I lost my sht after a customer told me I was an a$$ for asking to see an id for their purchase. I called them a btch and told them to get the f*ck out. I am tired of these entitled aholes coming into the shop thinking they can treat ppl like crap bc they’re buying something. AITA?
Thanks. I really do think of myself as mostly even tempered. I can contain myself in most instances, but my tolerance at getting verbally abused or harassed is way short and I get tunnel vision and react even before I can rationalize what’s happening. I saw in another reply you have experience growing up in an abusive household too and were able to overcome the anger issues. Glad you’re in a good place and thank for sharing. Is there something that worked better for you to overcome the anger? When I was going to therapy I had the opposite problem, which was I just held all emotion in and never showed anything, never said anything and it seems now it’s the opposite.
