A disabled person found themselves targeted by an angry customer after the customer thought that their “disability lanyard” was a part of their work uniform. When confronted with the fact that he was wrong, he doubled down on the error and became increasingly agitated and angry at them and everyone else who tried to tell him otherwise. This bizarre display of behavior was displayed in a story that was posted to r/IDontWorkHereLady. A subreddit where people share stories such as this where they…

"I can't believe they only pay you $9.50/hr to do all that work!"
