when i worked at home depot (and i had the power/support to cause trouble and get away with it) we had a woman leave her child in the car, in the loading zone, come in during a very busy time and demand help unloading lumber and to be put in the front of the rather long returns line because her "child is in the car so [she] is in a hurry."
me: no. side note-keep in mind i am just a nobody in the company with no power to make what i call command decsions
her: you have to because i can't leave my kid in the car
me: then don't. act like you love your kid for once
her: i have to return this stuff and i need help
at this point a group of associates is gathering behind me announcing support for me
me: there is no way in hell anyone here is going to help you with anything. i will guarantee this.
her: *huffs and puffs and storms out of the building pissed off not to be seen again*
me: i f'n thought so b***h
fortunately no one complained so i didn't get in any trouble even though the supervisor that heard it officially had to disapprove. he just pretended he heard nothing.
