On
September
17,
2022,
I
was
visiting
Florence
for
half
a
day
as
a
tourist.
I
saw
this
cute
little
church
around
the
corner
and
followed
the
line
assuming
it
was
the
ticket
office
for
this
specific
location.
The
man
sitting
inside
the
ticket
office
started
yelling
at
me
when
it
was
my
turn:
"which
one
do
you
want
to
visit
?"
I
asked
him
politely
besides
this
church
what
other
place
he
referred
to.
He
then
rolled
his
eyes
and
had
such
a
hateful
look
on
his
face,
again
yelling
at
me:
"I
sell
tickt
for
another
place
too.
which
place
do
you
want
to
visit?"
So
I
told
him
I
would
visit
the
one
the
ticket
office
is
located.
He
threw
the
ticket
at
my
direction
after
I
made
the
payment.
One
can
feel
his
anger
in
his
yelling
tone
of
voice
and
contempt
on
his
angry
face.
He
seemed
very
friendly
to
a
white
woman
before
me
(smiling
and
allowing
her
to
ask
him
questions
and
not
getting
agitated
quickely).
It
did
make
me
wonder
whether
it
was
because
I
am
a
colored
person
?
My
ticket
was
for
10:30
am
so
I
decided
to
walk
around
town
to
wait
for
my
group
time.
unfortunately
it
started
raining
heavily
as
I
walked
across
the
bridge.
When
I
managed
to
return
in
the
rain
it
was
a
little
after
10:30
so
the
back
door
for
the
tour
was
closed.
I
walked
to
his
window
and
explained
the
situation.
This
time
he
obviouly
was
furious.
He
threw
the
ticket
at
my
direction
at
the
mercy
of
his
"kindness"
after
he
decided
to
let
me
join
a
later
group.
Such
insult
did
not
serve
me
well
so
I
decided
to
visit
other
sites
in
town.
I
just
told
myself
considering
the
money
as
a
donation
to
the
church.
The
ticket
agent
works
at
a
religious
site
which
is
faith
based
yet
it
seems
he
has
tremendous
amount
of
anger
and
hatred
in
him.
I
am
only
here
for
half
a
day
to
visit
a
city
supposed
to
be
a
place
of
appreciation
of
Italian
arts.
The
ticket
agent's
poor
service
made
those
who
was
mistreated
by
his
bad
behaviors
felt
like
dealing
with
an
angry
mob.
I
beleive
the
poor
behavior
of
this
specific
church's
ticket
agent
is
not
a
good
representation
of
Florence.
World
travelers
share
their
experience
upon
returning
home.
Hope
the
management
address
this
problem
so
other
customers
won't
have
to
be
abused
by
him
any
more.
