What if they had been busy all day doing for others and that was the only time they had to annoy you? I try to help them in the stores because I think of them like my parents. My mom died in 07 just 3 months short of being 103. Plus, that will be us one of these days.
I prefaced my post with and “I’m gettin’ old”....and, also...any person at any age who is helping others all day long with THEIR lives...is NOT old....I think you know what I’m talking about....(PS...people like my mother in law, who thinks the world owes her, who has been catered to for her whole life, and complains about how crowded it is when she goes shopping....well...duh....go when most people do NOT go.)
