That maintenance man was out of line, and seriously speaking out of turn. He’s buddy-buddy with those residents and tried to subvert the office manager and a hoped it would work. He needs to be reprimanded. That’s what you get when you put an illegal tag on your car. The dealer most certainly did not give them a tag that belongs to another vehicle. No way.
This maintenance guy seems to think he’s the owner/manager/end all be all, last word on everything about the complex. Either he’s VASTLY underpaid because he’s doing a job above his current pay grade, or (more likely) he is just power tripping.

I love your de-escalation abilities. People try to get away with anything, including dealers giving "temp" tags that actually belong to another vehicle to avoid paying taxes.
🤣 Maintenance 'Manager' thinks everything should get run through him - comes to realize how little power he actually holds. Keep up the great work - stay safe
16+ years myself and no he's not a "maintenance guy" he's unaware of the crackdown, couldn't reach the office for a quick verification, didn't understand the security team has a policy for marking and checking the cars that get towed by a policy checklist and any change is printed on a bright paper posted in their office to remind them of a new updates
The maintenance guy is just that. The MAINTENANCE GUY! He should mind his dang business and fix the apartments rather than worry about what's towed out of there! Absolutely insane!
@@beentheredoneization last year that happened to me…. Came home from work and kitchen was flooded with dirty sink water and poop…. Dude came in with a shop vac the next morning I slept in the car
Towing is part of our jobs we deal with in maintenance however the fact that he could have called the property Mgr and confirmed the case and he didn't said a lot
as an impound driver myself, I can vouch that this happens all the damn time. if a place have signs that says "PERMIT REQUIRED" permits are needed. Every time someone comes up to me about towing their car they play 20 questions every damn time. And I always give them the same answer; You need a permit to park here.
I just love the that gobby "Maintenence Manager" disappeared when Johnno told him his office was talking to his boss confirming the towing. No apology for interfering, no nothing, just a tippy toe stage left.
If she spent that much time and effort into legally registering her car, none of this would have happened. No legit dealer is going to slap a random tag on a vehicle. They will give you a temp tag or a tag issued to the dealership for new vehicles. Stay safe out there, Johnny and God bless!
@@a1fbgdennis no you haven't because car salesman don't have plates that are registered to specific vehicles. My stepfather has dealer plates. They do not belong to any particular vehicle. They belong to the business. That's how they can literally slap them on any vehicle. Whoever you are talking about is not an actual car salesman or working at a dealership. An actual car salesman does not give out plates that belong to specific vehicles. They have dealer plates that actually say dealer on them or repair or something like that. And they do not belong to a specific vehicle, they belong to the company....
@@Predreus that still doesn't mean it's okay to just throw random plates on your vehicle. If you cannot get your vehicle registered because you got scammed by carvana, there are legal routes to take in order to be driving legally....
I'm so glad you called dispatch and the acting COMPANY manager while the maintenance manager was there. It's very well someone from the corporate office came to run the site because code enforcement came through. I have a feeling the maintenance manager ended up having to find a different job after this. Ive worked for a few corporations and when a site was having code enforcement, health department, etc complaints a District manager would be sent out to get it straightened out. Another crazy day Johnny..Its awesome how you stay calm as you do.
Her dealer told her to put a random tag on her car until her tag comes in? GIRL BYE and if this is the second time her car been towed?! Then she needs to get her crap together. I do not believe that dude in that red top and snap back talking about he works for the neighborhood....not to mention he is very unprofessional. Keep up the good content Johnny! love your videos!

In Georgia you can move a tag from an old car to a new car. It sounds to me like this is what she was trying to do but she was supposed to wait until she got the registration from the DMV.

If you give someone a title like "supervisor" and it goes to their head, you made the wrong decision. He isn't qualified to bear that title acting like that. He's a glorified toilet plunger and lawn cutter without the clout to do anything.
I am so happy to see the manager back ya'll on that tow. She shouldn't be able to drive the car with improper tages. Good job Johnny and God bless you.
