Still shaking from this interaction and it’s still ongoing. I’m not sure this belongs here but here’s the story:
I (26f) work at a non-profit and our offices are inside a shelter building. My office happens to be in the very front mail room and I have a window that slides open right next to my door (think drive-thru window). Well today I was working in my office when a man comes up to my window aggressively waving an envelope at me and trying to open the door to my office. It isn’t uncommon for past clients to come back to our building angry so I did not open my door for safety reasons and chose to open my window a crack instead to see what he wanted. The conversation went as follows:
Me: “Hi, is there anything I can help you with?”
Boomer: stares at me and starts waving the envelope
Me: “I’m sorry, I don’t understand what you’re trying to say”
Boomer: “well if you opened your fucking door bitch. We got your mail at our building and I’m returning it”
Me: too shocked to say anything and still processing why I’m being called names Boomer: hands me the envelope “you’re fucking welcome bitch”
Me: “okay sir don’t come back here.”
Boomer: “don’t worry fucking cunt I won’t come back here”
Boomer: proceeds to exit my building and stand in front shouting “fuck you cunt” repeatedly and saying “I hope you get broken into”
At this point I started repeating “go away” until my shelter director came out, at which point he walked two doors down the street and went inside. My shelter director later went to report him and talk to his boss but they told her that he was angry and upset because I didn’t say “thank you” when he handed me our mail.
TLDR: A boomer aggressively tried to enter my office to return mail, called me names when I didn’t open the door, and harassed me because I didn’t thank him afterwards.
Edit: I’m not going to change my post because part of taking accountability is making sure I don’t brush it under the rug/pretend I didn’t do something but yes, I understand that using the word “boomer” was unnecessary. I want to make it clear that I never claimed this was because he was a boomer or that all boomers act this way. This isn’t a justification, I just want to clarify that that’s not my belief. Thank you to everyone for holding me accountable and thank you to everyone for your kind words following this incident.
Don't listen to the Boomers and Boomer-lites trying to act like it's a slur it's not lmao it refers to a very specific type of person and behaviors which this person was exhibiting with their entitlement. It's not an ageism thing it's attitude and behavior you're fine.
No one who comes out swinging first deserves any sort of manners and maybe learn to spell before telling other people they aren't eloquent 😂
Boomers are consistently the most entitled, sexist and needlessly aggressive generation.Nearly everytime something like this happens it's a fucking Boomer or someone displaying Boomer-esque behavior. OP isn't shitting on them for age but commenting on their entitled behavior. And people say we're snowflakes lmao

"a product of their generation" everything you said is null and void if you're gonna pull that excuse to justify awful behavior lmao. Also the years I've worked in retail and food service it's literally only old people that are assholes. Talk to anyone in customer service. The younger generations that get labeled "entitled" in the work place, more than half the time is because they're challenging the status quo, setting boundaries and not letting themselves be taken advantage of by companies but then Boomer-esques like yourself think that's entitlement because you don't have the backbone to do it yourself lmao. And ya young people are shit in ways too and have a lot of societal problems but that had nothing to do with anything mentioned before.
