First Story: I’d be pissed if my boss had the balls to say they would give me a 1% raise. Good on OP for getting on the company like this and getting what he rightfully deserves.
any sane dude would walk out on 1 percent.but he kept his cool and.wait
any revenge is best served ice cold
I mean with inflation on 8 % Per year 1% every 6 months mean they pay you less😂
For the first story, OP had it in writing that management would give him 15% raise after 6 months so in theory when the company was notified of this then offered the 6% he could have bean very mean about it, the $200 an hour is honestly nicer revenge considering once people learn how to use this amazing new tech he won’t need to be paid
Second story: NTA how tf is it Op's fault pretty much all of bf's family got severely sick from a dinner party that she didn't even go to and Op tried everything possible to get across to bf and was at her wits end
The question was specifically about the first instance of faking the illness. The whole fiasco of the family getting sick after is unrelated fluff to the story. OP's not at fault for them getting sick at the party, but that's not what we're talking about. Please read the title of that post carefully - "Am I the jerk for faking food poisoning to teach my boyfriend a lesson?" No where in the title does it ask about what happened at the party.
To me if the whole thing is not BS that second part seems fishy as if just added to make the Op be in the right as probably most people would agree that pretending to be sick to prove a point is shitty thing to do, notice also apparently not just the bf but most of his family are a$$holes too according to the Op.
@@keiromultiverse3608 I don't think OP is a jerk, even when looking at the original title. The boyfriend isn't really a jerk either, just not being sanitary in the kitchen.
Yh op tly nta nc
Op is a liar at this point why would the boyfriend want to stay with her at this point she’s just a manipulative b
To be fair, the company was doomed from the getgo if they decided to depend on only ONE DEVELOPER.
They set him up for the start since he was the only one doing the work, so he has the bargain power over them.
Story 6: the OP is the jerk here for various reasons: 1) your son will 100% get in trouble just for the fact that the mom is in an unauthorized area. like if you want an item; just ask for it and your son can just look for it in inventory while you walk around in the store. 2) Telling you any information about the order would be a breach in customer privacy and surely you wouldn't like it if a random friend of yours found out about your order right? 3) you obviously should know why your son is mad at you; he almost got in trouble because of your selfishness so you need to make it up to him somehow or he will not let you live it down for a very long time.
Thank you, I couldn't say it better myself.
"New Management" is always bywords for INCOMPETENCE. Isn't their fault they're walking into a situation they are unaware of and inevitably will MESS UP when they try to get a grasp.
Doesn’t mean they don’t have to adhere to the contract. If they have the 400,000 to pay him that means they could have given him the agreed upon 15%. Not his fault they tried to weasel their way out the contract.
@@dylangerber5163 I agree. You misunderstood, I understand their situation BUT I have never seen any "New Management" capable of managing without F'ups.
they dont know crap then.they dont know the deal made previously and try to squeeze every penny they can save.the HR also to blame
he mustve known bout the deal back then and he tries get off the hook by blaming it solely on the new management lol
@@dylangerber5163 he snared em.to.point where its cheaper to pay 400 a year than risking total colllpase on aystem when not being maintain
he got the key and he also got immunity then being fulltime there when they agreed it.theyncanr even sue him if it goes down after he left assuming it was maintenance issue and not sabotage. they are on a pinch lol
first story : he cannot be a jerk
the management had it coming
All stories replied to.
Story 1: NTA and I've heard nightmare work stories where the person tries to get their agreed upon raise and instead they get fired/let go(Contract not renewed). OP did exactly as he should have to force the company to pay OP his fair dues.
Story 2: So I'm guessing the BF mother was the one who taught him the kitchen hygiene/etiquette. Because with half the dinner party getting E-coli from food poisoning and the mother blaming OP, it's likely she has made the food this way for years and just been stupid lucky. I'm going with NTA because it seems like OP barely dodged getting actually sick.
Story 3: NTA because if the gender was reversed people would be piling on OP to break it off because "GuY's ShOuLdN't PoLiCe WoMeN's ClOtHiNg", as such it should theoretically be the opposite way as well. So long as the pants aren't ripped at the butt or intentionally made to look incredibly bad I don't see what the problem is, especially if it's just his "lazy" clothing for general use, and not like his work clothing/formal attire.
