    Passive Aggressive Moron

    We had finished serving drinks for the night and were starting to close. I was walking around asking people to finish their drinks and leave. Everyone did so, except for one guy and his wife.

    Me: Hi there, can you finish your drinks and make your way outside please?
    SC: OK, no problem!

    He said that very cheerfully.

    Five minutes later, I return.

    Me: I'm sorry sir, but everyone else has left and I need to lock up. Can you make your way outside now.
    SC: Aw. You've had a long night haven't you?
    Me: I've had better.
    SC: Aw. Well, I suppose it's more important YOU get to go home then isn't it? Never mind that the customer wants to stay, YOU want to go home, so we HAVE to leave.

    He said that very cheerfully as well, but in the most sarcastic tone I have even encountered. He took his wife by the hand and walked out the door.

    SC: I hope you have a nice time at home. We HAVE to go home now because YOU want to go home. So you have a nice night, yeah?
    Me: I will, don't you worry.

    I slammed the door in his face.

    See, he's one of those people who thinks that the waitstaff don't have a life (or a place to sleep...wait, we all know workers don't need sleep!!!) outside of work.

      I know. What REALLY annoyed me about the whole encounter was that he had a HUGE shit eating smile all the way through it. I would have loved to have wiped it off his face.

            Sir, I fail to see whatever miserable pathetic point you are attempting to vocalise.

            Now piss off.
            A PSA, if I may, as well as another.

                  Your response should have been:

                  "Ohhh so you think this world's all about you is it!? You think being the customer turns you into some kinda dictator who doesn't have to care about others trying to do their jobs, do I have that right? Well if you're wanting us to treat you as special we'll be glad to get right on it. We're going to kick you out now and whenever I see you back here, we'll be sure to serve you with at a speed that makes slow motion look like it's on meth. How do you like being treated special now?"

                    I was thinking more along the lines of "Sir, do you usually try that passive aggressive attitude when you don't get what you want, and if so, what is your success rate like?"

                    I almost pulled that one on a customer once... just didn't think of it in time (and yes, I'd say it... what are they going to do to complain?? without sounding like an arsehole...)

                        Wow, what a jackass.

                        Me and my buddy used to close out this one bar all the time. They'd come over a loud speaker and just yell:

                        "We're closing, you got 15 minutes drink up, and get out."

                        15 minutes later you hear:

                        "Time's up! Drink em now! I'm throwing drinks away!"

                        and sure enough, that's exactly what they did!

                          You can go wherever you want, sir. Just not here.
