1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: I'm homeless because of what a customer did. What would 2 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:07,680 Speaker 1: a customer service representative have to do for you to 3 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:12,240 Speaker 1: want them to experience homelessness? But your answers in the comments. 4 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 1: So this happened a couple of years ago, pre pandemic. 5 00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:19,319 Speaker 1: I owned a comic book and game store in a 6 00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:23,240 Speaker 1: metropolitan area, and I've been there for several years. Sounds 7 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: like the beginning of a nerdy rom com. He's just 8 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: a boy who owns a comic book store. She never 9 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 1: went in because she's not a dorg like you. With 10 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: any place of business, you get your regulars. I had 11 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,600 Speaker 1: two employees that worked for me, one of which was 12 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:43,559 Speaker 1: a young lady that had worked with one of my 13 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: regular customers from the area. Now this regular customer, we'll 14 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 1: call him mister Mmmm, it's just mister m I see 15 00:00:53,360 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: what you did there. Mister typically came in on the 16 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: weekends when I wasn't there, but every once in a 17 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,680 Speaker 1: while he'd come in during the week and talk with 18 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 1: me about miniatures or comics or whatever tabletop game was 19 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: coming out. He didn't make an impression on me one 20 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: way or the other. I might as well have been 21 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 1: talking to one of my action figures. No, I would 22 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 1: rather talk to my action figures. I love that. I 23 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,559 Speaker 1: don't care about you. You bread with legs. Then one day, 24 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: one crazy day, he stopped coming in. My female employee, 25 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: we'll call her Miss F told me that mister M 26 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: was hurt really bad at work and he had asked 27 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: her to make his purchases while he was in the hospital, 28 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 1: and I didn't think much about it. Fast forward to 29 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: about six months later, mister M comes into the store 30 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: and he's in a wheelchair. His girlfriend is with him. 31 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: We'll call her a Miss G. Now full transparency, I 32 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: had a huge cross on Miss G. I would gush 33 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: like an idiot around her and spend way too much 34 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: time explaining some of inane thing she'd ask about, just 35 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 1: to be talking her up. She's probably one of the 36 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: most intelligent women I've ever met, Funny and beautiful. The 37 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: boot man is just like shamelessly rising up This dude's 38 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: wife and a regular customer too. Have you no loyalty 39 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: to the milk toast customers? Mister had to have noticed, 40 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: but he never said anything about it. And after he 41 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: was in a wheelchair, I spent a little more time 42 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: talking to him, which is good at least he wasn't like, yeah, 43 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: I'm only going to talk to the wife even more. 44 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: Oh sorry, buddy, conversation's happening up here. Can you hear 45 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: down there? Bro? He would be a monster, a monster 46 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: who does this to your regular customers. There's that bond. 47 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: It turns out he was a really cool guy, led 48 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: an amazing life and was well liked by other customers 49 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: that came into my store, which I had never noticed 50 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: because I was busy flirting with his wife. After his injury, 51 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,959 Speaker 1: I noticed him coming in more frequently since he wasn't 52 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: able to work. He was always with his girlfriend because 53 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 1: he could no longer drive himself, and we sort of 54 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: became friends. I went to visit him at his home 55 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: a couple of times. It was a modest place, but 56 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: you could tell everything in it was high quality. He 57 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: had a gaming room and a video game arcade and 58 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: part of the house. One day, while he was there, 59 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,839 Speaker 1: my employee, Miss F showed up at his house, came 60 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 1: in with her own key, and went into his room 61 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 1: and came out wearing different clothes. It threw me off, 62 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,959 Speaker 1: so I asked what the deal was and found out 63 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 1: that mister M was dating his girlfriend, Miss G, and 64 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: my employee at the same time, and they were open 65 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: to it. 66 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 2: Whoa dude, Damn, mister M really got that MMM. 67 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: I tentatively broached the subject with Miss G, and she 68 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: not only confirmed but even told me they were trying 69 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: to find a way to make it official between the 70 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: three of them, So they're trying to get do a 71 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: thrupple marriage. That's when the jealousy kicked in. Mister M 72 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: was a nice guy, and he wasn't ugly or anything, 73 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: but I just couldn't, for the life of me figure 74 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: out how this guy, even before he was in a wheelchair, 75 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: could land two of the most beautiful and intelligent women 76 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: I had ever met at the same time, and they 77 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: wanted to be sister wives with the guy. What's his secret? 