I work as a Walmart pusher and one of the things we do is sanitize the carts with disinfectant to help with the virus.
About a month ago they asked us to start filing our sprayers halfway with water to save on supply.
Diluting our sanitizer just dosent feel right at all...
It's all lip service from them with no action. My Walmart sets out a roll of dry paper towels and an empty spritz bottle at the entrance, inviting shoppers to sanitize their carts. Fat lot of help that is. I shop there once or twice a week, and only one time was there a damp product available to wipe down the cart handle.
I work as a cart collector in Australia, the supermarket only cleans the trolleys a few times a day, and tells the customers that they are sanitized
At the dealership I worked at we (the detailers) were asked to use automotive glass cleaner to clean the entire dealership
Actual soap breaks apart the fat structure that holds viruses together.
One bottle of Dawn, diluted to dishwashing levels can be used to clean everything like that, cheaply and easily.
Its basic science. The amount of people in American management jobs, who don't know that is astonishing.
I used to work for a nursing home where the administration would routinely make employees work off the clock without compensation. The nursing staff would yell at, get physical with, or straight up neglect the residents with dementia on a daily basis without repercussions. If any issues were brought up with HR then the person making the complaint would get yelled at. I called the Dept of Labor and was told that since there was no record of people working past their shifts that there wasn't anything they could do. I called HIPAA about the abuse and it seems nothing was done about that either. Nursing homes can get away with murder because money talks when investigators come to "investigate". Needless to say, I quit and I will NEVER put my family members in a nursing home regardless of how dire the situation.
Am I the only one that listens to these videos while doing chores or taking a shower etc? Like put the phone down, turn up the volume and just do your thing while you listen?
Nope. I do this all the time

All the time. I'm pooing rn!

Not unethical but unfair. When I was younger I had a job at the super market. It was part time so I went and got another part time job at bath and body works. My boss at the market was PISSED. He told me I had to choose between the 2 jobs. Then he fired me. This ended up being an issue where court was involved. It all went in my favor
I worked at a language school in South Korea back in 2005, towards the end of my contract I was asked to help find my replacement and was told by my Korean boss to do the interviews and specifically listen to see if the candidate sounded Black. Oh claimed she wasn't racist, but that she didn't want to hire a black teacher because she thought parents wouldn't want their kids learning English from a black person, I did the interviews and secretly told every candidate the truth, you really don't want this job. Finished my contract and left Korea for Thailand and have never looked back. (I think I even did a Charlie Chaplin style jumping heel click as I got on the plane.)
That guy who was fired for talking about vaping on Reddit should report his workplace. Whistleblower laws says it is illegal for a workplace to fire someone for exposing issues and they could face a big fine if they violate that law
?
@@joeyknight8272 What ?
It depends on the state
Nexpo?
Whistleblower laws are only enforcible if the company investigating them are honest. However, there is corruption in every corner of every business, these days, even in places like OSHA. When businesses fail to provide adequate compensation for their workers and a company is dishing out hush money to those "ethical investigators" then those companies can and will do whatever they want. The Dept of Labor, OSHA, EEOC, HIPAA...all corrupt and easily persuaded to look the other way for the right price.
I used to work for the guy that created Volt, that horrible contracting firm that basically ruined the tech industry and made it so that full time work is unheard of anymore. Yeah, the fact that you can't get benefits or overtime, or job security anymore, is because of him.
Anyway, back before the company got as big as it is now, we were bidding on a big multimillion contract that would have really launched the company into the big league, but our test lead who had built the software, test cases, and ran the offshore team that was the central focus of the work the contract was bidding on had left a few days prior to a really big meeting with the potential client that would decide the whole thing. My boss, Glenn Hoogerworf, brought me into his office and essentially told me to pretend to be the test lead for the big presentation, and told me he'd managed to crack the old lead's PW to get his notes for me to study so I could give a believable performance.
Obviously, I was terrified, I was just the marketing manager, I knew literally nothing about test engineering. I was young, still relatively fresh, I knew no coding languages whatsoever, outside of Salesforce and some basic SQL I literally had no idea what any of that stuff meant. All the lines of code the old lead had written were gibberish to me. Plus, what Glenn was asking me to do was WILDLY unethical. Lying to a huge, powerful organization for monetary gain, yeah, no way this could backfire, nope nope. 🙄
Thankfully, and unbeknownst to Glenn, I had been poached by Microsoft to go work for XBL. I had been holding off putting in my two weeks' notice until after the big day to spare him the added stress, but after he tried to pull that stunt, I pulled a donk move and told him I was quitting on the spot. WA is an at-will employment state, so I could quit anytime with no notice. I felt bad, but I also knew that if I had gone through with the charade, it would have had serious negative repercussions for my career. The games industry is EXTREMELY insular, everyone knows everybody, and your reputation precedes you no matter where you go. It would have been obvious in that meeting that I didn't know what I was doing, and since my last name is extremely unique, every last hiring manager from then on would recognize me and know me as an incompetent liar. As a young woman just starting out in the tech world, I just couldn't afford that.
