How would you react to the scenario bellow?

I consider myself to be a pretty patient guy, but there's virtually no situation in which I'd wait 40 minutes in a store just to buy something. 10-15 minutes maybe, then I'd leave and come back later when it's less busy.

I can't think of a single store that would require a 40-minute wait, though.
 
I'd probably have walked out of your store long before it got to the point of the idiot at the register, but if it was the only option I had and I didn't want to wait for an online sale/delivery, then I'd have yelled and hollered at you until you felt about 2 inches tall, PLUS, I'd have yelled at the manager for hiring such a fucking idiot.

When you get down to the basics, all a B&M store really has to offer is customer service and no waiting for delivery. The internet sellers usually offer better prices and a wider variety of goods. If you can't offer GOOD customer service, why the fuck should anyone do business with your store?


BTW...

Patience my ass...I'm gonna kill something.

Just remember this is a hypothetical situation 😛 My store wasn't like that. ()🙂
 
I'll add I'd never return to the store either.

if it came down to it, i'm thinking boomer would tear you up quite handily. most people i know that have been in the military, including the woman, would put you down in your place real quick talking like that. not that you'd ever have the balls to man up and talk shit to someone's face. 🙄

AHAHAHAHAHA, not an e-thug, just an e-thug's e-buddy, making sure his e-friends e-feelings aren't hurt.

PS: <------- in the military.
 
So you throw a tantrum like a petulant child in order to make the store assistant (who is just trying to do his job given the circumstances) feel small eg to make you feel like a man? Wow, you're quite a little bitch. No wonder your life is a train wreck.

Weren't you in the military? Show's what little pussies the US military churns out, eh.

Mike,..., this isn't going to end well is it?
