yes, they have freedom of speech.
makes me embarrassed and angry. it's one thing they don't "care" about me, but to actively go out of their own way to laugh @ me - rude and disrespectful.
and so what? i can't be like Rolando (kayla's servant) and put on "smoke and mirrors" every time i think/feel like someone "disrespected" me. @ home depot (& everywhere else) i have absolutely zero authority. i do not have the legal "right" or moral "right" to ban customers from home depot and even if i did, there would be no way to enforce it.
yesterday, a day laborer had the nerve to chuckle wisely when i tripped over a pothole in the parking lot. (rolls eyes). the day laborers not even supposed to be in the parking lot. i don't feel safe with all those day laborers loitering around, all day long, every day. i do not understand why home depot allows day laborers in the first place.
Oh, I feel this. I had ankle fusion surgery this summer and my recovery has been complicated. I was so proud the first time I went to the grocery store and was able to walk my cart around without using my crutches. When I got outside, I was crossing the street with two cars waiting patiently for me to cross with my cart. It was not an issue until this aggressively helpful woman came over and said, "Do you need a hand?" I said no thanks but she grabbed my cart and took it from me. I was so mad and embarrassed because I needed that cart to walk and my crutches were in it, so ... Now the people in the cars are getting angry because they really have to wait a long time and I'm hurting my ankle trying to go faster and so embarrassed at the way I had to limp, like I can't get my foot off the ground. She didn't even look back to make sure I was ok. Sometimes being seen is worse than being ignored.
