A friend of mine works at a Walgreens

He was behind the photo counter reading Harry Potter, when a customer came up to get some film developed. She said something to him, and he snapped his head up and yelled, “What the hell do you want?”.

He apologized shortly thereafter, but this story still pleased me a great deal to hear.