78 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 1: What is it? Ask him? That's why I like the secret, dude. Yeah, yeah, 79 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: I kept it to myself. Of course, in life. Carried 80 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: on like this for about eighteen months. Then the f 81 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: up happened. I was having a pretty shitty week at 82 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: the store. One employee had quit without notice, and Miss 83 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 1: F had taken time off in advance to focus on school. 84 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 1: I had some temp help, but this guy was an 85 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: idiot and could do little more than bag comics and 86 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,600 Speaker 1: put things on shelves. During this time, I had quite 87 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 1: a few customers try to haggle me down in price 88 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: on my merchandise. I don't know what was going on, 89 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,039 Speaker 1: but it seemed like every other customer wanted some kind 90 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: of discount. 91 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 2: Wait, is mister like, I've taken all your women, Now 92 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 2: I'm going to open a competitor and take all your 93 00:04:58,240 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 2: customers too. 94 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. He opened up competitor right across the street. No Oh. 95 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: Then Misterton came in. He had ordered some new stuff 96 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 1: for a game he played. While he was ordering them, 97 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: he and I were talking, and he asked, since I'm 98 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: buying so many of these, is there any chance I 99 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: could get a better price on them? Even mister asking 100 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 1: for the better price. Full disclosure, he had ordered ten 101 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: cases of stuff. I was charging him full retail plus 102 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 1: my markup, there was plenty of wiggle room for me 103 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 1: to give him a discount of some kind. I could 104 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,919 Speaker 1: have given him forty percent off and still walked away 105 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: with a profit. Also, it should be noted if he 106 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 1: hadn't been ordering these ten cases, I would never had 107 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: the stock in my store to begin with it was 108 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: basically free money. Instead of giving him a discount, I 109 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 1: yelled at him, in front of about half a dozen 110 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: other customers, You're a fucking asshole. What is it with 111 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: you people and your discounts? Do you think I'm running 112 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 1: a charity here, I have to make money to pay 113 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: the bills here. Oh pe ope, that seems like a 114 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: slight overreaction. Oh this is not good, buddy. My dad 115 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 1: actually does this at like most places he goes to, 116 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 1: he's just like, oh yeah, He'll get a coffee at 117 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 1: Earth Cafe, He's like, oh, like, can I use the discount? 118 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: And sometimes there's like oh yeah, no, sir, there's no 119 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,359 Speaker 1: discount for this coffee. Then like thirty percent of the 120 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 1: time like oh yeah, yeah, we could apply the fifteen 121 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: percent discount. I gotta do that. Yeah, dude, you can 122 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: just ask for things for cheaper. Your dad is just 123 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: he's just the man. He's just the man. And it 124 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 1: went on like this for about five minutes of him 125 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 1: just sitting there in his wheelchair looking up at me 126 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: while I piled on every complaint about shitty customers that 127 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,679 Speaker 1: came to mind. Five minutes. You're fumbling your own back. 128 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,279 Speaker 1: You're an asshole, dude. I don't know what came over me, 129 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: but I felt like I had some small measure of 130 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: power over this guy, and my jealousy wouldn't let me 131 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: abate my temper. After I took a breath and step back, 132 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: that's when I knew I fucked up. Everyone was staring 133 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: at me. One person had their phone out recording. Miss 134 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: F had walked in at some point and watched this 135 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: tyrate unfolding. Every time Miss G had tried to wheel 136 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: mister m away, he would just gently put his hand 137 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: on hers and stop her. He didn't say a word 138 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: the whole time I was losing my shit, not a 139 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: single word. Then, as if nothing had happened, he said, Okay, 140 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: my man, My bad for asking. I didn't know you 141 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: felt strongly about it. Here, let me pay for my 142 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: order and give me a call when the stuff comes in. 143 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 2: For the crowd, for the phone recording, for everything. That 144 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 2: was the worst thing he could have. 145 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: Said, right, Well, you mean miss Misterton. 