A hamburger  — 1 year ago

One day I when I was working the main window a girl came up to the front of the line. She was discussing her order with her boyfriend and there was talk of a hamburger. He persuaded her out of it then walked away.

Since the extra hamburger seemed to be a point of contention I told her she could order a hamburger now that he was gone. Her response floored me.

“I can’t because he’ll hit me.”

Then she took her order and walked away.

It was the most disturbing thing anyone has said to me, and there was no way for me to do anything about it.

My god!

That’s horrible!

that sux

makes me wanna cry….esp since my mom has been in relationships where the guys verbally and/or physically abuse her (she just left one a week or so ago after fearing for her life)...you wanna help them as best as you can…you wanna save them…but they have to take the first step…and in the mean time, you’re hurting and just have no idea what to do…....i hate men like that….that totally sux…

How sad! =(

But I know you’ve encountered a few other Capitol Hill situations that could have been much worse if you hadn’t saved the day.

I was in a crowded coffee place one AM

and this car comes tearing into the parking lot. This girl gets out goes into the shop and he tells he to get back into the car. I’m the only one to say something (I’m a 5’3” woman)she wants to get some coffee. He gets in MY face, and tells me that he can tell his WOMEN what to do! I just look at him like he is the biggest @$$. And he leaves and gets back in his car and starts doing burnouts in the parking lot, dork. I tell the girls behind the counter the call the police and they are just all duh…The jerk takes off, I sit and drink my coffee,I told her, you know my mom put up with it, you are too young to be dealing with it at your age.Jerk comes back, girl goes with him.I have no regrets of what I did, you can’t rescue everyone, but you did plant the seed to make her aware that others could see how abusive and controlling this guy was to her.
