I said, "I gave you the option of calling someone to clear it." as I was walking out of the door she had to get one last dig in and say, "You'll never be able to do this again" really snotty and I turned right around and went back to the counter (probably scared the hell out of her) and I said, "Did that make you feel better? Well did it? Look beosh (and don't think the other nasty name wasn't on the tip of my toungue) you think this is a pleasure cruise and I'm not humilated enough to have to come in here and do this - after that remark I hope you do lose your f-ing job!"
I understand your frustration, but that's really immature and scary behavior. I hope no one here actually condones that kind of lashing out.

Oh she said a lot more than what I just posted and it was as nasty as nasty gets. I was pleasant enough at first then she copped and attitude with me, which is why I said, "if you can't help me can you get someone who can." A war a words isn't physical violence. I was a customer as far as I was concerned and some of the things she said to me were way out of line. What I said didn't even come close to it. One of those situations where you had to be there to appreciate it.

Not offended at all! I thought "I wonder if Chow was a stand up like this kiddo when he was 7" The little guy was hysterical!

Thursday, you just needed a henchman to do your job I'd have gotten that cash from the library in your stead

By the way, why are you banned from public libraries? You threw a tantrum before and it involved a felony??

I probably was, but I'm sure my jokes have deteriorated since I was 7.

Did you call them to check if they can possibly enroll you in their highly sought wisdom classes?

I called, but those classes were discontinued. All they had available was

"SIERRA - Break-Down Frequency for a High-Maintenance Vehicle"
