The scene: our local Independantly Owned grocery store, approximately one hour until closing. CW and I were cleaning in the deli when the World's Greatest Dad walks up, pushing a toddler in a stroller...
WGD: Anyone here who can make me some chicken?
CW: Im sorry, all the fryers have been off for a couple hours now...
WGD immediately turns to walk away, muttering loudly "That guy's fucking stupid!"
CW and I:
A few minutes later,we see our MOD arguing with this guy. MOD looks calm yet pissed, but WGD is flailing his arms, we can hear the emphasized "fuck/ing" thrown in every few words. We edge closer to try to catch the conversation. CW from produce comes over and gives us the scoop. Apparently, this brilliant role model decided to rip open a bag of sliced pepperoni and munch away, then toss the half-full bag on a shelf right in front of MOD, who now had his cell phone out to call the po-po. Wonder-Dad ran out of the store. Being the nosy wench I am, decided to run out for a quick smoke and to see what was going on. Nada, except our security guy was giving a description of him to the police on his cell. I went back in, the side door, and hear a commotion at the front. Seems Father of the Year came back and "went off" on MOD...all with toddler strapped in umbrella stroller.
At closing I asked MOD "So did ya whoop some ass?" and he just laughed, all cool like he is, but didnt offer any details. My parting comment to CSM was "Who gives a guy like that a KID?" and she replied "People like that should have to fill out an application to have a kid"
Truer words and all that...
