When people spend 10 minutes yelling at me at the pharmacy counter about their $50 copay. Sir, we don't set your damn copays - go yell at your employer and insurance company for having a crappy insurance plan!!!!

Ok, I needed to get that out.

Seen a guy the other week at the local Smart & Final store. He was in front of me in line and all he had was a 1 gallon tub of vanilla ice cream. The guy wrote a check and handed it to the cashier. After a few minutes, the cashier hands him back the check & he walks off without the ice cream.
I ask her what was that all about. Seems his check for $3.27 wouldn't clear due to insufficient funds.
Amazing....

Maybe seeing it in the bag made the customer think that the food came from the internet.

Now I know where the drug hookup is at!

You should see how many times I get yelled at because it was MY fault that the citizen broke the law or it wasn't them it was the car behind them. At least once everyday that I work I hear an excuse and/or get yelled at.

I'm just not amazed any more.
I do enjoy human watching, and I'm a great fan of the human condition.
I feel fortunate that the entertainment will never end.

THen you really can't blame him. Taco bell bought at the actual location is gourmet while the internet Taco Bells use piles of meat and lettuce from the floor that is not otherwise sent to the "B&M Taco Bells". I can see his point.

I've found that yelling at the officer always works wonders.

I had to sit in revocation court a few months ago. I went as a character witness but never had to speak.
While I was there I got to hear a never-ending stream of stupidity that bordered on retardation. I thought "Dood, you've had months to craft a lie. Couldn't you at least have enough respect for the judge's intelligence to get some help making up your lie?"
Just when I thought I'd heard the worst lie I ever heard, the next knucklehead would step up and do one better.
How you guys stand it, I'll never know.

People who to go a fast food joint and stare at the menu for 10min considering the fact that it really hasn't changed to much over the last few months.

People who biggie size/super size their combo meal and then ask for diet coke.

How about a National Guard soldier who is standing around for crowd control during the Boston Marathon and while I get to mile 16 by foot I hear him say to someone..."Man..I'm tired"

I take offense to that one.

Type 1 diabetic... not type 2. I like to put my carbs where it counts and that isn't in a regular soft drinks

So when I'm hungry... damn right I'll order a biggie size with a diet coke

I hate to go on a 911 call and the person is not in any distress at all and wants us to transport them anyhow because they "will get to see the doctor quicker if I go by ambulance". Matter of fact our other truck is on the way to a call right now where the chief complaint is irritation after swallowing approximately one mouthful of Pinesol.

oh my, where do I begin. Working in the tax business for 16 years, I have seen it all.

"No ma'am, we're not the IRS, we don;t set the rules."
"I'm sorry ma'am, your dog is not really a dependent."
"I'm sorry your husband is an a$$, but if you're married, you still have to file a joint return."

Been yelled at, threatened, had papers tossed at me. Broke my hand once after a client hung up on me because I'd had it.

Oh the stories I could tell over stogies and a gin & tonic...
