I saw a guy doing this recently (not to a barista, but someone that worked with the public) and the only thing that kept me from losing my mind on him was knowing there was no way the worker wanted to deal with him AND me blowing up at him. He eventually just left, but it was maddening to witness.
Also, IME upper middle and upper class people are about 1000% more likely to do this than anyone else. This douche sounded like the frattiest frat bro to ever frat.
Totally agree I used to do retail in a snobby area, got treated worse there than anywhere else
