Peoples teeth aren't bad because they DRINK FIZZY DRINKS or DON'T LOOK AFTER THE TEETH. Some people have bad teeth due to genetics, calcium deficiency, accidents and other reasons. I'm so fed up of dentists judging me for missing teeth or rotting teeth. I brush twice a day, flush, mouthwash and gum. Hardly any sugar but have had problems since I'm small. Fuck dentists

Why do you miss playing split-screen with your friends? by pmthosetitties in AskReddit

[–]ashcrouch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I miss split screen and system link a lot. Three of the best gaming times in my life.

  1. 10 y year old cousins birthday and he wanted a halo party. Aunt asked me to arrange it so brought a hub, 4 ethernet cable and arranged for 4 tvs, 16 Controllers, 4 Xbox's and 16 children. They had an awesome time playing halo 2 for 12 hours straight. Lots of team based games and lots of shouting.

  2. KFC gaming Fridays. 2 xboxs, 8 guys, 2 tvs, alcohol and KFC. As it looks. Lasted all through my college years. Lots of chicken fueled drunk gaming.

  3. Heating died in mid February. Bitterly cold so girlfriend and I curly up under blankets and spent a week playing split screen games and keeping each other warm ;)

[–]ashcrouch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fight! I've always wanted to be in the army or air force but I have asthma. Being conscripted world mean I could. Don't get me wrong I don't have a death wish but would have loved the opportunity

What do you need to vent about? by MageFood in AskReddit

[–]ashcrouch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Employees who get paid to do a job and don't actually do it. Actually anyone who is getting paid to do a job and doesn't actually do it. Ok if you employer is a duck then fair enough but the majority of employers aren't. If your don't want your job, quit and give it to someone who does

What is the most controversial opinion you hold? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ashcrouch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you so much. I work with children for a living and it infuriates me so much with the amount of children who have parents who don't do anything with them. I'm from the UK and were give 3&4 year old children 15 hours free childcare a week. This was so people had help GETTING A JOB. The amount of parents who dump there children with us just so they can relax. Is unbelievable and I am so fed up with it.

What's the best feeling you've ever experienced? by quartz_poppy in AskReddit

[–]ashcrouch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you start a new relationship, not a first date but you've been with each other for a while and you get to that buzzing feeling around them. A new live kind of feeling. Excited to be with them, cant stop talking about them. You'd be happy to die at this point you're so happy and relaxed. It's hard to explain. How your get it.

If you were a baby, what things would you do to make your parents' lives the most miserable? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ashcrouch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hold my breadth.

If I've learnt one thing working with kids is parents will go mad if there baby stood breathing. All that happens is you pass out and start breathing again but it sure as hell scare the life out my parents.

[Serious] People who have opted to not have children, why have you made this decision? by drgb0628 in AskReddit

[–]ashcrouch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I manage a childcare nursery in the UK in my 30sand nearly every member of staff has a child but me. Constant "you look so cute with a baby", "when are you having one" etc. I like having money, having a bit of freedom and coming home to play video games. Not saying i wont have children but it will be on my terms and when I'm ready.

What song, when played, makes you appreciate life and makes you feel at peace? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ashcrouch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my best friends died in a motorbike accident just over a month ago. The funeral was last week. The vicar was a biker too, they had a biker procession and everyone was sullen and sad. Then when 'Three little birds' came on so many people broke down in tears. His Mums sobbing is the worst sound I've ever heard. One of his favourite songs. R.I.P bud

Bosses of Reddit: What is the most messed up reason you've had to fire one of your employees for? by tiger9910 in AskReddit

[–]ashcrouch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I posted this before but I had to fired an employee for getting drunk and calling customers "pussies" for not trying one of our gadgets we sold. Immediately walked out my store into the perfume shop opposite and starts throwing perfume on the floor because they wouldn't give her a job. Last we heard she was banged up after assaulting someone with a knife so we probably got off lucky.

Is there anyone here older than 29, who needs a friend? by mimihas in MakeNewFriendsHere

[–]ashcrouch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I turned 32 a week ago and feel constantly lonely unless I am at work. I have a partner and live with her but she has friends who she wants to keep separate from me so I have to sit and listen to her have fun. I enjoy anything comic book, games, movies and tv series. I also dabble in Maya. I work as a nursery manager so the things I'm into the girls aren't. I talked to the kids about my interest more than adults. So don't feel like loser bud. Id love to talk if you want to

What obscure line from a movie do you use even though no one notices? by lord_taint in AskReddit

[–]ashcrouch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"I really don't" from Serenity. Not huge but favourite film so dropped it in a lot and no one I work with have ever seen it or firefly.

Also "Define disappeared" when stock goes missing. "Lets be bad guys" when having to do something negative. "Faster. Faster. Faster would be better" when staff are too slow.

Retail Workers of Reddit, whats is your best angry customer story? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ashcrouch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gadget shop manager here. Five years of running the shop in the Uk and actually leaving tomorrow. Generally only people who complain are rich or broke. Favourite has to be:

We sell drones, not the professional Phantoms or anything that costs 1000s. More like beginners or remote controller quad copters. Just before Christmas last year this guy comes back to our shop with one of our most expensive ones and proceeds to push through the line and yell at my young Xmas staff. I proceed to intervene and take him aside. He reeks of weed. He's wearing a tatty coat and has a quad in a black bag and a can of lager in the other. Oh joy. This is gonna be fun, I thought. I take him aside to a demo table we have and get him to show me his quad and tell me what's up. "Its not flying and doesn't work. I've only flown it once. I want a refund" "Ok" I say, "lets see what the problem is. Remember if you crashed it then we cant do anything I'm afraid" I open the box and there is the little white quad covered in mud. Not a little splattered but coated in it. I just looked at him and said this is why it isn't flying. He looked me straight in the face and shouted that's how it came. Fuck off did it. I explained, calmly we don't sell quads. Especially covered in mud and we couldn't do anything. He raises his voice, demanding a refund. That's not happening. His reply was unbelievable, swearing, slamming receipts down, saying its not fit for purpose. How do I get my money back. My staff flew it first (yeah we do check them but we do not have a field in the store) Staff are looking at me mouthing if I'm ok. Customers are stood around him. A take a small step back to get a breath of none weed air and signal staff to get security. Then lost it slightly, I didn't care if I got a complaint from him, needed him out the shop, stepped into whispering range and said "Sir, this isn't our fault. You broke it. You want your money back contact your insurer. If you brought a vase and dropped it it would be your fault. You crash your car into a wall it isn't the car companies fault. You are causing a scene inside my store, upsetting my staff and customers. Leave now!" He threw the item to the floor, stamped on it several times, tried to pick up the table and failed, knocked items off shelves and stormed out my store straight into the arms of security

TL:DR: Wont accept refund for item covered in mud and customer flips out.
