Had a baby boomer in front of me at the Dairy Queen. She INSISTED she was a Blizzard EXPERT and there was simply NOT ENOUGH chocolate pieces in her blizzard and she wanted to complain to āwhoever is in chargeā. Sheās going on and on with this teenager. The teenager is calmly explaining they make them all the same etc etc procedure etc etc. But this woman is now yelling at the teen.
So I walk past the woman and put money in teenās tip jar. Havenāt even gotten ice cream yet.
Woman looks at me. Turns back and yells some more with the teen. I put more money in the tip jar.
The teen smiles at me. The woman canāt think of what to say to me and stops yelling, because Iām looking at her dead in the eye like āatm is over there, I can go all night. The more you yell at her, the more money she makes.ā
Aggressive generosity to combat boomer selfishness is so punk
Weaponize compassion
