@Lazurkri Same, but blessed are the families who have many children. My grandpa came from a family of 10 (6 boys, 2 girls) and now there's endless cousins and aunts and uncles. Greats house was always full, there was always food, always someone to play with or Crack a cold one and talk. I miss these days
@Soul Trex That might have worked anytime up to the 50s. Now we're dealing with overpopulation and climate changes best dealt with by stabilizing the population were it is now,ideally losing a billion or so but thats unlikely to happen anymore. Also that commandment is from a time in which you could have 10 kids and due to various entirely preventable reasons (religious war, disease mitigation, clean water, etc, is something you can work towards/mitigate) you'd be lucky to have 3 survive to adulthood, which isn't really a thing that happens any more in the West for a century, if not more.
I love how OP refused to help his cousin pass school and then the aunt decided to pull the "but we're family" card. And then OP countered with his trap card: "if we're family, you wouldn't treat me like sh*t and then just expect me to help you! Treat me better and maybe I'll be inclined to help you, if you can't do that, then you can kindly f*ck off!" I know he didn't say that but he basically did, Hell, I would've said that because it's true. You don't get to treat someone like they're subhuman filth and then just expect them to help you because you're family. By that logic, he should've just let his cousin fail and then later ask her to buy him a car because "they're family"!
How strange that people, who like to use "but we're family!" as reason to get help, tend not treat others like family, like severely narcissistic abusers 🤔
Story 5: it's hilarious that the ex didn't realize the relationship was dead the moment she stole from OP. OP should be thankful for those Airpods. Thanks to them, he could hear the sounds of those red flags swaying in the wind before it was too late.
Hell, even if OP didn't get the charging box, this whole airpod thing would be worth the cost. Better to know the kind of person you're dealing with before you get in deeper.
@@gfg758 Very, VERY unlikely they would cost more than airpods. And it seemed like the guy bought BOTH of them, the ones for himself and for her. She certainly had done something wrong and was shameless about it, but seriously people...It's not like she took them on top of the airpods. It was just an inconvenience for the guy since he needed them the next morning (and didn't know he could use airpods), not a loss, since he could trade the airpods back in and buy the same headphones he wanted while getting some money back.
@@kikixchannel so? She stole from person who should be able to trust her and acted like she did nothing wrong - how that isn’t red flag to cut relationship and go no contact?
The fence story: With how pushy they got when O.P wouldn't sign right away it's possible they had in the paperwork that O.P had to build the fence or even handing over part of their property. I never trust anyone when they try to rush me to agree to anything.
@@GhostRider-sc9vu Totally. This sounds like it could be one of those you hear about on the news every so often because they got caught cremating in a trash can or throwing the bodies out in their back yard.
I do online retail customer service. Story 1 reminds me of when a cst cursed me out because no one was able to take her call for 2 days. I apologized and explained that we were under a mandatory hurricane evacuation. She told me that is no excuse and our company needs to relocate to an area that is not affected by natural disasters. I asked her to PLEASE tell me where that is, so I can move there. 😂 she hung up on me.
This made me remember something I had seen a while back, where someone decided to see where arable land intersects with low occurrence/severity of natural disasters. As it turns out, the Midwest avoids most natural disasters. Or at least doesn't get hit hard enough to grind things to a halt. As long as you're not near the lake shores, and not in a flood plain, you avoid the worst of what the area can throw at you. The Pacific-Northwest was also mentioned, because the disaster risk is quite low, and the climate is still acceptable.
I live in an area that is hardly ever hit with natural disasters, but we do still (occasionally) get one (although the ones we do get are often tame in comparison to most other parts of the world) I think the last one we had was over a year ago at this point (and i am not aware of any before that one) Unless you count thunderstorms, which we have had a few, but most pass uneventfully (there was one thunderstorm which somehow blew up our combined modem/router thingy (the one that the ISP automatically sent us, ISPs here don’t give you the option of using your own equipment (well, technically you can but the level of support you get will often vary between no support whatsoever and a confused support person (in the case of the issue we had last night, they would ask if the light on the box is red, orange, flashing orange, flashing purple, blue, green, etc…))))
Story 3: Nah OP, you were just defending your employee, who was off the clock, being harassed by a Karen. Karen was lying about someone, so you explained the truth.
Karens don't realize that by lying and making a big deal about it someone is going set the story straight, tell the truth and get the Karen in trouble for lying to everyone.
And here I'm wondering how a girl who constantly harasses her cousin and yet expects him to help her pass school was able to even date anyone, let alone get married and have three kids
Look...... sometimes ya gotta go full Karen to take down a Karen. Good on OP for standing behind their employees and going onto Facebook and doing that.
How was that being karen? Op defended their job and co-workers by telling truth; karens are arrogant, selfish and more or less narcissistic jerks who hurt others, lie and use every possible dirty trick to gain what they want.
in regards to story 2, how much do you want to bet that they hid a special little clause or two in that contract? they were far too insistent in getting them to sign right then and there without reading it.
Exactly what I was thinking the moment they said they couldn't leave it with OP. Threw up a huge red flag that would have put me on my guard immediately. As im sure it did OP
@@jacthing1 Having someone that insistent on you signing something without reading it isn't a huge red flag, that's a huge crimson warning sign with flashing lights and a loud alarm sound.
Some lady posted a rant on our neighborhood group complaining about the trash pick up company and she called company to complain too. She shows a video of her parking where she wasn’t supposed to in an apt complex narrow parking lot Truck was trying to come in to replace a bin but couldn’t since her car was blocking it. She is trying to leave forcing truck to let her out while another apt resident was also trying to get in but couldn’t because of truck. Truck gets in does job and she was nearby and her and driver got into it. She thought everyone would be on her side but nope. I saw a couple people calling her out nicely and the post was taken down if she just parked real quick there were available spaces both her and driver would have been able to do what they had to. Some people 🤦🏽♀️
That first story was geting me hard - "I don't care if you're hardly understaffed by a pandemic, I want my stuff NOW!" - well, get it somewhere else, when you need it so bad!
