I was crossing at a crosswalk half a block from my house which I have done a hundred times. There's no light, just the crosswalk. I saw a car coming, but it was not so close and even though pedestrians have the right of way and it is LAW that cars stop if the pedestrian has only STEPPED OFF THE CURB, I figured I'd pretty much clear the street by the time she got to the crosswalk. So I have CROSSED the street fully, and this car comes whizzing up honking. So I turn to look at her. And she comes to almost a FULL STOP in order to say BITCH right into my face Is this sane behavior? So I point to the crosswalk. And as she speeds away she gives me I am STILL shocked by this. I'm a sensitive person and that's not nice. I took the bus from a street corner I had never taken it from before. It was a T intersection so I expected the light to turn green and I started into the intersection when I saw the opposite light turn red. There was a green arrow for the right turn, which I didn't realize would be there. Anyway, I am 1 step from the curb and this stupid ass lady comes driving up in the lane and panics like I just threw myself under her wheels! She pokes her head out and points to the green light and starts yelling. As she drove off, in ultimate ghetto loudness I told her F you, you stupid C! I feel your pain See? That's it! There's no room for benefit of the doubt, human error anymore. I've done things like that too. In San Francisco, you have to be 100% on top of everything or some a-hole will attack. In this case, however, I didn't even make an error. I had actually crossed the street before she even got to me. It's like she just needed to dump on someone and I happened to be that person. | |

That's impressive! But maybe he should have assured you that the employees would be treated fairly, rather than kissing up to you as a customer? | |

I can't understand the harm in giving whether the man was blind or not. To give away some change is not gonna hurt. But then again I've been blessed with money and a heart. | |

Oh, I'm sure the manager did get talked to, that's probably how he knew about her problems. Facebook, I haz it - https://www.facebook.com/Nikster1969

He always starts off his speech saying he doesn't use the money for drugs or alcohol and could people please help him. Sometimes to prove he's blind, he'll pull the fake eyes out of his head and stand there with the open eye holes.
So he gets on and is asking for money and these two women are in front of me. One asks if he's really blind and the other one says "Yes, he's blind! He pulled out his eyes in front of my kid! Oh my God, it was disgusting! Why they hell are you gonna do that in front of kids?!" Then the other lady asks "Does he do anything special for the money"? I honestly wanted to crack both their heads together. I said "well considering that he has no eyeballs, his being able to actually make it to the train and walk the streets without eyesight should be special enough". Stupid witch just looked at me incredulously People are so jaded that their biggest concerns is their own sensitivity and that someone should perform circus tricks in order to gain their help. I would've interjected twice: Dumb Twat: Why they hell are you gonna do that in front of kids?!" Me: Well, in all fairness, he probably didn't see them. Dumb Twat's Twatty Friend:Does he do anything special for the money? Me: OMG! Sometimes he brings an extra eyeball and he juggles! This is why I'm not allowed in public by myself.

I agree, the manager should not be taking her personal marital issues out on her employees, especially employees who are just learning their job. That is inexcusable, in every sense of the word. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |
