Oh well, their loss Larry, I guess they don't know a hard worker when they see it, but they have rules. Can't say as I blame you for losing it a bit , the guy showed you zero respect and you took it up to your breaking point. Referring to him as an ahole within earshot you must have known he would rat you out.

Now you can get that job at Dunkin Donuts you've been waiting for and show them how it's done

have a great vacation big guy

Wow, just saw this. Sorry to hear you lost your job, Larry. When you deal with the public all the time, you'll end up meeting some real a**holes . It's worse for me, as I'm a supervisor, and have to deal with the rude obnoxious customers that my employees can't deal with. Rule of thumb is not to talk back to them. I've learned to hold my tongue. I don't let them get the satisfaction of getting a rise out of me. Nothing gets them madder than when I point out that the customer may not always be right (with a straight face and without insulting them ). Hope it all works out for you.

Sorry to hear the news. You can stand tall (not a problem, having seen you) knowing you stood up for your principles. You'll get through this and look back on it proudly. I hope to go out in a blaze of glory and expletives when the day comes. People just don't respect eachother any more. We're all fed up, even those with good paying jobs. Too bad we don't often get a mulligan for having a bad day with a short fuse.

Does anyone know the difference in collecting unemployment when it comes to quitting vs getting fired?
