[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He sounds hilarious!

I would have laughed every step of the way and asked if I was on a hidden camera show. If he didn't laugh and loosen up, then I probably would have sunk to his level and said something like:

"Dude, I know it sucks to be a cashier when you are a grown ass man, [b]but you have no one to blame for your lot in life except yourself.[/b] And you're damn lucky I feel sorry for you so I won't report this to your boss."[/quote]

OMG.  How patronizing are you?  You have no idea what his story is.  I had a master's degree when I worked at a bookstore.  Sure, he's rude, keep it at  that.  You sound like a Republican.  Gross.[/quote]

Actually, I'm a bleeding heart liberal who firmly believes that every job is honorable if you do it well. Truly.

But this guy isn't doing his job well. He clearly has a chip on his soldier as evidenced by his completely inappropriate behavior. I most certainly would not pick a fight with anyone--let alone a rude cashier--but like I said before, I would proactively try to play along and diffuse the situation with humor...but would likely say something if he didn't come around. What's wrong with that, pp?

Fwiw: I actually work in the anti-poverty advocacy arena, and I can assure you that you aren't doing anyone a favor by enabling their victimhood. People need to take responsibility for their actions and recognize that they are the only ones capable of improving their situation.

In the real world it's not okay to be an asshole because you have a crummy job or shit going on in your life. Period. [/quote]

Barf.  Could you be more sanctimonious?  Like I said, you have NO idea why he's working at TJ's at that very moment.  He could be a laid off engineer.  He could have had to move home to care for his sick parent, and needed some cash flow.  He could be an adjunct professor at a university who makes very little.  YOU have no idea.  So yes, say that he's an asshole.  Say that he's rude.  But don't even PRETEND that you know about his life and his "choices," all of which could have been the "right" ones.  [/quote]

???

If the rude cashier hates his job, he is the only person equipped to address that issue.

He applied for and accepted the position. If his job makes him so miserable that he's berating customers then only he can change his situation.

You people are assigning malicious intent that simply isn't printed in the post. Where am I criticizing his education level, intellect or criminal history??? Um, nowhere. Rather, I'm simply putting the responsibility on him. He chose the job and he's choosing to be an asshole...and that's not okay.

Give it up, PP.

This forum has the biggest group of enablers around. Anytime you mention self-responsibility, you get slammed.  And I say this as a Liberal.

[b]Dude was rude. That's the bottom line.[/b]  If I'm rude in my job, I get slammed, and trust me when I say there are hundreds out there who could replace me.  [/quote]

Right.  That's agree upon, and that's what I was saying.  But why PP has to pretend to know about his life is beyond me. [/quote]
