*An employee has just finished ringing up a customer. The next customer in line is waiting several feet away and proceeds to take her time approaching the counter, since she is the only one waiting in line. When she is about 2 steps away from the counter, the previous customer (who has since left the line and examined new merchandise in a different area nearby) runs over and jumps in front of the new customer from the opposite direction of the way the line forms. The employee informs the customer who jumped in that he needed to help the other customer first since she was waiting in line. The employee finishes with the second customer and now proceeds to assist the initial customer again.*
Customer: I just want to let you know, I do not think that was right, what you did.
Employee: Excuse me?
Customer: That wasn't right, you shouldnda taken her first.
Employee: I'm sorry but she was next in line.
Customer: Nuh uh, that wasn't right.
Employee: Okay.
Customer: You think I'm just gunna let it happen and not say anything, but NO I'm gunna say something.
Employee: Okay.
Customer: I got here FIRST.
Employee: ...?
Customer: Maybe if she was 4 steps closer, well THEN maybe it woulda been her turn. But nope, I got here first, and that just ain't right.
Employee: ...
Customer: You know, I don't even care! Cause I got the love of the LORD in my heart! So I don't even care, nuhuh. But I just gotta say something, that just ain't right.
*The employee finishes the transaction as politely as possible while the customer continues to inform him that "It just ain't right, what you did." After this, the customer found the manager of the store and informed him that the employee working the register was racist against Hispanic people because he helped a white customer first instead of her.*
