r/TalesFromRetail - She Thought our STORE was HOME

what's up guys welcome to daily dose of Reddit this is your host Zach in today's subredditizer Tales From retail this first story is called I'm just going to take a nap my old work was in an area with a lot of vagrants and drug addicts I'm not sure if this woman was on something or just spent too much time in the heat but here goes the story here's the cast for our story there's a woman my boss and me we are in a retail shop that sells arcades we have behind the showroom a large section of games in line to be refurbished or stripped down for parts my boss is in the restroom and I hear the doorbell I'm just a tech at this time so I'm already uneasy then I realized it's one of the homeless people at wander our parking lot is everything okay the woman mumbles very fast and incoherent in response and then in my head I'm thinking oh flip what do I do and I say out loud are you okay do you need something I'm fine I'm fine I'm fine I'm I'm fine I'm fine I'm fine I'm fine the woman replied repeating very fast between six and ten times before saying I'm just going to go home and take a nap oh she's leaving thank God I thanked myself and then I say out loud okay you be safe okay I will this is when she heads straight for the wall of unbuilt games and starts climbing up them knocking over a whole pile of parts that was in front of them you can't go up there it's fine I'm fine this is my house I sleep here all the time uh no it's not this is a business you don't live here my boss heard the crash of parts I guess and finally comes out is everything okay what fell I come here now I need help what the hell he doesn't even stop for a second and grabs the woman by her ankle and pulls her off the machine and starts pushing her to the door you need to get out of my store right now or I will call the cops she went back to fast incoherent mumbling boss now had to push her all the way out the door before taking a fist to the face he gave one good shove out the door and pulled a pistol out of his pocket he doesn't really point it at anyone he's just making sure she sees it and yells I will use this if I have to that's when a homeless man popped out of nowhere and guided the woman off my boss put his gun away and locked the door well that's enough excitement for one day I'm going home if you choose to stay just keep the door locked if we get any customers just tell them that we had an emergency in the comeback later very interesting story with a very good ending I'm very happy with how everything was handled however mumbling homeless women climbing on Arcade cabinets would probably be very terrifying alright guys this next story is quite a bit of a doozy but if you stick with it it is worth it and the name of it is how I destroyed my ex and employer and took over his company during my university studies I got into Forex Trading ETFs brokerage and Arbitrage and Etc I made some nice money out of it but I never really put so much effort into it it brought enough for a comfortable life but as it was not related to what I studied biochemistry and I really wanted to concentrate on my future on what I actually studied for I considered it to be a hobby during the original Stella rise of Bitcoin I made some serious money at one time I had nearly a million euros in my bank account with that kind of money where I am from there is really nothing you cannot buy once my university studies were over I returned to my home country once there I started the master's degree in a field related to biochemistry but I also started looking for a job in the finance sector to make money at the risk of sounding arrogant I am a tremendously good financier despite the lack of any formal training except from what I taught myself from online lectures in days upon days of reading Finance related textbooks from reputable sources after some job hunting I landed a job in a company founded and run by old boss old boss was a strong iron-fisted man he would involve himself in micromanagement of every employee and I was no exception during the job interview he personally led the interview and asked me things among the lines of you are obviously not talented or intelligent why should we hire you and also making multiple unveiled remarks about my race where I'm from there are two major races in the country and I belong to the minority although I have never identified myself to anyone as such by some miracle I managed to preserve my cool and present him with documentation relating to my activities in the previous year with bank statements providing how much money I made Etc that shuts them up I ended up getting hired with a respectable wage and flexible hours most of which can be worked at home I am in heaven I was assigned to bitcoin and other their cryptocurrencies trading working a company-owned account the account through which I was to trade was owned by the company and I was provided daily with a two-factor authentication code to be able to log in and do my trades I would also receive premiums on what I earned the company so I transferred just over 40 Bitcoins from my personal wallet to the company accounts wallet to play big and earn nice premiums it worked like a charm the first month my premiums were more than my wage the second month they were nearly four times my wage I was making very nice money then came what was probably the worst day of my life just over five months after I started the job I get called into HR apparently I was not making them as