"If you don't want people to search for better opportunities...pay them better" ☕
Better pay is always nice but I feel like a healthy work place is just as important, if not more. I mean, you knew what you were being paid when you signed the contract, however, nobody knows how's the work environment like until they're inside. Sometimes, better pay doesn't make up for the bs you have to deal with from other people, especially your co-workers and/or boss. I can tolerate a minimum wage job, now, crappy people? No thanks.
👏👏👏
@@ivoryowl excellent point!!! Hostile work environments suck, it’s not worth my sanity
Exactly, which is why I have a couple interviews on Saturday!! I've been at this pos restaurant for a year, and the owner is like no other (I've been in this business for 27yrs), he makes all the women servers carry all of the cooks plates, big heavy ceramic plates, iron skillets, literally we do everything, it's disgusting that grown ass men can't carry their own plates, that they need, we take our plates that we use, so they need to do the same..I dnt knw if it's his culture, he's Egyptian and think women are only good to breed, this is Cody's Original Roadhouse in Tarpon Springs, FL. Look at the reviews, the customers write really bad reviews about the owner, because they see him scream at the employees constantly, yelling "Runner" at the top of his lungs, because he's too cheap to pay for a runner, so while we all are slammed, with lines out the door, you see this man acting like an imbecile..Now, I usually like to bring my tables food, but sometimes it's legit impossible..He also degrates the women, asking them "what happen to you, you used to be good" this is what he said to a newer employee, that decided to have 2 second conversation with another, while the restaurant was empty, of course she quit, we have the biggest turn over you can imagine..And everyone says they're hiring, but that's a complete lie..I have a job, have a good resume, and 2 college degrees, I can do every job in the restaurant (mainly because my dad owned many, so I knw how to cook/prep cook, fry, serve, bartend, host, do dish, and have yrs of experience managing), all these places complaining that they can't find help is a joke..I may be 43, but I dnt think I look that bad..Anyways, finally got a call back from a couple places, and have interviews scheduled!!🤞
@@ivoryowl crappy people are everywhere , they cannot be avoided sadly. Hence the need for adequate compensation.
Also, inflation is a thing, which means your wage will be automatically worth less with each passing year, until the same wage you were paud 10 years ago equals the equivalent of minimum wage in practice.
Frequent pay rises usually simply mean you ARE earning the exact same as before, in reality, as the dollar itself loses value as inflation rises.
Your dollar gets you less resources over time. Eventually it will not cover your living expenses.
Not giving people pay rises pushes them into working poverty, eventually.
Here's a petty revenge story. When I was 18, fresh out of college I worked as a receptionist in a family run plumbing and electrics company. They treated me like poo, because I was young they thought they could get away with it. After about a year they started firing a few key members of staff, including the accountant, it was all a bit suspicious. At that time I got tonsillitis and was on antibiotics and they insist on a doctor's note. They got one. I was off for about a week because I couldn't even swallow, I was in so much pain. While I was off, I got a letter in the mail, from my employer, firing me. This is actually not legal in UK especially after a doctor's note. I was upset and angry. Now, to the fun bit. Did I mention my Dad worked for the local city council who was responsible for handing out contracts for plumbing and electrical works? The company I worked for used to get a lot of contracts from the council (My Dad) but mysteriously didn't get even one after I received my letter, weird that ;) Company went bust less than a year later. Sweet petty revenge, My Dad is awesome
Cherish that man.
@@ayamempress1579 I do, he died a couple of months ago, but he was a legend x
From what you've shared with us, he seemed like a really good dad.
My condolences 🙏🏻
Wish I could drop more than one like here
Wish I could like this twice!
I was one of the first women in the country to have a morning drive radio show back in the late 70's. The sexual harassment was horrific and I ultimately left after four years due to the stress.
The station brass decided to sue me for my unemployment benefits, because I had done one 30 second commercial for someone for about fifty bucks.
Haha!! I had saved every smutty memo, from the news director and every bad poem from the married program director, all helpfully written on company letterhead!
Needless to say we went before the arbitrator and I won.
Bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I hope you have had a great life.
I hope you counter-sued for some $$$ 🙃
Hurrah and I salute you!!! Sorry you went through any of it though, minus getting your own show!
I hope the program director's wife divorced him and she befriended you to piss him off.
💪 It was the little 'Haha!' in your story that did it for me lol, they totally had that coming
The only thing worse than too many emails is too many meetings that could've been emails.
Too many meetings IS an issue. I used to be a paralegal, and one of the worst sins of my horrible employer was that he would give you a long list of tasks for the day, and then he would keep pulling you into the office every five minutes, sometimes for an hour at a time (mainly to tell us long, meandering tales about his past exploits or lessons taught to him by his mentor); and then he would call you back to the office five minutes after you got back to your desk to ask for the documents you were supposed to have gotten done, despite never being allowed to be at your desk to do them. Even if I could prepare some notes on a notepad, while he talked (something he frowned on), I couldn't type anything, which made it impossible. If you complained or tried to explain the issue, he would have another meeting to tell you either about your bad attitude and/or about how much better the previous paralegals or secretaries were than you (because they supposedly could be in two places at once).
@@DogFlamingoXIII obviously, I don't know what your job entailed, or if it was possible, but I would have tried to find a way to use the meeting time to do the actual work, ignoring what was said in the meeting
if my inbox was being overloaded, I would have blocked the sender, until they discussed it with me, and we were able to compromise
Amen!!! And meetings that conclude with a decision to hold a further meeting!!!!!😱
I would rather an email than to have to speak to people face to face.
I wanted to add a nice boss story. I got really sick from Covid & wound up in a wheelchair, couldn’t work, it became Long Covid. I was on extended leave for more than 8 months and she continued to pay me. Not my full salary but something & enough to help keep me afloat. She checked on me frequently & was so incredibly kind. I’ve had a long line of horrific bosses & am still so touched by her kindness. Treat people well and they will never forget.
