This is how you build employee loyalty and a good work environment. Happy employees work better and make happier customers. No wonder OP's bussinesses are successful.

[@ReverieNightengale]

It couldn't have been cheap, either. Looking up how much hysterectomies cost in America, it adds up anywhere between $31,000-49,000 depending on what kind of procedure was done. I can imagine how distraught the employee was to get that bill.

[@justicedunham4088]

How is it legal to retroactively refuse to cover a medical procedure? That sounds extremely illegal.

[@gonun69]

Right? And the whole BS about they only inform big clients on such changes. You can't just change a contract and on top of that not even inform about it.

[@Wendy_O._Koopa]

I assume it's extremely illegal, however it's actually cheaper for him to just pay the bill outright than take them to court over it... which is exactly what they're counting on. However, he found a way to keep it from happening again, to all branches of his business; also his extended family, apparently. That's about a 10/10 on the "Whoops Scale."

[@ReverieNightengale]

It happens. Back when I had a reduction mammaplasty, I did everything necessary to make sure my insurance would cover it until they finally approved. Then I had my surgery, and months later got a notice from my insurance company that they were "investigating" the claim because they deemed it a "pre-existing condition". At around that time, the Affordable Care Act was passed and companies were prohibited from going after people like me who needed medical procedures for pre-existing conditions, so they stopped hounding me for it. Thanks, Obama!

[@andykelp6008]

It likely isn't legal, but insurance companies will try to weasel out of paying whenever they can. It costs them no money to decline every claim (maybe costs good will, but if the claimant is powerless, they will weigh any loss of goodwill against tens of thousands of dollars (in this case) to pay the claim. I have seen many insurance companies not even take a claim seriously until a lawsuit is filed against them.

[@afuzzycreature8387]

probably isn't but if a country is corrupt enough a lawsuit probably isn't worth their while. If they're ok with applying retroactive policies on people going out a full year who knows what else they can get away with

People in the thread were asking me why I didn't ask for money up front, and to be honest, the thought of them stiffing me wasn't even in a possibility in my mind. The reason it jumped up to £7k was because I knew the installation from my old company was £8k, so asking for more than that would have made them look elsewhere. I'm glad you enjoyed the story.

[@danielmarek4609]

Don't mess with an Engineer.... After listening to this one I had to laugh. I did field service for a long time in the automation controls field. A competitor of the company I worked for had a machine that used our controls, not their own. Their machine went down and no matter what they did they couldn't get it to run. They didn't want to call us, a competitor, and tried working with the machine's builder in another city. They reloaded the program, changed out all of the controls hardware and still could not get the machine to run. So they bit the bullet and called us. I got the call and went to the site. When I got there the receptionist said "Oh they are waiting for you." and I signed in and was lead back to the machine. The building was silent as this machine produced what was needed for everything else and everyone else to work. The head of the company was standing there in his suit and started to bitch me out for them being down for two weeks. I replied you just called us and those two weeks are not our fault. I said I need an electrician and an operator. I had my computer on my shoulder and my jacket was still zipped up. I was lead back to the machine where I asked what was going on. They said the machine just won't run. So I asked the operator to try and make anything run on the machine. She started by pressing a button and told me a pump should have started. The electrician already had a computer hooked up to the machine, and a set of electrical prints. I asked him to show me the pump in the schematics, he did. From there I got an address to look up in the program, then asked the operator to press the button. Looking at the program everything needed was met accept one item. I searched back two steps to an input that was not on. I grabbed the prints, paged back to the input and saw what it was. Seven different things were wired to it and all seven needed to be made. So I asked for the first one, it was good, and so on. When I got to the last one, a switch, I found it and looked back at the contacts, they were open. The switch was the "Off - Run" selector switch. It was in the "Off" position .... for the last two weeks. I switched into "Run" and told the operator to try starting the machine. She pressed the Start button and the machine came to life churning out parts. The plant went silent as I was at the machine for about a minute. The VP motioned for the electrician to come over to him. I was standing at the machine, coat still on, and my computer still hanging off my shoulder, when the electrician came back and said the VP was embarrassed and asked for me to go. As I was walking back out I had to pass him and all the big wigs. He then asked me what I did. I replied "I just turned the machine on". I was back at the receptionist signing out 5 minutes after walking in the building. The customer got a 4 hour minimum bill. That one always makes me laugh.

