Yes, suppose that was the case, how would you have suggested the guy with the crowbar deal with this incident?

The guy in post 24 infered that he wanted to do a whole lot more than just inform the cleck of her error. "she turned all shades of red and apologized. Wanting to display more dignity than that little tart ever could, I walked away"

She had already shown her embarassment at her mistake by 'turning all shades of red'. What more should she have done? Go over and apologize? Maybe, but doing that would have called even more attendtion to what was already a mistake in the eyes of #24. I can just hear it now "For Petes sake, that $^%*(*& clerk not only treated my wife rudely, but THEN, in front of the whole store blew it up into a big deal"

If anyone needed to be concerned about a crowbar to the head, based on the account, it would be the clerk, not the deaf lady.

What’s your common sense suggestion for deaf people who might be put into situations like this? I’d really like to know.

Based on the account of #24, nothing different. #24 might want to re-evaluate HIS reaction though.

BTWYou still haven't even acknowledged that the clerks reaction might be quite normal in the case of a hearing, but rude customer.

We aren’t even talking about the same clerk. I’m talking about the stupid clerk who hit the deaf guy with a crow bar and you’re talking about the guy in post 24 and his wife. Geez, who really is the deaf one here? LOL!
