Then I am here to change that for them. Let's make the retail experience more like Germany. Stop entertaining this practice and it will end.

Also, I'm a contractor who works on construction sites. Not exactly a lot of overweight individuals in that field. Not everyone you meet on the Internet is a stereotype. So stop projecting. I never once said anything about you personally, so you're kind of being the asshole here.

I guess I am being one too, but no. You exclaiming that you tell retail workers to fuck off makes you an asshole, regardless if I am too. You aren’t changing any practice or attempting to.

Also if you’re claiming overweight people generally aren’t on construction sites then I don’t believe you’ve ever been on one.

Also to be clear, the only thing I’m basing any stereotypes on is the stereotypes for people you tell retail workers to fuck off, which are generally assholes.

Do you honestly think I go around to people and tell them directly to their face to fuck off? It's a metaphor for how I really feel. That's how I talk and converse in real life too. Sorry if you took it literally. Like, I can say any number of nasty things to you right now, but I'm not. What you see is what you get.