much money as I promised I made no promises by the way and I was not making as much as other Bitcoin Traders I made nearly as much as the rest of the department a whole eight people combined well there's really nothing to be done done at this point really I'm fired period if I go to my computer to transfer my 40 Bitcoins from the company account to my personal wallet I am locked out someone changed the password I let my supervisor know his response is a derisive so I go higher I receive no response apparently the order for my firing came from old boss himself he responded to my queries with eat a cake you'll feel better about it three weeks later I am informed that everything in the company account wallet belongs to the company and I was so informed in the contract of the employment I go through the contract there is no such Clause so I take them to court the first time the court is convened old boss is personally there the first hour or so is just me explaining to the judge what Bitcoin is and how it works he is sympathetic to my cause but as there is no law in my country even coming close to regulating cryptocurrencies they are not considered either currency or commodity there is nothing that can be done the look on Old boss's face that smug look that feces consuming grin of self-contentment it's murderously infuriating I am robbed of 40 Bitcoins undiluted soul-wrenching hatred towards old boss Birds a Revenge plan in me I was robbed of 40 Bitcoins you'll lose everything old boss but first I need to be in a position to hurt him I decide to found a company working in the same sector as old boss's company but before I found it I need reliable people around me I start hunting for fellas my search for months is fruitless everyone in the cryptocurrency market in my country knows who old boss is and will not go against the man everyone except one I was about to give up when I hear one of the three Vice CEOs of old boss's company nice guy has resigned in protest bear in mind nice guy was a very nice guy he would always personally ask me if I needed anything and if I had suggestions on how my department should run apparently he did that with everyone I ask around why he resigned and surprise surprise he resigned in protest of how old boss's treatment of their employees and their customers was highly unethical apparently long before I got in the picture old boss's company had made a habit of screwing both their employees and customers and a nice guy was very antagonistic to this approach from what a close friend of nice guys said to me nice guy was particularly outraged over my firing as he considered a minority working and succeeding at Old boss's company would be a good supporter of racial integration and an important marketing opportunity my contacted nice guy I explained to him barring no secret what my plan was suffice it to say that he was apprehensive at first he probably thought I was crazy every question he asked I replied with an answer over two months I finally wore him down to acceptance he became my greatest Ally advisor and one of my closest friends hence we founded my company with an initial capital of 100 000 Euros nice guy and I worked very hard to succeed we made a goal of doubling the company's worth every year we expanded into capital investment in retail Banking and Forex Trading within three years my company's net worth was well over 9 million euros at which point old boss took serious notice he invites us over to his company's HQ and proposes to buy us out for 5.9 million euros and assures us that we would retain our positions in my company would simply become a subsidiary of his working again as an employee for old boss don't think so I get up to leave go to the door and turn around and say I ate that particular cake before didn't agree with me I turn around and leave we continue to be why wildly successful for the next two years our working ethic especially in retail banking was solve the problem without hurting anyone it worked before we knew we started taking customers away from old boss's company this coupled with old boss's lavish Lifestyle the man owned two Lamborghinis who even needs two put his company in a tight spot with the higher Administration going south after Nice Guy's departure in the lower floors having virtually no drive to work or earn the company any serious income the company was beginning to stagnate at this point in late September 2017 old boss's company peaked at a net worth of 96.2 million euros despite the ownership of over 100 million euros of assets they were lacking liquidy which is immediately available money such as cash or money in bank accounts instead old boss had a lot of land expensive but doesn't really bring in a lot of money worst investment form ever as the Central Bank of my country tree is not very resilient in terms of financial power either there is only a limited amount of liquidy they can provide for old boss's company which incurs debts to the central bank Realty industry has essentially been dead in my country for some time now so there is no chance of selling that land at a profit and only a meager chance of selling it at a loss old boss's company sells what they can sell at a loss for liquid funds and for more liquidy needs they increasingly borrow money from the Central Bank it is still not enough an old boss does not sacrifice his luxurious and extravagant lifestyle to save money they finally resort to issuing bonds to bring in money the way bonds work in my country is that whosoever