I would first like to say I'm sorry! I work with people like that all day long and it is horribly irritating. I say "Hello, how are you?" and they ignore me. I say, "Have a great weekend!" They say, "uh-huh". But, I have gotten the satisfaction of telling someone to f*** right off and it felt fantastic! So, if you can get away with it, go for it! If not, I hope you have a GREAT weekend and THANK YOU for being so kind and patient, people suck!

Keep your chin up and try and stay positive. Difficult sometimes, I know, but you never know what has happened to somebody to make them rude. They could be having the worst day of their lives, and if you tell them to f*ck off, that's not going to make it better.
I'm a firm believer in karma - if you're nasty to somebody, it'll come back somehow and bite you on the bum. If you're nice to them though, that will also come back to you (hopefully not as a bite on the bum though!).
So, take a deep breath, count to 10 and then smile, smile, smile. Try imagining the rude person in a really embarrassing situation - think of them with no clothes on, or sitting on the toilet, or falling on their ar5e in a big deep puddle, or getting tweaked on the nose by a clown... whatever takes your fancy. Chance are, if you can laugh at them (in your mind), you're not going to be rude back to them.
Try keeping calm thoughts in your head - get a copy of The Little Book of Calm and keep it in your desk or handbag, anywhere where it's handy. If you're having a bad time, take a couple of minutes to flick through it and I guarantee you'll find a thought that will help.
Is there anything you can do to give your work environment a more peaceful ambience? Can you keep a plant on your workstation, or a photo that has particularly good vibes.
One last thing to try - a few drops of a calming essential oil (eg lavender or Roman camomile) on a tissue and keep it in your pocket or up your sleeve. When you feel stressed, close your eyes, take a sniff and relax your shoulders.
I hope you got through today OK and have chance to relax tonight & over the weekend.

OK first off, u never know whats on that persons mind, as to why they are acting so rude. that might be just how they were brought up. but the old stand by always works for the most part. Kill them with Kindness and a huge smile. Then they would think about how they were acting, and might realize that they were being a jerk. !!!!!! I deal with the public 40 a week, and i can totally agree with you. But that's what i do. Don't let their action be your reaction!!!!!!! You should be much better than that person. Have a awesome holiday !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Too right!!! Like when you hold the door for somebody, let someone past etc just common courtesy and they dont say thank you. Its so rude and i'd never have the cheek to not thank someone even for the smallest thing. Hang on in there though because if you loose it its like they've got the better of you and they dont deserve that

Every time somebody tries to talk to you / walk up to you / whatever start talking about this cold you have and how bad you feel (no matter what they are talking about and/or want) then start talking about the RASH that was on your leg and now its on your feet, the other leg, all up your torso, and is spreading to your arms and how you went to the doctor and he took some scrapings but the tests haven't come back yet, but you know its contagious because now your best friend has it.......ect......then watch them run away as fast as they can and stay the hell away.

it sounds like you are in the wrong job, if you dont have the patience, or the gift of talking an angry person around to a satisfied one then you shouldnt work with people wether they are customers or colleagues.
Take a good look at yourself...are you a nice person to work with? or are you a people person in your customers eyes? or is it that the job is not your cup of tea. if you dont like the actual job you wont be nice to people for very long even though it is your own fault for taking the job not theirs

I have been there. You can smile ever so sweetly at them and make anything you say sound like f*** of & die. Examples: Thaaaaank you, Have a VERY nice day, bite you very much, I know it is exremely childish but it is a stress release. I like the bite me one when I am on the phone with a real butt!

happy Birthday!! nicely i might supply you the certainty that Roddick might win Wimbledon this 12 months frightening Murray in the quarterfinals, Nadal in the semifinals, and Roger in the finals! different than that i might supply you a date with Roddick and a punching bag in the form of Andy Murray.

Cheers