Story 4: NTA though OP probably shouldn't have laughed when he explained his dog's name. Laughing probably didn't help.
Story 5: NTA and the dude is just a player, block him and move on.
Story 6: WOW, YTA MASSIVELY. I actually worked as a internet order fulfillment person at a certain hardware store, when you grab an item you are removing it from stock, so taking it out of the cart is like taking an already paid for item as someone leaves the store. I mean she literally went into a non-customer area to take the item, she deserves to be banned from the store for life.
I agree on all of these
I would be honored to meet a dog (or any animal) with my name
The last story made me laugh because we get the perspective of a Karen for once.
i can just tell story 1 is from malicious compliance he made it as good as he possibly can, and he made it so good that if he wasnt there to mantain it and keep it good the company would be screwed as they would have nobody else to do it thats so perfect not the jerk at all
The last one has "i'm the KAREN" writen all over.
Story 1: Amazing, you're not a jerk, you're the best.
Story 2: yes, the way to teach them a lesson was to break up before faking illnesses.
Story 3: you're not a jerk.
Story 4: you're not a jerk, your sister and her bf are.
Story 5: wtf? How are doubting yourself? You're not a jerk.
Story 6: you're a jerk and a karen.
thats fucking true
Facts
The OP in story 2 did such a shitty thing, yes, she was right about kitchen hygiene. But you shouldn't pretend being ill to get your point across.
@@I-am-invisibleI'm not gonna disagree it wasn't nice but how would she get it through to him if he never listens to her when she warns him about the risk otherwise?
@@warrenhill6623 no it was a a-hole move just to prove a point.
Story 2: My MIL has a similar issue. She does a quick rinse (cold water) and wipe of dishes in the sink before putting them in the drying rack. I’ve re-washed dishes, pans, bowls etc.. where I could clearly see oil, grease and food still stuck to them. She is +50 and the only one at her home that cleans (FIL once told me cooking/cleaning is “women’s work”..he is +70 and I was cooking for them at the time😅). I’m shocked they both aren’t dead or hospitalized yet.
7:26 bro said Ç Ã R Ń Ï T Å Š
I'd be pretty pissed off if my boss did that to me! A 1% raise?! Are you freaking kidding me? I would've done the same thing! To that contractor, Kudos to you and you did a wonderful job on that. I never thought that revenge would take so sweet and I'm digging it! No! The contractor wasn't the jerk his boss was the total jerk for trying to cheat the contractor of his money which was rightfully his.
The fuck was that one percent raise?!! My god. Glad op got sweet sweet revenge against this.
First story:
Management: Well, yeah uh, we had a deal, but instead, we'll offer you this.
OP: Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Regarding story #3, just loose the pants... and then require her to throw away any and all clothing that you don't like, or don't think is appropriate. If one part in a relationship can tell the other what to wear or how to dress, that part should have the same privilege.
Alternatively, people can grow up and treat each other as adults.
Food poisoning is no joke, an unsafely prepared meal at KFC once laid out my entire family for a week.
Story 1: “Never worry about betraying your employer because, given the chance, they will definitely betray you.
Loyalty to individuals. Relationships. That’s what makes the world go round.” -The Blacklist/Raymond Reddington
Omg the way you said carnitas was amazing
For the first story. Not the jerk. Basically the company went back on their agreement. Probably more likely so that can save that money for either management or the higher ups.
I feel sorry for the son in the last story.
Because hopefully he only gets a warning after his mother's idiocy.
Considering he got his higher ups to kick her out I think he wouldn’t be in trouble
Story #3: So the gf is basically saying "Me thinking that they're ugly is more important than you being comfortable"
My last dog was named Wallace. Everyone thought it was cool he had a human name. Sir William Waldo Wallace.
So if the dog was named Wallace, is your name Gromit by any chance?
:3
@@Phoenixfirex lol naw. He just kinda looked like a critter that should be named Wallace. Although to be fair everyone had a different name for him. My mother called him shadow, neighbor called him sparkly, my dad called him Waldo. You could call him whatever you want, just don't call him late for dinner.
