How mean can you get?

My fantasy:

*CRML walks up to SC's table with SC's meal packed in a to-go container*

"Here's your burger meal, BUDDY-BOY! If you can't find the exit fast enough, I'll be more than happy to arrange a courtesy escort for you."

How tall was this guy if he thought you were four feet tall? Everywhere this guy goes he must think he's in munchkinland or something.

What a dumbass. I've had a few uppity like those. That's why I never say Hey pal or friend. Of course, some think that's me being uppity. Well, in that case....they're right =P But anyway I would imagine in a pub the atmosphere is very relaxed...

I need to post an update on this thread.

Guess who just got promoted at the pub?

I am so happy for CW. He deserves it so much.

[Pixilated]

It'll be funny when the SC comes back full of unrighteous superiority and sees that both you and "Sam" are still employed.

Yay! to CW! And to you and your boss for sticking up for him and treating that twit's complaint appropriately!

Has SC ever been back? Would be hilarious to see him come in and not only see the two of you still employed but to learn also that CW was - *gasp* - promoted.

W00T! Yes, he does deserve it. Tell him from us!

[BeenThereDoneThat]

Glad to hear it! Kudos to CW

*laughs* My Drill Sergent used to love being called sir. Because that meant he got to get right in somebodys face and yell "DOES IT LOOK LIKE I DON'T WORK FOR A LIVING?!!"

Did any recruit answer that with "As a lowly recruit, it is my understanding that I am to address anyone who outranks me - meaning everyone except my fellow recruits - as 'Sir'. If the proper form of address for a drill sergent is not 'Sir', please tell me what it is, so I don't repeat this mistake in future"?

I do want to thank you for standing up to the turd for your CW.

Fixed your spelling mistake - at least I hope it was a mistake. Just because someone has a lower-than-normal intelligence is no reason to insult them by equating them to this sucky customer.

I'd love to be a fly on the wall the day that ass of a SC walks into a Dick's Last Resort. I give him thirty seconds before his head explodes.

I am so happy for CW. He deserves it so much.

*@%#ing awesome!

@ Wolfie nope *laughs* but then again most of us knew the rules. Any Non-Commissioned Officer was to be addressed as "Drill Sergent" or by their official rank whatever that happened to be (and you had best know what the stripes on their arms meant). Any officer (Lt, Captain, etc) was a 'sir' regardless of rank, as was any civilian. Regardless of sex as well for officers..Ma'm for female civilians or for female officers who requested such. (ie default was always Sir, unless they said otherwise).

I'd go over the various ranks (which I do remember) but having a bunch of people hitting their heads on the nearest wall would not be fun.

[dakhur]

And there are a thousand ways to pronounce "sir". Only 3 of them politely.

[Tama]

Do you count the southern drawl, "suh"?

YYYYYYESSSSSS!!!!

[MrsEclipse]

Big ol' Congrats for CW!

About that letter... oh boy...

Remember when you were a kid, and you had some siblings, or played with the neighborhood kids? And one day you were being a total brat and you started throwing dirt clods at your sister, so she ran off like a tattletale. Then she came back out, mother in tow, and Mom said, "All right, what's going on here?" And you put on your most innocent face and said, "Why, nothing at all, mother. Me and my dear friend Michael were simply sitting here, playing a game of I Spy, when suddenly my sister came out to play. We invited her to join us for a round, but she said our game was stupid. Then she tripped and fell in the dirt, and accused us of making her fall! You can imagine our surprise at that! She ran off, I suppose to fetch you, and, well, here we are."

Then you got grounded for the rest of the day, because Mom doesn't fall for that shit. It didn't work then, and it's not going to work now.

I'd have taken SC's letter, written "SHOVE IT" on it in red marker and mailed it back to him

I'd have gone the Cleveland Browns (I think) route myself.

I'd have sent him a response stating some asshole was signing his name to stupid complaint letters and he should look into it.