This was all so many years ago, yet I still distinctly remember that day...i can still recall how scared I was, the notes I was expected to memorize, how angry I felt for being offered up like a sacrificial lamb, and the pained look on Glenn's face when I told him I was leaving. I'm sorry, Glenn. I know I put you in a really bad situation, but you just weren't worth sacrificing my integrity over.
Damn. You doged one hella bullet.
Good on you! He sounds like an arse piece and yep, stuff him because he tried to put you in a bad situation to save his own skanky, arse piece, arse!! ❤️
I worked in accounts receivable. More often than you'd imagine, people would overpay their invoices (example bill due $100, amount paid $110.) For years I would flag the overpayments on clients statements so the extra money could be applied to new invoices or refunded at customer's request. Then the company was taken over by New York sharks. They asked me to "hide" any and all overpayments from our clients going forward in an "invisible" account. Nope, bye bye!!
That dead body in the isles in a Target isn’t shocking at all. Back when I worked in a grocery store and the active shooters were scaring the crap out of the country, our store had a policy to begin with that is there was a active shooter or a confirmed bomb in the store our first and only priorities were to protect the customers and use our bodies as shields if need be. Get them out as quick as possibly but we had to stay behind to make sure all the customers were out then the process of shutting down the store, moving all of the money out of the check stands, going through the entire store making sure everyone got out including checking the bathrooms then and only then could we leave. Well they changed that policy somewhat to if there is an active shooter and you have to, find an opportunity to actually fight the shooter when before we just have to be human shields. After watching some dopey shirt field about the change in policy, we went back down to get back to work and one of the woman I worked with said, “I think that would be the only feasible time when the store would close the store, if there was an active shooter.” “Oh I don’t know I think it would depend on where the shooter was...still in produce...keep checking people out. He’s not that great of an aim, the 200+ bullets he fired at your head only 2 or 3 came close enough to move your hair and only one grazed your arm...keep checking people out.”
We watched a video about an active shooter at my store, we were all convinced they'd hustle us back into the store as soon as the police got the guy. Our video does not say to protect customers, just get the hell out, tell anyone you meet on your way to get out, but you don't have to make them. Realistically, they don't want to have to pay our families for injuries or deaths if we get hurt following an order to protect anyone. But we are all pretty sure they'd expect us to ring people up even if there was blood on the floor behind us afterwards.
I used to work for KFC in Scotland. One Christmas they breaded up too many hot wings and mini fillets but they were still unfried by closing time. These products came in frozen and we defrosted them in fridges or in cold water. As we were closing and there was a lot of chicken just breaded, this was meant for the bin but oh no, our manager decided this was too much waste. He forced us to wash the breading off the raw chicken, put it all back in the bags he retrieved from the bins and refreeze it all. They were serving chicken that was twice defrosted. The bastard said 'well it won't be me effing eating that shit'. KFC also used to clock us all out by 1900 but we were working till 1945 and past 2030 at Christmas. Bullying was rife too
That thumbnail🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I was a pharmacy technician mixing IV bags and IV medication at the hospital. My boss started to try to force us to reuse drugs on multiple patients, save the leftovers, and use random expired drugs on the shelves to save the place money. We were disgusted by this and nobody did it. I quickly reported her and she ended up getting fired.
I was told to pass special education kids even though they didn't do any work during the 6 weeks
I used to work full time at the service desk of a grocery store where we processed money transfers pretty regularly. Due to our regular audits, those of us trained in bookkeeping were pretty strict about making sure the customers signed all the necessary documentation and frequently not getting a signature was one of the best ways to get a warning and then written up. To avoid this, one of our worst offenders once asked me to forge a signature on a form after the customer left without signing. The worst part is, another clerk had recently been fired after being caught forging a signature on one of these forms so I know this clerk knew he could get fired for it.
