This customer with a case of that good old mad-at-the-world rage, got played. Fred is the real MVP, and this was way funnier than I expected it to be. You can't beat that timing.

    Text - Prior to being a bartender I worked at a retail chain called Big W. I'm a nerd, I tend to switch to autopilot when tired (almost always at the end of shifts) and can be a dick when annoyed. Me in a nutshell. It's a slow Wednesday afternoon, the A/C is broken again and it's about 5 degrees C hotter inside than it is outside (29c).

    Text - I inform him ina monotone voice that refunds are issued by my supervisor, not me. There's a surprisingly substantial line at the supervisors desk, people wanting cigarettes, refunds or information. He informs me that he's not waiting that long for something trivial.

He's also a mute; and after wrapping his ute around a tree as a teen, he's also deaf. As such he knows Auslan (Australian Sign Language), but can't read lips to save his life.

The guy practically screams and storms out of the store.