146 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, Misterton, because now it's like, all right, you're 147 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 2: going to be a tirating dictator ahole about your stupid 148 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 2: little games. So now like that, if that phone recording 149 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 2: gets out around town. 150 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: Oh, he's wrecked. Game over. Literally, he's wrecked, dude. I 151 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: wonder if it's gone viral, Like I wonder if this 152 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: is like legit. Let's see, let's see. I was completely 153 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 1: flow mixed by his reaction, but I finished the transaction 154 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: and he paid my asking price and he left with 155 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: Miss G. Miss F followed him out as he was leaving, 156 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: and she came back in a few minutes to buy 157 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: a couple of things for herself. She acted like nothing happened, 158 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: and I tried to give her a feeble apology, and 159 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 1: she said, don't worry about it. He's not going to 160 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: so you shouldn't. That was the last time I saw 161 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: mister EMM in person. His order came in. About five 162 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: days later, Miss G and Miss F came in to 163 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: pick up his order, and about a week after that, 164 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: Miss F told me she wasn't coming back after her 165 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: scheduled time off. I noticed a couple of weeks later 166 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 1: that for the first time in years, I had a 167 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: downward trend in profit for the month. The following month 168 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: it was worse. Typically, I would order certain games or 169 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: comics because they were in high demand, and i'd have 170 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: to re order them twice a month. This time, the 171 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: stuff I had ordered at the beginning of the month 172 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: was still sitting on the shelf. Since I was spending 173 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 1: more time at the store, I started to notice that 174 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: some of my regulars were becoming irregulars, and I got 175 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: a chance to have my accountant walk me through the 176 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 1: books when I noticed it. Throughout the month, there would 177 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 1: be cash purchases ranging about three hundred to five hundred 178 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: dollars three times a week, usually on Tuesdays, which I 179 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: didn't work on, and on Saturdays and Sundays, which I 180 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 1: also didn't work on. So I reached out to Miss 181 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 1: f and asked her about it, since it looked like 182 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: these were usually times when she worked, I started asking 183 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: about the transactions and she quickly said, oh, yeah, that 184 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: was mister m He spent twelve hundred dollars to fifteen 185 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: hundred dollars a week there by himself, basically every week 186 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: since I started, which was like since you opened the store, right, whoa. 187 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: He's literally been like the most loyal customer ever fifteen 188 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: hundred dollars a week at this store, Unlike games and 189 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: comics and whoa, whoa and op just completely boofed it. 190 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I could literally feel my heart hit 191 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 1: my stomach on the way to my knees. I asked 192 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: miss f if she ever used her employee discount. She 193 00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,959 Speaker 1: promptly said no, but that the money she typically did 194 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 1: spend there, eighty to one hundred dollars a week, was 195 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: usually given to her by mister m But wait, it 196 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 1: gets worse. The third month after the incident, one of 197 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 1: my regulars comes in who hadn't been there for a while. 198 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,439 Speaker 1: I started talking with him and asks if he knows 199 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: where everyone had gone. My regular MTG group had dwindled 200 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 1: down to about four guys coming in, when up to 201 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: this point it had been a group of at least fifty. 202 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: My miniatures players hadn't been into play in almost five weeks, 203 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: and the poll boxes were about to be cleaned out 204 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: because more than two thirds of my regular comic subscribers 205 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: just stopped showing up. That's what he tells me. Yeah 206 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,719 Speaker 1: about that, You know, mister m Wright. Someone shared the 207 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 1: video of you berating him on our Facebook group, and 208 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: comic book store owner that is you, offered him a 209 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 1: fifteen percent discount for life since mister em started going there. 210 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: They set up miniature tables and started hosting card and 211 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: board games. Everyone is going there now. I barely paid 212 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: rent that month. The following month I didn't make rent, 213 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: and the month after that was official I had to 214 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: close up shop. Two months after that, I literally moved 215 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: back in with my parents. I went over the books 216 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: as far back as I could, and in the course 217 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 1: of my previous five years, it looked like mister M 218 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:12,719 Speaker 1: had spent over three hundred and twenty five thousand dollars 219 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: at my shop by himself. He never was flashy or 220 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: flaunted his wealth or anything, but he certainly spent more 221 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 1: than enough to cover my lease and utilities. I bring 222 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: all this up because yesterday I ran into mister M 223 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: at the local taco joints. He was walking around and 224 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 1: you'd never be able to tell he had been in 225 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: a wheelchair. Miss G was with him. It's Missus G. 226 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: Now she's still gorgeous and charming. They were out picking 227 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: up carvings for a Miss F maybe Missus F two, 228 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 1: since she was at home pregnant with her and mister 229 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 1: M's second child. We talked a bit about the pandemic, 230 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: how some local businesses were hit hard. I brought up 231 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,679 Speaker 1: that I heard that one of the local shops survived 232 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 1: the pandemic because they got bankrolled by a customer that 233 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: didn't want them to see them close due to the hardships. 