![[SUB] 베몬이 교관님 멘탈을 탕탕 후루후루~٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶ FOREVER 웃게 되는 갓기들의 수련회 | 돌들의침묵 | BABYMONSTER(베이비몬스터) 'FOREVER'](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/FISAO7BwIxE/mqdefault.jpg)
For the 5th story, if I were OP, I would've pressed charges on Karen's husband and filed a formal complaint against the arresting officers for false detainment and discrimination. I mean just because someone has tattoos and bullet wounds doesn't mean they are a gang member. Then the manger states that OP is no longer welcome in the store, despite him doing nothing wrong. would've asked if Karen and her hubby were also banned. I am willing to bet they aren't. If I were OP I would go full Karen. I would contact corporate, leave multiple scathing reviews detailing what happened, and I might even contact new stations to see if any were interested.
I agree the officers were corrupt
Yes
@allenbanks9034That's not a guarantee, especially with the security footage.
@allenbanks9034 uh huh, so your first time hearing these stories? Cause, spoiler, it’s a unicorn when these Karen’s aren’t easily caught and the OP isn’t believed in the end
@@DeliciousBoithe store will delete it before corporate can look.
*Story 5:* I wouldve gone full scorched earth. Pressed charges against the Karen's husband for assault. Filed a complaint against the police department for being cuffed without a prior investigation. Called corperate for the store and told them that their manager welcomes violent customers with open arms, but bans people who defend themselves against them.
Everyone except OP in this story was absolutely irrational and insane.
You forget the nice sergeant. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@gorilladisco9108 I agree. The supervisor sounded peeved with the incompetent officers who, instead of checking surveillance footage or asking OP what happened, decided to just trust a howling Karen & cuff OP. I bet the supervisor wrote them up for that.
@@starrywizdom Not to mention violating the presumption of innocence…or is that only for the judiciary?
I would also file for discrimination cause of the tattoos lol
The visceral hatred that some people seem to have for homeless people never fails to baffle me.
The same for how disabled people are treated by these absolute wastes of oxygen.
@@LunaP1a priest once told my mom to “leave the r****d at home”, indicating to my baby brother, then couldn’t understand why she stopped attending Mass. Gee, maybe because she’s not a shitty mom who’d leave a severely disabled 5yo home alone for 90 minutes, Father… (I swear, there are so many Karen’s in the ranks of the Catholic clergy.)
I think it depends on where you live, ive lived in many areas with nice homeless people who i would donate to and bring food, then i tried living in portland…it brings perspective to intentional homelessness vs not intentional
Convenient Victims. Those who feel small want to feel big.
Because many of them are criminals, and junkies, who will gladly harrass you, and rob you for their next hit. And our city government are openly encouraging their behavior.
I got mistaken for a homeless person once at a grocery store. But instead of being berated, the cashier just smiled at me and silently put some of my groceries on the other side of the scanner. It was both sweet and a reminder to clean up a little more when leaving the house.
Story 5: Why exactly wasn't OP welcome in the store anay more? Victim blaming at its finest..
Pretty much no one in story five did anything they should have. Then the store, after verifying that OP did nothing wrong, has the gall to say he is not welcome back? Im sorry? Are they seriously banning the VICTIM of that situation from the store?
A suit for discrimination can probably be put into motion against those cops and that store.
Definitely press criminal charges against the husband then file civil suits against the store and the cops. Maybe file a civil suit against the husband, too, for good measure.
You forget the nice sergeant. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I feel like it wouldn't stick to the cops, and if OP isn't wealthy it probably isn't worth it. But definitely press charges on the Karens and sue the store.
@@Flammifleurecameras say otherwise in court
Story 5: I would have called corporate and complained that the store manager banned me from the store for no reason after I had been harassed by a Karen and then assaulted by her husband who were lucky that I did not press charges as I only wanted to go home.
Just what I came to post. 👍
Story 5: OP should definitely have gathered names and badge numbers of the dirty cops and filed suits and formal complaints. Also a bit of trial by media to turn up the heat.
OP in the Best Buy story should have pressed charges and filed a complaint with the PD. Also, banned from that BB for defending himself? There's a complaint to corporate.
Story 5: Can someone say lawsuit? Not only on the cops for assuming he was a gang member for his multiple tattoos but for the fact that they never got his side of the story. I would have also sued the store for letting that happen and just automatically assuming he was in the wrong. What the fuck...I don't blame him for just wanting to get the hell out of there.
ESH except OP and I hope his friend forgave him after she heard the story.
Right here I would be suing and not letting them cuff me
@@og_3rd_st_saint_gat That would be resisting arrest and then they'd actually have something to get you on. The only thing the cops in the story did wrong was not get both sides of the story until a supervisor did. Considering the circumstances, OP must have looked like a psycho who went nuts on a random dude.
He made 2 Mistakes, Always file charges against a Karen, & since that Husband attacked You, from the Cowardly Rear, sue them, then File charges against the Store Manager, for Incompetence, Failure to protect Customers, and Slanderous assumptions as He/she Had NO Business banning you from the store!!
@@1stNinjaMtrue but the cops would say the police is wrong either way also youtube hid your comment
@@og_3rd_st_saint_gat How would you “not let them cuff” you? You’d probably end up escalating the situation if anything.
I remember in HS (late 70’s), I would help my father out on jobs as he was a flooring contractor. During the summer this would entail painting basketball courts and refinishing gymnasiums. I had a pair of carpenter pants, mottled with paint and polyurethane stains, that I liked to wear when I worked. I wore them one day to school and one of my teachers had the gall to tell me young ladies shouldn’t dress so shabbily. I told her it was a good thing then that I’m not a young “lady” and would never want to be. This was an ongoing peeve of my mother’s that I didn’t measure up to the neighbors’ daughters, who were in my mother’s eyes, young ladies.
Story 4: Have you ever gotten mad at a random, innocent person for just existing? The homeless man was just minding his own business, which is what Karen should have done in the first place. Hope jail time gives her the dose of "Mind your own pecking business" she needs
Hopefully so, but highly unlikely.
There's a strong correlation between rabid Karens and HOA officers - an insistence on controlling everyone around them. Too often, they are the same person.
Same thing with the Karen in the third story.
It won't a Karen like that needs not only to be in jail but have a few beat downs while in there
She'll go to jail, have to pay a lot of fines, get out, find out she lost her home in the process and now she's one of the people on the streets that she was wanting the cops to arrest.
She paid for a service under th assumption the dude worked there even though they repeatedly told her they dont. taking her money and leaving isn't technically stealing as she willfully gave it to them
Exactly, and who will she complain to, the police, as I said in my post about it, she would have been the one at fault for insisting OP took the money.
It would be considered stealing under the law. Even if she assumed incorrectly, the money would have been exchanged with the expectation of services rendered.
My dad worked for a national tech company. Every time he bought a car, he w went unshaven in tatty, paint covered khakis, and a worn out shirt. Usually he was buying a rolling living room, a Mark or Fleetwood. He was weeding out the Karen salesmen.
My dad works in a factory as a skilled machinist and makes good money. This happened in the early 2000s when he bought a brand new Ford Fusion (i think it was in 2003 or 2004?) He went into the dealership right after work just to look at cars to see if they had what he wanted in yet, but he had no plans to drive it, just see if the model he had seen online was available and if they had the color he wanted, and then go home amd change to come back and test them if they had some. His clothes were stained up and had some fraying and oil/grease on them. He said every single salesperson ignored him or even turned up their nose at him except the one female employee who recognized the opportunity to make a sale to a hard working man. She found out what he wanted, started the paperwork on it, and even insisted he test drive one of the other cars in that model to make sure he liked the feel of it. He tried to turn her down since his clothes were dirty and she told him basically "nonsense that's what our full time detailing is for. Go test drive that model and if you like it, I'll get the paperwork set up for you. We'll send that car to the detail shop and keep a nice fresh model never driven for you to pick up after you go home and change." My dad then had a chat with the sales manager and told him that the female sales rep is the only reason they didn't lose his sale that day because he was upset at how he was treated but she made up for it and deserves a raise.
