Yep, you can sue them for not having paid you. I had the same thing happen with Dunkin Donuts. I called corporate several times and they didn't do anything. I told my dad and he got mad as fuck and basically went in and verbally assaulted the manager. My check was in the mail the next week.
+LoeyLane I work for Dunkin here in NY tell your friend definitely dont let them do her wrong. They have no reason to "not" pay her. Every Dunkin has cameras keep calling to get paid. I know here in my Dunkin they will only "not" pay you and keep your check if your caught stealing but then they will make you sign a paper saying that their not going to pay you.
Dunkin is the most shady place. A few months after I quit, my mom texted me and told me my manager got arrested for stealing from them. So idk if they weren't paying her either and she decided to get some vigilante revenge or what. But yeah, tell your friend to get aggressive. They're not going to want bad publicity so if she has to start shit or the call the BBB, just be fuckin savage. This why I am forever loyal to Starbucks.
I remember when I was a teen.....my first restaurant job,....it was practice to "steam" the buns in a steamer....being new, and young, I was extremely nervous and dropped the bun on the floor. I picked it up, threw it in the trash and turned around to see the dreaded "Manager" staring at me. She got that bun OUT of the trash and said "we do NOT waste food here......" Ewwwwwww!!!!
+De Ross Maybe she was an immigrant, my last boss was, he was vietemese & was very very serious about not wasting food & would take it personally. I don't know much about his story but I'm assuming he didn't have a lot to eat at one point.
You're worried about them suing you? You can sue them for not paying you, it's illegal for them to have not to, I understand why you didn't chase, but like you said, you worked hard for them and you went through uncomfortable situations. It's not too late.
I worked at McDonald's for about 1 month during college, and the shift manager made me really uncomfortable. He was a few years older than me. He was engaged to a woman who worked there too, and they had 1 or 2 small kids together. He flirted with me just a little at first, which I just shrugged off, but then he would start to brush his hand against my butt. The first time he did it I thought it was an honest mistake, but then he did it a few more times and by the end of my shift I was ready to cry. The next day I called in sick and said I quit--which I still feel kind of shitty about, it was crazy short notice and I never gave an explanation. Now I regret not reporting what happened, there's no doubt in my mind he did it to others.
+Jenna Winters I agree. I keep thinking about how I would tear that manager up one side and down another. I can't stand people who take advantage of others (among other things)
Getting a new job is a terrible thing. It makes you feel so alienated because you don't know anyone there, you're not used to the work environment, etc. When you get a new job, you try to hold onto it as much as you can so you don't have to go through that alienated feeling again.
any restaurant who condones stalking the health inspector, obviously has something to be worried about sanitation-wise. My family owns a restaurant and the health inspector literally eats there on his days off because he knows the food is really good and he knows our place is always clean. but still, that's some crazy shit. I wouldn't have put up with that no matter how much I needed the money. if someone asked me to literally stalk someone, I'd quit right then and there. and the fact that she asked you to watch her kids, that was just plain inappropriate. she was obviously crazy. I honestly would have reported her to the better business Bureau. And I would not let them just not pay me if I worked 40+ hours. No. That's ridiculous.
A friend of mine worked at TJ Max for a week and when she went to pick up her check she didn't get paid and was told that she didn't even work for them. Basically all record of her being there vanished
I'm 19 and haven't had a "real" job yet bc I'm trying to get on my feet in college and the job hunt in my area is tough, and man this kinda stuff scares the hell out of me! Made me feel sooo anxious watching this, it's scary enough to think about dealing with long hours and weird customers without having to also worry about crazy bosses and corporate shadiness! But it also made me feel a little more prepared in case anything like this ever does happen to me... So thanks for sharing this scary experience!
I had an issue at another job in the past. I just called the labor board. Didn't wait. Didn't warn them. If they are doing wrong, they need to be corrected.
I'm literally now, grabbing a bunch of snack, And I'm just eating And bingewatching ALL your storytimes, scrolling way back XD this is so entertaining, like it's so bad that you are getting all this crazy things in your life But I think we can all learn from your experiences!
Hey I really appreciate your honesty in this video. I worked for Brandy Melville for four months before ever seeing a paycheck. I only got paid because another girl in the same situation had her parents call cooperate and hound them. I wish I had seen this and been more direct back then. Love ya!!!
my old boss used to do stuff like that too. we worked in a group home and she'd call other homes when state was in town so she'd know when to expect them at our house, so she could go in and tell us we had to lie and threaten our jobs if we didn't do what she wanted. some bosses are beyond terrible
no honey, I would've out my foot down if she got mad at me for quiting because of the fked up sht I had to do that WASN'T apart of the job description. Would've cursed her out and then report her. Because that's some bs.
Please make more of these! I just love the sound of your voice and you are super entertaining :) I'm sorry bout what happened btw but it's really kind of you to share your story to help others ❤️
When she said Fridays are really busy in the food industry, I was like, "Honey, you're lucky you didn't work a Sunday". 😂😂 Loved this story because I can relate to having a sh*tty manager while being a waitress.
I worked at a little local retail store for 3 years and it was the worst three years I have had. I was getting paid for 40 hours a week when I was working over 80 hours a week. I only had 1 week off every year. They wouldn't let me restock the inventory (that was my job) and would blame me for not buying any. It was absolutely horrible.
