NotAlwaysRight Stories

I... I just have no words.

The Epic of the Impossible Store

[catcul]

This is the kind of thing that got Wells Fargo in trouble. The coach tried to commit a highly illegal and unethical act and almost taught it to a new worker.
The worst part is that the coach seems to have no idea what he did wrong.

The Epic of the Impossible Store

Every time I thought it couldn't possibly get worse, it did. Oh, boy, did it. Then it doubled down.

This is an incredibly long read, however you won't get bored as the op has a good writing style and everything included is relevant.

Hey, I made it onto NAR!

This happened to me a few months ago. Boy, those commenters sure are salty about the little joke I threw in at the end...

[Arcus]

No offense, Arcus, but it sounds like your SIL is a complete ID Tentee.

On offense here. I agree that she has her moments when doing what is smart is just a bit more than she is able to do. She lives in her own little world and refuses to believe the truth if it's not what she wants. I wouldn't be surprised if she turns up in a NotAlwaysRight or an r/entitledparents story.


Oh and a bit off topic, if you want some more fun stories to read look at r/TalesFromRetail and r/IDontworkherelady

That reminded me of a police video where the driver he pulled ove had his license expire 33 years prior because the driver went legally blind. To give you perspective, the policeman hadn't been alive for that long.

It's scary that we're sharing the road with these people.

ONLY twice? Her brother may be physically blind, but she's worse!

[Arcus]

My sister-in-laws little brother has that kind of blindness. For some reason he too decided that riding a motorcycle was a good idea and was giving rides up a canyon to my nieces. My brother and sister-in-law got in a huge fight over it because my brother refused to allow his kids to ride with a blind man on a motorcycle in place where there are steep drop offs and sharp corners. My sister-in-law said he was being unreasonable and her brother had only crashed twice that canyon.

[catcul]

This is a pet peeve of mine. You shouldn't be operating a motorcycle if you're legally blind.

I used to read stories from that site at work, but since I only have access to Internet Explorer at work I can't view the page now, it's all wonked up. Any ideas if this will be fixed at some point?

Caring About Your Bull$#!T Meter

I gotta get me one of those.

[Mental_Mouse]

This one is almost horrific.

It would have been horrific if not for the store staff standing their ground. In addition to the immediate sickness and death, it would have represented a major attack on the credibility of, and faith in, public aid to the poor.

I've heard of a case where a major shelter for tigers (ex-zoo etc) got handed a "contribution" of a few pallets of chickens... which turned out to have similarly been sitting in the hot sun for several hours. I don't recall if any of the tigers actually died, but they did get very sick indeed, and yes, criminal charges were in the offing.

This one is almost horrific.

Customer attempts to invoke Customer Standard Time. It's not very successful.

"Um, lemme check if we have any in the back ..."

Silence! I keel you!