Now I work in insurance and honestly the worst thing I've been asked to do is forget I heard anything when someone tells me they have a child who has their driver's license. Those are hard because I can't unlearn the info and I'm required to add them as drivers when I know they're in the household cause they're such a bad risk. But the rates for adding them are insane so I totally wish I could just ignore it and give our insureds a break. Rates in our state are already so high.... :-/
I worked at a small BP once in NC. A customer comes in to buy alcohol with a food stamp card and I'm like, no can't do that. Then the owner comes over and puts it in the system as a food item and slides the card. He tells me to just do that from now on like it's no big deal. I quit that week.
wow ..well, it's not like it was smokes!??!? ;-)
Used to work at a McDonald's. Our apple pies would have a sticker that told you how long it was good for. Literally had a manager that would tell me to put a new sticker on them when the time expired. The stickers were good for like 6 hours and by the end of that time they were often hard as a rock and destined for the trash. But nope, this manager wanted to mark them good for an additional 6 hours to sell to a customer, so we wouldn't have food waste. Began leaving them in the back and not ever getting around to them and when there was no manager around dumping them. Sad part is some of my coworkers didn't question it and did it when asked.
That manager was studying to go into the healthcare field... Wouldn't want her to look after me..
My dad used to work for a big timeshare firm. Timeshare is a big scam. Well there was this really elderly couple, and my dads bosses wanted my dad to get them to upgrade to a gold membership. My dad took these people out for dinner and got to know them, they explained that they have cancer and want to go on holiday and enjoy the little bit of time they have left. My dad then contacted his boss and said he could not sell it to them and get them in debt, the boss said well you have to and you better hurry because they won’t be around long.
The person who said about the licence for booze is so right.
There was a story that a woman was a cashier and she sold alcohol to an underage kid who was sent in by police. Luckily she got to use the shops lawyers otherwise she would have been screwed.
8:30 I also lived in Halifax, Nova Scotia and answered an ad on Kijiji. It was those people in stores that offer a free gift (like a bag of cookies) to sign up for a credit card. They get paid for every application that goes through and the guy I went with as a training day said he was paid a few cheques but was still waiting for his big one he earned a month before. They would sign up and approve people who were on welfare or ones who didn't have any income at all. I went that one day and didn't go again. I saw the guy a few months later and he told me after months of working there, he only made a couple hundred bucks. It was a big scam.
2.30 ..... Call ATF. And keep working. Your boss would be facing a LARGE fine if he tryed to punnish you in any way for that phone call. And a nice lawsuit form you. And that's in addition to the fine he would have to pay after ATF got him for that sell.
Writing an employee up for taking food home at closing instead of trashing it or making them pay full price for it.
That's just sad .. that's how stealing happens .. just let them have the freaking leftovers
I was working in a warehouse as a secretary. Once the owner told not asked me to go and catch the mice as there was a problem with them coming into the office space. I told her lady you do not need a secretary, you need a cat and quit on the spot.

i sliced my thumb open once with a slightly rusty box cutter at my first job at a restaurant, there was nothing in the first aid kit (an osha violation). 5 minutes later and my thumb wouldn’t stop bleeding. when my shift manager told me to just “put a fresh paper towel over your thumb and tape it down” i called my manager and he said if the shift lead couldn’t send someone to to go get bandaids at the cvs down the street, for me to just go home.
i went home cause shift lead wouldn’t do that. i called my parents and my step mom immediately came home from her job (she’s a vet tech) and was unsure if i would need stitches so took me to an emergency clinic to get looked at by a human doctor and to get a tetanus shot. the doctor at the clinic said that the cut on my thumb was deep enough and in a risky spot close to some nerves that if i had stayed at work, and if the wound got infected, i could have lost feeling in my thumb or worse my entire thumb.
the feeling on my thumb where the scar is is still a little muted to this day.
i don’t work there anymore because a shitty manager returned the week after my thumb insistent for other reasons.
(shitty manager didn’t give everyone their deserved tips and kept them for herself. by state law, managers can only keep cash tips if they add it back onto the employee’s paychecks. which she didn’t do. i wasn’t making enough to put up with her other shit either. so i left)
Are you me? I had the same thing happen to me while working at an ice cream shop. They didn’t have a first aid kit, either. I also have a scar and nerve damage in that thumb.
I worked in a bar and some regulars used to take turns buying rounds. One of them was pretty drunk and said he didn't want any more drinks but another was buying another round. My manager told me to sell it and put the beer in front of him anyway. She also told me it doesn't matter how drunk someone is, if they're still buying, I need to serve them anyway.
I was a door to door salesman at a couple companies. Half of them would expressly tell me to ignore no solicitor signs and knock anyway.
Yup, one of the reasons we had to knock was because maybe they weren’t the one to put it up.
