I used to work at the depot and people would ask me to put sheets of plywood in porches
DavidBrooker
Just pay the $50 for delivery.
jurrdOpPilot
I did that before lol. Felt like a dummy when it became apparent i couldent take it home in accent. Luckily it was before cameras were aboun

Used to work at best buy. My dude this is a daily problem and we offered FREE DELIVERY OVER 55INCHES.
imgurmage
There struggles of best buy warehouse/LP.

I was working Lyft drove a guy to Walmart, he comes out with a TV taller than the car 40 min later. I just left, not working Lyft ever again
Nerxual
55" TV. Thought it *might* fit through trunk of my coupe, with backseats down. Nope. Drove home, called a Taxi Van, went back and got TV.
ShootReborn
Had a customer at Lowe's purchase a range/stove as a carry with. He was driving a Ford 500. Yes, he took it with him.
MediocreMaster
Dude has a Taurus thinking it was a Tardis
KingMagenta
A Ford Taurus can fit the TV in the trunk with the back seats down. Source: I bought a 65 inch TV and used my Taurus to bring it home.
MediocreMaster
Yeah, I used to own a few cars like that too. And the pic shows a Honda. i just picked the name that sounds like Tardis for a joke. lol
Rips4w
It's a HiSense from Walmart. It already doesn't work.
Drmantis84
Hisense has come a long way in the past 5 years.
meltedfaceguy
Hahaha they usually are shit but Hey I have had one those in my guest bedroom for years and it's still kickin
AlaskanX
Well yeah, if it gets used a couple times a year it’s going to last
LyricChae
I’ve had a HiSemse for like seven years. Still works fine, like new. A little dusty but that’s my fault. ? Had to replace the remote tho.
LyricChae
(2) I dropped a notebook between the bed and the wall one day and rolled over onto my knee on top of the remote and cracked it in half.
MRatClan
Stand around watching a guy figure how this fit for an hour....better than helping customers in the store
arkadun
I saw a lady loss her shit at the employee who brought the tv out because it wouldn't fit in her car. "Do 65in tvs come smaller?"
razgriz8712
Nothing more fun than trying to fit an assembled patio set into a Prius.
Dinos91
That's why I measured my car before I bought a tv, 55" was the max
CreigerRykov
Friend of a friend strapped a hot tub to the roof of his '92 Civic. Was fine until the first time he stopped suddenly.
reverendmalerik
Customer come into Argos and bought a shed. Asked what bay her car was in. She said her husband would carry it. "Madam it is a building".
Craizie
Similar experience as a home depot lot loader. Guy handed me a receipt for a pallet and then pointed to his S10 pick up. Wheels fell off.
meltedfaceguy
That poor Chevy
MisterLemons
My experience was with a 1500 van; insisted the full still wrapped pallet of 60lb concrete bags would be fine. The thing didn't move at all.

Some days you just want to get in your car and go home and never come back from your lunch break.
thatlazylizard
Here in aus i use to sell tvs and even the richest cunts wont pay for delivery and insist the tv will fit in cars smaller than this one here
imgurmage
Use to do stuff like this when I worked at best buy. Try fitting a 65" plasma that had to stay upright in a little Toyota sedan.
Riorach
My store handed people measuring tape because of the amount of people who said “just strap it on top”.
7CentsVern
I started asking if they brought a truck or van. Laid down so many tvs surprisingly none got returned
CrimsonCrusaderCore
I can schedule delivery or you can try to force it. If it gets damaged by force we will use the lot cameras to deny your return. Your choice
archaholic
I remember putting a huge TV into a convertible back when I worked at Best Buy and praying it didn't fly out of the car into traffic
JackAxton
I worked AP and got roped in to loading that shit all the time. You get to see some questionable loads and optimistic people.
MBdub210
AP? Advanced Placement? Associated Press?
imgurmage
Asset protection?
JackAxton
Aye, the damn yellow shirt and all.
JackAxton
Asset Protection, sorry, for the Best Buy crowd in this section.
nervesatme
I remember before leaving Best Buy they started a rule if over x" you need a SUV or truck.
imgurmage
Pfft I wish they had that rule when I worked there. I spent so long wrapping TVs in bubble wrap and stretch wrap to load them into tiny cars
PapiChuloNumeroUno
Why even bother with that? Once you leave the store doors, it shouldnt be their problem how you plan on getting it home.
PapiChuloNumeroUno
Most if not all big chain stores that sell these offer delivery for a fee.
ifihadhandcuffs
I see your point, but people would break them trying to cram them in a car. Then they could just exchange for a new one.
Exceptionelli
How do you exchange a device you broke yourself for a new one but don't have universal health care? So weird.
Aldante92
Because electronics are worth more to America's upper class than other Americans are.