In the UK we have this company called ACAS and its basically a company that deals with work related issues. You can call them and they can give you advice on certain issues that you have. If there is something similar to that in the states you should definitely give them a call and see if there is anything you can still do. You worked hard for that money in an extremely uncomfortable environment you deserve to get the money that you are rightfully owed.
I used to serve/bartend and I am extremely sorry this happened to you! I feel like you have such an amazing personality that you would make a great server! Thanks for this story!
You're too nice 😩 lol there is only so much shit you can take from people. That's why I'm so honest and people know not to say or do dumb shit close to me.
Loey you look so familiar! I know you've moved around a lot because your husband. I live in a small military town in Northern California. And I swear to god I remember you baby sitting me when I was younger 😂😂 like your voice and everything sound so familiar.
Let me just say... the fact that she has a picture of the car and license plate of the health inspector means that someone higher than her, either your restaurant owner or your boss's boss obtained the photo to send to her.. so sometimes the higher ups are just as shady as the boss.
My ex-job did the same thing to me (not paying me for time owed). They told me I had like 50 hours of earned time to use, and then miraculously the time disappeared when I quit. So I contacted the company & made them give me the money back. Downside is the hours weren't in the system (the manager cooked the books and made it look like I had no hours of money to be given), but the fact I called them out was enough for me.
I am not a sue happy person, but honestly you should have sued. I would have raised hell if I didn't get paid for being on the clock. The labor department could have provided you a lawyer. Omg this story made me so angry...
I'm not sure why but I really love your makeup in this video. It looks so natural and makes you look so pretty. I've watched many of your videos but so far like the look on this one the best.
+jubsuxx I would just report their butts- make sure you have proof of the hours worked and everything.. make copies of the time sheets/ and or anything that could be helpful. they will try to deny that you worked the hours you claim you did.
in california the more you wait the less eligible you are to get your money. I was trying to be nice to the employer by giving them time and not taking them to court right away. BIG MISTAKE I got cheated out of more than $3,000!
Thank you for sharing your story! I had something similar happen to me. I'm also a military spouse and had been looking for a job for months and finally found one. It was a good paying job too, didn't have benefits but that was ok. It was full time, I was happy. Things started to get difficult, but I really needed the money. 18 months later I had been working full time, but my hours were cut to half time. I was able to get a second job so that I could compensate for the loss of hours on my first job. When I received my check in the next pay period, I was not paid for hours that I worked, so I called management, turns out I had been given layoff, but my supervisor never bothered to tell me. By this time, I had worked almost three weeks that I was never paid for. I sued the company, I won.... Three years later they still have not paid me... And my husband was sent to another duty station. I still am furious as to how I was treated!
I had a very similar situation. I was 16 and thankfully my amazing parents helped me get the money owned to me finally. Its always awful when things like this happen but it's definitely worth sticking up for yourself.
This story is going to a long one so fair warning..... The last job that I had was absolutely horrible. I had a manager who was verbally and emotionally abusive. She would cuss me out and tell me that I was the worst person ever she was a 40 something-year-old and I'm 18 and was the youngest in this department by at least 5 years. I would be scheduled to work all by myself doing the closing shift, a job that usually requires 4 to 5 people so instead of being able to go home at 11pm when my shift ended I would often be there till 2am. If I left without the job being a 100% done I would be yelled at the next time I came in and threatened with being fired and because I was trying to save for college that threat was really bad. She was so bad that I would have panic attacks about having to go to work every day that I had to work with her. I worked in a department for a larger company so I kept a record of everything that was going on the abuse, and overtime, and the fact that she would deny me my breaks and sometimes even meal hour and took it to the higher ups along with reports from one of my coworkers who was experiencing similar treatment and reports from other coworkers and even customers who had seen the treatment and nothing ever happened. The worst thing though that I finally quit over was this... The fryers that we used were very old and had several problems including dropping all of the oil onto the floor which happened twice in the 2 almost 3 months I was there. I was working next to the fryers when it started to have one of its issues and when this happens we are supposed to shut off the heat and shut it down completely so I reached down to hit the buttons and my hand was instantly covered in boiling hot oil that was coming from them. Naturally, I needed to leave, my plastic glove had melted to my hand and blisters were already forming. My mom happened to be at the store at this time so I was going to have her take me to the Insta Care that was right across from this store. I let my manager know that I had to go clock out that I had been injured badly from the fryer and she told me that I wasn't allowed to leave the store or she would make sure that I was terminated. I ignored her took off my apron and threw my one glove out grabbed my stuff and left. My older sister worked in the department next to mine and had already called my mom so she was waiting for me to leave. My manager proceeded to follow us out to the parking lot threating to fire me while I'm holding my severely burnt hand with tears running down my face. I ended up with 2nd degree burns to my right hand from my fingers to about 1/3 of the way up my forearm. I filled a complaint about that and an injury report and was told that I was injured because of my own stupidity. The next day I was supposed to close by myself again I quiet that same day which meant the manager had to work the closing shift by herself instead, so I guess I kinda got back at her a bit. (The manager still workers there despite losing 1/2 of the staff I worked with because of mine or simmilar instances and the absurded amount of reports filled against her. The turn out rate for that department is 1 to 2 months clearly something is wrong)
Loey! This is way more than being just a push over or naive...this is insanity! People behave that way because they get away with it just like your boss did. If you find it hard to stick up for yourself at least stick up for the next poor soul who probably got hired into the exact same situation after you left.
