My friends & I stopped at the liquor store on our way home. We had just had a great day with lots of friends, so we were in really happy moods & were being friendly & silly, nothing too boisterous though, basically just like we are daily.
The old guy behind the counter said some inappropriate things to my friend that was she was "acting worse than any drunk person he's ever seen" and that he was glad I was making the purchase, I laughed and said "I drank more than her today" because I had one beer earlier, and she had none. The guy took my card and ran it, but once my friend said "I'm sorry I have a bubbly personality and can be happy with my life" he then handed me my card, pressed cancel and said "bye bye"
The next day, my friend went to speak to the manager about the disrespect. Apparently because I said that I had a beer and because I mentioned my friend was driving our three kids (there were 2 other adults in the car as well), he told his manager that he was concerned for their safety, but the point was she was completely SOBER because she was driving our kids. And he had no issue with me having a beer, because he ran my card after I said that, it wasn't until my friend stuck up for herself after he was being rude to her that he didn't want us to make a purchase. I have been drunk and belligerent at places before and have never been treated so disrespectfully.
From now on, I will drive the 10 minutes in to Gresham for liquor for better service and better selection. Will never patronize Sandy Liquor again. read more
