Self important people throwing their weight around

lintdrummer

Any stories about truly awful and obnoxious people who think they're high and mighty?

I've taken a part time delivery job with a local small business recently because my own profession has been severely impacted by covid and will take some time to recover.

Today I was out on my rounds when one of my customers called me. Nice guy, explained that his house faces a one way street which has been narrowed by a new bicycle lane and he has no driveway. So he says I'm going to have to block the road to make the delivery. His delivery was small and it would take no time to unload so I figured there wouldn't be any major disruption caused.

So I pull up outside his house and within a second the car behind me beeps. I get out to see the driver has rolled his window down and the customer is telling him we'll be very quick. I open the back of the van and hear the customer tell the man "it's Sunday, relax". I have the delivery unloaded and passed to the customer within 30 seconds and am closing the van when the driver of the car gets out, phone in hand and takes pictures, possibly of me but definitely of the van.

He then says "I work in Garda HQ in the phoenix park" and goes back to his car. I got back in the van and drove off after wishing him a great day.

It's worth noting that all of this happened so quickly that the traffic lights ahead were red the entire time and I even had to stop at them when I got to them. So this man wasn't even delayed but he felt the need to threaten us, take photographs and generally be aggressive and throw his weight around about his position. All over being delayed getting to a red light.

I told the boss about the incident just in case anything comes of it and his reaction was "what an arsehole".

Anyway I'm sure karma will get back to this bag of misery.

Yeah, I suppose you never really know what other people are going through in life at that moment that makes them see red and act obnoxiously to people.

That's what I like to tell myself when interacting with people like that, but I know the truth is that some people are just a-holes lol

I misjudged coming out onto a T junction the other day. Thought I had more of an opening than I did and ended up causing the other car with the right of way to have to slow down to let me cross in front of them. He could have sped up or blew me out of it, but he recognised I wasn't being an arsehole and just got it wrong and let me through. I thought to myself, if this had been Dublin or Cork and not rural Kilkenny, it would have been a big hoo hah.

So moral of the story, move out of Dublin!

Arsehole driver behaviour is definitely not exclusive to Dublin. It happens in every corner of the country.

You generally get more arsehole driving outside of Dublin, as people don't really care about rules of the road, and drive/park what ever way suits them best.

A guy rang me before in a call centre job (a now extinct mobile network). His daughters phone had been blocked for non payment and he called me every name under the sun with a smirk in his voice, “you’ll fix this now you ****ing phone monkey or so help me god”. I said you’d better hope god is listening to you because I’ll be at your house in 5 minutes and you can repeat all of that to my fist (I could see his address literally 5 minutes from where I worked). He rang back to my manager in a panic, ask did he need gardai at house, did I leave building yet etc - a real hard arse :rolleyes: Got fired but sucker punched them with the “I quit” and threw my badge at the HR manager, still my favorite customer service experience ever lol

I dunno. I've worked in quite a few call centres over the years, and I've witnessed things that you would think would be made up. I've personally witnessed one lad blow his lid and absolute blow the customer off the phone with a tirade of abuse. Granted, the customer started it, but even I thought he went a bit far at times. Threw the headset off, looked up, saw his manager darting towards him, shouted "I quit" and walked out. I've seen many similar but not as bad examples.

Call centres are horrible places for the most part, possibly some of the most stressful jobs I've had were in call centres.

When I was a Garda, we had a Sergeant who thought he was the dogs danglies. Always telling people what to do even if they were already told to do something else, always swanning around the place like he was the most important person in the country. He was always missing when things kicked off though. Anyway, I was given a permanent position which was indoors, a: because cushy, b: because no one else really wanted it (comms related). Different sergeant over me. I came into work one day, and within minutes the last sergeant said I was to go on the beat. I said no. He repeated himself, I said no. He said why, I said because you wouldn't ask any of the other permanent indoor members to go on the beat (keeping in mind if I was out on the beat, someone had to be in instead of me). I ended up point blank refusing until he said he was directing me to go on the beat. I said grand, I'll just run it by my sergeant and inspector. In the end, I had to apologise for not following orders, but he was told I was permanent indoors and he couldn't put me out. We didn't get on after that...

Contact gsoc and make a complaint if you have his reg, say you were harrased and made to feel threatened as he got out of his vehicle and used aggressive body language and tone.

i had a kinda similar incident in a car park about a year ago. When in came out of a shop my car was just touching the bumper of the car in front.
Now i am not saying i did not do this when parking as i drove in but i think its unlikely. He made a bit of a scene and said i damaged his 12 year old car and wanted my insurance details.
I refused but i did give my name and he said who he was, i took pics of both cars just touching. i also took a pic of him and he kinda posed for it, i found out after who the person was and wonder if it was a try-on for a claim as if i had given insurance details i would have being confirming there was an incident.
I never heard anything from it, it would have been easy get my address with car reg.
Anyone who will not give a delivery person a break is a prrck...

