Tell Em Why You Mad Son

This weekend, I was forced to do the neck roll, eye roll, eyebrow curl, and finger snap. "Excuse me!"

I went with my roommate to get a leather bag. She bought one and after she saw mine (biter), got the same one in a different color (cough cough. any similarity to anyone else I know is completely fictional).  I agreed to go with her back to the first store to return the bag.

She wanted to act like she didn't know English.. Pah-leaze lady. Then she went on some rant about her time being wasted in her books, whatever that means. My roommate didn't seem to be getting anywhere with the conversation so I thought I'd help. I asked the woman if there was a sign in the store saying that there were no returns or exchanges; there were plenty of signs but I don't speak or read Italian, clearly. She said no and to that, I explained that my roommate was entitled to her money back. 

Frustrated that I was right, she shook her ol' fat head and went next door to get the manager, or whatever he was, I don't really care. He went behind the counter and was giving my roommate back her money from the cash drawer and lecturing her. At this point I was just through with the unnecessary back and forth. Like..you got your money, let's go. Wanting to have the last word, my roommate told the man they should put a sign in the door to which he responded rather loudly with a pointed finger in her face as he stepped closer, "You don't teach me." 

The big black bad wolfess that I am stepped to him (yeah, stepped) and told him he didn't need to raise is voice and we weren't having that. Again, acting like he didn't understand he turned his attitude towards me. "Oh no, have a nice day."  He proceeded to follow us out the door and I abruptly stuck my hand in his face "Talk to the hand because the face don't understand leave a message at the tone, beep."

I didn't actually say that but the gesture was enough. He got the point.
