@@soapghostroach core hours is actually a thing with flexible working hours - its the time where you essentially have to start at the latest and can leave at the earliest, for most companies that will be about 0900-1500 where you can pick when you want to start before or after in a given time frame as long as you fulfill hours worked requirements (i.e. 0600-1800). Have never heard it being used with distance working/home office though. There usually is one or two days a week where employees are required to come in, so they dont "lose touch" with all their coworkers and also administrative stuff like paperwork, boss seeing your face again, knowing whats new with the company itself etc., but certain hours every day smells like bullcrap they made up.
Imagine, one week before Christmas, a client for a truck and fuel company is having a meeting. The employee leaves and a completely separate man enters, one of the truckers, having no business inside that part of the facility. He walks up to the female, married client and asks her to sleep with him and offers her money to do so after being rejected the first 4 times. The man was immediately fired. I wonder what he told his own wife and kids onto why he got fired.
Honestly I think most car sales places would take him with open arms. He closed a sale on a very expensive car and even risked jail to do it. As long as that didnt have any repercussions for the store, that should go on his resume.
@@2MeterLP thing is, most places dont view it like that. I did something similar, and I didnt know there was a tracking device on the truck. Needless to say, I got a right telling off from my boss. And to be fair, even tho there was no traffic and the roads were pretty clear, it was still kind of a stupid thing to do🤷🏾♂️
5:10 "You got ripped off by our man? There's nothing we can do!" There are people who can, though. Call your CC company and reverse the charge. Call the cops on them. Call the news about it.
KaeYoss to be entirely fair, there’s not a whole lot of news outlets who would be tearing to scoop the story of some pizza delivery guy stealing 40 bucks.
Exactly. You can dispute a charge in seconds nowadays after it posts. And it's really freaking easy to have evidence in your favor. Why that person didn't take the 5 minutes to call and reverse the charge is beyond me.
My job apparently had an employee who was regular taking a case of beer without paying. He would do this often, usually several cases at a time, but never so much so that the amount that was taken would get him caught. The reason he finally got caught was because one time the back camera that was by his truck, the one he normally moved so it couldn’t see him, wasn’t moved enough and could clearly seem him taking them. The called him and told him that he was fired. Then he wanted to ask when he could come in to get it final pay, and they told him he wasn’t going to get one. His final pay went towards the stolen beer. Also to clarify, they were pretty sure it was him, as they began to realize, but they couldn’t prove anything until he forgot to move the camera enough
It's so damn weird to me that in the US there is ZERO security for credit cards. Having tips HANDWRITTEN ON A SLIP OF PAPER then expecting employees (or for that matter businesses) not to steal is hilariously foolish. For US people: in my home of Canada, they bring a card machine to your table and you add the tip to the bill on the machine itself before you enter your PIN and have the transaction approved (or not approved I suppose). The tip is then *printed* on both your and the business's receipt.
Not the manager. A coworker. This guy just got his driver license back. (Lost it from DUI) So at lunch he asked a coworker to borrow his car to head to the store. He let him. Turns out it was to buy some alcohol and got drunk at work. He was fired and gone before the hour was up.
At a video game company I worked at, the new programmer had an affair with the fiancee of the owner, posted images on facebook, and was amazed when it mattered so much to the owner that he (the programmer) got fired.
3.50 had been missing from the register. It was at that moment I realized that this cashier of mine was a couple dozen feet tall and I said now God damnit lochness monster you ain't getting my 3.50.
Here's something I'm surprised a co-worker didn't get fired for: Dude told a customer... an underage customer... to strip for him... while on the job. Imagine going to a Halloween haunted house and end up with someone dressed as a hobo yelling at you to strip for him because you didn't give him change. Oh yeah, he also panhandled because his character was a hobo. Dude took actual money from customers, which was a huge no-no. The fact that he didn't get fired shocked me.
When I worked in retail one of the managers had to fire two workers because they got into a messy fight. They apparently had a long history of not liking each other and one night they got into a heated argument around closing time. I was friendly with both. One of them was a big sassy dude and another was a small young woman. I don’t know who was the aggressor but apparently the big dude slammed the young womans head into one of the register several times and had to be held back by one of the assistant managers (who just happened to be a big buff dude and was having a hard time holding him back.) He wasn’t arrested and there were plenty of witnesses so I assumed he wasn’t the aggressor. I hated retail (especially working in such a ghetto area) but few people made my time enjoyable. I definitely miss him and still remember the last thing he said to me: “I don’t give a fuck, man or woman. I’m bi, I fight both ways.” Laweeed
Jesus christ. I mean, i believe in equality but bro, several times? If she's assaulting you just put her in a damn hold or something, or just go get someone. Don't fall for the trap and start swinging just because she threw the first punch. Be the bigger person.
@@Alino-I agree. I’m all for equal rights equal fights. But he could’ve just put her in a chokehold or something. Not slam her head repeatedly into the cash register! What a lunatic.
I'm the graphics designer in an international TV enterprise (for latin america and the spanish talking audience living in the US, with some History Channel shows like American Pickers, Ancient Aliens, etc), and 90% of everything I do is done in After Effects. They were looking for another designer for the night shift, and finally they hired one that just graduated from college. They asked me to train her a little bit and get her know how things are done here. After a little introduction, she had to take a little test about how well she use the program. Then this happens She: Um..... why is this in english? Me:....what? She: I don't know english, can you please change the language in this computer? Me: Um... No I can't (we need administrator allowance to change the settings). You don't even know the basics? And besides, it's literally the same as the spanish version. She: Yes but I like to know what I'm using. Me:....you're using "Position"....It's obviously "Posición" She: yeah, but I don't like it, I want this in spanish. Me:....K, brb. I go to my supervisor and tell him that she doesn't know fucking english. And he told me that she said she KNEW ENGLISH but she lied. After that, I went to her again and said "Look, the supervisor needs to talk to you". And that was the last time I saw her. Bitch, when you work in an INTERNATIONAL enterprise, you HAVE TO KNOW at least the basics of english, or you're pretty much fucked, also that she lied... I don't know in which college she graduated because in almost every graphics design college, they teach english classes. For fucks sake, man.
And this is why I generally don't put down that I know Spanish. I'm far from fluent. I know enough to have a short conversation but ask me how to do taxes and I'll stare at you as my brain blue screens
The Phil story, with my company that wouldn't be a problem in the slightest. We all started working remotely and it worked out both so well for the company AND for us they never went back to being in-office. We've had people move all over that still work for us. One lady even moved to Europe!
@@grimm-oire he still violated company policy. he and everyone else were supposed to come in for core hours every week, he didnt. so they had no choice but to fire him
Tbh, in most situations when I'm annoyed at something, a simple 'sorry' and a promise of compensation is enough for me to forgive the other person. Like, for example, if someone knowingly ate my lunch, I'd get pretty annoyed and insist on them buying it back, but if they admitted to it being a mistake and offered to buy it back, I'd forgive them right away, and I'd they were particularly sorry, I might even give them money to buy the lunch back, just sending them to do it.
9:10 I work at a Simon Malls chain mall. They do have “employee parking” which is a blue line that basically outlines the perimeter of the parking lot around the entire mall. It’s not strictly for employees because customers park there all the time. We don’t have parking passes that prove we’re employees. The mall constantly puts up signs saying “customers come first, employees must park in the blue line or the will be towed at your expense.” Needless to say, that mall can suck my left nut because they’ve never towed me in the 6 years I’ve worked there for not parking in the blue line. Just the mall manager having one of her many power trips.
The first guy who took a bite out of the whining customers BLT is actually a fucking legend. That's some shit you do when you're fed tf up with food service. Speaking from experience.
Not me but a former colleague, grocery store manager had a stock person who had his identical twin brother work for him a shift, we didn't notice but then he told us. LOL
Company requires all accidents of company vehicles to be followed up with a drug and alcohol test. Co-worker, lab assistant, drives company vehicle into the back end of another vehicle at high speed totaling the vehicle. Co-worker gets tested. Yup, positive for pot. Manager says co-worker can no longer use company vehicle. Co-worker goes ballistic that he should not be penalized for his pot use since it's legal in our state now (OR). Manager is taking in co-worker's behavior over this simple thing about not being able to use the company vehicle, and says he will take some time to consider my co-worker's complaints. Lab manager is requested by manager to pull all of co-worker's driving locations in conjunction with drop-off and pick-up points for samples for the past three months of his employment. Manager brings co-worker back in for meeting. Goes over the points that do not line up with work-related stops. Co-worker says he used the company vehicle for grocery shopping, fishing, and drove the company vehicle home. All of those are red-flags of misuse. Manager decides to let my co-worker go because of his drug use, misuse of company vehicle. Co-worker goes ballistic again on Lab Manager because Lab Manager is just sitting there listening and watching this clown show he's putting on. Co-worker storms out shouting profanities and slams front door. TL:DR, co-worker lost his job because he couldn't lose company ride to work. Priorities.
Restaurants and retail 90%. I've worked as a cook for about 5 years. Current restaurant been at for 2 years. 5 cooks have come and gone, not that much... Feels like it's been about the same crew for 2 years. But we've gone through like 20 dishwashers, like 6 of them lasted for 1-3 days (and we pay 2 dollars above minimum and it's not a very busy restaurant). And theres been about 40 different front of house employees. The turnover for this industry is nuts.
@@Hadgerz look a lot of shit goes down at restaurants all over the world I know. But nothing happened to these ppl. They didn't have something bad happen by the chef or something. The just walk in on an average busy day, work for 3 hours, we make em a bomb meal whatever they want, they go on break. And then just never come back. No call no word. Ppl suck, employees included. I'm just a cook but even I feel bad for the awesome sous chef who jumps in the dishpit and stays late to do all the other work. Like at least stick out a shift. And let em know at the end of the day u can't do it.
The funniest shit I've seen yet though was like 3 months into my first cook job ever. This dishwasher at the end of the shift says he can't do it anymore and he's putting in his resignation. And the head chef is like "look man, it's been a long very busy night, they're not all like this u know. Take the night think about it, uve got a kid u gotta support, have u figured another job out? if u still want to leave come morning then sure." And the dishwasher is like "nah I just can't do it anymore it's too stressful" and the Chef fuckin now fuming yells "stressful? Ur a fucking dishwasher what do u mean stressful? GTFO of here!"
I used to work at a takeaway and we had a driver get fired for claiming to be “stuck in traffic once”. Turns out he was parked like 3 minutes down the road in his car playing games on his phone when a supervisor drove past them on the way back from the shop and recognised the number plate on the aforementioned delivery drivers car. Needless to say, the driver was phoned up, asked to come back to the store, get cashed up and not to come back to the store.
I used to work at a rental car location. Every so often, about once a month, we'd have to go out to the lot where we stored the wrecked cars. It was locked & nice not to have to deal with customers for awhile. One driver was a weed head. He shows up asking for the keys to the lot with no real reason to go there; then, got mad when we wouldn't give them to him. Another driver said as they were driving, he pulls out some weed & starts rolling a joint & he had to say, "Put that away!"
I was told I had to quit drinking at work. With a lot of motivation and willpower, I was able to quit, and I've never felt better. Now I just drink at home
When i was getting a job at the YMCA summer camp (I was 16) the hiring manager told us on orientation day about an employee who called a kids parent and told them that he thinks their kid has autism due to the way the kid was supposedly acting. He was fired on the spot
6:56 In Brazil, there was a automotive brand named "Gurgel". During the tests of the BR-800, a compact car with a 800cc 2 cylinder engine, the test driver managed to get a ticket going 120 Km/h. Instead of firing the guy, the owner of the company threw a party and hung the ticket in his office
One of our guys once put diesel in our gas powered van because it was cheaper and he "wanted to save the company money" Fair enough, but it destroyed the engine and ended up costing a lot of money and his job
Not me, but the previous manager for the bakery I now manage once fired a gal for slamming an industrial oven door (around 380-450 degrees celsius) because it was blocking her path. Problem is, the baker was removing racks from the oven and barely was able to escape the swinging door. She was fired on the spot and she insisted it was the baker's fault. Thing is, the doors are windowed, all she had to do was pay attention and she would have seen him.
Not a manager, but at my last job at the casino... While I working as a custodian, on a Tuesday night in 2019 right before Independence Day, there's these two coworkers of mine (individual contractors who weren't actual company employees like us) who would frequently call in work. On the day they said they supposedly "can't make it", I was sweeping the gaming floor and wiping down machines when lo and behold, those same women came in. They both used the bathroom, but one of them told me not to tell anyone they were here even though all of my other coworkers saw them---plus, they were all on surveillance camera, so even if the supervisor asked me, I wouldn't get away with lying about it. It was only 90 minutes left until the end of my shift and my radio went off. One of my other coworkers called the supervisor to meet him elsewhere on the floor. I wasn't sure what it was until Friday when he told me those two were immediately fired right on the spot the next day, though Wednesdays and Thursdays were my work weekends. So on Wednesday, when they finally showed up for work, I heard the supervisor simply told them to just go home and not come back. Fast forward almost two weeks later... both of them returned as company workers. One is on graveyard shift as a custodian while the other is a line cook on certain days and swing schedules. Long story short: They got fired from their contractor jobs but suddenly came back despite being told not to come back.
Isn't it amazing how little empathy these thugs have for their employees? It's all about the HR reaction and how much money to settle, not, oh shit we failed to protect our employee or oh shit our employee was fucking tortured.
At the restaurant I worked at, one of the servers would pocket the entire bill if the customers paid in cash. He would then use one of his other tables who paid with a credit card and swipe the card for that table and the table who paid with cash so the computer showed that every table had been cashed out. Once credit card users started calling in saying they had been charged twice, management figured out what he was doing and fired him. No criminal actions were taken.
Basically, it's completely unnecessary to fire the one employee who didn't show up for work if there's already a home office arrangement in place, you can send them to work from home for the entire time and it doesn't matter where they live
