I couldn’t really argue with them because they were the customers, but I also found it rude.

When I was working part time job, some people throw his money or credic card. And when some people buy cigarettes, They just say name, for example “말보로.”. I think it is very rude behavior.
I think people often act that way because they are unhappy with their own lives. Unfortunately, we have to be strong so we don’t feel bad. Still, there has to be a good, non-hostile way to let that person know their behavior is rude. Is there a way to do it?

Maybe according the rules, smoking is illegality near the busstop. When you face that situation again, call the police office.
Better yet, make the phone call right next to the smoker! It will be very interesting (and maybe a little fun) to see what he does.
Yes I will. Surprisingly, That busstop place front of police office 🙁
Who smoke at the bus stop is illegal. next time you have to call police.
Oh, I experienced similar happen. When I experience taht happen, I always hope there are smoking booth. If there are smoking booth, anyone can’t be interrupted.

I think if I called police relations bertween the neighber are strained. But I want to have good relations with them.
Their consideration was seriously lacking. If i were you, I will act in the same way.
I went to my friend’s house on the subway. In that time someone called very loudly. Everyone were turning to stare at him simultaneously. A brave man told “You’re so rude. Quiet please.”. So rude man’s face turned red and got off the subway in a hurry.
That’s really funny! A rude person has a hard time challenging a whole group of people. I’m glad you were all able to work as a team.
In that happen, Why anyone can’t meddle easily?
I got ta be someone who can say bravely.
One day I was in the bus, a woman next to me talk loudly with her cell phone. We should keep quiet in the intercity express bus. I was very tired. I also in a delicate mental state because of exam period. I want to go to deep sleep. Even the slightest noise disturb me. So I asked to her stop talking politely.
That’s great you dealt with the problem. Most people would just stay quiet and angry. I’m impressed! But I wonder why some people speak so loudly on the phone. Do they want us to hear what they’re talking about?
Maybe they only consider themselves and never think about other people.
You are so brave.i had such a thing but I didn’t say brave. I just stared that people.
You are so great. if I was in your place, I couldn’t do anything.
One day I was eating cake in home. During eat cake, my friend make a chew sound. The sound is very noise. I don’t concentration in cake and my taste fall. So i don’t eat my friend after that.
That sounds very annoying. Did you ask him to eat more quietly? Maybe you could also have chewed VERY LOUDLY and show him how it feels.
Yes, so my friend keep quietly after that.
I’m adapt chew sound. When my mother eat food. She sound ‘chopchop’ So i said ‘why you sound chopchop you looks like kid’ My mother said ‘Okay i will not sound’ But 5 minutes later chopchop sound begin to listen very small. After this situation i think chew sound really cute.

You are very understanding. But if he is very late, he should at least show others he is sorry for cutting in line.
Maybe you should also very late, will you cutting in line?

Many person think throwing money is very rude behavior. I hope all the people regard other person.
I hope so too.
Did you do part time job in supermarket?
I work at a convenience store.
I think people often act that way because they are unhappy with their own lives. Unfortunately, we have to be strong so we don’t feel bad. Still, there has to be a good, non-hostile way to let that person know their behavior is rude. Is there a way to do it?
