Open Letters to Assholes | In The Powder Room

Ah yes, the second letter particularly reminds me of something recently!

I was at the Dollar Store on Black Friday around 1 p.m. (Yes, I know what that makes me look like, but it was for kids' craft crap only!).  I had quite the load o' crap, but I was basically the only person in the store with my little daughter.  While the clerk was ringing up my *shocking* bill of ~$30 at the Dollar Store, a woman got in line behind me.  (Which by the way, I estimate the entire checkout experience to have lasted only a couple minutes... in no way excessive.)

She started signing loudly and began closing her standing distance into mine, finally invading my personal space to where our arms were all but brushing.  I refused to budge an inch for the B#$@# though, while my daughter loudly started begging for a balloon. 
Paying with Credit/Debit, the machine processing was particularly slow, so she feels the need to tell me, "You know, you have to press the green button."
"I did."
Clerk looks at her and says, "Yeah.... it's the machine."

She doesn't back off an inch, and after the transaction completes she instantly and completely occupies the space by the card-swipe machine before I've even gathered all my bags and stepped away. 

Like, give it up Lady! You go ANYWHERE on Black Friday, you better have your patient pants on especially, and this wasn't exactly the zoo you'd find pretty much anywhere else!

I don't particularly like confrontation, therefore I usually avoid the passive aggression route out of fear of retaliation by such obviously aggressively disturbed people, but man they inspire me to take the direct approach of slapping them!!!
