The guy who insulted the autistic people should be ashamed of themselves. I’m also autistic and I take this personally

[@Charles-7]

me too, that jerk let his ego do the talking, these kinds of people should learn that we're NOT doing it for the attention, we're just trying to fit in like any normal person, unlike that guy who insults the disabled for no reason there!

[@Aarbitraary]

Another autistic here, people like this really disgust me. And the autistic customer definitely handled the situation well too!! Sure, he was freaking out and about to have a panic attack, but I think with OP there, he absolutely killed it. OP couldn't have handled the situation any better.

[@YourAverageGamer-]

I’m not autistic but I’m still disgusted at that type of behaviour

[@MikinessAnalog]

the best way to handle narcissists like that in most situations is to act like they don't exist, ignoring them as they are seeking emotional reaction to their drama. Sometimes it's entertaining to observe how they react when you do not.

[@Sonicphobia0601]

I'm autistic as well. I secretly wish the worst to those who insult autistic people

[@Aarbitraary]

As a child to two long term army vets, people who steal Valor are some of the worst scum on the earth.

[@sir.confident]

Oh wow! I'm the nephew of three army veterans and the cousin of one. Valor thieves are just as low as people who pick on those with special needs.

Story 2: The OP was so nice to the autistic customer and cared and talked to him.

[@Charles-7]

yep, and with that the op is autistic as well, even disabled people should help others like that sometimes.

First story: The "captain" is definitely not a veteran, just another stolen valor pretender.

[@nightblade7165]

Second story: i think this is the best thing you could've done in this scenario. It's a difficult situation to begin with, but you're the absolute picture of the perfect server👍

[@dragonguerrero1622]

Third story OP, heres a hug. You didn't do nothing wrong. What it is that your sister-in-law is jealous of, you. Don't know why but there could be many reasons and because she basically needs a rival to survive, she picked you as her rival. You might have to just start calling her out and letting her know that you're not going to play her game and that she's got to play alone .

[@ValkyriePlaysOfficial]

They were being insane. Good job on your part for getting it solved.

[@edwardmartinez2323]

I only like it when another veteran says thanks you for service

[@OliveDasi]

I'm neurodivergent and while I cannot speak for the person you served, it would mean the absolute world to me if I had a server like you. You are such a kind person for what you did. Sometimes ignoring the awful person in the background is the best way to go about things as confrontation (in front of the person) can make things so much worse. Showing kindness overwrites that 10000 fold.

[@davidponseigo8811]

My father in law was a very decorated Navy Vet, he's actually kind of famous as he shot down two Mig jet fighters in Vietnam. He was in the battle of Dong Hoi and shot down two fighters with a Talos missile and he has the record of firing the first naval surface to surface and first surface to air missile and he has been verified as having the highest kill count of the Vietnam War due to serving on every missile cruiser in Vietnam and the large targets he destroyed with missiles. He totally despised having people saying thank you for your service. He felt guilty for killing so many people especially when he did it from a ship and they soldiers never knew who killed them. He said it felt like people were saying thank you for killing so many people and he didn't like that. My father was a Air Force Air Police in the first Air Force commando unit and had to take multiple lives when his airbase in Vietnam was almost over run and it changed him.

[@dragonguerrero1622]

Second story OP is a hero. They handled it better than i would've of. I would have literally cussed the guy out for making fun of a disability. Don't make fun of autistic people. Don't make fun of people in general. OP is alot nicer than i am.

[@firefly4f4]

In my experience, veterans don't advertise the fact

[@unicornforever4257]

4th Story: Honestly, that manager seems creepy to me. He's clingy to OP, and him being so instant on picking OP up/dropping them off, made me think he wants to know where OP lives! OP, document everything he has done and does from now on! And use it to keep him away from you!

[@jasoncarpp7742]

*Story 1:* I've known plenty of veterans of various wars and conflicts, and not many of them wore anything to look them look like a veteran. The oldest being WWII and Korean, the youngest Desert Storm. Some wore baseball caps that said *"Veteran of Korean War"* or *"Veteran of Vietnam",* etc.

[@MikinessAnalog]

In story 2, the best way to handle narcissists like that in most situations is to act like they don't exist, ignoring them as they are seeking emotional reaction to their drama. Sometimes it's entertaining to observe how they react when you do not.

[@johansmith4764]

I have autism... Number 2 did so good handling that individual! You are a pro! I honestly understand that costumer and with your experience he calmed down. You understood him.

