 What's up guys takedown here. This is episode 7 of my story time videos. I hope you guys are enjoying them Share them with friends if you really enjoy them. I want this to be a successful story time series on my channel I'm glad I get the opportunity to do it and a lot of you guys are enjoying it And I'm getting a lot of comments on Facebook and Reddit whenever I share it The people are asking questions laughing and they're enjoying the series so this series It's 100% true every every story time I make some people are questioning whether or not it's true or one of these fake ones 100% true everything in these videos is true Because I wouldn't be able to make some of this stuff up and I can't go by script to remember stuff. It's just not me I can't script stuff and memorize stuff. So this is all memory. That's how fast I can put it out there But anyways, let's get right into it. I was threatened at work That's gonna be near the end of the video that I share that part because it's kind of a really small moments So some of the filler stuff that I'm gonna say is stuff that happened to me at work Near the time I started when most of it happened. So number one I was almost crushed at work Actually, this happened a few times different days, of course. This is probably the first I Would say the first week that I started I've been there five years now. I'm currently still there not enjoying it these days But it is what it is We do have sport racks, which you know on top of SUVs those big plastic Luggage holders it's a lot of people don't know what a sport rack is. So I thought I might as well explain it We have them on the high wall High up and whenever I started we had a lot more than we do now so we had pretty much the whole length of the high wall and Whenever I started they're awkward to get down So it took two people to get down two ladders and the owner at the time the first owner I got hired with He was the most helpful and he would be on the floor and helping So he was helping me take that down. He was on his ladder is on mine So we managed to get one down For a customer and solders to the customer So he was handling that I was closing the ladder. So I closed up his set it up on the wall closed up mine Whenever I went to move mine. I wasn't paying attention up top I was just making sure I wasn't hitting anything down below But then these ladders were tall probably the ten foot ones and I just hit Without knowing I hit one of the Sport racks and back then we didn't have them secure like we do now We just had a cheap thin little bungee cord They were hanging over the shelf quite a bit and when I just hit it not even hard It came down it crashed Like the whole thing like basically up on the wall and just straight down Nearly crushed me. It just came within inches of me like probably this far away is where it landed Smash right into the shelving took all the pegs off it Could have been a lot worse if it would have hit me. They're not heavy But I'm pretty sure it would have done some damage pretty sure I would have been injured from it Wouldn't have died or anything like that I wouldn't assume but all the weight is on the bottom of these things and reveal on the shelf That's where all the weight and the bolts in that are in the bag. So it's it's They're not a heavy thing. They're more of an awkward thing So I was almost crushed by that Another time I was almost crushed and we still have it there today. I don't know why what the hell is wrong with them But yeah, and that that kind of tells you of we've never sold one since I've been there Which is five years on the very top shelf of aisle six Right near the automotive shelf as you guys know I work automotive hence sport racks from a minute ago but there is for sport bikes which in my area nobody owns a sport bike, but they're the Holders for sport bikes so you can lift it up put the wheels on this These bracket things to do any work underneath it kind of waste of money in my opinion But they're extremely heavy and they have them on the very top shelf and one of my I would probably say the first month maybe two months. I had to get it down Or maybe I had to get the thing next to it down. I can't remember But whenever I did I went up the ladder to try to move it It was heavy. I didn't have a hold of it. It came crashing down I Literally almost took me off that ladder and it would have thrown me and I would have been injured because we did have at the time Small aisles right here really short. So I would have landed right on them and would have been hurtful So there's that There's also been a few other times that I've been I've had angry customers. I had a customer recently This is a recent story that Came in complained we had right ice rain recently and complained that his wipers were covered in ice and He wanted me to warranty them and he got started to explain that his truck is the same way He brought his car. We have to warranty them. I said, well if it's just ice, I sorry, but I can't warranty ice Without being an ass I was basically getting to the point of you should be cleaning your ice off your wipers before you go Driving of course, it's not gonna clean your windshield other than candy by the way So I went out and checked him I came back and I said it's just ice I said there's nothing wrong with your wipers So he was arguing wanted to talk to the owner I went up to the owner explained the situation the owner said the same thing It's just ice. We're not warranting them. So that's two people that told him He had to get a manager over there to tell him So the owner got a hold of a manager told the manager to go over and tell him told him the same thing The guy still waited for the store manager Now the owners over the store manager, but the store manager come back from lunch store manager came back from lunch And wouldn't you know it? He warrantied the wipers That just had ice on them. So my manager one of the managers warrantied wipers Didn't want to wipers. How did I say it? He warrantied ice Nothing wrong with the wipers, but he warrantied the ice that was on them. That was causing the problem And he gave him cheaper ones. So there's that But now to get into it when I was actually threatened at work. I Think it was the first week. Maybe two weeks. No I'm sorry. I Started in the summer. So this would have been September because September over the summer I wasn't hired through the company was hired outside the company the summer September is whenever I was hired on through Canadian Tire so That's really after that is really whenever I started work nights by myself. So this is one of the first nights. I worked by myself Customer didn't know he was drunk at the time then again. I've never really been around drunk people So I couldn't tell the difference. I thought he was just an asshole He came over he was up by the counter. I was coming out from out back He reached underneath the counter where the wash fluid is grabbed a wash fluid slammed it on the counter So I came up said can I help you? Yeah, I'd like to buy this and he's all pissed off I'm like, okay So I pointed up front. I said, yeah, you just have to go and take it right up front Well, he didn't like that yelling and screaming. No your I'm paying for it here. I said, well, I'm sorry. Unfortunately. I don't have the cash here Yes, you do he started yelling and screaming pointing at all of our computers now autumn now we have five computers on Our our counter That's because we're looking up parts for customers and stuff like that and booking appointments So we have all these computers and he was point out and saying you have all these caches. You're putting me through here I'm not arguing. You're just gonna do it and at the time number one It's after five o'clock. So at five o'clock. This was probably closest seven Five o'clock our cash down an automotive gets closed if at the time was only used for work orders for the shop And the second thing is I wasn't sure how to use cash didn't know cash at the time had no interest in cash Unfortunately, I do now not have interest in it, but I'm forced to use it So he's yelling and screaming Demanding I put him through the cash. I told him number one our cash is closed number two I don't know how to do cash. So it's that time of the day that you have to go up front He was all pissed off threatening me saying that he's gonna get me fired He knows where I live. He knows me. I didn't know a damn thing. What he's going on about I'm just sitting there. I wasn't like pissed. I wasn't crying. I wasn't anything I'm just sitting there and kind of in shock like okay good for you No, he's kept saying he knows the manager. He's gonna get me fired What I did what I didn't know is he went up front and when he paid for it He was threatening the girls up front the girl up front notified one of the managers, which isn't there anymore She came and asked me and she's like is there anything like that again? Just call us over right away and me not knowing it's nothing like that has ever happened before Has done it now I deal with angry customers in a different way if the customers angry and I get to tell them bad news I'm extremely excited. I'm one of the first ones that wants to share with them the bad news Especially if they've been an ass whole customer now if they've been a really nice customer and I have to show Them bad news. I feel really bad But I also like if there's a good customer and sharing great news with them I'm really excited about that, but I'm more excited if there's a pissed-off customer and I have to share bad news with them now That's just how it is working retail five years. You really you get excited over these little things and it's one of them So I'm gonna leave this video here.
