Its Because I am White.....Isn't It??!!!
Had a guy at work (Lowe's) the other night.....waiting at the Millwork desk to be assisted but our associate was helping another customer.....so as my co-worker approaches the desk with the customer he was with (a couple who happen to be Asian) the guy who was waiting at the desk pitches a fit about how he was there first and how we did not wait on him first because.......and this is where it gets good......."because he was white"!!!   Too Gawd damn funny.....there are alot of freaks out there man!!! Oh...forgot to mention.....me and my co-worker are white.  |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

"No, it's because you're an ass. You can find Home Depot down the street. Good day sir."
Power to you BF. One job I know I would never keep for long is something like retail, waitstaff or any other job that still feels as though "the customer is always right".

The customer is always right.....until they tell me that I'm wrong!
First come, first served!
If you don't ask for help, you usually don't get it!

I am right there with you.
I commended my bank teller last week. Told her it is amazing that every time I come in, she has a smile on her face because I can't stand being in line with these people, let alone having them as customers.
She rolled her eyes and after 5 minutes of venting about the people said "We're starting to get a line. I should get to the next person. Thanks!"
I try to be as kind as possible to people working Customer Service. It's not their fault a company has poor policies, charges fees, a product broke, or the company doesn't stock a product. |

I work within a large company, and one sure-fire way to piss me off is to ask me a question, or for help, and then ask a coworker the same question (looking for a different/better answer).
That person asking the question will never get an answer from me again, except "Sorry, I'm busy".
I REALLY HATE being second-guessed when it's a topic I KNOW.

or the person who asks you to do something
and when you haven't started doing it in a millisecond
they start doing it for you....
that's when strangulation comes to mind.

Ahhh, retail.
Welcome to the wonderful world of retail, Larry  . You end up having many a close encounter with stoopid . A good rule of thumb is, the closer you get to a holiday, the more stoopid they get  . |
