That's known as punishing the wrong person, a very crybaby soy move. You don't make life miserable for other employees because one particular employee sucked. You focus on the one who caused the problem.
Right, I'm sure that manager wakes up everyday and loves nothing more than having to mediate conflict between a 50 year old grown man who can't navigate a cell phone app and a young guy who probably lost his job because he couldn't help laughing in your gook face for being ridiculous.

Didn't you just win like 60k? Get a nice meal or two for dinner and be thankful.
We aren't talking about the manager. I'm saying that uttering something snide and walking out just punishes myself and whichever unfortunate sap is tasked with putting back everything I abandoned.

Walking out like that only works if it's inconveniencing the guy who did it.

For example, I went to a NYC pizzeria one time which is aimed at tourists, so they don't give a shit about repeat business. The idiot gave away my pizza to someone else, even though I showed up exactly when he told me.

I asked him, "Can you at least remake mine right now, since I was ahead of everyone else's order you're currently about to make?"

The idiot said no, that I'm going to be behind everyone else. No matter what I said, he kept repeating "You ain't special", and "You gonna wait like everyone else."

I finally said, "Okay, fine, how long?" He quoted me 30 minutes so I said I'd be back, just so he'd make the pizza and I'd never show up for it. I hadn't paid yet. Just wanted the asshole to make it for no reason.
