Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings in the wonderful city of Windsor
During dinner my husband and I will often share stories or events that we encountered throughout our day, I was so flabbergasted by the story he told me today that I had to share. I'm not sure how I would of handled it, but I don't think I could of ignored it as he did. While at the Dougal Wal-mart this morning he got in line to pay for a large and small bag of dog food. Ahead of him was two women who appeared to be Mother and Daughter. The daughter having a small baby strapped to her chest and the older women pushing the cart with a small toddler sitting in the cart. Their cart was fairly full, but not stuffed and ahead of them was another lady who was in the process of unloading her cart and checking out. The ladies ahead of my husband had yet to unload their cart and while waiting the younger women went behind my husband and began leafing through the items and trinkets that are always at checkout. My husband felt a bit uncomfortable as she was in his personal space, but he ignored and waited for his turn to check out. While she (the daughter) continued to browse the elderly women turned and said to my husband "You might as well go ahead of me as you only have a few things." Before my husband could respond, which was going to be, no that's Okay, the daughter yells in a flat sarcastic tone "NO!!" She then went up to her cart and began unloading it and the older women turned and avoided any eye contact with my husband. How would you handle it?? I know one thing, someone missed out on some lessons on how to treat and respect other people and their personal space.
