Argument
At The
Chinese Restaurant
Just the other day I was walking past a Chinese
restaurant. You know the take-out place, which seems to find a home in every
urban neighborhood throughout America. I was hungry after a hard days work so I
decided to buy dinner rather than cook.
As
I waited in line to place my order, I heard the man in front of me try to place
his order. When the lady behind the counter couldn’t understand what the man
wanted to order, he became very hostile towards the woman. He actually cursed
her out. Although I have witnessed plenty of arguments, I’ve never seen
anything quite like this. I mean he repeatedly told the lady how stupid he
thought she was and continued to curse at her even after he paid for and
received the food he ordered.
After
I placed my order I remember thinking this guy continued to question the
intelligence by calling her stupid simply because she didn’t speak or
understand English as well as he thought she should. The fact of the matter is
he really doesn’t have a great command of the English language either. That
would explain his inability to express himself without the use of profanity.
I
also think the fact that he chose to verbally abuse a lady by calling her
stupid when she is about to prepare food for him really shows who is stupid. It
is not only stupid, it is down right dangerous.
