I can agree here, and to comment on the other part of your Target experience. I mean, everyone you meet or have to deal with in life might not be of sound mind or character.
It's "contagious" in a sense, because someone who's ignorant (as in foolish) can make most people lose their composure, like that guy caused you to do. But instead of allowing your brain to become one major mass of reaction, it's best just to keep your cool when everyone else is losing theirs. People cast off restraint when they have no understanding. These same people are known to wonder aloud why their life is filled with turmoil in the aftermath of their foolish behavior.
It just doesn't pay to argue with them, or to push their buttons, while at the same time thinking that you're defending yourself, because people like that are always right in their own eyes. Whenever someone is always right in their own eyes, you're better off arguing with a brick wall. This is why it's best to leave them to fight with themselves and focus on the positive.

I'd bet dollars to donuts that people who are rude to people that work in the service industry has little to do with whether they've been in it themselves or not. It has to do with the accumulation of the many experiences they've had throughout their lives, not whether they've had experience working that kind of job or not.
How can you blame a person for being that way, when in a sense, her/his birthright promoted it? Most of it is based on that person's relationship with themselves, their family, their friends, teachers, etc...etc... All of these people make up the core that is central to how we all function and interact with the rest of the world at large. We are bits and pieces of every person we have encountered, which eventually is exposed when dealing with or connecting with others. That's what it all comes down to.
