Three months of always being late? That wouldn't even fly for more than a month!

[@nco_gets_it]

must have been a government job

He'd be fired within the first week, I don't know how some people live in their own reality no way this shit would fly for a month.

[@heyitzaimee]

yeah I got comfortable and I was being asked to do everything at work and I started slacking off and got fired. lesson learned that day

[@aliciachristensen4418]

most employers i've known if you are chronically late you are fired. usually it's 3 or more.

[@lillyvonshtup7314]

Two minutes into this conversation his ass would have been fired

Travis can play all the games he wants; now that he's fired, LOL

[@ladylunaginaofgames40]

I surprised Travis didn't read the terms of agreement and assumed any workplace have optional work hours. And that he can talk down to his boss because of an educational gap

[@rogueshark23]

This is why you read before you agree to something.

[@harryboyes2812]

The gap is in his brain. If he even has one. And that is highly doubtful.

If the company is in an "At Will" state, the company doesn't have to give a 30 day notice. For someone who graduated college, Travis sure is stupid

[@mattwho81]

This is why companies have probationary periods. Turn up late more than a couple of times in the first six months and you’ll be fired on the spot.

Travis would have been fired from most workplaces before the first conversation.

*A list of times Beth should have fired Travis:* Before the story began (the biggest one) Travis telling her about being tired from gaming all night. During the 1st flex time conversation Travis throwing the social media temper tantrum. The college/respect/flex time conversation During the week off *When Beth finally did fire Travis:* During the Travis coming back conversation

[@kyla2267]

Hahaha! Travis thought anything on the internet could be private. That's hilarious!

[@Alistair2348]

Years ago, we used to hire graduates at my company, but we started getting too many Travis's, so, as a result, we now hire non graduates and train them on site. It was/is a great improvement

[@Topazman12]

Posting company confidential information online could be a breach of contract that you've signed. And it could be a high security risk.

[@rogueshark23]

Plus, he was stupid enough to use the company's laptop for social media and Travis needs to learn to read again.

[@michaelgum97]

That should have gotten him arrested.

[@nco_gets_it]

Defamation is a civil offense. One does not get "arrested" for it, nor does one have a "criminal record" for it.

[@straightblackgirl]

Thank you!

[@kimmccarthy7747]

Yeah, the writers went a little too far over the top there.

[@leannes1083]

Yeah, Beth would probably know that, but it would still be fun to scare Travis with the threat. Albeit unprofessional, but after putting up with his attitude for 3 months, who wouldn't want to take the little idiot down a peg or 2?

[@karlpeterson1056]

There are some states with criminal defamation laws, though that is primarily a civil tort.

[@annegrey6447]

If Travis was really interested in working nights he would have applied it. Also, as a gamer I get sick of hearing irl friends using “but I was gaming” as an excuse for everything.

[@KaiPonVisp]

I am not a morning person, but I do my fucking hardest to get to work on time. Some days it's harder (because of health issues) but I would NEVER talk to someone the way Travis talks to his boss.

[@Scardy]

I’m a late riser myself, which is why I jumped at the opportunity to take a job with a second shift, and even on the rare days I do have to come in early, I make sure I’m there on time, even if I’m still a little lethargic and bleary-eyed.

[@NickJaime]

Lol how is this boss letting her underlying keep letting him call her by her first name. That disrespectfulness is crazy plus being late. This guy should have been fired 2 weeks in lol.

[@seffie]

As a gamer who works a full time job plus a semi part time job outside of summer vacations, I assure you we don’t claim this man

[@imaniislander755]

Just fire the fool

[@imaniislander755]

16 minutes in

[@Gazing-09]

... Having to go through depression due to not being unemployed, Travis's entitlement and high and mighty attitude is infuriating. I'm back to looking for a job again due to family obligations (actually it was more of a emergency) hopefully, I'll be stronger now. I'm not the best employee but I'd be damned if I wouldn't give my best working, instead of parading myself around like I'm some sort of office king. So yeah, screw Travis.

[@mleighqs]

Travis has to be one of the stupidest characters of this type in these stories. I bet even after everything that happened he still thinks he did nothing wrong.

[@ShirleyABurton]

Travis is the embodiment of entitlement in all the wrong ways.

