I just got CUSSED out at Wal-Mart for pronouncing someone's name wrong. MAN AGE calls me RUDE!!! WTF?!

Omfg... So I'm at Wal-Mart getting a few things for my class (I'm a teacher) and I go and get checked out by this RUDE woman. I'm used to the employees being rude at Wal-Mart so that isn't even the issue. After I am checked out ANY WHERE I always say thank you and address the cashier by their name. It's the polite thing to do IMO.

This young woman's name was spelled Tyrica. I said

"Thank you Ty-Reeka (pronounced that way) and she says

"What the hell did you just call me?"

I was flabbergasted by her attitude. I told her I was just reading the name off of her name tag. She says, verbatim...

"Bitch my name is Teer-icah (pronounced) not Ty-Reeka (pronounced)

I would've apologized but this woman called me a bitch for mispronouncing her name. It was an honest mistake!!! Okay, so now I'm pretty heated myself. I asked for a manager. Tyrica gives me a dirty look and calls over her manager. 'Loretta' comes and asks what the problem is and I explained it to her. She DEFENDS Tyrica's actions and says she'd cuss me out if I mispronounced her name and Tyrica had every right to do what she did and I'm the one being rude. Unfucking believable... I asked if there was another manager and she tells me to LEAVE HER STORE. On my way out she yells to the security.

"Make sure you check her damn receipt"

Omg... I HAVE NEVER been treated like that. I'm calling the corporate number in the morning. I don't know if it's a race thing or what (they were both african-american) I am white. Or maybe they were having a bad day or what but OMG. Still in shock.
