Just gotta take a moment to rant here about the ignorant lady I met today at Nordstrom Rack.

So I’m in line with just 2 items. The people in front of me were Asian (I’m only half, but look full Asian) and there was a white woman behind me with a stroller and her (I’m assuming 2 y/o) son. So the Asian woman and her 2 kids got called up to the register and then another cashier said “I can help who’s next!” And this lady with her son start moving like cutting right past me! I’m like “excuse me, but I’m next” and she gave me this dirty look and said “Aren’t you with them? 😒” and I told her no, then proceeded to move toward the cashier. Then this woman said that I should let her go first because she only has 3 things and she had a kid. So I told her no, that I only have 2 things, and congrats, but I’m first 🤷🏻‍♀️ So I walked away and paid and left. But my god, I can’t even begin to explain how many times people just assume that I’m with some other Asian people just because I look like it. Like okay, I’m Asian looking, yes, but if I don’t walk with them, then why assume I’m apart of that group? And what does a kid have anything to do with going first? He was fine and just chewing on a toy, happy as can be. Maybe if it was a baby and he was fussy, but still, with that nasty attitude and tone she had, there’s no way I’d let her go ahead of me. Like this woman had the audacity to get all annoyed with ME when she was the one in the wrong. I’m just so done with people grouping all Asian looking people together and thinking that just because they have a kid(s) that they get a free pass to be in front. Like sorry, but no, it doesn’t work like that. Rant over 😠
