I was queueing for a beer behind the Kop and observed this bloke being an arsehole to the staff behind the bar. He'd queued up to get a pint and when they said they couldn't give him one at that hatch, and that he'd have to queue elsewhere to get served, he started shouting and swearing at them. It was pretty unpleasant, the bloke was at least 35 (old enough to know better) and spitting out expletives at young people almost half his age. They just had to stand there and take it. It was really pathetic and childish. People around him were laughing, but it was that nervous "what the fuck!?" kind of laughing.
Mate. I get it. Some rules in this world don't make sense. I know it's daft that they can't serve you at that hatch, I know it's illogical and I know it makes no sense that you have to queue elsewhere to get what you want, even though it's the same bar. But you know those young folks who work there? They have absolutely no control over that. So shouting, swearing and generally being a nasty prick is going to do nothing, apart from make their afternoon more stressful and harder than it already is.
They've given up their spare time to serve entitled knobheads like you for a couple of hours every other weekend for a very small amount of money. The least you can do is offer them some common courtesy. I saw you bragging to your mates about slamming the money down on the counter after shouting at these poor people. What did that achieve? Do you feel good, being horrible to people who are just doing their job? Was it really worth all the aggro? Oh no! You only get 7 pints today, instead of 8. What a fucking tragedy.
I work in customer service, and I'm telling you, we want to help you. We want to give you the best possible solution. But it's a two way street, and you have to help us out. All you have to do is be civil. We know it's daft. We know it makes no sense. But we have no control over it. Please understand that, and don't shout at the nice fresh faced students who just wanna make a few extra quid. Don't be a cunt, mate. That's all.
