So I went to this new vegetarian place yesterday for lunch. They have been open for a few weeks and the food is very good. I ordered my hummus salad and while they were making it asked if I wanted a pita. I said whole wheat but the person making my food told me they were out. He was quite apologetic and I understood. The person in front of me asks for a bag and he says the same thing, that they are out. Again, apologising. The customer raises his voice and asks, "WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?" I am thinking, "Um, you have a pita in a box sealed and a salad in a box sealed, you can't carry it?" Again, the worker apologises. He makes a big thing saying how there are no whole wheat pits and no bags and how are they running this place, blah blah blah. I could not believe people can be so mean. I am sure the worker who is probably making less then $10 an hour did that on purpose. So, I left and was very disappointed in people.
When I got on the bus to go home, it was super hot. I sat down and tried to get my winter coat off without making a scene. The man next to me took the sleeve and pulled it off to assist me. How nice! He looked at me and said, "I know, very hot in here. Glad I could help!" and smiled. OK, so my faith in people was restored.
