Karma At It Best

Today i found myself seeing what karma does best. It all started when i went to the shops after dropping alfie off at school, i went into the shops and joined the line. At the time the line was just myself and a lady with a baby. Now, she was having some bother with her child so i stepped back in order to help give her some room when i noticed a man come into the shop. He stood just to the side of me and gave me that, “I’m next” look. Anyway, the woman was finished and as i moved toward the counter he also moved, somehow thinking that because of his age he was entitled to a faster service than me. I looked at the guy and said. “Sorry mate but i was here first” as i said this the shop assistant agreed and the man started to hurl abuse at me. I honestly don’t know what his problem was but he did have one. After walking out the shop he swiftly followed shouting “Walking away are we” and continued to scream abuse at me. A couple of seconds later this guy (About 45 ish) had hit the deck in the snow, in an attempt to catch me up and give me more shit.
Its wrong, but i didnt stop walking. Instead, i continued at my normal pace but with an added grin. Just as i was about to leave i could hear him moaning and another guy saying “We better get you to the hospital”.
What is it with the older generation that makes them think that they have some kind of priority over us. I think this guy learned his lesson.
