Rude Employee Won't Sell To Non-French Speaker, She Gets Tediously Petty Revenge

Everyone has their own biases to contend with in other countries, and for one reason or another, the fine people of Paris specifically have a bit of a reputation for being extremely rude and condescending to people who they can tell aren't from there. Sometimes to the point that they'll flat out refuse to acknowledge the existence of tourists, the very people who fund 10% of their entire economy. It's also true that tourists can be a handful, and American tourists can be particularly obnoxious in the first place.

For those of us who try to be super chill when we're in a different place, someone's defensive rudeness is a needless exercise in hostility. But since we're just visiting, it's hard to really do anything about it. This interaction in particular might be cathartic for others who have also had unsavory experiences abroad. Specifically Paris. Which we have heard, smells.
