Not really, according to the comment I'm not even watching the video. As a former construction worker, current manufacturing engineer, workers' safety is my top priority and clearly this channel doesn't align with my values.
What part of this video was awesome ya potato? YAWN
My grandad passed in 1985 sadly and a few years earlier he gave me some advice that's lived with me ever since. He said, "if you drop something let it drop, you can do more harm by trying to stop it!" Wise words from a wise man. I'm sorry John but the health and wellbeing of your employees is paramount over anything else!!
I always say "a dropped knife has no handle" Clearly that slab was heavy, and could have damaged anyone under it or trying to grab it.
Plus now the project will be 2 episodes instead of one! :D
Exception: babies
Your grandpa def lived before cell phones cuz I've fumbled and snatch saved my cell phone prob a dozen times.
Oh and yea one of my kids once too

As someone who has run teams from five or six to over a hundred people in the past, I agree with the comments that you need to apologise to Sam, and not just for the bit about stopping the slab, when your immediate reaction should have been "Are you OK? I'm glad you didn't do anything stupid like trying to catch it". In fact, you should have planned for something like this and told your guys quite clearly "if it starts to go, just get the hell out of the way". You should also avoid throwing tantrums like that in front of your staff. Obviously what happened was heartbreaking, but as the leader you suck it up, make sure everyone else is OK, then throw a fit in private, not in front of your team. I appreciate it might be good content, but it's not good for you as a leader or for your team.
A good manager always puts the welfare and wellbeing of their team first, especially in a potentially dangerous environment like a workshop and, quite honestly, Sam already looks like he's scared witless of you. I'm a big guy too, and we sometimes don't realise how imposing a large, confident man can be to those around them, and while you are probably just joking, it really doesn't look to me like Sam finds it funny. When you make people nervous and jumpy, that's when accidents happen, which is exactly what happened here. You constantly badgering your team to hurry up and mocking them for being slow lead to mistakes being made with the result seen in the video.
You're former NFL, I'm former army, we spent a lot of time in environments where such "banter" is seen as normal and you give as well as you get, but a lot of "normal" people don't see it the same way and you really might want to consider that. It's entirely possible Sam's totally OK with it, but that is not the perception that your videos put across, and as a wise man once said, "it's not what you do that's important, but what you're seen to be doing" and, frankly, you're coming over as a bit of a bully. People don't quit bad jobs, they quit bad managers.
Have to agree!
Sam said "I'm scared".
OH HELL YEAH...........YOU NAILED IT STEAMGEEZER
Good articulate comment!
as someone who has full on walked out on a bad manager - I concur (I'm not yet at that part in the video but seemingly from the comments I can piece together what's 'going' to happen) - being treated every single day I worked at that job like I was the shit on the sole of his shoe wore me down like nothing else. He was a disgusting person (not just as a manager but as a person) and expected everyone else to clean up after him - I was NOT hired as a cleaner, I was hired to digitise all of his accounts (he was an accountant), which I did as a casual worker but when he started taking the p*ss by getting me to clean up his *literal* shit in the toilet, his *literal* condoms he left on the office floor and the fact that he would routinely call me every derogatory name under the sun on a daily (hell, hourly) basis - I told him to stuff his job and find someone else to do it because I was done and walked out. Now I get that's not quite what happened here (at least, from your comment) but I agree that people don't quit shitty jobs, they quit shitty people (who happen to be managers) and I've noticed this trend in JM's persona for the last .. few months videos, it doesn't really come as a surprise to see people - essentially - having had enough of it on another's behalf.
"Dramatic content" shouldn't over ride the need for human decency. Regardless of your individual background where "banter" may or may not be "normal".
edit: I got to the part where it happens and it full on gave me anxiety, I'd have walked out (as Sam) and pondered my career choices. He said "I'm scared", I said "I'm terrified" and I wasn't even there (not to mention, we only saw the EDITED version, which I think scares me more because what else went on that we _didn't_ see?)
So, for those who are watching the video now and don't know why people are saying John should apologize to Sam:
After the slab falls, by the end of the video, John says "didn't you even think of catching it" to Sam. The he throws a fit and doesn't say a word for two hours apparently.
He cut off the part he said that after he got huge backlash in the comments.
Once the video is posted, you can’t really undo that correct? You’d have to post a whole new video and then these comments wouldn’t be here
@@mikej5959 you can edit out parts of the video like he did, but the comments aren't changing.
@@paula5540 because editing it out isnt the problem lol. Toxicity towards your employees and sugesting someone should throw themselves in front of a 300lb piece of wood is the problem. it's not that hard. whats not to get?
Thank you, I was wondering what happened. I'm not subscribing to his channel because I dislike abuse towards employees.
I was watching the video right now and at first quarter of it i was like "why the f is this main dude being so abusive towards his workers? Why is he such a douche?" and it kept getting worse and worse with his comments. Not to mention how bad he planned everything and then condescendingly gave out comments to hurry and stuff. He obviously didnt have a plan so his workers couldnt even hurry to do something that hasnt been planned for. Then i see these comments like yours mentioning there was even more abuse edited out. WOW this main guy is definitely an abuser and you can tell both of his workers dislike him.
As a boss and manager I would not fathom being such an prick to my guys for my failures in planning and knowledge.
100%! No planning, no communication, just "do it, do it faster". If you're not going to plan properly you can't get all salty when the project literally falls apart.
@@Robert-sq7bp Got to push out the new video 🤡
“If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail!”
EDIT: The video has been edited to cutout all the parts where John digs into Sam and edits removed dunking on him. I'm glad the changes were made. I wish it was acknowledged in some way, but I'm glad. Thanks to the team 👍
Sam getting dunked on the whole video sucks. Especially digging into him for not catching a 300lb slab getting married to gravity. Damn.
Supposed to be funny. They have a good laugh about it
Define: Facetious
@@AAK007 There's trying to be funny, and there's being mean spirited. The fact that so many folks are sticking up for Sam is proof.
