Your Thinking Is Far Left(Handed)
(We recently hired a new girl at the restaurant where I work. She has a “know-it-all” attitude and despite it being her first job, she deplores the practices at the restaurant and how we are “unprofessional.” She’s also a hardcore feminist, which we don’t have a problem with, but she insists on putting up posters of awareness around the place. This happened a few Saturdays ago. Note: we hand write the orders and have a column where the prices are placed.)
Me: “[New Girl], try not to write the orders in this column.” *points to show her*
New Girl: “I’m left handed. It’s not my fault!”
Me: *after a short pause* “Well, it kind of is, but it’s okay. Just start from the very far left next time.”
New Girl: “That’s like saying it’s your fault that you’re gay and you can’t get married.” *walks off*
(Needless to say, she quit the same evening due to my “homophobia.”)