Story 4: that Karen is really stupid thinking that assaulting police with multiple witnesses would be a good idea but when are Karen's smart enough to not poke the bear and expected nothing bad to happen.
It's the standard formula, Entitlement + Stupidity = Karen
We already knew she was stupid by mistaking OPs car for a REAL cop car. The car doesnt have any decals for one, nor the light bar on the roof.
Also, there didnt need to be any witnesses, the cops still would have had their vestcams going since they dont turn them off until the situation is delt with, the moment she wanted the supervisor they would have left them going.
Karen’s aren’t know for being bright. My neighbors a deranged Karen. She gave me permission to put some plants on land that’s technically hers but she has no access to (she built her fence super odd). Then she threatened to burn down my house for planting stuff there. Cops told her tough shit, she’d given me permission so she couldn’t do anything until the plants died a natural death. Fast forward to the next spring and she’s asking me when I’m clearing the weeds there to plant this years veggies…. Bitch, I’m not touching that land with a 100 ft pole! She was so pissed I wouldn’t put a garden there for free and tend it for free for her.😂
Yet another example of the cheap bleach soaking through her scalp and killing what few active brain cells were left.
Love how the cops were just assuming she was a hooker for no other reason than because she got in a car with guys in a sketchy area. No evidence just assumed.
Violating due process.
First story the Opie is the problem here. Wake up, say "hey man, I'm with So and So Company", and keep it pushing. Wandering around like a stoned tourist in a construction site isn't going to go well for you in any situation.
Exactly this was all on OP for not communicating and showing up on the job not 100% there.
Yeah, that whole story was just irritating to hear.
That's what's irritating about story 5. I would have asked for badge numbers, names and really taken care of the situation. What are atatoos suddenly against the law and now anyone who's grocery shopping can scream oh that person over there in the tats needs to be arrested.
Ugh! I have tattoos. Almost a full sleeve on my right arm. If cops treated me like that just because I have tattoos there will be words. And possibly charges.
First story... Yell at me and try to take my phone.... get backhanded. 😡
Second story.... Yep, take the money, give one messy swipe on her windshield, then drive away. 😂
Story 2: or better yet. Take the money, yell "thanks for the first round of shots", give her the New Jersey salute, then drive off.
Story 1 - Oh, they wouldnt get a backhand from me, try and grab my phone and I am going to grab your hand and twist while pulling. If someone is going for your phone it immediately puts them on their front foot, therefore when you grab the offending hand and pull you will put them off balance, specially if they arent ready for it. Of course it's then your option to aim that knee at their face, or just let them kiss the ground instead.
@@Ryanthusar oh, that first story. I have cptsd from my step-dad going full movie style Marine drill Sargent on me. I would have blacked out and wouldn't have stopped beating on him until I ran out of energy, got pulled off of him or gotten dropped.
That last one had me giggling. I'm thinking OMG, the bodycam is going to get these newbies a LOT of teasing at the station. LOL
Story 5: those cops… NEVER judge a book by its cover, numb nuts…
Good thing the orignal poster can sue
@@og_3rd_st_saint_gat He said he won’t
@@kranberry3318 ok that's just soft of him he should sue
@@og_3rd_st_saint_gat Yeah it always pisses me off when they choose not to sue or press charges or whatever the situation calls for
@@kranberry3318 same here friend
I just thought of the perfect move when someone sais "I pay your salary"... Sue them for non payment😁. If they argue "they pay your salary" and there's no proof they payed it then either they don't pay your salary which will end the argument, or they pay it but they're withholding it which is illegal😁. So record someone saying "I pay your salary" and take them to court. Let's see what they'll pay!😂😂😂
There's a great story in a STAR TREK history about one of the first big STAR TREK conventions. The local ladies of the evening had a deal with the hotel that they'd be ignored if the conventions would get a cut of of their profits. They approached one of the convention runners to offer their deal. The guy pointed to a bunch of young kids running through the lobby and said, "That's who's attending this convention." The ladies left in embarrassment.
