I can kind of understand the mother's confusion in the tour guide story.

A decision of that importance can, and should, only be handled by the tour guide. 😂😂😂

Story 3 - I agree about hoping that the Ahole got fired after his boss heard about how rude and disrespectful he was to OP. I mean OP said (I’ve lost count as to how many) that she doesn’t work for the Airport but WITH the Airport dealing with Rental Cars to the guy.

[@kitarrah1422]

Yeah, and OP even told him when the check in desk for the airline closed, and that he should hurry. And it isn't a big airport, so it's not like he couldn't find it.

[@kawliga9890]

Story 2: Sometimes you get rejected, that just happens, but don't trying to find someone to throw all the blame on, that's not a good idea

[@nicolasjoly6948]

It is ok to try to find why... otherwise, how do you do better next time? But call the admission service... don't try to ambush somebody. At max, she should just has ask for number or a specific person to call. Even if OP had a word to say in the decision, if it is a so reputable school, they probably receive ten times the number of application vs what they need. I would probably consider OP very good to remember all the accepted. And if she remember a rejected name and reason, it's probably not good news for the applicant : it means it was very bad or particular! But I guess the mom is used to just walk over people until she get what she is asking for / get answer. She might actually be rich.

Story 2. The One thing a real millionaire will ever admit in public is that they are a millionaire. I worked for a family of millionaires and they don't even dress that much better than everyone else. They had a 20 car garage of expensive cars, but they never drove anything other than a Lexus. They also gave so much money to the local college that their kids didn't even have to apply for acceptance.

[@christinalyons9038]

That's the thing, idk what school this was, but if any of what she said were true, that her daughter had near perfect ACT scores & they were millionaires then she would've been accepted into the school. Also anyone who truly believes that student giving the university tour has anything to do with admissions probably isn't intelligent enough to even get into their local community college. Not hating on community colleges, I know they have some good ones. I just know they're easier to gain admission to than a 4yr university

[@JamesWeekley-o9x]

Story 1: "solve your own problems" "Okay. I quit. problem solved." Okay. I've listened to the rest. That's exactly what OP did. Then throwing that quote back in John's face. Well done, OP.

[@themayhemofmadness7038]

Saying “I’m a millionaire,” in this kind of situation, is the same as saying “I know the owner.” 99% of the time, it’s completely false. But I would love to hear if OP asked if any complaints about her not accepting someone to the college were made, and the the admissions department response was. I bet if Karen did complain about her precious daughter being excluded, that the admissions office laughed in her face. 😂

Airport Story: If I was OP, the moment I finished explaining that I don't work for the Airline or Airport and he starts getting Rude and Belligerent, I'd politely ask him to step aside, call "Next passenger Please." and if he refused to move, I'd immediately call for Security to remove him from my counter so I can help my actual customers...

Airport/rental car story: I wonder if the jerk managed to keep his job after OP told his boss what ACTUALLY happened. Personally, I'd have been calling airport security/TSA to remove the jerk. Restaurant story: Yeah, you would think someone who didn't want the police in his life would be smart enough not to do things that would get the police involved. Wally World story: Well done sir!

Story 3: OP should have made a point of mentioning the guy was at the car rental service and not even at an airline desk. The guy probably got fired anyway but that really would have cemented the guy's loss of his job. Story 4: If the chicken really was undercooked (it wasn't, and the context of the story makes that very clear), that's a legitimate "you can put people in hospital and potentially kill them" problem, so getting upset about it is valid. When I was a kid, my parents had to yell at a staff member in a (very expensive) restaurant over a similar issue with a half-cooked piece of fish.

[@hollyhartwick3832]

Just for some added info, in the last story, the place the OP works at is called a "juvenile preplacement facility." As the OP said, it's a temporary accommodation for youth who are waiting for a spot in a foster home or group home. I have some passing familiarity with such facilities, and they're a sad testament to the overburdened state of the children's services system.

Actually millionaires are not necessarily THAT rich. All that means is that you have $1,000,000 in the bank. I suspect that a lot of upper married couples where both spouses work and at least one has a good corporate job would have $1,000,000 in their combined retirement accounts. That doesn't mean that they could justify spending over $100,000 on a car. Inflation has made being a millionaire less of a flex than it used to be.

Story #2: I used to do alumni interviews for my university... meaning that I *did* have a say in admissions decisions. The alumni interviewer absolutely should not have said anything about what her chances supposedly were. I bet that, if that happened at all (and I wouldn't be at all surprised if it never did and they were just lying about it) it was simply the interviewer's way of getting the demonic duo of mother and daughter off their back, but this is part of why you don't give the kids you interview any information on how you're going to report on them, or what you think their odds are... because it's effectively throwing someone else under a bus, by raising expectations that the other folks will have to puncture.
