people.

so, i was at work talking with a customer about his loans and so on. this woman comes in and asks where a certain address is located. i told her that this was the east version of the address she was looking for and that she needed to go a mile west to find the same address. she then proceeded to argue with me that i was wrong. she then asked me to look it up in the phone book, i told her she could do it herself, and this whole entire time she is interrupting my conversation with the customer, who is being very patient. next, she wants to use the office phone, i tell her no, then she says for me to call for her, i tell her no. then she asks me why not, because i'm obviously not doing anything, and then informs me that i am being rude. that's when i lost all patience. i informed her that i was about to get even more rude, and i had been as patient as i was going to be with her questions and that it was now time for her to leave the building. she then tells me that she is not talking to me, and proceeds to question my customer as to the whereabouts of this address. i then announced that i had had enough and that she would be leaving NOW!!. got up and herded her out the door. didn't even touch her, just stepped into her personal bubble, and like everyone else, she backed up. she then informed me that she would never do business with me, and i told her to have a nice day in my fuck you nice voice.

i mean, what was the purpose of that little visit? was she crazy, or did she think that i would let her do all the things she wanted to do in my office?. well she picked the wrong person for that. i will admit, it did take me a little longer for my temper to flair up. i must be mellowing in my old age. or maybe since i have been running the floor at the bar, my tolerance for stupidity is a lot higher. then again maybe not, just last weekend, i had these idiots in the bar, who couldn't seem to remember not to take their damn drinks on the dance floor. don't you know i snatched it right out of their hands. oh well, i can't change the stupid people. guess i will just have to put up with them. but you would think people would get tired of all of them and check into sterilization. i mean really. snarkiness just abounding today. sorry about that.
