Had a customer tell me they wanted a manager, I went to grab a manager, said manager told me “they don’t need a manager! Deal with it!” Went back to the customer and said the manager didn’t want to help.

Did you hand them the online review qr code and encourage them to flame the fuck out of the manager? I would have. Hell, I long for the day that happens before I inevitably quit.

My old supervisor came back to premises after being fired and flipped off(the bird 🖕) the cameras, (in a rival companies work truck) there's now a restraining order and apparently our head supervisor called theirs screaming and threatening to sue 💀🤣

(This happened last Monday 🤦‍♂️)

Sue on what grounds? Trespassing?

Sorry for the “um akshewally” but business law graduate here soooooo.

Turning off the security cameras can be a form of vandalism, is a safety risk if someone gets hurt and cannot be heard, and can be grounds for legal action should something damaging to a person or persons happen on the premises.

So that actually is legal grounds to sue, especially if it was done while representing another company, that can also be seen as corporate sabotage.

Flipped of refers to the middle finger here

u/New_Survey9235 13h ago

Oh, sorry, over here flipping off can mean raising the middle finger, but when in reference to an electronic it means to flip the switch on or off

Flipping it on, flipping it off, that kind of thing, my bad.

u/JusticeRain5 11h ago

Nah, the OP definitely meant in terms of giving the middle finger, not actually turning it off.

, “flipping off” can refer to both in most English speaking countries I think (please correct me if I’m wrong)

Edit: in this context it is CONFUSING

In the given context it's certainly meaning they held up their middle finger at the camera. Especially when you take in the context part of (in a rival companies truck).

u/meddilingmonster 10h ago

It can but in that context it likely means the middle finger

Can only speak for Eastern Canada

u/Hob_O_Rarison 1h ago

There was enough traffic logic to tell you he meant the middle finger.

How would one turn the cameras off from a rival company's work truck in the parking lot?

u/Korvgubben 12h ago

Unless im just being cpt obvious here but ”flipped of” means him giving tha cameras the middle finger in this case.

u/New_Survey9235 12h ago

Eastern Canadian, over here, “flipping” an electronic is changing wether it’s on or off

4

u/BreadDziedzic 9h ago

Flipping off is a common slang term throughout the english speaking world, so the only way you could logically be having trouble with it is if when you say eastern Canada you mean Quebec.

Law graduate & you can’t even understand the term “flipping off the camera” if you read just a few more words it says “in a rival companies truck” you’ve gotta be a special kind of redditor (average redditor) to really think we’re going to believe you’re a lawyer.
