How to shut down people who are being dicks to service workers
    #25652716 -

This guy infront of me started telling off the cashier at the food store because she didn't immediatley offer him a bag after hes paid. She was calm and got him a bag without saying anything and he keeps going all like "wtf bitch you don't think to give me a bag??" And he keeps going asking for her manager and what her name is and stuff. So I interrupt him saying "excuse me sir?? Your holding up the line I'm trying to pay for my shit." And he turns to me all like "I don't give a fuck, I'm talking!!" And so I put my items on counter in front of him and he's like "you stupid asshole" and he walks away. I apologized to the cashier.

When I got back in my car I started imaging all the better ways I could have made this guy shit pants.

What would you have done?, so I have something really good for next time I see that shit happening

I would have been like “you said you’re talking?  How bout I put my dick in your mouth and fuck what you said” and then I would use my extensive knowledge of Steven Segal movies to break him smooth down..

I was in Subway a bit ago and this guy in front of me in line was berating the Subway workers because they charged him a couple of dollars too much.  He was YELLING at them. 
I finally said to him very sternly, "fix your attitude."  He didn't say anything to me, but he did stop yelling.

obviously you loot the place while the employees are distracted

Only hope can give rise to the emotion we call despair. But it is nearly impossible for a man to try to live without hope, so I guess that leaves Man no choice but to walk around with despair as his companion.

I would have stopped him like you did and said it like it is. Told him he's being ridiculous and to grow the fuck up and then possibly question him as to why the fuck he's acting like a fool

I'm big. Over 6ft tall, 350 lbs, an inch shy of two foot shoulder width. Kind of linebacker-who-let-himself-go. (you prolly saw my pic) Meditation taught me to be completely inert appearing not the least bit concerned no matter what I feel inside, to throw a completely bland attitude even in crisis if I want to, which comes off as sociopathic. 

Usually if I position myself strategically relative to them and the cashier or similar, they decide its a negative sum game and split without a word spoken or aggression thrown towards them.

I call it "passive-nonaggressive". :noyoudidawet:

You're not telegraphing aggression, or fear, or anything, you just stand and observe, seemingly inert. People do positively not want to mess with that. You don't imply aggression, you dont imply anything in fact while you should be intimidated and nervous. It's kinda eerie, artificial, like you're patiently awaiting a legal excuse to escalate.

They don't want to find out. :raisemyglass:

See that’s why I don’t get hot headed anymore.  Used to be back in the day you had in idea of what you were walking into, now you got god knows what kind of training and I’ve known skinny little “nerd” guys who have the exact attitude you mention.  You only get a few passes in life if you’re lucky..

never fuck with people who are irrationally mad to their face. you never know when you're dealing with a genuine psycho or roid rager.


what you do is quietly follow them home and burn their own down while they sleep

Man has issues that he took out on the clerk.  Simple.  He has deeper issues.  When one has worked that or customer service on the phone don't take things personally.  Though I will never be fake.

usually in these type of situations i start to hear the theme song from Rocky playing in my head.  Then i start to hum the song out loud, at which point the situation typically becomes diffused.

Pulling out a gun and pointing it directly to his face might work. The right to bare arms, aimrite?!

Then again, that might be a little too extreme.

I am typically quiet, daydreaming in public but I will speak up in situations such as described in OP.

My go to tactic is to embarrass the asshole with whichever means are available to me, but I focus on remaining as polite as possible.  If they're asking for the manager right off the bat and being unreasonable I'll hang around and say so to the manager and stick up for whoever was getting berated.

If I'm out on a date and the other person isn't polite to the staff, wherever it is, it's done. I can't stand to see people treated like they aren't worthy of manners and a smile.

I can envision blurting out "someone has'nt been laid in a while!".  "Come on now, cum on that cow!".  Even better, it would be a dream to spitball them in the face.  I actually carry a small spitball tube in my shush bag with some napkins i could wad up in a fix.  Hehe.  I do'nt believe that would fly over too well in today's PC society, but can you imagine the hilarity?!  The headline reads "Supermarket brawl ignites after 34 year old man shoots a spitball at another".

I'd just stay out of it. Not worth the confrontation as long as he's not threatening the cashier. Afterwards I'd definitely say something to the Cashier, and tell the Manager to ban that guy from coming back.


Not worth a fight and possible Assault charge confronting an obvious unstable obnoxious dude.

lavod - lol that would be a good one

I suppose if a situation like this occurred and the tools were present I would scribble something down on a small piece of paper. Walk next to the dude, drop it and politely let him know he dropped something. Full of rage, he picks it up and it reads, "I'm a bitch."
By then your already walking out the store and the dudes bewildered and lost his momentum. IDK tho

Thats it!

Some people who act out as assholes are a special kind of people with superficial capacity to morality, remorse and emotion in general, looking for excuses to get in a row. These are exactly the wrong kind of people to confront because its a game of chess to them that they play rationally and with great premeditation.

If you send a passive signal that you might be trouble and potentially, one of them, it becomes an unfruitful endeavor for them to continue, and in such cases they often simply drop the mask of their upset/outrage, which to them was just a tool to act out aggressively but nothing they felt inside on a deep level and walk away as bored as they were.

If someone isn't like that and genuinely upset, you're being unnaturally bold. Why is that? Are you packing heat? A mental patient? ex-MMA fighter? They'll figure "they've got a cave troll!" and not want to provoke you.



No disrespect to anyone but.

Suppose you're in the forest of little red riding hood, you wander off the path to ID some interesting looking mushrooms and find yourself confronted with a big wolf, right before you, snarling viciously at you. The moment you show fear, the wolf closes in, if you run for it, the wolf persues with its superior speed and attacks you in the back. If you however are boldly courageous, the wolf gives up and leaves reluctantly. Physical bulk matters less than the courage in your actions.



Its a pickle: if you show fear you telegraph you are vulnerable to attack and they move in, so precisely when a situation is likely to provoke fear youi must instead try to telegraph an outeward appearance of absence of fear.

Not aggression because they may be looking for exactly that to "retaliate" but, lack of intimidation.