That's how friends treat each other.
@@KB3AOL When you say it 2 hours later after you've cooled down, it's facetious. When you say it immediately in the heat of the moment it's mean spirited. I don't doubt they're friends and they're probably fine....but I would have liked to have seen resolution in the video showing as much. Sam's face afterward sure looked like he was feeling like John was pissed at him.
As the owner and boss of my company , I've learned a very important lesson watching this video , then reading everyone's comments. I have got to be a lot more careful with my attitude and planning.
I typically do not care about falling objects versus employee health . Let it fall , I have insurance for that . But boy can I get worked up when my team is in a tight spot and we are in the super crunch type situation .
I have got to be far more patient and develop my mentor attitude alot more .
So to everyone who posted concerning that one situation , thank you. I'll take some lessons from it for my behavior , perspectives , and how and when I say things.
It's always easier to see and understand somebody else screw up than yourself!
I agree, it's easy to see the faults in others but it's not easy to see your own. When I was in training to take over an auto parts store when I was 20, I came in with the store manager at 8, first thing he said was that the rug was dirty and the pop cooler was low. The kid who opened at 7 mentioned that he was the one that closed last night alone, on a truck day when we're supposed to have 4, and that he stayed late enough to get the brake rotor pallet put away, and left right after because he had to be back to open... Manager and him had a back and forth where the kid finally said "You always point out the shit we miss, but you never notice that the customers love us and we break our backs because you can't schedule enough staff" kid ended up walking out. I took over the following week and made sure I got him back, made it very clear that if they get busy that they can call someone else to come and help or to call me and I'll come in. That kid took over when I left and last I heard he was taking classes to become a District Manager.
Or, take people on the internet for what they are and don't give a singular shit about their faulty uninformed opinions?
The dynamic they have "on screen" and off could be completely different. What they choose to edit and show us does not show the WHOLE PICTURE. So take everything with a grain of salt and don't give in to the cancel warriors.
@@GOLD_FEVER brother this has nothing to do with cancel culture. The fact that you're even saying this tells me you've never been in a managerial position or worked at a company large enough where HR gets involved in shit. First of all, this was his idea and he has no real pre-planning for the actual project let alone safety. For him to then yell at them during the stressful situations like clamping was asinine. He even messed up when he tried to take over for clamping. Set aside whether he had the right to get pissed, he's risking his own business with the way he operated. Had one of his workers gotten hurt and wanted to sue its an open and shut case with them recording everything. They regularly violate a metric ton of OSHA regulations but for the most part the injury likely to occur is minor so noone really cares. This one was actual a wtf ridiculous moment.
@@godyamit I don't like Rule nazis and hard asses in general. That said, i don't like people who assume either.
I am starting to think that everybody here reacted to a different video. Because i can't find a single part of this video where anybody is getting mad at anybody.
Let alone taking it out on anybody.
Good job Sam for not getting hurt. I worked 10 years building houses with a boss like that. I quit a few times but he was my brother. You're young and seem like a good worker I'm sure you'll find your own place in the world soon enough.
10 years building houses and your hands are still soft
F** it, Im going for broke and taking out a tooth with me. Workmen's comp should be abolished. Turned us all into a bunch of p****s. If it was me that worked multiple days on it, I would have jump in the way, if I got hurt, let the VA pay my ex-special operator azz medical bills.
@@JamesB-j6kso you cry about workman's comp being a thing while getting basically the most important benefits of workman's comp through the VA? tell us your a hypocrite without telling us your a hypocrite.
@@GiassThisAt least their brain isn't as smooth as yours.
unsub for Sam!
Man, this guy just oozes with aggression, finished the video feeling like I came back from a long shift in a sweatshop.
Say hey big dog, I'm a machinist for the second largest countertop shop in the Kansas City Metro area, but even still it's a small business. When shit happens at our snap business, the first thing the Managers check on is the employees, not the slabs or the machines, they make sure their people are okay. That's what keeps employees. Not giving a fuck about your employees mental or physical health while even playfully scolding them about things they can't fix, is a pretty sure way to find another camera man and another shop helper. Nobody wants to get bitched at for being human at work, John.
I agree completely.
Oh give me a break, Sam obviously was fine and I am sure John made sure off camera as well. It is also only human to be frustrated when shit happens.
That thing would have been like a giant flyswatter.
The workman's comp would have cost more than the slab, anyway. It's just wood. Sam is a whole human being.
@@8asw8 Hush.
John fucks up after doing sketchy shit: 🤭🤪
Sam doesn’t catch a falling giant heavy table on his own: 🤬😤
💯 😂
Sam was right to step aside. Trying to catch that falling slab could have seriously hurt him. The man lived after falling from a ladder, whilst saving your wedding photos. Give him props.
Anyhow, I would suggest using a steel frame on the front side of the desk to help hold it in place. You could add a Malecki logo to the steel also. On the back side, I would consider another steel brace that also incorporates a couple of drawers for the desk. Stay safe, fam.
unsub for Sam!
After seeing how snappy and impatient he was with the employees it was satisfying seeing that happen.
I honestly don't think it's even worth salvaging. I don't like the design. It fell apart because it's bad design. He blamed his employees for it breaking rather than for the construction method being [insert preferred 4-letter word]. The cuts made it weak. I doubt the table could have supported much weight once finished. This was inevitable, and the guy suggested as much throughout the video.
Are you blind? Did you not see how incompetent those guys were?
@@Carpenter__ he ws aswell, he seems to act, and not give clear instructions each time.
@@jspsand7085 Yeah, the advised amount of steaming time was ignored, maybe filling the holes with glue all the way would have worked better than just putting it on the outside of the cuts.
@@Carpenter__ I don't see them as incompetent at all. I see poor planning by the guy in charge and him getting angry at his subordinates for not fixing everything while the screwups were underway. If someone gets called across the shop to give a hand to a process that's already underway that's bad planning. Not having the clamps and jigs ready is bad planning. Yelling at someone to throw something on the ground and hurry up shows that he didn't go over everything first.