I admire your patience and professionalism. Three people talking to you all at once while you’re on the telephone trying to clarify the situation for them is a testament to you. You knew what you were supposed to do but took the time to try and explain so they were kept in the loop even though they were in the wrong and knew it. Well done.
And it's what he should have done was drive off. Once he said he was maintenance should have said talk to the property manager and go off. This isn't being professional, I wouldn't doubt this is all fake.
I am curious about why these guys even bother stopping to chat. Seems like an unnecessary risk. But I guess waiting for drama to pop off does bring views…
Depending on the state that can actually be illegal and make it theft on his part. Most states have laws that state if a driver is confronted before the vehicle is removed the apartment complex, then they must drop the vehicle and in most states they are allowed to charge a drop fee. However, they cannot refuse to drop it as long as the resident is willing to pay the drop fee or else it becomes theft.
You should have told her it is against the law on the wrong tag. No dealer would risk losing their license by putting a tag on a car that belongs to another model.
@@HanginInSF Carvana is in all types of shit right now. Just saw a local investigative report (Philly) about them not giving people tags/titles. The one guy hasn't been able to drive his car for months since buying it. Paid for something that he couldn't use. It's crazy what they're doing to people

Well done for keeping your cool! Maintenance guy seemed like he was probably trying to help a friend out to not get towed. Was so glad office backed you up and that you towed it!
It's amazing how people come up with all these reasons why their car CAN'T be towed. Straight up, the maintenance man was in the wrong! He has no business even getting in the middle of this. If the property manager had any integrity what so ever ... they will drop this guy on his head. It's clear he has some involvement with the owner and should not be trying to get you to put yourself in a position. GREAT JOB keeping your cool Johnny. Stay safe brother. ✌️🇺🇸
It’s unbelievable to me that someone would put a tag from another car on their car, and think that they’re going to get away from it. Does code enforcement ticket cars? She definitely broke the law. Good job keeping everybody cool Johnny. You are exceptionally good at working with the public. Props to you.
It’s a poverty problem. People have issues and do what they can to try to pacify the law. They don’t own property or even have family that owns property that they can store their vehicle on. They may not even know anybody with a yard big enough to store a vehicle. Problems y’all wouldn’t ever understand I guess. And that car is their livelihood. Don’t judge people whose situation you’ve never been in.
In college I wrote parking tickets for the University. Quite frequently I had to have vehicles towed. I can't remember how many people who came out to argue demanding I release the vehicle. I found keeping a calm demeanor during these confrontations was the way to go. If the situation got out of control, I just had the University Police respond and deal with it. Sometimes these folks would say the wrong thing and away they went.
I hope the management of those buildings has a good talk with the maintenance department about overriding the complex rules. You handled that better than I would have.
You just gotta love these people. They'll bold face lie to your face even when you know the truth. I would have drove off with the car especially when that maintenance man started his excrement. You know the policy as well as your dispatcher. Take only so much and then roll on.
Yo was that a bullet proof vest? Much respect man, that's intense. People can get crazy when this kinda stuff happens, and you're just trying to do your job, I feel for both sides, because I've been there, I've had my car towed out of my own driveway (Private property too, not a rental or anything owned outright) because code enforcement was like "YOU NEED A TAG ON YOUR CAR" its like it didn't pass inspection I gotta fix it, they wont let me register it until its fixed and I didn't have a garage. But that's not the tow guys fault, shit happens, people gotta do their jobs you can't get mad at it, or rather, you can be mad at it just not at the guy or lady trying to do their job, they don't wanna ruin your day anymore than they want you to ruin theirs. Kudos to pretty much everyone involved in this one, no one got irate, especially being an apartment complex those can get heated as neighbors and stuff start coming out.
Idk how he does this sometimes. Non-consensual towing is one of the trickiest jobs. Not to mention dangerous. I don't have the patience for peoples BS!
“I understand” means, I hear you and I want to care but I’m all out of F&$@‘s to give so I’m going to take your car, please don’t shoot me in the face for your car that doesn’t even run
Good on you, Johnny, for being calm and respectful in these situations. Somebody in management needs to have a talk to that maintenance bloke, too, he was trying to pull a swifty.