Hope you’re doing better now.
This wasn't work but it did involve someone's business. A friend had a neighbour whose tree was scratching on her upstairs window and leaving "tree snot" all over the window. It was one of those little windows in the peak of the house that didn't open. She's disabled but asked her neighbour if her able bodied adolescent son could climb up there and cut the branch, the neighbour said 'no', she can't touch the tree because, her (my friend's) fence was over on their property line to begin with so the WHOLE TREE was on their property. It was causing such a mess on her window, she finally got a mediator. They got a surveyor and it turned out the neighbour's garage pad was 1' onto my friend's property. Not just the garage pad but a brand new photo studio he'd just had built on it. He had to take down the building, re-pour the garage pad (all of this wouldn't have had to be done but for HIM) and move everything 1' over. He was complaining to my friend...who just said to him "I asked you to cut ONE branch."
I love this story😂
I had been unemployed for a year due to my son having a severe brain injury in a car crash. I tried and tried and finally got hired at a nearby place in my field of interest, with a govt program (not welfare) subsidizing half my pay for the first few months. My manager used it against me frequently as a put down. Well, a job came up at the top end of what I was doing, at a national company- so basically about a 3x pay rise for me plus huge benefits. I heard through the grapevine that I should apply. Went down there on my lunch, no resume or anything. Got the job. Heard later that my manager had gone for an interview and failed. Bonus points was that later on the shop foreman said my old boss kept asking what I have said about him- nothing :)
Hope your son is okay ... My stepbrother was just hospitalized for an abscess in his brain. He was acting strange at work and his foreman called an ambulance. He had 2 seizures in the ambulance. Took a few days for the doctors to figure out it was an abscess. They drained it, kept him in ICU for a few days, and he went home yesterday.
@@beccahetrick1469 Speedy recovery to your stepbrother.
I hope your son is okay now and I'm glad you found a better job away from that a-hole.
I hope things continue to improve for you and your son. I enjoyed that your former old boss totally lost out to you. That's why he was so mean; he picked up you were better qualified.
Preach! I’ve worked in so many restaurants that don’t provide a staff meal. It blows my mind. I am usually in a sous chef or line cook position so I always fed anyone who was hungry. I got in trouble for it a lot but I didn’t care. Any time I got in trouble I said it was my staff meal. Which only cooks or head chefs got…. I never ate a meal because I was constantly tasting food before it went out anyway.
Awesome.
In poorest states of Europe you, by law, get : meal, every day from company or monthly payment for it, payed transport to work or monthly payment for that purpose, and granted payment so you don't need tips (but they help, if you work in service).
I was a self employed landscaper for years, usually working by myself. When I hired casual labour I paid them a good wage in cash, and took them for lunch. They were a godsend for me.
@@Chahlie be proud of that, I’ve also done construction and landscaping in my life. The best bosses were the ones who did stuff like that, makes the employees want to come to work everyday when they feel valued.
Same here
I worked for a small electric motor repair shop, and they kept a fridge in the break room that was stocked with drinks and snacks. They also bought us all lunch a couple times a month, a big and delicious cake for everyone's birthday, and if a job was a rush job, went late after normal hours or was just generally hard/crappy, the boss would buy all the techs a beer when they were done. It was a hard job, even for us on the customer service side, so they did things like that to let us know they appreciated us. Genuinely good people.
Yes! It's the Fezziwig vs Scrooge paradox. Scrooge may have grasped onto more cash with his cold, stringy, fingers, but Fezziwig had a very successful business AND a joyful life filled with loving family, happy customers, and grateful & respectful employees.
We arw fezziwigs
With all these, I wanted to add the story of one of my buddies and her awesome boss... Yes, they actually DO exist! In the early 90s, my friend was a struggling college student and got a job at a telesurvey place. Since her degree plan was in computer science she knew more about the systems than anyone and was quickly transferred to the I.T. department. She rose through the ranks and by the time she got her master's degree she was offered the I.T. Directors' job. However, since she was simply exceptional at what she did she was offered a job that paid almost three times what the directors' job could. Her boss strongly recommended her to take the job and even sent all of her company accolades to the new company for the interview. She not only got the job but the former telesurvey place, which no longer used cold calls, became the go to place for career advancement for students for both universities in town. Everyone won, in the end.
Yay, a happy story!
This is what many people fail to understand, it's better to help each other out and rise together than to step on people and eventually get your come upins!
the differense between a leader and a boss!
I think if more bosses used the "win-win" mentality rather than "I've got to beat you down to make me feel bigger" there'd be a lot more flourishing companies and happier staff. Nice story.
😄
I was a bookseller for over a decade and when I had a shitty customer, I would give them the most disgusting change in the drawer and put their books in bags that were too small.
So petty!! Love it! 😍
👍 perfect!
Omg I do that! Nasty customer gets the nastiest change! I thought it was an original & unique pettiness lol.
@@chaoticevil9800 14 nickels and 5 pennies. 😅 I've only had to do it ONCE. 🤣
Hahaha, I give the change in the smallest amounts as possible if a customer is being rude and nasty to me. Your change is £2.30? Let me give that to you in 20ps and 5ps :) Have a nice day now. Sorry, you want your change in fewer coins? Sorry my till is low on coins and I'm low on patience. :)
My company was shit, was threatening to take away holiday time. They kept denying holiday request but made it clear if we didn't take the holiday time we would lose it and not be reimbursed for unused days... So instead of going to the manager I went straight to the computer and inputted my holiday time.. Magically the holiday they said I couldn't take took when I went straight to the source. I got the entire month of April off (with pay) and fucked off to Portugal and Amsterdam for the whole month. They figured it out in march and posted a note saying "no holiday time available at all in april" and made sure everyone knew It was because I "stole" all the time off for the month.
I would've told everyone else how to go input the holiday time since the company keeps denying the requests.
all's fair, in love and war. if they're trying to cheat you, declare war!