He's a fully grown toddler with some hand skills trying to yell at a team to hurry up until they magically read his mind and then figure out what is required (because what he wants is almost certainly not how physics actually works)
John DEFINITELY owes Sam a Major public apology for that SHID!!! He already belittle hims in almost every video 😤😤
the slab is overshadowing the earlier clamping dig.
An apology needs to happen. Doesn't need to be public, it happened between them not us.
@Kat-zk6qy John's tantrum happened "with us," so should the apology.
2 little clamps on a metal bar stuck in there sideways that was always going to let go. That's on John 100%. You can also see Sam wasn't really looking at it when it started to fall. He was also holding that track. Good job Sam. Fuck that slab. Don't be a dink John. The kid signed up to work in a woodshop and he's jumping off ladders and dodging huge slabs.
POUR IT! I think Sam IS pretty athletic dodging that 300 pound wooden linebacker!
John wouldve tackled it 🤣
It's not dropping on him though it's falling/rolling towards him I'm pretty sure he could have easily held it up.but when you hear the noise and see it move instinct kicks in.
@@aaroncraven07 more like... he was told to stand underneath it while holding a track saw/ seems like his other option was to throw the track saw which it seems (based on the attitudes here) would have put him in hot water too. poor leadership and planning all around. using squeeze clamps and only two? they had plenty of time to clamp properly while setting this up and should have had a protocol for if it went down such as staying out of the way or having someone holding it at all times when it was vertical
Imagine how he treats his guys with the cameras off lol
Apologise to Sam, as you said "shit happens". And he's a tiny dude, might have been seriously injured if he would have attempted to get in the way of that huge piece of wood. GOOD thing he didn't try something stupid and get underneath that slab.
I am the only one, who is pretty sure, John said it as a joke. That he really didnt mean it? Thats why he left it in final cut? Because he thought that people will get it?
@@MichaelSzatmary no, he was serious. He also belittles Sam in almost every video.
John used to play in the nfl, he's used to poeple running into 300lbs not running away, big dudes always poke fun at us skinny guys but he didnt actually expect him to stop it, he would've been paying sam workers comp right now 😂
That thing would’ve definitely injured John if the places were swapped bc his dumb ass would’ve tried to catch it
John was lucky as Sam did not try to stop the slab otherwise it would become a personal injury at work leading to possible lawsuit.
I would have gotten mad at my employee if they had actually tried to get under that falling table
Yeah.
"Don't die" should be a reasonable policy in any shop.
I guess he feels the same , but it was a spur of the moment thing to say.
I build expensive custom displays for stores. I tell all my guys, if something is falling, get out of the way. We can build a new display but it's hard to build a new you.
It's a bunch of dudes in a shop. It's all good.
No doubt, at the end of the day, he knows dodging was the right move.
In the moment however, it's like "WTF man!? All ya had do do was jump on the grenade!" This is just how blue collar men communicate.
@@ck_sidekick8306 Sure, but they could have chosen to edit the video in several different ways, and this choice made John look like a bit of a dick.
" You didn't even think to try and like stop it" ... I BEG YOUR PARDON?
Sam (?) would have been squashed , it was good he jumped out of the way, sad for the table but good for the person
Im glad this is #1 comment, owes that kid an apology
Even John would have probably been on the floor, maybe not injured, but on the floor for sure. Sam was even holding the guide... Guide + heavy slab sounds like something bad
Stitch it
Things said in the heat of the moment tend to not be fueled by logic, he clearly doesn't blame them for not catching it, as he said, shit happens.
Sam did a good job starting safe.
As for John, I have no word to tell. First video seen, last video seen.
For anyone else working there, live this workplace the sooner you can if you don't want to live through gruesome things.
There is a video that was posted two weeks after this one where he does come in at the beginning and say he has apologized to Sam and that the very day they actually all hashed everything out among everyone. He also apologized again in the video to Sam and it seemed completely genuine imo.
@kathleenburns7065 i wouldn't buy that for a second. Apologies are often for show- and this guy is 100% show. His entire staff needs to quit & spread awareness in their town so new employees at least know what they're in for.
Was nervous the comments weren’t going to call put John’s behaviour being pretty damn terrible this video. Glad to see everyone coming to Sam’s defense!! We love you Sam!!!!
unsub for Sam!
Stitch it! Also, you owe Sam a public apology. Ain't no way he could catch that ,he's a tiny dude, might have been seriously injured if he would have attempted to get in the way of that huge piece
Sarcasm detection is pretty hard, but I feel confident my detector wasn't broken during that video
Tiny dude or 350lb dude you let that shit drop. No way anyone should be trying to catch that big slab while it was in motion.
Doesn't matter how big you are, it's never worth getting injured to protect your boss's bottom line.
@@Mount56 Public opinion is that your detector is very much broken or in need of fresh calibration.
@randomname4726 public opinion is typically so soft these days that they are bound to be offended by something, doesn't mean they're right.
Working for John has to be like working for a toddler who gets angry when stuff is stressful haha
Why do you think everyone leaves??
To be fair thats just about any trades shop though. Especially small ones. But normally even with something like that as a possibility, you get very well taken care of and actually treated like family (not just the BS PR saying lol). It's basically working with your dad and you cant hold the damn flashlight right no matter how much you point it right where he says XD. Places like that have cons but also a lot of pros.
Lol, I cannot believe he got mad that his employee didn't nicely lay down his $200 track to throw himself under a table he's not going to use or sell.
I think most of the time he actually doesn't mean what he says when things go wrong like that. I have actually had friends and people I worked with who during the time it happened, they would say things like what he said to Sam about catching the desk and then afterwards they would come back and apologize cause the heat of the moment got to them. We don't know what happened off camera and although it would be really nice to see him come back and say it on camera for us viewers, I hope he did just make sure his workers were alright after the whole thing. Like he wrote on screen, if no one spoke for supposedly two hours, its like they were in shell shock over what had happened.