i remember there was a kind of a similar enough story that made the news in my country... there was a bussinessman that was abducted for something like 20-40 days and the news made his name popular. And there was a second pretty huge CEO with a very similar family name (like a single extra letter, that is fully pronounced though, so the two names cna be easily ddifferentiated) so two of the CEOs truck drivers get into an accident in some internal shop transfer of something and their insurance denies them coverage because they are insured only for client deliveries or some bulshit of that sort, and whilst the vehicle damages where probably something like 10k, the medical bill of one of the guy to not lose his arm went into half a million (he either had to be transported to another country for surgery or a team had to be rbought in or sth costly that i do not remember). anyways the insurance does not accept to pay and the big very popular company's (in the country) name isnt the one that is visible, it is some generic transport and logistics name that is like a subsidiary and nobody knows. apparently the CEO tries to get it solved through legal, financial or whatever else and he fails. he then goes in person and they tell him "oh, because you are famous you think you can come here and buly us into making half a million in payments? go f* yourself" and kick him out. that was the point he got a news crew involved to wire him with a hidden camera for his next visit. (htere were some middle points that i do not remember) he goes in wired and tells them "do you know who i am?" and they say they do, because his family name is well known... etc.. and they again tell him that they are kicking him out. he call in his laywer who apparrently has prepared a big lawsuit for breach of contract, because apparently they didn't have a good enough reason to deny the payment. And then the lawyer starts pulling out lawsuit after lawsuit from all the other companies that operate under the same mama-company of no-trust in the services due to proven ineffectiveness they start going crazy. Next day the insurance company EU CEO is sent to the country because they suddenly realise that its not the "famous" bussinessman who probably has like 30 or 50 emplyees, but its the other one. The guy that has the biggest toy megastores in the country, that has expanded that to like another 10 countries and te corporate offices are in this country, with so so many delivery and logistic companies and port and rail and so many other connected companies... Only the toy chain emplayes like 2500 people, but all together he has approximately 36000 people insured, and over 1000 vehicles, and over 200 propertie insured with them. apparently the hit from just loosing them as a client was forcing the isnureance branch in our conuntry to close down, but the lawsuit which was asking for all the active contracts to be refunded, and some fines and so many other things, made a top 15 european insurance (or at least i think they were this big) to pull out of 20% of europe to cut its losses. and then the CEO went on some media tour to bash them even more...

His friend and one of the founding members of the muppet’s Jerry Nelson was having a problem with their insurance provider. Jerry’s daughter Christine had cystic fibrosis, and after years of treatments, he’d been informed by their provider that they would no longer cover her. Jim wouldn’t stand for that and changed providers for his entire company. When Jerry tried to thank him, Jim just kind of shrugged and said “That’s what insurance companies are for”. He also granted a wish for Christine, who had wanted to be an actress. You can see her in a scene with her dad in The Great Muppet Caper, where the two are walking in the park together.

That first story is *exactly* why I never buy into the "people love their insurance and they love their freedom!" argument against M4A. Literally NO ONE loves their insurance. No one, no matter how many politicians and insurance companies will tell you that you do. You don't love your insurance. What you'd love is to have medical needs like that employee actually covered, without having the rug pulled out from under you months later when the company decides they don't feel like covering the costs for the insurance that you already pay way too much for. If anyone tries to tell you that people love their insurance and love having the "freedom" to choose which insurance plan will HOPEFULLY screw them over the least... don't. It's a scam and cases like that story show you why - you don't love your insurance and your insurance doesn't give a toss about you. So glad that OP mercilessly tore them down, the world is better off with one less greedy company ruining people's lives. We'd be better off if all medical insurance companies went the way of the dodo and we just adapted to a universal healthcare system.

I imagine in pretty much any country, taking this issue to court would get you this statement in writing allowing you to send those e-mails and a payout (at minimum cost of the treatment).

You upload at 8 am my time which is right when I get to work so it's perfect for having something to listen to starting my day.

[@annoyinguser]

It's interesting that always when youtube recommends me an older video I already listen I check the channel and sometimes I find a new video uploaded up a couple of tens of seconds up to a minute.

Insurance company : We don't deal with the likes of you! OP : I have a card, a special, beautifull card. The UNO reverse card. BEHOLD THY POWER YA PEASANTS!

[@Ragehunger]

It's so damn frustrating hearing about how insurance fraud is a reasonably punishable crime, but insurance companies can get away with nonchalantly denying coverage that they don't have a good enough reason to do and are somehow within their full rights to use or change vague clauses in their contracts as legal loopholes. And then they have the nerve to talk down on their customers as insignificant. Just imagine how many people some insurance companies have screwed over who didn't and still don't have the legal or influential power to punish them even a fraction as much as OP did.

[@mrfixa7702]

for the last story, OP shoulda gotten out a toolkit, set up for like half an hour, building up the tension, and the fix the problem, then pack up

[@NazeehYauqoob]

Please bring back the r/puppybloopers

[@redheadbedhead2983]

YES

[@crimsonshadow1477]

The op in the first story really does show that people can come from wealth and privilege and still be a decent person, based on the back story I think the op is from South Korea, so being respectful and going off at the blatant disrespect of the insurance company makes sense...good on you op, you're the kind of boss people would kill to work for

[@PapasBlox]

That machine story. So Jake reached out to OP and said he coudnt afford the company's install service(let's say $150, up from the 100 Company used to charge), but then agrees to give OP double what the company used to charge(200)? Yea, seems sus. I would've been wary of that.