Story 2- she is not a jerk. I worked in catering for a lot of years. I accidently sliced a finger when cutting lettuce, just a few drops of blood but that was 25 iceberg lettuce, already chopped, that had to be binned. Putting a chicken contaminated board away without scrubbing it, then spraying with food safe sanitizer or bleach, which happens in my house. Whoa. One place I worked, had a food poisoning outbreak. I'd only been there a week so wasn't blamed for it. But when questioned I pointed out that I had seen some of the staff just pouring fresh orange juice, into the drinks machine without washing the machine out first, or discarding the old, used stuff. At the time I tried to tell them that they needed to wash it out, I was told there wasn't enough time and as a new hire I should mind my own business. The worst thing was that if there was more than a handful of glasses of juice in the bottom, it wasn't wasn't given an overnight clean. As it was at a very popular theme park type place, the outbreak gave over 300 people food poisoning.
Third story: fighting over a pair of pants is just insane
Story4: not a jerk.
Side note my brother had a dog named Katie. Then one day he met and dated(and eventually married) a woman named Katie. She didn't ever have a problem with his dog's name being Katie. We all just added Sue to her name when speaking of the dog. Katie Sue was the sweetest dog(RIP) And Katie has been a true jem added to our family.
My dog's name is gwendolyn I didn't Pick it her milk name was diva and she lived up to it. I was watching total drama and she kept perking up When anyone said Gwen's name so I turned her and said Gwen she happily jumps around I said Guinevere she just gives me a look Then I said Gwendolyn And she perked up and started spinning around, so she picked her own name.
Being pissed over pants is absolutely petty and ridiculous. Lol
I'm sure the OP who created dishes with dirty tools just created an iron tummy for himself!!!
For the second story with a boyfriend and girlfriend cooking at first I’m 100% with her that’s very bad behavior food contamination is not a joke but her timing and knowing it was during a very important dinner was really messed up she should’ve chosen a different day but she decided to play her cards on a sensitive day or sensitive occasion so she is and she is not a jerk
Software dev is not the jerk. They had a contract, and he knew his worth.
Food poisoning girl is the jerk for manipulation, but not the jerk for her point of wanting to avoid food poisoning. She should have dumped him instead of faking.
Pants couple: that is trivial.
Brad dog, no big deal.
Car girl is not the jerk. He did the damage.
I totally agree with the dude who's getting 200/hr. Work smart, not hard.
In the first story the company definitely deserved that. A 15% raise would (the way the op described his work) wouldn't be justified and they had the balls to offer him a 1% raise. Totally deserved from the company and great job from op
Story 1: The company refused to honor his deal, so he made a new deal. If anyone says he's shady, nope he just played their dirty game better
You can get parasites from uncooked pork and other meets
The faking being sick while a jerk move did save the op from getting sick in the future
The last one is just crazy
I love ur channel and I’m trying to listen to every story. Thank you for making this content.
Story 1: Company tried to screw OP into agreeing on lower wage his skill set was initially rated for. Since then he has rounded out his skills and thus eligible for much more money matching his skills and now experience. Management acted like a bully and paid the price for it. NTA
I met and briefly dated a guy who’s dog and I not only had the same name, but the same strawberry blonde hair. We both thought it was hilarious!
NGL, I thought the last story was gonna be about OPs son having random stuff in the cart that was left lying around but the moment she said "Back Rooms" I instantly knew she was the Jerk
The clothing one: offer to throw out the trousers if the wife can find another pair that she likes the look of but also feel as good to wear.
Story 3. No dont get rid of your pants because if the story was flipped everyone would be saying her body her choice
If someone's pet had the same name as me, I'd be laughing. I'd be claiming that the pet was me from Spider-ham's universe. Every time they said something to me, I'd be like, "wait a minute! You taking me or the dog!?"😂
I would be honored to meet a pet with my name
It's kind of sad to think how much this happens to people
7:26 the way you said that cracked me up and idk y.
First story was genius.
Second story. I think OP faked being sick before it ACTUALLY Happened! I would rather not actually BE sick yet get my point across. Food poisoning is very painful with your body extruding from both ends. It’s understandable Why she went to this extreme. Now that he has experienced a form of food poisoning, he understands but it may be too little too late.
Story 2, they can’t fire you for being sick lmao sue them
Story #2: Manipulative af but sometimes you have to be, then again I am a narcissist/sociopath.
