in. It is not our fault that such customers can't be bothered to put things back where they found them. OP is very fortunate to have a boss who has no tolerance for anyone abusing his employees.
Story 4: That kid is looking at a one-way ticket to juvie if he keeps that up, as well as his mother on the hook for clearly enabling that assault. I don't care how old he his, the little sociopath is not gonna get away with his little game of rabies.
The mother's actions are a crime "Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor." It can rage from misdemeanor charges to a felony depending on the level of deliqency. When it comes to the little brat biting people to the point of drawing blood and laughing about it while the mom gets smug, it could very easily lead to felony level punishment for both of them, never mind the prospect of diseases or the intended victim reacing poorly and giving the brat a brutal beatdown, and the mother getting more of the same when she tries to step in...
The bitting kid story, I love what the guy did. My friend's nephew, when the was little, had a real bitting problem. His mom finally told his sisters to bite him back. It didn't take long for him to quit bitting.
Biting
That woman should be really delusional if she thought she was in good mood after ruining someone else's day
Given that I think she set up the employee in order to ruin their day, for a sociopathic sadist the act likely did put her in a good mood. As she was apparently a regular, the real reason she didn't demand a manager was because she knew they would immediately ruin her fun.
Last story: I hope OP's brother got his arm checked. A human bite is loaded with germs and he possibly needed a tetanus shot. Plus, I would have called the police on the mother. She needed to be brought back to reality. If a child bit her 'little angel'...NOT...she would have demanded the police immediately and sued for hospital costs and anything else she could get. Karens don't learn until they are LEGALLY made to face their responsibility and letting her child bite strangers could get him hurt as in slapped in the mouth or actually biting an AIDS patient or someone with HIV. I see jailtime in this child's future when he gets older.
So do I.
Last story. Kid's going to end up with hepatitis at the very least. And the parents with a lawsuit because if that brat bites ,someone else is going to sue. Them, the shop etc. I would
Story 3: After the boss goes bankrupt and sells the business, OP should get the former crew together to buy it. It sounds like the place was doing decent business even run poorly. Run well it could be a good opportunity.
Story 2: If my neighbor pulled that "it's a Federal offense to tamper with mail", I would have pointed to the package and said, "that isn't _mail,_ it's a parcel delivered by a courier. 'Mail' is only legally mail if the Post Office delivers it. So take your Federal BS and stick it."
Mail is what the USPS handles, is paid postage, and delivers, usually to a regulation mailbox. Amazon, UPS, FedEx, DHL, etc., _are not agents of the Post Office,_ they are private courier companies. The items they deliver are only protected by normal laws regarding private property. It's illegal to steal packages, but it's only a local police matter, not Federal. Try taking a UPS package theft to the Postmaster, and he'll laugh at you, and tell you to go to the police station.
Her behavior is harassment, especially the going to your boss crap. Sue her ass.
On the last story actually Hep C is far more common than HIV/AIDS and far more infectious as the virus has a much longer life span outside the body than HIV,I learned this from various safety meetings when I was working.
Amazon told me if a package is sent to you accidentally you can keep it. We'll just resend to the purchaser.
If that was me and the manager wasn't controlling his wife and kid. I'd be on corporate store step. Did he wouldn't be having a job there. And if that kid would bit me I would have called the cops. Let her husband lose his job then you know what she won't be in the store anymore.
Yes, he really should not let his son attack customers
The last story,mayhaps,the mother was training her son,as a 🧛♂️ Vampire,and he took it seriously! There are wierder people out there,but definitely Opie,did the right thing,and I hope,that there was a lesson learned! Thank you! 😇
Story 3: "I need you! Come back to work!"
"Yes. YOU need ME. Not the other way around. Now you can either get the hell off my property or we can discuss how things are going to DRASTICALLY change, because it's become VERY apparent how VALUABLE I am as an employee to you. Do you understand?"
Story 2: OP needs to get a No Contact restraining order on her siting the 2 attempts to get OP fired...if she calls his work again she can be arrested & charged.
Story 3: Call 911 and make sure it's on the recording that you have told him to leave the property...have him arrested for trespassing, harassment & stalking.
Story 4: OP's brother did the best thing possible considering the situation. Karen will be keeping a better reign on the brat from now on. Excellent correction of a Karen/brat combo!
Story 4, sounds like the kid has rabies or something that he needs to constantly bite strangers or something. LOL
Last story: "Lady, do you know what they do with dogs that keep biting people? I like dogs better than i like your kid."