You were super patient. Everyone has a story. Probably better off just towing stuff as fast as you can and letting the people tell their story to the yard where the cars are stored.
The maintenance man has a " special relationship" with the resident. You get what I mean..... He's trying to override the security officer AND the property manager for this woman. He wouldn't do it for other residents.
That woman need to clean her ear out, always saying "Huh" after every sentence. You repeating yourself way too many times and you have a patience of a saint.
So here's a small fact about security companies working for apartments. When I worked security, we had authorization to tow vehicles off the properties for violations. The maintenance team, or any other workers did not need to be informed unless it was during operation hours for their shifts. Due to working at night, I was the only one who could call and authorize a tow. Now some places don't allow security companies to tow, and that's fine, but if the maintenance guy is getting involved during the day time hours, then something doesn't add up to him not knowing who would be towed. This dude is acting like he knows all the rules for the security company, and I can guarantee you that he doesn't even work during the night hours. He was just trying to make sure his buddy there could see that he can handle things. Jokes on you man, you failed and it was sad just seeing you try to act all smart.
@@chuckh4077 It mostly sucked when I had to drive to a location that was miles away to sign for a tow. They would call us at the worst times and expect us to be there in 5 minutes, and I'm literally 45 mins away.
Never heard that before, I can only assume that it was a gigantic apartment complex. Usually only the property manager can authorize a tow. Like most honest tow companies will not even accept a tow authorization from someone other then a verified property manager. Simply because it can become a legal issue for a tow company if they roll onto private property and tow for no reason. As an apartment complex is still considered private property under most state's laws. Under most states law if a tow company rolls onto private property and tows without proper authorization then it is no different then stealing the car. In my state, if you confront the tow truck driver before he rolls off of your property (assuming apartment complex and not a self-owned home) then they must drop the vehicle. They are allowed to charge a $75 drop fee, BUT if they refuse to drop the vehicle on confrontation then it becomes theft.
@@craigfin3222 the tow companies had to be contracted to work for the complexes for them to tow any vehicles. The only time the tow companies would tow without management or my knowledge, is if they were doing a permit check. If the vehicle didn't have a parking permit, it would be subject to tow without needing me or management to be there. Now if they hooked a vehicle and the owner came and stopped them, they would have the option to pay the drop fee. I only saw this happen twice, and the owner still thought they were allowed to park in the fire land because there were no other parking spots left. At no time did I authorize a tow that wasn't illegal or not a good tow. None of the drivers would tow a vehicle if it looked like it was legally allowed to be there.
Im sure buddy wouldn't mind helping her get the car back being as though he's so dedicated to his job of keeping the residents with reliable transportation. But he better budget wisely seeing it might be his last paycheck. I bet he doesn't put that much passion into keeping those units up to par.

Hey Johnny - Why don't you have business cards to hand to folks? - That's a common thing for legitimate businesses to have. I'm surprised your boss doesn't provide them to you and the other employees.
I love when he says, “Oh, sh*t, here we go”. Johnny knew there was trouble coming! The women claims she didn’t know the tag wasn’t right. It’s possible she didn’t but that’s doubtful. The maintenance man wanted to be the hero to the woman. He was out of line.
Maintenance man trying to maintain his relationship. The plate doesn’t belong to the car. The plate doesn’t belong to the car. The plate doesn’t belong to the car. My dealer. 🤣🤣🤣
omg the maintenance guy thinks he is in charge..arguing and using shady language on the phone..apparently he thinks he knows everything ,,haha was a pleasure to see him shut down
Anyone else think that the maintenance guy was personal friends with those tenants and that's why he got involved. Way to keep your cool Johnny. Stay safe.
Johnny, I don't know how you're able to stay so calms when you're getting grief from the resident AND from a supposed "head maintenance" guy. They're all trying to yank your chain and you remained calm, matter-of-fact period. I probably would've lost my cool at some point. Kudos to you for remaining calm! Once again you showed your integrity, Johnny. Way to go sir! Be safe and God bless you! 😊🌻🙏🏻❤️
You know Johnny sometimes being a nice guy is gonna put you in a very vulnerable position and something bad is going to happen. Once it’s hooked in on the truck and you’re driving you probably just need to go to the yard and let the owners deal with it from there.
