Upon handing over my passport for checking, I put away my mobile phone in my bag when she said in a sarcastic manner 'Let me know when you're ready'. At first I didn't hear/understand her so I said 'Excuse me?' to which she repeated in an angrier tone. She gave me dirty looks while flicking through my passport pages before throwing it back towards me. Of course, I was angry by that point so I went to grab my passport and boarding pass in a hurried manner to get away from her but she snatched my passport back and didn't give it to me for a minute, expecting me to apologise. She said I was being rude grabbing my passport in a hurry and expected me to apologise which I didn't! She eventually returned my items but hissed 'so f*cking rude' which perfectly described her disgusting manners. She was at the end of one of the passport control counters - a black woman with short cropped hair with black frame glasses. Sunday 16th Feb 2025
