Dissed at Wal-Mart

So I go to Wal-Mart today to get some new passport photos so that I can renew my Canadian passport. While I'm in there, there's this crazy black woman yelling and hollering and just generally making a scene about how she had a problem with the service and that she felt disrespected. Arms waving, head shaking, everything.

"With all these colors up in here, I am feelin terribly disrespected..."

Now, it's almost as if this woman has never EVER been to Wal-Mart before in her life. They don't pay people at Wal-Mart enough to be helpful or to generally care what you have to say. People at Wal-Mart don't care about you whether you're White, Yellow, Brown, Black, Purple, Green, or Blue. (Especially if you're blue because then there's liability assocaiated with helping you). Playing the race card is totally ridiculous and absurd in this case.

"...I want that woman fired!..."

Get a frickin life lady. If you have a problem, you can be discrete about it and ask to speak to the manager in a civilized manner. You just look like an idiot. You aren't entitled to special treatment just because you are black, white, yellow, etc... so don't expect it. Frankly, acting like it's the most horrible thing that's ever happened to you in Wal-Mart actually makes people respect you less.

I got my photos and got outta there.