CeCe is a nightmare. My God. Reminds me of a former friend of mine who used to piss off everyone she knew and discard them once she got what she wanted. Everything about her was based on reciprocity. For context, imagine a middle-aged woman with the emotional maturity of a 5-year-old. She had no respect for boundaries, zero comprehension of the meaning of the word no or that it's often a complete sentence and nothing resembling accountability. Therefore, she had no expectation of their being consequences as well as reprisals for her atrocious, unprincipled, immoral, unethical and downright illegal behavior. She had the absolute nerve to spread an entirely untrue rumor that I caught an STI from a one-night stand, outed me to my estranged extremely homophobic conservative Italian Roman Catholic father, then begged me to share my inheritance with her when my father passed away from stage 4 lung (no such inheritance existed) cancer, completely glossing over the fact that she said the two of us never got along anyway and couldn't understand why I wouldn't bail her out from becoming homeless when her home went into foreclosure. Naturally, she tried to guilt trip me and tugged at my heart-strings stating her children would end up living on the streets and it would be “my fault.” I point blank told her that she did that to herself and got herself in the situation by living outside of her financial means by never keeping a job, buying a car she couldn't afford to keep up with the payments on and being more concerned with her hair having fresh highlights, getting her nails done, having a full pack of cigarettes and booze in the fridge. I also pointed out that her kids often wore ill-fitting clothes, shoes that didn't fit, often didn't have supplies for school or nutritious food to eat but she always looked great and had a pound of makeup caked on. Of course she couldn't handle the truth and facts were just pesky little irrelevances that got in the way of her ever-changing victim narrative, she took to social media talking about how no one really understands how hard it is to be a mother and raise children, blah, blah, blah. Everyone knew what a deadbeat she was and these attention-seeking posts were nothing new with her. She didn't get near the sympathetic reaction she was looking for, deleted the post by the end of the day and then made another one about how she was going to deactivate for a while because "social media is just too toxic.” She got a few laugh reactions but did not get the outpour of support of people begging her to stay that she was hoping for. We're not friends anymore. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
From the sound of it, the woman you're talking about has textbook antisocial personality disorder (or borderline personality disorder but antisocial seems more likely). (edit: clarification)
@@iononcantomascrivo I wouldn't say narcisist for 2 reasons: -the term lost all its meaning from people throwing it around for anything and everything -she litterally checks all the symptoms of ASPD As for sociopathic tendancies, that's litterally what antisocial personality disorder is. Symptoms of ASPD are: -incapacity or lack of willingness to show empathy -incapacity to take accountability, clear rejection of one's obligations, rules, and norms -difficulty to maintain long term relationships but no difficulty to start new ones -low tolerance to frustation, inclined to agressive and violent behavior -incapacity to feel guilt -incapacity to learn for social interactions -tendancy to lie, for profit or just for pleasure -tendancy to blame others or rationalize plausible excuses Pretty sure from what you said she checks all the boxes and we don't need to add narcisim on top of that to explain her beharvior
@@xegin1572 Those are all valid points. However, please keep in mind that what I shared was a very abridged take on the nearly decade she was a part of my life. Put it this way: I'm a published writer and if I ever need inspiration for writing a villain, I can just think of her.
Story 1: My ultra-petty ass would have responded "Agreed. Your terms are acceptable. I am cancelling your order now and refunding the charge. Have a nice day!" Story 2: Do not ever fuck with people that have something that you need. Mr. & Mrs. Funeral Home discovered the term "Fuck Around & Found Out" has real-life meaning.
Last story: CeCe failed because of CeCe, not OP. It is her responsibility as a student to learn. A tutor can't magically make her learn it. OP also isn't the only tutor on the planet. OP's aunt should have done something long before the last test to pass or fail. She should have been getting CeCe help long before then or cracking down on her to study. She was wrong to lay any of this at OP's doorstep.
Story 2: Man, as someone going into the funeral industry, the second hand embarrassment I get from those funeral home owners is huge, they're literally doing the opposite of what any funeral home should be doing which is being a welcome and friendly addition to their community, as we are meant to serve the community that we are located in. I bet money that the owners were between late 40s - early 70s, as in my experience, those are the owners that tend to be the biggest dickheads about things.
Funeral home fence story: Idiots! All of this must have cost them three or more times what it would have if they had just gone about doing it right the first time. And I'll bet that "agreement" would have assigned most, if not all, of the costs of the fence to OP, which is why they tried the 9pm tactic. After I told them "NO" the second time, I would have been calling the police to remove "violent" trespassers. Applicance Karen story: In this day and age of online presence, this is how Karens need to be handled. Embarras them with the truth and let others turn on THEM, which is a Karen's worst nightmare. YAY Grandma!!!
👏👏❣️👏👏 AMEN! I have worked retail for the majority of my working life.. And NO truer statement has ever been made! Whomever decided to say this.. The customer is always right.. REALLY needs to have their damn head examined!! Because in my experience with the public... 99% of the time.. Customer is WRONG! Why, you may ask? Well... Majority of the time they either: A. Read the signage WRONG OR B. TRIED to change the price tag on the item or MOVE the item to a different shelf!
Definitely felt the last one. In elementary/ early middle school I was definitely the stereotypical quiet nerd and therefore an easy target for bullies. Funny how quick they'd slither their way over and beg for help when they needed assistance in something not within their skill set. I'd usually agree (unless it was someone I really despised) but always made sure I got more out of the deal than they did
Why on earth would you want the cousin you've tormented for years to tutor you? Like, that would be the perfect opportunity for them to ingrain in you an incorrect method of solving the problems, and then you go take your exams and get a big fat F! And even worse, unlearning something is much harder than learning something new. Frankly, Cece was lucky OP didn't agree to teach her.
Story 2: if anybody comes up to you and tries to tell you that you "HAVE TO" sign something, they know they're trying to do something illegal. The only people that can force you to sign something is a court judge, and even then that's very situational.
Judges usually require your lawyer to read it and explain it to you first. Yeah, the judge may require you to sign it that day, but they explain it, their clerk explains it or your lawyer explains it to you first. Most judges started their judicial careers as lawyers.