Your story is too common. I have had bosses ask me to do illegal things many times. I have always refused. I now know that it's best to quit right away if they even ask - you will eventually have to anyway.
This happened to me too, I worked 40 hours at popeyes at age 15 (totally illegal to hire me at this age) and it was horrendous. I was only scheduled until Friday and had the weekend off that week then the manager came up to me and told me he's putting me on for the weekend out of nowhere. So at this point I decided to quit. When I went in to get my working papers and my check, he then tried to say I was never an employee and he did not have my working papers nor know who I was? but he was literally the one that hired me! It was a terrible experience and I went through all of that stress without getting paid.
If you aren't aware, you can file a claim for unpaid wages through the department of labor. If they are being douches and refusing to pay you, let them deal with the claim from the department of labor! They'll enjoy that ;)
Oh babe, know exactly how you feel. I've had some crazy experiences in previous jobs, generally the reasons I quit. Well done for getting out but maybe see if you can get something back for it or maybe report them now? Not sure what the laws are where you are. This is all so odd and shady. Great advise that you gave at the end :)
Starbucks was a bad place to work too. My coworkers would call me on my day off and say "come in now" and I have a kid so I would say "I can't cover you, I'm sorry. I don't have a babysitter" and they would constantly ride my ass and talk shit about me like oh she's using her kid as an excuse to not work so I quit after like three months of that. That in itself pissed me off, so if I went through what you went through, I would've been LIVID
My first time working as a waitress I only lasted a week as well. I worked at a super fancy 5* hotel and when I got offered the job I got told I was going to be working behind the pool bar, I'd never been a waitress before and same as you I'm really clumsy haha, so I thought this job would be really simple and literally just selling sandwiches and bottles of Coke but when I got there for my first day I got put on the main bar in the hotel lobby. I did not have the right footwear on or anything for it (not expecting to be waitressing I was wearing just cute little flats) and by the time I went home at night my feet were CUT TO SHREDS, I could not walk without being in pain for the entirety of my experience there. So anyway, on my first shift I was about 8hours into it and my manager asks me if I can work to 4am. I asked when I got offered the job if I would be working nights and got told no and this would also mean my first shift was 13hours long but it was my first day so no way could I say no. This happened every single night I was there. I was also scheduled to work on a Saturday (I had another job on a Saturday and had made it clear when I accepted the job that I couldn't work weekends) and when I questioned it, I was told that I couldn't get out of it and had to work it otherwise they would replace me. Second shift my manager was trying out new cocktails he'd been making and was so drunk by the end of it that he fell down the stairs. Third day I got screamed at and threatened to be fired because I wasn't wearing the appropriate uniform (all they had ever told me was a white shirt and black trousers!). Fourth day I came in and was put on an open by myself, I didn't even have a till card by this point so couldn't take any orders so I had to go looking for someone who's card I could borrow, then got penalised for not being at the bar. Fifth day was the worst, it was a Friday night and a lot of people would come and pre-drink at the bar before going on to the hotels club, so I was waiting my section fine and a group of about 10 old men come in. So I'm serving them and one bloke says, "So how much to get you to sit on my lap then?" while he's tapping his knee and I was only 18 at this point and felt supppppper uncomfortable but didn't really know what to say so just ignored it. I went back to give them their drinks and he physically grabbed my hips and tried to put me on his lap, I said sorry sir I don't think that's appropriate and they all just laughed at me and he threw a £50 note at me and told me his room number. I immediately told my manager and my response was, "put the £50 in the till." No, I'll speak to them or no, I'll kick them out. I had to continue waiting on them and when I went back to serve them another bloke was saying even more inappropriate things so I just said again, "Sorry sir I'm only 18 this really isn't appropriate," to which he responded, "yeah you're younger than my granddaughter. So what?" I was so upset that I went back behind the bar and told my friend what had happened to which my manager came over and shouted at me saying, "if you speak about customers negatively again I will fire your ass on the spot. Now get from behind my bar, you're not allowed here." I just burst into tears, went into the staff room, got my stuff and marched my ass out of there. The only plus of the whole experience was that they had fucked up with my wages and ended up over paying me by £200. I will never waitress again haha.
Thank you so much for the videos you post! I find myself watching something new of you every day and enjoying it. I wish you nothing but the best! Keep up with the positiveness!
At my dad's job he makes pizza. he got paid $14 for his work. a few weeks ago he told me that he does extra work and doesn't get paid what he's supposed to. he has to move produce, clean, ect. he fought with the owner because it's not fair that my dad would do work that others could do. he ended up getting $15 an hour. that still hasn't changed the fact that he still does extra work.
I'm new to the channel and the stories weren't bad, I almost subscribed and told my bestie about you but the amount of advertisements.. In the beginning, the middle! It's the same as watching TV, so never mind. Good material though, I wish you and your channel the best!