That black people hair on it’s not unethical my girlfriend is black and if someone who doesn’t specialize in black peoples hair would mess it up really bad but I get why some people would think it racist but black people hair is a lot more tricky to cut than white peoples hair
I worked at McDonald’s and I was told to dump the grease traps into a field
Working at a dealership as a detailer; A lot attendant hit a cement pillar with a customer's car, I was asked to repair it to the best of my ability. I got it to about 85% back to what it once was, I informed the service advisor so that she could take a look.
Later that day she thanked me and told me it looked so good she didnt even tell the customer. I went straight to my manager, and then to the service manager. I was in disgust that they had no remorse with damaging a families brand new vehicle and then lying to them about it
I worked at a car dealership where they do a presentation for you when you take delivery of the car. If it had scratches on it, they’d dim the lights in the room to camouflage the defects on the car. Don’t take delivery on a car unless you see it in broad daylight first.

My job is pretty tame. Mostly swapping out expiration date stickers so the product lasts longer and forging temperature charts. I went two years with a broken thermometer and nobody cared as long as the numbers were filled in. The company cares about your money, not your health.
I was ordered to use automotive cleaner on deli surfaces because it was a vinyl cleaner and we had vinyl surfaces and cutting boards. I said no. Manager threatened to write me up. I went on break and never went back. It was a shittily paid job but i wouldnt risk someone getting sick just so the owners could save a buck and further fill their pockets
Trash company had me pick up an entire recycling route every week with cans in a pickup truck and then meet up with a garbage truck and dump them all into the trash because they were short a recycling truck...
The “I don’t cut black people hair” thing is a real excuse. There are people who specialize in cutting straight hair and ones who do curly hair. She just worded it wrong.
It isn't even an excuse. I have blackhair. I don't want someone inexperiënced with this type of hair, cut it or touch it. It may look tough but mine is very sensitive.
I had to go through every hair salon in my hometown to find a place that was able to cut it. Most straight up said, that they couldn't cut it due to a lack of training. Which is true there is a school in my town for hairdressers. Blackhair is a seperate course after graduation.
This was years back before the mass immigration towards western Europe. Nowadays there are multiple places that cut black hair with people who know their stuff. And if they are overly confident you should not trust them with your hair. Learned that the hard way.
Yeah, they probably should've said something along the lines of "I'm sorry but I don't really have experience cutting or handling coarse hair. I don't want to mess it up for you." This is valid since people have different types of hair that require different types of treatment and methods of handling.
That first one hit me like a BUS.
As far as I know, I was never actually ASKED to do this, but it did happen. When I worked at the shelter if someone surrendered their pet (usually a cat) that they had basically the animal's entire life, sometimes the animal is just unable to adapt. Under one manager (maybe even the one before her, idk, I only know about the 2 managers I had and the temporary ones that were in between them) these animals were considered "too feral" and euthanized. Well, there were times that the family changed their mind or just wanted to check up on their former pet. So they would call and ask about them. The manager would tell them that the animal was either adopted or in foster care, knowing full well what actually happened. Well, one person found out the truth and kicked up a HUGE stink. As both a pet partner and a worker of the shelter I can see both sides. The animals were NOT given time to settle, just euthanized because they weren't friendly and sociable within a few days. They were 2 cats nearing 10 years old that had lived with the family for almost their entire lives. On the other hand, while that lie should NEVER have been told, when pets are surrendered, all owner rights are signed over before the animals are taken. So the former owner had a right to be upset about being lied to, but not about what had happened, though it was crappy to do that to the poor cats. If you ever have to surrender your pets to a shelter or rescue, please remember to read everything you have to sign VERY carefully.
Sorry to say it, but if they cared so much abt their pet then why’d they abandon them in the first placr.. terrible situation for those poor animals tho :(
@@robijuli236 I forget what that specific reason was, but usually people are forced to surrender pets when they go through a major life change- usually one that's negative such as loosing a job- when people have to down size their lives, their pets and with "nonessentials" are obviously the first things to go. People do try to hold onto their pets for as long as they can and only give them up as a very last resort. However, if they are forced to move into a home that won't allow pets, then they really have no choice in the matter. It's extremely sad, but needed. Better to give an animal up willingly and be able to say good bye than to have them ripped away from you, traumatizing everyone involved, especially if there are young children who don't understand the situation and have already gone through a number of changes to begin with. If the only option is to give your pet up, I personally would exhaust all other avenues before giving to a shelter or rescue. Having worked at one, I can tell you it's extremely stressful for the animal as well as the staff. Also, there are very, very few true no kill shelters and rescues, most just send animals to other shelters that will euthanize them.