I saw someone who went by a nickname sign one of those pushy contracts with it then argue it was not his legal name so it was not valid when they tried to enforce the nasty stuff hidden in the contract. It worked.
They can't force you to sign something, a contract is invalid if it's signed under duress. The court can give you an option, sign this or this other thing is going to happen. If the court wants to "make you agree" to something, they'll just rule that way and you don't have a choice and you're agreement isn't required.
I looooove S5. She was so smug thinking she got away with free expensive earbuds and happily flaunted them to rub salt on the wound. Oooo her happy time had a satisfying end when karma struck~
In the last story he should have helped CeCe the way Bud helped Kelly with her book report on Robinson Crusoe, but instead he told her the story of Gilligan's Island. The teachers response:"Miss Bundy, even you aren't that stupid."
My ex-boyfriend (we are still good friends) bought me headphones this past Christmas. They have a mic, cover my ears so don't irritate like earbuds do, and are really better than any I would willingly pay for. He made a comment about them not being wireless, which I basically said that it was fine; I was thrilled! I later found out he had bought his 2 son's wireless headphones. That's fine, they are his son's! Maybe he thought I would be jealous? I love the ones he gave me: they are comfortable, they sound better than my computer speakers, and I don't mind the cord at all, though I did put a twist tie around part of it to keep it from being much too long. I mean, I could probably go get a glass of water from my kitchen without disconnecting the headphones, that kind of long. Still, I don't have to worry about batteries, recharging... I mean, if the power goes out, both would only last as long as our phones lasted. Maybe theirs would last a little longer if all phones were fully charged, but I wouldn't want to place a bet. My phone holds a good charge a really long time, days if I skip phone games...
@@gorilladisco9108 I have a tiny apartment. That being said, the cord is still crazy long! Even with most of looped up, I still have 3ft of cord. I am guessing (I lost my measuring tape) that it is about 10ft long.
Story 2... I would say the demanding they sign the agreement at 9pm and to sign it immediately would be considered duress. I would have done the same. They did well to deal with each and every issue they did to resolve the issue... I am thinking the agreement was one which was extremely one-sided and wasn't one they wanted to deal with...
I would have told the cousin and the aunt that she is failing herself because she isn’t pulling her finger out and putting in the effort to earn the grade, and that is not my responsibility. If aunt had raised her daughter to respect others rather than bully, she’d get the tutoring lickety-split.
Last story, OP should have taken the Aunt's money, as much as she could get, and intentionally screw up the tutoring so that asshole cousin failed HARD. "I tried my best, but I guess she's just fucking stupid."
Final story: the purpose of siblings (older or younger), especially when they're over age 13: they will piss you off but they are always there to help or able to advise when someone else is being an asshole to you.
Story 1: OP is the bigger a-hole of 2 a-holes Story 2: 2 a-holes but again, OP is the bigger one Story 3: Customer was the a-hole Story 4: Ex dodged a bullet breaking up with OP Story 5: OP was totally right Story 6: Shmeh. I’m glad I don’t know any of these people.
Airpods story: girl! You really think you can steal and blatantly cross boundaries and expect them to come grovelling when you threaten to break up? It was already over!
The Last Story, the epilogue what they left out was CiCi's married with three kids and she's a widower because her husband blew his effing brains out after kid number three came and he was constantly being told that his devil spawn were perfectly innocent and could do no wrong after they crashed his car and did a whole bunch other fun stuff they had the police coming to the house in the neighborhood hating them and every single teacher at the school wanting to literally sacrifice them in the streets! LOL so unfortunately he had a choice, stay with that or blow is effing brains out, he made the right choice in my opinion!
I have a cousin like Cece once... Her mom is a goodness but she's a little bit "chaotic" Her mom give us the permission to do anything to fix her behavior and I.... Slap her so hard that she didn't know what's going on anymore... And after that she became more like a human then animal
My dad had a ten-year dispute over a fence line. The "neighbor" wasn't clear to his contractors and they bulldozed the fence, opening one of our pastures and making it useless for livestock. The guy even refused to replace the fence. My dad was a truck driver, and delivered to lots of businesses around Detroit with very Italian owners, some with connections. One of them asked what was bothering Dad, and offered to take care of whatever it was... Thankfully, Dad declined the offer, instead planning to put in a hog pen next to the neighbor.
Story 5: A relationship dies as soon as an ultimatum is made. "Do this, or we're done!" "Sacrifice this, or we're done!" "Buy me this, or we're done!" All ultimatums do is tell your that their love is conditional, and that if you don't meet up with their standards anymore or that you can't provide them with what they wanted anymore, they won't love you anymore.
Yup indeed just like with the massage one. Welcome to entitled women that assume the world revolves around them and that they could be as rotten as they want Because you're not supposed to get mad. It's almost sad in a specific way when reality shows them that no that's not how the world works. As she specifically learned so I really really hope that losing him for a bunch of earpods was worth it. I'm sure she assumed he would forgive her eventually in it her behavior pretty much just threw up a huge a** red flag. Especially after He unblock her. They say if they see bad behavior like this as harmless And all in good fun when the only one laughing is them then yeah Time to move on
Story 2 - Where I live, putting pressure to sign a contract is illegal. Putting pressure to sign a contract without reading is very very illegal. Why : because the contract can bind you to almost anything. Even if these thing are legal (anyway, they need to), they still can bind you to gave them your house, your car and your dog! And, more than often, pressured contract signed go hand to hand with "not what has been spoke" and "you should have read the small characters" and "your in deep s**t now!".
About pushing people… yup. That’s me. I’m normally chill. My ex psycho got me to that point. I tossed everything I could, food included, down the trash chute. Gave away, for free, everything else that didn’t fit down the chute. Hopped on the next flight almost 4,000 miles away. I wish I left a cam to see his reaction when he got home from work that day.
first story: okay but guy kinda had the right to be mad, he paid for express and he is wasting money because of reasons out of his control. but ofc op is not at all at fault so the guy shot himself in the foot by being a jerk. what he should’ve done is to ask for the express money back.
