Oh well, one can dream.
Me: *in my calmest possible voice* Ma'am, physically assaulting this young girl will not make the queue go faster, nor will verbally abusing her. Therefore, I see you have two options. You can either wait patiently in the queue like everyone else, or you can leave and take your business elsewhere before I call the police.'
Oh, and the last time a customer prodded me in the chest with a finger was in 1990 or so. I told him that if he tried that again he'd lose it. May have helped that I had my eye on a knife (which was in a holster taped to the underside of the counter, where he couldn't see it) at the time I said it. He never did try that again, either. I bloody hate being prodded.
(edit for clarification, just so nobody gets uptight: I did not threaten this man with the knife; I didn't touch the knife or refer to it at all. Even so, I think he could see it in my eyes that I was serious. I am not advocating violence.)