A few years ago, due to life changes, I was completely starting over. Although, we have pretty decent public transportation, it was still difficult to go to interviews. I hadn’t had access to a car for several years, so my sister thought it would be easier to get a job with better transportation. There was car for sale down the block and she said it’s only $2000! It did have low miles on it, and was in good condition. Plus it was free to me, so I was very grateful for the gift, being so happy to have such a generous sister. It turned out to be a Ford Crown Victoria, but it actually was a boat in disguise. Although, in the 90’s I work at a Ford Truck dealership. I had driven a Ford Bronco, but that was 30 years ago. The other point is it was formerly a Metro cop car. Luckily, their cars were all white. All the equipment had been stripped out, and any identifying marks on it were removed, except the spotlight. Never used this. The people that got caught doing this faced several consequences. I’m not interested in dealing with those. What was funny is when people saw the car, they would slow down, and then see a 66 year old woman, who can barely see over the steering wheel (I had to sit on a thick pillow), driving down the street. I got used to driving a the boat, but my daughter now has it, and it’s grown on her.
Story 4... I would have asked to tack on a charge of criminal harassment. I would happily go to court to give my side, and have her tell why she jumped from harassing someone to them impersonating a cop... and calling that in. Doing so, was something which clearly placed him at risk of being shot. Karens need to learn lies have consequences.
That's assuming any lessons that try to get taught to them perviates their impervious narcissism.
Having retired after being a master electrician for 45 years, I've seen a lot crazier stuff on job sites than that first story.
I've had just about everyone from secretaries to janitors to other contractor employees try to order me around, lie about being related to my boss and threatening to get me fired for not following their "orders".
BTW, I was the boss after I took over from my previous boss who happened to be my dad.
i usually just nodded and told them to go ahead and try then went on with my work
Liked the bridge story. reminded of installing over seven miles of cable on a large bridge. Cable was for wind and temperature sensors. We were a union company but the bridge electricians union insisted they hook up the cable. This cable has a steel covering and an aluminum covering and plastic and takes experience to open. The bridge electricians hacked it all up just trying to open it. The bridge company ended up paying us thousands to repair it. Our company would have done the wire work for free. They ended up paying for all of the repair work.
Story 2: He should have just pulled his keys out and beeped the car when she said "You can't afford that!"
Story 4: *ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!!!!* I've seen cars like that and never thought "HEY A COP." But maybe my brain cell is more worried about working right and wanting to be more intelligent than just being a marble rolling around my head.
Nah, it's just that, unlike most Karens, your brain cell isn't alone in there 😉
@@suziwolf4830 😂😂🙃😂😂 yeah tho at times. I feel that sometimes they take a break when I feel like I don't pick up on things let alone remember some stuff.
We used to tell our (lovable but dumb) dog, "Both neurons, Bo. Both neurons."
Maybe the response to people like these should be, "Both neurons, Karen. Both neurons."
Story 2: I would have taken the money...spit on her windshield...got in my car and left...while flipping her off.
Story 5: OP needed to press charges on the Karen husband...never let them get away with assault...they will keep doing it until they are held accountable for their actions.
I would pull the police report to get the manager's information so I could positively identify him to corporate...whom I would be calling...to complain about the treatment of a customer.
How he banned the VICTIM of an assault committed by one of his other customers...which could be verified by both the police and the CCTV recording of the event. Bye Felicia!
