Sorry about your bad experience. Kindness goes a long way. I remember years ago in Walmart, an older couple was walking very slowly after checkout. I’m pretty patient with people and honestly thought she told me to go around them. So I said thank you and walked by them. Then she started talking loudly to her husband so I and everyone could hear that young people (I was 54) are so impatient and rude and someday they’ll know what it’s like to be old. I felt like turning around and telling her I had just been diagnosed with breast cancer that day and she should be thankful she was lucky enough to get old because not everyone is. But I didn’t and just walked out pretending I didn’t hear her. Had she been nicer I would have apologized for the misunderstanding. All that for just casually walking around them. She was just a bitter person.