There was a time when I was so broke, I only ate homebrought Muesly with milk I brought myself at work. Can't even store my milk at the fridge at work because bastard food thieves drank all my milk. I luckily had a load of milk at home, so I thought about prepping one of the milk cartons with a shit load of salt, to at least ruin the coffee of whatever food thief is at work.
Once had two girls get into a verbal altercation over a damn grilled cheese that escalated into them going to the parking lot and one girl reaching into the back seat of her car and coming out with a shovel handle and started swinging.
When I worked as a mall security officer one of our duties was to help people that had locked their keys in the car. (We had professional kits and off duty police officers were there often.) One day there was a particularly stubborn lock that none of us could open for an employee of the mall and since several of us including the officers and supervisors had tried and failed, she asked if we could just break the window for her. Well do to company policy and insurance we could not but we told her if she wanted to break the window that she could. The not very bright guard then offered her the fire extinguisher from the back of the security vehicle to use to break the window. After lightly tapping the window a couple of times the girl started crying and the guard that would soon be fired picked up the extinguisher and with supervisors and police officers telling him not to do it and that he would lose his job if he did, puts the extinguisher right through the window. Fired immediately.
3:50 Had this problem at work a few times, I put my name on anything I bring in or saving if reps come in and bring food. Never lost my marbles, was pissed off though
we had a guy about 10 years back that used to take the company camcorder and record the secretaries in the bathroom from a hole in the attic. He also gave the camcorder to my boss to use on a job site without deleting the footage.
Yeah. Europeans are pretty soft skinned. Really scared of some random horny guy who wanted pics of a hot chick and went about getting them a really dumb way. No wonder prisons are so bloated and overfull of trash cases that should just be a fine and a stern talking to.
Bunnies Kitties we don’t like insubordination. Allow small crimes to happen and they will evolve into bigger crimes. Especially for developing children and teens
Alas was not there to see it myself, but at a McDonalds I once worked at, a junior manager was fired because, pissed off for some reason on a shift, he hurled a bag of sugar at one of order monitors. I don't mean a sugar packet for your coffee, I mean the several pound bag of sugar you'd get when buying groceries. He threw one at a monitor. Needless to say, that was his last shift.
The waiter that added a five dollar tip to everyone at a table? That is called a "gratuity charge," if customers don't tip. Party of five leaving a $0.15 tip each? Service gratuity gets added to the *Bill* not the tip, but the gratuity goes to the server, that is if the owner knows the law and implements it. The place I worked had a mandatory gratuity charge for groups over five people(small building) that was $25.00(mandatory if the server wanted to add it that is.) Plenty of people get pissed until I show them the total tip of $4.50 they left on a table that, before they split the bill, payed for over $400 worth of food/service. After I showed them the math politely, and people realize the mistake they usually would tip again just for the rudeness.
I didn't fire this guy because I knew he would quit soon anyway. I worked in fast food and we had a manager who was stealing right and left. They caught him and removed him from the store without even letting him collect his personal belongings. It was kind of funny because one of the things he left behind was a comic book from the library, way overdue. I returned it. A few years later a kid in his early 20's applies for a job and he has the same (very unusual) last name, so I asked him, "Are you So-and-so's son?" "Yeah, but I don't even talk to my dad." He obviously knew why we had fired his father. Against my better judgement we hired him as a closer. His first night was working with me. This is the conversation we had around 11 PM: "Hey, man, is there anyway I could leave early? My girlfriend is pregnant and she has a doctor's appointment in half an hour. She could go by herself, but I really want to do this stuff with her, you know. I want to be a good dad. My dad was never a good dad, but I want to be a good dad." "So . . . your girlfriend has an OBGYN appointment at 11:30 at night?" "Yes." I just stared into his eyes waiting for him to realize what he had said. Nothing! "OK, you go ahead." He quit 2 days later.
They tried to tell me to park in employee parking, which I did, until my window got busted out and some stuff stolen. I told them that until they paid for the stolen items and the window replacement I was parking wherever the fuck I wanted, namely, where my car wouldn't get fucked up. Namely, the level security actually patrolled. Namely, the level all the customers parked on.
Stealing from the company or costumers is one of the very, very few things that can even very easily get you fired on the spot in germany where firing isn't easy in general and the clean process takes at least 3 months of full pay. Forging receipts is such a heavy and obviously intentional violation of trust that i have hard time imagining a valid defense. In the legal system that's probably even worse then regular stealing. So if that just get's you fired you are actually lucky. The forged receipts are also very solid evidence in court. So your best chances are just cooperating and hoping that none sues you.
I have a carpet cleaning business and I dropped off an employee to a job and helped him get set up, then left him to go to the bank, on my return an hour or so after I walked in to the room and saw he was finished, and done an excellent job, the very dirty carpet was now white, the machine was cleaned and emptied and all the cables were neatly wrapped up. The carpet looked beautiful but there was one problem, when we picked the machine up to load it into the van I found that he hadn’t cleaned under the machine and there was a perfect rectangle outline of the machine on the dirtiest part of the carpet. This was the last of almost daily instances of stupid stuff like this happening. Dopey Steve had to go.
My brother had to fire a guy because he kept taking water. They had free water for staff and different water to be sold. He kept taking the product water and never paid for it. My brother told him 3 times "hey, that's not the free water." But he never learned. On the 4the time he was caught doing it, my brother fired him for stealing.
Where I used to work Night shift there was this one girl every man wanted but she was happily married so was not intrested. One security guard got sacked because he followed her around with the camera and it always Co insides with his shifts
Co-worker worked in a convenient store at closing time for the first day on the job. Shown how to lock up the doors at night. Co-worker neglected to lock one of the double-doors in place before locking the doors together. Next day, co-worker walks in, fired on the spot, ex-co-worker walks out.
He was told he'd be fired if he didn't lock the door because the manager didn't want to get a call at midnight from the alarm. It was kind of funny to watch. The look on his face.
6:55 considering what I know of car salesmen, thats not "needless to say" at all. Dude close d a sale on a corvette the kid had doubts on, a lot of stores would have welcomed him back without a thought.
That lady who lost it because someone ate her bagel, it reminded me of that episode of Friends where Ross who blew his top because someone ate his sandwich at the museum.
I'm not a manager but... I work at racing stable for a well know strapper, (your only hints are his youngest brother has down syndrome and his youngest sister is champion jockey) anyways, my job is to clean out the boxes of poop, lay out fresh bedding for the horses, make sure their waters are clean and fresh. One day, we had two new girls come in and it was a muggy, rainy day and they were suppose to help me with the boxes, I only saw them both about once or twice before they completely disappeared on me. To give you an idea on how much there was to be done, there are at least 5 sets of boxes, each with varing numbers and different names; Inside: 18 boxes. Back: 6 boxes. Summer Yards: 12 boxes (at the time, additional ones being built). Taj: 12 boxes. Siberia: 3 boxes. This list exculdes the two 'bullrings', 'holding yards' and the triangle paddock. When the handlers take out horses to the paddocks or up top, we have to get the paddock horses done first and they don't wait for us to be finished with the boxes before putting them back in unless we're already standing in a box and are almost finished with it. Now it was wet, humid and more than once did my wheelbarrow tip over, I was rushing around to get as much as I could do since the two new girls vanished on me. I couldn't get everything done before my shift was over and ended up leaving a shit show (literally) for the afternoon staff. The next day I was working with familiar and dedicated faces, while over at Siberia, I was telling my co-worker about the day before and he told me what happened to the two girls. They both left early because one said her hands were cold and the other was complaining about blisters on her hands. My jaw nearly hit the floor, I thought out loud 'What useless bitches!!!' and my co-worker laughed. I mean, really!! You don't take up a job as a stable hand and not expect you hands to get roughed up!
I have a lot of these, but this one always just makes me chuckle, due to the sheer stupidity. I was a manager at a call center for a big cell phone company. I had a desk in the middle of a ‘pod’ which was basically just an area with 16 desks, all surrounding mine. Oftentimes we’d have open desks if people were out for the day/had been let go or quit, whatever. The company had a rule that anyone working overtime had to work inside a pod with a supervisor on duty, in case they needed help and to make sure they weren’t hanging up on people. So anyway, one day this dude who I’d never met before comes in asking to work OT. It was a big call center, so this wasn’t uncommon at all. It just so happened that one of the open desks was the closest to mine, opposite the pod entrance. Everything was fine for about an hour. Then I hear him talking to a customer who was clearly pissed. He was doing pretty good. Then after what I thought was just a little pause in the convo, I hear him say, clear as day “fucking cunt...”. I put him in aux and once he finished his next call I told him I heard what he said. He played dumb. I told him he needs to go home now and I’ll cancel his OT. He still played dumb but reluctantly left. I emailed the call center manager and she asked “did you hear it on a recording or in person?” I told her I heard it in person. She told me to see if it popped up on any of his call recordings. So I look through his last 2 calls and sure enough, there it was, at the very beginning of his last call. Apparently the lady he was arguing with had hung up after chewing him out. Now, it was busy at the time and hold times were high. That meant we’d get a lot of requests to call customers back, instead of waiting on hold. The reason I bring that up is because his next call just so happened to be a call-back request. Those would prompt the agent about the customer’s name and info and allow them to press 2 to call the customer back. Buuuut, what he apparently didn’t know (and a lot of people didn’t know) even though they weren’t techincally talking to the customer yet, they were still being recorded the entire time. So I sent his direct sup (obviously she wasn’t working that day but wanted to let her know when she got in why this guy wouldn’t be showing up), and the call center manager the call ID and he was fired right away. The call center manager told me later she just called him and told him not to come back. A few days later his sup came over to tell me that he’d been doing stupid stuff that by itself wasn’t grounds for firing but she could tell he was going that route. We just couldn’t believe how dumb he was for doing it. A lot of people got fired for stuff like that but this one was the funniest. TL;DR - Employee called customer a fucking cunt, I heard it and it was recorded on a call monitor, employee was essentially fired on the spot.
I told an employee to pull the nails out of each wall brace. 1st rule was only remove one brace at a time & pull out the nails so he doesn't miss any or step on any nails. 15 minutes later he comes to me to let me know he stepped on a nail. I reminded him of rule #1 (only rule). 15 minutes later he returned to inform me he had stepped on another nail with the other foot. Now with holes thru both feet I sent him home permanently.
OH MY GOD. When I waited tables we had a lady who forged tips at my old restaurant job. but because the manager though she was cute she got to stay for three more months.
We had a worker that voided receipt when people paid cash. Stole from other departments when they brought their cash and receipts in, the other departments kept getting in trouble for their “poor “ bookkeeping. Finally a person came in to show their receipt after they were billed for something they had already paid for. Turns out she was also inventing companies to be paid and pocketing the money. The system was revamped and she was fired and charged. Turns out she had been fired from three other jobs for doing the same things but her family made good on the missing money so weren’t allowed to tell why she was let go but my boss wanted to be able to tell people so she was prosecuted even after her family repaid the money we could prove she took. We all thought it was a lot more but no proof.
Rule of thumb if someone is stealing one thing they are probably stealing other things. Like if you have an employee stealing staff lunches they are probably stealing company stuff too.
I'm not a manager, but I witness both parts of this two part story. PART 1: I work at a mall department store and it had a really sweet employee discount, but apparently that wasn't enough for this one former employee. One evening when I worked in one department and she worked in another she came over to my area looking to buy something, and I checked the employee price for her and asked that she check out with me because she was nice and I liked talking to her. Later that evening, the closing manager had instructed both myself and the other male employee working to inspect her "purchases" turns out in this merchandise item, there was another one hiding inside it. She was asked to produce her receipt to display proof of purchase, and she was scrambling through her phone trying to find her emailed receipt which didn't exist. She got pissed off from being stressed and stormed out. I thought that due to that due to the nature of retail and working with the public that she had some unruly customers. I was wrong. PART 2: This girl's final day of working, we were both scheduled to work in the same department, which was one of my least favorite departments in the store to work in. Some company big wig comes over and escorts her over to the office. Days later I inquire with someone above my head about the incident and he instructed me to "do my research" after a quick google search I find out that she had been arrested for a series of crimes including theft and embezzlement. Because of her background it is one group of people that I already perceive as entitled and don't like them anyways due to dealing with people of said group in other customer service positions. She is one of many reasons why I don't like her people.
(05:33) this guy definitely gets special sauces added to his food anytime they see his name or number associated with the order. Why continue ordering from there after that?
I guess the same thing (about cashier doing refunds) happened in one of the biggest supermarket in my city (or perhaps it's the standard practice, IDK)... because I remembered cashier was able to make correction to transaction or doing refund... But now, they must call their supervisor, entering password, and whatever else, which can take quite a few tens of minutes, despite it's only a one or two dollars mistake (it was THEIR mistake, not mine).
I didnt realize how easy it was to get fired. Like you call out but you dont wanna tell them the real reason so you say you are sick and get automatically fired? Damn glad ive just happened to have never done that.
It was a new employee. The vast majority of anywhere, even restaurants, will have new employees on a probationary period to see if said employee is going to be reliable and fit well with the company. So it wasn't the fact that he called out, but the fact that he was on his probationary period, called saying he had something life threatening, then proceeded to go to the beach because he didn't want to work. That's the reason the bloke got a well deserved firing.
HeroGroup Gaming I actually called in sick for my whole first week of work. Nobody minded and cared, though I got joked by others about it for a while.
I fired an employee for flipping a side by side driving like an asshole on our test track. The customer ended up with a broken hand and fucked up shoulder. Was a nightmare.
i tip online if i order delivery. it'd be wayyyyyyy too easy for a delivery driver to get in the vehicle, white out your tip, and write whatever they want.
5:40 I mean I'm a broke ass bitch too but what the fuck? Every job I've worked at I've at lease made an attempt to let people know what they'll spend, even if it's only ball park. Even then they're expecting XYZ price give or take maybe 10 dollars or so with tax and that's being extra generous.

