This is why people who work retail need to be paid more … because they might need to deal with customers like this!

[@cruzsnellen4531]

It is connor

Finally the comment we never need

[@Greenscout69]

We require a crossover

[@banj_yoyt]

Sup, Connor

[@dylanclay2741]

As someone who used to work retail, Its not "might" need to, it's they WILL have to deal with customers like this

[@isiwisi07]

i always watch ur vids before my driving lessons, it calms me down, tysm!!! Story 1: the stolen car is kind of a plottwist, i thought that he is stupid for robbing the store so obvious but also stealing a car and using it to flee! The OP did a good job to not put themselves or anyone else in danger, it could’ve ended very bad. Story 2: Its the Karens fault, she could’ve checked if anyone has a room for them. She got what she deserved. Story 3: The Fiancé has to chill, the Kids are Kids, of course everything won‘t be extremely clear. Also i can imagine the Sister really struggling because of the abusive husband. The Fiancé said themselve it would be okay, its not like they are freeloading.

[@magic8ball1982]

Last story - When he offered to let them stay, it was probably an empty gesture and he probably expected them to refuse. When they didn't, that's when he got upset because now he's backed into a corner and has to deal with it.

[@renierbonthuyzen9703]

Not at all. I think he expected the mother to clean after the kids and that they would not be invading her personal space... Ie.. his toilet... I would get pissed off too.... Especially if the mother 'Cleaned up' after the kids but the surfaces were still sticky... SHE DID NOT CLEAN UP.... Also, the kids probably pissed on the floor and the mother didn't clean up

[@shecoda4402]

STRUGGLING OP If OP wants kids, she better pay attention to how this guy acts around the children. As for the sister, she needs to step up and clean up after her children's messes.

[@miamohrbacher3341]

Story 1: you could’ve just bought the TV.

[@Bigdan678]

the op of the first story should be promoted and get a huge pay raise for what he did.

[@brianlowe251]

Every time my sister comes over for some reason she has to leave a dry washcloth on the counter after washing her hands. I'll put it in a basket that is easily within Arm's Reach and she will take a new one out and put it on the counter. I've asked her a bunch of times not to do this results in a bizarre argument so those weird little things are all related

[@QuickManEXE]

Story 1: Wow, that was pretty crazy. First off, good on the OP for following stupid protocols here... i know i would've gone after the TV thief until they got to the car. Really good too that not only was it all caught on CCTV, but that there was a few witnesses. Hopefully the TV thief ends up being cellmates with his friend/acquaintance in jail after stealing the TV and the car and the big police chase. Also, he should end up on an old episode of "Worlds Dumbest Criminals" for actually trying to go back for the car later on at the dealership. He should've suspected that they would be waiting for someone to come back for it. Overall, OP did a good job and glad to see that they got praised for their handling of it all. Story 2: Well, management does have a right to refuse service, and i know i would've refused them when they came back.... but looks like they didnt need to take that route. Hopefully the Karen has to sleep in the vehicle, and that that the new people that took the room enjoyed their stay. Story 3: Okay, there is something not being told here. If this all boils down to simple cleanliness, then he should say what he likes and help out a bit... otherwise, he's just being a complete dick here.

[@AlphineWolf]

Well technically a customer did.

[@thefuturelineman9384]

story 1: looks like them old duke boys are back at it again

[@WabbitRB]

I've been in that situation when I was volunteering at an op-shop. I'd been with them for a while, as as we were only a small staff I was actually left in charge while they went to do the banking. I had authority over everything, including pricing. When the managers did come back they were surprised by how well I had actually done while handing the keys back to them (they hand me the keys when they leave me in charge) which then happened on several occasions. On one of these occasions I just happened to be putting stock on display and noticed this woman. In the end she did end up buying these nesting trestle table, which she had no intention of actually buying initially. There was no price on it so we actually negotiated. As I later found out from the manager she was actually a secret shopper. Now as I had done everything in the store from dusting, arranging, vacuuming, displays, assisting customers and cashing them out that secret shopper gave the highest score she had ever given. It was 95/100, the only thing she should could find to mark us down was the dirt on the front windows, which I had no jurisdiction over. They gave me an award, and put my picture in their newsletter. That was the most praise and appreciation I had felt in any job I have ever done, and like I said it was all volunteer.

