Yesterday I greeted a couple of customers with a genuine smile. Then I heard what they were talking about. Scamming. But then, no, not scamming, because I might think they were Nigerian. They should learn some Nigerian words, so they can freak people out and make them think they were scammers. Nigerians are scammers, basically. And then Pidgin English, and how grunting was basically akin to speaking Pidgin English according to them, and how Pidgin English wasn’t a real language, it was like Afrikaans.
It took everything I had not to punch them in the faces with one hand, and call security with the other hand. I had to settle for refusing to serve them. Their racism was ignorant, ill-informed and offensive. Their sheer ignorance about anything they were mouthing off about, actually, made me want to punch them. Especially when, after I heard their racist bullshit and the smile dropped immediately, they started doing the “Ooh, you’ve offended her now, oooh, naughty naughty”. They KNEW they were offensive, and they thought it was FUNNY.
There’s a part of me that really, really hopes that they left my store, tried to cross the street, and walked under a bus. The human race would be better off.
