    "Is [Company] hiring retards now?"

    Some woman said that to my coworker because whatever item she wanted to be on sale wasn't.

    Then, I was talking to one of our regulars who is a manager at an adjacent dept. store (think Craftsman Tools) and some woman complained to him about his "retarded" employees. What do you want to bet it's the same sucktomer, since our stores are right next to each other? They just go from store to store calling people the same names. I really think that's true.

    I'm sure the temptation is very strong to answer "Yes", and then tell the sucktomer how to go about applying.

                The only time I've ever told off another customer in a store involved the use of that word. In this case, the employee in question WAS special needs. The female (I can't call her a lady) walked in just fine under her own power and was bitching about how she was "disabled" and "couldn't get the mart cart out and the _______ won't help me." Well, Bitch (which is what I called her), his mind may not function at what we consider "normal" capacity but he sure is a lot more pleasant to be around than you.

                        Anyone who uses the word 'retard' deserves a slap. Customers throw it around quite a lot and it's just horrible. Just because we work in a shop does NOT make us 'retards'.

                          Back before premium unleaded gasoline became available, people used to retard the ignition timing to get rid of knock. The Mk. 82 Snakeye bomb uses a set of vanes to retard its fall so that shrapnel from the explosion doesn't damage the plane which dropped it from low altitude. Do I deserve a slap for that?

                            ^ No, because you used the word correctly. I can't stand when people use it as a noun.

                              Of course, people who speak French can use the word retard. It means delay.
                              This site proves Corey Taylor right. Man really is a "four letter word."