[@brandonnewby178]

4:30: " You did everything you could." * Proceeds to do something else that should be done. 😂😂

[@lazypatatoto]

I love the Karen voice on this channel

[@maxwellmortimermontoure7274]

I was fortunate enough to work retail at a place ran by very old school well connected individuals. Those old men would go ape shit on a thief.

[@TheKillStreaker]

"Catch me if you can!!" litterally sonic

[@RMTren]

Last story: I'm not a clean freak but how does someone think leaving sticky spots on counters and handles count as clean???

[@yuan5154]

The guy playing GTA IRL thinking that the wanted stars has gone away for him to come back to get the car 😂

[@lyssamalloy5162]

Story 1. Stores like this needs security guards this will save some employees the hassle what if the thief is armed and hurt OP this will be a different story

[@skylerlightning4620]

I think this occurred at a Walmart because it only multi chain store that know of that meet all requirements as is have electronic section a automotive section (as well car bay connect to it) and it definitely type store that this can easily occur at.

[@767Shadow]

I live near a small supermarket kind of store that has 4 guards for 2 exits, there job is literally to check the items bought and match them with the receipt. The store in the story should have that function

[@SewardWriter]

@@767Shadow Wally World is too greedy to pay security what they're worth.

[@AlphineWolf]

@@skylerlightning4620 And only Walmart would have a police car stationed in the parking lot.

[@deepseastonecore3017]

Thanks 4 all the hard work.

[@jaylinnell5251]

Story 3: The OP’s fiancé sounds kinda like my grandma. She wouldn’t ever settle for “Clean enough,” her house needed to be absolutely gorram spotless. Annoyed the hell out of me while I was living with her.

[@ChaoticallyPrivate]

Story 1: that guy NEEDS a raise for that, he had no problems with it, got the TV back and caused a chain reaction in good terms. Maybe even a promotion.

[@FerventLotus]

The part that pisses me off about the TV theft story is the poor kid was working by himself in an entire department with an exit. If he had been in the middle of ringing up a person, and not be able to act right then and there and finish the transaction first our of priority, he may have been fired for neglecting the rules of the place. The other thing is the very danger he put himself in. This guy didn't act threatening to him or have a show of any weapons. What if he had? It pisses me off that anti-union companies like Walmart get away with allowing people working a department alone, making them responsible for merchandise, checking aisles, helping customers, ringing up customers, zoning, and then security. That's a lot of hats for one person to wear by themselves.

[@laris2328]

The best part is that the car's owner probably left the car in the thief's care bc they trusted him. The car owner's insurance company probably dropped him lmao 😂

[@NickBeast-gy2es]

Story 2: if I were this Karen’s husband, I would’ve told her “That’s it! I’m dropping you off at home so me and the kids can enjoy the zoo”

[@axeldiaz404]

Donate her to the zoo

[@cassiusbrown9374]

Right had that Karen not thrown a fit about the rooms being too small the first around this all could have been avoided.

[@zafergenc5220]

The comment section in this channel is so good

[@jordanfromthewaikato]

What’s amazing is that there a people who will swipe items worth less than $15 from local crafters who are barely getting by.

[@ihavespoken_shorts]

I almost spit out my peanut M&Ms watching this.

Inmates: why did you get arrested Inmate 1: I killed 5 people Inmate 2: I made a plane crash Inmate 3: I stole a 43 inch tv

I love you’re vids

[@johnnymcneal5914]

To answer his question no it was not worth it but don't worry he will get a TV to watch in jail on the taxpayers dime

[@kariann430]

i worked at a dollar general and a guy was waiting in line just took off with a $5 dollar bottle of wine, i was waiting on a nice lady and went to bag her stuff and he just walked out with it, i had to yell for help since i was the only person in the front of the store. i got in trouble for yelling and they did not find the guy

[@axeldiaz404]

