I think it's possible. I feel like even the most normal people can have an off day when they just want to be assholes to people for whatever reason. (I've personally done this, and later regretted.) So maybe the sales folks or bartenders are seeing those people on their off days.

- AnimalMuppet 4y agoYeah. Been there, done that, trying to keep it well under 5%. But that's different. There are people who are nasty more like 50% of the time, or maybe even 95%. It's good to recognize that yes, that's me some of the time, but "quantity has a quality all its own", as Stalin (allegedly?) said. Too much of that attitude and/or behavior puts you in a different category. And even for people in that category, it's also important to realize that they have their 5% - or even 50% - where they aren't like that. That doesn't make you want to hang around them - even 50% jerk is too much for me to want to spend time with them - but still recognize that the other part is there, and appreciate it when you see it.
- flashgordon 4y agoAh I should have added wilfully nasty. The article I thought mentioned discarding "bad days". But then again are the malicious truly aware and holding themselves accountable for their maliciousness instead l just pointing to external circumstances.
