Today, I held the door open for a woman and her kids on my way out of the bank. She started accusing me of patronizing her, and when I just let go of the door in protest, she deliberately leaned in so it hit her in the face. I felt the glares from the entire bank as she pretended to cry. FML

Today, I was waiting in line while a lady paid for her shopping, when her credit card got declined. She started ranting and insulting everyone and kept insisting: "I'm not poor!" By the time the lady had finally stormed off, I had spittle on my face, and the cashier was almost in tears. FML
Today, I tried to be helpful by holding the door open for a woman carrying boxes. She smiled and hurried toward me, then tripped and dropped everything at my feet. She stared at me like I'd caused it, and said, “Thanks” through clenched teeth. FML
Today, at work, I had a customer accuse me of taking the giftcard I had issued her for her return, after spending 15 minutes trying to fix her screwed up transaction. She began to yell, and follow me around the store. Security had to intervene and I had to be locked in an office until she left. FML

Today, a customer yelled at me so furiously that she sprayed my face with spittle. I had to stand there, smiling and politely explaining that I needed to see a receipt before I could give her a refund. When she finally gave up and left, my boss bitched me out for "provoking the customer". FML
Today, I was dining out with friends. I saw a mom instructing her young child to go to empty tables and take whatever cash had been left. I discreetly told the manager.

Well, there you have it the dawn of a new day. Women are just always going to complain because that is how they are. If men hold a door or stand up when women enter a room you're patronizing, if men don't they're assholes, "and there are no gentlemen left in the world. The truth is.... There aren't any ladies either.

I just had this conversation with a friend of mine. Some women complain if you don't hold it and others complain when you do. Just say thank you to the kind gesture, how hard is that?! I wanna bitch slap women like her and yell, "you're making us look bad!!"

Tell the bank to look at the camera footage to prove your innocence.

I don't like the whole holding door open or pulling out my chair makes me feel weak. However I feel like you should always say thank you when somebody holds open a door for you.
