Some people are just jerks who feel entitled to belittle others without any consequences. And the responsibility to teach them better usually falls onto nice people because who else is going to do it, right?
Like in today’s story, when a man from the boomer generation belittled an innocent cashier for “slacking off” and justified it with his First Amendment rights. When a nearby customer revealed they knew his boss and this outburst might cost him a job, the man ended up apologizing and hopefully fixing his actions in the future.
