Some people are just plain rude

I have treated people the way I wanted to be treated. I keep my composure in situations where I encounter rude, arrogant and self-absorbed people.

Today I encountered one rude individual. My uncle and I bought a few things from the grocery. Before going home we dropped by this bread store. While he was on the counter buying bread I sat down on a chair with all the plastic bags from the grocery when an employee placed a cup of coffee and a brownie on the table. Apparently it was for the [rude] man. He asked me if he could take the table and I said yes..A few seconds later he called my attention and pointed to the sign, which he deliberately placed in front of me, that says for dining customers. I just ignored him, hoping that my uncle would be finished soon because I can't carry all the grocery bags! He called me again and told me that he can't eat while I'm still sitting there! At that point I got irritated but kept my cool. Thank goodness my uncle was done so I quickly stood up and we left.

If we weren't in a hurry I would have told that man that I would dine there and that he had to find another table to eat because I was there first. All I could say after that incident was "Lord bahala ka na sa kanya. Sana maturuan siya ng leksyon."

No matter how great or smart or rich you are you have no right to treat people like that. As the commandment says, Do not do unto others what you do not want others to do unto you.