@@vocodabaddest yeah, it wasn't fun. The worst part was someone I knew from school was the daughter and she saw me there the day they surrendered the cats. Since I was a "bottom of the totem pole" level worker and had personally asked to jot be involved with euthanizations, I have no idea when the cats were put to sleep. Even if I did know, I had no say. Yet, this girl became very cold and nasty to me after. I understand her feelings, but she didn't even ask me if I know anything about it, I just over6her in the lunch line the following week telling a friend I was "one of the people who killed her cats." It made me mad, especially after I asked and the manager was so nonchalant about it. She wasn't the warm and fuzzy type, which is kind of understandable in her position but she only ever saw things from her perspective, never even tried to understand others or even the animals she was supposed to make sure were cared for. Again, I understand that, but in that line of work you still need some level of compassion and empathy for both the people and the animals.
@@alexismyers6053 yeh um you could have always told them that this isnt the right place or something you are Still a terrible person in my mind as you did nothing to stop it
This is why I despise people who surrender their pet for an unjustified reason. I know there are plenty of valid reasons, but there are far too many people who just abandon them cuz they simply don't feel like caring for their pet anymore after it gets old and needs veterinary care. It disgusts me
Those bastards made me... Work!!!!
Im still ashamed
21:59 i think i live right behind this donut shop, i just noticed a few months ago that they had carved a new doorway in the brick wall to the building next to it, thats so crazy, this is in Owasso, Ok btw
My brand new owner/boss asked if I could get him some meth. Like 500 bucks. Lol I was in a bad place at the time and turns out I could.
I was told I had to work an hour longer than everyone else on a Sunday & not get paid for it.
Sell a camper to someone whose vehicle couldn’t tow it... like not even close to capable. It wasn’t me, but a coworker. He sold a 28’ camper that weighed close to 7500lbs to a couple with a Chevy Equinox 4 cylinder. Even if it had the V6 the camper was beyond capacity. They were first timers who knew nothing, so they were a good mark. My GM was fine with it. When the customer inevitably came back complaining my employer did nothing. I won’t tell you the name of the place, but you can buy a Boat & RV there, if you know what I mean
Also had a coworker, while dealing with a customer who had strict space limitations at his campsite, purposely walked back two paces thereby deceiving the man into buying it. Why did my coworker do it? It was a leftover with a large bonus on it and he wanted that money and would do anything he had to get it. Again, my GM didn’t care
The company had close to a 100% attrition rate within six months
“I won’t tell you the name of the place, but you can buy a boat and Rv there, if you know what I mean.” Do you mean that you work for an unnamed Boat and Rv Sale Service? Seems pretty easy to know what you mean lol.
Got basicily asked to pressure sell stuff to customers so glad that git got sacked.
The one about the Paris attack wasn't unethical. Triage is what you do when you don't have enough personnel in a mass casualty incident.
Yeah. That's a normal procedure they teach you about when you become am EMT. It's part of your job to choose who you expect can live.
Found a foot in a shoe, under the pedals, in a car crash, in a junkyard. I worked there and went to test the engine and found the shoe and foot. Boss told me to just “throw it in the dumpster and keep going”. I refused and it became an ordeal. Police eventually came and “claimed” the foot. No idea what happened to it after that.
sometimes the regular price would be lower than the senior price for the day and we were told to still give old people the “senior discount” even if it cost more
Had my coach tell me to drive a forklift to open a trailer that was stuck, I'm not trained in anyway and the store manger walks in me doing do. Everyone cheered me on as I messed up time after time lol
I worked in a call center, for an insurance company. Some go got to old, so they raisced his car insurance to something like eight thouasand dollars. I get this call, and the guy begging me to do something. If he doesn't have car insurance, it's the end of his life. He lives miles from everywhere, and can't walk that far. He tell me, he has been with this company since he fought in the Korean war, and still paid his insurance, while fighting in Korea. I'm away from my desk for four month's of the year, and I have keystroke recorder, so when everyone use my computer, I get their password.I also, put a Keystroke recorder, on my supervisor's compurter, an few other key people. If you're in business, it's a great business tip. Use a physical keystroke recorder, not software. So, I'm feeling horrible about this old guy, I tell him I'll fix his problem. So, that night, while I was working late, I made a new accout for the old guy, and changed his age, and few other things, so it would work. I called the old guy everyday, unitl the letter came in the mail, and all was good. Working late, isn't the end of the world. I was paid crap, and had to live with other people in small apartment. I would rush home, take shower, and come back. Work a bit, and actually get things done. Then I would go buy pizza, and/or something to drink. The internet was T something, so playing game was blindlying fast. There was girl, who ran her personal business at night, using the high speed internet, and the company records. She said, she wanted to quit her day job, but need the great internet, and companies resources to run her business. She would play music, and dance while working. She tried to get me to dance. She said, My boyfriend doesn't dance either." Once, she begged me to dance, and had her boyfriend watch on his phone. He laughed, and said, "Sucker" There a whole world at work, after people leave for the day.