Did your colleagues BELIEVE such a stupid lie, though?
I appreciate the clever way that the petty employee provided to "opportunity" that the security sticker "might" stick into that purse, but did not actually touch the purse. Very Clever ((*chef's kiss))
I like the alarm sticker on the purse idea!
The reason is due to how I would alert store security to actual shoplifters trying to leave the corporate grocery store where I was employed as a night cleaner.
I always had two large dry dust mops on the floors. One I would stash next to the alarm sensors with an alarm strip stuck on it, between the strands, while actively cleaning the floors with the other one. Once I spot someone doing the dirty deed? I would stay as close as I could to keep an eye out/follow waiting for the moment the shoplifter goes towards the doors to leave. I would walk faster than their pace to get to my second dry dust mop, grab it and walk past the alarm sensors towards the exit door setting off the alarm. Working as just a night cleaner, I had no legal right to stop anyone, or even question them! Caught a heck of a lot of shoplifters that way!
Respect!
So clever!
Appreciated, well paid and well fed staff make for better customer service. Hangriness is real and so is feeling undervalued.
1000 thumbs up! This is such a simple & logical concept, yet most managers & owners never grasp it.
hypothetically
when i was volunteering at my moms work they reused paper for scrap, the idiots used the payroll as scrap and my mom found out she was being paid significantly less although she won awards for the company. just looking for a job got her the raise lmao 🤣 dont mess with the people who make your business work. my mom still works there but got her deserved pay
I one time petty employee revenged and didn't even know it.
I was in construction at the time, my co-worker (Dan) and I were fairly efficient in the Plate and Detail part of the job and he kept asking the boss, whom I had never seen or met, for a raise for almost two years. One morning we get to work and he gets a call to go to a meeting. As I am getting ready to P&D the next units this guy comes up with this kid in tow saying that the kid is to help me today. I look at him and his tool bags, which are completely empty, and ask the guy what is the kid supposed to do to which he replied "Help you, dummy." I got a little offended at that and said...."How in the f... is this kid going to help me? He has no f..... tools." And began to tell him how f.... this entire situation was with many details. I finished with a very loud "Now get the f... out of here.".
They both left.
A few hours later Dan comes back from the meeting and says "Did you yell at Arnie?" . I ask who that is and he replies "The guy that brought that kid to work with you was our boss, and whatever you said to him worked. He gave is both a raise.".
Well damn. Good for you!
EPIC! YOU THE MAN!
Omg …. That was amazing
My sandwich in refrigerator was gone the next day (saved it for break the next). Week later the chocolate chip cookies I left on table were gone. Someone on second shift spent time in bathroom. Chocolate ex lax is a wonderful thing. 🤔🙀😈
A place my brother used to work at had an issue with food always disappearing, so someone there doctored up some food with laxatives to try to catch the thief. Turns out that one of the staff members had a habit of coming back into work after hours to catch up with paperwork - after he would pick up his kids from school, bringing them with him. He would send them unsupervised to hang out in the breakroom while finishing his work. A few days after the doctored food had also disappeared, he was complaining to co-workers about how odd it was that all his kids had come down with some sort of "flu bug" all at once. They were the ones helping themselves to the food.
Because of the amount of petty videos I've seen from Charlotte my pettiness will be prepared to any job I'll be in, thanks petty queen
Women often have a hard time separating business from relationships at work. When men jump from job to job they’re seen as “go getters” but if women take that approach their supervisor/boss debase them as “users”.
This was pointed out to me by a very successful male friend. Don’t buy into the guilt ladies.
YES. And women are almost always the ones that get the chop if there's any downsizing or reorganization.
I have had various jobs and been self employed, and now that I'm over 50 it has been a huge selling point for me. I see jobs as 'adventures', and people can see right away that I can be thrown into anything and do fine. We need to appreciate that aspect of our experience for the skill it is!
Yes! I have been very lucky in that most of my jobs, I have gotten along with people. But at the end of the day, the people around me are my coworkers, not besties lol.
@@pablodelsegundo9502 or grossly underpaid
At my old doctor's office (and he was OLD, 80 and sharp as a tack, lol) the doctor partnership catered lunch for the whole staff *every* day. Can't get much better than that! 😋
Since I managed to get here kinda early I want to thank you for helping me to not be a doormat when I encounter Karens at work 😂 keep up the good work charlotte and editors
Unrelated, but (if you are the young woman in your pfp) please know that you rock that hair and you're gorgeous!
@@golden_leader9227 it is, thank you so much! 🥰
I worked for a DIY company that adopted the Home Depot stylie of business. They were making us Americans. During a morning meeting on the shop floor, our area manager was asked about how little we were paid. he said, "When you get monkeys, you pay peanuts". Several employees stood up one by one and said things like, "I'm a vet, but I can't get a license to practice in Britain", "I'm a lawyer who can't get a job because I'm overqualified for most of the legal companies in Aberdeen" I stood up and reminded him of the time he tried to chew me out because the store manager and line manager never spoke up to say the line manager had fucked up the holiday rota because he thought I was away while he went on holiday - my holiday had been cleared eight months previously. I then told him I was gay after he had said during a meeting, "Oh god don't tell me we have any of those.!", my boss and line manager still never said they knew that there were four gay members of staff in including me, cnuts...he crumbled and walk away LOL
How amazing is this woman? I'm laughing more at her reactions then anything. Lol just 120% herself and I'm here for it!
It’s so dumb that businesses expect loyalty but refuse to give it or deserve it. “How dare you try to get another job when I refuse to give you a raise!” “I treat you like shit and this is how you repay me?”
