shallow inspiration for shallow hearts

Thrust me into oblivion! This thought, often conjures in the forefront of my mind on a daily basis when encountering the sea of countless selfish individuals across the coffee counter where I earn my living, if you can call it that. Lets just say, it pays the bills.
Today I had the pleasure of encountering one of these absolutely pleasant "humans." Humans in quotations because I am not completely sure I can justify actually referring to this woman as being anything close to that, but I'll let you be the judge.
Her name I do not know, so for lack of a better description lets just refer to her as Consumer Whore.
Consumer Whore, third back in line yells up to me. "Can I get an iced americano in less than two minutes?"
Barista replies somewhat annoyed "I don't know!"
Consumer Whore."Well I guess we will just have to see then won't we?"
Barista."I guess so!!"
What the Barista was thinking"Why dont you go pray about it, come back tomorrow and tell me what you find out...... Bitch!!"
Writing this out, I laugh to myself, but where does it end, when was it that a barista was reduced to the likes of a robot instead of a counterpart. Society cries hope, freedom, equal rights while swiftly contradicting themselves at every turn. I am not angry. I feel pity for all the children that have to grow up in these disillusioned "united states of america"
America has and always will be a destination for thousands, millions, maybe more. It is a country filledwith, entrepreneurship, legacy, fame and fortune. And we cant forget the meth or
porn, just to name a few. Yes! America has much to offer and i understand why one would
seek it out, after all I am included, I live in San Francisco California and I adore it....most of the time.