Last story: i get how the fiance is feeling but that is no reason to treat your guests like that especially if they are family and they have just gotten out of a abusive situation. The fiance is just starting to become the abusive husband all over again and shouldn't be telling her to leave yet because it isn't easy for a single mom to survive on her own. All things considered though i do wanna hear the fiance's side of the story in case they're any details that were left out by the OP

[@AnimeGamer501st]

The original poster's a woman it is a fact that most women omit or keep certain details out of stories like this I don't know about the abusive fiance I've watched too much of SSM (strong successful male) to understand that women do lie so do men but women like more often than not

[@kalajel]

A 42 or 43 inches TV... Not exactly the size of TV I'd risk going to jail over.

[@marmot418]

Story #1 is amusing

[@Leosloth2011]

Pay police and retail workers more they have to deal with these psychos

[@lollybirdy]

Theft beepers lmao

[@The_chaotic_groudon]

Retail workers don't get paid enough for this

[@joshfly210]

Story 3 I feel like she’s leaving some stuff out and I’d need to hear his side of the story to have a full picture before making a judgment.

[@AnimeGamer501st]

I agree too

[@Tontteman]

Last story: I'm almost certain that he have already thrown all of them out by the time we are hearing this story. One thing you should never do, is to outstay your welcome. It's his home and he clearly doesn't want those people there. This is not something that he signed up for and he isn't in anyway a bad person if he want them all out.

[@crimsonvoid1595]

For Story 1: There was a girl I used to know and hang out with and we were hanging out at a mall and I thought she was going to steal something from a store we were in and I called her out because she was walking towards the doors and she told me she was still shopping and that I just embarrassed her. I think that was the first thing I did that started to ruin our friendship.

[@fastertrackcreative]

Regards the last one, he's probably growing tired of them being there. Months is a long time to host them.

[@cleonasedai]

Particularly if they haven't been attempting to find a place of their own

[@tornadokegan]

1:19 sounds a lot like a Walmart

[@queenumaofthepridelands1780]

I love it

[@Tubb2581]

Story 1, WALMART. I ran AP FOR 9YRS

[@lauramiller7690]

Also this should give you some insight into your relationship with him also I would wonder if you plan a future in a wedding with them how is he going to expect your children doctor's he's going to expect them to be perfect and yell at them when they're not after all kids are kids and neatness is a learned habit it just doesn't happen from birth if he can't handle sticky frigerator handles and other things is he really equipped to deal with children?

[@kindrewchang1494]

Cut the cap

[@Tammy2Tone]

Story #3- Weird... Especially after HE was the one who initially opened up the doors TO her family! He KNEW there were kids... &he HAD to know kids are Hella messy sometimes. He seems like a multiple personality having IDIOT! Like, WTF?! Look into this relationship if he's really the type to talk (all kinds of) mess about YOUR fam, but YOU can't say BOO about HIS! TF is that?! Narcissism is what it is.🤨😗😠

[@johnnymcneal5914]

Actually he did get something for his troubles about 6 to 8 years in jail

[@slimeknight4528]

Ik damn well the first story is Walmart

[@7amoody.buhazza]

Wow

[@Batman-lg2zj]

I don’t blame the fiancé in the third story.

[@victoriamiranda-stotelmyre4382]

The last story BF has red flags flying, he doesn’t seem to be a far cry from OP’s BIL ( Sisters pick the same type of guy ) 8 and 10 yr olds can be shown how to wipe a countertop or to use a paper towel to open the fridge so the handle won’t get sticky. I think OP and Sis +kids should find a small place until sis gets on her feet. The kids are not toddlers, so old enough to help out and learn some basic child responsibilities. BF just wanted to appear as the hero that he’s clearly not capable of.

[@AnimeGamer501st]

I agree with everything you said except the boyfriend we don't know the situation we don't know his side of the story this is why I take some of these stories with a grain of salt because we don't know the other side, such things have happened before on this channel where someone will write a story the narrator dude will talk about it give his opinion and then turn around and try to backtrack because the other side came out to be that the op was actually the

[@patrickrichmond9896]

Well chasing the guy out and yelling at him I find the be not so good as we never know the guy might have a gun in the car and could be risking getting shot.

