  • / Boy don't suggest someone to put down their phone...
I was at Kroger earlier today when the customer in front was struggling unloading the cart. I notice he had a phone in one hand which was limiting what he could pickup. I suggested putting the phone down for bit until he got cart unloaded. He went ballistic. Just acted like I attacked him so just walk away with him screaming at me. Besides I didn't want to do the paperwork. He didn't realize I was carrying my .357 with hollow points.

Come to find out he was running delivery service but with that attitude I surely would not be using him. Besides grocery are high enough don't need to paying someone to pick up and delivery them.

Personally I was always told guys with this attitude usually have a wife or girlfriend on the rag.

Funny, he wasn't needing to talk on the phone while he was balling you out. His conversation must not have been that important.

Honestly if I was balling someone out and they walked away it would really p'ed me off. You did right thing...

The real question is did he have a man bun?
I had to Quack Quack this one...But the answer is no, just one hell of an invisible chip on his shoulder.

You did the right thing. Catching a charge over someone & their phone wouldn't be worth it. But, if you'd have played your cards right, you might be due a settlement.

How things change for the worse . Now when their cell rings privacy is mandatory , if they are setting down they're up outta that chair like it caught fire and into another room . We were on a party line when i was a kid and if the phone rang everyone listened , including all of the inquisitive neighbor ladies .
Buy the way , our oak phone on the wall No. was 2,5,1,F3 . That is 2 shorts - 1 long - 2 shorts .
I can Xplain that to you kids if necessary .:ROFLMAO:
