Today is so not a good day to mess with me. I'm pretty stressed out.
I suppose that the Budweiser delivery truck driver probably wasn't aware of that. He was clearly preoccupied with running after a woman who had perhaps attempted to steal beer from him, and with loudly calling her a cunt. I'm sure that when he threw the tall can of beer down the street, he meant for it to hit her and not to land right in front of me as I was walking through Chinatown on my lunch hour.
My first instinct was to yell at the guy, but it seemed like a good way to get beat up so I looked for a non-violent alternative. One of the many virtues of the mobile phone is that it's a convenient instrument for revenge. It may not have occurred to the Budweiser delivery truck driver that I could watch him walk back to his truck and then dial the phone number printed on the side of the cab.
I had a nice chat with someone in the Budweiser delivery department. He expressed concern over my having had to dodge a large airborne can of their product because of an employee's anger management issues, and he was happy to take down the driver's license plate number so that he could follow up on the matter. It's so rare that you get good customer service these days.