Lol, everyone is trying to guess which restaurant it is. The winner should receive dinner with Loey!!! But not at the restaurant that she's talking about. LOL
I was hired as a waitress /bartender 3rd shift. after a few days my boss would go up stairs in a random motel room to sleep and he'd ask me to come wake him to cook for others.. awkward
My mom had a boss named Larry. His mother made me a doll and he gave me a Tinkerbell Busy Book. It was a small job, only like 8 people worked at the office. But she had chairs thrown, yelled at, and cursed a lot. Nice to me but horrible to my mother. I was only like 7, I am now 12 and like wow idk
I just had a similar situation. I got hired and worked for a day and they told me how great of a job I did but they never paid me and never called me back. :|
Are you kidding me? She asked you to stalk a health inspector and then thought it was okay to ask you to babysit?! This is absolutely insane. She needed to be reported to corporate.
lol funny thing is that me and my parents and grandmother saw a mouse in texas roadhouse. even the table behind us. heck even the waitress wanted to leave as we were leaving.
This story is insane. I hope that couple is no longer in charge of that restaurant. But funny coincidence: I used to work as a hostess/waitress at a restaurant (local not a chain restaurant) that was owned by a man I'm pretty sure was either from Iraq or Iran and his white wife and was right next to a hotel. But this is in South Carolina so it's not the same one but some similarities. I hate that that happened to you and so glad that you got out of that situation relatively soon.
I'm going to guess Denny's. I was a server for many years, and there are lots of crazy things that happen in this industry. Glad to be done with school and in a very professional career now!
you lie Denny's is a perfect restaurant so stop trying to blame it on other restaurant's who knows you could be the manager and are doing that you could just not like Denny's.
Just curious about the career? How'd you get it and what is it? Because I'm wondering how the heck people go to make a living when there's debt involved and stuff. I'm kinda scared of adult life and Idk what to do about all that....
@@watchinvidzwatchinvidz7691 large cooperation intentionally make ppl suffer cuz for them it's cheaper and less work and they don't give two shits about ppl
all you had to do was tell them you were going to small claims court if you didn't get your money... trust me they would give in, they do not want a judge hearing the truth. and if they called your bluff, just do small claims court you will win. I had been screwed over as well and went to small claims court too, it's worth it.
I had this happen to me recently. Owner was notorious for being cheap. I was earning minimum wage for $15/hr office work, but I needed the job. When I found another one, I gave my 2 weeks notice and the owner "forgot" my paycheck on payday but still expected me to work the final week and she would mail me both checks. I quit on the spot. She was a lot like this manager. I mean, she paid freelance writers $35/story. Any freelance writers know how little that is? That's LESS than peanuts. I was glad to be out of there; haven't looked back.
Yep, you can sue them for not having paid you. I had the same thing happen with Dunkin Donuts. I called corporate several times and they didn't do anything. I told my dad and he got mad as fuck and basically went in and verbally assaulted the manager. My check was in the mail the next week.
+LoeyLane I work for Dunkin here in NY tell your friend definitely dont let them do her wrong. They have no reason to "not" pay her. Every Dunkin has cameras keep calling to get paid.

Dunkin is the most shady place. A few months after I quit, my mom texted me and told me my manager got arrested for stealing from them. So idk if they weren't paying her either and she decided to get some vigilante revenge or what. But yeah, tell your friend to get aggressive. They're not going to want bad publicity so if she has to start shit or the call the BBB, just be fuckin savage.
This why I am forever loyal to Starbucks.
+Sarah Gleason omg yes Dunkin is the fucking worst I used to work there and I had a bad experience the boss was bat shit crazy
+Sarah Gleason good things worked out ya you should verbally assault them because your angry and get your check
Some dunkin donuts managers are fucking assholes.
Anyone else on a LoeyLane spree?
Yessss😂💘
+Kittycat-Kitcat Beasley I totally am :3
yassss
meeeeeeee
Yup.

I picked it up, threw it in the trash and turned around to see the dreaded "Manager" staring at me. She got that bun OUT of the trash and said "we do NOT waste food here......" Ewwwwwww!!!!
God... I mean, when your serving it to other people? wow... I thought I had s3cond© rule problems because I only stopped eating mnms of the ground when I turned 9...
+Not my name I Know!!! Sickening.....right? Ick!
+De Ross Maybe she was an immigrant, my last boss was, he was vietemese & was very very serious about not wasting food & would take it personally. I don't know much about his story but I'm assuming he didn't have a lot to eat at one point.
+De Ross wtf? ew...
+Shaylaszone my best friend is Veit Namese and she has the same problem with her parents.. I find that a little weird tbh
You're worried about them suing you? You can sue them for not paying you, it's illegal for them to have not to, I understand why you didn't chase, but like you said, you worked hard for them and you went through uncomfortable situations. It's not too late.
You can still sue there is no satiated limit on that ; speak up someone else in that same chain must be going through the same thing
They can't do anything, she didn't do anything illegal.
+BeYOUtiful Makeup they can try to sue her for "slander," although I think that's ridiculous
+Makayla's Vanity ...As long as this is ALL true...
its never too late

He should not be touching you like that you should've called the police for that type of behavior too
I would of reported it and then quit.
I would have reported it too that’s awful!!!
He disgusts me
This has to be 100% Applebee's
That's what I thought!
It is thats exactly what i thought! Their all over kansas
that's what I was thinking!
OMGIWASTHINKINGTHAT
Lmao! That was my first thought too, Chili's being the immediate second. 😂
This is making my blood fucking BOIL.
mine too
Yep. I am irrationally LIVID after watching this. I'm fkn grinding my teeth.