It's so weird to me that kids would run around biting people like that's normal behavior and then having a parent that just lets them do it on top of that. I would be calling CPS cause clearly the kid has mental health issues that the mother is not treating.
Only mail (or packages) that are in a mailbox delivered by the post office and removed from said mailbox can a person be sent to jail as US mail stolen is a federal offence. Since the package was sent UPS it is not a federal offence, hence no jail time.
Which is why porch pirates is still a problem to this day.
Last Story
In every other story, reddit tells pople not to fake allergies or illnesses, but this time literally everyone: "Brother did the right thing!" And I can't agree more.....
Last story: More likely to be a problem for a kid that goes around biting adults is Hepatitis. There's 3 types & 1 of those is HIGHLY transmissable just from a small amount of exposure to infected blood, yet you won't know for years you got it because it takes that long to build up enough of a count to get a + on the test. Someone I know is a doctor & they got exposed from a patient that came in the hospital bleeding. Despite standard prevention (gloves, etc) they still got enough blood splattered on them around the face when the patient thrashed around (if it gets in your eyes or mouth even a little then you're exposed) so it had to be documented, & then sure enough years later a regular checkup showed it in the doctor's blood. If you don't know you were exposed & to keep testing for that specifically, then it can be too late when you find out & you'll already have liver damage.
Story 3: OP and all his former Co-Worker should report him to the labor board as the ex boss is making them work more then 40 hours plus he's not even paying them overtime which is a labor law violation. Meaning if they took him to court he is force to pay $1000 for everyone of his former employee that he never paid overtime for.
Story 4: Karen would be grinning when someone with a bad temper gets bitten by her kid, grab the kid, walk toward the Karen, and start yelling in her face to control the kid or next time he comes in to shop he'll put a muzzle on the kid if he see him running around trying to bite people like an uncontrollable dog. She also won't be grinning when her kid bite someone then the bite victim decide to sue her for her kid biting him. If Karen try to lie in court about her kid only bite in self defense the victim can easily tell the court that her kid has a history of biting people unprovoked and the reason why the store never did anything about is because her husband is the manager of the store. End result Karen lost the lawsuit, her husband gets demoted, she gets banned due to her kid's behavior, and CPS comes to take her child to her grandparents due to her not being a good mother for not teaching the kid that biting people for fun is illegal.
Last story: I hope and pray, she and her child learned their lesson! There is so much more things out there that could make her child sick or die! Hep C, and any other illnesses that are transmitted through body fluid! And I wonder if she ever thought that her son could give something to him, when bites others?
Third story: Speaking of self destructing. From entitled, power-tripping to delusional. What kind of dr*gs he consumed to demand people who quit to go to work. Also, there's no such thing as work abandonment, that's called quitting and not allowing that is called slavery and that's illegal.
Last story: I know where OP's brother read the post about the biting child. It was mid-2000s 4chan.
The last story with the crotch goblin biter. It would be so awkward for mommy dearest if someone from the police of child services got bit. Probably be quite awkward for the business also having the manager involved in a feral child story
Story 3: story time... I worked for a franchise known for their footlongs, milkshakes, and happy hour commercials. Worked there for 3 years, 2 of which I was the opening manager. This place was beyond toxic and short staffed for similar reasons only it was the GM that worked almost daily riding our buttholes and causing all the grief.
Right at the start of covid with regulations were made with essential workplaces to provide paid sick leave etc, we were told, and I quote, "Anyone using covid as an excuse to not come in would just be fired..." and me having 3 kids and two disabled adults I was caring for was like okay so this will be like last year when I got sick with walking pneumonia/laryngitis for 2 and a half months and still had to come in 6 days a week. Awesome.
So when I first got sick with covid, my symptoms weren't typical, about 2 weeks of a low grade fever and feeling unwell before my fever finally spiked high enough to meet the criteria for the test, continued to go into work since I couldn't "prove" I had covid. The day it finally spiked it was clear I was unwell. GM comes in all hey whats up why you look like that, so I try to explain, she proceeds to yell, cuss me out, mock me for being effing sick, gaslight me like she never said we'd be fired for calling in sick, send me home but not before telling me to fill up the ice machine (love how she thought yo this is bad but oh well touch peoples ice still anyhow), then had the utter audacity, to text me that same night to see if I'd be coming in the next day. Told her no, I was going to wait til Monday at least for a note from my doc.. got the note, sent it to her showing I was on quarentine for 2 weeks, and her ass tried to go off about how "someone saw me at Walmart the day I was sent home." Yeah, because I already knew I was about to go on quarentine so I had to stock up on supplies and food and medicine for everyone, which I was waiting on the perscriptions and trying to keep as far away from people as I could when (enter name here) saw me. Not that what I do off the clock is any of your effing business to begin with.
