Sorry to hear that and yes, my local place would do the same for me if
I needed the help but they don't do it routinely. There was a case
last winter where one of the lads who brings carts back into the store
from the coralls noticed an elderly woman who was having difficulty
getting across the icy sidewalks. He forgot about the carts and
walked her home, the manager said he was glad to know he had employees
like him who had hearts.