I get your point, but it's also abotu reading people. I have only been watching about a week, and Johnnie seems like he knows how to read people and has street smarts.
I just came across this channel a day or two ago and you do your best to talk to people respectfully at all times. You are doing your job and people got every excuse in the book I see.
The lack of communication caused that situation to escalate. The maintenance supervisor was stepping a little out of line with his demanding, all could have been avoided if he had called the property manager. He could have asked you to give him a few minutes to verify the car was on the tow list. He either didn’t know or was pulling a fast one on Johnny.
Whew...Johnny you're a good one because they overwhelmed me with all the back and forth especially the maintenance guy! I would've probably drove off🤦 🥴🤷
Wow I can't believe that maintenance guy! Great job for keeping your cool even after he spoke to your coworker on the phone like that. You take much in your stride good job mate. Stay safe
I love when people try and get you to repeat yourself over and over hoping you'll say something different. Also they need to give you cards with the pick up info.
That maintenance man was out of line, and seriously speaking out of turn. He’s buddy-buddy with those residents and tried to subvert the office manager and a hoped it would work.

I found keeping a calm demeanor during these confrontations was the way to go. If the situation got out of control, I just had the University Police respond and deal with it. Sometimes these folks would say the wrong thing and away they went.
Have to say you're one of the NICEST tow truck operators I have ever seen in video!
So the maintenance guy wanted the car dropped…..is he willing to then pay the $1k fine for the code violation out of his pocket? Doubt it!
Can’t even pay the $100 drop fee
@@RustyZipper lmao
I hope the management of those buildings has a good talk with the maintenance department about overriding the complex rules. You handled that better than I would have.
The patience you have is beyond me I would’ve just drove off
Maintenance man is smashing that tenant. Plain and simple. He trying to help his shorty. Lol
You just gotta love these people. They'll bold face lie to your face even when you know the truth. I would have drove off with the car especially when that maintenance man started his excrement. You know the policy as well as your dispatcher. Take only so much and then roll on.
Johnny's dispatch "done tole him"
people.... negative...
That was a tough one. You handled that one very professionally, Johnny. You kept your cool and still treated everyone respectfully.
Not really, cut and dried. Johnny should have some business cards , handed them out and left. Let those clowns call whomever they wish
Bruh I would not have stayed to shoot the breeze with randos.
Patience of a damn saint
Yo was that a bullet proof vest? Much respect man, that's intense. People can get crazy when this kinda stuff happens, and you're just trying to do your job, I feel for both sides, because I've been there, I've had my car towed out of my own driveway (Private property too, not a rental or anything owned outright) because code enforcement was like "YOU NEED A TAG ON YOUR CAR" its like it didn't pass inspection I gotta fix it, they wont let me register it until its fixed and I didn't have a garage. But that's not the tow guys fault, shit happens, people gotta do their jobs you can't get mad at it, or rather, you can be mad at it just not at the guy or lady trying to do their job, they don't wanna ruin your day anymore than they want you to ruin theirs. Kudos to pretty much everyone involved in this one, no one got irate, especially being an apartment complex those can get heated as neighbors and stuff start coming out.
That "maintenance man" needs to learn to stay in his lane
Nice work Johnny
Little boy, Mercedes has an improper tag. End of story. Keep safe Johnny.
This guy has way more patience than I do. There’s no way I’d survive in this industry.
great respect for you, not a predatory tow and you even stopped and talked reasonably with the customer, great job.
“Just put the car down and take the others”
Talk about entitlement….
Lazy. Entitled
Says everything you need to know about them 🎯
I'm still not convinced that guy was actually the maintenance man.
Me to 🥴🤔
Easy to say that sitting on your comfy chair. Go ask him personally to see if he is
@@Sebastianator01 WHAT
@@Sebastianator01 found the maintenance man's account
"OK, well let me take it back to my dealer." I laughed out loud at that one
Tell these people stop trying to play STUPID and accept responsibility for their criminal actions! Smh
I figured out your code: “I understand that “, means “You’re a damn liar”. 🤣🤣🤣
Idk how he does this sometimes. Non-consensual towing is one of the trickiest jobs. Not to mention dangerous. I don't have the patience for peoples BS!
