[QUOTE="1905, post: 623959, member: 2668"] husband and I went out to eat last night at Olive Garden. I had never even eaten there. But, there was this deal where you can eat one entree there and for free they will give you another one to take home (from a select menu), plus you can eat all the soup and salad you want so I was planning on taking both entrees home. PLUS, there is a $10 off $30 coupon you can use alongside all that. We had to order a dessert to reach the $30, so for $20 that was a huge amount of food.We'll be eating this for days! While we were eating, a man and his grandson were there, and so were at least 30-40 others. The boy suddenly shouted out for help, his grandfather had slumped over and was falling out of the chair. I ran over and grabbed the grandpas underarms and tried to keep him from falling, husband ran to get someone to call 911. He came back and helped me, I couldn't hold the man's weight. We wanted to lay him on the floor, I didn't know. The boy was shouting. The man woke up disoriented, sweating, we were still holding him though when the ambulance arrived and husband offered to call people for the boy. He had a phone and he called his mom. Not one other person even looked up or offered any help at all. Nobody made eye contact or tried to comfort the boy, everyone just ignored it all. I am still in disbelief that people could be so callous, really, a boy is shouting, "Grandpa" over and over. 5 feet away people were just eating and enjoying a quiet conversation. Olive Garden gave us a $25 gift card as we were leaving. [/QUOTE]