I was working at a nursing home and I started out working graveyard. (8 years experience). That night I came in I asked the nurse for the end section cause the a lady who has been there for years was pissed off at me the few nights before cause i had "Her" section. When you're new there thats the section you get it happens to everyone. So I was restocking briefs and wipes in all the rooms. In the middle of me doing this I was making sure I got everything in the rooms on the clip board and she came up to me and said I need this and that and I ask her to hang on a sec so I could finish the paperwork. And she literally yelled and me and called me a B#%@! Screaming. I looked at her and said you're going to get fired. So I wrote it all down on printer paper and the nurse asked me what I was doing and she took her pen and signed the paper too along with all the other cnas there 🤣 even the residents that she woke up wanted to sign the paper too. And they said about time we get to get her A#@ in trouble. And the next day at work she wasn't there. We worked one cna short but it was totally worth it! I knew she was going to be pissed but I didn't know that she would freak out like that glad she did just made my plan even better! Guess they had been trying to fire her for a long time. It was a good night we even got pizza!
I've been working for the same small factory for a few years. Most of the plant workers are good people. Management, however, is inept at best and they regularly talk about the workers like they are sub-human. I recently started a new position there and moved from the floor to a desk job working beside the PM. I know how things work here, so when I asked about the position's pay, I wasn't surprised to hear some lame excuse followed by, "I'll see what I can do." Since I have a long work history in jobs requiring much higher level skillets, I don't believe they realize they need me much more than I need them. So, imagine the chop-licking opportunity that fell into my lap when a new HR assistant sent out a spreadsheet requesting missing employee information for payroll, but included ALL plant employees and their current pay rates. There are some top, reliable performers that are making the same or even less than new and/or unreliable ones. This place is in desperate need of new management. I'll see what I can do.
Sending out a document with personal details, like salaries, is super illegal.
That HR assistant should be held accountable for the mistake. It's also important to know what your skills are worth to the company and be prepared to walk if they don't pay you fairly for your expertise.
"Oops, accidentally left a copy of the pay roll info spreadsheet in the photocopier for Janice the Office Gossip to find, naughty me"....
Had a boss who was fired from a accounting firm for stealing food from the frig. They bosses kept getting complaints about this woman so they installed a camera above the frig. She denied and denied until they played the footage.
Why are people like that?
@@Carpathianpixie Good question. She thought the company needed her she could do anything. I heard she would also show up for work at 3pm then demand the office staff stay to help her because she was a lazy fuck that slept most of the day. Her bosses only kept her around because she was good at her job. Problem was she was a thief. When I quit she use my info to get a credit card that she maxed out. It was a big mess but I got my revenge by having her license to be a CPA revoked permanently.
@Ice Ghost I thought that too unless to was someone in upper management doing it.
At this one restaurant I worked in ( line cook ) the kitchen manager stole the kitchens tips every week & always said that they "went missing." The dirty thief! I didn't work there for long😒
I got fired for discrimination over a disability while actively on FMLA for said disability. I took legal action and won a settlement for 6 months salary. Once my attorney and the government got their cut, it wasn’t worth the trouble in the end, but they won’t do that to anyone else moving forward at least.
The taking one for the team can make it worth it, changing the world one little lawsuit at the time!
Did you have to use an attorney for it? I had an employer get rid of me for taking off too much time due to my disability (3 days in 6 months). I researched it all myself before the court date came around and won a good settlement from them (around a years salary). I would have been really annoyed if I had to give it to anyone else.
I was a barrista in a shady café like 10 years ago. I was also a student so I only took a couple of shifts. There were only 2 other employees. My dog had gotten old and I needed a day off to have him put to sleep. I asked for the day off a week in advance, and it was extremely hard waiting for it, trying to make our sick baby as confy as possible. I was miserable. Then on the day we brought him to the vet, I got a text saying : yeah sorry about your dog but we need you to come in today. The other employee's wife went into labor. I said no, I'm litterally going to the vet right now. I can't. They texted me back saying : don't be selfish, he needs to be with his wife, just leave your dog at the vet and come to work. I said : I'm not coming in today, and I'm not coming tomorrow either because I'm gonna be trying to get over being called selfish for being with my dog as he's being put down.
The owners never wanted to go and work, they'd rather ask me to leave my dog alone to be killed instead of either going, or closing up for an evening. The next day I made some calls. Day after I found another job. I went back to take my check and they tried apologizing, but I told them I couldn't stay some place that was so unreliable. I asked for my time off in advance. They had no reason not to take the shift. The place eventually shut down.
The food stealing from the work fridge story would have been better if they checked the video above the fridge for the Applesauce thief, and then made sure they were the only one NOT eating the pizza. Just saying 👼
Yes!
Had to have been the boss!
Great petty revenge!
I think, people who steals others people food should be fired on the spot, not denied of free pizza.
I was thinking the same thing. Why didn't they check the video for the applesauce thief.
I just wanna know if they used the camera to see her freak out why couldn’t they also use the camera to find out who ate the darn applesauce!
It was probably one of the bosses!
@@carolinegrova8707 probably lol
Non-compete can be a fear tactic a lot of the time. I spoke with a lawyer a while back about this and (at least in my province) if you’re a co-founder or something like that, yes non-compete will apply, but for employees they’re more difficult to enforce because you cannot legally prevent someone from making a living in their profession. So if you’re trained as an engineer and you’re employed at a firm, it’s difficult for that firm to prevent you from making a living as that. The same would apply for someone who may not have studied in a specific field, but has been working at doing a specific profession for a very long time. A three month period could be inforced, but for an employee it’s hard to legally do something more unless there is a very specific reason why this perticular person brings something special. At least that’s what he said when I brought him a contract from a friend that included a non-compete “forever” within something like 500 km. He laughed hard when he saw that. Employees are afraid of non-compete and don’t try to find out if they can be enforced or not.
The lunch thief story was hilarious and when Charlotte mentioned the idea of more companies providing lunch for their employees it made me think of my own company. Our office is undergoing some renovations that haven't been completed yet. The major problem is that the staff lounge isn't finished and we have no place to store much less eat or even make coffee. So every day we have food and coffee brought in and the firm has eaten the cost for every single meal. They are so awesome. I really love working for this firm. When I was hired for this position the CEO asked if I could promise to work for him for the next thirty years he would be happy. I laughed and told him I could promise the next few but I have no idea what the future would hold so no promises. If things in the firm stay the way they are now I could see myself staying there until retirement but who knows.