Not a manager but an associate. Had a coworker who hated fat people. Irrationally so. He owed money to a girl in the store and when she asked for it back he reacted by taking the smoke break area ashtray (a bbq pit with a load of cat litter inside) and dumped the contents all over said girl's pickup truck. Told off manager and said manager told him to just get the hell out

@@WarpigA23 Have you ever heard of "a figure of speech"?
That Idaho one sound s more like a quitting story than a stupid reason for someone getting fired.
Theyre working remote tho and it sounded like he was still putting work in hahahah they should just let him do it
0x0 Yeah, I was wondering what the issue was if he was still getting his work done. Let him work from a distance!
@@soapghostroach core hours is actually a thing with flexible working hours - its the time where you essentially have to start at the latest and can leave at the earliest, for most companies that will be about 0900-1500 where you can pick when you want to start before or after in a given time frame as long as you fulfill hours worked requirements (i.e. 0600-1800). Have never heard it being used with distance working/home office though. There usually is one or two days a week where employees are required to come in, so they dont "lose touch" with all their coworkers and also administrative stuff like paperwork, boss seeing your face again, knowing whats new with the company itself etc., but certain hours every day smells like bullcrap they made up.
Imagine, one week before Christmas, a client for a truck and fuel company is having a meeting. The employee leaves and a completely separate man enters, one of the truckers, having no business inside that part of the facility. He walks up to the female, married client and asks her to sleep with him and offers her money to do so after being rejected the first 4 times.
The man was immediately fired.
I wonder what he told his own wife and kids onto why he got fired.
"Several levels of fired"
That's pretty good
The guy who did 135 was just trying to sell the car. He did a good job it seems.
My car salesman did the same shit when I was buying my mustang, but on the highway...
Honestly I think most car sales places would take him with open arms. He closed a sale on a very expensive car and even risked jail to do it. As long as that didnt have any repercussions for the store, that should go on his resume.
Bro, he was committed.
@@2MeterLP thing is, most places dont view it like that. I did something similar, and I didnt know there was a tracking device on the truck. Needless to say, I got a right telling off from my boss. And to be fair, even tho there was no traffic and the roads were pretty clear, it was still kind of a stupid thing to do🤷🏾♂️
5:10 "You got ripped off by our man? There's nothing we can do!" There are people who can, though. Call your CC company and reverse the charge. Call the cops on them. Call the news about it.