But I don't know him personally, I can only know what I see on screen. I only have my own experience to pull from and what I see in his habits on screen. Maybe thats me wanting to believe in the best in people... but I would hope that is the case.
thats the type of boss you put strong laxatives into his coffee every 3rd day till he complains about shitting blood then you just enjoy the rest of your week
Especially after he JUMPED OFF A LADDER ONTO HIS KNEES TO CATCH A BEAM Jesus man you gotta check yourself
The beam catch was truly awesome. Give Sam a raise.
What video was the beam catch
@@sirmilesspitzoodle8929 one or two weeks ago, I think it was a home build
@@sirmilesspitzoodle8929 fireplace in his bedroom
Here’s the fix needed: An apology video to Sam.
I watch
Pour it.
Also, you owe Sam a public apology. Ain't no way he could catch that while holding a track. Don't make him feel like shit for protecting himself. Sheesh.
Yeah, boss mans fault. Priorities, don't risk big items. Get another helper to hold a track lol.
Sadly i havent seen the part when Sam got scolded for no reason, but how John acts with his employees sums up working in a private company.
Bless Sam for being safe tho, good on him saving his life
I like that no one cares about how to fix the table and are just shitting on John’s behavior, he deserves it in this video. Lighten up dude. Put together a better plan before just stressing out your guys.
things fucking up is why we watch. football player likes wood. lol
him jumping in and not putting a plan together and prepping people beforehand was really hard to watch, setting people up to fail is not good.
@@customecraftycarpenting7471 if you enjoy watching people fail and drama unfold you must have a very unhappy life. I watch to see creation take place and hopefully learn something from a well laid plan. Anyone entertained by drama usually enjoys it to justify their own drama, or they’re just twisted people.
Agreed - I have a shop and although I like the projects in his videos I find his planning painful and employee treatment painful to watch. These are related - one trickles down from the other. Part of being good in a shop is not just getting better with your hands and probem solving but all your boss skills including how you organize, interact with employees think about safety while doing so. After all the videos and projects that have been made John seems to have no concept of this until all the viewers have to point it out to him
@@carpenter1138 The other issue I noticed when they bend the first leg is he's trying to do it and doesn't have any ability to direct anyone else since both his hands are in use and he's busy. would have been loads better if he instructed someone else to do that so he could supervise and direct. or again explain beforehand and give everyone tasks and explain what would be required of them.
Jhon being flattened in the comments harder than Sam would've been irl if he tried catching that table.
unsub for Sam!
Did they edit the video cause I didn’t hear him say anything about catching it
@@mine6312Something like you didn't think to stop it, or you didn't think to catch it... right after it fell
@@mine6312 HOLEY CRAP YES THEY DID. WOW! The whole sad 20 second bit/ song from 28:40 to 29:10 was changed! Scumbag Malecki stealth edit to make himself not look like a total jerk.
I believe his actual quote to Sam was, "you didn't even try to stop it?", but when this dude edits it out....
John, Im seeing the edited video but from the comments I gather you gave Sam hell for not thinking to catch the table. He definitely thought to catch it as you see his hand go out to grab it but smartly realized there was nothing he could actually do. You however are the one who dropped the table. The first time it was clamped up, the table was a bit higher and you stayed up there. This time, the table was lower and the split second you put your weight on the table is when the clamp shot out. You need to address Sam's good decision to let the table fall, safety first. As you said, you have 2 slabs. You only have 1 Sam.
this comment is way too undervalued! this should be top comment
I couldn't care less about the aftermath "why didn't you catch it" stuff, but the thing that really cemented my distaste is the constant
"I am being unprepared!!! why aren't you all anticipating my needs!?!!??"
Yep, some pathological sh*t throughout the entire video.
So this version has been edited to remove the scene where John asks Sam why he didn't think to "catch it". Gotta say, seeing this behavior is disappointing to say the least. In Sam's defense, he did stick his arm/hand out but quickly realized he was in danger. I would have let it drop too. Sam's arm being broken (or possibly severed) would have cost way more than a $2K slab of wood. Good quick thinking "Sam".
So now it's here for posterity so anyone who reads this comment can imagine it's worse than it is. So now you edited out reality and what we have is false facts, fake news BS. Typical for the times. What we should have is a video with an apology. I wouldn't treat an employee like that, but I saw the original and I did not thok it was that bad in the moment. But an apology was called for. So no apology, BYE John. You're a good woodworker, just be that.
If it’s edited out, how would you know?
@@mikej5959 It was in the original video when in dropped last week. Read through the comments. He got tons of backlash for how he treated the guys after it broke. So they took those parts out.
I saw the original video as well. He is not lying John was a giant ass and got on Sam for not trying to stop the slab from falling. Lost a lot of respect for him seeing his true character come through. I’m betting the guy John hired as an editor received a lot of heat for putting the video out as it originally was.
Editing it out makes this even worse.
I don’t even care how this plays out. Unsubscribed last week. Checked in because someone liked a comment. Now I see it’s edited out, but it still doesn’t change the shit show this build was, filmed or not, uploaded or not, edited or not. It happened. And that’s a problem.
I jumped for my phone to comment on this after watching it on my TV… an apology is badly needed to Sam!!
Me too he was the reason it fell when he climbed his wide load up onto the table anyway then get sideways with the only guy willing to put up with him to do the project. Smh
John, you're a very talented, accomplished woodworker However, as a manager you have a lot to learn.
John, when you're holding up a piece and having a hard time explaining how to put on clamps. Let one of them hold the piece (no explanation needed) and demonstrate how to clamp on one side while the other side follows your lead.
LEADERSHIP 101
Editing the video to remove the abusive comments towards Sam (as well as when John basically asked Sam to kill himself, in what was the worse shop safety I've ever seen) without an apology comes across as an attempt to hide it. This way there is no evidence of the abuse and John can easily brush it under the rug instead of actually doing better. This is what serial abusers do. You can bet the Sam is still getting yelled at and dunked on, you just won't see it now.
