So yeah I'm just minding my business working with the shopping carts, and here comes one customer, he returns one shopping cart and sarcastically tells me I'm welcome while he hands it to me. The problem is, he said it way too soon and didn't even give me a chance to thank him. So I glanced at him, shocked at what just happened. And while he's walking away, I holler back, "GEEZ DUDE I WAS GONNA SAY THANK YOU!" and retorted "I DIDN'T ASK YOU TO DO THAT FOR ME!" My way of telling him not to do nice things for strangers and expecting gratitude afterward unless they ask first. I was legit mad that I almost cussed him out while on the job. Such an arrogant thing to do. Why did he feel the need to scold me too soon? Because I didn't thank him quick enough? Don't get me wrong, I've been the person to say you're welcome but this was just downright petty.

Doing good deeds for total strangers only to call them out when you didn't get the reaction you wanted is petty.
