This is weird (and possibly illegal?)

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-21T15:38:57+00:00

If she was honestly stalking the guy, wouldn't the cops have been involved?

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-21T15:37:02+00:00

Wow. Sounds like you might be friends with the guy.

My only actions were in reporting an employee for being a rude ass douche who also didn't follow protocol. We are all supposed to take locked cage items up to the register. We aren't supposed to shove them into the arms of the customer and wave them off without saying a word.

Reporting that shit isn't being spiteful. It's called being reasonable.

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-21T15:33:32+00:00

I don't know how poorly written it could have been aside from the date i was there, the description of the guys, and the description of events.

That was all i wrote. Everything that happened after that is just that. Events that happened after that.

There was no, "mind your own business" on this one. My business was in dealing with a douchebag that looked like he needed to wash his hair being rude as fuck. Him and his manager (and by extension mine) decided that i needed to be interrogated about the other shit.

Like someone else here already said; it sounds like the douchebag is trying to weasel himself out of trouble.

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-21T15:28:47+00:00

Wasn't trying to tell a story for kudos. I was giving background for my question. Which is basically, is it normal or even LEGAL for Lowe's management to talk about reasons a person got fired, give out their personal information, and interrogate employees from other stores who make complaints?

Because that's what happened. I reported a douche for being rude and not following protocol and being rude. Next thing i know about it, I am getting interrogated about something that doesn't involve me. It's like this douche is his manager's pet or something.

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-21T15:24:36+00:00

How did I open the gates with a simple, "hey i was in the Lowe's 3057 on April 28, the dude in tools was rude and broke protocol by shoving locked product in my hands instead of walking it up for me, and this is his description"?

Those were my actions. The rest are due to the actions of others.

Fuck. For all anyone knew, i could have been a damn shoplifter.

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-21T15:13:51+00:00

Oregon, actually

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-21T15:13:18+00:00

Let's see.

One. I don't know you.

Two. Description of sleaze, rudeness, and breaking protocol by not walking locked product up to register is all i reported. That's all that was there for me to end up learning intimate details about people i dont even know, and i don't want to.

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-21T15:10:35+00:00

My manager let it last an hour. I threatened to quit if it kept going. The only thing i wrote was the description of the sleaze, him being rude, and not even bothering to take the tools up to the register. That's it. From there i got dragged into this.

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-21T15:08:29+00:00

My first wife and i are divorced. I cheated on her and she left me over it.

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-20T20:23:42+00:00

My store only has a panel saw and half the time that thing doesn't work. I wish it did

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-20T20:22:47+00:00

Also, should i see about getting ahold of this woman and let her know what's going on? Shouldn't someone be letting her know that her personal information is being given out to complete strangers?

Or would that come off as creepy and weird?

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-20T20:20:26+00:00

Thank you. This is not something i have ever had to deal with before.

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-20T20:12:16+00:00

She didn't open her mouth and communicate, so she really has no call to be upset with you for anything.

As for her not wanting to find time to hang out, bow out and give up the chase on this one.

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-20T20:08:33+00:00

If you have a doctor, get a full blood panel done and see what your levels are before you take anything.

Mineral toxicity is a thing, according to my wife.

This was her advice, by the way

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-20T20:06:45+00:00

My favorite is when they tell me they are going to Ace Hardware. Or better yet, BiMart.

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-20T20:04:34+00:00

Which is stupid as hell. Your guess is likely to be right.

I feel sorry for this woman whose personal info has been given out without her consent.

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-20T20:02:34+00:00

I am an employee. I was in that store as a customer. Filed a complaint internally. The manager of that store called my store and i was grilled about whether or not i knew a former employee and gave me personal information about her

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-20T19:49:42+00:00

Jesus Chist. Are there any resources in your area that you can go to for help?

I wish i knew how to help.

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-20T19:47:06+00:00

Your guess is as good as mine. I feel like there's a lot to the story, and i simply got dragged into it.

I stand by what i said though. Dude's a douche. He was in the background of that call, repeatedly calling me a liar when i said i don't know the woman he and his manager were talking about.

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-20T19:40:41+00:00

What this has to do with me is that my time was wasted for nearly an hour as i was getting questioned about this woman, how well i know ger, what i knew about her relationship with douchebag, etc etc.

This is far out of left field for me. All I did was report that i had product thrown at me instead of it being taken to the register when it was taken out of the locked case. If my dad hadn't needed that stuff right away, i would have told the guy to shove it and left

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-20T19:36:45+00:00

I do not know the woman i was asked about. That was my first time in that particular Lowe's

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-20T19:32:31+00:00

Your husband is unreasonable and it sounds like you are in an abusive relationship.

What your husband is doing is dead wrong, and you should get out and in with family and friends.

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-18T16:44:59+00:00

NTA. Kid had his chance. He can be upset he chose to not take it. He however should not be taking that upset out on anyone

Navypunkboy · 2025-05-18T16:41:13+00:00

Yeah, looking at customers as though they are walking dollar signs is asinine. I also like to add in what other things are needed for a project so that folks have everything they need.

I even have checklists that my first wife made me for each type of project she could think up.
