Just now, Sitting in Kinko's

Woman at
the Fedex counter, which is right by the bathrooms there.

She starts coughing

"OH MY GOD! THE CHEMICALS!! I CAN HARDLY BREATHE!! *COUGH* *COUGH*"

People turn heads, concerned as continues to cough and retch, face contorted in pain.

"THIS IS HORRIBLE!!! THE SMELL IS *KILLING* ME!! *COUGH* *COUGH*"

However, she does not leave the area.

A Kinko's worker starts walking towards her to give assistance, asking "Are you ok, ma..?" until the woman starts screaming..

"You *ASSHOLES*!!"

In mid-stride, the girl turns around saying to herself "ah. crazy. ok."

"I AM GOING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS!! THIS SHOULDNT BE HAPPENING IN *BERKELEY*!!!!!"

This goes on for a good five minutes as she rails against the assholes who put the faint whiff of cleaning fluid in her path.

The Kinko's worker suggests she leave the area to be able to get away from 'the smell', the woman doesnt immediately comply as she continues to scream and continues to fill out the FedEx airbill..

Only after a few more sugestions does she do this, not stopping her coughing and tirade.

As she leaves, railing that she is going to complain to the highest of powers, a customer shakes his head, and mutters "Only in Berkeley".
