Title: Rude People
Post by: sungoldysue on November 01, 2008, 01:33:13 AM
I really hate rude people.  There are so many realms of rude people that it's hard to know where to start.  I'm a "Peacel, Love and Mungbeans" kinda person and have worked in various jobs.  The thing that annoys me the most is when a person gives money to the cashier and puts it on the counter.  The cashier gives the change to the costomer in their hand (seeing that they have their hand outstretched for the change) but the costomer doesn't see fit to use some common manners to give the cashier the money in their hand.  Double standards or what?

I couldn't agree more with this. Rude people are cunts and I don't mind telling the bastards to their face.

Even if they just look rude I'll give them torrents of abuse. I just feel so strongly about this issue.

Do you think the person is slighting the cashier intentionally?

I don't give a fuck about rude people. If they want to be rude, all the power to them.

Hell, manners and politeness are only yet another veil to try and hide the fact that we are all greedy, selfish, monkeyish tribalists.

Rude people are just more honest about it.

In response to Patrick Goddamn Stewart.  No I don't think that most people do this intentionally but supconsciously I think that they think that they are supperior and don't need to bother with manners, treating people like they would like to be treated.  I wonder how they would respond if the cashier repeatedly put their change on the counter for them to grovel at and pick up if they handed the money to the cashier?  And to the Scarlett Reaper, you may have your glut on my anger and I would still have more to share with anybody else who wishes to partake.

I wouldn't really care. There are ruder things that can be done to you than having a cashier - heaven forbid - handing your money to you indirectly. :/

Suppose those people would prefer you to put the money on the counter and you're the one being rude by handing it to them?

I like to organize my cash on the counter before I put in my wallet.

Maybe you subconsciously think you are superior to people that violate your idea of manners.

Better yet, maybe you subconsciously judge people before they even hand you money. Outside of your awareness you may be behaving (look up micro facial expressions - Paul Ekman) in a way that elicits the money handing behavior that you disapprove of to confirm your earlier judgment of the person in question.

How possible do you think that is?
Title: Re: Rude People
Post by: Mesozoic Mister Nigel on November 02, 2008, 09:20:35 PM
Having spent many years as a cashier, sometimes it IS rude when people put money on the counter. Not always. It depends on how they do it. Tossing a wad of crumpled ones and change on the counter when you're standing right there with your hand out is rude. Sliding a neat stack of money across the counter, or setting it on the counter while the cashier's hands are otherwise occupied, is not rude.

Some people do prefer to not have direct hand-to-hand interaction, and in that case they will not usually stand there with their hand out expecting their change, they will keep their hands down so that you will put their change on the counter instead of in their hands.

Post by: Rhaythe on November 02, 2008, 09:47:38 PM
In most ways I think rudeness is just a matter of perspective. I work in a phone center taking in calls and I get tons of people that from my perspective are extremely rude. But I'm sure they feel justified in how they talk to me.

It used to push my buttons pretty good with people like that. Finally managed to get myself to the point that i don't expect manners from anyone.

Although I still try to maintain basic manners myself most of the time. But that's more for my benefit than theirs.

Post by: Mesozoic Mister Nigel on November 02, 2008, 09:49:43 PM
Well, yes, of course it's a matter of perspective! If you're the center of the universe and everyone else only exists to serve you, then how can it be rude to expect them to get it done already?

If you make a fuss about it, they can't force you to go to the coinstar. Since a lot of those Coinstars force you to pay a fee to convert your money, they can't obligate you to use them, because that would be akin to them obligating you to lose a portion of your money.. Plus, since all money printed by the government declares itself "legal tender for all debts, public and private," every store must take whatever form of legal-tender currency you have available. The only exceptions are, of course, online and over-the-phone orders which have disclaimers about what types of payment may be used.

I routinely pay my grocery bills in all coins, because that's what I usually have. The grocer made a fuss the first few times, but after standing my ground they relented.

Speaking Yiddish would be another dead giveaway too, right?  :wink:

I wish I would have had a similar game when I worked in food service. The only thing I could do to pass the time was make arcane encryptions of the prices of pizza on our menu board. When no one else was in the pizza parlor, I would change the prices, like:

"French Fries: $1" became "$10c^2+2(bit*2)"

Work was never boring after finding the mathematical pack food board inserts.

And to the OP.  I rarely put money in the cashier's hand.  I have arthritis and my hands don't always do what I want and I tend to drop change and such.  As a result, it is much easier for me to lay the money out on the counter.

Maybe back up and look at it from the CUSTOMER's POV and stop being so judgemental.

Very true! I have a guy here at work who doesn't like to be touched or to touch other people. He won't eat in front of other people, and never uses a pubic restroom, even here at work. He is very aware of 'personal space' and won't get near others unless specifically asked to. Very odd.

Nevertheless, rude people piss me off. Like those who are rude to 'underlings' while being civil to 'equals'.

And especially people who continue to talk on their fvkng Bluetooth headsets while also talking with me. I just want to slap that headset right off  and kick their ass!

It's called a grocery list. Sometimes you need things like

Eggs
Milk
Tuna
Bread
Hamburger
Wasp Spray
Drano
etc etc etc

because you need all of those things and making a separate trip to the grocery store for food, then poison, then cleaning supplies does not make sense.