[@tehking111]

Believe it or not it would have cost about 8k for engineers to install it. Double my rate for a job like this was about £300 an hour which gave me about £2400. It made sense in their eyes, until they screwed me over.

[@PapasBlox]

@@tehking111 that's cool, my numbers were just examples. I don't know what the real numbers were because I don't even know what kind of machine were talking about.

[@Linaskye143]

I think the wealthy business owner doesn’t give himself enough credit for being who he is. He could have struggled more, yeah, but struggles don’t always make a person better. He did well for himself through some connections, but you still don’t become as successful as he did without some sort of work ethic and integrity. Then the way he cared for his employee?? That’s amazing. Good people are good people.

[@darko-man8549]

What I love in the first story is how this guy, you’d think would be a selfish, stuck up rich ceo, completely takes down some pompous rich people trying to exploit the unfortunate

[@sheeptasticSeb]

The first story sounds like it should belong on r/that happened...

[@maieen2665]

You're not wrong. It's an entertaining story, nonetheless.

[@ainzooalgown3927]

If someone can find the news articles, then we can confirm it did happen.

[@seraglioborneo2803]

Last: Search for an OP who is only one of SEVEN people in UK who can do one type of restoration job on old buildings. The GM of the larger project pisses him off and OP leaves and warns the other 6. Obviously they are too busy! A huge fine is levied when GM can't "deliver" the goods on time!

[@sarahader8118]

Hi Rslash. Wanted to say that I really enjoy your videos; some of them just astounded me on certain levels, like with the entitled parents and the pro revenge peoplewill get on those who deserves it. Also I love the puppy bloopers you have sometimes with your dogs.

[@rattywoof5259]

0:21 - OMG, someone who actually knows how to use the 'plural possessive' apostrophe! Well done sir.

[@NEPAAlchey]

Most cable companies have monopolies in their area. Even in major cities they have made maps and assign territories and if you don't like your one provider you are screwed. They have perfectly skirted the laws put in place to prevent this.

[@wadehiggins1919]

It is rare when an employer truly goes to bat for their employees using their power and influence to benefit those who have been cheated out of a benefit they were fully entitled to receive.

[@harryboyes2812]

That first story ain't pro revenge. It's full on nuclear scorched earth revenge with radioactive fallout dessert. Company: "We don't deal with small clients." OP: "So you have chosen Armageddon."

[@fourfurrypotatoes]

Insurance companies really are evil.

[@callumh4991]

The fact that he WAS a big client and he wasn't told shows that their whole deal was bullshit.

Got travel insurance with ok rates (this was a condition of my visa in the US). Got sick, submitted a claim. The bill comes back 4 times higher. After 8 (!!!) months of back and forth with disgustingly rude customer service, after involving the Attorney General in my state, I finally got an answer of why: they had an addenda to their contract, which was AN ENTIRE CONTRACT BUT WITH DIFFERENT NUMBERS. Of course, they failed to mention the addenda when we were discussing the rates. How on Earth is this legal? In the end, I had to pay only two times the amount, not four, "as a courtesy". I lived in Russia for 20 years. The US insurance company called IMG Global is officially, by a huge margine, the worse organization I've ever had a displeasure of dealing with. That includes the my home State's Duma. I made the fucking Duma to see the light once, but I failed to do so with IMG Global. Absolute disgrace.

[@bjordan6694]

That 1st story is the most satisfying story you have ever told

[@andrewlanglois6362]

12:50 Jake was doing an antsy pansy dance for Months, while you were out working Your Job without worries. All Easy, With The Touch of 1 Button!! And you can just press his buttons now.

[@sarasmr4278]

Anybody else having to search for rslash and go to his page every morning? I watch it every day. KZbin used to feed it to me.

[@utha5034]

Loved story 1. Hate insurance companies.

[@HappilyHomicidalHooligan]

Jake: WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN, WHY HAVEN'T YOU BEEN ANSWERING MY CALLS? Me: Why would I answer the calls of a Crook that Stiffed me? What in HELL makes you think I'd be even remotely willing to work for you after what you did to me? Me: However, I WILL be willing to finish installing the unit on the following, NON-NEGOTIABLE conditions: 1) You will sign a Contract before I resume work, that Contract will lay out this and all other terms of work and of course will be Legally Binding. 2) Once you sign the Contract and take your copy, you WILL pay me UP FRONT AND IN FULL with Cash, Bank Draft (Cashiers Check) or Money Order before I resume work, Credit/Debit Cards and Non-Certified Checks are not acceptable. Agree to those terms and I'll be happy to finish the installation.
