LET ME BUY MILK IN PEACE!

I'm so annoyed with people thinking I'm a high school student and how dang rude they can be to me. It seems like almost once a week I get someone that think I'm younger than I am. I look young- yes I know, and I get it. But you can be a little nicer! We have a Safeway here and some of the High School kids go there for lunch and I'm assuming that they only let a few kids in at a time.. So today I was walking into the grocery store to buy some milk and this guy (that doesn't look much younger than a HS student either) like stops me with his hand like right in my face and says extremely rudely "Are you a high school student?!" and I glared at him because he was rude and had in hand in my face and I said "NO!" rudely back. I know I was rude and I know I should have been nicer, but I was walking in to get milk and I get a hand in my face. It's just annoying!
I have numerous stories about people that are rude because they think I'm a HS student and then when I say "I'm not a student" they are so apologetic and try to be nice- but the point I'm trying to make is they should have been nice in the first place! I don't care how old anyone is they shouldn't be treated so rudely. I don't know these people and they don't know me- so I understand that they don't know how old I am etc. but they shouldn't feel the need to be rude to me. Anyway- stupid safeway preson.

Move to New York! The people are NOT rude here.. (Except for the one person on the freeway and his middle finger. However, I think he was picking his nose with that finger - so that won't count)You have to admit, people are pretty darn friendly here?!

OK. Stupid! I can't stand how people can be so instantly rude. Some old man chewed me out yesterday at Sams Club because he was having a bad day and I just happened to be his cashier. Big dummies!
