you don't reckon they had an inkling something is up with cameras and booms around?

​@@kizzagaming6523 they tell them random stuff like this is for a project housing tutorial or some shit they tell them like documenting process for new hires shit like that. Either way great employee and good actions by boss

@@sunnyd6439 True, but I feel like it's pretty well known at this point and it would get out and people would probably ham it up " Just in case "

It’s fake

You nailed it!

Its all set up. He knows he's on undercover boss. Else what would be the reason for the cameras everywhere?

@@gb342002 The answer is stated in the opening of each show!!! A head up of the company, usually the CEO, will pretend to be an entry level worker with a once in a lifetime opportunity to try out all of the positions within a certain career path (whatever his/her company does - mail delivery, fast food, septic, road cleaning, etc.)... everybody training the boss knows they are on camera because they think they are a part of a show trying to discover which entry level job suits the "newbie" best. That is why they do not question the cameras and are not suspicious - also why nobody gets sued for filming without permission. At the end of the show, all of the people who trained the undercover boss meet up at the company's headquarters in order to give their personal opinion on whether or not they think he/she can do whatever job they trained the boss in. That is when they find out it was the CEO the entire time!!! It is both funny and nerve wracking because sometimes their cover is blown. It is always a bit exhilarating when a worker asks, "Am I on Undercover Boss?" Like - what do they do now? Anyways, I know youtube only has highlights from the show. That is why I thought I would explain the opening and how that all works. I hope you have a beautiful day!!! God created you with love and purpose. I pray He reveals Himself to you in mighty ways and that you have joy!!!

@@littlekyle Stupid people with little common sense make for good content.

Too bad milenial and zoomer women don't value good men as much as previous generations. I work hard as fuck to get sales, and for nothing. No one to go home to or care for. Thing is, i'm not even ugly or stupid. I'm pretty attractive and charming. I can't even imagine how fufilling it must be to have kids to support and rolemodel for.

It's sad that some companies hire people that do not belong in that position. I was a Senior Team Lead at American Recovery and assisted in about 100 interviews just for customer service people. The 15 people that I went to bat for, which nobody else had high on their list all got hired and all were still employed by the company when I left (approx 4-6 years that I had input on hiring). I made a heck of a talent scout and you can tell by what people say whether or not they are good people. If they just come at me with normal answers that they got online to say before the interview I would check to see if they were nervous. You can tell all from sweat, stuttering, body language ect ect. Around a 1/3rd of the people I went to bat for were very nervous, and usually it means that they don't want to mess up because they REALLY WANT that job. The ones that sound like they do interviews every day and are too comfortable I take another look at their work history to see how long they are at each position.

Any company would improve from just being human. And not robots programmed to serve the god emperor capitalism

Dude....it's fake. These are actors. You are a simpleton

Where was the second hard working guy?

@@JoeKnows44 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Its fake tho

​​​@@JoeKnows44 my father ran businesses when i was a kid. He worked 90 hour weeks, and worse during the 08 housing crisis. He employed 180 men who all were able to provide well for their families. Quit acting like other people dont work hard, especially during acts of kindness. Its unbecoming of an adult.

@@JoeKnows44 such a childish take. Most CEO’s weren’t just gifted that position for nothing. It’s a ton of hard work involved. Long hours.

They're all over the place. Stop buying into the narrative of "ceo = money hungry psychopath". It's a false narrative. It applies sometimes, let me explain. When you have that image in your head, what you're really imagining are Fortune 500 companies that have CEOs who had nothing to do with the founding of the company. Those CEOs are usually brought in after the company is already publicly traded on the stock market and the company itself has been sold. Now those companies sole function is to generate stock value for shareholders. This is where the greed and money-hunger comes in. The CEO of a small business is typically the founder of the business. Starting a business does not in any way, shape, or form indicate greed or psychopathy. These are the folks that literally built the world around you that you get to live in while criticizing them inside of an ignorant, baseless, fact-less echo chamber perpetuating this false narrative. It's something you heard, and are now regurgitating without ever having seriously thought about the issue. Don't be that guy.

I think many are like him, but you just only hear about the bad ones

Lol so he let his own workers get treated like garbage until a TV show showed up.. k good man there

@@ChrisWilliams-rz2op Got some evidence for that or are you talking out of your ass?

Great he made 1 worker in his massive company better. But he didn't fix any of the problems that made his worker get 2 jobs or financially suffer. In the end there are no good ceos. Even this one had to have a camera in his face to do the right thing. If workers actually could elect their ceos maybe their would be some accountability.