Always press charges and if the employees are part of the problem call corporate as well. That manager doesn't deserve to hold that position especially since he was willing to ban a victim of a karen that means he only sides with money so his customers who aren't rich and staff always get screwed over by him in order to keep the money happy.
Story 2: Oof, that comment calling OP a homeless who shakes people down is pretty bad. Some people just love to kick people down
Wow that guys an idiot as the whole point of the story was op ISNT homeless & the post literally ends w/ op going home
To OP in the second story, yeah I would have just taken the money and left while she went inside LOL
Story 5: If you just wave your hand not in someone's face but to where they are able to see it near your own body, assuming they can see the movement is the best way I have found to get someone's attention. I'm losing my vision and can see movement but hate being touched, so I know this works for someone like me. Also if someone is deaf this can sometimes help them to know you are trying to get their attention. Not always though everyone is different
Gotta call bull shit ,you would be used to the injury you get trying pull this crap and maybe learn not to
Story 4 - I hate it when people use ‘My tax dollars pay your salary, therefore you have to do as I say’ bit.
Thankfully that stupid Karen got charged and fined. And hopefully OP gets their car painted or at least a new car.
Was given the I pay your salary when in the air force by a guy I was having a problem with was during anti war riot I was in uniform, law enforcement told I had to listen to him because he paid etc he was about to enter a free fire zone where he would have been shot he didn't believe it I showed him the signs he said incouldnt shoot him I didn't but in the ensuing arrest he lost some teeth and a broken arm tried to sue me in civilian court iwanted to let it drop he didn't want to he got jail time and had to watch a video of another person disobeying this order the person was shot in the head rather gross person started pucking then had to clean up the person was a captain who got busted to Lt ,karma
@@larryspoonamore7812 Nice
2nd and 4th story: It really seems homeless people are more humble and honest than a karen...
I adore the tactic used in the last story. Making people elaborate on and justify their assumptions is comedy gold, and a really solid lesson without violence often times.
Meter story: Yeeaah, this is mostly OP's fault for not paying attention and speaking up.
Homeless story: TBH I've seen a number of people on corners with signs asking for money that appeared better dressed and kempt than I have at times. I've also seen a couple leave their corners, walk to a parking lot and get in much nicer looking cars than what I own.
Not a cop story: I used to work as a taxi driver that used old police cars for taxis. But they were repainted before the drivers got hold of them.
Tattooed man story: Yeah, my son-in-law is the same, you DON'T sneak around him and you especially don't grab him from the back. He's a former Army Ranger who has seen action in the Middle East, as well as a trained martial artist. Karen's husband was lucky OP was able to stop after one strike. Not everyone can.
Last story: At least they didn't take the four of them to the station to ask questions.
*Last Story:* That's the first time I've ever heard that kind of story in an IDWHL form.
That was definitely a new one!
Well it fit. The girl didn't "work" here.
Third story: a karen made a fool of herself. Absolutely wonderful way to target, bait, spread the net and catch a pretentious horrible karen. Shame on her. Fourth story: wild and entitled karens are so dumb. Fifth story: ALWAYS press charges against a lying karen ALWAYS.
Story 1: even if he was a worker, you don't go snatching people's phones. I would have told the higher ups he was making me uncomfortable
How can anyone see homelessness and feel anything but compassion welling up? Have we no hearts? That could be you, that could be anyone. How can we claim to be good people if we have no heart for people?
Try living in portland, theres a difference between intentionally homeless and struggling homeless, many of the homeless who live here have many options and places to go but they would rather take drugs and be free, which is fine, until they start hurting innocent people and businesses, its hard to feel pity for someone who’s been given a rope but they still dont climb it, ive met many struggling homeless who ive helped with food and supplies and , but its hard to feel pity for the ones who choose to live that way, and you cant tell them apart
@@malachieclipse9507 that makes me wary of Portland, not the homeless.
