last night's grad nite, I had NO tolerance for those little twerps. I was at Splash photo, and I was just bein the anal retentive, goody-goody CM (because I CAN). Anyway, kid goes over the ropes, and demands to look at his picture. I told him to go back and come through the queue the CORRECT way, not the way that "an accident could happen, and I would have to make the call, and fill out accident reports for being a witness." He goes on to say "well, there was no one in line."
me: I don't care, go back around, and I will let you see your picture
him: why the attitude?
me: what attitude, you're the one not following the rules.
him: you know, you're a f***ing b*tch. .
me: only to people who don't follow rules. . .
he gets helped by another CM, and he tells the CM that I was really rude to him, and. . .
TALKED TO HIM IN A RACIST TONE!!
I heard that part, and asked him what he means by racist. . considering that race was never part of the issue.
him: I just think you're racist.
me: what makes you think so?
him: you just look like someone who has something against mexicans, and you're taking it out on me
me: what makes you think I might not be part mexican?
(i'm 1/2 filipino, 1/2 white, but sometimes i can be mistaken to be of hispanic origin)
him: because you don't have any mexican pride. . .
me: how would i show pride?
him: by letting me just cross the ropes. . .and I didn't go over. . I unhooked the rope, and walked through. . . .
(nope, I saw the left leg go over, followed by the right. . unless he just steps with his knees up to his chest. . .)
but yeah, granted that ropes are there for a reason, is it THAT hard to walk a few more feet, around a couple more corners?
I am not saying Stupidity should be illegal or anything!! But lets just remove the warning labels from hazardous items and let the problem solve itself.Author Unknown