Bless you for helping the older guy. You have a good soul Kiki ♥️
I was working security at a lot with several businesses. One night a guy parked his car in the alley trying to hide it and walked next door to a hotel. I let my supervisor know about the suspicious activity and he tried to get me to search the car.
I'm security, not police. I have no right or authority to do that. This is a company that liked to throw employees under the bus. I told our captain and I never heard from that supervisor again
I don't normally comment on these, but that credit card one!!!!
I just wanted to be a cashier but they usher you into this whole new job position you're not ready for and make you become a sales person
They threaten you too if you don't hit a quota
It bothered me cause that wasn't the job I was hired to do!
Hey updoot i love your videos thank you for it
Thanks

15:19 sounds like the plot of a wacky sitcom episode.
The doctor in the ICU one... it sounds like a very physically, mentally, and emotionally exhausting job... but as someone who knows nothing about medicine, I think I would want people working to save me until my very last breath.
Two and a half weeks after my wife broke her shoulder, went into diabetic decline, and was on ICU Life support, and was in a medically induced coma. She had already had her colon removed, was in kidney failure. Before pulling the plug, I asked them to bring her out of the coma. She had all meds causing the coma stopped and came to, without the ability to speak so we used the blinking eyes you see on TV. I knew before I asked her that she did not want to live in a degraded state, so when I asked if she wanted to live like she was she blinked, "No." She did the same for the Nurse and then the doctor. I pulled the plug the next morning when she was as medicated with pain killers as possible. Instead of just the usual "One is for Yes, Two is for No" I also added, "Three for I Love You." We were able to tell each other we loved each other one last time.
@@thenoeticskeptic5819 I'm sorry to hear of your loss and I'm glad you wife was able to communicate her own wishes and have those wishes respected. In my family's own situation, doctor's were very pessimistic about my parent's ability to recover after a major stroke, to the point that they weren't even concerned about any future strokes (with he thought that the damage was done and nothing would be recovered anyway). My parent has far exceeded any of their expectations. This is not to say that pushing forward is always the right decision, but I think the opinion for when to let go should come from the patient or the family/friends who know the wishes of the patient. Sometimes doctors seem deservedly pessimistic and its probably not good for them to get too hopeful too often. Just my opinion, but I'm going to now make it very clear to my family that I will be very put out if anyone is hasty about deciding to cut my care in an emergency!

It's a slight paraphrase of his demand so as to sanitize it a bit for public consumption, but yeah. There's a reason I left that company
10:15 Security cam footage on private property is the property of the owner and there's no obligation to preserve it for law enforcement. Nothing legally wrong was done in this situation.

I was asked to *"talk dirty in my sexy voice"* to Creditors so they would put off collecting debts. 🤮
A boss asked me to privately record a conversation with one of the other employees which in my state is completely illegal. I told her that it was a crime and I quit the next day.
To falsify the scan of my ID that my employer should've had. I remember we scanned it when I was first hired. He got audited suddenly by the IRS and asked me to photoshop a scan our something. It's not my fault he lost the file, and I refused to break the law for him.
Back before the internet and interstate record keeping, I was asked to switch up records for two truckers that were about to be arrested for vehicular manslaughter for running over a little old woman’s vehicle while high off their asses on the job. I swapped the information, then promptly quit and swapped it back. For good measure, I also nuked all their DOT records so they’d get trouble when audited. They got shut down weeks after I quit...good riddance.

Hmmmm...
RE: The Doctors and Medical Staff that have to keep someone alive at any expense because of family. I really feel for them. Those are the same people that may or may not put an animal down. Most likely let a beloved pet suffer too. Cover your ass before you get sick people.
To sign and notary stamp a bunch of blank pleading papers to be used as the last page of affidavits. Asked to notarize a partnership with only one partner present.
I had a woman who asked me to get rid of a will when I was working for a funeral home.
12:00 I once saw a barbershop that only does black people hair.
Is such a thing really racist? I mean, black people and white people have so different kinds of hair that I can understand why someone would see themself able to do one but not the other.
It definitely is just as racist as a white person refusing to cut a black person's hair. Once you make it about colour regardless of who you are it's racism.
