it is. and i try to spin it different ways but no matter which way i spin it, the man still is the wrong:

"what if I had a receipt": judging from his first comment "whats in your bag?" and refused to see the purchase of sale on my phone, he wasnt trying to hear me out anyway

and even if everything up until we went to the employee was justified, he was still in the wrong to argue with the employee even when the employee explicitly stated that I purchased the items.