The reactions from John aren't jokes, that's pretty clear. You don't edit out a bunch of "jokes" like this. When someone gets called out and they hide what they are being called out over, it's not progress.
You can't be a better woodworker John unless you fix your mistakes, instead of just hiding them all the time. The biggest mistake you made in this project was having no fucking plan. You clearly had not sat down with the team to go through the steps of the slab. That's what the guys in the video you watched do, not just scream at people when they can't read your mind. 90 percent of running a good shop is planning. You're not running a good shop.
wow, dodged a bullet on this channel.
outta here
I only saw the cut video, and even I thought, "Man, he needs to lighten up. What an abusive asshole."
I can't imagine what the original video showed.
Been peed off long ago with this guys bully, crass behaviour. Unsubscribed then it came back on again. He has no backbone as a man.
Came here to pretty much say this. Being the boss and being unprepared. Then yelling at your guys because you didn't make a plan and things went sideways. That makes you a bad boss.
@@JustMe-fl1db I'm not rewatching the whole thing (I just rewatched the part where it fell) so I can't comment on the other stuff they edited out - but for the table falling off part; John SCREAMED at Sam asking why the F he didn't catch it, screamed F a bunch of times before storming off screen, came back "later" with the caption of "no one spoke for 2 hours" Sam saying "I'm scared" in a very small, scared voice. Chris looking freaked out, Sam looking freaked out, John acting like everyone else was the problem except for him.
In this edit; there's none of the tension beyond the actual crack/break.
In fact, the entire thing was so bad (the original version) it triggered my PTSD - I had a chronically abusive ex 12 years ago and this basically brought it all rushing back to the surface. The attitude John had with sam (and chris tbf), the screaming, the acting like everyone else is at fault (even when it _conceivably_ could be considered "bad luck" rather than shitty planning). It really makes me question the type of "boss" he is and how "locked in" his employees are.
Pour it and promote Sam for doing the right thing! Give him a raise cuz he just saved you a boat load of money from an injury.
Boy. Johns's “True Colors” really came out in this video. Didn't they? I understand things getting a little more tense while doing large projects like this one. Honestly, most people do. What most don't do is bag on their Employees while also being passively aggressive. That's a good way to lose Great employees.
And not able to prepare anything...
Or lead, or execute tasks, ir do damn near anything other than lift sh*t. John does not belong in a shop- and especially doesn't belong in a shop as the boss. He should stick with tinkering in his garage, alone.
This is the Orange County Choppers of wood working. 😂
bro wtf, John gets mad at Sam (who is holding the track saw that he was asked to grab) instead of planning out the cut like a professional. Typical manager tantrum. Why do I continue watching these videos?
Sam should call in OSHA and report some of that unsafe shit they do.
All I could imagine when John mentions the one guy disappearing when things get “fun”. No he dipped because he saw his boss doing dangerous nonsense and removed himself from the vicinity to not be part of it.
You can just tell you’ll have to walk on egg shells around John when he’s stressed I couldn’t work with him
I was going to comment exactly this. I thought for sure I was going to open the comments and see nothing about it but thankfully a bunch of other people noticed as well. John seems like a good guy, but when he's stressed, look out because he gets the bully mentality and it must be miserable to be there during it.
If the table fix vid doesn't include a public apology to Sam, I'm out. There's plenty of other talented woodworkers to watch.
Same. And the apology better be sincere, not just to appease the viewers.
A bonus for Sam couldn't hurt for putting up with Johns moods.
Dude, yes, this 10000%. It feels like working with this dude is super super toxic, but he's probably used to people putting up with it because of the YT fame. It's disgusting. Sam, don't let this guy define your worth! You're a talented guy with a ton of potential!
unsub for Sam!
Editing the video to remove everything that you got called out for is Shady AF.
well seeing as they edited out his freaking out on sam, I'm guessing that is the apology.
The slab fell apart? No biggie.
I tell You what i would do in this situation.
I would hand you my two weeks notice and take my ass out of this toxic environment.
Once you've worked under such a person you easily recognise the signs. Like the panic mode everyone's in all the time. Like working without any plan because everyone avoids saying anything because the boss knows best and loudest. Like avoiding being in the room when you suspect something is going to go south.. instead of trying to prevent something going south.
Yeah... this workshop is one stresful place to be.
I just hope they earn enough to substantiate this.
And kudos for the video editor. Quite a feat cutting out all the spicy bits and still showing anything being done.
I wish your comment was pinned at the top. It lays it all out, clear and simple.
"I used to be an offensive lineman in the NFL".
Now he's just offensive to his staff.
Funny, search him up and it looks like he never made the starting NFL line up. Just stayed on the training roster
@@waynasfamilyadventures147 that makes it even funnier lmao
John, you're the boss and in charge for others "mistakes". You messed it up, no one else.
While I didn't see the unedited video, I was still getting the major douchebag vibes from the guy John, who apparently causes others to suffer from his case of headuphisassitis. However, I respectfully would disagree that who ever is "in charge" is solely responsible for other's mistakes. Trust me, no one is more compassionate, or more prone to bending over backwards to help keeping others safe at work, and helping them to understand the scope and potential consequences than I am. But even so, I've had many people who have worked for me who may start out with a good attitude, and aura of professionalism, but that can all turn to sh!t the moment someone decides they don't give a flying bleep about what they are doing.
In short, everyone involved in making a mistake should own up to it. A captain may go down with his ship, but that doesn't stop a crew member from sinking it ;)
@@Rick-the-Swiftit's never an accident when you get that attitude from people, specially when there was a sudden change. Most commonly it happens when the boss deserved it. Also its very common, that the one that says "im the most..." Tends to be
one of the worst
Karma got ya good there Johnny boy😂 imagine what he’s like off camera to his staff
Was thinking the same thing. I wouldn't have any employees if I spoke to people like that.
