a nose treat......
phil what do i do if i cannot smell
would love to get on Scentbird, but they only ship to US and Canada! any news on when they will start delivering to the UK?
but Phil, how do we snort it?
tbh speaking to the repair guy right away was the most sensible decision for numerous reasons. for one, why would you as a customer not tell him about a *HOLE* in your ceiling 😭 anything could’ve happened over the weekend lmao
Moo m kk moo k KK nook moo m moo moo mom moo moo m Mom mmm moo m moo mm mm mm mm m?😊 mom k moo mm moo no m?m?moo m moo moo m😊 Mom m Mom m moo moo moom m😊mm
Also what if the man needs a special tool or supplies to fix it? It's good to know early so that he can come properly prepared.
@@bunnihanniexactly! I've had many times where they've had to come back another day because they didn't have the right tool for the job
My go-to method in life is always to internalize guilt, so, YES BLAME ME FOR THAT TRAVESTY! Haha why do these events feel so relatable? I'm so sorry, Phil, we could have had a three-way.... caricature!!!! But seriously, you are a lovely human as well, thank you for your kind words!!
I hope you get better at dealing with guilt.
A big part of me wanted to say you know that isn't healthy right? but I'm 99% sure you know it already so I worded it like that
Edit: I hope that last part didn't make it sound like I didn't mean it because I really do mean it
Did this interaction just make my day? Absolutely!
Haha hi thomas! you just made my day
Loved the fruit vid btw🍑
Soon there will be a new Sanders Asides video overthinking this very thing 😅
two worlds colliding 🎉
Ngl the cartoonist pretending he didn't know who you were was the real problem 😭😂
honestly, that was a brutal betrayal
Yeah for sure! like, even if he was bad with faces/not really looking at them he literally heard them and responded so what was this dude's deal lmao
i feel like actually holding ur place in the queue is enough, cartoonist is definitely the ahole
YES
to play devil's advocate for a moment: he might not have been pretending? he could have just said 'yeah w/e' reflexively and not actually heard what they asked
"Everyday sunshine"
Phil: "I made a dude cry"
Best ironic thing about his story
Dude forgot his sunglasses
That’s what was going through my head the whole video 😆
Phil without a slit vs. Phil with a slit
Imagine the builder going home to his potential partner/roommate going "omg I feel so guilty cause I was really rude to a customer today who didn't do anything wrong, just because I was so stressed, am I a bad person?"
You are NOT the hole for telling a contractor about a problem.
NOT the hole for snitching about the hole!
honestly that‘s not your fault phil, if they mess up your NEWLY BUILT HOUSE while they’re supposed to be trying to fix(?) it, mentioning a literal HOLE in the CEILING of YOUR NEW HOUSE should be.. allowed- to say the least. sorry i’m really passionate about this lmao
Definitely! I also understand the builder's emotions but it wasn't Phil's fault. Just unfortunate timing and series of events.
@@lininacrowne1941Yea that's a no hole situation. Just feelings
The only hole here was the hole in the ceiling 😂
phil asks if he's the hole when it's his ceiling that is the real hole
as someone who Has had their ceiling collapse overnight from a small thing - no waiting.
Story time? 😭
My ex’s ceiling collapsed because I turned the bathroom tap too hard :( it caused a leak then the whole kitchen caved in
OMG it's NOT your fault he cried!!! If there is a hole in your ceiling that clearly looks like it can collapse, ofcourse you'll tell the builder. It's understandable that he was already stressed and so that one lil thing made him cry. Like it's one of those things where it was just a bad moment. But it's totally NOT your fault because you were simply "taking up space" and speaking up. You're good Phil 💗💗💗💗💗💗
Very well said! I agree with this 100 %
Phil making someone cry is such a weird mental image for me idk why
It feels like a parallel universe in which Phil is mean!🤣😳🤣😳🤣
@@piperjaycieand he has a slit on BOTH sides😭
especially a whole construction worker like damn 😭
a builder at that
i'm loving that most youtubers are out here scamming and grooming kids with no regrets but phil's here being like "i left the queue for five minutes and now i'm a terrible person :("
to be fair phil you are a notorious liar BUT the universe was against you for that last one
i love my little chats with phil
i dont talk back and he talks at me but i love it nonetheless
same!
