hello and welcome back to another kcc video i'm rob and i hope you're having a wonderful day today
today we're jumping into some pro revenge our first story today comes to us from silver wolf
that time i accidentally worked for the russian mafia and proxy blew up a dumpster with bread
dough let's jump right in i'm a professional baker and have worked for various companies developing
recipes and the like i found a job at a local grocery store working super early mornings on
their pastries for the day there were usually a few other people there one of whom was a mixer
mixers typically follow a spec sheet with the weights of all the ingredients they need to
batch mix it's kind of mindless work and doesn't require much thought he was a young guy fresh out
of his teens we became fast co-worker friends and enjoyed chatting it up about baking and i'd
help him put our supply order away good times one day a woman with a thick russian accent came in
and handed us business cards she told us whatever we're getting paid her company would double it if
we came to work for them i scheduled an interview thinking this would be a great opportunity for me
it was a new grocery store concept like a glitzy glammy european style costco whatever that means
when i went in for the interview the place was literally still under construction i met their
lead baker and we hit it off right away he warned me that the big boss had interesting tastes and
we'd need to work with that no biggie more money let's go they hired us both and over the next
several months it was a really interesting and fun experience the big boss thick burly russian
man to the point and perpetually angry wanted this place to be like costco mass production
of quality pastries they were bringing in crazy amounts of new equipment including folders shapers
and injectors that were easily worth millions we didn't have much equipment to start and we were
doing a lot of mixing in trash cans remember my mixer buddy well he was working on the bread dough
using spec sheets provided by our lead baker over time they were bringing on more staff
and it was a lot of fun developing new recipes experimenting with ratios and figuring out how
to get over constraints for the type of products that boss wanted did i mention he was a butthole
oh yeah when he was reviewing some cheesecake i had made he said good job sweetie i came back with
miss ma'am or my name is fine he scowled at me and from that point he treated me like garbage
we brought other women on staff i watched him hit on them some of the others were cool with
being harassed i guess this place was paying top dollar and had to get in good with the big boss
right so the stage is set here boss quickly turned his business into a game of survivor he'd fire
people on the spot for whatever reason one day one of the people he sacked was our lead baker
it came as a surprise since he was developing all the recipes we'd been using i inherited a lot of
his notes and his development work was divided between me and the mixer so this whole time mixer
was kissing big boss's butt pretty hard he was seeing an open position with the lead baker gone
and quickly became invested in the idea of him running the bakery show and making some serious
money at the same time my relationship with big boss was quickly declining for an example i had
him sample some cinnamon rolls i had made and he came back with i hate these they're terrible
what do you not like we can change anything about them the dough the filling the icing i don't know
i just don't like them on a hunch i gave some cinnamon rolls from the same batch to another
lady there he had eyes for and asked her if she'd present them to him as her own she offered him the
same product i had given him minutes before and he loved it anyway i noticed that my notes were out
of place one day and a co-worker informed me my mixer buddy was stealing my work and presenting it
as his own he was also approaching me and asking a lot of baking questions which was fine but i knew
that his knowledge of industrial ratio baking was mediocre at best he was a mixer following a recipe
is all he knew how to do knowing this i made a decoy copy of my notes but this time i put really
really awful recipes with huge amounts of salt or yeast anyone who knew how to build a recipe
could probably look at it and go whoa that's a lot not mixer buddy my original plan was to leave this
in an obvious spot as bait and let him steal the awful recipes but big boss had other plans we sat
down for a pre-lunch meeting and he informed me i wasn't going to be working in the bakery anymore
and being relegated to store setup mixer was going to be taking over as the lead baker guess all that
butt kissing really paid off and i was going to give him all my notes so far no problem boss
a day later was when the fun really began mixer mixed up a huge batch of super salty cake batter
and i heard big boss screaming at him about way too much salt that's not even where the
fun begins as we were setting up an industrial quantity baking equipment we had to test the
larger quantity mixing machines and did a test run for some bread dough with my decoy
recipe that had tripled the yeast and sugar as it didn't come out right mixer had to throw it away
