DISQUS

Actually, I find that being rude is the only way to get people to leave me the fsck alone. My wife is more polite than I am and she has a constant stream of people (mostly at work) wasting her time. I'm viciously protective of my time (especially against salespeople because they are more likely to try to flow chart me) and honestly, the chances that I will have to deal with this person again are slim to none. And what's the worst that happens? Maybe the word will get around and people won't bother you at all. :)

Yeah good post Brett. You shouldn't be made to feel bad about it. I had a similar (but not) situation happen at breakfast the other day. I go out for breakfast and get poached eggs because I fail at cooking them successfully myself. After waiting twenty five minutes they came out rock hard! I called the waitress over and explained why I eat out and can they redo them and she made me feel like a complete pr%^k. Why should we feel bad about speaking our mind.