Apply the glue when the wood is 'relaxed', then apply the clamps. That way the glue is 'forced' into the wood as it is bent back to the shape you want. Very easy to remove the excess glue that is pushed out when the wood is bent into the shape you desire.
Sam did react for a split second and thought about trying to catch it but he made the right call by just barely getting out of the way. Save your own life not the life of a table, good reaction Sam.
Yes , you see him think about it but his hands were full , just no time.
Glad to see the respect for workplace safety in the comments, big agree on what most everyone is saying.
Heat of the moment stuff gets said, do hope for a proper apology. I'd assume that's already been done. But an onscreen recap and correction goes a long way for a community not in the loop of everything real time.
Regarding the fix to the project, I like the resin option.
I said this in another comment but if they really did stand there for 2 hours saying nothing, it sounded like a bit of shell shock for them. Even though he yelled about catching it, I think he actually ended more more relieved that he could yell at him after the fact then to have Sam laying underneath the thing. While that sounds messed up, its something I have heard from the older generation, that they may be yelling at you, but they are yelling cause they are relieved you aren't hurt.
Even if Sam wasn't holding the track for the saw, the thing fell in an instant. 'You didn't even think to try and catch it?' No, he didn't think at all. He reflexively reacted in a split second and made the correct decision to save himself from serious injury or worse. And to even have a chance of catching that thing safely you'd have to be a huge mfer, with free hands, in perfect position, and also not have the human reaction of jumping out of the way of huge, heavy things falling toward you very quickly. Maybe don't rely on a couple of small clamps below the center of gravity of an object that weighs hundreds of pounds that you have standing on end? Maybe don't blame your employees for executional/planning/managerial issues.
Not to mention john weighs at least 250 and he literally JUMPED on a table that has a peice of a tree clamped to it but its sams fault it broke!!
@@dustinlalonde8460where did you see him jump?

I wanna see that too

did you find it?
"Why didn't you try to stop it?!?!" Are you nuts? A multi hundred pound piece of wood is falling towards you, you move! If he tried to catch it, a broken bone would have been the best case scenario. I know people get invested in projects but it's never worth a debilitating injury or worse.
Ok, I'm not a woodworker, but that's a multi hundred pound slab of wood that you wanted Skinny Sam to get infront of John. Which would you rather have, a broken table, or an injured worker and a worker's comp case?
And or a lawsuit for unsafe working conditions.
He was being facetious. 🙄
@@KB3AOL He clearly wasn't.
@@KB3AOL No he was throwing a tantrum and blaming everyone but himself.
Definitely get mad at your employees for not putting themselves in harms way.
Great idea. I'm sure OSHA loves that.
He was definitely joking jeeze
Chill out everyone.
@@stormtrooperjeepjkAre we sure Sam realized that? Even if they all know he was right to move out of the way, this planted a seed of doubt and could cause him to second guess such situations in the future.
@@roguered706Yes, Sam, as well as all rational thinking people do realize that.
He was not joking. Sams face says it all. Even if he was joking, keeping that in the video was a dumb idea considering how bad it makes John look.
Poor planning. Poor execution. Lack of risk assessment. Inappropriate clamping. And that glue was never going to hold up, look at the contact area where it broke.
And a way over complicated leg fix.
John is good at finding ways to cover his mistakes. They edited the original video. So, I guess we can just all forget how he treated Sam. All good now john!
OMG, i was thinking like 5 min where he mistreats Sam and this is the answer. Thats sad af :/
He edited out the douchebagery?? He was rude to Sam the entire video and then shouted at him for not catching it when it fell, and now all that has been edited out. That's really shady man
How would you know that if it’s edited out?? Trying to catch you I’m just trying to understand.
I saw the video when it first came out. You can see from all the comments how much backlash he got, then he went and edited it to make it look better
@@Connor-s1kthat’s weird asf but even with the edits he did come off as rude yelling at his employees every time he was stressed
Even after the editing..... I would not want to work for this guy..
First time viewer, so I am going to give my 5 cents worth!
I have managed 100's of staff members and I have never spoken down to any one of them like this. He may be a talented fella with the wood, but his management skills leave a lot to be desired. In Australia, if he'd had spoken down to a person like he did, a man or in some cases a woman, is gonna drop you on your ass! He swears consistently, and has anger issues. At the end of the day, the only thing one can be in control of is ones own attitude. I'd never subscribe to a channel like this, I do not understand why anyone would!
Seeing how he treats this Sam makes me wonder why the last Sam really left.
I wonder as well.
Bad boss: You didn't even think to try to stop it?
Good boss: Is everybody ok?
The other Sam, Jordan... I'm sure the list goes on for people that are not filmed, Think he needs to do some self reflection to stop putting people down that clearly want to do the right thing.
that sam left because he has crazy potential and he actually started doing his own thing, awesome dude, starting a life.
unsub for Sam!
Of all the tools you could use to HAMMER something in, you chose to use a measuring tape. I love you man, you brighten my day
John gets a gun pointed at him.
John: “Sam, you didn’t even think about stepping in front of the gun?”
They've edited the video. Originally John asked him why he didn't try to catch the slab. That part's gone now.
thanks for confirming that, its what i guessed from seeing the combination of the video and the comments but i wasnt sure
If this is as close as Sam gets to an apology I’m
100% out
Thanks, I was wondering what people were on about and I couldn't see him having a go at Sam.
It seems like snippets all throughout the video have been cut out too. John was pretty much on one in this video and 90% of the backhanded comments have been taken out.
Basically makes everything look MUCH worse.
I watched it after the video, and the whole video just feels off. John has always been kind of a douche, but here it just feels like his abusing his position. They're not his friends, they're his employees.
