Are you trying to give me a heart attack??

[Food Lady]

Good grief! I don't have a heart problem, but I could. I had to get to the mall very early, so I am in the food court studying on my laptop before I go to work. I have headphones in listening to music also. I was in the middle of a paragraph when some old man walked up behind me and leaned around to ask me something about "pushing the right buttons". I because he startled me and said "Excuse me??"
to which he replied "..don't get excited." You walked up behind me, which was mistake #1. You don't do that to people you don't know! Some people with PTSD would punch you without even thinking about it. Not to mention that yes, I'm in a public place, but it's still rude to be in a position to look at someone's computer screen. Walk up in front of someone and get her attention visually. I can't get away from these people even outside of work. I knew I should've gone upstairs to the tables up there.

After he said not to get excited you should have yelled at him to not sneak the hell up on people wearing headphones. What a jerk.

Should have yelled nice and loud "PERVERT! Stop trying to look down my shirt" Might have taught him a lesson about sneaking behind and leaning around. If not, at least you would have had fun embarrassing his rude rear.
