New Rules At Market Basket
So I just got back from the dance so don't judge me if this makes absolutely no sense. I still can't hear myself think and can't really concentrate on this right now. Last Sunday, when i went in to work, my manager told me that we have a new policy. Every time that we bring carriages into the store, we are forced to offer to help someone out to their car with their cart. I know what you are thinking. So what? Help some elderly people out with their stuff, its the nice thing to do. Well, the not so practical part is that we HAVE to ask every time, so if everybody at the checkout are big guys that obviously do not need help, I have to help them anyway. Believe me, when I tried not to because they were all big guys that didn't need help, my manager made me go up to one and ask. If some random guy in a shirt and tie asked to help you outside, would you say yes? Over four hours of asking, zero people accepted the offer. Not very surprising to me, but you can think what you can think. That's all that I have for now but I'll find something else for next week I'm sure.

I'm sure they went home and talked about the kind young man who offered to help them with their groceries. You helped spread kindness, Max.