+Jenna Winters I agree. I keep thinking about how I would tear that manager up one side and down another. I can't stand people who take advantage of others (among other things)
Sameeeeee
Melodica loey is wayyy to sweet to do that❤ but I would do the same!!

YES LOVE STORY TIME VIDEOS!

but still, that's some crazy shit. I wouldn't have put up with that no matter how much I needed the money. if someone asked me to literally stalk someone, I'd quit right then and there. and the fact that she asked you to watch her kids, that was just plain inappropriate. she was obviously crazy.
I honestly would have reported her to the better business Bureau. And I would not let them just not pay me if I worked 40+ hours. No. That's ridiculous.
Raina Townsend What's the restaurant called
They basically hired you to not get paid.
A friend of mine worked at TJ Max for a week and when she went to pick up her check she didn't get paid and was told that she didn't even work for them. Basically all record of her being there vanished
Cher from Clueless! That is who you look like!
.... no, not really
I see the resemblance!
I see it... her facial expressions, her hair, the plaid... oh, and her big smile!
Omg yessss! Especially with the yellow plaid!
omg yesss!!!when she smiles😍
I'm 19 and haven't had a "real" job yet bc I'm trying to get on my feet in college and the job hunt in my area is tough, and man this kinda stuff scares the hell out of me! Made me feel sooo anxious watching this, it's scary enough to think about dealing with long hours and weird customers without having to also worry about crazy bosses and corporate shadiness! But it also made me feel a little more prepared in case anything like this ever does happen to me... So thanks for sharing this scary experience!
this was a crazed story! I can fully believe it; any one who has done retail or restaurant work has had crazy sh** go down.
this video made me so angry and I wasn't even the one who went through this
I had an issue at another job in the past. I just called the labor board. Didn't wait. Didn't warn them. If they are doing wrong, they need to be corrected.
Alyssa Romano so what happened?
I love how respectfully she is. a lot of story time UA-cam's are dramatic and rude af, but she is so genuine
I immediately thought Applebee's..🤔
right i thought the same thing
Secondly Chili's
I'm literally now, grabbing a bunch of snack, And I'm just eating And bingewatching ALL your storytimes, scrolling way back XD this is so entertaining, like it's so bad that you are getting all this crazy things in your life But I think we can all learn from your experiences!
I loved this! the way you tell stories is really engrossing, and I would love a million more story time videos please!
Applebee's, Chili's, Ruby Tuesday, and Cheddar's are the ones coming to mind as I'm listening to this story.
" I need you to be a team player" Lool um girl bye. She was crazy, great storytime
Hey I really appreciate your honesty in this video. I worked for Brandy Melville for four months before ever seeing a paycheck. I only got paid because another girl in the same situation had her parents call cooperate and hound them. I wish I had seen this and been more direct back then. Love ya!!!
you need to learn to say no
+Alexia Scott Right??
No
Exactly, like I am a complete pushover but I would never have said yes lmao
I'm the same way tho, I can't say no...its horrible
Yea sometimes it's really hard to tell someone no
my old boss used to do stuff like that too. we worked in a group home and she'd call other homes when state was in town so she'd know when to expect them at our house, so she could go in and tell us we had to lie and threaten our jobs if we didn't do what she wanted. some bosses are beyond terrible
wtf she just left her kids in the car????? this lady is crazy
wow this girl is so good not and not only creepy but she makes nice life lessons out the creepy videos which is good I love that
no honey, I would've out my foot down if she got mad at me for quiting because of the fked up sht I had to do that WASN'T apart of the job description. Would've cursed her out and then report her. Because that's some bs.
*put
PREACH
😂
Please make more of these! I just love the sound of your voice and you are super entertaining :) I'm sorry bout what happened btw but it's really kind of you to share your story to help others ❤️
When she said Fridays are really busy in the food industry, I was like, "Honey, you're lucky you didn't work a Sunday". 😂😂 Loved this story because I can relate to having a sh*tty manager while being a waitress.
I worked at a little local retail store for 3 years and it was the worst three years I have had. I was getting paid for 40 hours a week when I was working over 80 hours a week. I only had 1 week off every year. They wouldn't let me restock the inventory (that was my job) and would blame me for not buying any. It was absolutely horrible.
In the UK we have this company called ACAS and its basically a company that deals with work related issues. You can call them and they can give you advice on certain issues that you have. If there is something similar to that in the states you should definitely give them a call and see if there is anything you can still do. You worked hard for that money in an extremely uncomfortable environment you deserve to get the money that you are rightfully owed.
I used to serve/bartend and I am extremely sorry this happened to you! I feel like you have such an amazing personality that you would make a great server! Thanks for this story!
You're too nice 😩 lol there is only so much shit you can take from people. That's why I'm so honest and people know not to say or do dumb shit close to me.
*Fanny packs for waitresses*
Apron
SaberTooth TIger - No, she means a legit fanny pack type thing, I've seen waitresses using them.
Lisa The Duck they’re called aprons tho
Loey you look so familiar! I know you've moved around a lot because your husband. I live in a small military town in Northern California. And I swear to god I remember you baby sitting me when I was younger 😂😂 like your voice and everything sound so familiar.
Maddie Dude I'm from Northern California too! Sacramento :)
me too :)
Salem Rose Films rly???? I wonder if it really was her!!?!
How do you know where i live thank you very much. I dont need others to tell me where I live
Nicole Marie nice!