Was going to comment about this, I live in Ireland and have a few friends from Nigeria who recently explained to me it's hard to get a haircut in Ireland because their hair is different and a lot of barbers don't have the right equipment or the knowledge/experience to cut properly - that there are dedicated barbers for black peoples hair - never even crossed my mind that this was a thing before they told me about it
I wondered into a barber shop that had only cut black people hair. (I am white) I didn't think a thing about it..... it was a disaster gor both of us. Yes there is a difference and gas nothing to docwith race. Now the lady in the story could have explained that or She was just a racist.
Why is it that HR is supposed to be someones saving grace, but every story I hear where HR is contacted, they straight up dont give a fuck. Like, what?
"Small business owners are the backbone of the country" ... yeah, umm, well .. I have worked for a few of those and every single one of them was crooked in some way. Last job, bosses (owners of the business) all have gas cards, VP fills up his boat on the weekend, bill comes in, I am wondering why it's so high .. ahhh yes, the how many hundreds of dollars to fill the boat? Cash sales, under the table .. no problem. Invoices to their friends for work done at the cottage, billed through the company .. sure, go ahead.
Roll ice cream through sewage water, still served it, during COVID, the store should be shut down honestly

My girlfriend and i worked at the same resturaunt and our boss had come in and asked her to come with her to clean the bathroom. The womens bathroom. Apparently some chick had shit massively on the floor. She was pissed
How is selling someone alcohol with no ID unethical? The dude said himself he called his “training manager over” so he was new and the guy that was buying said he was a regular. So the manager obviously knew him. There’s 3 liquor stores I can walk into right now without an ID and walk out with booze because they already know me.
Because if the company gets caught doing that. Their will be legal trouble.
@@selenalulamoon1167 how are they going to get in trouble if the manager already knows the dude is 21 because he’s a regular?
@@gabriellundes7062 because they could randomly have a cop who actually follows the rules see it happen. Plus he could be buying for minors. They have to check so they wont get sued by the state
@@selenalulamoon1167 if it was an undercover cop then the manager obviously wouldn’t know him as a regular then. And the buying for minors thing makes no sense. You think the store clerk is going to remember the details of an ID of everyone that comes in to buy a beer? They have cameras for that. Selling alcohol without checking ID is NOt illegal. Selling alcohol to a minor or without a license is. So the seller is the one that has to make sure they person is 21 or they can lose their selling license and fines. In this case the manager already knew the customer as a regular.
@@gabriellundes7062no a cop could see them selling without iding and it is illegal to not id someone who's buying alchohol.
That thumbnail lol
Boink trophy wives on the behest of the owner of the company.
To the person who doesn't "cut black people hair."
I don't blame you. That hair isn't like most other types of hair, unfortunately.
There’s no such thing as ethical consumption in capitalism.
If putting new 3/6 hour time stamps on apple pies at mcds is the worst thing you had to do at mcds then you had it made. That's nothing.
Dipping old fries in oil instead of making a fresh batch, even when someone clearly exclaims they want fresh fries.
18:53 your entire job is unethical, of course you wouldn't know ethics if it hit you with a hammer dipped in hot sauce
READ ENTIRELY!!
If an ID is shredded and taped it’s not legal. You can and should refuse the sale of alcohol.
I am also a cashier, and have denied people alcohol because they didn’t have their ID. I have also denied the sale of alcohol because of belligerence. Clearly you started drinking already, and probably drove drunk to get here. No you won’t be getting any alcohol.
If you tell your other people to go away because they don’t have their ID, and are clearly under the age of 40, I can and I WILL deny you alcohol. They could be a minor and that is something that an employee could be fired for. No bribes will be accepted. Also..
*IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT COUNTRY YOU’RE FROM. THE US DRINKING AGE IS 21. No you cannot go by European or Chinese rules of drinking here in the US. And no. You may not use your uncles military ID to buy alcohol for you and your underage friends.*
I’ve literally had all of these happen, but not all at once.
The consequences and chain of events?
1. Police get called to scene where drinking is happening.
2. EVERYONE gets ID’d. Underage people found!!
3. “Where did you buy the alcohol from?”
•Store Name here•
“Can I see the receipt?”
•Receipt given•
4. •At store• Police talks to store manager about alcohol purchase at xx:xx time.
5. Cameras reviewed.
6. Employee called into AP office. “Did you sell alcohol without checking ID?” “I might have..” “Are you aware that the person/people you sold to were underage?” “No they all looked about 22 so I didn’t ID.” “Well.. you didn’t ID and some people died tonight because of the alcohol you sold. We have to let you go.” “But there was a 40 year old woman and she showed hers” “But the others didn’t..” “No.” “Exactly. Doesn’t matter. •EVERYONE• gets ID’d to prevent this. Now we have legal stuff to take care of. You have to go. Give me your badge.” •Employee walks out•
7. “Now we have legal stuff. You (the CSM) allowed this, you were right there. You’re fired too.”
