Poll of the Day > Today at work I witnessed one of the funniest exchanges I've ever heard...

(+) Yeah! (+)

I am in the back room when a guy walks in. I didn't see him at the time but I later saw it was this dude who comes in on a semi-regular basis and buys a pint of something. He is always super friendly to the people who work here, and i've never seen him cause a problem until tonight.

He comes in, and I guess his mask was not on properly, so my manager told him to put it on correctly. I guess he moved it around but it was still under his nose, so my manager tells him three time to pull it up over his nose, as this guy is walking to the back, around the corner at the end of the first aisle. This guy then says "I heard you....fucker"

The "fucker" was in a lower voice but not a whisper. My manager hears this and tells the man imediately he can leave. The guy walks up front, and at this time I come out from the back room to back up my manager if need be. The guy walks up, my manager again says he can leave, and the guy goes "You want to fight?" and my manager goes "no, but I heard what you said, so you can leave."

At this point I walk into the office which is raised two steps up from the floor, and stand there, still ready to back my manager up if need be. I had to sit down and put my head on the desk because what happened next might be the funniest thing i've ever heard.

My manager tells the guy he heard him call him a fucker. The man goes "I was talking to myself" and my manager fires back without skipping a beat "You call yourself fucker?" and the man goes "yes" like it was a normal thing to do.

At this point things have just turned from potentially bad to comical. Once he realized he may actually not be served, the man does kind of soften up. He starts talking about how the people here all know him(technically true. Most of those people have moved to other stores or retired, and me, a male with long hair(relevant) is the last of that crew left). I am sitting in the chair with my head down, when he points into the office and goes "she knows me" and again, without skipping a beat my manager replies "that's a dude" and the guy didnt say anything, and I couldn't see anything, but at this point I am trying not to audibly cackle with laughter.

The conversation moves along, the guy actually did apologize and did get served with a warning that next time if he disrespects my manager like that again there would be no negotiation.

This guy just casually calls himself fucker out loud in public. I don't think he does, but HE said it.

Dang, almost voted off the ship, but he clutched it and managed to live another round.
