I am a manager for a store (NOT VERIZON, JUST RETAIL) and when I was working with one of my girls on Saturday, so ran and got lunch and brought it back to the store....
When returning the store was busy, but she still went to eat. A customer was yelling that there was more employees, so she got up out of her seat with her sandwich, pulled the two 1/2 of bread apart, and smashed it on his shirt... and said "There, now I'm done with lunch, can I help you?!?!"
I was stunned, he didn't know what to say, and left, not saying a word... Of course, I had to be like all manager like and say something, but let me tell you, inside, I was laughing my ass off...