Sorry, but that first one had the right to complain. Yes, when you pay for expedited services you DO expect it to be expedited. It doesn't matter what item it was. Arrows or oxygen masks. It isn't up to YOU to decide whether or not you pack it last because you're having a bad day. Simple rule of thumb: if you can't guarantee the expedited services that customers are PAYING FOR, don't offer them. Certainly don't get an attitude and deliberately delay it. That wasn't "revenge", that was really really bad customer service
+byronmccall1554, writes _"Yes, when you pay for expedited services you DO expect it to be expedited."_ But he didn't pay for _expedited service,_ he paid for Express Post which is a shipping method, and which he would have received.
@@fred_derf Express post is just that. It's 2 to 3 days service instead of 5 to 7 Day service. "Expedited" in case you didn't know means increased speed. It means you get it faster. That's what Express post is. It's an expedited service. It's not one day or overnight but it is still supposed to be faster than just putting it in the regular delivery queue.
@@byronmccall1554 An order being shipped "Express Post" doesn't mean the order jumps to the front of the line in the shipping department. It means it gets shipped "Express Post", which is how the order in this case would be shipped. Being shipped "Express Post" doesn't mean the package gets given to the courier faster, it means the courier (once they have it) delivers it faster.
@@fred_derf Actually, having worked in the distribution industry for a parcel delivery service, YES IT DOES get "sent to the front of the line". It gets priority service before the others that DID NOT PAY EXTRA. I am in the shipping industry now. I went from distribution to shipping. I'm not a hotshot driver, but if someone wants me to do hotshot and pays me hotshot rate, I will certainly put their delivery before the rest. If you pay the normal delivery rate you wait a normal amount of time for it. That means getting packed, labeled, on the truck, and sent out, driven to destination, and delivered. When you pay extra money for faster service, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO GEY FASTER SERVICE. What makes you think it's up to the poor driver to make up for the person packaging it's lost time for laziness/revenge? "Oh they're having a shity day so I'll show them who not to fuck with" but instead, you're only getting other people in trouble for because you didn't do your job. The driver then takes the heat for that when it's not there on time.
Why would you do that to mourners who have nothing to do with the situation you're angry about? You're punishing people who are going through a death to get nicer fence? That's fucked up.

The first guy got it wrong. If you place an Express order and it is paid for with extra money to send it express, that has to be sent quickly so that the time limitation based on the extra fee is met. If the extra money goes entirely to the company that ships it Express for the firm, that is a fault of whoever set that system up. The fact remains that you have ordinary delivery and then you have the express delivery. So even before we get all the way through it, the first guy is wrong. They should simply refund The charges
+rogersheddy6414, writes _"The first guy got it wrong. "_ No he didn't. The *shipping method* is the *shipping method.* You're thinking of some kind of _expedited service,_ which would be a separate charge.

Once it's ready, I'll get it the next day.
@fred_derf They state most of their business is done online. If you do this, the shipper picks up daily. Therefore, the express service, depending on time of day, CAN be granted in a timely fashion. Extra fees are charged for express deliveries PRECISELY because of the expectation. So if you don't honor the time pressures express shipping brings with it, or explain your conception of what "express" means, don't offer it.

That last story, OP should've punched his cousin every time she insulted him. Then tell the cousin it will only get worse from here. And if the aunt objects, punch her in the chops too. Or introduce laxatives into their food and/or drinks.
I think your typo is better than your intended post: OP shouldn't punch his cousin. It's pretty obvious that would only result in OP getting in big trouble with the aunt AND grandma, and wouldn't teach CeCe a damned thing. OP took the high road, and won. That was the best course, imho.
Story One: Dude, express post is NOT the same as expedited fulfilment. Expedited fulfilment was not available anywhere during the major waves of covid. I would have cancelled the order after he said "your best isn't good enough". That would be enough for me to say, "I'm sorry we aren't able to meet your service requirements, I will cancel the order", and hang up the phone.

I do online retail customer service. Story 1 reminds me of when a cst cursed me out because no one was able to take her call for 2 days. I apologized and explained that we were under a mandatory hurricane evacuation. She told me that is no excuse and our company needs to relocate to an area that is not affected by natural disasters. I asked her to PLEASE tell me where that is, so I can move there. 😂 she hung up on me.
This made me remember something I had seen a while back, where someone decided to see where arable land intersects with low occurrence/severity of natural disasters.
As it turns out, the Midwest avoids most natural disasters. Or at least doesn't get hit hard enough to grind things to a halt.
As long as you're not near the lake shores, and not in a flood plain, you avoid the worst of what the area can throw at you.
The Pacific-Northwest was also mentioned, because the disaster risk is quite low, and the climate is still acceptable.
I live in an area that is hardly ever hit with natural disasters, but we do still (occasionally) get one (although the ones we do get are often tame in comparison to most other parts of the world)
I think the last one we had was over a year ago at this point (and i am not aware of any before that one)
Unless you count thunderstorms, which we have had a few, but most pass uneventfully (there was one thunderstorm which somehow blew up our combined modem/router thingy (the one that the ISP automatically sent us, ISPs here don’t give you the option of using your own equipment (well, technically you can but the level of support you get will often vary between no support whatsoever and a confused support person (in the case of the issue we had last night, they would ask if the light on the box is red, orange, flashing orange, flashing purple, blue, green, etc…))))
Story 3: Nah OP, you were just defending your employee, who was off the clock, being harassed by a Karen. Karen was lying about someone, so you explained the truth.
Never ever lie, especially face to face or on social media! I hate outright liars!!!!! And I’m glad this “lady” git what she deserved!
If you don't tell lies about us, we won't tell the truth about you.
There's a big difference between calling on the power of Karen in defense of someone else, and being a Karen to harass others
Karens don't realize that by lying and making a big deal about it someone is going set the story straight, tell the truth and get the Karen in trouble for lying to everyone.
I was wondering that G.D. Man is short from "Glowing Dick man"
I feel sorry for CeCe's husband. But most of all for the kids.
Yeah, you know those kids are going to be obnoxious brats just like she is.