I recently sold a bed I had, which had a solid wooden base. After giving dimensions and her bartering down, she asked if it would into >
cardinal29
Don't get me started on the people who sell furniture on Facebook Marketplace and don't put the measurements! ?
parkydiver
I gave all measurements, but to be honest, a king single (2m+ long) solid wood bed base will not fit inside any standard car boot

Hey myself and 2 guys helped bring one of those long wooden foldable tables home in a geo storm! The guy from staples was beside himself
Onlyhereforthelaughs
Easy, I tell them I am paid to try. It doesn't fit. They insist it will fit if we remove it from the box. I say it won't, but go along. -
Onlyhereforthelaughs
It doesn't fit. I say we can hold the item for 24hrs, or he can go in and buy ratchet straps and put it on the roof.
Onlyhereforthelaughs
I once heard a guy DUCT TAPED an unboxed TV to the roof of his car. I'm paid by the hour, and it's not my TV.
Haraiman719
I deal with stuff like this daily.

I used to load 42" flat screen CRT's into VW's & Miata's. I know that pain. Once a guy had to leave his wife there & come back for her.
Arcticstorm141
Dude bought a desk, I helped take it out, manager and I see him open the back hatch of some tiny ass car like a geo metro

What? People irritated with someone who is so self-absorbed they don’t recognize when they’re making a colossal mistake?
PropainAndPropainAccesories
That just sounds like being an American??
jabike2424
That’s accurate.
Haraiman719
Being irritated by people who don’t measure before they buy.

Worked at Kmart. Same thing happened daily. People would buy full patio sets expecting to wedge it into their 4door car
yifin
Had that last year with a giant porch swing & a prius. They finally gave up & rented a truck from uhaul to drive it home.
JoeT85
Walmart here, the worst was at Tax time, even worse than black Friday or Christmas

Kmart, now thats a name I havent heard in a long time.

Right? It was about as fun as it sounds

FlippedOut
Australia is currently getting rid of targets and replacing them with Kmarts.
GoodNews
My local Target is leaving but it’s not being replaced by a Kmart, I was devastated to hear that. Target blows
Sabertron14
Weird, seems like the opposite is happening here. All the kmarts are empty buildings while targets are getting bigger and nicer.

Big push for Targets in Canada, they didn’t last a year

the worst is when people in tiny little trucks insist that it'll be fine when you load a pallet of concrete into the bed
robcod
When wood pellets were popular people where putting 1 ton pallets on and in things that could not take it. Good times
IDoPictureStuff
I absolutely LOVE when I get to see shit like that irl. Just stand back and think "well that's bold strategy Cotton".
JohnThatcher
Moved yd^3 sand split between a Colorado and Harbor Freight trailer once. Technically within spec, but still sketchy. Shit's heavy, yo.
Jemmos
I had my boss make up a waiver form for stuff like this. This was 15 years ago, and 2 owners since. It's still in use. I crushed 3 f-150s
NullUser20
Know your payload people. There is literally a sticker on your driver door jamb that tells you this.

The one time I overloaded my pickup I needed to move a cubic yard of sand. Split it half/half between the bed and a Harbor Freight trailer.
erischilde
It's amazing sometimes how small volume can be against huge mass. Bought a little bag of backyard sand almost wrecked my back.
JohnThatcher
It was an early-model Chevy Colorado. Technically within spec (I checked first), but the bump-stops thought otherwise.
CosmicBrownie95
Lol I literally just watched WhistlinDiesel on yt do this to a Toyota hilux except it actually held its own.
meltedfaceguy
Toyota Hilux pickup is one of best vehicles all time I am not surprised. Ever seen the top gear episode where they try and destroy, but nope
TheobromineAddict

NICE yeah this shows the tail end of his triade against the loader operator. There's a longer version where the loader warns him before hand

and gets chewed out at length for it. Thanks for posting this though !

Once lost a job with a similar situation. Brought out a play structure to a women’s economy car. She looks at me after getting to her car...
MrWolfwood
I had a guy tell me not to scratch his truck with the rhino covering.....like dude why the fuck do you own a truck to haul shit
fosul
I have a pickup with a liner inside, just straight up toss that shit in there, fam.
BrdCdn
That's why you get the liner haha. Most people driving trucks really should own a small SUV or car.
blockberd
But they need to compensate for their peepee
BrdCdn
Yes, gotta put lift kits too to really make up for it and remove any of the functionality from the truck.
BurnieCinders
People who are sensitive about their truck bed, like, do you leave the wrapper on your hammer?
Alex1514
Guaranteed people like that have never touched a hammer before.
