"Just tap there," said the cashier as they ignored me and the cash in my outstretched hand and as they pointed to the credit card machine. After a few seconds of being told, repeatedly, "Over there, papi," I took them up on their word. I slapped the money against the card reader and said, loud enough for everyone around me to hear: "Hey, this machine isn't working; maybe if I try sliding it through....nope, still not working. Maybe you can do better."

The other customers had witnessed how rudely I was being treated. They burst out laughing when the cashier finally looked at me and grabbed the money out of my hand. A few more cash paying customers imitated me, laughing at that cashier's increasing upset.
