      I can think of a few funny scenarios to come out of this.

      Customer: “Ok, so with 15% tip that comes to-”

      Audible cocking of a revolver

      Customer: “Sorry I misspoke, so with 50% tip that comes to-”

        In a better world:

        Assistant: “Uhh, sir? A bunch of the drivers are outside demanding a dental plan and stock options”

        CEO: “Too bad, they’re contractors and not employees, have security escort them out”

        Assistant: “Sir, security is refusing to touch this one. They’re all armed to the teeth. One of the, erm, contractors is open carrying a Barrett .50 Calibre sniper rifle and is pointing it at your portrait in the lobby mouthing the words “pew pew pew” repeatedly while miming the motion of recoil on the gun”

        CEO: “…actually their demands are perfectly reasonable”

        Where i live you have to get a certification for nonviolent de-escalation of conflict it’s honestly one of the easiest tests I’ve ever taken as an adult

        I googled it but I got nowhere. Assuming the post is true - I bet the CEO tried to join some private security firm and he failed their test over and over.

      I was curious so I went and took a few security guard practice tests online. The worst score I got was an 85%. They’re mostly basic questions about taking notes, placing people under a citizen’s arrest, when it’s appropriate to unholster a weapon, whether or not you should impersonate a cop, or fire extinguisher use. I genuinely think the only way to fail is if you’re answering blatantly wrong questions like “shoot him in the face” or “scream at any teenager that approaching on your side of the street is a felony” or “tell them that you’re a police officer and will arrest them” or “throw the fire extinguisher into the fire.”

      So they can blast your eardrums when someone cuts them off and the driver decided to shoot his windshield out from inside at 75 MPH

    If someone with a gun enters your car, they’re gonna kill you

    i think willingly and knowingly getting into a stranger who is armed’s car is pretty fucking close to this

    Time to steal some identities then steal some guns, I guess.

    Seriously, bets on how long until the first video one one of these guys getting robbed shows up?

      It’s a Bluesky web client. Some (many?) Bluesky accounts force a log-in to see posts.
