No doubt she's a b*tch. Ban her from the cafeteria. But don't make us pay for a federal court case. That's beyond idiotic.
She acted very bad but you should have a little compassion. I just buried my father in March. He was in a Veteran’s Home for a year before dying and I can tell you that it is very stressful to care for aging parents (my mom is on chemo right now) and take them to appointments and so on.
I think the cafeteria worker was one of those people who thought they could exert their “power” and the cashier should’ve just said, “okay, well next time you have to pay $3.80). Incidentally, I also know that it DOES NOT COST $3.80 for a soda and the people in the cafeteria where my dad was were really sweet and would never have done that.
