A 7-Eleven customer angry that the clerk called him "honey" reached over the counter and punched her in the face, Connecticut police said Wednesday.
It happened Monday at a 7-Eleven in Newington, just south of Hartford. The 7-Eleven clerk told police that customer David Wright, 52, asked her the price of several items, and when she replied, she called him "honey."
Newington Police say Wright threatened her, saying "if she called him honey again, that he would punch her in the face." After the clerk questioned Wright's intentions, police said, he reached over the counter and punched her in the face. [...]

He was charged with third-degree assault and second-degree breach of the peace and released on $5,000 bond, police said.

Angry much? Some people live eternally pissed

I was once in the dollar store standing behind a man in line. When it was his turn to pay, he placed 2 bottles of the dollar store liquor on the register counter. The cashier was a young 20 something year old girl. She playfully asked for the man’s ID and that when the argument broke out. A one sided argument ‘cause the girl was speechless at this grown baboon’s reaction. Most men would take the flirting as an added bonus and just walk away. No, not these asshats, they will fight you even for saying “good morning”.

This is why I think that combat pay be required for retail work, been there done that and will never do it again. I try to be as pleasant to retail workers as I wanted customers to be to me in their situation. You're gonna be standing in front of the retail worker for maybe 3 minutes why is it worth all the rage and attitude, just do what you have to do and just fucking leave! Please!

In my teenage years I worked in a convenience store and Aqua Velva and rubbing alcohol were fast sellers with the guys and some gals who couldn't afford anything higher priced. Boy, did they reek! Folks will drink anything when it gets that bad, I'm guessing as bad as that beer and stuff is at the Dollar Store, it still beats Aqua Velva.

@cubby, our cheap liquor of choice was Colt 45 Malt Liquor. Just typing it is making me want to hurl....

Yep, I remember that! Grab a colt, tuck it inside a paper bag with just the very top peeking out, go sit under a bush on the wall at the cemetary, and talk about old times while getting sloshed, a couple hours later stumble back the to the store and start all over again, this convenience store was right on the road home from the biggest church in town, so guess who else I'd be seeing on a Wednesday and Saturday evenings! Had lots more trouble out of the fine upstanding christians than the bums! LOL Good Times way back in the '70's!

We cut the half gallons of milk containers and fill it with 7-up and malt liquor. The next morning it was close to impossible to lift your head from the pillow. I was about 15 or 16....damn immaturity. Had I known that was sittty, I'd hit up my Daddy's liquor stash