Eurgh, i feel like one of these, i get noticed, but i just get taken for a ride. Im getting so tired of never getting anywhere career wise, yet i put my heart and soul into everything i do. Sometimes, i feel like there's not a lot left.

I like how the guy had the pictures of his kids right there waiting. Not showing him pictures on his phone. But physical pictures of his kid he just reached down and picked up. That dude was a Belfor executive already. Probably in the marketing department.

Absolutely correct

Respect!

The owner only did it because of the TV show. That's what's fucked up about this TV show. If it didn't exist, that good hard working guy wouldn't have gotten shit because he worked for the same company for years and never got recognition until this fucking stupid show

@@pyroth309 lmfao he gives him tens of thousands of dollars and people like you immediately revert to “all bosses are oppressors”😂😂 Get out of your mother’s basement, dude

He pays the people who actually do the services that bring in the money so poorly that they can’t even afford basic necessities on SIXTY TO EIGHTY HOURS OF WEEKLY PAY. And then he OFFERED THE DUDE A LOAN. He doesn’t care even a little bit. He’s a criminal and he should be absolutely ashamed of himself.

They tell the employees that they’re filming a documentary, training video, “day in the life of”, w/e. Lots of reasons to get cameras involved. Usually in the full episode they explain it.

@@Eric-wk4cg I work in a mattress store and I came in one morning and saw a big body-sized lump under one of the beds. I pulled up the cover and saw my boss. He told me he was an "under the covers" boss. Oh brother... but we had a good laugh over it.

Appreciation.."your working outside of my paycheck, thats not okay. You need to not do that and only make me money." He wouldn't have got that promotion if the boss wasn't greedy and self absorbed. He got that because he wouldn't be "available" to make him more money in an emergency.

@@robert9595 That's one way to look at it. I just got laid off after many years working by a soulless woke company. Its nice to see a company use their power to help you, instead of using it to screw you.

I too hate it when companies have a conscience.

@@robert9595 Imagine calling an employee greedy for giving a man a promotion and a raise, so he doesn’t have to do side work, so that the employer also doesn’t have to worry about him being able to answer emergency service calls. He didn’t tell him not to do it. He gave him the ability to not have to do side work. That’s a good employer response.

@Bourbon Rebel Don't forget giving the guy an advance on his commissions... You know, now you have to keep working for me to work off that money I already gave you...

You got this!

All i have to say to you is, do let your family know how much extra mile you're going for them in a loving way. Just so that they also acknowledge you for the hard work you put in.

The boss is not great. He is aware that his employees are working overtime and doing double jobs. He just choose one guy to show his grattitude but he earns more when the rest still hustling like shit.

No honestly a lot o ceos wouldn’t give promotions like that they would only look for where they are losing money

@@jonathanfigueroa1308 yeah but they'd at least see more the way their employees think and do

Dream on...

@@maximusd26 yeah but in that sense they aren’t looking for how hard working they are they would be looking into what they could be doing better or more efficiently also if they are slacking off

@@jonathanfigueroa1308 yeah that's what I was going for, but not just that, they'd spot faulty equipment, possible invstment zones etc etc. it's a win win it just depends on the lazyness of the higher up people, which we sometimes can't grasp since it's so high

It's cheap advertisement I assume.

That's disgusting. Bloody bosses need to be kneecapped see how they like it.

You do realize that not all business owners are in a position to do things like this for their employees, right? Not saying I agree with an employer not taking an injury into account, but especially for a small business, time is money is not just a cliche. It's the gospel truth. Be angry at the situation all you like, it doesn't change the rule of economics, which governs us all.

Of course this stuff is on TV cause it makes great ratings, and I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of that gift money was fronted by the network. However I know local small business owners that have done similar things on a smaller scale for some of their employees. So it does happen, you just don't hear about it.

I've put my neck out on the chopping block for many guys. A decent human being will recognize potential. If upper management can't see the whole picture, then to hell with them. I'll lose my job to help a good man. There's plenty of work out there.

(they're acting)

A good boss does not pay people so poorly that they can’t afford basic necessities on 60-80hours of weekly pay. I’m absolutely floored at how many of the people watching this do not understand that. The employees do the work that brings in all of the money. The boss is a networker and organizer. Think about what it means for one person to exploit another person to that degree.