That night was when my fever spiked high enough to get tested. Got tested that Monday, sent her a pic of the note, then called the owner a week in and told him I would off myself before I'd ever work under that woman again. His solution? To try and convince me to work for the other store instead because the GM there doesn't yell or cuss. Um. How about you let go of the reason your turnover rate at this store is so high you dumbsh*t.
Ending of the story? I never went back and never will, and I learned a very, valuable lesson in all of it. No matter how many times a company touts how replaceable you are, remember that at home and with those that love you and depend on you you are absolutely irreplaceable and won't do any good to them if you're dead.
The one about the kid biting people... Do you have any idea how many bacteria are in the mouth? I would have told her that I was going to the emergency room to get a tetanus (and rabies,, see how she likes that one) shot and she was going to pay for all of it. And then sue her when she refused, for the emergency room visit, mental stress, post traumatic syndrome, anything a lawyer could stick in there. Hit the pocketbook, and you will always get their attention.
When people know the kid likes to bite them, use some really powerful hot sauce and see what happens ….oh and any mother that lets her kids do that sort of thing ,should be reported to CPS
In that situation, I'd use anything made with the hottest peppers such as Carolina Reapers and Trinidad Scorpions.
@@DarDarBinks1986 easy. Now. Teaching a mentally challenged child about proper behaviour shouldn’t harm them …they will call. CPS. ON. YOU. !!!
@@patsquach4080 Oh, but I WOULD use such hot sauces to teach a biting child a lesson on proper behavior. Pain smarts and makes people smarter.
@@DarDarBinks1986 do onto others as you would have them do unto you…. Have a fun day. !!!
Story 1: Wonderful to know that there are bosses who will stick up for their staff like this guy. I’m sick of stories where bosses throw staff under the bus just to save a patronage that’s not even worth it.
Last Story: This woman has the utter GALL to try and blame OP and make disparaging remarks on HIV/AIDS when it was her own fault for allowing her brat to attack random people, not knowing whether or not they’re sick or vulnerable. And what if her son was the one that was sick? Then she herself would be responsible for a potential outbreak and/or the avoidable deaths of others just because she didn’t want to be an adult and discipline her little monster
Story 4: I had a nephew that tried that with me during Christmas. He had been biting a lot of people. I bit him back hard. He never bit anyone again.
Last story, I'd be inclined to say I was in the middle of rabies prevention shots. The kid would then need to get the whole round of shots, too so it would teach the kid as well as the mom.
Antivaxxers punching air rn
Last Story: Bite me, kid & I'll turn you into a toad to use in my revenge spells.
😵💫💩😵💫
*What a 💩 neighbor!*
*I would have taken the packages back to UPS and told them what was going on.. and have THEM take it to her!*
The third story reminds me of how my brother was working at Papa John's before the lawsuit, and his job was near slavery it was an absolute nightmare.
Thanks to that driver who started the lawsuit, my brother quit and signed the petition, and a month later, he got a $600 check in the mail
The last story, what kind of terrible parent lets their goblin of a child go around and bite people and gets mad at the defenders?
Final Story - Imagine if that kid bitten someone who had a prosthetic arm or leg and he wound up breaking a tooth? 😂😂
"If I werer your boss, I'd fire you.:"
"If you were my boss, you'd be up for charges of breaking labor laws and creating a hostile work environment, and you would owe me SOO MUCH MONEY!"
Story 3, I would absolutely LOVE to see that boss try and make those deliveries himself, and realise he is also "lazy" because he can't make 10000 deliveries per minute, let alone live off the minimum wage it pays. I hate those types so much
Last story - If I were OP's brother, I would have calmly pulled out my phone, took a picture of the wound and the grinning asshole, then called 911. Since the woman was married to the store's manager, I'd also sue the store for mental damages, because who expects to have to defend themselves from such violence while trying to shop?
Story 4: There are some places you should just never go without being ready to record. Evidence of the manager's son attacking customers would royally screw up all of their lives.
Story 4: the manager really should not be manager if he lets his son bite and hit customers.
Story 3: what crazy boss. He’s clearly unaware of any of his own actions, lacking any self awareness or empathy to others. And it’s super ironic how he thinks it’s his former employees’ fault for his awful business, when he’s the one abusing them. And the worst part, he says he has children? He’s likely lying about that to spread guilt, but if he’s telling the truth, he definitely shouldn’t have them.