KaeYoss to be entirely fair, there’s not a whole lot of news outlets who would be tearing to scoop the story of some pizza delivery guy stealing 40 bucks.
Exactly. You can dispute a charge in seconds nowadays after it posts. And it's really freaking easy to have evidence in your favor. Why that person didn't take the 5 minutes to call and reverse the charge is beyond me.
@@CalculatedRiskAK it sounded like a food service I think
@@CalculatedRiskAK maybe before it was easy.
My job apparently had an employee who was regular taking a case of beer without paying. He would do this often, usually several cases at a time, but never so much so that the amount that was taken would get him caught. The reason he finally got caught was because one time the back camera that was by his truck, the one he normally moved so it couldn’t see him, wasn’t moved enough and could clearly seem him taking them. The called him and told him that he was fired. Then he wanted to ask when he could come in to get it final pay, and they told him he wasn’t going to get one. His final pay went towards the stolen beer.
Also to clarify, they were pretty sure it was him, as they began to realize, but they couldn’t prove anything until he forgot to move the camera enough
It's so damn weird to me that in the US there is ZERO security for credit cards. Having tips HANDWRITTEN ON A SLIP OF PAPER then expecting employees (or for that matter businesses) not to steal is hilariously foolish.
For US people: in my home of Canada, they bring a card machine to your table and you add the tip to the bill on the machine itself before you enter your PIN and have the transaction approved (or not approved I suppose). The tip is then *printed* on both your and the business's receipt.
They are starting to do that here too its called a ziosk it stays on the table and is basically a tablet
Yeah, like Jonathan said. It isn't implemented everywhere, but there are several restaurants in the U.S. with this
Is that really how they do it in America? Britain does it like Canada
Were yanks man. We do the opposite of efficiency cause it makes us unique. Yippie ki yaaaaay