8. Because of legal things, store loses liquor license. All alcohol removed from the store. Store is fined Xk dollars.
9. •40 year old wants a case of beer• “why don’t you have any alcohol in the store?” “I don’t know. Just came in today and saw it was all gone.” “This is ridiculous. How DARE you have the AUDACITY not to have alcohol when I DEMAND it! I’m having a party and you just RUINED it!! My mother with cancer and grandma who’s 90 are coming over and they like to drink too.. you’re a terrible employee and I’ll have your job for this! Where is your manager!!
*Employee inwardly* Shouldn’t you mom and grandmother be avoiding alcohol?? It could kill them!!
“Yeah, sure. Hold on a sec.” Manager comes over, employee leading. “What’s the problem? “My •Problem• is that this employee is refusing to sell me alcohol. There’s none on the shelves and she’s not getting me any!! She’s ruining my party!” “Well ma’am, previously in the week we had an employee sell alcohol to some underage people, and due to the legality of it we lost our liquor license. You’ll have to go elsewhere for that now.” “You worthless people can’t even do your jobs right. How does it feel being the cause of making this store lose their alcohol and ruin my party!”
More angry customers because no alcohol.
More disgruntled officers over angry customers because no alcohol.
A couple funerals because underage drinking and driving.
Families and friends split because of choices made that night.
Divorces, estates, lawyers are having generally a high traffic day.
Two people who now won’t be hired anywhere else because of this on their track record, except at Mc Donald’s where people tell them every day that they should kill themselves for being fast food workers.
Cashiers at store have to pick up the slack, longer lines, and less help, and only one front end manager since the other one was fired.
•If you’re going out at all, bring your ID. Always. Be prepared to show it when purchasing alcohol ALWAYS. Unless you’re CLEARLY over the age of 40, then you don’t have to.. but you should. Because what if you get pulled over by a cop on the way home? And without your ID •Gasp• Do NOT make that mistake.
Alcohol is sometimes a flash moment idea. Don’t be a Karen and make their day worse because you can’t plan ahead for things. Always. Carry. Your. ID!
Calm down Karen - we get the idea 🙄
Ah yes, Capitalism
Ummmm.... type 3 hair is very different and if you don’t know what you are doing it can be disastrous ... you no all of those videos of girls trying to do they own bangs and they come out looking really dumb and short ... it’s kinda like that ... however of course you were there in the interaction and I’m sure you had a better understanding of whether or not it was meant to be racist or not... but my mom has been a stylist for 20+ years so I know a lot of random facts about hair ... and yeah ... “black people hair” is majority of the time type 3... honestly it would be worst to pretend you know what you are doing to try to be inclusive and totally botch up the ladies hair ... that being said she should take a class for it so that she is comfortable enough to do all types of hair

@The Spider Jokes on you i have bananas on hand
I am old enough that being carded is merely a formality. Staying with a friend a few years ago, we went through the line at Safeway and had an adult beverage bottle in the mess. They automatically card, and friend was paying she showed hers. I took mine out and showed it too. Clerk thanked me as some get upset if he cards everyone (as we were adults and not adult with children aka general shopping). At a Walmart, I had picked up a bottle and went through self checkout, of course it will blink up. So I go to the main checker overview position and he is within 10 years older than me. I am polite and pull the card and we are civilly going through the motions, and a woman half our age starts having a screamfit because the six she has with her groceries blinks up. She is clearly over drinking age and this is taking up too much of her precious time. I turn and address her, and tell her IT'S THE LAW they card EVERYONE. Just get the card out and get it over with. If you are OVER 21, consider it a compliment. You're wasting more time screaming about it than just DOING it. Now shut up, you are next. Then I turn back to the guy and finish my transaction in the same polite vein we had going. He also whispered thank you for shutting that woman up, he couldn't say that stuff on the job but I could... I'm also used to having to show ID to buy cans of spraypaint, and cheap tobacco to kill slugs with. It's the law, just do it. Now some want to scan your ID and you can refuse that, I always refuse. I will show it but that's it.

UwU
show me feet
They wanted me to actually do the work they hired me to do!!!!! Bunch of bs
I'm sorry but no one can "make" you do anything and I hate when people say that when they are telling a story and they do something stupid like get in a strangers car (duress is different then doing something willingly) just say you did a stupid thing and put yourself in potential danger
