Just kidding Superstaff. Remember these kinds of statements fall under the 'not all' category.

You know you're cool with us.

Speaking of women and comics, my ex and I had our areas, I knew more about the Turtles and modern Batman (at the item), she knew more about Teen Titans and stuff. Whenever we left the comic shop she'd usually be carrying twice the books I would.

Edit- reading your full post, that really sucks. Surprised fellow Hispanics were also siding with him. Like one of em shoulda been like 'no le pongas caso as ese pinche gringo' or something. WTF.
Thanks, my dude.

And nah, nobody said anything. They chuckled and laughed for whatever reason. I guess they found it amusing or whatever. Nobody seemed sympathetic. My co-worker (hispanic as well) coldly told me to wash my face because I was crying. What did happen, oddly, was that when I went to eat lunch at the Quizno's next door, I was on the phone with my then boyfriend (now husband), telling him what happened when some lady interrupted, and told me that what happened to me sucked, and to call her if I wanted another job, then gave me her card. I thought it was a nice gesture at first, though the number I called was for something that seemed to be a telemarketing scam so I noped out of it.

I've worked in other retail jobs, and most people don't really...do anything about a-hole customers. When I worked at Target, some lady got all impatient with how slow I was, so she screamed at me, and pushed a plastic bin right into me all aggressively. I flicked the light on for the managers to come assist me, except they never did. The lady behind her in line told me "man, this job is rough!" in a joking way, but it didn't really do much to comfort me. Target was...worse than CVS in terms of getting really catty, mean ladies like that on a daily basis. CVS just had that one big incident, though it was probably worse than anything that happened at Target.

And thanks, FredWolfLeonardo.