[@Bald_Cat2007]

My great-grandfather was a WW2 veteran, who served aboard the USS Shangri-la CV-38 as a radio operator from 1944-45. The only thing he ever wore to show his veteran status was a Shangri-la CV-38 hat. He was always so humble about it and never a pompous ass

[@Tontteman]

Last story: they should break up, he doesn't deserve that, he deserves someone who actually likes him, not someone who is obsessed about how much money he makes, that's so toxic. And liberal arts, i think we all know what kind of person op is. By the way, one month, is that even a relationship.

[@samuelw4492]

Exactly lol

[@aparnarai3708]

Story 5: OP sounds like a red flag

[@gotenblack2542]

ya op seems like she cares more about money then she does about the bf

[@stangundam01]

story 3 record her then call her out with them story 4 record encounters with him where he acts like that then take it to hr

[@monroerobbins7551]

The first story, I’ve met so many veterans who never wanna talk about what they went through. The only one who’s told me is because that shit affects you, down to the bone. For some, it’s not a matter of pride, to wear as a bumper sticker or a flag. It was because they felt they had to, whether it be because of patriotism, or they literally needed something like health care or cash for college. Like, that shit isn’t glamorous, it is nerve grating. And that second story? I’m so glad OP didn’t let that bastard get to them, or that fellow. As a fellow person on the spectrum, I hate it when people try to make fun of it, like it’s some oddity or a marvel (like we’re all supposed to either be some idiot or some genius with zero social skills), it’s just so irritating. Plus, shows how little they know about being on the spectrum.

[@Demonic_Culture_Nut]

Story 2 -- As someone else on þe spectrum, OP handled it well enough. He should've confronted þe ableist, but þat's all. Story 4 -- HR will only step in if a legal action is þreatened. Tell þem to take þe matter seriously or you're going to file a workplace harassment complaint wiþ þe appropriate agencies. Remember, HR exists to protect þe company, not þe worker.

[@ChipsNotCrisps2]

The second story was heartwarming not the rude guy but how the server managed the situation very well

[@alphabravo8703]

0:49 I cringe when I hear that too. I tell people that I think I speak for a lot of vets when I say I'd rather you call your congress critter and tell them not to trash the V.A. anymore than they already have.

[@andrewreynolds8395]

I was in the army and don't consider myself to be a veteran, however I find bumper stickers to be tacky and refuse to place any kind of bumper or window stickers on my car, that guys behavior is very toxic.

[@TheVillageIdiot829]

First story: my dad served in the Marines and the Army. Ive seen his DD-214 for both branches. Most he had daily waz his marine corps hat and a flag on his coat. He had the eagle globe and anchor on his truck he never drove

[@XOrtKnight]

Reddit stories these days… My dad served, and people don’t question whether he served. People just have no common sense. It’s 2023 guys; I thought people were past this.

[@rebekahwhitney2726]

My mom, tiny 5’2” lady so bohemian my great great grandmother actually immigrated from Bohemia-Austria, is also a veteran who is often disbelieved about it. But actually not just my mom but my equally tiny aunts are also all veterans. My grandpa wasn’t a veteran but he was a security guard for an uranium holding facility during the sixties and seventies. Unfortunately the combination of my mother and father’s genes has rendered our generation completely unsuitable for military life. My thirteen illnesses and autoimmune disorders just don’t seem to care

Story 1: I would not be surprised if Captain was guilty of stolen valor

[@The_Frankenstein]

Close to 1million keep going my bro!

The PX ranger thinks he’s a veteran because he plays COD 😂😂😂

[@dalehill2980]

i used to work at a Walmart, and people do infact wait around and do crap like this to people, i call them parking lot prowlers 😅

Worst part of stolen valor is actually wanting to be a soldier 🤮

[@gotenblack2542]

for the last story ya op needs to get over herself like just cause the bf makes a lot of money doesn't mean that is something to get upset about you should be happy cause he will have a lot of money to support you and a family if you have one with him

[@randommanlady]

I wouldn't be surprised if it was my grandpa who was "captain" he does so much of this crap to other people despite him himself only having served 6 months not on active duty and faking a disability sorry if this was him

[@tylersands8685]

Seriously, my MOTHER is a veteran and she doesn't decorate her car at all!

[@hugznotdrugz1234]

Wow. Starting off strong. Story 1…so most of my family have been in some way in the military. My dad was Air Force got a few uncles in the navy. One uncle in the marines and an uncle who was national guard. I also have a cousin who was career army. He just recently retired and several of his kids are following after him. None of them have that level of stuff on them or their vehicles. They might have a bumper sticker but that’s all.

