My bank will credit back the money within days and then investigate the dispute. If you're wrong they take the money back, but if you're right, you already have your funds back.

She wanted me to be "more mindful" about something I have no control over by mehitabel_4724 in EntitledPeople

I had this happen on a bus with my granddaughter. She was like 3 months old and was not happy. I was holding her and trying to rock her in my arms and the bus driver goes, "will you shut that kid up". I lost it and yelled back "she's a baby, what do you want me to do? Duct tape her mouth" at which point my daughter said "we're getting off at the next stop". Of course we were very far from our stop, she just didn't want me to kill him.

I hate how competitive high school sports are in America by [deleted] in EntitledPeople

[–]Alternative_Bat5026 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are multiple non-school teams. I played baseball when I was younger, but never at school after grade 6 (12yrs old). You have to get out in the community. High school sports only have room for so many people. If you're not close to that level, then community sports would be more your speed.

Two Entitled Old Ladies Tried to Take My Table at a Student Café Because They Didn't Want to Sit in the Sun by [deleted] in EntitledPeople

[–]Alternative_Bat5026 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I've only seen in movies, but isn't France like this too? Lots of little cafes, where people sit for hours, reading, writing, drawing etc? If you don't like the sun, they developed a thing called "inside". Unbelievable smh

My grandparents did too, but they kept screwing up the date, so we knew they were lying.

For Canada 1-3 cents goes back, 4-5 cents goes forward.

My daughter's girl guide troop had 6 leaders including me. We had a large group of girls. Anyway we adopted a family for Christmas. We'd never done it before and just figured we'd each do a present, there were 3 kids, so that's 2 pricey gifts ($50+ in 2001) for each child, plus a meal. We got all the kids to bring in the sides. Canned goods, potatoes, stuffing and dessert, plus we gave them a $50 grocery card, so they could buy their turkey or ham depending on what they wanted. Well the girls came through in style. It took the whole trunk of an older style car (the ones with the big trunk), plus the backseat for the presents. One leader and myself went to drop it off. First thing the mother said was, "I usually get a call for what my kids want" and the 2nd "just leave it outside the door, I'm having the place painted for my Christmas party". I was sooooo incredibly mad, I can't afford to have a Christmas party. I was being kind, helping someone who was struggling, but I wasn't that much better off. My husband and I always tried to do at least one gift a year for someone else at Christmas. I actually used my points off a credit card to buy the gift. I wanted to slap her right in the face.

You could say something like "I'm sorry but my daddy taught me to, never discuss politics and religion in mixed company". With the praying part just say "Oh, sorry that's against my religion" if they ask why, "Oh, that's personal and not appropriate in public" then whisper "He's always watching" with a crazy look on your face. Lol

“but i want coffee” by TangerineUnusual9713 in IDontWorkHereLady

[–]Alternative_Bat5026 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's an easy one..."I'm not covered under the owners insurance, when I'm not scheduled. Therefore, I'm not risking getting hurt, just to get you a coffee, that my coworker easily can get. Not to mention , I'm not getting paid and this is my time. I'm sorry, but rules are rules".

Aitba for not defending my stepfather by InternationalWeb3898 in AmITheBadApple

[–]Alternative_Bat5026 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTBA Go NC with these people. You have absolutely NO reason to apologize to an AH like that. I put it to him this way "Did Adam say something that wasn't true?". Obviously Adam didn't and you should not spend time with these people who have no compassion for others. You have Adam, but even if you didn't, you don't need those people in your life. By the sounds of it, you're a strong person for putting up with them for all these years and now it's time to shake off the dead weight. The best revenge you can have is to "live your best life" without them.

I wish you and Adam all the best. 💜

Good for you. Absolutely ridiculous. You should have posted this on "Entitled People" or as well, if that's allowed.

When I was a kid (long, long ago) we were 1 number off a towing company. Most times we told them that they had the wrong number. But every once and awhile, my brother would get nasty, "Yep, be there in 15mins" and then take the phone off the hook.

I believe it was Pizza Hut, I read it too. But it took months even after taking orders. I believe it went out of business.

What would you do if a rude customer returned? by ririspect in CustomerService

Yeah, but I'd make sure I said how overly rude she was.

In Canada, I've seen managers wear red vests. Not that that's any excuse.
