Metaman, welcome to the world of American blue-collar workers. 99% of government workers, toll collectors, fast food joint workers, just bicker all goddamn day long, and don't care less about doing their job right. You'll notice this at any government agency, public university offices, and anywhere else where the only job requirement is having the ability to sue for discrimination/racism if you possibly get laid off.

To back their lazy ways, they go and join a union, and then the union forces the companies to pay union members ridiculous raises (tax collectors in NJ make over 50K a year, no wonder they bitch so much about EZ-Pass), and continue doing their half-ass jobs. Then to keep their abusive power, the union leaders give %$$ to support the campaigns of ultra-liberal politicians, who once/if they get elected .. give paybacks to the unions, and so all the union members vote for that politician. And the world keeps going round and round.....

So, unfortunately, you have to make the aggressive asshole behind you in line wait about 30 more seconds and carefully check every item that you ordered when you receive it at the restaurant.
agreed, you see i dont care about the wrong pizza i care that its a bunch of stupid girls that giggle and run around and cant mark a dam pizza.

and about unions, believe me before i started to do full time internet i had a partime job at this warehouse called westfair food (in canada) it had a nationwide union, all superstores and all westfair warehouses. there was a few people who knew they could not be fired and it showed. and the problem was that the way my job worked was the group got an entire group of orders for the day, and we had overtime basically day in and out for over a year because of the lazy people. and the funny thing was it was also the lazy people who called in sick all the time and even made it worse.
