Tilt Control: High Stakes Argument with Auntie Anne's Employee
Ok so i am on mega life tilt. I land in vegas, and my normal routine dictates that i go grab a salted pretzel dog and a garlic pretzel at Auntie Anne's in D gate and read for 20 mins while waiting for the bags, then take the tram over and grab my stuff as its coming out. Perfect timing, perfect plan.
Anyways, i am walking over to Auntie Anne's, seeing no line i think to myself, ship it! I walk up and Persian lady smiles and asks what i would like. I say 'could i please have a pretzel dog with salt on it?' (with the most charming smile imaginable since im about to enjoy my favorite part of arriving in any city). The whole world proceeds to crash down around me at this point. She has a blank expression on her face and says 'Im sorry sir i cant do that'. I sorta start laughing like shes joking, as she is staring at me with an expression that says something like 'you are kinda cute, im a huge idiot, god i hate my life, and durrrrrrrrr?'. I kinda dont know what to do, so i say 'well, is there some way you could maybe grab the salt shaker behind you and kinda dump a bit on the pretzel dog?' She looks at me again, and is like 'Im sorry sir i cant do that, what i can do is offer you a regular pretzel with salt on it.'
At this point i look to the other employee, a nice looking strapping young african american who is cracking up, and ask him 'is she foreal? Is this april fools already?' He is giggling like a schoolgirl and is like 'haha i dno man shes the manager i just scoop the ice for lemonade.' I turn back to the Persian Aversian, and ask her one more time 'I dont understand why i cant have salt on my pretzel dog, is it company policy? Did they send out a memo saying that you arent allowed to use the salt shaker on the pretzel dogs?'
She looks back at me starting to get annoyed, saying 'I just cant do it.' At this point a line is forming behind me since i have been standing here arguing for at least a minute, and i dont want to hold everyone up, so i go into the tank.. 'OK, what if i give you 5 dollar tip, can i get salt on my pretzel now? (as im pulling out cash as a proxy) she says 'yea i suppose i could do that!' So i look at her with a sneer, and say 'you should be fired, **** off' and walk off. i have never done anything like this in my life, and was on perma tilt for the next 4 hours. i am still completely befuddled, because she ownd as i didnt get a salted pretzel dog, and had to wait 3 hours before eating hibachi tonight. gg
CLIFF NOTES: Raptor gets pwnd by Persian Aversian over a salted pretzel dog dispute.

Re: Tilt Control: High Stakes Argument with Auntie Anne's Employee
its weird how when you run bad for a while then all of a sudden you realize it REALLY is affecting you because you do something like this. i know ive been a jerk to people and later ill realize it and its always completely because of poker.
but i guess at the same time, im usually so mellow (totally livin) because of the benefits of poker too

Re: Tilt Control: High Stakes Argument with Auntie Anne's Employee
I think with all the 2+2ers who go thru the Vegas airport everyday, everyone who has the chance should go to the same Auntie Anne's and request the same thing raptor did, start a scene when denied, and post updates.