@@theonejokeking3191 Regardless of the system, there will always be someone at the top of the pyramid. There are numerous cases where the person at the top worked their way from the bottom, or formed the company to begin with. Also, if an employee is not happy with "being exploited", they should work somewhere else. If they simply can't work somewhere else, it means they didn't adequately prepare themselves for life, or to live within their means. But it's so easy to blame someone else; the world is full of self-proclaimed victims.

@@theonejokeking3191 The boss also has the responsibility for the jobs, pays for the advertising, the office staff, the office rental, utilities, insurance, training/standards, hiring, firing, ensuring employees are competent, licensing, permits, the company vehicles, the equipment, the accounting, all the myriad of other things required to run a business which the employee has no responsibility for. The employer is the one who takes the risks starting with his initial investment and building of the business, creating a customer base, and so forth. The employee supplies LABOR, and takes no risk, bears none of the financial responsibility. There is no "exploitation"- especially since the employee is free to leave for another job at pretty much any time, as well as accept or decline when t hey are offered the position in the first place. If you don't like the pay/compensation you are free to go elsewhere. Your view is so simplistic as to be childish.

@@theonejokeking3191 Joe is paying off debts HE incurred. A boss doesn't need to pay ends meet including self incurred debts. There comes a point of personal responsibility. This boss went the extra mile to help. He's a good boss.

I guess "supervisor" and "boss" are not employees?

Put the last sentence first 😂

Shut up hahaha. Go back and flip some burgers lol

And let’s also acknowledge that, for the boss, this reward is enlightened self-interest. This employee is now going to have nothing but praise for this company to all his colleagues, and will be working harder than ever to motivate them to do better and try harder. This is how companies should be run, but big corporates are dysfunctional and out of touch with the lives of the people they employ. If you want loyalty and commitment, EARN it by taking an interest in and making an equal commitment to, your people!

Fathers and Mothers should be the greatest role models to every kid of theirs.

Jenkins, the poors are actually thanking me for creating a business model that keeps people subservient. Give him a pizza party. Send the police if he grows a brain. Haha, hahahaha, HAHAHAHAHAAHAHA!

Hope you got a better job now.

Sorry man. 😔

I'm sorry! 😔

Maybe- and don’t think I’m attacking you- you didn’t understand the real purpose of that conversation. The way you describe it that “we had been going through changes in our shop,” then the boss’s Number 2 shows up and you “discussed the pros and cons of the changes,” sounds a lot like you misunderstood what was happening. Changes were being made. It wasn’t a discussion they wanted. They came to tell you how things were changing and what the benefits were, and that turned into an apparent discussion of pros and cons, which means you were disagreeing with the direction they planned to take the company in. Or it was the other way and you were carrying out changes that they saw cons in but you argued for the pros. Either way, it sounds a lot like they sent the boss’s right hand man over to make sure you were on board, and you “gave your opinion.” Sorry, but when you’re not in charge sometimes that’s not what they’re looking for. They want an employee, not a business partner. Every employee’s opinion on how the business should be run isn’t that important. If they get let go over it, it probably wasn’t the first time an “opinion” was being shared that your bosses were not happy with. Sometimes, just saying, you have to do what your boss asks without talking back to them.

@@Tmb1112 he asked for our opinions on the changes. and the reality of it was he wanted us to keep between 800-1000 of our products packaged and ready to ship. they are not small products, a pallet would hold 22-30 of them and you can't stack the pallets. the storage area we were given to store those products would only hold about 15 pallets, and was shared with another department. that was the only CON I had mentioned. I wasn't arguing with anything, the only thing I stated was we needed more storage space to keep the number on hand that was desired. And if you're a boss, and you don't want to actually know peoples opinions, then don't ask. I love the company that I had been working for, it was fantastic. The bigger company that bought it was your typical corporate crap everyone has to put up with. Owner promised everyone raises, no one got them, promised stock incentive, never given out, straight up lying to employees. Even made the claim "if you work here for more than ten years I'll make you a millionaire". It is what it is and I'm happier now that I don't have to deal with it. And to the point you were making, yes I know, most bosses just want "yes" men that don't ever question them.

Idk how scripted this show is. I know that the outcomes are real, and I know that some CEOs make genuine changes. When I worked at OfficeDepot, we tried to get the CEO on. Undercover Bosses actually reached out but he declined, then in the next company wide call, he chastised all the bottom line employees for trying to “throw him to the wolves for their 5 minutes of fame” and then took away our bonuses. Great guy

It's staged. Real life employers are motivated to pay less than what their workers are worth because that's how revenue is generated. If a company normally operated like the one in the video, it would go out of business in a hurry.
