I am a punk, also a failure.

[RecoveringKinkoid]

Please tell me you are pressing assault charges.

[Pezzle]

How on earth would you keep your cool like that?

I don't do well with people touching me ever... ><

Suggestion: Write to her in prison. On WM brand paper. Ask her if she'd like to insult her guards while at it. Suggest she 'perform the same act on the people watching you that you performed on that nice WM employee.'

Sign it with 'Cause Santa Claus is watching you. HE'S EVERYWHERE. HE'S EVERYWHERE.'

And make sure the guards get a transcript of what she said...

As for the warrants -- Last I checked, they were indeed a matter of Public Record. Libel would only apply if someone said that the *ahem* Lady...had outstanding warrants and she did NOT have any. Slander (spoken)/Libel (written), to the best of my knowledge, require both malice on the part of the speaker/writer AND that the statement in question be untrue.

It's always nice to have a happy ending. It seems like too many stories on here end with the Manager bending over backwards to appease the customer.

[GuardingYourLife]

People who treat others like that puzzle me. Although I agree that she was hardly "rich" and was probably just trying to make herself feel big, there are plenty of upper middle class people who have a similar attitude.
And here's what I don't get:
If person X makes 4, 5, or even 6 or more times as much money as I do, but has a huge debt load, and I manage to support a family by working a "poor person" job, but have no debt and a comfortable level of savings, then who is smarter and better with money?
And people always assume that you are "stuck" in a retail job, rather than choosing a part-time job with flexible hours because you are still in school/have a spouse with a full time income and just need a little extra/do something else from home that isn't quite enough to support you yet, etc.

Great job keeping your cool. I have no idea how you do it. As soon as someone directly insults me, they're gone.

[HappyFun Ball]

The cops come and SC ends up getting arrested for not only her antics descrebed above but for a couple of warrants. She gets banned.

I just love a happy ending!

[depechemodefan]

Wow, she stuck around for the police to show up? She really (in her mind) needed the police to tell you that you suck so she can laugh in your face again? I hope she pissed herself when the police put her in those nice handcuffs.

I'm glad you kept your cool.

There are a few rich people who act this douchy. They want stuff they arn't entitled to; like here in the library the rich,for ex, want us to give them tours of closed areas then start with "I know the mayor/I had lunch with the mayor/etc." when they don't get their way.

Or if they are in some board, like "friends of the library" they expect special treatment. Like use one of the meeting rooms for a function but don't want to pay for it.

But I'm not saying miss pond-scum is rich.

[Jay 2K Winger]

Wow. That bitch must have hit every branch falling out of the Asshole Tree.

I also have this suspicion that she wasn't actually talking to anyone on the phone, and was just trying to further aggravate you into snapping at her, thus vindicating her demand for discounts and freebies and whatnot. Good on you for not responding to her baiting.

And it's always sweet when karma shoves her boot up someone's ass.

[RayvenQ]

What was her warrant, "Wanted for Stupidity & Ignorance" ?

[Grape The Cat]

How did you find out there were warrants out on her? I would think that sort of thing might leave the cops open to libel.

So will you have to appear in court now?

It was in the police blotter-type thing we have in our local paper. I didn't have to appear in court she worked out some sort of plea deal if I remember correctly.

[Food Lady]

All I can say is yaaaaayyyyyyy!!!!

[depechemodefan]

SC: Okay, I want the diapers bagged by themselves. An' I want the cans of dog food in one bag.
Me: Okay, Ma'am.
SC: No. Not ma'am. Do I look old enough to be a ma'am to you?
Me: I'm sorry...
SC: Jesus Christ, you punk, you'd better be sorry! I'll call corporate on you!

I forgot the ma'am thing. Sometimes I'm surprised when someone 30 years older than me calls me "ma'am"; but I never go nuts about it. Again, the woman is bat-shit crazy. Wait, she bought diapers? She reproduced? Poor kid...who will be a budding EW.

[chainedbarista]

SC: Here are my coupons. You be stupid!!

she's the one talking like a moron and you're the stupid one?

if anyone ever needed a hard lesson, it's this particular...um, whatever she is.

[Andara Bledin]

That is what I was thinking as well. But what clinched it for me was the demand for the discount. If she was so rich why demand the employees discount.

In some cases, it's antics like this that get them rich.
