HHow do you deal when people are acting rather regular but you sense hostility beneath their surface?

I was shopping at a thrift store and this is the second time here where im just looking at stuff in the mirror and this plder guy worker comes up and tells me when im done i need to put everything on a certain rack somewhere else in the store.

This second time it happened i was already doing that. Once he came up to me i just stopped doing it. I left the store. Pretty sure he saw me do it. So he knows where the clothes are and can grab them himself.

Its their job. Fuck em. Besides its not like you’re handling designer clothes its fucking goodwill.

Just be extra firm or polite, as the situation demands

What happened to the customer is always right?

I work in a similar role at my own job and I understand many entitled customers exist who are rude and treat workers poorly. However I feel that this man was making me uncomfortable. I was simply looking at clothes in a mirror. And he was approaching me with what I felt was hostility and basically talking to me as if he was my angry boss and I was misbehaving on the job. There wasn't even a please or hello or thank you. And the fact it happened two times now. I better just avoid that store.