You are my light these days. I had some trauma last week and it is difficult for me to think positive. But watching you and you laughing makes me a little bit better, thanks.
Big (but gentle) Mama Bear hugs to you! Please know that you are strong and amazing!
@@colleencook382 Thank you so much 🥰
Take care! 💜

The last place I worked for was great to their employees. On weekends when we were completely full for Thursday,Friday,Saturday, they bought pizza for all employees on Sunday. That usually happened about every 6 weeks from opening in March until closing in November. On the last day of closing when everybody was through closing their section down they took us to a local sit down restaurant for a late lunch. On occasions when an employee needed a place to stay for some reason they gave them a room at no charge. They also would give rooms to churches free of charge when they called about someone in need.
My petty revenge story: I worked in a department store where we had 2 refrigerators to store lunches and drinks. Suddenly my sodas came up missing. I couldn’t really figure out who until I had a “brilliant” thought. I placed a white dot on the bottom of the can that said “ T’s stolen soda” Culprit revealed on the second day…
"What is the pettiest thing you ever done at work?.." - asked Charlotte. Ma'am, where do I even start :))))) I electrocuted my ex boss for sexual harassment. Since I was a labor law expert, another ex boss that was berating bleeding secretary who injured herself at work, was told that I will help the secretary file massive work-related injury and emotional distress lawsuit against the company. I brought a chamber pot and put it on the desk of yet another ex boss who said we will not be having bathroom breaks.
Thank you for your always excellent videos ♥
In bed already on this fine Saturday evening, drinking wine with my doggo, watching Charlotte, thinking of all the petty shit I do to customers on the daily. 😂😂 I’m very lucky I have a good team and managers above me, but customers if you’re petty towards my team, we will be professionally petty to you. 😂😂
You are so right! And the reasons you mentioned are reasons why teachers are leaving en masse in the USA. I love my job, and I want to continue because I love the kids. But teaching is a tough job.
They're doing the same here in Québec. The system is messed up.
I just read a quote from a Congresswoman in Utah saying "Placing your child in public school is child abuse". 🙄 THIS is what we're dealing with! 😡
@@alyzu4755 THAT makes me mad! I love my students. I literally care about their failures and successes. Many parents don't!
@@Carpathianpixie Sorry to hear it is a problem elsewhere. I thought it was just the US and politicians pushing their agenda.
@@gm-xc5hl It's infuriating! Teachers put so much time, care, and love into their jobs, and in return get very little compensation and a whole lot of blame.
I worked for several businesses that talked about "We're a family" and "You are important to the success of this company". But, after a while I realized that I was just a replaceable gear in the machine. When I gave my notice at one job, the owner actually said,, "No big deal. Accountants are a dime a dozen."
Didn't make me feel bad at all when it took him three months to replace me, paying a higher salary to the new guy. The new guy? Somebody I knew from school. I gave him info to help him negotiate the terms of his contract and he kept me up to date on the office gossip.
I once taught in a high school with awful students ( all male school) that also had an awful director, who treated me badly (to say the least). The guy was such a bully. And students could do whatever, they were always right. One day some students tried to set trash on fire but he defended them. Another time I told him about an incident and he replied “ boys will be boys, I was myself very agitated in school, I get them”. What? Anyway. Long story short, I almost burnt out and had to stay off work for about a month. When I came back, they had given my position to the substitute who had filled in for me. Technically not legal, but that director obviously knew people in high places. The awful/ makes no sense schedule I had and that couldn’t be changed had miraculously been modified for said sub as well. Things I had complained about but that were not considered important when I had spoken about them in the past had been solved. Etc. Every single person working there absolutely hated him but would just shut up. I was so mad about the whole situation that I kept the books, pens and any paper supplies I had been given on arrival and was supposed to use in school only. That high school also happened to have a weird key system - we had to go and pick our classroom keys every morning from a special cabinet and put it back when done in the afternoon. And since we’re in France, we don’t necessarily teach in the same room all day, so we often had to come and go and wait for other teachers a lot to get the key we needed. Which is annoying enough. But the day I was made redundant, one of the keys mysteriously disappeared... I laughed all the way back home, and was incredibly happy to put that key in a garbage can once home. Small thing, but made me incredibly happy to imagine the confusion and chaos that little key caused. 😉
Boys will be boys. You’re better off not working there. Testosterone- fuelled environments are best handled by men.
Are u female and the sub male?
I set off the alarm once leaving Hobby Lobby. It is incredibly embarrassing when that happens. I went in for specific items so I only had 3-4 things & I know I didnt steal anything. So I have to go back to the register, then walk through without my purchases & of course it went off again. I offered my purse for them to look & just then I thought to check my shoes. Sure enough, I stepped on a security thing, sticky side up, somewhere in the store & there it was on my shoe. I peeled it off & walked through with no issues & everyone laughed but I was mortified that those people who was around & left or came in during the event thought I was a shoplifter.
I bought a purse at a thrift store that set everything off. The stupid tag was so well hidden took weeks to figure it out!
@@Chahlie probably why someone donated it to a thrift store. 😂 Darn purse was triggering every theft alarm at the mall.
@@Chahlie I bought a nice designer purse at a swap meet, it had a tag hidden in one of the pockets that set off alarms until I found it. Now I know that swap meet seller likely stole the merchandise she was selling. Here in California there are criminal theft rings that go into stores and steal in an organized group, some are there to distract staff while others grab the merch. Often, they get children to do the stealing.
Had that exact thing happen to me several times at K-Mart years ago. Security sticker tabs are a joke. I once had about 5 on the bottom of my shoe and that just means that someone else stole the stuff they were on and just peeled the things off and threw them in the floor. They didn't quite think things through when they decided a peel off sticker was the right call to keep theft away.
