What is wrong with today's youth in uniform?
So I went as I have done several times over the last 7 months since being back in Maine across the border to visit with a friend in New Brunswick. Normally when I come back into the States I show my passport and registration and all is peachy, but tonight I happened to have a young agent that just floored me in regards to apparent lack of respectful upbringing. This is how it went down pretty much verbatim:
US Customs Agent: You don't have a front plate. Me: Yes sir I definitely do. US Customs Agent: It is not a legal plate. Me: It isn't going anywhere and will not be replaced with anything else. US Customs Agent: It needs to be a legal plate. Me: How old are you if I may ask? US Customs Agent: I am 23 why? Me: That explains it. US Customs Agent: Excuse me? Me: While you were learning fractions, the states, and counting your milk money I was taking fire while performing classified missions in an undisclosed location 10,000 miles away. Instead of giving me shit for my "non-legal" plate I would think you could instead say, "thank you for your service sir, have a nice evening". I could then reply with, "thank you for yours and helping to keep our borders safe." US Customs Agent: Hear is your passport and registration. Have a safe drive home. /end rant
