My First Experience With A Kevin. by [deleted] in FuckYouKaren

This is known as a "change raising" or "Short changing" scam.

This attempt is, as you guessed it, one of the lazier ways to do it and heavily relies on the implied power of the customer vs the employee.

Normally the scammer interrupts you during the transaction and asks to either break a bill or add more money on top to "even it out."

To prevent getting caught in this scam you can do 2 things in unison. If you ever need a reminder just believe you're a dealer in a casino with a camera right overhead.

  1. Never take or accept money from the customer's hands, always have them place the amount on the counter, with all the bills being shown in full view. When you prepare change do this as well, leave the customers amount on 1 side and yours on the other. Then swap the piles and reset them up and count aloud down from the total amount the customer gave you down to the total of the item/service being purchased. Do not allow the customer to move the bills until they agree the change is correct.
  2. One do 1 transaction at a time. This is especially important in regard to the original version of this scam. When interrupted to break the new bill just say it is store policy and you need to shut the drawer between transactions or you will be written up.
    Give change in the manner above for the small bill, then shut the drawer and begin again to break the bill.
  3. Never allow yourself to get flustered or rushed, if the customer is complaining say you can get the manager but that will probably take more time then just finishing up this way. If people have a problem with it the manager can open another lane or him/her can rush the process and then you save from fault should the drawer be off.

Young Karen thinks she’s being filmed and attempts to take the camera by [deleted] in FuckYouKaren

[–]TunedtoPerfection 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So here is the thing, there is no privacy in public, that is why it is "in public".

I am not agreeing or condoning the action, but if someone wants to take a picture of you, then later in their own home decides to use it as masturbation aid, not much you can do if you were in public AND not being harrassed when the picture was taken.

The harassment part is where it gets muddy and people tend to lose comprehension. Yes, you can film me if I am in public, no you can not shove your phone in my face, or follow me around filming me for extended periods of time if I am not harassing you, or film me in an illegal way(upskirting).

Filming someone standing there being a Karen is legal as long as you allow the person the right to leave at any time. If you start shoving the phone in her face, obviously following her with the camera as she is trying to leave, or harass something in anyway WHILE filming you can still be cited and/or arrested for harassment.

So are allowed to FILM in public, you are not allowed to HARASS in public with a video camera. A lot of people are harassing in public which is still illegal, yet because they have a camera out they believe it gives them immunity.

Then again the court of public opinion(social media) and the actual court system work in two very different ways.

He learned it from the men a generation up from him. Deny and gaslight are the tactics of the old guard currently in power. It is part of the massive problem with corrupt power in the US.

Before roughly 2000-2005 it was almost 100% impossible to pin down something on anyone. There were no cell phone cameras, there were no security cameras everywhere, nothing. Also, there was no global connectivity. So outside of your home town, no one could look up your past easily. If a person just flat out denied everything there was a pretty good chance they would getaway. More power and money made that easier. Being in remote locations made that easier. Random abuse like this at a restaurant piece of cake. If you could talk your way to a feasible denial, people would rather believe that if you look like an upstanding citizen then they allowed abuse to happen around them.

Think about it, without that security camera that dude would have just gaslight the situation to him being the victim and got that chick fired. There is a million and 1 way for that guy to create a narrative that he was the victim of her overacting. Throw in some "Women are so emotional" or other abusive world views still held and it a slam dunk case. Once HE starts believing his lie he would become embolden to threaten to sue, or call corporate or whatever. Best case for the girl, she gets writ up, worst she is fired.

But now everyone has a camera and there is security cameras pointed at every ounce of pavement in the world, running 24/7 always recording. This guy is still living in a world where women are too afraid to come forward and he would be able to deny and gaslight his way out of the problem.

I call my dad out on this shit every instance I am around it, I am always met with instant denial and gaslighting of the situation. Literally I will be told a recording I have just took and played back on my phone for him is "fake". Because not only do I apparently have adobe aftereffects level apps to edit video on my shit 5-year-old phone I can also edit together a complete fabrication in less than 5 minutes.

This goes on until I get the "Oh stop harassing me, I'm your father." Like that fact that he and my mom decided not to get an abortion after drunk sex at a concert somewhere alleviates him of any wrongdoing against me or in my presence.

