What's up everyone and welcome back.
0:03
Today we are diving head first into a
0:06
world of pure audacity, incredible
0:08
loopholes, and life-changing moments.
0:12
We're talking about the most bogus
0:13
charges people have ever seen. The most
0:16
insane things students have said to
0:17
their teachers and the one comment from
0:19
a boss that led to an immediate
0:22
We've got stories of revenge,
0:24
redemption, and some family secrets so
0:27
wild they'll make your jaw drop.
0:30
Trust me, you're not going to believe
0:34
The bogus bill that led to a rental
0:37
charge. Let's start with a story that's
0:39
a masterclass in standing up for
0:41
yourself. This comes from a guy whose
0:44
wife was pregnant and in the hospital.
0:47
The couple was in a teaching hospital,
0:49
which they were fine with. They knew
0:51
that learning was part of the deal. So
0:54
when a doctor they'd never seen before,
0:56
a man in a crisp white coat, casually
0:58
walked into the room with a group of
0:59
student nurses, they didn't think
1:04
He politely asked if he could use the
1:06
wife's case to explain something about
1:08
pregnancy, and they said, "Sure, that's
1:10
totally fine." He gently lifted the
1:11
blanket, spoke for a moment to his
1:13
students about her condition, and then
1:15
the whole group walked out. It was a
1:17
quick, professional exchange, and the
1:19
couple was happy to help. No notes were
1:21
taken in her chart. No examination was
1:24
performed in the traditional sense and
1:26
the doctor never even spoke directly to
1:28
the patient. It was a teaching moment,
1:32
nothing more. But then the bill arrived
1:35
and on it a charge for $180 from that
1:39
very doctor's office.
1:41
The charge was for examining my wife.
1:45
My guy was furious. He called the office
1:50
He didn't examine anything. He said he
1:53
didn't write a single note in her file
1:55
and he never even touched or spoke to
1:57
her. He was teaching students and he
2:00
already gets paid well for that.
2:02
But the staff didn't seem to care. The
2:05
office manager in a cold matter-of-act
2:07
voice said, "The doctor examined her.
2:11
That's what the charge is for. Pay it or
2:14
face the consequences."
2:16
Well, this guy was not the kind of
2:18
person to back down. He thought, "Two
2:25
So, he went home, got an envelope, and
2:28
mailed a bill of his own to the doctor's
2:30
office. On the bill, it was clearly
2:33
written for rental of a training model.
2:40
The office manager called him back,
2:42
absolutely livid. What does this mean?
2:46
She demanded. He calmly explained it.
2:49
It's simple. He used my wife to train
2:52
student nurses, and there's a fee for
2:54
that, too. If he insists it was a real
2:57
exam, we'll meet in small claims court.
3:00
There, I'll ask him to show where in her
3:03
records his exam notes can be found. Not
3:06
long after, the doctor's lawyer called,
3:08
offering to settle. The husband's
3:11
response was perfect. There's nothing to
3:14
settle. Drop the bill and I'll drop
3:19
He never heard from them again. It just
3:21
goes to show sometimes you have to get
3:23
creative to fight a system that's trying
3:25
to rip you off. The smartest, most
3:27
depressing thing a student ever said.
3:29
Now, let's talk about a story that will
3:31
make you rethink everything you think
3:32
you know about high school students. A
3:34
teacher shared this unforgettable moment
3:36
with a student who was failing math. The
3:38
teacher had called the student into the
3:40
office for a quick pep talk. He started
3:43
by explaining that it's honestly harder
3:45
to get an F than to just do the basic
3:46
work and pass with a D. He was trying to
3:49
motivate the kid, to get him to put in
3:51
just a little effort. But the student
3:54
looked at him with an unnerving calmness
3:56
and said something that completely
3:58
stunned the teacher. He explained that
4:00
he had carefully read the school
4:02
district's new summer school policy. It
4:05
clearly stated that if a student
4:06
received a D or an F in a core subject,
4:09
they were allowed to take the class
4:10
again for free during the summer
4:12
session. But if they got a C or higher
4:16
and simply wanted to raise their grade,
4:18
the cost was a whopping 360, a sum his
4:21
family definitely couldn't afford to pay
4:23
out of pocket without making major
4:24
sacrifices. So, the student had made a
4:27
very thoughtful and difficult decision.
