Reveal some company secrets, Now that you don’t work there anymore

[Cladyclad]

It’s no secret but working a McDonald’s u supposed to season the beef on the grill but a lot of times we didn’t. Pretty much all the time we didn’t. We knew no one would care and just scarf it down

I'll add on to this.

Alot of repair shops will inflate the customers estimates and skim the rest by not ordering new parts or repairing items on the insurance estimate that were supposed to be replaced.. so they can pocket the rest.

I've had people pull up many times wanting to fight the shop because they caught them red handed fixing items that's supposed to be replaced.

All the fukking time. And if a customer doesn't know what to look for they're noon the wiser until somebody else at another shop tells them they can't work on something because of the shytty repair done before.

Not really a "company secret" but a trade one. In the HVAC business, let's say you call because your A/C isn't working. They come out to diagnose and its only a $60 thermostat issue. They'll tell you it's a compressor problem and charge you $700 instead. Especially if you talk like you don't know shyt about the problem
Always get 2 opinions.

Feel sorry for you if you have family members taking Medicare/Medicaid funded paratransit rides to their appointments. Drivers be drunk and high like a muthafukka. Snortin lines in the parking lot, smoking big blunts, drinking tall cans between pickups out of sight of the camera. All kinds of shyt. If the country knew who was picking up grandma and grandma there just might be a riot.

Stories please? Cocaine and drunk ones preferred

I'm going through that right now with a customer. This Benz certified shop is rejecting the repair because there is way too much poor work done on the back of the car


Alot of shops will slap on a bumper and don't even do proper rear body panel work , or the radiator support is fukked up or riveted back together.

I've seen one case, they didn't even put the impact bar back in the shyt

Add on guys.

that walmart one isnt particularly accurate...at least not at any of the stores I've worked at.

 

[Karume]

$29.99 Monster cable costs the store 25 cents.

Ask a person that works at a box store that has access to the inventory computer to look for the "at cost" amount for items that you want.

Sometimes companies allow employees to buy items (1 or 2 a day or week) at cost as an incentive.

of course a distinction should be made between corporate and the local store.

be that as it may, accessories in general have a much higher markup than the primary item

I know some of y'all worked at Taco Bell.

Spill the beans!!!

How do they make that shyt!!


Aint no way that shyt is fresh!!!


I had a burrito the other day that fukked my digestive system up!!

You knew it would do that before though.
You just know.
I fell for it about 20 or so times but eventually I wizened up, now when I see a taco bell i just smile and say Never Again

Not sure if it works, apparently you can try it once a year. Just don't go overboard.

Anyone ever tried this?

 

[loyola llothta]

A lot of laundromats have a folktale (not sure whatelse to call it) about a worker somewhere out there getting beat with a bag of quarters.
It's not a guarantee, but if you come in looking pissed and swinging the bag around, they might offer free service.

Seen it way too many times. Then they wanna get mad at you and the shop that's rejecting the work instead of going after the shop that fukked it up in the first place.

I've had nearly every late fee or over draft charge reversed. They always something like "I see this is your first time, so we'll go ahead and drop it for you".

Yeah , they have courtesy reversals. I was told it's once a year as well.

 

[Mr Hate Coffee]

used to work in a few retail stores in college.

"nah, fukk that guy" was the bottom line of most decision making. If you were a good guy "yeah, we can do it [lower the price, find the item, waive fees, etc]."

if not? "nah, fukk that guy."


One day i'll share a fair amount of finance banking stuff I can't now but ask the right question and you might get the right answer