I generally don't assume someone's stolen anything when that alarm goes off. It's happened to me a few times, and yes it's a bit embarrassing and frustrating, but usually it's because one of the security tags got missed by the cashier, so they just have to go through my stuff till they find it. Also where the heck are you guys that it's just stickers? Where I live it's usually those hard plastic things that I think squirt ink if you try to remove them improperly
Anybody else loves CHARLOTE?
I asked a girl who was in my rather large software development team of around 60 people what her work was (she was supposed to be a developer ) . I had assumed her to be a tester because I had never seen her interact much with the developers and she never seemed to be around whenever development work was in a critical phase . Now this girl complained to my boss (who was also my friend ) that I had insulted her by asking her job description. I was completely surprised because that was an innocuous question and I felt both the girl and boss were overreacting. Anyway I got a better opportunity a few months later and quit . My former boss (now only a friend ) called me up a year later and wanted to meet . When we were catching up i asked him about the girl . he told me the girl had complained to the HR that my friend was harassing her and in the mess that followed , the girl quit her job and my friend's reputation was shot . I didn't say anything but thought to myself "you don't have to do anything for revenge the universe does it for you" .
But what was her job?????
@@andreastroud5561 do you actually think that kind of person works? :-P
she was a developer though I never saw any code written by her .
@@ramachandra776 Sounds like she got the job as a developer but may have not been putting in any work. The fact that she complained when asked about her job was a way to avoid the question. The fact that she destroyed the rep of another person before leaving sounds like she was working harder to covet her tracks.
Either that or she did do work and was just too oversensitive but I'm sticking with option one. Some people can get jobs they aren't qualified for snd stick with it, avoiding red flags, until one person notices
She’s was overreacting because she’s covering up for her inept skills.
Here's a petty revenge story for you! I used to get my hair done by a girl who I ended up befriending and we were super close friends. After some time and life changes I couldn't get my hair done the same way anymore but we were still really close friends. One day she told me she had been sacked from that salon for unfair reasons. One day when I knew the owner would be in to hear about it I called and booked in for full extensions, foils, cut etc... a full day job pretty much, and then said I only wanted to have it done by my friend. When they told me she no longer worked there I raved about how good she was and said I wouldn't be having the very expensive job done afterall. I don't know how much the boss cared but it felt good to stand up for my friend!
I work in IT, and my wife works at one of the companies we serve. She always calls me on my private cell and get's direct support before anyone else. That's how much I love her ❤️
I have two days left of my toxic job. It was really hard to leave because I loved the work but our management was the worst and left the floor staff in dangerous situations with no backup or debriefing. When I told her, you would have thought I was divorcing her and taking the kids and dog. Maybe listen when your employees tell you for months what is wrong and you wouldn't have a fourth of the staff leaving within a month.
I think I have watch too many petty videos from charlotte. My urge to be petty to rude people has increased. 😂😂
Our ex assistant manager, who quit one day on the spot after staff wouldn't cover the shift he wanted to leave early during, left bad reviews of our workplace. It was signed as a former assistant manger. HR found out and the company created a legal battle with him as he had been changing records and all kinda dodgy stuff which came out the woodwork after he left.
Everything has snowballed since then and the store has been hanging by threads but is looking up now. It's been difficult to get through but we're all trying our best to keep things going. Throwing staff under a bus that they're driving ain't the way to go.
Just got into Charlotte pretty recently these last few weeks and it warms my heart hearing her talk about meeting her petty soulmate and knowing she has Mike now 😭😭😭
Pettiest thing i have done is walk out on a job whilst the boss was on holiday and shop was going through the change from Christmas to normal stuff so left them short staffed and with loads of work to do. Totally loved this video and good on the people for sticking up for themselves.
Were you were trying to get revenge on your coworkers?
@@TurdFurgeson571 not really. The way people were treated in the company was rubbish. I had enough and I left in my probation period so no notice was needed
When I was a GM at a book store (rhymes with cooks some bouillon,) we had a fire. I got everyone out ok but I got smoke inhalation and was in hospital for 4 days. They sent the most vile human being to take my place and my entire staff quit. When I came back I was told I had to work all the hours the store was open til they hired a staff without my input! I said “nope, pick up the keys at the mall security office,” locked up and quit. They offered me a raise to come back but I wouldn’t take it. I loved working there til they changed the DM. Why anyone would replace our fantastic and inspiring DM with that bitch was beyond me. Our sister store in the area lost a lot of long time staff when she took over as well.
@@debshaw680 I had a job like that too. Had a lovely manager but some other members of staff dropped her in the s**t and she got fired on the spot. What happened next was a royal f up of the highest order and got to the stage were no one was knowing what to do. So glad I got out of there when I did. Hopefully you are all good now found yourself a even better place to be and enjoying it just as much.
@@stephenreed8416 When you walk off the job you only hurt the staff. It has little impact on the owner or the business prospects. Just an FYI for the future. You really eff'd over your coworkers that day.
I always told my employees I would support them a hundred percent as long as they were improving their lives with their change. A couple times the "greener grasses" were not really greener. But, everyone was happy in the end.
My company feeds us, and very well also.. i love em for it
5:30 The start up I work for always has coffee, milk and oat milk, beer (for after work obviously) and club-mate. After being in home office for a few month our CPO payed our lunch first day back in office. I love the company for that! The store I worked at before (around 30 employees) barely could bring themselves to buy water for us during summer and the water from the faucet was nasty, because old pipes...
I've been taught to never feel sorry for walking out of a toxic job environment. Whether you need a well deserved vacation or sick day, a pay raise or straight up wanting to quit. Your mental/physical health is more important than anything else.
I worked for a very angry man once. One day he told me "his dog could do my job!" Enough. I spent a week typing up exactly how to do my job. On Friday, I put a sticky note on top of the 4" tall pile of paper, wishing his dog good luck in her new position, and never went back. I had a new job 2 days later.