Not the manager. A coworker.
This guy just got his driver license back. (Lost it from DUI) So at lunch he asked a coworker to borrow his car to head to the store. He let him. Turns out it was to buy some alcohol and got drunk at work. He was fired and gone before the hour was up.
At a video game company I worked at, the new programmer had an affair with the fiancee of the owner, posted images on facebook, and was amazed when it mattered so much to the owner that he (the programmer) got fired.
What about his fiancee? Did he break up with her?

Here's something I'm surprised a co-worker didn't get fired for:
Dude told a customer... an underage customer... to strip for him... while on the job.
Imagine going to a Halloween haunted house and end up with someone dressed as a hobo yelling at you to strip for him because you didn't give him change. Oh yeah, he also panhandled because his character was a hobo. Dude took actual money from customers, which was a huge no-no. The fact that he didn't get fired shocked me.
When I worked in retail one of the managers had to fire two workers because they got into a messy fight. They apparently had a long history of not liking each other and one night they got into a heated argument around closing time. I was friendly with both. One of them was a big sassy dude and another was a small young woman. I don’t know who was the aggressor but apparently the big dude slammed the young womans head into one of the register several times and had to be held back by one of the assistant managers (who just happened to be a big buff dude and was having a hard time holding him back.) He wasn’t arrested and there were plenty of witnesses so I assumed he wasn’t the aggressor. I hated retail (especially working in such a ghetto area) but few people made my time enjoyable. I definitely miss him and still remember the last thing he said to me: “I don’t give a fuck, man or woman. I’m bi, I fight both ways.” Laweeed

I'm the graphics designer in an international TV enterprise (for latin america and the spanish talking audience living in the US, with some History Channel shows like American Pickers, Ancient Aliens, etc), and 90% of everything I do is done in After Effects. They were looking for another designer for the night shift, and finally they hired one that just graduated from college. They asked me to train her a little bit and get her know how things are done here. After a little introduction, she had to take a little test about how well she use the program. Then this happens
She: Um..... why is this in english?
Me:....what?
She: I don't know english, can you please change the language in this computer?
Me: Um... No I can't (we need administrator allowance to change the settings). You don't even know the basics? And besides, it's literally the same as the spanish version.
She: Yes but I like to know what I'm using.
Me:....you're using "Position"....It's obviously "Posición"
She: yeah, but I don't like it, I want this in spanish.
Me:....K, brb.
I go to my supervisor and tell him that she doesn't know fucking english.
And he told me that she said she KNEW ENGLISH but she lied.
After that, I went to her again and said
"Look, the supervisor needs to talk to you". And that was the last time I saw her.
Bitch, when you work in an INTERNATIONAL enterprise, you HAVE TO KNOW at least the basics of english, or you're pretty much fucked, also that she lied... I don't know in which college she graduated because in almost every graphics design college, they teach english classes. For fucks sake, man.

Honestly more the fault of the overly specific questions than the posters. Most of these are still good stories, just not everyone is a redditor.
Tbh, in most situations when I'm annoyed at something, a simple 'sorry' and a promise of compensation is enough for me to forgive the other person.
Like, for example, if someone knowingly ate my lunch, I'd get pretty annoyed and insist on them buying it back, but if they admitted to it being a mistake and offered to buy it back, I'd forgive them right away, and I'd they were particularly sorry, I might even give them money to buy the lunch back, just sending them to do it.
9:10 I work at a Simon Malls chain mall. They do have “employee parking” which is a blue line that basically outlines the perimeter of the parking lot around the entire mall. It’s not strictly for employees because customers park there all the time. We don’t have parking passes that prove we’re employees. The mall constantly puts up signs saying “customers come first, employees must park in the blue line or the will be towed at your expense.” Needless to say, that mall can suck my left nut because they’ve never towed me in the 6 years I’ve worked there for not parking in the blue line. Just the mall manager having one of her many power trips.

Company requires all accidents of company vehicles to be followed up with a drug and alcohol test.
Co-worker, lab assistant, drives company vehicle into the back end of another vehicle at high speed totaling the vehicle.
Co-worker gets tested. Yup, positive for pot.
Manager says co-worker can no longer use company vehicle.
Co-worker goes ballistic that he should not be penalized for his pot use since it's legal in our state now (OR).
Manager is taking in co-worker's behavior over this simple thing about not being able to use the company vehicle, and says he will take some time to consider my co-worker's complaints.
Lab manager is requested by manager to pull all of co-worker's driving locations in conjunction with drop-off and pick-up points for samples for the past three months of his employment.
Manager brings co-worker back in for meeting. Goes over the points that do not line up with work-related stops.
Co-worker says he used the company vehicle for grocery shopping, fishing, and drove the company vehicle home. All of those are red-flags of misuse.
Manager decides to let my co-worker go because of his drug use, misuse of company vehicle.
Co-worker goes ballistic again on Lab Manager because Lab Manager is just sitting there listening and watching this clown show he's putting on.
Co-worker storms out shouting profanities and slams front door.
TL:DR, co-worker lost his job because he couldn't lose company ride to work. Priorities.

Wow, a good portion of these are restaurants. 😂
Restaurants and retail 90%. I've worked as a cook for about 5 years. Current restaurant been at for 2 years. 5 cooks have come and gone, not that much... Feels like it's been about the same crew for 2 years. But we've gone through like 20 dishwashers, like 6 of them lasted for 1-3 days (and we pay 2 dollars above minimum and it's not a very busy restaurant). And theres been about 40 different front of house employees. The turnover for this industry is nuts.
@@fadew55 as one chef to another, hospo is a sink hole.
@@fadew55 Mainly because the hospitality and retail are industries where human rights violations of staff is more _rule_ than _exception_ .
@@Hadgerz look a lot of shit goes down at restaurants all over the world I know. But nothing happened to these ppl. They didn't have something bad happen by the chef or something. The just walk in on an average busy day, work for 3 hours, we make em a bomb meal whatever they want, they go on break. And then just never come back. No call no word. Ppl suck, employees included. I'm just a cook but even I feel bad for the awesome sous chef who jumps in the dishpit and stays late to do all the other work. Like at least stick out a shift. And let em know at the end of the day u can't do it.
The funniest shit I've seen yet though was like 3 months into my first cook job ever. This dishwasher at the end of the shift says he can't do it anymore and he's putting in his resignation. And the head chef is like "look man, it's been a long very busy night, they're not all like this u know. Take the night think about it, uve got a kid u gotta support, have u figured another job out? if u still want to leave come morning then sure." And the dishwasher is like "nah I just can't do it anymore it's too stressful" and the Chef fuckin now fuming yells "stressful? Ur a fucking dishwasher what do u mean stressful? GTFO of here!"
I used to work at a takeaway and we had a driver get fired for claiming to be “stuck in traffic once”. Turns out he was parked like 3 minutes down the road in his car playing games on his phone when a supervisor drove past them on the way back from the shop and recognised the number plate on the aforementioned delivery drivers car. Needless to say, the driver was phoned up, asked to come back to the store, get cashed up and not to come back to the store.
I used to work at a rental car location. Every so often, about once a month, we'd have to go out to the lot where we stored the wrecked cars. It was locked & nice not to have to deal with customers for awhile. One driver was a weed head. He shows up asking for the keys to the lot with no real reason to go there; then, got mad when we wouldn't give them to him. Another driver said as they were driving, he pulls out some weed & starts rolling a joint & he had to say, "Put that away!"

Not me, but the previous manager for the bakery I now manage once fired a gal for slamming an industrial oven door (around 380-450 degrees celsius) because it was blocking her path. Problem is, the baker was removing racks from the oven and barely was able to escape the swinging door. She was fired on the spot and she insisted it was the baker's fault. Thing is, the doors are windowed, all she had to do was pay attention and she would have seen him.
Not a manager, but at my last job at the casino...
While I working as a custodian, on a Tuesday night in 2019 right before Independence Day, there's these two coworkers of mine (individual contractors who weren't actual company employees like us) who would frequently call in work. On the day they said they supposedly "can't make it", I was sweeping the gaming floor and wiping down machines when lo and behold, those same women came in. They both used the bathroom, but one of them told me not to tell anyone they were here even though all of my other coworkers saw them---plus, they were all on surveillance camera, so even if the supervisor asked me, I wouldn't get away with lying about it.
It was only 90 minutes left until the end of my shift and my radio went off. One of my other coworkers called the supervisor to meet him elsewhere on the floor. I wasn't sure what it was until Friday when he told me those two were immediately fired right on the spot the next day, though Wednesdays and Thursdays were my work weekends. So on Wednesday, when they finally showed up for work, I heard the supervisor simply told them to just go home and not come back.
Fast forward almost two weeks later... both of them returned as company workers. One is on graveyard shift as a custodian while the other is a line cook on certain days and swing schedules. Long story short: They got fired from their contractor jobs but suddenly came back despite being told not to come back.
4:30 had an old coworker at Pizza Hut who put extra zeros on his tips for like a week before anyone suspected anything. That was a nightmare
Isn't it amazing how little empathy these thugs have for their employees? It's all about the HR reaction and how much money to settle, not, oh shit we failed to protect our employee or oh shit our employee was fucking tortured.
At the restaurant I worked at, one of the servers would pocket the entire bill if the customers paid in cash. He would then use one of his other tables who paid with a credit card and swipe the card for that table and the table who paid with cash so the computer showed that every table had been cashed out. Once credit card users started calling in saying they had been charged twice, management figured out what he was doing and fired him. No criminal actions were taken.
Basically, it's completely unnecessary to fire the one employee who didn't show up for work if there's already a home office arrangement in place, you can send them to work from home for the entire time and it doesn't matter where they live
There was a time when I was so broke, I only ate homebrought Muesly with milk I brought myself at work. Can't even store my milk at the fridge at work because bastard food thieves drank all my milk.

When I worked as a mall security officer one of our duties was to help people that had locked their keys in the car. (We had professional kits and off duty police officers were there often.)
One day there was a particularly stubborn lock that none of us could open for an employee of the mall and since several of us including the officers and supervisors had tried and failed, she asked if we could just break the window for her. Well do to company policy and insurance we could not but we told her if she wanted to break the window that she could. The not very bright guard then offered her the fire extinguisher from the back of the security vehicle to use to break the window. After lightly tapping the window a couple of times the girl started crying and the guard that would soon be fired picked up the extinguisher and with supervisors and police officers telling him not to do it and that he would lose his job if he did, puts the extinguisher right through the window. Fired immediately.

we had a guy about 10 years back that used to take the company camcorder and record the secretaries in the bathroom from a hole in the attic. He also gave the camcorder to my boss to use on a job site without deleting the footage.