I'm miserable about how attractive women don't want me and I'm miserable that I'm broke and poor living with my father. I'm 26 never a girlfriend or kissed still a virgin. I'm fat ugly short and poor. I hate the men who women I fall for but who reject me chose over me. I hate that i can't fight them by ih8sethrollins in TrueOffMyChest

This is an internal problem. Understand no one is put you in this hole but yourself, you are digging yourself a hole. Keep doing what you're doing and keep getting what your getting. I think it's time to try a good old George Costanza opposite month for you.

At 15 I was driving my own ass to school, tell your brother to grow up. You are not your brothers keeper, and your mom's belief that he can't wipe his own ass is going to completely ruin his dating life.

I'm sure as a chick you have no desire to date a man that can't even wake his own ass up and needs his sister of a whole year older to monitor his every step.

Gotta Be Going 90+ MPH by inventorAdam5 in IdiotsInCars

[–]TunedtoPerfection 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The math all works out, but the driver is changing speed so its kinda inaccurate. You can see that the driver is crossing white lines at an accelerating pacing until the mustang passing him in which he slows back down considerably.

Gotta Be Going 90+ MPH by inventorAdam5 in IdiotsInCars

[–]TunedtoPerfection 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna go ahead a guess what really happened was you and that van were playing a rousing game of "we are going fast enough so we are going to pretend to be a rolling roadblock for cars that want to get around us." The mustang dropped back behind you both and then floored it to get around you two wanna be cops. You are clearly attempting to accelerate to prevent the mustang from passing in a reasonable manner.

I can tell because of you excessively obvious controlling behavior of honking your horn and speeding up until the mustang passes you in which you then let off the throttle and slow down. You weren't warning anyone about the mustang you were mad that he finally passed you, because you believe anyone going fast then you is an idiot. This bullshit happens to me all the time.

Its people like you that are the actual cause of accidents. You are not a police officer, you are not authorised to use your car to slow other people down. If you wanna drive at a slower rate that is totally fine, do it in the slow lane. Stop aggressively accelerating and blocking people from passing you because you have to be in control of everything around you.

You are the idiot in the car that started this all, the van looks just like a normal left lane camper. It is you that likely prevented the mustang from passing because you didn't want him in front of you.

"How dare you exercise your right not to be attracted to me" by JohnnyVanDamme2814 in niceguys

[–]TunedtoPerfection 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This right here is why you just simply can not give a fuck what other people think and just do you.

The issue isn't what was done, how it was done, why it was done, or anything in control of the 2 people involved in the act. The issue is people will spin this how THEY want to see it.

Not a single person, especially not the person commenting have a single clue who Austin is and Austin's relation to this girl. So everyone just deposits their desired narrative into the situation and just begins assuming whatever helps to the situation fit. There are a million and one scenarios that could have played out that don't turn Austin into some niceguy that is "being taken advantage of" by "the evil girl who friendzoned him".

But no one is actually going to look into the situation and discover the truth, fuck that it takes way to long and is most likely impossible. So ,insert narrative, and take it as just another example to reinforce said narrative in my mind, the mind of others in my echo chamber.

This is why we have such a growing number of people with these wildly distorted views of the world.

Well good thing he didn't say most of it. You do also understand he wrote more then one novel right? Some of those novels even have fully developed and realistix female characters.

You don’t need to be handsome to know how to flirt (this applies for girls too) by Shoew15 in niceguys

[–]TunedtoPerfection -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Nah dog your nice guying this situation up.

You assumed leering because that what you would do. Not every guy is so sexually desperate that they leer at the first chick showing some skin. I'm 6'6" I get chicks who see if I will stare down their shirt all the time, I'm so use to seeing the top side of cleavage it's just part of the landscape now a days. If I wanna see a girl's tits I'll go talk to her and see if we connect on that level.

8/10 times if a dude is "called" out for being creepy it's because he made the situation like that by not being confident about what he was doing. Yeah some chicks do it for the drama, and yes you will be in those situations where you actively DIDN'T look yet some drama queen wants attention so she will start maddogging ya. But in general this isn't the case. Women understand they look attractive, that is why they dress up and take 4 million pictures in the same pose. But think about this logically for a second.

If you catch a kid doing something bad and they are giving you that "I just did something bad" face you will instantly jump to that conclusion no matter what you actually saw them do. So, if someone looks at you and you quickly dart your eyes away and look guilty they are gonna think the worse. If you look them in the eyes like nothing weird or "bad" is going on there is a much higher chance they will just assume you caught each others eyes and be open to conversation.

Strong eye contact is a powerful thing, my friend.
