So about a month ago I must say I was offended for the first time in my life! By some crazy homeless person no less! Now let's back up and let me just say that I am not easily offended, AT ALL! I have very thick skin (compliments of mom and dad) so when people say extremely ignorant things to me or around me, I rarely pay them mind or take offense. This lady was different because she was oh so rude. I loathe rude people!! So the convo with this lady went like this:
Me: Hello welcome to 1st Presbyterian Church, how may I help you??
Crazy Homeless Lady: Yes when are the services held?
Me: We have 3 services on Sunday, 2 traditional and 1 contemporary. They are at 8:00 and 11:00. The contemporary is at 10:45
CHL: Wait slow down and say that again!
Me: We have 3 services on Sunday, 2 traditional and 1 contemporary. They are at 8:00 and 11:00. The contemporary is at 10:45
CHL: (With a rude tone) Ok ok ok Just say 2 services one at 8:00 and 11:00 that's all you have to say! Do you have global missions here??
Me: Yes we do
CHL: Are you from one of those countries?
Me: NO! I'm an American
CHL: Are you sure?
Me: Yeah, are you?? (In a rude tone)
CHL: Do you know who the Spurs are?
Me: (A WTF look on my face)
CHL: One Name Tim Duncan
Then she walked down the stairs and left. I've called a lot of crazy things in my life, but her sheer ignorance really pissed me off! Thanks the Lord above that I was working at a church, I had to catch myself and bite my tongue!
Speaking of rude people! I was at Chick-fil-a the other night waiting in line to order when an lady walks in and slams her drink down. I'm looking at her thinking, "I hope you don't think you getting in front of me because Chick-fil-a is my weekly crack fix and I will fight you!" One of the worker must have sensed this or they are just very good with customer service (probably the latter) and came to her aide and asked what they could do for her.
Well she then told them that those in the drive thru gave her the wrong drink and now she's late for work. The employee apologized, gave her the correct drink she ordered then offered her a free brownie for her troubles.
Instead if taking the delicious brownie, she snatched the drink and walked out! I was very tempted to tell her how rude she was, but decided that fighting in Chick-fil-a would not be very lady or Christ like! And that I really wanted my nuggets more than anything!!
Honestly, it YOUR fault you are late, if you had taken the time to leave early enough to go get food and go to work, you wouldn't be late now would you! Don't get mad at them because you suck at time management. Besides you needed that Diet Tea more than that Diet Dr. Pepper!
Ok and I'm done with my rant, of course til the next silly person comes along!