Alas was not there to see it myself, but at a McDonalds I once worked at, a junior manager was fired because, pissed off for some reason on a shift, he hurled a bag of sugar at one of order monitors. I don't mean a sugar packet for your coffee, I mean the several pound bag of sugar you'd get when buying groceries. He threw one at a monitor. Needless to say, that was his last shift.
The waiter that added a five dollar tip to everyone at a table?
That is called a "gratuity charge," if customers don't tip. Party of five leaving a $0.15 tip each? Service gratuity gets added to the *Bill* not the tip, but the gratuity goes to the server, that is if the owner knows the law and implements it.
The place I worked had a mandatory gratuity charge for groups over five people(small building) that was $25.00(mandatory if the server wanted to add it that is.)
Plenty of people get pissed until I show them the total tip of $4.50 they left on a table that, before they split the bill, payed for over $400 worth of food/service.
After I showed them the math politely, and people realize the mistake they usually would tip again just for the rudeness.
I didn't fire this guy because I knew he would quit soon anyway. I worked in fast food and we had a manager who was stealing right and left. They caught him and removed him from the store without even letting him collect his personal belongings. It was kind of funny because one of the things he left behind was a comic book from the library, way overdue. I returned it. A few years later a kid in his early 20's applies for a job and he has the same (very unusual) last name, so I asked him, "Are you So-and-so's son?"
"Yeah, but I don't even talk to my dad." He obviously knew why we had fired his father.
Against my better judgement we hired him as a closer. His first night was working with me. This is the conversation we had around 11 PM:
"Hey, man, is there anyway I could leave early? My girlfriend is pregnant and she has a doctor's appointment in half an hour. She could go by herself, but I really want to do this stuff with her, you know. I want to be a good dad. My dad was never a good dad, but I want to be a good dad."
"So . . . your girlfriend has an OBGYN appointment at 11:30 at night?"
"Yes."
I just stared into his eyes waiting for him to realize what he had said. Nothing!
"OK, you go ahead."
He quit 2 days later.
Not a smart move from a new father-to-be to quit, but not my problem :p

They tried to tell me to park in employee parking, which I did, until my window got busted out and some stuff stolen.
I told them that until they paid for the stolen items and the window replacement I was parking wherever the fuck I wanted, namely, where my car wouldn't get fucked up. Namely, the level security actually patrolled. Namely, the level all the customers parked on.
Stealing from the company or costumers is one of the very, very few things that can even very easily get you fired on the spot in germany where firing isn't easy in general and the clean process takes at least 3 months of full pay. Forging receipts is such a heavy and obviously intentional violation of trust that i have hard time imagining a valid defense. In the legal system that's probably even worse then regular stealing. So if that just get's you fired you are actually lucky. The forged receipts are also very solid evidence in court. So your best chances are just cooperating and hoping that none sues you.
I have a carpet cleaning business and I dropped off an employee to a job and helped him get set up, then left him to go to the bank, on my return an hour or so after I walked in to the room and saw he was finished, and done an excellent job, the very dirty carpet was now white, the machine was cleaned and emptied and all the cables were neatly wrapped up. The carpet looked beautiful but there was one problem, when we picked the machine up to load it into the van I found that he hadn’t cleaned under the machine and there was a perfect rectangle outline of the machine on the dirtiest part of the carpet. This was the last of almost daily instances of stupid stuff like this happening. Dopey Steve had to go.

