Dear cantankerous old bastard, You don’t intimidate me when you come into the cafe asking/ testing me on menu items while staring me down and rolling your eyes. I’m so sorry that I referred to vegetables as veggies.. That seemed to really bother you..but I guess that’s just what “Kids these days” call them. (I know that you know what veggies are, asshole). Why don’t you go sharpen that stick up your ass a little more.

Perhaps if you had eaten more veggies/vegetables in your formative years you wouldn’t be such a miserable little snot and would have done better at school and not have to work at such a menial job?
I don’t think the OP’s the problem here, BF. Getting pissy at someone because they referred to vegetables as “veggies” is just fucked up.
Sure there’s a lot of shitty CSRs out there, but there are even more shitty customers.
“Perhaps if you had eaten more veggies/vegetables in your formative years you wouldn’t be such a miserable little snot and would have done better at school and not have to work at such a menial job?”
You’re a fucking idiot. I can’t stress that enough.
OP – don’t let shitheads ruin your day.
Some fucking old stink-eyed jerk came up to my bro (who is retired and works retail) one night and railed on and on ad nausem about young people being lazy, dumb fucks et al – my bro hauled out his ipod shuffle and replied: “I’d like to see your generation try to fit 400 songs on something the size of this, pal.”
Wow….menial job? Seriously? And do you think that every college/university student or graduate gets a dream job in their chosen field right away? I bet you think your pooh smells like roses, too.
How do you think a lot of students put themselves through school? By working so-called “menial jobs” serving assholes like you. I have learned more about my strength of character working at those part-time jobs serving inconsiderate jack-asses than any desk job could ever teach me.
Simply put, never make assumptions about the intelligence of the person behind the counter serving you.
So true Bawls…
I used to love it when people would talk down to me while working through school, little did they know I likely had more education then they did. I just figured if I ended up being their superior some day I’d get the last laugh…
Logic…you already were superior if retaliating with rude behaviour was beneath you. There’s a lot to be said for taking the high road.
As the old Scottish song goes…
“you tak the high road and I’ll tak the low road an I’ll be in retirement afore ye”
nothing more annoying than foodies on a mission to prove their foodieness ;i fuckn love it because i look like a dumbass so they come up to me and.. scuse me fella do you have endive and i’m like ahh belgian or curly and if your looking for belgian i don’t think we do so i would go with raddichio you’ll get the same kinda flavour your after asshole ah i mean sir/madam
