Rude People

[Cramulus]

One time, I wanted to join the army, so I rang up and told the woman I was a gay African.  She told me to go back to the jungle and do my gay wango tango dance.

The Army is America.
The woman on the phone is Barack Obama
The wango tango dance (with arms below shoulder height) is John McCain.

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.

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 really hate rude people. 

Well, maybe we don't like you, either.

[The Good Reverend Roger]

I would like some of that there Gay Wango Tango, please.

Surpisingly lavendar is a good color for you Roger.... 

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.

I used to pay for food at the supermarket in all coins, until they forced me to goto the coinstar machine first.

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.

I didnt really care

I was a prick about it, since he was the guy that always would pack my bags SOO wrong
eggs DO not go into a bag with freezer items it makes the cardboard soggy

I hate it when things like that happen. That's why I insist on doing the bagging now. Last Thanksgiving, some brilliant bagger decided to put the turkey in the same bag as my eggs and bread, resulting in a bad of crushed bread and a dripping, soupy glop of chicken embryo.

I knew that'd come in handy.

Some people do prefer to not have direct hand-to-hand interaction,

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!

[The Dark Monk]

Me never use pubic restrooms either. Too hairy.
