    “OK, call the cops.” is what they should have said.

    If you are ever in a situation that you need the cops; it is almost always in your best interest to be the one who calls. Cops are dumb AF and will blindly believe the reporting party unless things are extremely obvious otherwise.

      Yup, the answer is always, “don’t worry, I’ll call them for you.” But only if you absolutely have to call the cops. Otherwise, don’t ever call the cops.

        Yeah, the looney manager was clearly bluffing. I reckon withholding your driving licence would justify calling them. That can’t be legal. I’m kind of baffled why they left it with him in the first place.