Can imagine what kind of brat they are if they are anything like their mother.
She probably can't count how many kids she has.
And here I'm wondering how a girl who constantly harasses her cousin and yet expects him to help her pass school was able to even date anyone, let alone get married and have three kids
Lets hope she's matured, for kids' sake.
Look...... sometimes ya gotta go full Karen to take down a Karen. Good on OP for standing behind their employees and going onto Facebook and doing that.
How was that being karen? Op defended their job and co-workers by telling truth; karens are arrogant, selfish and more or less narcissistic jerks who hurt others, lie and use every possible dirty trick to gain what they want.
in regards to story 2, how much do you want to bet that they hid a special little clause or two in that contract? they were far too insistent in getting them to sign right then and there without reading it.
Exactly what I was thinking the moment they said they couldn't leave it with OP. Threw up a huge red flag that would have put me on my guard immediately. As im sure it did OP
@@jacthing1 Having someone that insistent on you signing something without reading it isn't a huge red flag, that's a huge crimson warning sign with flashing lights and a loud alarm sound.
Some lady posted a rant on our neighborhood group complaining about the trash pick up company and she called company to complain too. She shows a video of her parking where she wasn’t supposed to in an apt complex narrow parking lot Truck was trying to come in to replace a bin but couldn’t since her car was blocking it. She is trying to leave forcing truck to let her out while another apt resident was also trying to get in but couldn’t because of truck. Truck gets in does job and she was nearby and her and driver got into it. She thought everyone would be on her side but nope. I saw a couple people calling her out nicely and the post was taken down if she just parked real quick there were available spaces both her and driver would have been able to do what they had to. Some people 🤦🏽♀️
Story 1 - OP should have just cancelled their original order and put a note on their account as being an abusive customer, then closed their account.
Story two is a masterwork, especially the green speedo! Bravo!
Re Story 3, Karens need to experience consequences, being Kounter-Karened among such consequences.
That first story was geting me hard - "I don't care if you're hardly understaffed by a pandemic, I want my stuff NOW!" - well, get it somewhere else, when you need it so bad!
CeCe is a nightmare. My God. Reminds me of a former friend of mine who used to piss off everyone she knew and discard them once she got what she wanted. Everything about her was based on reciprocity. For context, imagine a middle-aged woman with the emotional maturity of a 5-year-old. She had no respect for boundaries, zero comprehension of the meaning of the word no or that it's often a complete sentence and nothing resembling accountability. Therefore, she had no expectation of their being consequences as well as reprisals for her atrocious, unprincipled, immoral, unethical and downright illegal behavior. She had the absolute nerve to spread an entirely untrue rumor that I caught an STI from a one-night stand, outed me to my estranged extremely homophobic conservative Italian Roman Catholic father, then begged me to share my inheritance with her when my father passed away from stage 4 lung (no such inheritance existed) cancer, completely glossing over the fact that she said the two of us never got along anyway and couldn't understand why I wouldn't bail her out from becoming homeless when her home went into foreclosure.
Naturally, she tried to guilt trip me and tugged at my heart-strings stating her children would end up living on the streets and it would be “my fault.” I point blank told her that she did that to herself and got herself in the situation by living outside of her financial means by never keeping a job, buying a car she couldn't afford to keep up with the payments on and being more concerned with her hair having fresh highlights, getting her nails done, having a full pack of cigarettes and booze in the fridge. I also pointed out that her kids often wore ill-fitting clothes, shoes that didn't fit, often didn't have supplies for school or nutritious food to eat but she always looked great and had a pound of makeup caked on. Of course she couldn't handle the truth and facts were just pesky little irrelevances that got in the way of her ever-changing victim narrative, she took to social media talking about how no one really understands how hard it is to be a mother and raise children, blah, blah, blah. Everyone knew what a deadbeat she was and these attention-seeking posts were nothing new with her. She didn't get near the sympathetic reaction she was looking for, deleted the post by the end of the day and then made another one about how she was going to deactivate for a while because "social media is just too toxic.” She got a few laugh reactions but did not get the outpour of support of people begging her to stay that she was hoping for. We're not friends anymore. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
From the sound of it, the woman you're talking about has textbook antisocial personality disorder (or borderline personality disorder but antisocial seems more likely). (edit: clarification)
@@xegin1572 Possible, but I think she was just a narcissist with sociopathic tendencies.
@@iononcantomascrivo I wouldn't say narcisist for 2 reasons:
-the term lost all its meaning from people throwing it around for anything and everything
-she litterally checks all the symptoms of ASPD
As for sociopathic tendancies, that's litterally what antisocial personality disorder is.
Symptoms of ASPD are:
-incapacity or lack of willingness to show empathy
-incapacity to take accountability, clear rejection of one's obligations, rules, and norms
-difficulty to maintain long term relationships but no difficulty to start new ones
-low tolerance to frustation, inclined to agressive and violent behavior
-incapacity to feel guilt
-incapacity to learn for social interactions
-tendancy to lie, for profit or just for pleasure
-tendancy to blame others or rationalize plausible excuses
Pretty sure from what you said she checks all the boxes and we don't need to add narcisim on top of that to explain her beharvior
@@xegin1572 Those are all valid points. However, please keep in mind that what I shared was a very abridged take on the nearly decade she was a part of my life. Put it this way: I'm a published writer and if I ever need inspiration for writing a villain, I can just think of her.
Story 1: My ultra-petty ass would have responded "Agreed. Your terms are acceptable. I am cancelling your order now and refunding the charge. Have a nice day!"
Story 2: Do not ever fuck with people that have something that you need. Mr. & Mrs. Funeral Home discovered the term "Fuck Around & Found Out" has real-life meaning.
Nah, don't cancel his order right away. Let him twist in the wind for a couple of days and *then* cancel his order.
Last story: CeCe failed because of CeCe, not OP. It is her responsibility as a student to learn. A tutor can't magically make her learn it. OP also isn't the only tutor on the planet. OP's aunt should have done something long before the last test to pass or fail. She should have been getting CeCe help long before then or cracking down on her to study. She was wrong to lay any of this at OP's doorstep.