4:29
He was purposely failing the class. His
4:33
plan was to retake it in the summer for
4:35
free and aim for a much better grade,
4:37
maybe even an A. The teacher was truly
4:40
speechless. This kid's reasoning made
4:43
complete sense, and the teacher couldn't
4:45
offer a single strong argument against
4:46
it. It was a loophole, a flaw in the
4:48
system that a kid had found and
4:50
exploited in the most heartbreaking way.
4:53
The teacher simply told him to sit
4:54
quietly for the rest of the semester,
4:56
avoid bothering anyone, and wished him
4:58
the best of luck. Word spread quickly
5:01
and soon more and more students copied
5:03
his plan. Summer school ended up packed
5:05
with remedial kids who were actually
5:07
more than capable of doing well. Some
5:10
teachers were annoyed, but the students
5:11
were simply following the district's
5:13
policy exactly as written.
5:16
When summer came, the original student
5:19
retook the class and earned a
5:23
His story became a legendary tale among
5:25
the faculty, a stark reminder of how a
5:28
seemingly simple policy could have such
5:30
a profound and depressing impact. The
5:33
cruel comment that led to an epic
5:35
takedown. This next story is a powerful
5:38
one about a boss whose cruelty was the
5:40
catalyst for one person's incredible
5:42
success. This guy had been at his
5:45
accounting firm for 7 years. He was
5:47
loyal, never missed a deadline, and was
5:49
always the first one in the door. For
5:52
three months, he had been balancing
5:53
hospital visits with 60-hour work weeks.
5:57
His daughter had been diagnosed with
5:58
leukemia, and it had been a harrowing
6:00
journey. That Friday, his daughter's
6:02
doctor called. Her white cell count had
6:05
crashed, and she needed emergency
6:06
treatment. He knew he had to leave
6:10
He walked into his boss's office and
6:12
told him the situation. The boss,
6:15
without even looking up from his
6:16
computer, said five words that would
6:18
change everything. That's what weekends
6:20
are for. The employee stood there
6:23
stunned. 7 years of loyalty and that's
6:27
what he was worth. He tried to explain,
6:30
his voice shaking. My daughter might not
6:32
have until the weekend. We all have
6:35
problems, the boss replied, still
6:37
focused on his screen. The Peterson
6:40
audit is due Monday. In that moment,
6:43
everything became clear. the job, the
6:47
loyalty, the long hours. None of it
6:51
He placed his key card on the desk and
6:53
walked out. He didn't pack his things.
6:57
He didn't say goodbye to anyone. He just
7:02
In the hospital waiting room, he sent
7:04
one final simple email to HR explaining
7:07
why he wouldn't be returning. 3 days
7:09
later, while his daughter was
7:11
recovering, he got a call from their
7:12
biggest client. They'd heard what
7:15
happened through office gossip and were
7:17
disgusted by the boss's callousness.
7:19
They offered him a position as their
7:21
in-house financial director with a 30%
7:24
higher salary, flexible hours, and full
7:26
benefits. The best part, 6 months later,
7:30
they pulled their $12 million account
7:32
from his old firm. His ex- boss was
7:35
demoted. He sometimes thinks about
7:38
sending his old boss a thank you card
7:40
because his cruelty was the push he
7:42
needed to find something better for
7:43
himself and his daughter, who by the way
7:48
The fired tech who got the last laugh.
7:51
Get ready for a story about sweet, sweet
7:54
This guy, let's call him Alex, was the
7:56
only certified technician at a tech
7:58
repair shop, but his boss, Mike, treated
8:01
him like he was completely disposable.