[@peanutgallery4159]

Well, already late a lot then 3 days no show, he'd a been fired a long time ago, employees do not dictate to the employer! Period! Why is she arguing with him and taking his know it all mouth? Fired!! Company cc? That university didn't teach Travis how to conduct himself, nor should they have to, that's on mom and dad, terrible job mom n dad...

And this is why I work overnights lol. I hate early mornings and struggle to wake on time. I’m a night owl. Dude just needs to find a night shift job.

Travis sounds like one of 'those guys' in Uni who only graduated because they made sure they were the last person in a study group quota - the person who just sits on his phone the entire time and got a passing grade just because he later bullied the group to his name being included on the paper

[@AlystraKriss]

I don’t know of ANY bosses/companies that would put up with Travis. He would have been fired already for tardiness long before he defamed the company online. And after that confession he would definitely be sued. This boss needs to fire him and move on

[@geraldineekhator5428]

He’s extremely fortunate that he was employed for as long as he was. He is being insubordinate with his disrespect for his boss, lackadaisical for his office hours and how he worked. Being narcissistic about taking responsibility for what he did and blaming others for his actions.

[@CricketsWorldJC]

Oh the irony of a college graduate trying to belittle the person, who didn't graduate highschool, as she's his boss and he's working at her company. 😂😂

[@danielh6015]

No 30 day notice needed in the US

[@Renville80]

Most places I've worked have the policy that three consecutive NCNS = voluntary resignation due to job abandonment. Also, multiple non-consecutive NCNS will initiate disciplinary procedures starting with a verbal warning, then a write-up, then dismissal for cause. Even consistent lateness will get you started into the disciplinary procedures (I will admit being in a situation where just punching in five minutes late one more time would have resulted in my firing; I preempted that by a timely job change). The boss in this story is far too generous for the company's good.

[@ixxieangel]

Quit the back and forth nonsense and just fire him for breach of contract as he's only been employed for three months there and sue him for defamation and libel for damage to the companies reputation. How exactly would an employee of three months have any paid vacation time accrued yet?

[@skystar2026]

[@raeishimura]

Travis's entire attitude comes off as "Me am the smart! You do the respect at me now!" someone who's a huge narcissist who thinks he's some kind of big deal who is talking to someone superior to him in every way and trying to look down on them.

[@straightblackgirl]

Being late is not a this generation problem, it is a Travis problem.

[@julie.1081]

I agree to a point. There is no "all" to any group of people. Unfortunately, Travis generation seems to have an increasing number that act like him in the work place. The good news is those of the same generation who do put in the work are seen as stars in comparison. One of those "6 of one, 1/2 a dozen of another" type things. Then again, every generation is seen as something to the previous one. That's just life. But now days, when people seem to put everything out there for anyone see, it can come back to bite them quickly.

[@sinan2.71]

The company my son worked at did not have sick days, only vacation days. he was also a new graduate. Five months in he got COVID. Lucky for him they just let him stay home unpaid while he was sick and return once he was well.

[@TheFlowerchild712]

I'm a gamer, but I've never priortized a game over my job. I've spent entire days playing too but only on days off and never to the point where I'm missing my shifts. Even if I'm 1 minute late, I call to let them know.

[@corinnefogarty7880]

The only way he's not being fired is that he has to be related to someone higher up. Or not. He's incredibly stupid and arrogant. But, she can make him an hourly employee, and set tasks he has to accomplish on a schedule. Or give him the equivalent of piece work with the pay to go with it. Right now what he's doing is theft of time. No company tolerates that. WOW! He just added extortion to his record.

[@Jenifer_R_]

Travis made some good points about flexible work hours. 🤷‍♀

[@darkmage9252]

Sorry Travis but ANYTHING you say on SOCIAL MEDIA isn't PRIVATE, it's PUBLIC.

[@carollykins9475]

A company president wouldn't spend anytime with the employee, HR would take care of this guy.

[@mrsangelafisher]

I like his idea. Everyone is productive at different times. I've always been a night howl.