OP's aunt clearly enabled CeCe's abuse to OP, because if not how do you explain said aunt always believing CeCe's lies?
Story 2: Man, as someone going into the funeral industry, the second hand embarrassment I get from those funeral home owners is huge, they're literally doing the opposite of what any funeral home should be doing which is being a welcome and friendly addition to their community, as we are meant to serve the community that we are located in. I bet money that the owners were between late 40s - early 70s, as in my experience, those are the owners that tend to be the biggest dickheads about things.
Story 6: OP sounds like my kind of nerd. 10/10 would friend
Last Story -
Grandma: OP! You shouldn't be swearing! That being said, I agree with you - she's a witch.
Story 3 - your right Karen, the customer comes first. And since I’m not on the clock right now I’m a customer and I’m going to get something to eat.
Funeral home fence story: Idiots! All of this must have cost them three or more times what it would have if they had just gone about doing it right the first time. And I'll bet that "agreement" would have assigned most, if not all, of the costs of the fence to OP, which is why they tried the 9pm tactic. After I told them "NO" the second time, I would have been calling the police to remove "violent" trespassers.
Applicance Karen story: In this day and age of online presence, this is how Karens need to be handled. Embarras them with the truth and let others turn on THEM, which is a Karen's worst nightmare.
YAY Grandma!!!
We must turn the power of Twitter to our advantage against them
Regarding the fence: the homeowner should have solicited other funeral homes to put advertising on the homeowners side of the fence! 😂
The fence story is more prorevenge than petty
The customer isn't always right!!😂😂
👏👏❣️👏👏
AMEN!
I have worked retail for the majority of my working life..
And NO truer statement has ever been made!
Whomever decided to say this..
The customer is always right.. REALLY needs to have their damn head examined!!
Because in my experience with the public... 99% of the time.. Customer is WRONG!
Why, you may ask? Well... Majority of the time they either:
A. Read the signage WRONG
OR
B. TRIED to change the price tag on the item or MOVE the item to a different shelf!
@Tara Harvey that I believe!!
Some customers are only right if you're standing to their left.
The customer is always right, in matters of taste.

Family does not mean you can abuse someone and then expect them to help you when THEY need it.
Definitely felt the last one. In elementary/ early middle school I was definitely the stereotypical quiet nerd and therefore an easy target for bullies. Funny how quick they'd slither their way over and beg for help when they needed assistance in something not within their skill set. I'd usually agree (unless it was someone I really despised) but always made sure I got more out of the deal than they did
Every lie we tell incurs a debt to the truth.
Sooner or later, that debt is paid.

Why on earth would you want the cousin you've tormented for years to tutor you? Like, that would be the perfect opportunity for them to ingrain in you an incorrect method of solving the problems, and then you go take your exams and get a big fat F! And even worse, unlearning something is much harder than learning something new. Frankly, Cece was lucky OP didn't agree to teach her.
The last one... that grandma is one who gives some raising when the kid was not getting it at home...
Story 2: if anybody comes up to you and tries to tell you that you "HAVE TO" sign something, they know they're trying to do something illegal. The only people that can force you to sign something is a court judge, and even then that's very situational.
Judges usually require your lawyer to read it and explain it to you first. Yeah, the judge may require you to sign it that day, but they explain it, their clerk explains it or your lawyer explains it to you first. Most judges started their judicial careers as lawyers.
I saw someone who went by a nickname sign one of those pushy contracts with it then argue it was not his legal name so it was not valid when they tried to enforce the nasty stuff hidden in the contract. It worked.
They can't force you to sign something, a contract is invalid if it's signed under duress. The court can give you an option, sign this or this other thing is going to happen.
If the court wants to "make you agree" to something, they'll just rule that way and you don't have a choice and you're agreement isn't required.
That earbud story was so satisfying!
Final story. OP! You are my kinda people! Go nerds!
S2. The fencing champion 🏆 of the neighbourhood! I adore this op
S3. Using your inner Karen for the greater good is a superpower
S2: I love the order, too. OP didn't report the foam core fence until AFTER they had to climb over it to get rid of the other fence.
I looooove S5. She was so smug thinking she got away with free expensive earbuds and happily flaunted them to rub salt on the wound. Oooo her happy time had a satisfying end when karma struck~
In the last story he should have helped CeCe the way Bud helped Kelly with her book report on Robinson Crusoe, but instead he told her the story of Gilligan's Island. The teachers response:"Miss Bundy, even you aren't that stupid."
Story 6: So she made 3 more heckspawns? Oh no.
I love the story about the fence. I'm like OP. I don't sign things I haven't read!
CeCe is married with three kids....what? Who allowed that hellspawn to reproduce?
Last one, you need to stand up for yourself more. That's why they thought they could bully you.
Love the funeral home story. Lesson learned.
"don't be like that, you're family"
So? Im more than happy to cut ties with you
The last story is a bit disheartening because that annoying female cousin has three kids and she’s anything but mother material.
My ex-boyfriend (we are still good friends) bought me headphones this past Christmas. They have a mic, cover my ears so don't irritate like earbuds do, and are really better than any I would willingly pay for. He made a comment about them not being wireless, which I basically said that it was fine; I was thrilled! I later found out he had bought his 2 son's wireless headphones. That's fine, they are his son's! Maybe he thought I would be jealous? I love the ones he gave me: they are comfortable, they sound better than my computer speakers, and I don't mind the cord at all, though I did put a twist tie around part of it to keep it from being much too long. I mean, I could probably go get a glass of water from my kitchen without disconnecting the headphones, that kind of long. Still, I don't have to worry about batteries, recharging... I mean, if the power goes out, both would only last as long as our phones lasted. Maybe theirs would last a little longer if all phones were fully charged, but I wouldn't want to place a bet. My phone holds a good charge a really long time, days if I skip phone games...
Stuff like that (battery life and whatnot) are why every set of headphones I buy are Bluetooth/wired hybrids
You can go to your kitchen with the headphone still connected? Daaaamn .. in my country, I can hardly find anything with cord longer that 1.5 meter.