[@CreatingArt3185]

The last guy sounds just as bad as op sister ex

[@animetalk8132]

Hi

[@sirblack1619]

Story #2 this just shows how letting the female lead will cause problems. I hope that the husband let her have it later.

Bro your sexism reeks. Try cover it up better next time.

[@viviennemorgan7217]

[@tellenx9267]

hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

[@pedropub5245]

ohhh man , the 3rd story nearly got me baited , but come on your husband wanted you to stay home , that was abusive and you left ... really you are a mother of 2 child , if finances are not a problem , yeah stay home , especially if the kids are always sick and someone has to stay home, as OP and his husband said also.

[@AnimeGamer501st]

That's what I was thinking when she started talking about her sisters fiance, she probably wanted to go out and party and do some irresponsible things while she had two kids at home. you know the original poster for the third-story kind of revealed some things, if I'm not mistaken those kids are old enough to clean up after themselves which tells me that the fiance of the sister just wanted her to stay home and teach their kids how to be functional young adults as he goes and works. this is why I subscribe to SSM and people that are like him, because he tells me when a woman tells her story listened attentively and look in between the lines. We can obviously see that the original poster in the third-story probably has an entitled sister and the fiance was tired of it.

[@11rahimis1234]

Last Story. Tell fiancé to man up, grow up and stop being disrespectful of you family otherwise you two are done. I would not want someone like that in my life. He is acting very childish and entitled. This is toxic behaviour and if he is not going to cut it out dump his ass and move on.

[@AnimeGamer501st]

And this is why you're a beta male. You obviously don't listen to SSM and i know you didn't read the comments about other people's boarding things out that doesn't make sense.

[@lauramiller7690]

Understand wanting to help your sister but should she is now a single mom with no job and no income there are programs to help women especially coming out of a bad relationship to find housing assistance with food and shelter and everything else maybe you should look into some of these programs to help get her on her feet

[@Mepxler007]

Yoooo

[@bobbiburger4015]

💕

[@merlinbroaddus]

For the last story, the BF, not happy with OPs sister and kids. If OP and he get married, how is he going to react when THEY have kids??? TOTAL RED FLAGS!!!

[@axeldiaz404]

Ikr and besides he is showing his ugly side which he seemed to hide before

[@AnimeGamer501st]

Simple it's not his kids, it's not his job disciplining. if his kids do such a thing, then he can go and discipline them and show them how to clean. I don't know what it is about people like y'all that complain about a guy complaining about kids that are in the wrong doing stuff that they are not supposed to be doing and can't discipline them because they're not his kids. Y'all are weird.

[@laris2328]

Last story. OP you are the Jerk if you stay with the CONTROLLING BF. What are you going to do if you have any kids with him, GOD FORBID. He'll expect YOU to keep the house pErFeCt. If not, he'll probably take the kids to his mom's house for a "visit" and you could lose custody. Dump him and move out with your sister and kids.

[@viviennemorgan7217]

dude why are you calling op the jerk?

[@axeldiaz404]

@@viviennemorgan7217 if she stays with her fiance* bc then she would probably leave their future kids subject to her fiances stupidity

[@AnimeGamer501st]

The kids are old enough to clean up after and she clearly isn't disciplining of course the guy is going to rant and complain about the sister and the kids because they obviously aren't being taught right and there's nothing he can do because they're not his kids also the narrator dude brings up a good point what was the timeline here what is she doing to get up on her feet and move out with her kids there's a lot of inconsistencies and things that were pointed out by many others who are like me distrust the original poster store in that last one and it's obvious you're too dumb to notice

good for you

[@BROUBoomer]

Most hotels (especially in the summer) keep the first night's stay even if you cancel. It's best to stay the first night at the reserved hotel room, while looking for something better, and book it for the next night, before canceling the original hotel room. Because who wants to have to pay for something you aren't using? I worked in the hospitality industry for 30+ years. And the companies I've worked for all went by this rule. I'm in Central Florida, a tourist town. 🦩 👵☮️🖖
