This weekend i was part of a large team trying to get 1500 students moved into one student housing site over 2 days, so everybody is rushing, stressed and the place is noisy. Also i don't get paid for this, we weren't even given the same free drinks and lunhes as the "adult" helpers because they were being paid.
All i needed from people was their name and room number (and letter) i check spellings of pretty much every name and every room letter, P,B,V,D all sound very similiar.
ME:me
Girl: quiet 18 year old
BFH: Bitch From Hell, Mother of girl who decided that she shouldn't have to deal with the likes of me.
ME: Hi there can i just take your name and room number please?
Girl: Charlotte bare (pronouced the same as bear, beare, behr, etc)
ME: can you spell your last name for me please?
BFH & girl talk over themselves giving me the spelling
ME: Beare?
BFH: No we never said two Es lose the extra E! (The extra E i assume to mean the second one, i was wrong but other people during the weekend used the word extra to mean the last letter)
ME: Sorry, so BEAR?
BFH: NO! B A R E! U R AT U-NI-VER-SIT-EEE NOW (Actually pronouncing it like that very slowly and deliberatly) U NEED TO LEARN TO SPELL!!!
At this point the other people around are staring at the outburstand seeing how i was going to respond, i am proud of myself though i just directed any further questions to her daughter.
Afterwards she became a hot topic of conversation and the top suggestions for my response are as follows
Lamp her
U R A BITCH
Punch her
Refuse to continue
I'm dyslexic, i will not stand for you insulting my disability, we have all your contact details for my lawyer
Smack her