8:04
One Friday, Alex stayed late to fix a
8:06
laptop for a customer who was in a huge
8:08
hurry. The customer was so grateful to
8:10
get her laptop with all her wedding
8:12
photos back that she tipped him $100
8:15
directly. Monday morning, Mike called
8:17
Alex into his office. Pointing at the
8:20
security footage, he said, "You're
8:22
stealing from the company. That's
8:23
company money." Alex tried to explain it
8:26
was a personal tip, but Mike wouldn't
8:28
listen. Clean out your desk. You're
8:31
fired. Alex, shocked and angry, packed
8:34
his things and left. What Mike didn't
8:37
realize was that Alex was the one who
8:39
had been fixing the town mayor's
8:40
computer and the school district's
8:42
server system. 3 days later, his phone
8:45
blew up. First the mayor, then the
8:48
superintendent, both furious that their
8:50
equipment wasn't ready. Then Mike
8:52
called. His tone was completely
8:56
Hey, Alex. Slight misunderstanding. Why
8:59
don't you come back? Same position, same
9:02
pay. Same pay for the only certified
9:04
technician in town, Alex said, savoring
9:06
the moment. Well, what do you want? Mike
9:09
asked. Double my salary, 10% of all
9:12
fees, and a written apology, Alex said.
9:18
2 days later, the other technician told
9:20
Alex that Mike had lost the mayor's
9:22
business, the school district contract,
9:24
and three other major clients. A week
9:26
after that, Mike showed up at Alex's
9:28
front door with a contract offering him
9:30
everything he had asked for.
9:32
Alex simply closed the door in his face.
9:35
He had already accepted a job with the
9:37
school district. Better pay, better
9:39
benefits, and no Mike.
9:42
The shop closed 3 months later. Turns
9:44
out Alex was pretty special after all.
9:48
The time clock loophole. Ever wondered
9:51
if you could beat the system at work?
9:53
This person did and they exploited a
9:55
loophole for 3 years. When they started
9:59
at a new tech company, they noticed the
10:01
time clock rounded to 15minute
10:03
intervals. They reviewed the employee
10:05
handbook and saw no policy about this
10:08
rounding system. So for 2 weeks, they
10:11
started experimenting.
10:13
They discovered that if you clocked in
10:15
between 853 and 9:07, it recorded
10:19
exactly 9. The same thing happened for
10:22
clocking out. Anything between 453 and
10:26
507 registered as 5. This meant a
10:29
possible 14-minute window of paid time
10:32
twice a day. He started arriving at 9:06
10:35
and leaving at 4:54 daily. Nobody
10:38
noticed, and his manager even praised
10:41
his punctuality and reviews. He did this
10:43
for 3 years, banking a little extra time
10:45
every day. Then 3 years later, HR
10:48
announced a new biometric time system
10:50
with minute precision tracking. A week
10:53
before implementation, he got an email
10:55
flagging his suspicious time patterns
10:57
and requesting a meeting. He came
11:00
prepared with a print out of the
11:02
employee handbook and documentation
11:04
showing he had never violated any
11:06
policy. The handbook simply stated work
11:09
hours 9 to 5 with no specifics about the
11:12
rounding. During the meeting, HR claimed
11:15
he'd stolen 19 minutes daily for 3
11:17
years, totaling over $9,000.
11:21
They threatened termination and
11:24
He calmly showed them his documentation
11:26
and pointed out that without a specific
11:28
policy, they had no grounds for action.
11:32
He also mentioned, bluffing, that he had
11:34
already consulted an employment
11:35
attorney. 2 weeks later, they issued a
11:37
revised handbook with detailed time
11:39
policies. HR sent a companywide email
11:42
about closing system loopholes, but he
11:45
never got fired. His manager later
11:47
whispered to him. They found 23 others
11:50
doing the same thing. They couldn't
11:52
afford to lose that many people at once.
11:55
He still works there, but now he arrives
12:00
The IVF baby and the family secret.
12:04
This next story is a deeply personal one
12:06
about a shocking family secret that came
12:08
to light during the holidays.