@@gorilladisco9108 I have a tiny apartment. That being said, the cord is still crazy long! Even with most of looped up, I still have 3ft of cord. I am guessing (I lost my measuring tape) that it is about 10ft long.
Story 2... I would say the demanding they sign the agreement at 9pm and to sign it immediately would be considered duress. I would have done the same. They did well to deal with each and every issue they did to resolve the issue... I am thinking the agreement was one which was extremely one-sided and wasn't one they wanted to deal with...
The agreement was 100% a scam. You don't need your neighbour's permission to build a fence on your property, period.
I would have told the cousin and the aunt that she is failing herself because she isn’t pulling her finger out and putting in the effort to earn the grade, and that is not my responsibility. If aunt had raised her daughter to respect others rather than bully, she’d get the tutoring lickety-split.
story 6
GRANDMA: "he's out of line, but hes right"!
Should have asked the guards at the dorm where to go to report stolen property and reported airpod t*at for same...
Last story, OP should have taken the Aunt's money, as much as she could get, and intentionally screw up the tutoring so that asshole cousin failed HARD. "I tried my best, but I guess she's just fucking stupid."
"I guess the lessons didn't sink in" would be my response after getting the salary of real tutors like say 500 to 600 bucks give or take
Like Bud Bundy 'tutoring' Kelly! He mixes up The Raven with the Addams Family and Robinson Crusoe with Gilligan's Island!
@@drakofox1362 I read that line in Umbridge's voice.....*shudders* lol
I respect that after all free money
Final story: the purpose of siblings (older or younger), especially when they're over age 13: they will piss you off but they are always there to help or able to advise when someone else is being an asshole to you.
Last story - Grandma Rocks!!!
Story 1: OP is the bigger a-hole of 2 a-holes
Story 2: 2 a-holes but again, OP is the bigger one

What i love most about that Airpods story is that that wasn't even revenge - *that was sweet, delicious KARMA at its finest* 😋😋😋
That’s not revenge, that’s giving them a new definition of the word ‘even’.
A good life lesson. Be careful of who you mess with. You never know what they're capable of or willing to do.
The store complaint woman was quite clearly a Felisha.
The funeral fence story...
Touche!!!
#5
too good Karma, too blooming good 😈
Sounds like that Funeral Home made their casket and had to lay in it.
Airpods story: girl! You really think you can steal and blatantly cross boundaries and expect them to come grovelling when you threaten to break up? It was already over!
The more I learn about the human race, the more I shake my head in confusion.
Story 1 -- "I'll never shop with you again."
"Promise?"
The Last Story, the epilogue what they left out was CiCi's married with three kids and she's a widower because her husband blew his effing brains out after kid number three came and he was constantly being told that his devil spawn were perfectly innocent and could do no wrong after they crashed his car and did a whole bunch other fun stuff they had the police coming to the house in the neighborhood hating them and every single teacher at the school wanting to literally sacrifice them in the streets! LOL so unfortunately he had a choice, stay with that or blow is effing brains out, he made the right choice in my opinion!
Keep up the petty, man. My favourite sort of revenge.
Story 1, I would like fire the poster.
I have a cousin like Cece once... Her mom is a goodness but she's a little bit "chaotic"
Her mom give us the permission to do anything to fix her behavior and I.... Slap her so hard that she didn't know what's going on anymore... And after that she became more like a human then animal
My dad had a ten-year dispute over a fence line. The "neighbor" wasn't clear to his contractors and they bulldozed the fence, opening one of our pastures and making it useless for livestock. The guy even refused to replace the fence.
My dad was a truck driver, and delivered to lots of businesses around Detroit with very Italian owners, some with connections. One of them asked what was bothering Dad, and offered to take care of whatever it was...
Thankfully, Dad declined the offer, instead planning to put in a hog pen next to the neighbor.
It would have been nicer to go with the "Italians"...
Story 5: A relationship dies as soon as an ultimatum is made.
"Do this, or we're done!"
"Sacrifice this, or we're done!"
"Buy me this, or we're done!"
All ultimatums do is tell your that their love is conditional, and that if you don't meet up with their standards anymore or that you can't provide them with what they wanted anymore, they won't love you anymore.
Way to go OP!!
The fence one wasn't petty, it wasn't pro, it was near God tier revenge
S3 when they go low, you go low. OP's post was like battery acid. It burned thru the thick skin of Qaren and, ouch! that hurt.
Did the ear bud chick really think that OP would want to date her after she ripped him off?
Yup indeed just like with the massage one. Welcome to entitled women that assume the world revolves around them and that they could be as rotten as they want Because you're not supposed to get mad. It's almost sad in a specific way when reality shows them that no that's not how the world works. As she specifically learned so I really really hope that losing him for a bunch of earpods was worth it. I'm sure she assumed he would forgive her eventually in it her behavior pretty much just threw up a huge a** red flag. Especially after He unblock her. They say if they see bad behavior like this as harmless And all in good fun when the only one laughing is them then yeah Time to move on
Story 2 - Where I live, putting pressure to sign a contract is illegal. Putting pressure to sign a contract without reading is very very illegal. Why : because the contract can bind you to almost anything. Even if these thing are legal (anyway, they need to), they still can bind you to gave them your house, your car and your dog! And, more than often, pressured contract signed go hand to hand with "not what has been spoke" and "you should have read the small characters" and "your in deep s**t now!".
Story 5 after that i would have also reported her for stealing as op had the receipts of both
About pushing people… yup. That’s me. I’m normally chill. My ex psycho got me to that point. I tossed everything I could, food included, down the trash chute. Gave away, for free, everything else that didn’t fit down the chute. Hopped on the next flight almost 4,000 miles away. I wish I left a cam to see his reaction when he got home from work that day.
first story: okay but guy kinda had the right to be mad, he paid for express and he is wasting money because of reasons out of his control.
but ofc op is not at all at fault so the guy shot himself in the foot by being a jerk. what he should’ve done is to ask for the express money back.