234 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 1: Miss g gave a giggle at that, and mister M 235 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: out the side of his nose and winked at me 236 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: Santa Claus style. I died inside that I got to 237 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: watch them drive away in a brand new twenty twenty 238 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,079 Speaker 1: one Bronco first Edition while I'm still driving the car 239 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: I did last time I saw mister M. After they left, 240 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: I sat there in my car thinking about this colossal 241 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: f up. I swear I was cry eating my tacos. 242 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 1: And there is a thick, juicy update on this story. 243 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: But Uck, you could have apologized. You could have apologized. Oh. Also, ps, 244 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 1: I still have my parents because once my boss found 245 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: out that it was me that treated mister M so badly, 246 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: he fired me. Dog. Oh so this was after he 247 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 1: closed his own shop. He got a different job and 248 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 1: couldn't keep it because of how he treated mister M. Wow, 249 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 1: that's crazy. All right, let's get into this update. So 250 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: I've also learned that my parents are enablers at least 251 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: my mother is, and then I should consider distancing myself 252 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: from her as soon as possible, as she is partly 253 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: responsible for the abuse at the hands of her social group, 254 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 1: So we're working on that. My father did not throw 255 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 1: me out after seeing my last posts, but when he 256 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: reads this he probably will. Who knows. Lastly, the apology. 257 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: I reached out to missus F on the premise that 258 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 1: I wanted to congratulate her on her expectancy, and during 259 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: the course of that I explained I would like to 260 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: meet with the three of them in the near future 261 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: to apologize in person. She agreed and said that would 262 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: be nice, and told me that the three of them 263 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: would actually be not far from my house the next 264 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: day and if I wanted, we could beat for lunch. 265 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: I almost chickened out at the last minute, but I went. 266 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 1: They were together sitting outside when I arrived. Miss F 267 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 1: was defolittely pregnant and mister M was seated between the 268 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: two of them, so I sat opposite to him. What 269 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: a ge. It just sounds like he's like a great guy, 270 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: like he's rich, and he's also like really nice. Yeah, 271 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: I feel tempered. He just sounds like a good dude. 272 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: I led with, Look, I know it's been a long time, 273 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 1: but I feel like I really owe you apology for 274 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: the way I acted a few years back in my shop. 275 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 1: So I'm sorry for that. Also, I'm sorry it took 276 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: me this long to apologize. Mister em said, Oh, I 277 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: don't care about any of that. It was never a 278 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: big deal to me. Apology accepted that all this is worse. 279 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 1: He saw the confusion on my face when he said 280 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 1: he didn't care about any of that, and continued with 281 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 1: we moved two weeks after that. Didn't miss F tell 282 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: you when she gave you the notice? It was just 283 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: too far to drive all the time. Since you never 284 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 1: texted her called, we assumed you didn't really miss us. 285 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: I asked where they were living now generally, and sure enough, 286 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: the shop he started going to is about seven miles 287 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: closer to his house than mine would have been, and 288 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: in sety miles that's basically across the country. Plus I 289 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: just found out I was prego, so I decided I 290 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: needed to find work closer to home. Miss F chimed in, 291 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 1: so here, I am having twisted myself up about all 292 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 1: of this and everything, and to these people, it was 293 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: nothing of consequence, we finished up lunch together. They told 294 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: me about the things they're doing and seemed to be 295 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 1: doing really well with life. So good for them, I 296 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: somehow feel worse after the fact. Just goes to show, right, 297 00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 1: that's the update. Have fun ripping me apart. Oh that 298 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 1: update kind of sucks. Dude, that's rough. It just it 299 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: made him feel worse. It's like, ah shit, they didn't 300 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: even care to begin with. I'm a little bit. 301 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 2: My conspiracy theory on this story is that mister m 302 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 2: did really care, And you know, maybe that's a convenient 303 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 2: excuse and. 304 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: Is twisting the knife. He actually cared so much that 305 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: he moved play like a million d chess. I don't 306 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 1: think so. Man already has two wives. He doesn't need 307 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: anything else, that's. 308 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 2: True, he doesn't need to care about this freaking lizard 309 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 2: like you lot all this stuff. 