Ah bans can be fun, it's always important to remember, boards is only an internets forum, having or not having access isn't all that critical in life. try argue as politely as you can, but do persist, you have the right as anyone else to express your opinions, and mods can be wrong to, they are human after all

If someone quitting a call center is movie worthy then ima hold back. Some of the things I’ve said and seen/heard others say/do must be worth something. Gonna work on a script and see if I can get a series made.

usually down to a combination of arrogance and a staggering lack of self awareness in my experience

i worked for a beast of a human years ago , she used to accuse me of arrogance every day of the week despite being incredibly arrogant herself , she made me repeat back to her every instruction she gave me and i also had to wait ten seconds to answer as answering immedietely was " arrogant " in her view

these people are usually projecting

I know hindsight is 20 : 20 but you should have taken a photo of his car and reported him to the gards, even if he is a garda it doesn't excuse him from being a knob.

I reckon it's stress due to lockdown and some people not being able to deal with it in a emotionally mature way.

People that have never had a hard day in their lives suddenly have had their regular routine and lives turned upside down or put on hold which then creates a kind of anxiety and the above aggressive behaviors.

Tell him to eff himself.

I remember a Garda acting the big hard man with me years ago.

He stopped my car thinking it was an import without being declared to Revenue- he has all set to impound it. I had all my paperwork in order and he was pissed off but off he went and passed a few sarky comments. Weeks later I get penalty notices for apparently speeding and dangerous overtaking- totally made up.

I just said to myself "**** you". I let the notices lapse and appeared in the District Court to defend myself. Told the Court I never received anything (I can make **** up too if you want to play that game).

Judge just looks as Mr Big Bad Hardman Garda for a response- nothing. I mean he just sat there like a little boy and just mumbled about having nothing to offer. Thrown out.

great story about the garda there
of course, the guy in the OP wasn't a guard anyway:rolleyes:

ILoveYourVibes

Today ....NON story DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVE A LIFE

I was walking into a shop ...i see this woman walking ahead ..elderly very frail green jacket ...but she goes to the side for a while. Or behind me because when i get to the door she is no longer there

I see no one in front of me except another elderly woman. I see her go through the doors ahead of me.

The hand sanitizer wasn't working ... ..so i take out a wipe out of my pocket and do my hands ..

I walk in ...only ONE person comes in behind me ..elderly green jacket lady ...

She comes up like right to my face ..and says 'YOU SKIPPED THE CUE'

She looks so frail ..i just say ..ok thanks for telling me.

I walk outside again to join this ' que'...and as i do i pass the lady that walked in ..in front of the exit ..which is the other side and you have to walk all the way around the shop to get to it ..so she was obv WELL ahead ..she is not moving too spritely etc.

I ask two ladies outside ..'Is this the que?' They say no ....there is LITERALLY no one else there. I was expecting this major long que due to covid.

I SUDDENLY realize the shop is practically empty ..i was right there WAS no que. Its not one of these covid ques ..

I go back in ..i DONT do my hands this time as i have just done them moments before.

I see the lady again ...and i tell her there WAS no que ....she says there was you skipped ahead of me ...

Im like erm no ...she said there was others in this que ..but she was literally the only one who came in after me. And she didnt come in DIRECTLY after me she was like a minute behind. So like she wasn't waiting behind me.

She then gets really aggressive saying i didn't sanitize my hands ....i'm like yes i did ..she said then something really creepy ...' I was watching you'...why were you watching me??

I tell her ...you have an attitude issue. (which i feel bad about now ...i mean she was just elderly ..people at that age get grumpy).

There is literally 5 people in the store ...so there couldn't have been a que ..

So i was like ...DID i skip a que ??

I think in her mind she is a que ...wherever she goes ..lol.

The weird thing is she didn't say ...anything about my hands ...the first time ..so maybe she saw me coming in the second time and thought i hadn't.

I kind of feel bad now ..i just should have shrugged at her and not engaged.

There was literally no one outside but one older lady who went in ..in front of me i went in after i didnt skip her ..and two other ladies chatting ...who weren't going in. And then her ...who took like a while to come in after me ...so she wasn't directly behind. I don't know where she was.

She basically breaks social distancing rules to come up and tell me i skipped a que (not true) then when i tell her there was no que ..she says you didn't sanitize your hands (again not true).

So there that is my rather non story. I hope she is ok. I wish her love and light