I never agree with the people that say "I would hate to work for him" UNTIL I heard him say "you didn't even think to try to stop it?" Fuck off dude... I'm the supervisor in a sign fabrication shop and I always tell the guys "if it starts to go don't try to stop it just get out of the way and let it go it cost alot less to bondo a dent then it does repair a broken bone or stitch up a damn head.. and if it's a total loss it's way easier to tell the boss we gotta start over vs the boss tell your wife you got crushed under a 40' tall chunk of aluminum
LOL yeah, that all made sense instantly
That is absolutely right. 👍🏻 Seems like you are a better Boss than John.
I remember now why I never subscribed to this channel. And no it’s not the broken table or amateur handling of the clamping or the commercial tv reno style format.
You don't pay him enough to catch 300 lb slabs of wood.
Nobody does. And nobody should. That is just nonsense
He even said it is the video. The proper way to do this is to have a form. And they chose to do this stupid thing. They should have just created a form instead of putting people's safety at risk.
@@joe_ferreira Imagine making a form instead of using 6 different kinds of clamps, bolting in a freaking strap and jumping on a table with a handsaw to level cut the bottom while a massive slab of wood is held by what I assume is an aluminum bar and 2 tiny-ass clamps (no straps, no wedges, everyone just watching/chilling and not supporting).
If they'd made a form we wouldn't have seen at least 5 examples of extremely dumb choices in 1 video. It's as if me and my buds tried to do this but none of us have ever done woodworking lmao.
Coming to the comments section to see if more people are commenting "Stitch it" or "Pour it."...Free.
Finding out that nobody cares and everyone is (justifiably) pissed at how John treats his employees...Priceless
Exactly what I just experienced...
@@corypeter739 aaaand me
I say pour it
Yep. That prick is the guy who refuses to look up directions because he thinks he knows everything, and then blames the innocent driver for getting him lost. I cannot imagine knowing that guy. His personal life must be a revolving door.
john seems like the type of guy who thinks everything is everyone else's fault and everyone but him is incompetent he really said why didnt you stop it and if it was sam who got on the table hed say whyd u jump on the table so hard and shake the clamps loose

John, that awesome boss with a stupid plan or zero plan, and it’s your fault when it doesn’t work. What a prick
Pour it over words that say "Sorry Sam" to remind you that you need to treat Sam better and that you were the one making a mistake
John's one of those bosses that causes their employees to be on edge and nervous about their every move. I imagine it's miserable.
I disagree. I think he'd be fun to work for. I have that sense of humor though. I also thoroughly enjoy trash talk while working.
@@johnmcneeley5880I work with a bunch of other law enforcement officers and retired military people. We do some pretty aggressive trash talking. I don’t believe John would’ve laughed if Sam “joked” back - not if it took him two hours to cool off and speak again. He was pissed.
100% agree. He seems so stressed out and always puts the blame on someone else.
He's constantly in a state of panic. He repeats "Never done this before" but has 0 preparation except the CNCed cuts and can't communicate for shit.
Multiple times he's almost yelling at people "go around, clamp there, we need to be fast" meanwhile they're scattered looking for clamps instead of just preparing like 20 in a pile or, I dunno, spending 2mins to discuss which side each person will handle and how to do what they need to do.
Pour it! Kudos on Sam for not getting splattered across the shop floor. Ya'll best be buying that lad a beer or 3 for keeping OSHA out of the picture. Take care & stay safe ya'll.
He doesn't have enough employees for OSHA authority.
15:30 Hint: A table saw blade can be measured for thickness, but the cut will be SLIGHTLY thicker because it's nearly impossible to have zero wobble in a blade. You really want to do a test cut and measure the cut's channel width, not measure the saw blade's thickness. It very well might make a 0.125" cut. Also, as I said in my previous video, stick to damned decimal!!!
That reaction when it broke wasn't right man ur employees safety should be your #1 priority in moment's like that
Don't be a fkn nerd. Obviously/immediately it was known that the two employees were not crushed or missing
@@cokevspepsi516 aww someone is trying to be a tuff guy 🍪 here you go for trying ur best
Banter can only be called such when it's a two way street. When it's not a two way street, it's called abuse.
this was not a two way street.
Also, expecting Sam who's about 1/4 the size of John to "try to catch" that monstrous slab in order to "save it" is moronic. At best you've got an employee with broken bones. At worst, you're planning a funeral. Joking or not, that's not right. On any count. No one says "I'm scared" in that small of a voice unless they're honestly rattled and honestly scared. I was *terrified* and I wasn't even there. Not to mention the entire video triggered my PTSD and anxiety through the abuse John was hurling at his employees - as I've gone through abuse like that as an employee (in a different line of work) that still affects me now (clearly). No one deserves to be treated like that, spoken to like that, especially when the boss himself doesn't have a clue what he's doing and has no plan.
Be a better human.
unsub for Sam!
Yup. Everyone is talking about the table falling but John's behavior was pretty bad since they started bending. This makes me wonder how he treats him employees / friends off-camera.
Maybe once you’re done crying, you could actually try and do something difficult and put your hard earned money into it. You’ll realize it can be frustrating.. but you won’t do that, because you’re a girly boy
@@chadcurtiss5965 nice sexism/homophobia
John, I love your videos and you make some amazing works of art. That said, this entire video was a demonstration on how not to treat people/employees. From telling them to hurry in clamping something, bitching about the blade width, to getting on Sam for not diving in front of the falling slab......all around fail my man. Never had the pleasure of meeting you and based on your other videos, you seem to have a big heart, but on this project, not the case!
I know this is a few months old but........ I literally was laughing so hard I almost passed out. Not laughing at you, Laughing WITH you.
Piss poor planning. I feel bad for the guys trying their hardest to please boss man.
yeah, why is HE the "muscle" holding up the end when HE should be the one putting on the clamps and squares? Why didn't they take a long clamp or even a cable from one end to the other to apply the force? POOR planning for sure. And with a steam bend, if it doesn't work, then how do they get it back in the steam box? they should have let it sit in the box quite a bit longer if it felt too stiff. And once they found that the blade didn't have enough kerf, they should have gone in there with something, (even a sharp chisel!) to ease those inside kerfs. putting the glue in afterwards is not going to be great either
Exactly this. It was piss-poor planning and execution throughout. They seemed to just be winging it throughout and making things up as they went. They didn't even set up proper forms or anything to hold such a huge slab at 90 degrees, then wondered why it didn't work. It was a joke from start to finish.
