Some dude in a construction vest comes in complaining that his cell phone isn’t working because he apparently didn’t put enough money on it. He’s on the cheapest prepaid plan you can get, and is griping that he doesn’t have enough money to pay the balance twice.
I take care of it for him and he starts telling me about how rude it is that his coworker is trying to ply him for information. He tells me a story about how some guy came onto his job side and asked how much he made, so he lied to the guy. I told him that wasn’t the best move and that he should absolutely be discussing his wages with his coworkers. He shrugs it off and says “yeah well the boss got mad at me for discussing wages” and I said “of course he did, he wants to be able to screw all of you “ but this guy seemed to think his coworker was in the wrong for asking, then complains that the guy who gave him a ride to the store is doing the same thing and tells me he lied to this guy too. I looked him straight in the eye and said “Well I guess that makes you a class traitor then. You’ve betrayed the trust of the people working beside you and sharing rides with you. That’s not right”
His response was “well I guess there’s no arguing with you then, bye have a great day”
I didn’t reply to him, to indicate that I didn’t really give a flying fuck about what kind of day he has and he actually picked up on it and said “you have a great day too” as if he could force me to be pleasant to him.