That lady who lost it because someone ate her bagel, it reminded me of that episode of Friends where Ross who blew his top because someone ate his sandwich at the museum.
nekokat reminded me of that too!
Phill is really relatable tho, if he was doing his job I do not see the issue tbh
The last one was hilarious! Good on management to be vague when confronting the culprit
Nice pfp
Those shoes also ended up causing broken ankles.
When your so tired working cashier. And $20 look like $1s
So you get $7 in change so that is 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, 140. Short.
glad i live in canada where our money is colour coded
Not an manger, not an employee, but I've seen a person get fired...
...on TV...
. . . through a recording. . . uploaded to UA-cam, and not by me.
I'm not a manager but...
I work at racing stable for a well know strapper, (your only hints are his youngest brother has down syndrome and his youngest sister is champion jockey) anyways, my job is to clean out the boxes of poop, lay out fresh bedding for the horses, make sure their waters are clean and fresh. One day, we had two new girls come in and it was a muggy, rainy day and they were suppose to help me with the boxes, I only saw them both about once or twice before they completely disappeared on me. To give you an idea on how much there was to be done, there are at least 5 sets of boxes, each with varing numbers and different names;
Inside: 18 boxes.
Back: 6 boxes.
Summer Yards: 12 boxes (at the time, additional ones being built).
Taj: 12 boxes.
Siberia: 3 boxes.
This list exculdes the two 'bullrings', 'holding yards' and the triangle paddock.
When the handlers take out horses to the paddocks or up top, we have to get the paddock horses done first and they don't wait for us to be finished with the boxes before putting them back in unless we're already standing in a box and are almost finished with it. Now it was wet, humid and more than once did my wheelbarrow tip over, I was rushing around to get as much as I could do since the two new girls vanished on me. I couldn't get everything done before my shift was over and ended up leaving a shit show (literally) for the afternoon staff. The next day I was working with familiar and dedicated faces, while over at Siberia, I was telling my co-worker about the day before and he told me what happened to the two girls. They both left early because one said her hands were cold and the other was complaining about blisters on her hands. My jaw nearly hit the floor, I thought out loud 'What useless bitches!!!' and my co-worker laughed. I mean, really!! You don't take up a job as a stable hand and not expect you hands to get roughed up!
I have a lot of these, but this one always just makes me chuckle, due to the sheer stupidity. I was a manager at a call center for a big cell phone company. I had a desk in the middle of a ‘pod’ which was basically just an area with 16 desks, all surrounding mine. Oftentimes we’d have open desks if people were out for the day/had been let go or quit, whatever. The company had a rule that anyone working overtime had to work inside a pod with a supervisor on duty, in case they needed help and to make sure they weren’t hanging up on people. So anyway, one day this dude who I’d never met before comes in asking to work OT. It was a big call center, so this wasn’t uncommon at all. It just so happened that one of the open desks was the closest to mine, opposite the pod entrance. Everything was fine for about an hour. Then I hear him talking to a customer who was clearly pissed. He was doing pretty good. Then after what I thought was just a little pause in the convo, I hear him say, clear as day “fucking cunt...”. I put him in aux and once he finished his next call I told him I heard what he said. He played dumb. I told him he needs to go home now and I’ll cancel his OT. He still played dumb but reluctantly left. I emailed the call center manager and she asked “did you hear it on a recording or in person?” I told her I heard it in person. She told me to see if it popped up on any of his call recordings. So I look through his last 2 calls and sure enough, there it was, at the very beginning of his last call. Apparently the lady he was arguing with had hung up after chewing him out. Now, it was busy at the time and hold times were high. That meant we’d get a lot of requests to call customers back, instead of waiting on hold. The reason I bring that up is because his next call just so happened to be a call-back request. Those would prompt the agent about the customer’s name and info and allow them to press 2 to call the customer back. Buuuut, what he apparently didn’t know (and a lot of people didn’t know) even though they weren’t techincally talking to the customer yet, they were still being recorded the entire time. So I sent his direct sup (obviously she wasn’t working that day but wanted to let her know when she got in why this guy wouldn’t be showing up), and the call center manager the call ID and he was fired right away. The call center manager told me later she just called him and told him not to come back. A few days later his sup came over to tell me that he’d been doing stupid stuff that by itself wasn’t grounds for firing but she could tell he was going that route. We just couldn’t believe how dumb he was for doing it. A lot of people got fired for stuff like that but this one was the funniest.
TL;DR - Employee called customer a fucking cunt, I heard it and it was recorded on a call monitor, employee was essentially fired on the spot.
I told an employee to pull the nails out of each wall brace. 1st rule was only remove one brace at a time & pull out the nails so he doesn't miss any or step on any nails. 15 minutes later he comes to me to let me know he stepped on a nail. I reminded him of rule #1 (only rule). 15 minutes later he returned to inform me he had stepped on another nail with the other foot. Now with holes thru both feet I sent him home permanently.
Phill in Idaho just wanted to move and no job is gonna keep them down. They probably should have given their two weeks notice though.
OH MY GOD. When I waited tables we had a lady who forged tips at my old restaurant job. but because the manager though she was cute she got to stay for three more months.
what a cute liability
We had a worker that voided receipt when people paid cash. Stole from other departments when they brought their cash and receipts in, the other departments kept getting in trouble for their “poor “ bookkeeping. Finally a person came in to show their receipt after they were billed for something they had already paid for. Turns out she was also inventing companies to be paid and pocketing the money. The system was revamped and she was fired and charged. Turns out she had been fired from three other jobs for doing the same things but her family made good on the missing money so weren’t allowed to tell why she was let go but my boss wanted to be able to tell people so she was prosecuted even after her family repaid the money we could prove she took. We all thought it was a lot more but no proof.
Guy who emailed himself pics off a customer's phone is 5 levels of dumb and 7 levels of creepy.
Phil moving to Idaho always gets me. Dude, did you think you could get away with that forever? Phil, what the h*ll
1:15 assistant *to the* regional manager. Lol
Rule of thumb if someone is stealing one thing they are probably stealing other things. Like if you have an employee stealing staff lunches they are probably stealing company stuff too.
phil's was the best one 🤣🤣😂😂😂
That first guy did a power move. Respect.
I'm not a manager, but I witness both parts of this two part story. PART 1: I work at a mall department store and it had a really sweet employee discount, but apparently that wasn't enough for this one former employee. One evening when I worked in one department and she worked in another she came over to my area looking to buy something, and I checked the employee price for her and asked that she check out with me because she was nice and I liked talking to her. Later that evening, the closing manager had instructed both myself and the other male employee working to inspect her "purchases" turns out in this merchandise item, there was another one hiding inside it. She was asked to produce her receipt to display proof of purchase, and she was scrambling through her phone trying to find her emailed receipt which didn't exist. She got pissed off from being stressed and stormed out. I thought that due to that due to the nature of retail and working with the public that she had some unruly customers. I was wrong. PART 2: This girl's final day of working, we were both scheduled to work in the same department, which was one of my least favorite departments in the store to work in. Some company big wig comes over and escorts her over to the office. Days later I inquire with someone above my head about the incident and he instructed me to "do my research" after a quick google search I find out that she had been arrested for a series of crimes including theft and embezzlement. Because of her background it is one group of people that I already perceive as entitled and don't like them anyways due to dealing with people of said group in other customer service positions. She is one of many reasons why I don't like her people.
Which group? Like a friendship group? Or a type of job?
Karens possibly?
@@isabellamorris7902 she’s Indian
(05:33) this guy definitely gets special sauces added to his food anytime they see his name or number associated with the order. Why continue ordering from there after that?
9:05
How did the mall know he was an employee
I swear to Officer I’m not God, drunk!
Haha that last one is why you don't confess before you know what you are being charged with :P
the working from home one certainly aged
I guess the same thing (about cashier doing refunds) happened in one of the biggest supermarket in my city (or perhaps it's the standard practice, IDK)... because I remembered cashier was able to make correction to transaction or doing refund... But now, they must call their supervisor, entering password, and whatever else, which can take quite a few tens of minutes, despite it's only a one or two dollars mistake (it was THEIR mistake, not mine).
I didnt realize how easy it was to get fired. Like you call out but you dont wanna tell them the real reason so you say you are sick and get automatically fired? Damn glad ive just happened to have never done that.
It was a new employee. The vast majority of anywhere, even restaurants, will have new employees on a probationary period to see if said employee is going to be reliable and fit well with the company. So it wasn't the fact that he called out, but the fact that he was on his probationary period, called saying he had something life threatening, then proceeded to go to the beach because he didn't want to work. That's the reason the bloke got a well deserved firing.
HeroGroup Gaming I actually called in sick for my whole first week of work. Nobody minded and cared, though I got joked by others about it for a while.
I fired an employee for flipping a side by side driving like an asshole on our test track. The customer ended up with a broken hand and fucked up shoulder. Was a nightmare.
I remember a coworker got fired for stealing m&ms
13:34 that line has me dying
The bus pass one 🤣
The tips ones must be from the US, in Canada we put our own tips into the machine.
i tip online if i order delivery. it'd be wayyyyyyy too easy for a delivery driver to get in the vehicle, white out your tip, and write whatever they want.
That picture never fails to make me laugh
Came back from her lunch break sloppy drunk. Another employee had to take her home.
5:40 I mean I'm a broke ass bitch too but what the fuck? Every job I've worked at I've at lease made an attempt to let people know what they'll spend, even if it's only ball park. Even then they're expecting XYZ price give or take maybe 10 dollars or so with tax and that's being extra generous.
Worked in domino's. A delivery guy stole a 16oz coke and denied it. He lost his job for a coke not even the good kind of coke it wasn't event cold.
Who puts a bagel in the fridge?
We put them in the freezer, something about killing pathogens...
Honestly I don't eat bagels so I don't know why I posted this.
Everyone?
If it's a filled one, especially with meat or fish, then *not* refrigerating it is asking for trouble! It's no different to any other sandwich in that respect.
@@y_fam_goeglyd They come with meat in them? More reasons not to eat bagels.
The tip culprit could have gotten away with it if he kept the added amount small, like 1$ at most
I was working at a landscaping co and the company needed drivers this guy lied about having a drivers license I think he was just trying to get out of driving
Not a manager but an associate. Had a coworker who hated fat people. Irrationally so.
He owed money to a girl in the store and when she asked for it back he reacted by taking the smoke break area ashtray (a bbq pit with a load of cat litter inside) and dumped the contents all over said girl's pickup truck.
Told off manager and said manager told him to just get the hell out

Wow that dealership is a shit hole if he didn’t get the commission at least.