Jonghyun
happy to see that im not the only one lol
@@caffeinatedxi love me some phandom shawols ❤️ love us
@@buttersoxkahh I’m a shawol too !!
not your fault at all but i feel so connected to the roof man it's like when you've had a bad week and it's been piling up and the smallest thing sets you off lmao
the builder crying was obviously because he had stuff going on (mental health, or just general life chaos) but his reaction came across as unprofessional tbh! you as the customer have no responsibility for a builder's emotional state, you had a hole in your ceiling and you mentioned it as you should've! in a professional situation the builder should've been like 'oh shit that's one for monday i'll make a note of it!'
that and he should've reassured the customer that the ceiling is not going to collapse on his computer and explained what's happening and how he will fix it. builder is more of a hole here, kinda emotionally manipulative
@steven.silver certainly not purposefully
you’re not the hole phil,dude just needs a hug
Phil switched to northern for dialogue and then did the entire remainder of the story in northern, that’s pretty cool tbh
you can take the man out of Rawtenstall but you can't take the Rawtenstall out of the man
luv
so comforting knowing that you’re not alone in waking up in a cold sweat after remembering how you were maybe kind of rude to someone years ago
Pretty much rule 1 is that you always immediately give notice if you notice damage that another party (e.g. maintenance or builders) may be considered liable for. This is partly for your own safety in case the damage could represent a legitimate hazard and partly so the other party can take actions so they won't be face potential liability.
With Phils awkward and clumsy nature he will never run out of content
he is a walking talking content farm
As someone who gets into bad guilt spirals (w intrusive thoughts about how I’m literally evil, it’s fun) I always try to remind myself that even if it did start w something legit, it doesn’t mean the whole spiral is accurate. ❤ love ya, Phil!
Real
hey phil!! I’m not a contractor but I do bounce around fixing things for a living and I think you were totally valid to bring up the ceiling hole! if it were (somehow) an easy fix, or something could’ve been done to minimize damage/danger before he left, it’s always good to mention it as early as possible. definitely better than not mentioning it and having your whole ceiling cave in, like you said.
also, a super important part of having a job like this is being able to shut your work-brain off when you’re not working. it’s hard sometimes, especially if you have to troubleshoot and plan, but so necessary. I’ve broken down in tears on the job (more than once) and been totally fine a couple minutes later, so I don’t think you should worry too much about it :)
1. not the a-hole
2. not the a-hole
3. you were the a-hole BUT it's not something to be fussed over anymore.
Telling him was very reasonable
First one, wording it like "hey I know this is last minute and I know you won't be able to get to it until at least next week but there's a hole in my ceiling" would help him realize that you weren't expecting anything to happen right away
6:51 i felt this so hard because a man at the oscars said “happy mothers day!” At the end of his speech and I panicked so hard cuz I was like “oh no there’s no way I missed it” until my friend calmed me by reminding me that he was from the U.K.
Builder needed a hug.
Thomas being the glorious friend made me smile! A collab with you two (and maybe Dan too) would be so fun!!! 😁
Thomas Sanders! Aaaa
Honestly, I started bawling yesterday because I couldn't find the house where the birthday party that I was invited to was and I think the friend who eventually came to my rescue was wondering a bit what was up with that. But it had almost nothing to do with the actual situation, it was just the straw that broke the camels back at the end of a long day. Seems like the builder was in a similar spot mentally
You're not the hole, he was probably just a bit tired. I cried at work today when my boss asked me if I could revacuum a spot because he accidentally spilled something and usually it wouldn't bother me too much, like it's a bit annoying, but today it just hit a bit wrong
I don't think you're an AH Phil! You need to let people know if there's something wrong - what if he needed to prepare before Monday? I think Mr Builder was just a bit overwhelmed 😊
I genuinely do not know what I would’ve done if I made a guy cry and he was coming back to fix my ceiling on Monday 😭
Also leave Thomas ALONE let him YAP
Honestly, telling him on the Friday makes sure that he has the right equipment on Monday to fix the issue and he can plan it around other work if its more important than other jobs!!
phil, people are allowed to be mad at you without that making you a bad person. the queue girl probably eventually went "yea it was fine"
you knew i was sick today and came to heal me so true
Aww 😍
every time I think about some interaction from the past that didn't go so well, I say to myself that people are usually too focused on themselves and, although it haunts me to this day, they probably forgot about it a long time ago - and I feel a little less of a hole
Final verdict - No holes here! It's good that u mentioned it, even if he had a bad day, once he clears his mind the solution will come faster.. but where's the infiltration from? If it's the roof you'll need new insulation, if it's a pipe maybe the materials were faulty? sorry this is happening man
Well, except the ceiling hole
phil i’m actually really glad you made this video because i get hung up on my negative/awkward moments with people all the time and it’s helpful to remember that dwelling on them isn’t doing anyone any favors and sometimes we do just need to let go. so thank u for that reminder ^_^
definitely not the hole, although that builder needs to take some time to themselves, because they are clearly not in a good headspace. it is not on you to know if something is urgent or not, thats for the professionel to decide. and then it's the builder's job to leave his job at work, when he goes home
perhaps the builder should read the best selling book You Will Get Through This Night by Daniel Howell, it's a great self help book and it helped me deal with a lot of my work stress
when you mentioned builders and crying i fully expected this to be an extended edition of when the builders saw the doll sponsor scrolling and just had a break down spinning in circles wondering why they accepted the job
your timing was not bad you were just being cautious 😭 i think he was just going through a little something
omg our own little phil AITH story
you are NOT the hole phil! telling the builders right away is what any customer should do, and while i do feel bad for the builder, his reaction was unprofessional
The queue thing is more or less understandable - if you had a verbal agreement with someone, your conscience should be clear, but I understand that it'd look bad to someone who didn't hear it and now has a person in front of them 'cutting' in line,, though if it's more than 5 minutes I'm not sure your place can be defended anymore xD well, it's not that deep at the end of the day
phil wearing the shirt he got dan!!!!