[@JettMann8]

On a general basis, most veterans who actually walked the walk and talked the talk don't broadcast it for all to see. We just want to live our lives. But if you make us have to get ourselves dirty again, we take that to heart and we fight nasty. This was kot a petty move the story 1 pulled, he simply eliminated his adversary with an equal force counterstrike. That's just common sense.

[@dannihenson3420]

Honestly I've never been one to believe veterans have all the bs memorabilia. It's like designing your life around your job.

4:13 I mean sometimes you gotta prove it for discounts or stuff, stolen valor is a thing my guy

[@BaxterAndLunala]

First Story: That guy with the decked out truck clearly wasn't a veteran, and is obviously disrespecting veterans everywhere suggesting that's how a veteran goes to work everyday. My mom is a veteran, and she might have a truck under her name, but she doesn't drive it. If he were a veteran, he'd be an obvious disgrace as veterans don't drive that kind of garbage and brag about being in the military.

[@SirPlocks]

I heard a lot of veterans don't like the that you for your service so I don't say it anymore

[@Dartkitten]

I misread the title and thought it said vegan which got my instrest; like how do you prove your vegan lol. Anyway great video as always.

[@jsanchez23]

Honestly feel like everyone is actually missing the point on that final story. I don't think it's really hardly about the the guy to begin with, he just serve as a new perspective and look in the mirror. Whether he worked hard to get there or not, shes putting in tons of hours and it sounds like despite that, she's barely making enough to live and exist. She's questioning her career path and wondering if she made a mistake, as whether he worked hard to get there, he's working significantly less hours and making around 10 times what she does working more. So she'd understandably like to have a better work life balance to be able to at least aspire to to work less back breaking hours and still be successful and able to enjoy the money she makes working hard. Though in similar financial fields there often is the potential for nepotism, so she may admittedly resent that given she feels unequipped for said job based on the testing, but he was too and got it through his interactions with the ceo. Obviously if she is resenting him for that reason, that does suck and is kind of toxic, but I still don't think the majority of her sentiment is about that. Its more about herself and feeling like despite her own hard work, she feels like a failure and doesn't know how to potentially change that. But seeing his success holds a mirror up to her own personal career path and makes her wonder what she did differently and if she can still shift her career path. Now that she realizes how bad of a position shes in comparatively, as before she didnt have another point of reference for someone in a similar field and place in their life. I know everyone seems to think all she cares about him is about his financial situation, but I think thats kind of a massive leap and assumption. As we just don't know or have any additional info to inform such a belief. Especially as this post was about her career and financials, so thats what shes talking about, its not relevant to mention how she loves his passions or other facets of him as a person, as its not contextually relevant. As I really don't think this is about him for the most part, same thing could have happened if she happened to talk to a random stranger at a bar in her same field and found out how her circumstances compare and fall short of that stranger. She was ignorant to the fact that she was doing worse than she thought was expected in that field. I mean if I'm wrong and this is somehow the entire focal point of their relationship, then ya that obviously sucks and is awful, but without additional context to inform that, I don't think its fair to assume this is a red flag and she actually is toxic in a relationship. That's one thing I do really dislike about a lot of these reddit stories, so many people fill in blanks with details that just don't exist to fuel their own narrative and beliefs based on little actual basis or merit. Doesn't mean they couldn't be right, but when every post triggers red flags and outcry to divorce or breakup based on very little information. Since sure some of the times they're right, but when the worst is assumed for every post, obviously it cant always be the case. Sometimes it really is just a case of Hanlon's and or Occam's razor. Just wish we could more often let the facts inform our feelings and not our feelings inform the facts.

[@AndreDoesStupidStuff]

Epic video ❤

[@Charles-7]

that story really sympathize with me, being that I too have autism, he was being empathetic to someone like him, which warms my heart to see even disabled people helps others with conditions like that too, and as far that jerk who made a big fuss over it, he can just eat the dirt for all I care of his attitude towards disabled people, so yeah I just wish more people like the op exists, and less of that jerk.

[@HWC91]

You guys should be working together and being in love you know for being in love not money money corrupts. So if you really don't know what to do, the best advice you can get is work on yourself. Stop being so jealous and don't be entitled. Thank you and have a wonderful day.

1:47 Ok buddy, how about you get out of the recruiting office and actually do something. Just because you went to basic doesn’t mean you know who a veteran is and who is not. For example, I will stand for the Pledge/Anthem as semblance to the armed forces, however I do not hold my hand over my heart as I refuse to “swear an oath” to a nation that is corrupt. I do that and yet I’m still an American citizen. You don’t need a overly-patriotic vehicle to be a veteran. In fact, a good portion of veterans I’ve spoken to only have a couple of stickers at most on their vehicles.
