Almost got in a fight with a SC

[Crazeyal]

I'm training a new co-worker, and part of that is to get the guy to relax. He's young, around 26, and I just don't want to have him burn out like some of the others. So on the first day I INSIST that we go to breakfast and have a cup of coffee (he has chocolate milk *giggle*) and it's become a bit ofa tradition to goto Waffle House about twice a week.

Out of nowhere comes this huge guy with an attitude from HELL. He starts SCREAMING that all he wanted was a "$%##@ing cup of COFFEE!!" and the people behind the counter were looking at him like he had 3 heads, a goat for a belt buckle and pink lipstick! Seems the 65 year old cook looked at him funny.



I ALMOST got up.

This guy continued his shouting, the staff TRIED to calm him down, to no avail. I knew if I said a damn thing he'd start swinging, and the guy was about 6' 4 with some weight behind him, it would NOT be pretty.

I *REALLY* wanted to tell him to shut the hell up and get out. I would have just made things worse. If he'd even made motions towards teh staff I would have put my foot in his neck. He finally got his coffee and screeched out of the parking lot.

Anyone want to bet if the coffee was Decaf or not??

[Becks]

Ha. Decaf.

BTW, what's wrong with chocolate milk?

[Bright_Star]

Couldn't he have gone to Starbucks?

Couldn't he have gone to Starbucks?

Or perhaps anywhere in a nice fluffy room in a jacket where he can hug himself all day long.

Don't forget the spiffy new "I-love-me" jacket.

Nothin' wrong with it. I suspect she (at least, I think you're a "she"?) was thinking the same think I am - Awww, how cuuuute!

I don't know what it is, but lately I've been finding guys in that 18-25ish age group to be just adorable.

Gah, reminds me of when about a year out of High School, I went into the donut shop whose cashier I had a crush on at the time and ordered, doing my best tough-guy impression, a Strawberry Milk. With a twirly straw.

There is no way to order Strawberry Milk with a twirly straw and come off as masculine at the same time.

[Andara Bledin]

Well, actually, there is only one way to order strawberry milk with a twirly straw and come out not seeming like a momma's boy.

And that's to go in like you don't give a fig what anybody else thinks about you because you're too cool to be sissified by enjoying what others might think is a girly drink.

Damn straight!

There are a lot of wannabe cowboys in this town that frequent the bar I like to go to (bet hot wings in town), and I've gotten the bartenders to double over laughing by bellying up to the bar and saying "Water, double, neat,"* in the same overly serious tones they order their Manly Drinks™ with.

*For those that don't know, ordering a drink 'Neat' means you want it without any ice or other thinning agents... such as Water.
