An open source project conference where the project lead demanded a two-storey executive suite, with a rooftop patio and a four-poster bed under a glass dome. She violently trashed the suite so badly that the OSS project had to pay damages to the hotel. Not for the first time. https://t.co/2XjyTRTBEi

A stopover in Kuwait airport
A man with woman & attendants at the jewellery counter. He waved his arm out to say choose & the woman pointed to set after set of gold/precious stone sets. She barely looked at them. They were collected up for the attendants to carry. Not one smile. https://t.co/wyjHSbyriO

I’ve seen more obscene, but this one sticks out. I was at a sandwich shop picking up lunch for my office and there was a group of teenagers in front of me in line. When they got to the cash register, the teenager in front shot her hand back, and an adult handed her a black AMEX. https://t.co/kKszLsKVaQ
