So as I am discovering, one of the um.. joys of working in a public state run and funded facility, and therefore public building, means we can not really order anyone to leave.
That is unless they become threatening or physical. We are one of the first people you see (we being the gallery admissions people) so we are as my co-worker put it "open targets" to any ranting loon on a soapbox.
Enter mr crazy man who comes up to me and hands me his business card and proceeded to tell me all about how immagrants suck, they are stealing our jobs and ruining the country (whoa boy did he pick the wrong 'canadian' to say that to eh!)... because im white with blonde hair so I MUST be a canadian right...
and how Asian made anything was pathetic and crap and how the building was going to burn down, and the mouse on our computer would explode because it was made in china. Also how two pronged electronics were dangerous, and it was all a consipirsay between builders and building inspectors and how people take bribes and blah blah ranty blah boycott walmart and zellers and low cost crappy big box stores etc
so Im sitting there shaking im so scared because ive never been trapped into talking (or listening) to one of these nutjobs before, terrified to speak incase he picks up on my accent and not sure what to do, my co-worker comes over and takes the card and everything and lets him finish his rant and he finally leaves...were both just like
we file an incident report, capture his photo from the video cameras and the security guards come in and talk to us about what happened.... the police will be called tomorrow
I can laugh about it now, Im still shaking my head in wonder and pity. Imagine living your life that angry.
I found his website on the internet (that was posted on his business card) but I wont post it because Im not sure if thats against the rules. Maybe if a mod clears me, I will.... it truely is a site to behold heres a clip that makes me even more confused
QUOTE"most boring people are into watching TV all the time, going to plays, soap operas, art galleries, museums"ENDQUOTE
yes, he came to my place of business which is what.... and Art gallery.... maybe to liberate me from my own ignorance I suppose?
After thought...Damn I should have made him a tinfoil hat!!
but then he only wears Canadian made.....
