working in a kitchen as chef de partie for a few days.
head chef does many anooying things to "beast" new guys in.
one of the things he did was to come next to me and mime throwing a boomerang at me whilst simultaneously whistling through his teeth very loud and high pitched into my ear through his teeth while i was chopping lettuce. he did this twice this morning. first time i didnt react. so he did it a second tim
got home now and my ear is ringing, i think he damaged my hearing. ive never done anything like this before but i want to sue him or the restaurant. whats the best way of going about it
how? dont you need money? what about no win no fee? is that the best way?
Kevin Lewis
Stab him in the spine with a knife. Say he stepped back when you were walking behind him >this is satire do not do this
John Wright
im in the UK they only give us blunt knives to use if the thing is really tough. sometimes you have to cut the veg with the edge of a tray. i happened to be using the knife at the time though. the lettuce was quite a lot so they made an exception
Joshua Kelly
my question really is, who do i talk to first? do i go to the hospital first to confirm hearing damage? do i go to the police station to file a report of assault? or do i go back to the restaurant and file a complaint with the general manager? or do i go to the lawyer first?
Brody Diaz
bump
Hudson Baker
lmao the absolute state of UKcucks
Jose Lopez
Sounds like you got beasted, OP.
Carter Myers
Hospital first. If you didn't actually damage your hearing, then there's no case. If you did, you also need to prove that it happened at work, so you might want to have a chat with a lawyer. Then file a report.
Sebastian Thomas
is this a workplace "accident"? or a case of assault? does that make any difference.
the guy who did this was my superior but not the owner of the business or the manager.
any lawyers here?
Ethan Collins
Most lawyers for this sort of thing will only charge you a percent of your winnings. If you lose the case, you're not out anything.
Brandon Powell
Talk to a lawyer. Sometimes lawyers will offer to take your case for free for part of the payout. The absolute fucking state
Julian Ortiz
hmm. what are your qualifications?
Sebastian Watson
holy shit what a beta cuck you are? if a person stands next to you whistling or screaming you ask him if he is a fucking retard. doesnt matter who it is
Jackson Scott
This joke sucks
Ian Martin
None, and the order in which these should be done are just my personal opinion and can be off a little except for the first one. Even if you're NOT going to sue, it's always wise to see a doctor if you suspect a damaged hearing. And in this case even more so, because you DO NOT HAVE A CASE, if you are A-OK.
Jason Ortiz
i was busy concentrating on cutting lettuce with a blunt knife at the time so i didnt react. i am going to sue him. so how is that beta? i dont have psychic spidey senses to know someone is gonna come beside me and whistle/shriek into my ear hole you mongoloid
David Bell
>the Chad whistler vs. the Virgin pussy ears
Christian Hernandez
how can you prove or disprove it? the hearing test is surely can you hear this? no? well you have hearing damage then.
Anthony Thomas
Well, actually I've been a part of the work safety section on my company for several years, but since policies must likely differ a lot between our countries that won't mean shit. But I base my opinion on that experience
Ask him to speak up and repeat everytime he calls an order because he deafened you. Like, every single time.
Samuel Davis
I don't know the exact procedures, but i would surmise that hearing test is one way and they might check if your eardrums are damaged, which can totally happen with loud enough noise.
Carter Perry
This is a joke, right?
Zachary Wright
is my hearing damage funny or something? im asking for advice here
Adrian White
well what did you do after he did it? just stood there and said nothing? that is very beta yes.
but sue him after is at least something to redeem yourself so good on that, even if its a pretty lame move aswell i guess its the best option if you are built like a 12 year old girl mentally and physically.
Zachary Thomas
Get the your situation documented by a doctor ASAP. You will need that proof and the closer to the incident the better
Jaxon Thomas
i think you're pretty stupid. what did you want me to do? fucking punch him or something? i would be the one getting sued in that case.
Ian Turner
its saturday evening so it will have to wait till monday now
Angel Adams
fyi, you DID tell him to stop after he did it the first time RIGHT??
Isaac Lee
now you can go back and read my other comments to you. i told you to look at him and ask him if he is a retard. ask him why he stands next to you and screams in your ear, and you will have him embarras himself infront of everyone with his stupid answers. i am talking from own experience, i know how effective this is, and i am here to help you and you call me stupid. good luck to you
Charles Reyes
no. i was busy. and it was all over in a split second. the kitchen is quite noisy so me saying anything would have not been heard
Dominic Wright
no. you are clearly an underage shut in larping as a hard man on the internet
okay go to the doctor and get them to say you have hearing loss. Problem is going to be you will have to go multiple times to show that it is permanent otherwise probably won't be worth the money to sue. Also, (call out sick to work on Monday when you go to the doctor). Then talk to lawyer if possible so they can help you write the correct stuff when you file report at work. Make sure you stress how loud it was, how you have lost hearing according to doctor, how it is causing you stress and anxiety, you are jumpy, you can't sleep, not hungry. etc. Make it sound like the other person was way out of line and you are really hurt. (really talk to a lawyer if you have not by the time you file your report with job and don't say anything to anyone after you file report unless you talk to a lawyer first.) Probably not worth filing a police report but talk to a lawyer about that IDK how UK exactly works with this stuff.
Maybe you should see a doctor first and then probably an ear specialist.
If the ear specialist concludes there has been damage to your ear then you can sue for the cost of surgery and/or treatment.
If there is ongoing or long term physical therapy, then he or the company will also be liable.
If the damage is permanent or otherwise you may be entitled to a lump sum generally covered by the company liability policy or you may have to sue the employee.
Ethan Reyes
workplace assault, sue the company dor 10 million
Joseph Wood
tell me more
Lucas Hill
Exhibit B: >"CUMULATIVE ear loss. "
Evan Harris
>all kitchen bosses saw Ramsey's show >now all emulate him and suddenly its ok to do workplace aggression and assault
Sue this no-life piece of braindead boomer. Go big like 500,000 and aim at retiring.
Exxagerate the damage done to you...lie to get him fucked
I highly doubt you have any lasting damage. If you do however, claim that you have some sort of future in music or something that requires good hearing, you'll get a higher payout.
Jonathan Martin
LMAOOOO
Adam Sanchez
Not sure if joke or clown world anymore.
Jack Rogers
you got fucked and you'll never get a cent of money from this.
all you can do is get revenge with an airhorn and blow out his ears.
Benjamin Murphy
Lrn gramr,
Samuel Jenkins
Goddamn it. I'm trying to comprehend what you just said, but the whole "blunt knife" thing is so insanely retarded that I literally cannot imagine this being real life. It's fucking mind boggling how much you britcucks let your government walk all over you. Do they also have a nanny that comes and checks in on you each night to make sure that you brushed your teeth like a good little goy?