This story sounds like a sitcom script!!! Unbelievable! You have the patience of Job. I would have reported her sooooo fast. No doubt!!❤️
The shirt screams Cher from Clueless
I'm not even kidding that voice thing you did scared the shit out of me😂😂 xx
Let me just say... the fact that she has a picture of the car and license plate of the health inspector means that someone higher than her, either your restaurant owner or your boss's boss obtained the photo to send to her.. so sometimes the higher ups are just as shady as the boss.
When the video was about to start I was like wow she looks like a goddess. You always look pretty. The curled hair just made you look even prettier :)
I loved this storytime! Please do more!! :D
My ex-job did the same thing to me (not paying me for time owed). They told me I had like 50 hours of earned time to use, and then miraculously the time disappeared when I quit. So I contacted the company & made them give me the money back. Downside is the hours weren't in the system (the manager cooked the books and made it look like I had no hours of money to be given), but the fact I called them out was enough for me.
I am not a sue happy person, but honestly you should have sued. I would have raised hell if I didn't get paid for being on the clock. The labor department could have provided you a lawyer. Omg this story made me so angry...
I'm not sure why but I really love your makeup in this video. It looks so natural and makes you look so pretty. I've watched many of your videos but so far like the look on this one the best.
Im going through the same thing with my job! I wasnt paid for 30 hours of work!
+jubsuxx I would just report their butts- make sure you have proof of the hours worked and everything.. make copies of the time sheets/ and or anything that could be helpful. they will try to deny that you worked the hours you claim you did.
in california the more you wait the less eligible you are to get your money. I was trying to be nice to the employer by giving them time and not taking them to court right away. BIG MISTAKE I got cheated out of more than $3,000!
+nnjddr cool
Threaten to sue them lol

Thank you for sharing your story! I had something similar happen to me. I'm also a military spouse and had been looking for a job for months and finally found one. It was a good paying job too, didn't have benefits but that was ok. It was full time, I was happy. Things started to get difficult, but I really needed the money. 18 months later I had been working full time, but my hours were cut to half time. I was able to get a second job so that I could compensate for the loss of hours on my first job. When I received my check in the next pay period, I was not paid for hours that I worked, so I called management, turns out I had been given layoff, but my supervisor never bothered to tell me. By this time, I had worked almost three weeks that I was never paid for. I sued the company, I won.... Three years later they still have not paid me... And my husband was sent to another duty station. I still am furious as to how I was treated!
Yeeeeees 'story video' and hauls are my favorites!!!!!!! I L💙VE YOU L❤️EY!!!!!!
Finally a video where she isnt trying to sell us something. Love the hair
What. A. PSYCHO! I thought I'd had some horrible bosses, but damn that's NUTS!!!
I had a very similar situation. I was 16 and thankfully my amazing parents helped me get the money owned to me finally. Its always awful when things like this happen but it's definitely worth sticking up for yourself.
This makes me mad just listening to it! I had a few shitty jobs so I know how nervewrecking it is
LMBO! ! ! ! ! ! The voice she used for the whole watch the kids bit.
This story is going to a long one so fair warning..... The last job that I had was absolutely horrible. I had a manager who was verbally and emotionally abusive. She would cuss me out and tell me that I was the worst person ever she was a 40 something-year-old and I'm 18 and was the youngest in this department by at least 5 years. I would be scheduled to work all by myself doing the closing shift, a job that usually requires 4 to 5 people so instead of being able to go home at 11pm when my shift ended I would often be there till 2am. If I left without the job being a 100% done I would be yelled at the next time I came in and threatened with being fired and because I was trying to save for college that threat was really bad. She was so bad that I would have panic attacks about having to go to work every day that I had to work with her. I worked in a department for a larger company so I kept a record of everything that was going on the abuse, and overtime, and the fact that she would deny me my breaks and sometimes even meal hour and took it to the higher ups along with reports from one of my coworkers who was experiencing similar treatment and reports from other coworkers and even customers who had seen the treatment and nothing ever happened. The worst thing though that I finally quit over was this... The fryers that we used were very old and had several problems including dropping all of the oil onto the floor which happened twice in the 2 almost 3 months I was there. I was working next to the fryers when it started to have one of its issues and when this happens we are supposed to shut off the heat and shut it down completely so I reached down to hit the buttons and my hand was instantly covered in boiling hot oil that was coming from them. Naturally, I needed to leave, my plastic glove had melted to my hand and blisters were already forming. My mom happened to be at the store at this time so I was going to have her take me to the Insta Care that was right across from this store. I let my manager know that I had to go clock out that I had been injured badly from the fryer and she told me that I wasn't allowed to leave the store or she would make sure that I was terminated. I ignored her took off my apron and threw my one glove out grabbed my stuff and left. My older sister worked in the department next to mine and had already called my mom so she was waiting for me to leave. My manager proceeded to follow us out to the parking lot threating to fire me while I'm holding my severely burnt hand with tears running down my face. I ended up with 2nd degree burns to my right hand from my fingers to about 1/3 of the way up my forearm. I filled a complaint about that and an injury report and was told that I was injured because of my own stupidity. The next day I was supposed to close by myself again I quiet that same day which meant the manager had to work the closing shift by herself instead, so I guess I kinda got back at her a bit. (The manager still workers there despite losing 1/2 of the staff I worked with because of mine or simmilar instances and the absurded amount of reports filled against her. The turn out rate for that department is 1 to 2 months clearly something is wrong)
hi loey, please make more storytime videos. ur storytime videos are the ABSOLUTE BEST on youtube and i love watching them so much :) much love
you should've consulted a employment lawyer. they owe you a ton of money.