Woah, uploaded 10 minutes ago! That’s a new record for me! 😊. Can’t wait to hear the stories~
Whoa, not woah. Hope this helps.
Thanks for being you!
Nope. Clocking in comes first.
Thanks for the shout out, Dark Fluff and Steve-o :) you totally made my morning after a pretty horrible week xx Fan for LIFE of BOTH of you
Sorry, but that first one had the right to complain. Yes, when you pay for expedited services you DO expect it to be expedited. It doesn't matter what item it was. Arrows or oxygen masks. It isn't up to YOU to decide whether or not you pack it last because you're having a bad day.
Simple rule of thumb: if you can't guarantee the expedited services that customers are PAYING FOR, don't offer them.
Certainly don't get an attitude and deliberately delay it.
That wasn't "revenge", that was really really bad customer service
+byronmccall1554, writes _"Yes, when you pay for expedited services you DO expect it to be expedited."_
But he didn't pay for _expedited service,_ he paid for Express Post which is a shipping method, and which he would have received.
@@fred_derf
Express post is just that. It's 2 to 3 days service instead of 5 to 7 Day service. "Expedited" in case you didn't know means increased speed. It means you get it faster. That's what Express post is. It's an expedited service. It's not one day or overnight but it is still supposed to be faster than just putting it in the regular delivery queue.
@@byronmccall1554 An order being shipped "Express Post" doesn't mean the order jumps to the front of the line in the shipping department. It means it gets shipped "Express Post", which is how the order in this case would be shipped.
Being shipped "Express Post" doesn't mean the package gets given to the courier faster, it means the courier (once they have it) delivers it faster.
@@fred_derf
Actually, having worked in the distribution industry for a parcel delivery service, YES IT DOES get "sent to the front of the line". It gets priority service before the others that DID NOT PAY EXTRA.
I am in the shipping industry now. I went from distribution to shipping. I'm not a hotshot driver, but if someone wants me to do hotshot and pays me hotshot rate, I will certainly put their delivery before the rest. If you pay the normal delivery rate you wait a normal amount of time for it. That means getting packed, labeled, on the truck, and sent out, driven to destination, and delivered.
When you pay extra money for faster service, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO GEY FASTER SERVICE. What makes you think it's up to the poor driver to make up for the person packaging it's lost time for laziness/revenge? "Oh they're having a shity day so I'll show them who not to fuck with" but instead, you're only getting other people in trouble for because you didn't do your job. The driver then takes the heat for that when it's not there on time.
Welp.... at least we know that CeCe can count to 3.
That guy should see the mail in my country, if you want something asap you have to order 2 months in advance...
Why would you do that to mourners who have nothing to do with the situation you're angry about? You're punishing people who are going through a death to get nicer fence? That's fucked up.

Story #5...
HELL NO!!
I would've told her to KICK ROCKS that very day.. that she jumped out of the car!!
That type of 💩 is SOOO BRATTY!
On that last one... I was kicked out of a high school class for using the word bitch correctly.
I did not shop or buy from Sears for the last 17 years of their existance because they lied to me and I told them I would never buy anything from them again. Right now, I will never rent a car from Fox (since 2006) car rentals and Hertz.(since 2022, just occured in October)

Earbud story-😅op-“sure, give them back so I can try to get a free case for them, I might convince we didn’t get them of left in store-but you can’t come coz I have to be somewhere straight after-I’ll give it all back tonight”- she gives them back to op “thanks sweetie” -op then yoinks and exits….then ghosts and returns the earbuds for a credit.
story 2 definitely had some sorta sneaky bullshit in it like seceding part/all of his property or having him pay for the fencing or some horsepiss like that
Nope - if company have "express" service, it means product is bump up to top of list.
Chances are that contract probably made the op liable for paying for part of the fence, or damages on their side or something like that.
The first guy got it wrong. If you place an Express order and it is paid for with extra money to send it express, that has to be sent quickly so that the time limitation based on the extra fee is met.
If the extra money goes entirely to the company that ships it Express for the firm, that is a fault of whoever set that system up. The fact remains that you have ordinary delivery and then you have the express delivery.
So even before we get all the way through it, the first guy is wrong. They should simply refund The charges
+rogersheddy6414, writes _"The first guy got it wrong. "_
No he didn't. The *shipping method* is the *shipping method.* You're thinking of some kind of _expedited service,_ which would be a separate charge.
I've ordered lots of stuff on "overnight delivery" that has an expected delivery several days in the future because it will take a few days to get the product ready for shipment. Once it's ready, I'll get it the next day.
@fred_derf
They state most of their business is done online.
If you do this, the shipper picks up daily. Therefore, the express service, depending on time of day, CAN be granted in a timely fashion.
Extra fees are charged for express deliveries PRECISELY because of the expectation.
So if you don't honor the time pressures express shipping brings with it, or explain your conception of what "express" means, don't offer it.
@@rogersheddy6414 "Express shipping" and "Express Service" are two different things. When you're ordering on-line and given a choice of _Shipping Method,_ you are choosing the shipping method.

Derf, I work with shipping on a daily basis. You are just blowing smoke.
The first guy was just a jerk, plain and simple. And it is obvious the commentator, like you, just doesn't get that.
@@rogersheddy6414 Just because the customer chose to use "Express Post", which is a service supplied by the Post Office doesn't mean he gets bumped to the from of the line in the shipping department.

That last story, OP should've punched his cousin every time she insulted him. Then tell the cousin it will only get worse from here.
And if the aunt objects, punch her in the chops too.
Or introduce laxatives into their food and/or drinks.
I think your typo is better than your intended post: OP shouldn't punch his cousin. It's pretty obvious that would only result in OP getting in big trouble with the aunt AND grandma, and wouldn't teach CeCe a damned thing.
OP took the high road, and won. That was the best course, imho.
Story One: Dude, express post is NOT the same as expedited fulfilment. Expedited fulfilment was not available anywhere during the major waves of covid. I would have cancelled the order after he said "your best isn't good enough". That would be enough for me to say, "I'm sorry we aren't able to meet your service requirements, I will cancel the order", and hang up the phone.
