    working checkout lines, i’ve come to the conclusion that the most important freedom in american culture is the freedom to tell someone else they’re doing freedom wrong

    im far too conflict averse to say that to someone’s face, but I have found it shuts down annoying people online

      I can’t be direct and blunt since the job I’m in is totally into positivity including the toxic sort, so theoretically I could say mad shit to people if I could figure out how to cloak it in pure sunshine and rainbows. Being overly sarcastically manically friendly when they’re obviously trying to be an evil bigot or a mere nuisance is the best I can do. My cousin also works with the public and just starts working really slowly when they fuck with him, more he’s fucked with slower he goes, sometimes I do that too especially when they’re mean and in a rush.

        I find cranking up the polite, repeating myself, and lowering the personable works. Although that’s usually when a customer is being rude to other customers.