310 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: This pond scum. But man, I mean, what would you 311 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: do if, like you are a regular customer at a 312 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 1: place and some dude chewed you out like this? Like 313 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 1: I would probably never go again, for sure, one hundred percent, 314 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: And I would be like screw you, Yeah, screw you? 315 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: Who are you? And also if I knew how much 316 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: I had been going there and how much I had 317 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: been paying. Oh man, I would be like, bro, do 318 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: you know who you're talking to? You don't. But with that, 319 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: I think this is a riggity rap.

It's 336 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 2: a big, old, big old freak out. 337 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: Moam man on a mission when a person is in 338 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 1: a state of both adrenaline focus to term nation performing 339 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: serious attacks consecutively, swift or simultaneously. 340 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 2: You know, you could say he's on a moem to 341 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 2: find his mother. That he is, but that is why 342 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 2: what you trying to do with mommy. 343 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: And mommy mommy? Okay, the story starts off very like intense. Oh, 344 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 1: I'm ready for it. She had me when she was 345 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: fourteen and I twenty four. Mail was given up for adoption. 346 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 1: My parents told me about her growing up. I still 347 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: have the letter she wrote me that she asked if 348 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,360 Speaker 1: they could give it to me if they wanted. Oh. 349 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: It's like sweet but heartbreaking. Yeah. At the same time, 350 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: it's crazy reading it sometimes and knowing it was a 351 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 1: literal child who wrote it, saying she's sorry she couldn't 352 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: be my mommy, but she hopes. I'm happy. She was 353 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 1: open to having contact, but we moved for my dad's 354 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: job when I was around eleven, and it seemed impossible 355 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: to find her. But luckily I did. Oh reconnect napp. 356 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 1: She's working at this small little restaurant and I keep going, 357 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: but she doesn't know it's me. We talk sometimes and 358 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 1: she seems like a nice lady. Sometimes when she says 359 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 1: something like do you want to refail, honey, or uses 360 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,640 Speaker 1: another term like that, I want to tell her you're 361 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: my mom, mommy, it's me Hello. I don't know why 362 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 1: it makes me so nervous. We talk sometimes and it 363 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: seems really genuine. If it's not super busy, she's more 364 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: open to talking about random stuff. And I literally drive 365 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,679 Speaker 1: two hours to come eat at this exact place just 366 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 1: to see her, And it's like she knows me already 367 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: because I'm there once or two times a week over 368 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,159 Speaker 1: the past three months. So she always says hi with 369 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: a big smile. But man, if she only knew, it's sad. 370 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:47,680 Speaker 1: But guess what what, there's a freaking update. Yo. Oh, 371 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 1: this is going to be good. This is going to 372 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 1: be good. Well readit. I did it. I told her ay, 373 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 1: and it was pretty heavy. My heart was even beating fast. 374 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,360 Speaker 1: I kept trying to think how to tell her. Many 375 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: of the comments on my last post were mentioning writing 376 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: her a letter just how she wrote a letter for me, 377 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: And originally that was a plan, but it felt like 378 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 1: I needed to say it out loud. I did wait 379 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: for her to be done with her shift, and that 380 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 1: was when they were closing the restaurant already and I 381 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,199 Speaker 1: waited in the parking lot. We said hi when she 382 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 1: saw me first, but I told her I was there 383 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 1: for something serious that she needed to know first. I 384 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: told her sorry for keeping it from her so long, 385 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,679 Speaker 1: and she didn't react until I actually pulled out her 386 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 1: letter and she started bawling from there, like screaming and 387 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: crying at the same time. And didn't even have to 388 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: finish the whole I'm your son's speech. She just saw 389 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 1: it and knew it was crazy. Next thing I know, 390 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 1: she's hugging me instantly, but then she kind of pulled 391 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: back and asked, is it okay if I hug you? 392 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: Of course it is, and we're just hugging and crying 393 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: in the parking lot. 394 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 2: I hate to ruin the moment, but imagine, imagine he's like, no, actually. 