Anyway, ive been dying since sunday *glares at the internet for breaking* to tell you all this. Its kinda long, but entertaining I think. If you dont read the whole chunk of this, please read the last paragraph.


Sunday I decided to tell my assistant manager that I gave the ipod back to the owner. After a while of explaining why i gave it back (mostly to try to get a reaction out of her since she wasnt saying anything) she responded.

She "apoligized" for treating me the way she did because she had noooo idea that she was being rude. She just thought out of nowhere I became angry at her. She told me that I was being snappy and angry, which if you didnt notice, is the exact opposite of what was happening. It was almost as if she was telling my side of the story.

So I told her that I didnt know where she was coming from. Out of nowhere she had become really negative and blah blah blah.

Then she came out of nowhere and said it wasnt my decision to give the ipod back to the guy. She said something like "Well i found it first, so I get to pick what to do with it."

I responded with "Yea... well Posession is 9/10ths of the Law" and she shut up and just stopped talking. A law major couldnt freaking figure out how to counter that. sheesh.






Fast forward about an hour:
Her boyfriend appears and wants to talk to me. Mind you, this kid is huge compared to me, so hes there for intimidation.

"Yo whyd you give away her ipod?" said the boyfriend.
"I didnt." I replied.
"Then where is it?" he asked inquisitivley!
I looked him in the eye and calmly said "With the owner"
Fire lit in his eyes! I had angered the Beast! "Yo man you just said you didnt give it away"

Then he said something about me hating her and how i was lying that i wasnt angry while talking to him (i wasnt)
He also asked where the owner of the ipod lived, like he expected me to go get it back.

And then this little Gem appeared:
"Yo wheres your iPod at?"
"Home... why?"
"Go get it"
"Why?!"
"Cuz i want it."
"hell no, my ipods worth a lot more than that one was."
"So pay me for it"
"Hell no! I just paid my rent!"

So thats where he storms off.








>> FAST FORWARD AGAIN >>

It is 15 minutes before my shift is over. 2, maybe 3 hours after everything else happened.

The boyfriends friend walks up and says "So, who wants beef?"
In my head im just saying to myself "Oh.. why oh why cant you people let this drop..."
So he starts babbling. litterally. He was stuttering and eventually said "Im gonna make this my problem. Its not my problem, but its mine now"
Basically he said the same thing as the rest of them did.

His main point was that she found it first. So she had 9/10ths of the possesion, and I only had 10%... (exact words) I apparently was not in the position to decide what to do with the ipod according to him.

He asked me what I would do if I found a Presidential rolex on the ground. I asked if the guy had his number etched into the back, so he said "yea, the phone numbers there"
I cleverly responded "Id give it back."
"Why?!?" he asked with a shocked look on his face.
"Because I dont wear watches"
That ticked him off, which was pretty much my goal

In the end, Im 100% sure he threatened me.
Again, he doesnt make much sense when he talks so this isnt a direct quote:
"You better pay up, or your gonna pay.. with your ***"
Everyone who was around stared at him. My head manager turns and goes "Was that a threat?"
He jumped when he realized it was, "No! Nono no no noo... We're cool, we're friends!" and tried to shake my hand.






Long story short. The people who found the iPod felt I was wrong to return it to the owner, so they're mad at me. One of them even threatened me to try to get me to give the ipod back. So ive been kinda sitting around trying to decide what to do. I know their threats were hollow, but I still felt threatened. I stood my ground, but thats BS i shouldnt have to take crap for doing the right thing. So Tomorrow I'm going to talk to the Manager of the club (the boss of everyone) and tell him exactly what happened. Hopefully this whole debacle will be done soon.

They're idiots. Call the police and ask them who was in the right. Then laugh at them. They're obviously not worth being friends with anyway.

I vaguely recall this story.

he's gonna get you

Just tazer his sorry tail. I've decided you can't reason with idiots, you've got to use an alternative form of "persuasion."

Talk to the superbossmanagerman. Don't make a bigger deal out of it than what's already happened, but inform him of the situation, so if it gets out of hand he'll know what's going on.

You definitely did the right thing, by both giving the iPod back and standing your ground.

Call the police, that simple. Hell, the big kid was afraid of the manager, let alone the cops.

you should have given him the deadfish handshake when he tried to act as your friend, it would have freaked him out

you should kick their asses.

You should tell the assistant manager that she's intimidating you and creating an unsafe work environment and that if it continues you'll shoot her in the face.

As an aside, some ******* broke into my car and stole my iPod and a dvd I was about to return to Blockbuster. So... if anyone finds an iPod that has any of my songs on it... it's probably mine and you should return it to me.

MB SMASH

BANSTICK THEIR ARSES!

Rawr

Violence solves all problems.

embee, your life is stranger than mine. And mine has bloody people.

dude, you work at a club? sheeeit thats sweet.

You should go over her head.

If she isn't fired.

Sue.

?????

Profit!

Worked, he forgot to put the fact that he did it on his last day of work.

I'm about to leave to go talk to the manager of the club!
yay!

You know.

None of this would have happened if you hadn't put ska on that ipod when she asked for MUSIC.

Yeah, true. Everyone knows ska is too godly for a lowlife like her.

At least he didn't put The Cure on it. What a waste of an iPod that'd be. You'd have to, like, burn it, then.

If you put the Cure on there, it'd spontaneously combust.

From putting music on it too awesome to be on an ipod.

Wow, you both used the same comeback.

MB, you're totally in the right. I'm just upset now because yesterday I left my digital camera behind.

More like spontaneous combustion from the black hole of suck it'd create within the iPod's inner workings.

That assistant manager sounds like a comlete retard, along with her boyfriend. You did the right thing by giving the ipod back. How old are these people btw?

They're 20, 21. Somewhere around that.



Anyway, I went in today to talk to the Assistant Manager of the Club (only because the head was not in today) I told him exactly what I told you guys, and he basically sat there and giggled about how silly what they were saying was.


So yea, basically he asked if i still felt threatened and stuff. He's going to talk to the head manager and then to the people about what they had said now. So hopefully thats the end of that.