Op Missed a great opportunity to do malicious compliance
Story 3: Absolutely delicious way to shut up a Karen. Thank you for sharing, OP.
Story 6: "if you're underage, you can't..."
You can't do that over the age of 18, either....
Story 5 - i would definitely never go back to a store if I had that they banned people for being assaulted but welcomed their attackers. Definitely worth filing a complaint and ensure that manager gets banned from being a manager ever again too.
Lol some drugged up homeless lady got super pissed at an ex of mine who drove an all black retired cop car like that. It startled her thinking there was a REAL cop was there at the park, and when she realized she was mistaken she was mad instead of relieved.
Somebody got a bargain at the Mount Prospect City Police Auction... Hear they're practically giving them away...
Story one is Hilarious. My ex hubby bought a retired cop bike..minus all the goodies... but you wouldn't believe how many people actually got out of our way when we went for rides on it. The icing on the cake was when they discover we ARENT cops... but bikers. I get to watch the "OMG am I Speeding?" to "WTF are those bikers doing on a Harley Cop Bike"... funny thing, no one uses Harleys as cop bikes anymore
Isn't that story four?
As a homeless person I'm lucky enough to live in my minivan, but some of the looks I get from people who see me climb in and out of the back of my van when get in and out of bed pisses me off to no end.
Dang, what's with the hate for unhoused people? Those Karens should be compelled to volunteer at a soup kitchen and find out that these folks are people too.
It depends on where you live, if you live in a area where the unhoused are simply not fortunate people then yeah let them be, buy a meal for them, i used to live in portland, many of the people are unhoused by choice, claiming its “easier” often times they are mentally unstable and you cant help them, its hard to tell which unhoused will kill you because white bread is racist vs which will accept a sandwich because they’re down on their luck
Story 5... not only would I have wanted to do it for the officers and the person who assaulted me, I would also add in the store and manager for banning me for self defence.
15:27 Damn. You forget how good decommissioned Vic’s look until you see them. Those cars are some beautiful pieces and some good cars.
Many, many moons ago, my Lady Wife was on her way home from work. She got off the bus at her usual stop "downtown" and was waiting for her roommate to pick her up. (She usually walked home from there, but the weather was bad.) So she's standing there waiting when a car pulls up next to her and rolls down the window. The occupant of the car then propositions my wife. Just as my wife is telling the guy off, a young lady comes charging out of the White Castle on the corner, and berates my wife for trying to steal customers from "her" corner! Now, my wife had just come from her retail job, and was dressed nothing like a 'professional." My wife has a powerful contralto voice, a wide vocabulary and a fine command of language. She read both of them the riot act,. then walked a little farther down the block to wait for her roommate. We laugh about it whenever we pass that corner.
Story 1 :
Op should have cleared it and i am glad op knows it
I own a successful business with my wife, but I love wearing "homeless style" clothes, because they're comfy. I never liked those stuffy suits and shirts, to my wife's absolute dismay. She can only manage to make me wear "nice clothes" when we have a party or important meeting.
When I was young, I lived for a few years in a very small town of about 400 people (404 if you counted my family). Anyway, the town didn't look like much and my mom worked as a server in the local restaurant. Breakfast, lunch and dinner there would be a bunch of oldish men there in their work clothes. Farmers all of them. So picture filthy overalls, dirty faces and hands. They looked as if they couldn't even afford a cup of coffee. However, the secret here was that about at least 50% of them were actually millionaires and the other 50% were pretty well off. But they were farmers. They weren't bankers. They wore the clothes their professions required. They drove beat-up pick up trucks, because who wants to put farming equipment in a BMW? Good rule: Don't judge a book by it's cover.
Thank you boys. I appreciate you
Story 2: I would’ve taken the money and drove off. I mean, she was insisting on him taking her money.
Story 4: It's not against the law to be homeless or to be in public curbs, walkways, public parks, etc, as long as you don't block or harass passers-by. It can however, be dangerous to harass people who aren't actually bothering you. There is no way to know how they will react, so it just isn't safe to do so. There is also the chance that the victim may file charges of harassment and discrimination against their tormenter.
