[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 150202, member: 84"] Star I avoid shopping on fridays and saturdays if I can help it. Our stores turn into nightmares as far as people and their shopping carts go. They stand in your way, knowing you'd like to pass, they zoom out in front of you so it's short of a miracle you don't slam into them, they back into you, and on and on. Couple of weeks back I did go shopping with Darrin. An exhausting event in itself. lol Not that he misbehaves, but is overly helpful and I'm not used to it anymore. While in the store Darrin is required to hold on to the side of the shopping cart at all times. I lost count of how many times he was nearly squashed or run over by other people and their carts! Each time he'd politely say "excuse me" and get a startled look in response. Except for elderly shoppers who made a huge deal over what a polite and well mannered young man he is. easy child is following in my footsteps as is Nichole with Aubrey. OH, and items on the TOP shelves!!! How many times have I come across someone in the electric carts or an elderly customer needing to get something off the top shelf and other shoppers ignoring them??? WTF? I'm not even 5 feet tall, reaching the top shelf is a challenge for me, but I still go out of my way to reach something someone might need. (I climb the shelves, a trick I learned working retail lol) For pete's sake it takes maybe a sec of your time but can mean a world of difference to the person you're helping. [/QUOTE]