“I understand” means, I hear you and I want to care but I’m all out of F&$@‘s to give so I’m going to take your car, please don’t shoot me in the face for your car that doesn’t even run
It also means "You're f****d." 😁😁
Good on you, Johnny, for being calm and respectful in these situations. Somebody in management needs to have a talk to that maintenance bloke, too, he was trying to pull a swifty.
You are too nice. I would’ve left and avoided the situation. All the way respect for you. New subscriber💯
You were super patient. Everyone has a story. Probably better off just towing stuff as fast as you can and letting the people tell their story to the yard where the cars are stored.
The maintenance man has a " special relationship" with the resident. You get what I mean..... He's trying to override the security officer AND the property manager for this woman. He wouldn't do it for other residents.
Exactly
Great job Johnny! You have the patience of a saint! I would have just driven off so many times where you stayed calm....great job!
Wow a whole new level of calm; awesome job Johnny. That maintenance tech was out of line!
That woman need to clean her ear out, always saying "Huh" after every sentence. You repeating yourself way too many times and you have a patience of a saint.
So here's a small fact about security companies working for apartments. When I worked security, we had authorization to tow vehicles off the properties for violations. The maintenance team, or any other workers did not need to be informed unless it was during operation hours for their shifts. Due to working at night, I was the only one who could call and authorize a tow. Now some places don't allow security companies to tow, and that's fine, but if the maintenance guy is getting involved during the day time hours, then something doesn't add up to him not knowing who would be towed. This dude is acting like he knows all the rules for the security company, and I can guarantee you that he doesn't even work during the night hours. He was just trying to make sure his buddy there could see that he can handle things. Jokes on you man, you failed and it was sad just seeing you try to act all smart.
They gave you guys alot of power. I worked in security and I just reported the violations and it was up to property manager to call in the tow guy.
@@chuckh4077 It mostly sucked when I had to drive to a location that was miles away to sign for a tow. They would call us at the worst times and expect us to be there in 5 minutes, and I'm literally 45 mins away.
Never heard that before, I can only assume that it was a gigantic apartment complex. Usually only the property manager can authorize a tow. Like most honest tow companies will not even accept a tow authorization from someone other then a verified property manager. Simply because it can become a legal issue for a tow company if they roll onto private property and tow for no reason. As an apartment complex is still considered private property under most state's laws. Under most states law if a tow company rolls onto private property and tows without proper authorization then it is no different then stealing the car.
In my state, if you confront the tow truck driver before he rolls off of your property (assuming apartment complex and not a self-owned home) then they must drop the vehicle. They are allowed to charge a $75 drop fee, BUT if they refuse to drop the vehicle on confrontation then it becomes theft.
@@craigfin3222 the tow companies had to be contracted to work for the complexes for them to tow any vehicles. The only time the tow companies would tow without management or my knowledge, is if they were doing a permit check. If the vehicle didn't have a parking permit, it would be subject to tow without needing me or management to be there.
Now if they hooked a vehicle and the owner came and stopped them, they would have the option to pay the drop fee. I only saw this happen twice, and the owner still thought they were allowed to park in the fire land because there were no other parking spots left. At no time did I authorize a tow that wasn't illegal or not a good tow. None of the drivers would tow a vehicle if it looked like it was legally allowed to be there.
I like the way that the maintenance guy thought he was in charge. Very well handled. Be safe out there.
You are the most compassionate person. Thank you for treating people as well as you do!
Im sure buddy wouldn't mind helping her get the car back being as though he's so dedicated to his job of keeping the residents with reliable transportation. But he better budget wisely seeing it might be his last paycheck. I bet he doesn't put that much passion into keeping those units up to par.
I'm impressed with your patience with people. It must be hard to deal with manipulative, misleading, entitled people but you do it well.