Priceless 🐶
Anybody else loves char's petiness!!
Taking notes! 😆
This made me a little sad, I’m retiring from a job I absolutely love due to health reasons. It’s a lot easier leaving a job you hate.
When I was a chef many years ago, staff meals seemed ok for some reason…
I am currently working part time for a catering company (server). They encourage us to bring containers to take home leftover food rather than to throw it out :)
Same here. I loved what I did and was really good at it, unfortunately I developed a severe heart condition and can't do it anymore. What's worse is I still get calls from other companies asking if I am looking to get back into it. 😭 I cry for an hour after I have to say that I can't.
At my restaurant we’ve had multiple meetings at this point enforcing all staff (except the 3 main chefs) have to pay for their food… wonder how we are supposed to afford the $30-90 dishes when servers are paid $3.80 an hour 🙄
@@SinNeighbor How are you supposed to describe a meal if you don’t know what it tastes like? My last job working for someone else before setting up my own business was with the guy who managed the first restaurant I worked at. He had been my mentor throughout my career and had bought his own restaurant. Hie whole family lived upstairs and would come down and eat with the staff of which there were about ten in total. It was the best team building exercise I've known (also learnt a bit of Italian).
I do high-end custom picture framing. When a client is rude, I add a five dollar asshole tax for every time they are awful. It’s my shop, so I can do what I want. 😈👿
You found your petty soulmate 🥹
There are managers at my place of employment who have been promoted beyond their ability and are now in way over their heads. Some of us routinely engage in covert psychological operations to mess with them and make their lives miserable. I'd love to say more, but that would ruin the "covert" part.
Peter's Principle
But… I need to know more 👀
Back in the day I used to work as the fitting room attendant/switchboard operator at Caldor. I was so fed up with how disrespectful they were towards me that on Wednesday of that week I told them I quit and Friday was my last working day. Forget 2 weeks notice- I gave them 2 days.
I'm not sure why giving two weeks' notice is still expected when employers routinely fire employees without cause and without notice AND without severance pay. It's a two way street, we don't owe anyone two weeks' notice anymore, IMO. My state (Virginia) is considered a "right to work" state, which sounds great but is really only beneficial for employers, because it means they can fire you for any reason (or no reason) without warning, so long as it's not for discriminatory reasons, but that's hard to prove. I'd only give two weeks' notice now if I really liked the person I was working under AND thought I could trust them to not accept my resignation early and screw me out of two weeks' pay.
@@carolinegrova8707 This is an incredibly insightful point! I have never thought of it like that. Thanks for that enlightening opinion!!!
Oregon - Right to Work state. A better description would be a "Right to FIRE" state......exactly what it is
DM kept reporting her failings as my fault to the AM. Finally she came with the AM to our store and she started dressing me down. My GM tried to throw me under the bus but Mama ain’t a dummy. I printed out every email the DM had sent us showing she never sent us the info to do whatever the fuck we weren’t doing correctly and my emails asking her what we needed to know from the DM meetings or group meetings they didn’t bring us to because we’d have had to have a hotel room.
Handed those printouts to the AM and turned the screen to her so she could see I hadn’t changed anything. Not only did I not get fired, I didn’t even get a reprimand and the AM sent me all the info that was missing and kept in touch with me because the GM never checked email, which you could clearly see was all unopened in her account.
From there, my GM got disciplined and the DM got switched from DM to a single store GM.
Best part was both getting a dressing down in front of me for trying to throw me under the bus when I had great reviews from the customers at all 3 stores I managed.
Sounds like Dollar General
You said it perfectly! Treat and pay employees what they are worth and crap like this wouldn’t happen, also I love how bosses always say you’re a dime a dozen you don’t want the job I got list of 100 who do . So I said to a Boss okay and handed over my keys started walking out he was all flustered coming after me I just stood there till he finally had to say “ please don’t leave” serve red him right .
Love this! The whole don’t take business personally thing is such a helpful reminder, especially when you’re a self employed people pleaser 😂❤️
I once worked at a halfway house for women and children. Most of the staff from the director down to the aides were the lowest forms of life imaginable. When businesses in the community donated goods like clothes, cosmetics, or toys, the director would take staff to the donation room and tell them to take whatever they wanted before giving it to the intended recipients.
Staff also regularly stole each other's lunches from the fridge. I resigned from that toxic environment ASAP. After I left, they told me to come in for free to complete work that wasn't even mine.
I went in a couple times until I received my final paycheck. The director kept calling me to return to do free work, but had nothing left to threaten me with.
I like the way you think Charlotte!
You've clearly pondered many of these things previously and your emotional intelligence is apparent. 💞
Yes!!! “Petty soulmate”s FTW!!!!
Another option to the community fridge would be chilled lockers. They’re pretty common in Japan and other commuter societies. They’re big enough for a bag of groceries or a lunch box. Each is separately keyed, so no theft.
Never make friends with co workers and especially your boss. There are some instances where it can be helpful and beneficial to be friendly with them (always be friendly and kind but remember they aren’t your friends. Your well-being is not their concern.)
My dad told me this when I first started working as a teen. I didn’t listen cuz I’m a people pleaser, hate conflicts, non confrontational, never wanted to seem rude, didn’t want anyone to hate me, thought my bosses or co workers were different and really wanted to be friends (hit to your mental health when you realize they don’t care about you), etc…
I finally learned this lesson…I hope. I still have a little hope that I’m gonna get a boss that actually does care and a fear that when I do, it’ll be when I stop trying and miss a great opportunity for a friend or career advancement.
By now watching this Channel is just a way of Life. A very petty and funny way 😂
11:24, I feel this! At my last desk job, I negotiated my pay rate up from minimum wage
, and I was very proud of myself for this. Later found out they were offering all the new hires my negotiated pay rate. So, every new desk agent, regardless of experience, was just handed the same pay I had to fight for. On the one hand, cool, everyone ended up getting paid better! But at the same time, where was that money hiding when they were trying to hire me at minimum wage???