[@quix66hiya22]

You know, it’s not a bad idea for Flex Time, but night is weird. My last employer, you could choose 8:00 or 9:00 AM. I chose 9:00. The boss did too! But it a nonprofit, not a factory! I’m a late riser myself! Im no longer working, can sleep as late as I like! 😂

[@arthapend]

Travis: "Why would the other employees angry at me? I didn't do anything to hurt them directly..." You were rude to your coworkers, made them do your work when you were having flex time, and defame the company which gave them more unwanted work like trying to assure others that it wasn't true or threatening their jobs if the defamation did ruin the company's reputation.

The next time you're late, I'm going to remove you from the work schedule. Then, you can spend all the time you want playing video games.

[@laurenmentink7401]

I need to say first that I really love your videos. Well rehearsed and read. Concerning education, I have 4 college degrees and have not used them in getting a job. Anyone who gets hung up on someone not having a college degree is a moron. it helps a little and costs a lot to get. Not sure if it was worth it to be honest.

[@renee176]

The president of the company would not have had this type of conversation with the average employee. It would have never gotten to her. If he's so smart why is he working for someone else. Why not start his own company, between playing video games. He should be very successful...lol!😂

[@shirleyhoward8806]

In the good ol days he would have lasted about 2 days

2 DAYS? I think that's more like 2 MINUTES.

[@Bluegirl285]

At my last job, i used to work from home from 6AM to 2PM. It was nice because once work was done on Fridays I would then go to bed and take a nice long nap.

[@happydoots382]

A job is a commitment. You have committed your time and energy which in turn you get paid for. No call no shows inconvenience everyone. This guy is one stupid excuse away from fired. And promising?! Kinda delusional too. And that SM post? NEVER post anything on SM about or in any relation to work. It’s incredibly risky, not to mention, borderline career jeopardy. Things circulate online. 🙄🙄

[@HaesslichG]

29:57 - and this is the part where they should've named the university he graduated from because they're obviously a degree mill.

[@matthewharrison7127]

New employee would be cut loose after just a few tardies. Also, 3 days no call no show in many places would be viewed as voluntary resignation. And new employees would generally not have a lot of vacation time right away, and even if vacation time has been earned, it's usually required to be approved weeks in advance.

[@jennabrock6902]

So nice for letting it fly for a few months some don't even let it go a week 😅

[@connienani7259]

Just put him on the night shift. I’m sure cleaning the building will suit him better.

[@riley6740]

Hahaha Travis is the type to say to the enemy (if he were military) “Wait! I wasn’t ready!” Or he’d tell them to stop waking him up and he’ll be getting there when he wants to. The youth of our times. That’s the other thing, kids who have a college/university degree are not worth the money they paid, for nothing. The pronouns, the special needs they believe they are entitled to. No way would I hire anyone who went to college/university. Only specialized education and then I would really need to vet them inside out.

[@demonkitties9672]

I'm not a morning person this I choose a profession that allows me to work late afternoon to middle of the night(just got off work and it's currently 1:16 am

Im not a morning person but im disabled. I used to attend a day program for disabled adults before i moved to a different state to live with my mom. One of my drivers would call 30 minutes ahead which was great then he got a better job. So i started to carry everything to get ready in the morning with me at my day program. I even had a change of clothes since i sometimes showered there. I also carried stuff since i was homeless a couple of times before. I would brush my hair teeth do my skin care and make up but that was a different situation i wasn't blowing off work. I used to work i liked it. I made sure was there on time.

[@topperharley2593]

Honestly, flex-time has improved every company that has implemented it

[@EarlBaldbear]

These stories are creative fun, but they sometimes have holes in them. Yes, Travis would have fired a lot earlier, possibly from the first conversation. I worked at a state university before I retired. The rules weren't quite as strict about time off, but we had three personal days/year when we could "call in" and just not show up, altho we were strongly discouraged from doing so when the office was busy. We also could call in sick, but, of course, you were supposed to be REALLY sick. Most private companies boot you out after two or three unexcused absences in one year. Oh, and defamation of character, at least in the U.S., is a civil offense. You don't get arrested and go to jail for it. Still, I'm addicted to these stories!

[@joninapepperell1151]

I cant understand people like that. I live in the uk and I didnt get A levels in school but I worked hard and I'm now a psychotherapist working with mental health. I did have to go to University as an adult. It just shows you don't need to get straight A's from school to be successful x
