Characters I have interacted with as a Walmart grocery runner: a thread

A lady who blasted Christian music from her stereo while I loaded groceries into her car. She did not offer to help me. As I left she yelled out the car window, “I hope you felt the spirit today!”

The man who cried while calling me a hero

The lady who yelled at me after I told her I couldn’t take her tip (if we accept tips we get fired)

The lady who tried to tip me A BIBLE so I would “have something to read later”

The man who’s trunk smelled so bad I literally gagged when I opened it

The woman who, instead of helping me load groceries, got out of her car and stood directly to my right while simply staring intently at the side of my face

The woman who replied to my cheerful greeting by shouting “why aren’t you wearing gloves?!” She then gave me a pair and made me wear them while I loaded her groceries. She did not say thank you or goodbye

The woman who laughed at me, a fool, who ran directly into a parking spot sign in the pickup area. I would have laughed at me too. I am okay

A man who ordered 120 bottles of water and nothing else