Loey! This is way more than being just a push over or naive...this is insanity! People behave that way because they get away with it just like your boss did. If you find it hard to stick up for yourself at least stick up for the next poor soul who probably got hired into the exact same situation after you left.
That was DEFINITELY an Olive Garden or red lobster
Kala K how r u so sure ? Xx
Kala K I don't think so because she said something about breakfasts too
Leyla Contreras IT'S FUCKING DENNYS
Those places open at 11am, so it wouldn’t make sense when she said 8 an shift. So any D grade place that serves breakfast is more likely.
Oh my gosh i just can't get over how much i love your hair!!! It flows so perfectly and i just love it.
Your story is too common. I have had bosses ask me to do illegal things many times. I have always refused. I now know that it's best to quit right away if they even ask - you will eventually have to anyway.
This happened to me too, I worked 40 hours at popeyes at age 15 (totally illegal to hire me at this age) and it was horrendous. I was only scheduled until Friday and had the weekend off that week then the manager came up to me and told me he's putting me on for the weekend out of nowhere. So at this point I decided to quit. When I went in to get my working papers and my check, he then tried to say I was never an employee and he did not have my working papers nor know who I was? but he was literally the one that hired me! It was a terrible experience and I went through all of that stress without getting paid.
If you aren't aware, you can file a claim for unpaid wages through the department of labor. If they are being douches and refusing to pay you, let them deal with the claim from the department of labor! They'll enjoy that ;)
Oh babe, know exactly how you feel. I've had some crazy experiences in previous jobs, generally the reasons I quit. Well done for getting out but maybe see if you can get something back for it or maybe report them now? Not sure what the laws are where you are. This is all so odd and shady. Great advise that you gave at the end :)
Starbucks was a bad place to work too. My coworkers would call me on my day off and say "come in now" and I have a kid so I would say "I can't cover you, I'm sorry. I don't have a babysitter" and they would constantly ride my ass and talk shit about me like oh she's using her kid as an excuse to not work so I quit after like three months of that. That in itself pissed me off, so if I went through what you went through, I would've been LIVID
I would've talked shit back at their face oml I would've been so pissed.
You are the sweetest most sincere person I've seen on UA-cam your sweetness is so calming had to subscribe! 😄
My first time working as a waitress I only lasted a week as well. I worked at a super fancy 5* hotel and when I got offered the job I got told I was going to be working behind the pool bar, I'd never been a waitress before and same as you I'm really clumsy haha, so I thought this job would be really simple and literally just selling sandwiches and bottles of Coke but when I got there for my first day I got put on the main bar in the hotel lobby. I did not have the right footwear on or anything for it (not expecting to be waitressing I was wearing just cute little flats) and by the time I went home at night my feet were CUT TO SHREDS, I could not walk without being in pain for the entirety of my experience there. So anyway, on my first shift I was about 8hours into it and my manager asks me if I can work to 4am. I asked when I got offered the job if I would be working nights and got told no and this would also mean my first shift was 13hours long but it was my first day so no way could I say no. This happened every single night I was there. I was also scheduled to work on a Saturday (I had another job on a Saturday and had made it clear when I accepted the job that I couldn't work weekends) and when I questioned it, I was told that I couldn't get out of it and had to work it otherwise they would replace me. Second shift my manager was trying out new cocktails he'd been making and was so drunk by the end of it that he fell down the stairs. Third day I got screamed at and threatened to be fired because I wasn't wearing the appropriate uniform (all they had ever told me was a white shirt and black trousers!). Fourth day I came in and was put on an open by myself, I didn't even have a till card by this point so couldn't take any orders so I had to go looking for someone who's card I could borrow, then got penalised for not being at the bar. Fifth day was the worst, it was a Friday night and a lot of people would come and pre-drink at the bar before going on to the hotels club, so I was waiting my section fine and a group of about 10 old men come in. So I'm serving them and one bloke says, "So how much to get you to sit on my lap then?" while he's tapping his knee and I was only 18 at this point and felt supppppper uncomfortable but didn't really know what to say so just ignored it. I went back to give them their drinks and he physically grabbed my hips and tried to put me on his lap, I said sorry sir I don't think that's appropriate and they all just laughed at me and he threw a £50 note at me and told me his room number. I immediately told my manager and my response was, "put the £50 in the till." No, I'll speak to them or no, I'll kick them out. I had to continue waiting on them and when I went back to serve them another bloke was saying even more inappropriate things so I just said again, "Sorry sir I'm only 18 this really isn't appropriate," to which he responded, "yeah you're younger than my granddaughter. So what?" I was so upset that I went back behind the bar and told my friend what had happened to which my manager came over and shouted at me saying, "if you speak about customers negatively again I will fire your ass on the spot. Now get from behind my bar, you're not allowed here." I just burst into tears, went into the staff room, got my stuff and marched my ass out of there.
The only plus of the whole experience was that they had fucked up with my wages and ended up over paying me by £200. I will never waitress again haha.
Thank you so much for the videos you post! I find myself watching something new of you every day and enjoying it. I wish you nothing but the best! Keep up with the positiveness!