holds the bond with the maturation date can demand payment of the bond bonds that have passed their maturation date can be demanded payment at any time I hire people to buy old bosses bonds as they come out I ended up buying 116 of the 120 bonds issued by old boss's company Each Bond was is valued at one hundred thousand Euros for a total of 12 million euros of which 11.6 million euros is held by me the maturation date is one year and the interest over that time period is 16.5 percent the money brought in by the bonds kept old boss's company afloat for a while but without hot money to keep the lights on they soon began to struggle once again they tried to issue even more bonds but the central bank did not allow them as they already had 12 million euros worth of outstanding bonds without factoring in interest instead they did an IPO an initial public offering and decided to sell 40 of the company in stock at point one percent a share I bought some from the old boss directly but most from third persons 36.4 percent of those shares at that point old boss's company was still valued over 90 million Euros so the purchase of stock nearly broke me I owned 36.4 percent of old boss's company and held including the interest nearly 18 million euros of his debt in bonds due in most part tonight's guy's undying Direction I navigate this burden without too much difficulty but the main test is still to come the shares I hold give me access to Old boss's company's Financial records and there are lots of irregularities it looks like tax evasion I notify the Central Bank the Central Bank finally takes a stand and bears down hard on Old boss's company what they find upon inspection is astounding embezzlement laundering fraudulence tax fraud and the list goes on the Fallout is massive all companies in the sector including us are inspected down to the last penny we have done our work well we pass with flying colors old boss gets fined 3.6 million euros including back taxes he cannot pay he is broke so is the company a virtual monopoly in the sector goes belly up they do not hold any liquid assets Realty is still stagnating customers are in a bank run and money is not flowing in they have only one option they sell 10 percent more of the old boss's company at one percent a share at half price some people buy I track them down and buy them all at regular price they made a lot of money I now own 46.4 percent of old boss's company the final sale puts old boss's company in profit they massively downsize within a week the payroll is reduced by half they sell their now extraneous offices company cars are sold away as they struggle to Bear the storm I begin Gathering clouds for my the day for my victory has come at long last I have my CFO an unknown person to them call Old boss's company to set up a meeting in my name an anonymous shareholder to discuss business strategies on the day of the meeting I walk into old bosses company 10 minutes early they still do not know that I practically own them I walk right into the office block he's talking to his officers in the corridor right outside the meeting room he sees me looks at me like I'm some insect and goes I have a meeting in 10 minutes with some very important people whatever it is leave it with my secretary I know let's talk then I open the glass door to the meeting room and walk in and sit down for a second he looks confused then comprehension Dawns on his face along with it Terror undiluted pure soul-wrenching Terror of what is about to happen he knows now he understands he knows I hold the shares he knows I hold the bonds he understands I am about to take everything away from him he only manages to mutter one word oh the meeting is short I return the bonds to be rendered null and void for another 12 percent of old boss's company I walk away with 58 of the company since I am now the majority shareholder I dissolved the board of directors on the spot and a point nice guy to convene a replacement the termination letter to old boss is written the same day we are saddened to inform you that you have been relieved of your duty in Old boss's company his personal debts to the company are astronomical over the next month we wrestle away most of his remaining shares and distribute them among the employees they laid off in their downsizing along with six months of wages old boss ends up with 0.3 percent of the company's shares since taking over old boss's company we reversed its fortunes it's only making baby steps towards recovery but we are making progress using my Powers over the company I move towards an integration of operations with my own company smoothing out operations and disposing of unnecessary expenditures old boss boycotts all board of directors meetings which he has the right to serve as a shareholder his shares being point three percent next to insignificant it barely makes any difference my revenge is now complete I not only Avenged myself but also the hundreds of other people he victimized old boss went to prison two months ago for a variety of convictions totaling 16.5 years he now atones for his sins did I or did I not tell you that this was going to be a doozy alright this is probably the best nuclear Revenge there is because not only did our redditor hero whatever you want to call him completely demolish the old boss but he also got revenge on behalf of the other victims this is thorough and amazing Revenge this guy is a genius don't forget to like subscribe and hit that Bell to never miss an episode [Music]