I don't know which voice this is but this is my favorite one. And the advice and comments that he gives are spot-on. Please just use this voice and not the other nasally voices that seem to just be "toxic".
Upgrading ALL the company's tech to the latest technology????? That's worth 400k alone, this dude was totally justified.
"bla BLA BLA talking the company..."
Me: the company? Like the one from lethal company
I think he was justified for not keeping their original promise in the 1st story. I was always raised by my dad do not make promises. I can't keep so I can't stand when someone doesn't keep their promises
Part of IT contracting, or I feel contracting in general is doing your work so well they can't or wouldn't want to replace you. There's nothing wrong with that as long as you don't do crazy sabatoge, like creating uncessary hurdles for the company and your potential replacement. All dude did was upgrade the company to the point where it was niche to only him and probably a few other qualified people. Job well done imo
For the last story, yeah op is the jerk. As a person working at a store and help with shipments, I don't even read who's the the item is for, my manager tells me that it's an order and I don't question on who it is. So yeah the son doesn't know who because he did ask or read it, just told it was an order. Also, I am sure the back room has cameras so the son could be worst trouble if he didn't call someone over to help. He could have lost his job and go into a depression of the lost and wouldn't forgive the op for doing something so disgraceful. It sickens me. Glad I don't have a mother like that. At least she asked to see if we had a certain item and warns me not to be reckless on getting it.
Yeah for the second story before Covid 19 really hit. My sister did ask (while we were at Red Robins) "What do you have right there?" I did order Teriyaki Chicken & I did wash my hands which I did use my fork, wooden skewer or she used her fork because I don't want cross contamination plus I did the safest thing ever
For the first story, good on him. IT gets fucked over so often by companies who build their entire structure around it and then try to screw over those working in it at every corner. They agreed to a contract and broke it, even going so far as to insult him with a 1% raise offer, I wouldn't have an issue anything he does at that point as long as he stuck within legal boundries, which he did.
Regarding the first story, i don't think he's a jerk. In all honesty, He signed up with them again, and each side agreed on 15% raise after 6 months. Hes honouring that and the company needs to honor that too.
My best friend had a dog named the same as me and I loved her so much. Probably a little more because we had the same name. She was the sweetest dog. And I miss her a lot.
Me wondering exactly how high the percentage that he lost at "orange" is. 😂😂😂
Had a roommate that did something similar to that first story. Although he didn't specially set up his job to fail. It's just that the company my roomie worked for outsourced all the IT department only to have a idiot middle manager push multiple bad updates to the the database over a week or so. My roomie had prior warning of his lay-off so he already had another job set up by the time he was officially let go and was already working for his new job when his former job called him up begging him to come back. He didn't totally fleece his former employers too bad, they did have to pay a premium for his services.
$200 dollars an hour? Yea, OP IS NOT A JERK!
Why is it ANYTIME a Woman has a Problem with a Guy, and the Woman goes to Reddit, the AUTOMATIC Solution is "BREAK UP WITH THAT LOSER! Who cares if his Dad almost Died, Who cares if you Faked an Illness, WHO CARES IF HE'S CHANGED HIS WAYS NOW, BREAK UP! *BREAK UP WITH THAT LOSER!* " It's fucking Nuts.
Why do you think any of this happened? That's all his own fault for being a dumbass and refusing to put effort into being clean around his family.
The first story, he is certainly not the jerk. I was in a position, doing the job of two managers and was promised a raise and they never followed through. It was wrong. He deserved what was promised to him, at the least. The second story, I don’t understand how he could be a food handler and not know how dangerous it is. Thank goodness she didn’t go to that dinner, or she could of ended up just as I’ll as everyone else that got sick. There is nothing wrong with Brad’s name. I had two dogs that had human names, Jake and Callie. Nothing wrong with it. The sister and her boyfriend need to get over it.
The girlfriend in the second story actually knows how to cook Carnitas
Second story the crazy part is if she didn’t pretend to be sick she would be really sick
Yeah that first story is awful. Written consent of the raise but management tries to backpedal. Op is not the jerk. I'm pretty sure they could have taken legal action and did worse to the company than they did in the story. Like honestly, you can't make a deal, with proof of said deal, then back out
That 1% raise is as useless as supercell nerfing buster's damage by %1 (from brawl stars) LIKE HOW IS GOING FROM 1400 TO 1380 AN USEFUL NERF?
fifth story: so did the op find her boyfriends phone or was she on tinder two?
i mean , for the contamination thing, its fine to use the same knife in cooking , assuming your cooking whatever your cutting.
pork, chicken + unions and radishes are fine, so long your cooking everything.
