Interesting...I was out in Oyster Bay on Wed night. No problems there. That's because the bar was kept under control.
But it's the LI jerkoffs that leave LI that cause problems.
Not only that- Brooklyn. Flatbush Ave bars (Avalanche, Turtle Shell-where they allow the kiddies in there to drink- also....actually that's it) Usually by 1am on Saturdays there's a fight.
Anyway, point being- retail is the best business (probably aside from Jimmy's job, where I've heard many more stories from him and they are funny)for encountering morons. Going from ShopRite (and getting $$ thrown at me by snobby Jews), to Old Navy (and having assholes try to let themselves into fitting rooms and then leaving clothes behind, and people asking for "farmer pants" as opposed to the normal saying of "overalls") to Staples....Staples was the best store for morons. I loved the job, I just hated the customers.
People coming in w/6 year old surge protectors asking to return them saying "it doesnt work" (so buy a fucking new one), to the man known as "Blue Black" (smelly middle eastern man who buys a shitload of blue & black papermate pens and "blue black" are the only words he knows how to say), to the idiots who work for discount stores trying to return fax rolls saying that "its the wrong one" or "it didnt fit", and when you open the box, and see the roll, it's used- they try to pull a fast one on me. Nah ahhh.....not me.
Anyway, those are my little tidbits.
