Unfiltered Story #185169

I use a wheelchair, following an accident when I was six and have been in line to pay for my shopping for the last few minutes, in a queue that is now about ten deep, when a woman walks past and just steps in front of me,

Me: Excuse me

She ignores me

Me: I said excuse me

She finally turns around, and looks down. Immediately feigns surprise, “I I didn’t see you there”

Me: So that’s why you decided to jump in line, ignoring all these people. even if you didn’t see me

Woman: Look, just because I ignored a cripple, doesn’t make me a bitch. I’ve just got a new job at the local council and I’m in here to grab a few things. I donlt see why I have to wait when I;m only buying a bottle of wine

Everyone, including the cashier is stunned at her calling me a *cripple*, but I just grin

Me: That’s crap, you don’t work at the council. who will you work for

Woman: Not that it’s any of your business, but it’s for a Persoanl Assistant for the housing unit.

About 5’10, wearing a blue suit…and did you hire her on the spot?

I hang up the phone and the woman’s face is now drained with blood, while she begins to stammer an apology.

Me: You know what, you better go in front, i;ve a feeling you might need that wine.

The woman, just puts the wine down and walks from the store, while everyone just claps.

I never saw her at my office, since i;m the head of the Housing Department, i would have noticed