OP could paint "I'm not a Police Car" on the white part.
That's cheaper then repaint the whole car
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Story 4 man that car looks like it came straight out of an 80's buddy cop movie.
There's a guy in my hometown who has a retired highway patrol car and he put a sign on it that says "not a cop"
As a side note: anti panhandling laws are largely unconstitutional here in the US. It's covered under the first Amendment as free speech. It's a charitable request for assistance. It's not that different than the concepts behind yelling fire in a crowded theater. You are absolutely allowed to yell fire in a crowded theater and that's protected by the first Amendment... If there's an actual fire in the theater that you're warning people about. It's not the words or the location that is illegal, It's when you say something untruthful in such a way as to cause damage to people or property from the fallout of the utterance of those words. So with that said merely asking people for money should not be illegal in the US only asking for money in such a way that causes damage to people or property or creates a dangerous situation thereof like stepping into a busy lane of traffic. And even then all of those things that a person can do that create a dangerous situation while they are panhandling are already illegal individually anyhow... Making anti-panhandling laws superfluous at best even if they could pass constitutional muster which they don't when they are actually tested in court. Part of the problem is that the very people most affected by the unconstitutional panhandling laws are also the least likely to be able to fight it in court to prove that it's unconstitutional.
tl; dr. There are people who make a living off panhandling while there are often resources available for those who are struggling to make ends meet if not actually homeless.
@@Renville80: Correct. There are panhandlers who can make more in a week than I can in a month.
And in the capitol city of where I live, there are public nuisance laws that businesses can post on their windows that threaten arrest for those who are harassing customers for money.
"You should never touch a stranger, because you never know how they'll react"
that is so true, my partner was physically abused as a child, and hates being touched when they are caught off guard. They don't mind touching someone, if they are the one to initiate that touch. But my partner will either freeze up or instinctively throw a punch, as that was how they responded to the abuse.
Thank you so much for reading these. I like to listen to them while I work when I don't have the time/ability to read them. So I love being able to listen.
Cops did a walk of shame in that last story
Last story: cop couldn't say what he thought because:
(A) embarrassment
(B) potential lawsuit
(C) both
I'm leaning towards C 😂
When I heard the phrase "dark humor" with #3, I knew it would be delicious … and I wasn't disappointed.
My favorite thing about the, "my taxes pay your salary," thing is that cops pay taxes too. So the cop is just as much their own boss as any Karen.🤣
Karens are exhausing.
Ow! I shook my head too hard! Now what do I do?!
S4: The cops should have immediately arrested that karen for making a false report and that’s how the story should have ended.
That last story; the cops made an honest mistake, given the area and their lack of experience.
Maybe the cops should be better and not make assumptions about people.
As someone who's been street homeless in the past and has had shaky living situations more recently, yeah, people DO just judge you like that. I don't think people realise how big their own bias is against the homeless and less fortunate. It can happen to anyone, even you.
OP1: Dude, grow a pair and speak up and say "I work for a different company." The entire conflict with the foreman could have been avoided if you were at least just a little bit engaged with your job that day. Lesson learned I hope.
OP5: This story was so frustrating to listen too, those cops and Mrs and Mr Karen were terrible!
The police haven't used Crown Victorias in forever! If that Karen had any sense, she would have noticed that!
Heck no... Would that first story about the electrician on the construction site The Foreman specifically told him to get off the job site and that he's fired etc etc. And he has a witness who heard everything on the phone. Even after the foreman realized his mistake he just said Oh F me and walked away... Meaning that this electrician is still trespassed from the property and fired from the job. I absolutely would pack up all my stuff and leave and set the schedule behind because of this dingbat having made that mistake.