Dan's never going to wear it again
Honestly it contradicts his first sentence 😂 everyday sunshine? “I made a dude cry” 😅
It was his shirt he just made dan wear it on the stream
@@stephaniiee_didn’t he mention that his brother had it for him?
he didn’t get it for dan, someone gave it to phil and he said it was almost too bright even for him
only phil would overthink this to the point he feels the need to publicly confess his sins
Us: how many times did you change the title/thumbnail
Phil: yes
I’m a people pleaser with severe demand anxiety so it’s a constant battle with my anxiety stopping me from doing the thing but also wanting to be the good person 😂
i was genuinely crying while driving home from work but then i saw this upload notification and stopped
Phil, you’re TOO nice! I’d be thinking about what the builder had said all weekend due to anger, not from feeling bad
i have had builders in my house for 2 weeks and one of them damaged his hip playing football and i feel bad that he comes back everyday
ok side note the fact that that calathea behind phil looks so happy is really impressive, they’re SO fussy
I read the title as "I made a construction worker gay" and I spent the whole first story just waiting
It says something that THIS is the shit keeping Phil up at night. Cinnamon roll confirmed.
I just wanna add, as a very emotional person, crying is really not the worst thing, even if it‘s because of something someone said. It‘s always super uncomfortable because then the other person thinks they hurt me horribly and I have to explain my eyes just do this. You can feel a lot of emotion while at the same time knowing full well you‘re not gonna care anymore in like 20 minutes
SERIOUSLY me. As Rachel Green said, "These are not tears of sadness or of anger, but simply of me having this discussion with you!"
phil wearing dans everyday sunshine t-shirt is everything for me
It is originally Phil's, i think his brother bought it for his birthday? And then dan wore it for the live stream
@chloe3709 i think its from the stuff he got dan to order for his (phils) bday based on fans submissions
Tbh I don't really know how different this situation could've been. Like, you were respectful and notified him about the problem as soon as you noticed it. I'd say poor man probably had a shitty week and you telling him about the hole was the cherry on top QwQ
"the sanctity of the que" "mild hole" ....why am i watching this at 1 am 😭
lmao phil using us as his personal “anonymous” confessional is hilarious
phil's excuse for the package story literally happened to me: i was getting stuff delivered to my apartment, the tracking page said they'd show up at like 2, then i re-check at 12 and the page had updated to say that they'd been by
no one even buzzed me. i ended up having to go to the package pick-up place a few blocks away and get it there
Not the hole: it’s okay to mention things that are wrong. It seems like there were clearly external factors and it was just another thing on his plate. (As someone who had to wait three years for a build we were told would take one and a half)
I've never been so early but more importantly just a lil message to say thank you. Thanks for always being a light in the dark, someone I can turn to to cheer me up, and someone i feel like i can relate to. U help me feel like its okay to be me and i really appreciate it. Thanks Phil
I agree with the other comments that it was right of you to tell him but I still feel for the poor dude, clearly he's dealing with some stuff and you can't just turn your emotions off.
Yeah, I get this type of Anxiety too!! I always feel so freaking bad and go into a bad spiral, thinking I’m the worst human in the world! When in theory, it probably wasn’t even that bad!
I don't think you're the hole Phil you were trying to have your roof not fall down😭
i can’t explain it but the way phil says ‘thomas’ is so comforting
6:12 hi phil it's me, the queue girl, i forgive you, now let me rest in peace, my child🕊️
omg is it really u
@@emma.l nah this was a creator exclusive event
is what he hears in his dreams
Im so glad someone else gets a northern powerup when they r near builders. I see a tradesmen and my inner leeds comes out, i start talking about football and the lass back home.
Oh Phil, You are not the hole. It's literally that guy's job to fix the problems, he shouldn't have offloaded his stress onto you
People doing their job are still people. Nobody was the AH in this case but your take is terrible no offense.
@@UnBesoDeCristalI don’t think their take is terrible. Life is stressful for everyone but you still have to practice self control and not take your mood out on others, especially if they are your customers.
