An angry customer threw his drink at a fast-food worker. The next customer responded

..and got his license number, called the cops and reported an assault. I have no patience for idiots.

Take a photo of his car license plate! Then give that to the police.

(A reason you need to have your phone close to you and make that your first action. Couple years ago I got rear-ended coming out of parking lot onto highway. Guy behind me was looking at traffic instead of who was in front of him. Bumped me just enough to cause trunk to open.

I pull to shoulder, he comes around and parked in front of me. I get out to see damage. That’s when he used that time to leave the scene. If I had that photo...!)

But when you see something so shockingly and disturbingly hateful, you mind might focus on the victim while the douche-nozzle drives away.

It's pretty much sop in the age of drive up holdups. They likely have it all on tape. Just takes a police request to get it as long as too much time hasn't passed.

I hope Bryanna has an uncomplicated birth experience, and welcomes a healthy wee one into the world (scary in the time of COVID, as well as due to the inequities that Black mothers face).

another drive in ever.

I agree!

Some people can be so horrible (the man in the first car) and some can be so wonderful (Ms. Syed). I hope Brianna will be ok and have a safe delivery when it's time.

Violent, aggressive idiots like this will keep repeating their criminal behaviors unless they face penalties for engaging in them.

The best way to counteract nastiness is to do so with kindness. Feroza Syed is an inspiration for us to choose to be the best of humanity whenever we come across someone choosing to be the worst of humanity.

...a serious beating seems in order.
Kindness is undeserved in his case.

Really? A fan of violence, are you?

Can I still post here?

Oh, I hope not!

Internet tough guys really don’t do a lot of good, do they?

Anyway, internet tough guys can post anywhere they want, right?

Bullies need their ass whipped; or public shaming.

ing and soaked.

So, you then burn rubber out of the lot in pursuit of the drink thrower? Assuming you find him, you do what? Run him off the road, pull him out of the car and proceed to “asswhip” him?

Then perhaps he shoots you? Or “asswhips” you? Or someone calls police to report that someone is being “asswhipped” on the side of the road, and police respond?

Your explanation for beating someone up will be what? You’re a hero?

Please tell me how said “asswhipping” unfolds in these narratives? Genuinely curious.

You chase the guy down and do anything YOU probably get arrested.
Dont you think if someone had whipped Trumps ass when he was a bit younger it might have affected his bullying? If someone had cracked Martin Shkrelli's head after being scammed out of a couple million he MIGHT think twice before starting another short selling scam?
Usually the ONLY thing that gets thru to people like this is someone hurting them either physically or by humiliating them in public.
The person who threw the drink has done shit like this before. Probably worse. And they'll change when someone puts them in their place. I didnt say "By God if I would've been there, I would've beat his ass!!" No, I, personally, likely wouldnt; i'm in my 60s!

And yes, I agree with you that a good ass kicking would have done both those guys a world of good!

FFS, no one on this thread threatened that they were going to kick the guy's ass, only that said ass needs kicking.

You saw that as an opportunity to trot out the tried and true "internet tough guy" ad hominem bullshit.

I like that we can discuss punishing the fool and at the same time be grammatically correct!!

Hit a nerve, eh?

But you keep on being you.

(Love the smilie, by the way. It adds much gravitas to your reply.)

In Isreal they have mandatory military duty

here, upon reaching 18 years of age, every person spend 6 months working the OTHER side of the counter

we would be a much more polite society

She should have jotted down the license plate number ... but I suppose that's what security cameras are for.

I'm surprised the culprit hasn't been apprehended yet

I don’t think anywhere would consider a cup of coke with ice a deadly weapon.

if it has enough velocity and hits the forehead of the target.

A cup of Coke with ice is a slush and I’m sure that guy wasn’t Babe Ruth.

But, hey, it's the Internet.

Shows we still have enough good people in this world to overcome the assholes.

You practiced your love for humankind.

arrogant and wicked. the reaping is lurking for them.

An angry customer threw her drink at my niece. Unfortunately, she was fired because my niece retaliated and threw fries at the customer.🙂

Very impressed and so happy there are people like this still.

Warms my heart.

I can imagine some people would be reluctant to send money to someone with that kind of lack of transparency. I frequently contribute to GFM campaigns. I'm not even familiar with Venmo and Cash App for donations or payments.

Kindness is everything, particularly in these difficult times.

The only thing that would make it better is a phone shot of his license plate and an assault charge. That would complete the picture.

Some people just don’t get the concept of being “decent”

In my younger days I once threw a hamburger and drink at the manager of a Sonic. But she did sort of ask for it.

The meal was $2.99 and being someone who is good at math I knew it should come to $3.24 with tax and I had exactly $3.24.

So I ordered and when the girl brought it out she said it was $3.49. So I told he that the price was calculated wrong and it should be $3.24 and that was all I had. And she took the money and left the food.

Well a few minutes later after I’d already take a few sips out of the drink and a few bites out of the hamburger, the manager comes out and says “The price is $3.49. Either give me the rest of the money or give back the food.” So to her shock I threw it at her. Then I left hungry over 24 cents.

Later I called the owner and told him what happened. I told him I was wrong to throw the food at her but she should have listened to me when I said the price was wrong and not come out and demanded 25 cents I didn’t have and I’d be willing to apologize to her if she would apologize to me. He said I was right that the price should have been $3.24 and even sent me coupons for 3 free combos and I went back and we apologized to each other.

Word of advice: never, ever tip a Home Depot employee. One of the first things we are told in orientation is accepting a tip is a termination offense. If we can’t talk the customer out of giving us a tip (I was a HD employee but haven’t been for years) we are to take it to a manager and it will be added to the Homer Fund, which is an emergency relief fund for our employees.

I would imagine most fast food joints are the same way. The logic is, if someone gives an employee a tip they might expect “special favors” like only being charged for nine boards when they bought 10.