There's 2 old IDWHL stories where that DID happen 1 was about ops friend who was a super specialized worker who restored old buildings & got "fired" by a power tripping manager resulting in the manager costing his company HUGE amounts of money as the specialized contractor had a busy schedule & could no longer do the work resulting in the manager not doing the work correctly which got his company slapped w/ HUGE fines the other op was a retired it consultant who was contacted by his old company to repair a clients outdated system as op had made the system the CEO of the company repeatedly demanded op make him a coffee & "fired" op when he wouldn't resulting in him having to pay op a pretty penny to get him to come back & when op came back the CEO tried to order the person op was working with to get op a coffee😂😂😂
lol if i was driving the 2007 Barricade police mustang from the movie transformers and karen assumes that im a cop i would be rolling in laughter 🤣
As someone with PTSD, it took a long time before I got used to being touched from behind.
Story 5 is begging for a profiling lawsuit against the cop and the store.
Between the fake security cameras, and lack of maintenance on the real ones, there have to be many times that assault charges brought by a Karen could not be refuted, and some poor SOB is actually arrested and sent to prison.
I also own a retired police crown Vic, and have never been confused for a police officer. I think I’m lucky for that, but thankfully the car is an unmarked model.
I would have made a big deal about being banned from the Best Buy. I mean is this how they treat people who were attacked?
Window washer story reminds me of the scene in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy where the home demolisher charges Arthur 5 pounds to wipe the windows of the house he is going to dewtroy.😂😂
The closest i got to I don't work here is I don't work here anymore. I guess I'm lucky as it de-escalated quickly after stating that.
My dealer used to drive a non-commissioned cop car. LOL
Story 1: I used to have an Jack wagon acting foreman who would end every shift by bouncing his hardhat 70 down the asphalt parking lot. He power tripped, changed what he ordered, and threw his massive weight around constantly. Ironically, he was demoted to operator before this for not followinf orders when that was his biggest trigger.
He was the worst supervisor I've ever had, and I've had one that delayed me leaving work when my kid had a 101° fever.
My dad was mistaken for being homeless once...by the police. He wasn't one for combing his hair, and didn't get it cut short because he was proud of having a thick head of hair "for his age". He was standing at a bus stop, while holding his new born grandson, and the police tried arresting him for kidnapping. My brother, and his ex, were both at work and my dad was babysitting. Luckily, he wasn't actually arrested, but he did start combing his hair lol.
There are still plenty of them Crown Vics in service down here in the south.
For years my friend's dad had a retired Interceptor, but since it was painted all white people always thought it was an undercover cop instead. It was hilarious when he would pull into a parking lot and teens would scatter. Or if he was on a side road waiting to turn cars going past would dramatically slow down thinking he was trying to catch speeders. They never realized there weren't any lights on top anymore, they just looked at the type of car and assumed.
Thanks for the stories Fluff
One legendary police officer responded to "my taxes pay your salary" with "I could use a raise".
Another classic response I've read is "do you know who I am" *gets on radio* "this is gonna be a psychiatric case subject doesn't know who they are"
Story 6: in all fairness.. the cops are right. It’s an area where men frequently drive around inviting random women into their cars, I wouldn’t feel safe walking there either.
Just because your a coward doesn't mean every body is think about what you say sometime instead of eating your foot
@@larryspoonamore7812 Afraid of being raped is me being a coward? Jesus Christ
Story 5: The manager bans an innocent man for defending himself? Never going to shop there again, regardless of some of the great deals they have.
Story 4: OP needs the Autobot icon on the car, or maybe the Klingon one, or better yet both.
😂😂😂😂
*Story #4 is DEE-LISHUS!*
*Chef's 💋*
Take the cash, get in your own car and leave.... she can't say you stole it, she shoved it in your face
Story 1: each jobsite has "site specific" safety training. Meaning, each site has its own set of safety issues, which might not occur on other sites. I'm in the same position. I do construction scheduling for multiple projects. That's why we get paid the big bucks.
