So here's the deal...again!
I go into McDonalds close to home. When I walk in , there are about ten people in the store. Two people who are obviuosly together at one register, and one at the other. There is a haphazard line behind them. I go to the rear of the line ,as do the next two people in the door. We are standing there about two minutes when two black girls walk in. One of them looks at me and asks "which line are you in?" I tell her "neither , we are in the order we came in.' She asks again...same question same answer. She walks behind me , the girl with her almost literally walks through me(I mean the left quarter of her body literally hits me and moves me sideways as she waks in front of me to get into the line where the two people are standing at the register). I said "Oh it's like that huh!" She replies " I asked you which line you were in" to which I of course respond "Yeah , and I told you we weren't in either we were in the order in which we came in." We had words several times (same conversation) and then I get the "hand" and a "whatever." Needless to say , even though she heard the whole thing , the black girl at the counter took her order ahead of ten to twelve other people. Several of the others said somethihng about it and she(the cashier) says "I don't see you standin up here.' Typical conversation follows.
This is about the fourth time in the last month that I have had a similar experience with blacks doing similar things in retail situations. Two weeks ago , I go into a parts store and both the clerks are busy. I asked if I needed to be at the register or the help counter to get a water pump. One points and the other says" there"(the help counter) and then goes in back to get parts for the person he is helping. The man at the register finishes with the customer just as another brother walks in and he asks him "what you need?' I asked him " hey , what about me?" He says "what about you?" I told him "you told me to come over here , then you take someone else in front of me , that's bullsh!t." He says " I never told you to go over there." I'm like you pointed".... anyway , the guy(his homeboy) who had come in starts getting an attitude and this guy isn't going to say anything about it. End result was me geting real nasty about him taking his homeboy in front of me. He gets mad and both of them start saying things back to me(not the kind of things you say at work if you know what I mean). His co-worker( neither white or black) comes in and says "he does it all the time. He don't like white people." I ask him if the boss knows about his attitude and he laughs and says" yeah!" I guess his co-worker coming in was the deciding factor , because he asked me what I needed , and the other guy stepped a couple of steps away toward the door. What the hell???? You disrespect a black man like that and see what happens...god forbid if you were to do it to a black woman!!!!!!