his choice the dumpster out back in the dead heat of summer hundreds of pounds of dough the
fun thing about massive amounts of bread dough is that it doesn't magically stop rising if you throw
it away especially in a hot dumpster a few hours later i spied out the back door to see mixer buddy
shoveling this massive blob of dough into trash bags that had exploded from the dumpster like an
uncovered blender spewing out a yeast-laden smoothie here's a photo of what it looked like
it's not the original dumpster but it should give you an idea of how awful it is sweet
revenge now about the mafia thing this store was really strange they had been ordering doubles of
all the crazy industrial baking equipment and storing them in the back we had nowhere to put
any of this i also looked up the company they were subcontracted under and it was to a dead address
in russia big boss also had armed security guards everywhere this was a grocery store mind you
i had a feeling that this company was more of a front for laundering a bunch of money
i eventually was fired by big boss which was great because i had been job hunting
full well knowing this business was a sinking ship i had a new job lined up already they had their
grand opening did business for three months then closed rest in peace mixer you know some jobs just
simply aren't worth the pain and trouble they put you through no matter how much dough you're making
op rose to the occasion and at least they got a new job no puns intended do me a quick favor have

next story today comes to us from audi murphy the time a tenant had my car towed let's jump right in
about a year before the whole pandemic thing i lost my government job i am an audiologist and
so i had little doubt i would find work but i also knew my best bet for top earnings was to work for
myself so i secured my financing sold a bunch of stocks and mutual funds that had done pretty well
and set about finding a property my plan was to open a practice but buy a building that had a
rentable space to help bring in additional revenue stream i eventually came upon this great little
building in the heart of downtown with a nice big parking lot the building was a formal commercial
garage the giant bay doors where trucks used to come in and out of were replaced by these really
nice walls full of windows that still open like garage doors but formed a covered space in front
of the units this is relevant later i knew the property just from being around town and i thought
they looked really cool they are crisp and modern and in my opinion have a cool scandinavian feel to
them anyway i love this building as i roll up to take my first tour with the realtor and the owner
i pull into the lot as instructed and the second i step out of my car i see a woman rushing out of
the building toward me i am wondering is this the owner someone who works for the owner no it is a
woman with a face full of piercings loudly telling me i need to move my car now or it will be towed
i have a meeting here i began she would have none of it move it now or i'll call the police she said
i was about to move my car when the realtor and the owner on the other side of the lot called
over and began walking toward me she immediately retreated before they got close enough for us to
work all of this out i clarified that i was okay to park there and they confirmed it was fine
i asked who that was and they told me she owns one of the shops in the unit just ignore her the owner
said she thinks she runs the place and realtor and owner shared a chuckle i walk the property and we
go over some things and life is good i get in my car and leave pretty convinced this is the place
i need to buy because i also intend to house my practice there i agreed to lease one of the units
and start getting set up while all of the closing stuff that needed to happen could be completed
so for about two months i was a tenant just like all the other tenants i never really got into the
fact that i was buying the building because my interactions with my neighbors were polite but
transactional well mostly polite the woman with all of the yelling let's call her megan
was none too pleased with my presence she owned a store that sold custom made well
costumes i suppose lots of steampunk outfits and period costumes that she makes herself impressive
work though honestly i have to imagine she does most of her trade online since i seldom see people
in her place i was there not more than a week when she barged into my unit and began making sure i
was aware that the parking lot was not for customers and was for them only and i was only
allotted one spot i said thanks but i have parking all worked out with gus the owner i appreciate
your concern and i showed her the door the parking lot which i was purchasing along with the building
has 60 spaces there are five units according to her we are each allowed one parking space
and no customers or visitors are permitted to park there at all so i know there are either
shenanigans afoot or this woman is speaking out of her butt anyway i ignore her time passes i close
on the building gus sends out a heartwarming thank you email to all tenants saying he appreciates
their years of business together but that the property is now owned by my company name llc