@@UnBesoDeCristal I mean terrible is a bit much 😂 I totally agree that working people are still people, but there’s still a level of professionalism that needs to be held, if the builder was having a tough time, he should have taken thag into account and understood that his reactions may have been slightly unpredictable, it isn’t Phil’s fault that the builder was having a bad day??
@@UnBesoDeCristal the builder isn’t the ahole, but it’s also incredibly unprofessional to cry to a customer about your job. yes, jobs can be stressful and weeks can be hard but that’s why you vent to your friends or family and find time outside of work that you can unwind.
@@ano7066 He didn’t cry to Phil about it though. He *cried* (and honestly even that feels like saying too much, cause based on Phil’s description it seems like…his eyes just welled up? Like that look where you can tell someone is trying *not* to cry?), but he didn’t cry *to* Phil about it.
Oh Phil, I appreciate that you're a kind enough person to feel bad about this, but I absolutely do not think you are the a-hole in the builder situation. It was absolutely the more responsible thing to point it out right away, even if it wasn't going to be worked on until Monday. It seems to me that the builder has gotten a bit familiar, and while it's nice to be able to have pleasant interactions with the professionals working on your home, he probably should not have brought so much of his personal life into the professional. That being said, I hope his week improved after a nice weekend off, and I hope that you were able to get the ceiling hole dealt with as well!
re builder: i think being like "hey this can totally wait but just so you know this is an issue-" probably would've been the way to go. i find it's usually best to acknowledge the person's feelings or concerns first before asking for something so they know you're not demanding or disregarding.
i guess that worker did not think you’re an everyday sunshine
Fancy seeing you in this comment section
okay I don't work in construction at all, but I do work in customer service and I think that guy's response was totally unprofessional. you were being very nice and polite about it and he was basically giving you shit!! doesn't matter what kinda day he was having, he was out of line for that imo.
Oh Phil you are such a pure soul. I wish everyone had such a kind and caring heart
8:11 LMAO as you were telling this I was thinking “I definitely would’ve said I was home all day but didn’t hear them”
OMG THE LIVESTREAM SHIRT
oh phil😿 not the hole in my books. the world just be like that sometimes.
At an anime convention I went to this weekend, the convention center was partially under construction. There are a lot of construction guys there, so I jokingly told one of them. I really liked their cosplay. They gave me the most awkward smile and chuckle, that keeps me up at night 😅
Okay but that’s funny. If I was the construction worker I would have laughed 🫡🫡
@@ilo_ro Thank you!! I'm surprised they didn't give a genuine chuckle lol It was pretty good
For the situation with the parcel, personally I would have popped my own note on my front door like “just nipped out please leave parcel (insert place)” just in case!
definitely good that you told him when you did imo
the mother's day present one was rough, but in your defense Phil, I have been at home all day once, and the mail person did leave a slip with no knock! no idea why, but it did happen one time
Phil you should get one of those shirts that says I ❤ to make boys cry
I think we've all been that builder
Phil I feel like our anxieties are the same! I'm constantly worried about making people mad or annoyed or sad but I'm slowly learning that sometimes peoples reactions to me have everything to do with them and not me. Anxiety makes us feel guilty for everything and you don't deserve jail! The first two stories you're definitely not the A-hole, the third story I know had everything to do with anxiety... I've lied before but yea always better to tell the truth. Lol!! I won't blame ya tho! Blame the anxiety!! You're doin ok!!
okay but Phil doing his own AITH reddit stories is so funny to me.. makes me think Dan & Phil doing Reddit stories on Smosh would be really fun!
to be fair, one of you or dan could've held your place in the queue, or invited thomas over to chat
Fun Mother’s Day history fact: in the uk (and several other countries) Mothering Sunday has been celebrated on the 4th Sunday of lent for ages but it was only after the US started celebrating Mother’s Day (on the second Sunday of may) in around 1907 that we started to just call it Mother’s Day and in some countries it is celebrated on international women’s day on the 8th of March!
I feel like the construction one was ABSOLUTELY necessary to mention for safety reasons. You have no idea if that will fall on you and injure you, that's literally his job.
Nah you should never wait to tell a builder about a problem, while of course you knew it couldn’t be done on that day, it was important for the builder to be aware of that issue as it was a potential risk
Last night I, too, was spiralling in a negative direction of everything i have done wrong in life so this is cathartic to watch. Ty Phil.
6:21 in that shirt Phil sure can beacon anyone over
I make a man cry for fun Phil so don’t feel bad
Thank you for posting on Sunday, I appreciate it as a lonely person ❤
PHIL STORYTIME IS THE BESTEST
As someone who has been dealing with the same thing, you’re not the hole Phil. You never know when that little hole in the roof could turn from bad to worse!
Cartoon guy: I feel like committing a betrayal today
While I can understand the builder's reaction in the moment, I do think it was best for him to know on Friday so he could fit it into his planning for the coming week.
I would have also lied about the package lol
