Yeah, in most cases I think it's best to turn it into an "us against them"
sort of thing, you're on the customer's side but that dang system/The
Man/boss/government is keeping you down, making you check for this and you
just want to keep your job.
Internally I just want to smack most of these people. Unless you just got off
of the boat yesterday you know the rules, jackhole. Cut the eye-rolling,
irate crap and let me get to the part where I make the drink already,
otherwise I'm moving on to the more cooperative customers adjacent to you.