395 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 1: I don't like being touched occasionally, the fuck away from me, mom. 396 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 1: We're not that close yet, good, but god, all my life. 397 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 1: It hit her hard though. Her legs gave out for 398 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:07,679 Speaker 1: a second, so I actually had to hold her up 399 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,399 Speaker 1: while she's still hugging me for a minute. What really 400 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: got me, was her saying to me, look how big 401 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:16,680 Speaker 1: you got. Also, hearing her cry made me cry too. 402 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 1: She went back to open the restaurant up. She wouldn't 403 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,159 Speaker 1: take no for an answer. We had a coffee, we 404 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: ate a slice of their pie inside and talked. So 405 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 1: many things we talked about, she told me. The second 406 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 1: time I came to the restaurant, she got the feeling, 407 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: but for her it was hard to believe it was me, 408 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 1: so that feeling she just pushed way down. Wow, oh premonition. 409 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: She says, I look so much like my biological dad 410 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 1: when he was younger, though we talked about him too. 411 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 1: They stayed in contact with each other in case I 412 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: ever reached out to one of them, so it'd be 413 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: easier to contact the other. I didn't have to hope 414 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 1: about finding my biological dad since he was never mentioned, 415 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 1: so I'm glad they both planned for this future scenario. 416 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 1: She told me about how they wanted to keep me, 417 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 1: especially my biological dad. He didn't want me to be adopted, 418 00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: but he knew they had to because they were just 419 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: It took him long enough to have passed it after 420 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: I was born. She told me, that's why he didn't 421 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 1: leave anything, because he didn't want to believe that he 422 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 1: might not see me again. We talked for hours to 423 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,719 Speaker 1: almost two in the morning. They closed it eleven. She 424 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 1: just wanted to know everything about me, but her main 425 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,199 Speaker 1: thing was am I happy? Were my parents good to me? 426 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,959 Speaker 1: Did I have a happy childhood? And I did. I 427 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 1: told her, thank you for helping me to give me 428 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 1: this life. We both cried again. She cried the most. 429 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 1: Everything was very emotional for her. Sometimes she would look 430 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: really happy but then get sad again. After my eighteenth birthday, 431 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: she was hoping I would find her, and that's why 432 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: she stayed in the same city all these years. But 433 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 1: since I didn't, she'd always thought maybe it was because 434 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 1: I resented her, maybe I wasn't told that I'm adopted, 435 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 1: or maybe I had decided it was better not to 436 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: have her around. It made me feel bad for not 437 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,400 Speaker 1: telling her sooner. She told me, it's not my fault, 438 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 1: and I did the right thing, going at my own pace. Honestly, 439 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: she's so sweet. The way she kept looking at me 440 00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 1: with the biggest smile, it made me emotional. Sometimes makes 441 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 1: you think, how can someone who's been a total stranger 442 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:04,640 Speaker 1: your whole life look at you with so much love. 443 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: It's wild. We learned so much about each other. She 444 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 1: asked me if we can have dinner again soon to 445 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 1: keep talking, and if at some point in the future 446 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: if I'm interested to come over to her house so 447 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: i can meet her husband. That all sounded really great. 448 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: We exchanged numbers, and after I left, she said to text, 449 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 1: telling me thank you for giving her this gift, and 450 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,160 Speaker 1: she didn't know if it would ever come. My girlfriend 451 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,239 Speaker 1: came over and she hugged me while I cried. I 452 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 1: wasn't sad by the way. These were happy tears. Everything 453 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: went better than expected. There was still emotionally heavy stuff, 454 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: but I'm so glad that we got to open up 455 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: to each other. 456 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 2: I mean, this is like a rare really happy Yeah, 457 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 2: like it's just cute. 458 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,400 Speaker 1: It just feels really good. 459 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 2: And like also man, I mean like the parents could 460 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 2: have not withheld the letters or like, you know, all 461 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 2: all these things happened. And also crazy that like she 462 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 2: uh like she thought it was him, which I guess, like, well, if. 463 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 1: He looks like the biological dad. Like additionally, it was 464 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: like is it premin or something. It's like it looks 465 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 1: exactly like the biological dad. She's like, wait, that looks 466 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:06,640 Speaker 1: that looks like the guy that knocks me up. It's 467 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: me from the past. I'm back again. I'm back baby. 468 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: But yeah, this is this is a very rare, great 469 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: wholesome love to hear it.
