You say, "Thanks a lot! I guess you decided I didn't want the rest of that!" in a loud and angry manner. He looks quite guilty, mutters an apology, and leaves quickly.OR
You say nothing. He says, "Hey, come on and let me buy you another coffee." You agree and follow him out of the washroom. The coffee trip turns into a long and enjoyable conversation. Over time, you become great friends with Mr Fastpee and you are close for the rest of your lives. You go hiking one day up a mountain, you break your leg and Fastpee carries you back down the mountain. Years after the mountain hike, you need a new kidney and Fastpee offers up his. He's the godfather of your children, a friend in times of need, and a lot of fun to be around. However, one day you come home to find Fastpee and your wife doing it like rabbits. You try to kill him on the spot, but he's much too strong for you. Your wife leaves you for him, and she gets custody of the kids. Old uncle Fastpee becomes step-dad Fastpee and your kids love him more than they love you. You get fired from your menial job the next day, and on the way home you try to kill yourself by jumping off a bridge. As your bad luck would have it, Fastpee is driving by, sees you, and stops you from jumping. You spend the rest of your miserable life in a phsyc ward.
The moral of the story: Don't be afraid to tell people how you really feel. You should have mouthed off to Mr. Fastpee.
when life hands you lemons, tell life what you really think about the lemons

Such an inspiring tale...