12:11
Growing up with four older brothers,
12:13
this person always thought they were
12:15
just the girl their parents had hoped
12:16
for. But this past Christmas, they
12:20
discovered something that would turn
12:21
their entire world upside down. They
12:24
were at their dad's nursing home, a
12:26
typical loud holiday gathering with
12:28
their boisterous brothers dominating
12:31
Whenever dating came up, all eyes would
12:34
inevitably land on her, and they joke
12:36
about her ending up like their mom, who
12:38
started dating their dad when she was
12:41
The constant teasing was getting under
12:43
her skin. This time, their comments
12:46
about relationships, pregnancy, and guys
12:49
being trash pushed her over the edge.
12:52
Under her breath, she muttered, "I wish
12:57
She didn't think anyone heard her, but
12:59
her mom did. Her mom turned to her and
13:02
said something that stopped her dead in
13:05
"Why would you want that?" "We chose for
13:08
you to be a girl for a reason." "Chose?"
13:12
she asked, completely confused.
13:15
Suddenly, her brothers were staring at
13:16
her. Then, they burst out laughing. One
13:19
of them smirked and dropped a bomb.
13:22
"Dude, you're the lab rat?" She stood up
13:25
and demanded answers. And that's how on
13:27
Christmas day after 20 years of her
13:29
life, she learned the most shocking
13:30
truth. She's an IVF baby. Her dad
13:34
couldn't conceive with her mom, so they
13:35
made her in a laboratory.
13:38
But here's the kicker. When given the
13:40
choice, they specifically chose for her
13:42
to be a girl. Why? Because they were
13:45
flatout tired of having boys. She never
13:48
even knew this was possible. She could
13:51
have had an entirely different life.
13:53
Instead, she was born because her
13:55
parents wanted to break their family
13:57
pattern. One genetic selection, one
14:00
deliberate choice, and suddenly her
14:02
entire identity felt like it was hanging
14:04
by a thread. She was a planned
14:07
experiment, a carefully curated
14:09
daughter, and now she doesn't know how
14:11
to feel. The psychopath brother.
14:14
Finally, we have a harrowing story from
14:16
a person who grew up with a psychopath
14:18
for a brother. This person's older
14:20
brother from day one was abnormally
14:22
aggressive. The first thing he did when
14:24
she was born was try to rip open her
14:26
stomach with his nails. When he started
14:28
school, he quickly learned that he could
14:29
physically attack other kids and still
14:31
be their mother's golden child. His
14:33
behavior went over the edge once their
14:35
father, the only person holding him
14:37
back, passed away. He once used a pencil
14:40
to try and take a boy's eye out because
14:42
the boy had looked at him the wrong way.
14:44
During homecoming, he ran around with
14:46
acid in a bottle and sprayed it on girls
14:49
clothes. A majority of those girls ended
14:51
up with burns and had to go to the
14:53
hospital. He was expelled from three
14:55
different high schools for threatening
14:56
to attack teachers. The thing is, her
14:59
brother was never unloved.
15:02
Over the years, all their relatives,
15:04
friends, and teachers doted on him,
15:06
convinced there was a reason behind his
15:08
outbursts and that all he needed was
15:12
It all came to an end when he recorded a
15:14
video of him running over a guy who was
15:16
walking his dog. While in prison, he was
15:20
finally diagnosed as an actual
15:23
When he was released, he suddenly
15:25
remembered he had a sister and did his
15:27
best to find her. He showed up at her
15:30
house and pretended he had gotten
15:31
therapy and was all better now.
15:34
She let him live with her for 2 months,
15:37
during which he tried to impose his
15:38
extreme political views on her and blew
15:41
his entire inheritance money at a
15:44
When he threw her cat out of a window,
15:46
she had no choice but to call the cops
15:48
and cut all contact with him. It was a
15:51
terrifying ordeal, a lifelong trauma
15:54
that a person should never have to
15:55
endure, and a brutal lesson in what a
15:58
true psychopath is capable of. These
16:00
stories are just a few examples of how
16:02
wild life can get. From fighting back
16:05
against a bogus bill to the devastating
16:07
truth of a family secret and the sheer
16:09
audacity of people just trying to get
