I think we can all be a bit rude and cranky at times, and that’s completely normal. Nobody’s perfect! In fact, I was impolite to a friend this morning, but I apologized after and explained why I was so cranky. We’re only human after all!
But some people really have an attitude problem, and they are completely unapologetic about it. And when they behave badly, people need to stand up to them. That’s exactly what the woman in this story did when meeting a rude man. Her ingenious payback is hilarious and absolutely brilliant!
This story put a big smile on my face, and I just had to share it with you!
A lawyer boarded an airplane in New Orleans with a box of frozen crabs and asked a stewardess to take care of them for him.
She took the box of crabs and said, “No problem Sir, we’ll put it in the crew’s freezer.”
The man raised a finger at her and said, “Oh, you say ‘no problem’ now, but I’m holding you personally responsible to keep this box frozen and intact. I’m a lawyer at a big firm, and if this box thaws even a bit, I’m going to make your life a living hell. So don’t you ‘no problem’ me – if anything happens, you’re gonna be the one who has a problem, not me.”
The payback
Needless to say, the stewardess was annoyed by his behavior. But she just nodded and loaded the box into the plane’s freezer.
Shortly before landing in New York, she used the intercom to announce to the entire cabin, “Attention passengers, we are about to land. But first, would the man who gave me the crabs in New Orleans please raise your hand.”
Not one hand went up… so she took them home and ate them.
Now that’s what I call payback! SHARE if you laughed!