When Charlotte mentioned the scene from MEAN GIRLS, I instantly thought of the scene from GROWN UPS 2, where the frat guy (aka Talor Lungther) said, "WE ARE NOT KILLING EACH! That was a hilarious moment.
I was written up by my supervisor for not knowing to place an order that my supervisor was supposed to show me how! I used to stop by the store on my way home, get the parts at a discount so they workers would have it the next day. New boss was a total A-hole and would not let me do this and threatened that if I did, he would make me take vacation time to do it. This store had a set price for shipping and I had 2 orders to place with them and instead of combining the orders, I placed them separately with 2 different shipping prices. What would have cost less than $4 cost them over $15! and they had to wait for the parts to come in.
i want to share the story of that time i was petty towards my ex boss. my story would be really long, so i better make it short and sweet. i worked as a gardener at a cemetery and after i got out of my employment (it was taken to court, since he was constantly harassing my while i was recovering from a mental breakdown), my ex boss demanded that i give him my workwear back (he paid for it, so it's fair and it was the cheapest trash he could get anyway). so i send him a package with the dirty, uncleaned pants and shoes. i also removed the laces from the shoes, since they ripped and i replaced them, so they were mine. that was my final middle finger to him. (if i butchered the english language, i'm sorry, it's not my native one)
Your English is so good I couldn't tell that it's not your first language. You have nothing to worry about 👍🙂
@@rebeccarankin9455 thank you. i'm always worried, that i make so many mistakes that nobody can understand me xD
Oh yay! Charlotte gets to keep my company while i fold laundry.
I'm a retired carpenter, I shut the power off on the entire building once because the iron workers kept disconnecting the cords the drywallers were using and they kept getting stuck with a full sheet over their heads and no power in their screw guns so after telling them to stop 4 times already I went straight to the basement and shut down the entire jobsite!
I was a new hire at a bank that had just bought out another. Well my starting salary was more than what people had been there for several years were making. One of the previous bank hires asked me what I was making. So I told. That’s when I found out all new hires were making the same as each other but more than those who had been with the swallowed up bank! Then word started spreading through all the old hires and it became toxic for a while. There was so much petty and passive aggressive behavior and outright rudeness towards us new hires by the old hires that a few of them got fired. I felt bad about that. One girl even quit and reinterviewed for the same job. She didn’t get it for how she behaved before she quit.
i worked for our local garbage company. upon hiring, we were told it was under new management. ok, cool. all was well, until one new hire let it slip to his best friend, who was an older employee (had been there long before new management) that is was a great job for x amount of dollars. she stopped and asked what? the old employees were making less than new hires, and same thing happened. the old pay employees began abusing the new hires. i stood up in a meeting and pointed out who was doing it and said in front of management, that it is NOT our fault or decision regarding pay and if the harrassment coniues from said employees the company was going to have alot of lawsuits headed their way. either raise the pay of older hires to the rate new hires got, or do something about the harrassment being delivered unto us from the old hires because the entire situation was unacceptable and no amount of pay was worth being mean girled by an entire staff floor simply because you choose to get a job. the people who were leading the mean girl bullshit were fired or quit shortly after and the ones who stayed, got a raise within a couple months and all shut up.
I love your reactions. I laugh with you every time. 🤣
My kids kept setting off store alarms. One store staff figured out it was those anti theft things put into new shoes, and had not been removed or deactivated. Problem removed
I was the graveyard medication technician and caregiver. We still had to attend mandatory meetings during the day. It felt like coming in to work at 1 am only to have to come back at 6 am. We were already sleep deprived, and I had to manage medication for elderly with dementia, and not making exceptions for us really did us in.
Charlotte you never disappoint. We adore you & thank you so much for keeping us laughing (and thinking) You’re a truly good soul & I for one, am happy you chose this path-you’re doing more good for the world than you know 🙏🏼😁💜
The AITA story about suing the _former_ boss: Yes. You are an AH. A gloriously petty AH. I salute you.
Petty soulmate in existence

Nr. 1., Was perfect.... nobody notice at first...and you get to run away before they do....and everybody knew who the "message " was from....
Perrrrfect 🥳!
I always learn something when I watch these petty Miss Charlotte videos!
Now; is it for good 😇 or evil 😈?
I suppose it’s all in the application. 😉
You are by far the funniest RUclipsr out there! I love that you don't actually try to be funny, you just are. I love the petty. Sometimes just your comments are worth watching the whole video❤
These people, are actual heros.
"Don't threaten, just do" - very true.
Hi Charlotte please take this the way it's intended.... you are an introvert... I am too . Much of your content doesn't apply to me yet.... I enjoy your presentation please don't change it. We introverts need at least one we can relate to. I bet many of your audience are introverts. Love you for who you are !!!!! No not creepy I bet your parents are so proud of you!!!
As for the penis wedding cake - I believe it was created as a “drawing” in icing as you described. Otherwise it would have been much too obvious.
Came for the petty, stayed for Charlotte. ❤️
If they could see OP throwing the food out from the refrigerator why couldn’t they tell OP who ate the applesauce?
Love you! Your videos are the best part of my day 🧡 especially when I'm going through a hard time
These stories make me want to tell my story as well. Its very long but it caused me the worst stress which affects me today.. I worked there 2 years ago.
We're all ears! Do tell.

YES CHARLOTTE PREEEAAACH
Couldn’t have said it better👍
My punk friend work for our local council. They knew she was an artist so the commissioned her to do some Christmas cards representing our town. She manged to get a dinky hidden in every one of them.
Excellent video. There are also great stories from the other side: good bosses who dealt with bad employees. A thought for the next time, perhaps?
Heyyyyy everybody 👋🏿👋🏼👋🏾👋🏻