At my dad's job he makes pizza. he got paid $14 for his work. a few weeks ago he told me that he does extra work and doesn't get paid what he's supposed to. he has to move produce, clean, ect. he fought with the owner because it's not fair that my dad would do work that others could do. he ended up getting $15 an hour. that still hasn't changed the fact that he still does extra work.
I'm new to the channel and the stories weren't bad, I almost subscribed and told my bestie about you but the amount of advertisements.. In the beginning, the middle! It's the same as watching TV, so never mind. Good material though, I wish you and your channel the best!
Lol, everyone is trying to guess which restaurant it is. The winner should receive dinner with Loey!!!
But not at the restaurant that she's talking about. LOL
You deserve 1,000,000 subs cuz you are the best UA-camr I've ever watched!
I was hired as a waitress /bartender 3rd shift. after a few days my boss would go up stairs in a random motel room to sleep and he'd ask me to come wake him to cook for others.. awkward
My mom had a boss named Larry. His mother made me a doll and he gave me a Tinkerbell Busy Book. It was a small job, only like 8 people worked at the office. But she had chairs thrown, yelled at, and cursed a lot. Nice to me but horrible to my mother. I was only like 7, I am now 12 and like wow idk
I'm so curious to know where she was working...
Sameeerr
+Ashley1epic marie callender's probably
+Kimberly En what about ihop? I just stayed by a hotel by ihop
+Alexis Childs uhm why?
+Alexis Childs what's ur problem
I'm so sorry this happened to you, you didn't deserve any of this. I hope your next job is better! love you❤️❤️
Yeah there would be a cold day in hell before I would've let them get away with that lol
xoxo_ babyb seriously I'm pissed and it didn't even happen to me
“Maybe you should *not* hit each other?” 😂😂
anyone else having loey lane marathon ❤️
It's like the manager was like testing you to see like how loyal you're to the chain. So weird.
I just had a similar situation. I got hired and worked for a day and they told me how great of a job I did but they never paid me and never called me back. :|
Ur my fav and only story time person
You really should say what the business is called to prevent other people falling into the same trap as you did.
Nah. This can happen, and does happen at other major restaurant chains. There’s no point in sharing other than to appease nosey people.
@@MamaBear_2629 OK Boomer
Are you kidding me? She asked you to stalk a health inspector and then thought it was okay to ask you to babysit?! This is absolutely insane. She needed to be reported to corporate.
All I could think was Texas Roadhouse!
Taylor Jorgensen lmao
Taylor Jorgensen right😂
SAME
Texas Roadhouse doesn't open at 8 am though lol the earliest they open is 11 am and that's only two or three days of the week.
lol funny thing is that me and my parents and grandmother saw a mouse in texas roadhouse. even the table behind us. heck even the waitress wanted to leave as we were leaving.
This story is insane. I hope that couple is no longer in charge of that restaurant. But funny coincidence: I used to work as a hostess/waitress at a restaurant (local not a chain restaurant) that was owned by a man I'm pretty sure was either from Iraq or Iran and his white wife and was right next to a hotel. But this is in South Carolina so it's not the same one but some similarities. I hate that that happened to you and so glad that you got out of that situation relatively soon.
I'm going to guess Denny's. I was a server for many years, and there are lots of crazy things that happen in this industry. Glad to be done with school and in a very professional career now!
I was thinking this too. Usually the Denny's restaurants are near hotels
Yes I use to work there! Weird AF! My manager also asked me to watch his daughter and would also deduct my hours!!!
you lie Denny's is a perfect restaurant so stop trying to blame it on other restaurant's who knows you could be the manager and are doing that you could just not like Denny's.
Just curious about the career? How'd you get it and what is it? Because I'm wondering how the heck people go to make a living when there's debt involved and stuff. I'm kinda scared of adult life and Idk what to do about all that....
Just found you and now I’m on a binge watch
The exact same thing happened to me at McDonalds:/ I ended up getting my paycheck because I told them I was gonna call the labor board
Same! I quit after 1 day. and it took 3 months to get my check
What the fuck is wrong with these companies
@@indybun64570 We are the problem don't fall for their B.S.
@@watchinvidzwatchinvidz7691 large cooperation intentionally make ppl suffer cuz for them it's cheaper and less work and they don't give two shits about ppl
just found your channel and i am seriously binge watching all your storytimes! you are so captivating and beautiful!
all you had to do was tell them you were going to small claims court if you didn't get your money... trust me they would give in, they do not want a judge hearing the truth. and if they called your bluff, just do small claims court you will win.
I had been screwed over as well and went to small claims court too, it's worth it.
I had this happen to me recently. Owner was notorious for being cheap. I was earning minimum wage for $15/hr office work, but I needed the job. When I found another one, I gave my 2 weeks notice and the owner "forgot" my paycheck on payday but still expected me to work the final week and she would mail me both checks. I quit on the spot. She was a lot like this manager. I mean, she paid freelance writers $35/story. Any freelance writers know how little that is? That's LESS than peanuts. I was glad to be out of there; haven't looked back.
love your story....because my boss is a craze woman
22 minutes, let me get my popcorn. yasss girl, I've been waiting for a storytime from you!!
MORE STORY TIME VIDEOS PLEASE ❤️
As a Texan I can say we would be honored to have you here :)
