say what you're thinking

[DNK]

I like to get mad at people who are blatantly rude. I was in the grocery store the other day getting some dinner and this chick in line in front of me was on her cell phone. She wasn't loud or obnoxious, but when it came her time to check out, not once did she cease her conversation on the phone and speak with the lady at the register. It really pissed me off. But instead of saying something to the phone girl, after she left I commented to the register lady on how rude that was and she concurred, but conceeded that there was nothing she could have done about it, it was her duty to ring her up, rude or not.
Before I got a real job, I worked at a pizza place. It was a small place called Mellow Mushroom which was rather easy going place. Whenever I worked the counter, I refused to help people who didn't get off their phone. I'd simply walk away, or pick up a phone order, or simply stare at them. I guess it's a stupid pet peeve of mine.
Come on man, have some decency and respect for your fellow man, hang that damn thing up.