100% I've literally walked out on guys that plan poorly then blame you for their F ups. the way they had that table clamped to cut it was a recipe for disaster
I’m sure John will be sure to consult the do nothing, keyboard warrior on the internet next time he tries something crazy/cool like this that he’s never done before. Clearly your years of experience being useless and complaining online have instilled you with infinite god tier levels of wisdom and know how.
@@oh-totorothat tends to be how things go when your trying something totally knew and don’t really know what you’re doing.. easy to say it’s all wrong from the comfort of your lazy boy, typing comments on your phone.

"They say 1 hour per inch, but we are just going to do an hour." "It is not as bendy as i thought i would be." lol
Well, since it only has to bend at the cuts and the cuts removed most of the thickness, that's not necessarily a problem.
140 years ago, master craftsmen at places like Thonet or Kohn made bent wood furniture by REAL bending without cutting. I'm not impressed, sorry guys !

Normally I’m all in, but this video just felt like John being super mean to his staff for 30 minutes.
To be fair they are working in a high stress situation and weren't really performing. It sucks holding heavy or awkward things watching your co-workers fumble around.

I am an example of what happens when the person "catches it." (and this was thought out in advance by the boss but poorly)Two of use were taking directions from my boss (coincidentally named Jon) at the time at a popular children's museum in CA. I was new at the time so I didn't know much about the boss and trusted him. We were unloading an exhibit from a concrete loading dock and he said he would tip it over and the two of us could catch it because it was "light". The two of us could not tell either way by looking at it. When the Boss tipped it over it was so heavy that it slipped through the hands of the other guy across from me who was in his 60's. I was younger and stronger and managed to get ahold of it. Long story short It jerked me down to the floor and jammed 3 of my vertibrae together grinding part of them away and pinching nerves in the process. It turned out the exhibit weighed almost 450 lbs because they had put lead bricks(yes they exist) inside to weight it at the bottom. IN this case he blamed me for deciding to catch it when it slipped through the other guys hands. Over the next 2 months I lost the feeling in 2 of my fingers in my dominant hand, had severe neck pain and it heavily effected everything from my work to how I slept at night. Yes there was physical therapy and medical covered by the jobs but I will have pain for the rest of my life and there are chunks missing from 2 vertibrae and permanent nerve damage. Even as I type this one of my fingertips can't feel it when it hits the keys. 6 mos later I was fired for failing to meet work performance reviews. I went back to working for myself and have been happier ever since. When someone else is in charge of your safety they need understand what this means. Don't be a John or a Jon.
This is testimony as to why I felt it was paramount to get out of the construction biz, luckily while I was still young enough to escape unharmed and in relatively good health. I can't tell you how many near death experiences I had in the 10 years or so that I worked in the trades, usually because the boss man was pushing for end results, without being a good communicator, and often not having enough experience in unique situations. I once hung from gabled facia boards about 25 feet up, with nothing but adrenaline strength keeping my hands gripped to the underside of the boards, as the scaffold beneath me teetered then crashed to the ground. Imagine a crab dangling from the peak of the roof, that was me for about 5 seconds until everything settled and I dropped down onto a board that had gotten caught in the first story window that was leaning at a 45 degree angle about 8 feet below me. I somehow managed to land on that board perfectly, without breaking my ankles or neck..
Combine these types of instances with the fact that during my 10 years, I don't recall even one employer offering me health insurance, or workman's comp etc. although I did sign a few waivers stating that I was solely responsible for my own body and any injuries that I may incur while working on someone's property. At least you were fortunate enough to have decent healthcare coverage.
I hope you may still be able to continue to recover from your lifelong injuries, and thank you for sharing your story.
I will say two words fork lift. A fork lift and straps should have been used and not humans. The boss was an idiot.
I have seen and been around... no job is as important as the rest of your life.... be your own boss... if you work for others be ready to find new others if need be
Yeah, but that slab wasn’t 450 pounds.
My mom was in a car accident 15 years ago. She has been in chronic pain ever since. Recently she was given an epidural nerve block injection. She still has pain, but the injection has helped significantly. She called me the other day in happy tears because she can finally sleep through the night without the pain keeping her up.
I write this, in case the injection could possibly help you and your pain.
i used to have a boss that talked to me the way you talk to your employees, just stopped showing up to work one day. high time i turned off recommendations for this channel because this shit kills my mood every time
Whenever my children tell me that they were just joking, I tell them that if the other person isn't laughing, then they aren't joking.
I am a lot bigger than Sam, and there is NO way in fucking hell that I would have tried to catch that big ass slab falling. Not a good reaction to blame him for showing intelligence.
He was just talking ish, im 1000% sure he didnt wanna see sam get hurt just to save a video
He cared enough to not edit out his stupid reaction when he made the video. Those guys need to find another place to work so they don’t have to deal with that toddler’s ego.
Go back on watch the part at .25 speed, Sam actually thinks about catching the slab for about 1/10th of a second then does the smart thing and nopes out.

Somebody should send OSHA this video along with the previous one where Sam fell off the ladder holding a beam of wood, see if John doesn't change his tune.
I know this is all new and therefore stressful, believe me. But honestly it’s up to the boss man to make sure everything is ready to go and in place. Coming up with the game plan and making sure all clamps and cauls are ready, communicating exactly how it’s gonna go and who does what. You’d get a lot more respect out of your team that way. I can feel the vibe of “you guys are incompetent” through the video so I can’t imagine what it’s like irl. That’s gonna affect your business. Cool to see a video on mistakes being made just like all of us in the real world. 👍
John has A LOT of faith in the protective abilities of Shop Shades if he thought Sam could safely catch that.