Maintenance guy found out he wasn’t as important as he thought he was. You really can keep it professional brother!!! 🇺🇦☮️✌🏻

Hey Johnny - Why don't you have business cards to hand to folks? - That's a common thing for legitimate businesses to have. I'm surprised your boss doesn't provide them to you and the other employees.
It's not the maintenance person's problem....he needs to butt out. God bless you brother....
I don't know how you stay so calm.
Maintenance man was acting like he ran the place. Great job keeping things professional and calm.
What a pain. Can’t believe they think you just like to ride in and find random cars to tow. Glad you kept your cool.
alot of tow companies do thats why the maintenance man was questioning i believe
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Your videos are full of exemplary professionalism.
That maintenance mam must be getting some from that lady. He sure stood up for her and seemed emotionally involved in his initial comments.
Johnny was cool with it! The maintenance guy tried to flex and was shut down with the quickness! That boy knew he was lying! He got flexed alright 😆 🤣
I love when he says, “Oh, sh*t, here we go”. Johnny knew there was trouble coming! The women claims she didn’t know the tag wasn’t right. It’s possible she didn’t but that’s doubtful. The maintenance man wanted to be the hero to the woman. He was out of line.
Maintenance man probably been squashing her while her man is at work.
Maintenance man trying to maintain his relationship. The plate doesn’t belong to the car. The plate doesn’t belong to the car. The plate doesn’t belong to the car. My dealer. 🤣🤣🤣
omg the maintenance guy thinks he is in charge..arguing and using shady language on the phone..apparently he thinks he knows everything ,,haha was a pleasure to see him shut down
Anyone else think that the maintenance guy was personal friends with those tenants and that's why he got involved. Way to keep your cool Johnny. Stay safe.
Johnny, I don't know how you're able to stay so calms when you're getting grief from the resident AND from a supposed "head maintenance" guy. They're all trying to yank your chain and you remained calm, matter-of-fact period. I probably would've lost my cool at some point.
Kudos to you for remaining calm! Once again you showed your integrity, Johnny. Way to go sir! Be safe and God bless you! 😊🌻🙏🏻❤️
easy... he is wearing a bullet proof vest and does not want to get shot
You know Johnny sometimes being a nice guy is gonna put you in a very vulnerable position and something bad is going to happen. Once it’s hooked in on the truck and you’re driving you probably just need to go to the yard and let the owners deal with it from there.
I get your point, but it's also abotu reading people. I have only been watching about a week, and Johnnie seems like he knows how to read people and has street smarts.
Respect to the tow truck driver, and shame on the maintenance man for not minding his business. You don't need to be in everybody's cup of tea.
“We got 9 other cars to get”
“Why can’t you just drop this one and get those?”
It’s called bad luck. It’s the way the cookie crumbles.
9 other people not blowing the maintenance guy...
Lol
I heard that shit too...smdh
I just came across this channel a day or two ago and you do your best to talk to people respectfully at all times. You are doing your job and people got every excuse in the book I see.
This boy said" can you just put this down & get those"🤣
Sir you for sure know customer service. You were so professional. My hat goes off to you.
The lack of communication caused that situation to escalate. The maintenance supervisor was stepping a little out of line with his demanding, all could have been avoided if he had called the property manager. He could have asked you to give him a few minutes to verify the car was on the tow list. He either didn’t know or was pulling a fast one on Johnny.
He is Maintenance, the removal / towing of cars has absolutely nothing to do with him!
Whew...Johnny you're a good one because they overwhelmed me with all the back and forth especially the maintenance guy! I would've probably drove off🤦 🥴🤷
Tell the maintenance man it's none of his business. Bud out.
Man, you know times have changed, when you’ve gotta wear a bullet proof vest, as a tow truck driver!
Wow I can't believe that maintenance guy! Great job for keeping your cool even after he spoke to your coworker on the phone like that. You take much in your stride good job mate. Stay safe
She’s got two ears and don’t want to listen. They stole that tag off another car and are trying to get over on Johnny.
Too many bosses, or those who thought they were...You handled it great, as usual.
I love when people try and get you to repeat yourself over and over hoping you'll say something different. Also they need to give you cards with the pick up info.
