His mom called the restaurant. Her son just got fired for no-showing a second time, and she wanted the owner to know that wasn’t the right way to handle it. Her idea: keep him on, don’t pay him, and that’ll teach him a lesson. The owner told her she’s... show more

@Texas_jeep__guy No I’m not calling my kids boss. I’d be pissed at my kid for not going to work.

@Texas_jeep__guy Same here. You blow off work, I might even drag my kid in and explain to the boss what he thought was more important than showing up to work.

@CoopandKCmom Not to mention that it would be illegal to allow him to work without pay.

@CoopandKCmom Strong point

I agree with her. It’s not her job to raise the other ladies kid.

When your parent becomes an apologist for your bad character, they failed you.

Funmy thing about a job is, your employment depends on your ability to PERFORM THE JOB!!!

It’s funny how that works…

My kid wouldn’t do this shit so I don’t give a fuck. Clown parents raise clown kids. Lmfao.

You nailed it!

@NobodymrRobert Another interfering mother. Why not teach your punk kid to realize that it was ALLHIS FAULT that he got fired. Told my kid at 13 if she wanted a DL she had to pay for the ins and save her $$. She laid $475 on the table at 16. Been a hard worker ever since.

@NobodymrRobert Parents have bought into the “be a friend not a parent” mentality. That’s the problem. Now kids have no idea what constitutes punctuality, reliability, character in the workplace, or basic responsibilities.

@robertdunlap947 Why eat while she talks- I couldn’t finish watching

Yep Ive seen it myself Managers have to parent the young adult workers Its beyond teaching the job Its guidance on adulting 🙄

@eMTBrides I think…stop fuqing eating on camera. It’s not endearing and doesn’t connect you to the viewer.

A colleague had a parent of a mid-20's staffer of theirs call in after kiddo didn't receive performance review scores that she thought her child deserved. The parent wanted it reviewed & to have a sit down with all three of them, which was flat-out rejected. Absolutely surreal.

Not to mention that’s illegal you can’t have someone working for you for free. Next thing you know they’re gonna turn around and sue you because they are the type of people looking for a handout instead of having a good work ethic.

No. Mine is 15 and she knows already knows this would not happen. We've told her that while we love her unconditionally and that will never, ever change. The rest of the world does not and that will never, ever change. She has to earn respect and the like. Being responsible is one of those things you have to do as an adult (and teen). I could counseling her to go back to her boss and apologize and ask for another chance, but that'd be the only apologizing that would happen in this sort of scenario.

Wow, I had a friend that when his kids acted up, he handed them a shovel and told them to dig a hole in the backyard. They asked how deep and he said, he would tell them when it was done, LOL.

You can't make people work and not pay them. The list of laws that violates is pages and pages long. The mother is a lunatic.

She has successfully raised a loser. I was in management in food service for 35 years. The work ethic became nonexistent in the last 15. HR had their backs. Let them rack up the no-show no calls. Management would never let you schedule more hours than you needed as a cushion.

I think it's strange as hell that people video themselves eating 😳

And now we know where the kid got his sense of entitlement and lack of work ethic.

@CreasonJana Noooooooo! This is an epidemic in our country. Let them fall down as kids!!!!

Absolutely not. Same goes for school. Vice-principal calls the ball if my kid misbehaves/steps out of line. I had that conversation the very first time they called me over an issue. The helicopter parenting is destructive.

@mcucolo57 Hell no it’s called being an Adult

@RogerBernards My parents would have lost their minds at me being irresponsible & not showing up causing a company that relied on me to be short handed! Also screwing up my job references forever! Woohooo!

@Ersin0X Yeah she’s a dumb bitch. Way too much hand gesturing

🙄🙄🙄Unbelievable....

@PatriotParents1 No. Getting fired is the lesson. That they have to be responsible and take their job seriously.

Parents are so arrogant! The child is their ward . And telling a business what they should or should not do is some serious BS!

A no call and no show is called JOB Abandonment which is a term event! I had the same issue when a "mother" was reaching out about her daughter. I hired the daughter NOt the MOTHER!

@RogerBernards Why do people film themselves while EATING!!! So bizarre!

She's dumb. And I think it's illegal to "keep someone on" without paying them. Another parent defending a lazy ass kid.

Yes, this is why businesses would rather hire desperate migrants, and then those of us Americans who do show up for work, have our wages lowered due to the increased supply of cheap labor

I can take the person not showing up if they let me know, as long as it’s not persistent. No-showing without a call maybe gets one chance then they’re gone. It’s too disruptive to business…..

Notice, it’s always the moms calling these business owners.

@AshSavesUSA This is something my mother-in-law would do for my brother-in-law. Who's a fucking loser fucking can't stand that shit.

STOP FUCKING EATING DURING VIDEOS, YA CUNT!
