Stupid Tax Plus A**hole Tax Equals Waiting Tax

I am a customer in a copy shop, working a large order at the self-serve machine. As a result, I am present for the entirety of this interaction.

Customer: “My prints are upside down!”

Their order is on regular, non-bordered paper.

Employee: “Oh, well, if you just turn—”

Customer: “This is what you get for asking for something done right from… a… well… wherever you’re from.”

The employee is Hispanic, but they’re speaking without a hint of an accent.

Employee: “…Apologies. I will fix it. Please return in about thirty minutes.”

The a**hole customer leaves, and I see the employee take the original order and turn it around — yes, just physically rotating it 180 degrees — and put it back in the envelope.

The customer comes back, looks at the fixed order, and huffs.

Customer: “If you knew what you were doing, you wouldn’t have twice as much work!”
