I told her to change the attitude, it's not going to be tolerated. This goes on and on and finally I reached over and smacked her leg. Not hard, just a, "I'm not going to put up with this attitude" reminder. Now she cries, wipes her eyes and is magicly in a better mood. 5mins tops after the "smack". I look over and this older woman is clearly staring me down and pissed off.

Should I be ?? My being a and all. I'm just not sure anymore.
You should have said: "What? You want next?"