of which i am the owner pretty clear stuff the very first thing i did was a reorganize on the
parking lot each unit gets one regular parking space primo spots right next to the building
there are two 15-minute loading spots back there as well i designated the next five closest spaces
to handicap parking the rest was just parking my long-term plan is to put in one of those
automated parking kiosks so people who are there to patronize the businesses can park for free
but anyone else will have to pay but that's down the road for now i just needed to formalize some
stuff and just accept that i may have some people parking there illegally and
if it becomes a problem i'll just have to hit the security cameras to see who is abusing the system
anyway megan is furious she is furious that there are not enough handicapped spots there were none
before she is pissed that she needs more than 15 minutes for a loading zone who is timing it she is
pissed most of all however because she was never consulted flash forward a few days and i parked
on a non-parking spot the sidewalk in front of my building is privately owned basically you turn off
the public sidewalk and walk down the private sidewalk to where all of the businesses are i
parked on a paved patch next to my unit on the far side away from the public sidewalk accessible only
by my parking lot i parked there with every legal right to do so by the way because i was unloading
equipment since i owned the space i was parked on and everything around it i didn't move my car
right after i walk outside and my car is gone so i immediately assume someone stole my car
then there's megan standing in her doorway with a big crap-eating grin on her face i asked her
if she knows anything about my missing car oh was that your car i saw a car parked illegally
so i had it towed i said laugh it up any expense is getting added to your rent i went to the tow
company that the prior owner hired and i laid into him for towing anything from my property
without authorization his argument was that he had a contract with the property he did not he
had a contract with the company that formerly owned the building that was now null in the end
i knew arguing would get me nowhere so i paid him and took my car i left with hate in my heart and
my mind solely focused on revenge i began really scrutinizing my security tapes and discovered that
all of these unaccounted for vehicles in the parking lot all had something in common megan
i had a suspicion she was selling parking in my lot so i waited by one of the cars until the guy
arrived i told him as he walked from an area that was not my building that he was not authorized to
park there he looked confused and told me to mind my own business and he pays for parking
i introduced myself as the owner of the lot and asked who he was paying and how much the answer
was megan and 125 a month suddenly her business made a lot more sense i thought of confronting
her i thought of just straight up evicting her instead i hired a security company they set up a
temporary booth at the entrance of the parking lot and a guard ensured that everyone there was there
for one of the businesses if someone parked and wandered off somewhere else they were told that
they were going to be towed anyone who claimed to be paying for parking would just be turned away
what followed was around two dozen very angry people in megan's store over the course of the
week they paid good money for those spots and now she was pulling out the carpet people were pissed
megan lays pretty low for a while then kovitz strikes and we're all rightly in fear for our
livelihood as soon as it was legal i told the tenants they could open the big garage door and
have a covered outdoor space for their trade this was a necessary thing to keep them open and was
outside the scope of their lease since they were not allowed to put in outdoor seating etc everyone
is super happy about this except megan megan's unit is flanked by a coffee shop on one side
and a little specialty bakery on the other so you now have to walk around an outdoor seating area to
get into her store it's the same situation for my unit however and it just isn't that big of a deal
megan is fuming she starts calling the police multiple times a day every day for supposed
coveted violations on my part and the part of the other tenants this was after by the way
i said absolutely nothing about her being in her store and working even when non-essential
businesses were supposed to be closed the cops stopped coming after her third or fourth call
at this point i had enough her lease was up last may and so i non-renewed it she threatened up and
down that she was going to sue me and when she was done the whole building would be hers i responded
by suing her for the 125 dollars a month she collected from all those people for parking
best of all she just didn't show up to court and so it resulted in a summary judgment in my favor
i don't expect i will collect though she abandoned at least a few thousand bucks worth of inventory
and equipment when she left so that will help i have to admit i really like how this one
played out setting up the security team in the parking lot was a brilliant move saved a headache
and sent everybody straight to megan's door perfect our first story today comes to us from