With a 40 hour work week, there are 2080 hours in the year. Multiply that by the rate per hour and you can get the gross pay with one step.
Most food borne illnesses take a few days to show up as symptoms. In general it's not what you had the night before that makes you sick but more likely something you had days before that.
Story 1: They didn't honor their agreement and for screwed for it. Yeah, he definitely set then up for it, but they made a contract with him knowing they would never honor it and got screwed in the end. Avoidable on their part of they had actually honored it.
He's absolutely right I mean there's nothing to do fool around with it is potentially dangerous on the face of it it's like yelling fire when there's no fire and then just saying it's just a joke that's nothing to play around with
For the first story, abut harsh, BUT, YOUR SO SMART. Work smarter, not harder
Me hearing the dog's name story:
Well. Some chicks are like that
Last story: I have a friend who works at Target and he explained why the son was upset. Apparently, when doing online orders they have to confirm they have the correct item and finding cloths can be a pain in the ass.
Yeah, I’m gonna say pretending to be sick so that he doesn’t actually make her sick with the potential for hospitalization or death means she is not the a-hole
First Story: I think it was a neutral point on the whole thing. What the poster did could be considered an underhanded move, but it was done after new management tried to screw him over by backing out on the original agreement on his raise. In my opinion, this is just karma. Everything the poster did was legal as far as I could tell but management’s side I think violated some form of rules considering how HR reacted when he told them about his situation to finally get that meeting. Dude’s in the clear.
7:26 "CARNITAS!!!"
Story 3 - OP likes his pants. Their comfy and easy to wear!
Oh my gosh he really put a cutting board away that he had chopped raw chicken on without washing it that's crazy and you need to show him some material or something like find one of his favorite cooks and show what did they say about it or go to a cooking class together that would do it
Big companies get no problem of lie and f you over way you should have loyalt to a companies will do that to people
9:12 you ever gunna tell him u lied
The last story not only is she the jerk she could have easily gotten her son fired from the job. When I was at Walmart I hated people who didn’t belong in the back room being back there for so many reasons
Gotta teach them you can’t go back on your word.
Not the jerk for story 1
Story 1: TEACH ME YOUR WAYS
Does the mom not realize that people do curbside shopping and it probably was for an order and she had no business being in the back room to start with
story 1 he isnt a jerk in fact he actualy helped them if you look at the long term
You damage someone else's car and you put the blame on someone else how is that their fault he's just trying to get out of a financial situation where he has to take responsibility for his own actions
1sr person u did a good job bro screw them
The first guy gains more in 2 hours (400$) than a monthly minimum salary in my country (256$)
Obviously, OP's boyfriend got his dirty kitchen skills from his mother
The men from the first story is a salesforce developer
💀 these make me embarrassed for the entitled people
like
“GIRLIE I LOVE yOu sOoOoOO MuCh and I’m deFInitELy not going out with another woman 😳”
10 seconds later making out with a girl in the Wendy’s parking lot how romantic 💀
No you're not a jerk he ignored your your concerns about hygiene by using a cutting board and then conveniently forgetting to to wash it thoroughly and then he gets sick your family gets sick and so tell me how is it her fault
😂😂😂😂 third story is funny
The socially acceptable thing was to say that she was sick. It also safed her from getting really sick. Ofc she could have told her bf that she wont attend cuz his food is basically poison but lets be honest that wouldnt have gone well. Just sad that she couldnt protect him from getting sick and fired but he seems to be somewhat of an idiot. Either way she isnt the jerk. And argueably he came around so i wouldnt make him out to be a jerk either. The mother is tho
I know what a favorite pants is like. I found pants at a thrift store, nicest pants I've ever had. No idea what brand it is.
Story 1: Not a jerk. He did his job too good. It's not his fault no one else can make the program that improved companies productivity and increased earnings. At the end of the day he only did his job and quit when a better job hit...
