Though this guy claimed to know how to do his job, safety wasn't on his list of concerns. That alone should have told his boss that this dude wasn't a good fit for the role.
U/rslashcallousheart had a story to share about the time they worked as a stage hand, setting up stages and equipment for music venues. It's quite the hands-on job, requiring the workers to move heavy equipment not just on the ground, but sometimes high off the ground. These things are so heavy that the workers are required to wear protective gear, such as steel toe capped boots and hard hats.
Maybe some workers think these precautions are annoying or unnecessary, but there's a reason those rules are in place. It's because some other worker got hurt doing that exact same thing before, and now there are rules in place to prevent it from happening again. You always have people who think the rules don't apply to them, as if you can be so good at your job that accidents couldn't happen. At least no one got hurt here!
Next up, this person admitted to going "full Karen mode" on a car dealer who wanted them to pay extra for a tiny stripe of paint on their new vehicle.
