I didn/'/t realize this happens; how annoying.
A friend once told me that every job has its downside and that is why they call it work, and why they pay us for doing it!
Hats off to those who can deal directly with the public every day (bartenders, waiters, salesmen, doctors)! We can/'/t do without them...
I am going to make a point of being kind to service folks, after reading your poem. You have my attention!

Ah, the joys of a retail position. I have a few friends that have dealt with this too many times. I’ll admit that you gave me a good laugh here. Take care and I hope people living in La La Land that get to you too much,
