Assaulted with rotten veggies

[MoonCat]

Wow. I think I would have lobbed it back at her. I know, not a good idea, but my gut reaction would have been to throw it right back.

And how the hell is he supposed to know she was talking to him anyway...standing there like a post yelling "Sir!" over and over? Just....wow.

This.

I often want to ask some of my callers if their mother raised them to speak to people that way.

I had almost that exact converstation when I used to be a manager at a grocery store. Except the produce in question was tomatoes.

You may not be my child. Heck, you might even be older than me. But you will not throw produce at my employees, or anyone else for that matter, in my store. It wasn't acceptable to throw food back in the school cafeteria, and it isn't acceptable now. Go cash out and stand in the corner until your taxi picks you up.

Also keep in mind it was late on Saturday afternoon in a busy Volde-Mart supercenter, with produce being right up by the front doors. It's difficult to hear someone right beside you at the best of times, let alone another screeching voice in the crowd. Work there long enough and you'll eventually come to just tune it all out.

"I guess you would know a withered, rotten old fruit when you see one."... would have been my reply.

It would seem we have escalated from attacking people with bananas. I think we need to call in the rotten tomato brigade.

[Geek King]

I think this should have been titled "Assault and Pepper".

You can always count on Sheldonrs for the seasonal humor...

[Kristev]

People, you've got it all wrong.

She's the Super Sorryo Sister, and she thought he was Wart.

But he wasn't, and it takes six veggies to beat him.
