My schedule got changed something NICE this week, after it was already done. I'm in a very bad mood, and with bad timing. Not even my coffee's helping. DO NOT cross my path today.

Edit: Oh, right. That's what I forgot. Yeah. A couple of days ago, a girl came up to me in the store while I was fixing something and asked me, in English, mind, if I spoke English. :::blink blink::: "Yes," I told her, but inside I was reeling. Of COURSE I speak English!

Today. Some FUCKHEAD asked me if I spoke Spanish. Normally, not a problem; I rather prefer it when customers ASK first (in either language), before a) assuming I speak Spanish and rattling off a string of nonsense (and that's when I pretend not to understand), b) trying their DAMNEDEST to speak English and failing miserably, or c) assuming flat out that I don't at all. I digress. This was a problem because not only was I on register trying to ring another customer, but when I said, "No," he had the BALLS to respond with two words:

"Why not?"

o_o;;;#

I gave him the most terrible look of disgust and disbelief I could muster despite my shock (I think it could be best described as a "WTF?!-look"). What the fuck do you MEAN, "why not?" Do I look like fucking Telemundo to you?! So, after recovering a bit, I asked him to repeat himself.

"Excuse me?" I was trying SO hard not to explode; it probably came out a lot more curt than I meant.
"Do you speak Spanish." Statement. Not a question.
"No, I don't."
"Why not?" WTF AGAIN?!?!?!
"...Because I speak English, sir."

Shortly after, he walked out. Is it wrong of me to have been upset? (I don't think so.)
