VINWiki, Thank you for allowing us to come by to share some more of our fails. As embarrassing as it is, your audience seem to love them! We have now learned to embrace our failures hoping others will learn from them.

[@paisis123]

How or where do I apply to be a Valet Driver? Im a local in Atlanta and I have the credentials!

@Ken Norcott They scare us when we get those calls

[@Lord_flacko_jodyee]

Great story’s bro as always 💪🏾

[@theanomalous1401]

I absolutely love your stories, Alex. Thanks for sharing them with us. Now for the downside, I had first suggested to Ed and Vinwiki that Randy Pobst do the next AMA. Then after we were introduced to Christopher Michaels and everything changed. Now you have me convinced that all 3 of you have to do an AMA. It would be epic since you have such incredible stories each time you appear.

haha gotta love the dodge just broke down on them. Gotta love dodge for their A spec reliability

[@brandoncaldwell95]

Yep, just when i needed brakes pulling my 15,000lbs gooseneck cattle trailer ,as it doesnt have brakes itself, the ABS module failed in my ram dually. No cruise control or traction control. Benefits are i can have fun drifting the truck now and full power launches. Downfall is the 68rfe will not last any burnouts let alone drifting or do i care to spend the $350 and have my truck stuck at a dealer for 5 days as they need it there before ordering the piece and will not sell it to me personally.. They will not loan out their new 3500 duallies either as the used market is hot right now for them

I did valet for two years in Portland until COVID and I did overnight so I wouldn't have to deal with very many people. I was getting paid 17 dollars an hour to park and retrieve about 4 cars a shift. Covid messed up a great thing.

[@mkconte]

One time when I was a bus boy, the valet let me park a new Corvette, and it definitely surprised me that he took that risk so casually. I never asked to drive anything, but I'm sure we talked about cars a good bit whenever I had time to go out for a break. We are both lucky that worked out, because the temptation was real, to take the new 'vette on the street and let it rip. I just parked it responsibly in the back lot though, wasn't that hard-up for adrenaline. The end

[@MianCowell]

Bonus point for including shrewd negotiation

[@Hans_Moleman925]

I was a valet at the Golden Nugget in Atlantic City for a year and a half. Two cars got stolen while I worked there. Hilariously enough, they were BOTH Honda Accords.

[@ValetStories]

Easy cars to steal at the time.

[@Raylarious]

Thank you!!!!! We needed more stories man lol I did valet in 08 so I luv hearing these lol

[@mikey2111]

Let's see a guy "borrows" a car and every once in a while goes out and drives it for a bit for 6 or 7 hours. Dare i say drugdealer?

[@mkconte]

Maybe...not a very smart drug dealer if they steal a car that someone is sure to miss as soon as they finish dinner, and then make deliveries with it in the same night and same city though 😂

The best way to prevent a car from been stolen is to get a manual… except it also bothers quite a number of valets…

[@redneckwithajeep5001]

Should be a requirement for a valet to know how to drive a manual. That’s like my 66 Chevy a mechanic broke my turn signal lever trying to turn the wipers on Damn state inspection

Wrap it around a pole while driving on ice or less than legal tires. Mke aure you have full coverage. Problem solves itself.

[@jackpalmer2549]

@@brandoncaldwell95 I'm not sure what the situation is the in US, but where I live an insurance company would 100% deny your claim if you fail to keep your car in roadworthy condition

[@brandoncaldwell95]

@@jackpalmer2549 they don't care here. I know of many cars less than legal. Hard to believe as how laxed the requirements are for my state. I know of a person who traveled to quickly on street tires in mud with loose gravel at a curve with pavement. Gone through a phone pole totaling the jeep wrangler as inability to stop. Also know of a few roll over accidents with bald tires in the rain. Total loss on a sh*tbox vehicle only worth maybe $500. Insurance covers the incidents without issue. They don't investigate the legality of roadworthness. Just who is at fault and what happened to cause the incident. If 2 vehicles got into an accident though stickered to be road worthy and the person admits to the vehicle not being road worthy, the problem can be presented in court if the person tried fighting a ticket if presented one. For instance, had a person go through a few street sign poles. He claimed he lost control and tried hitting the brakes to stop but couldn't. In reality, his turned to look into the back seat at their family member while entering a curve. Tracks on the ground shown the straight path and no braking applied. When family came to help pull the vehicle out that had minimal damage, no tow truck required, they tried claiming "oh these SUVs have terrible brakes. I have one like it and can say it doesnt like to stop. Been in the shop here recently for the problem they couldnt fix". To an officer, it says the vehicle was not road worthy yet used for it. The officer can take the vin as its pulled when running the plate, along with Insurance card info, to the dealer to confirm if the vehicle has been there. Their answer can transfer blame if a record is pulled from the dealer on its service.

This dude is awful. As an owner/manager of a business, you need to take personal responsibility for any shortcomings of your employees. This guy consistently says "totally the valet's fault." My guy, it's all your operation. If they're messing up, that means that you have already messed up somewhere (hiring that individual, not properly training them, etc). Consistently bags on his employees, says he doesn't want to have to pay them, and takes no responsibility for anything bad that happens. Look at his other videos on this channel if you think I'm wrong.

Vettes, Mustangs, Camaros & TAs, Porsche 911 Turbos, M3s, occasional exotics, etc. Stole coke, weed, cash, guns, jewelry, CDs, leather jackets.
