Along the lines of my Dear Cashier post from this week, Lindsey at SMB hit the nail on the head with this post! As well written and true as her article is, it’s the comments on her post that blew me away. “You should hire a sitter if you’re unable to perform simple tasks with your children present” was the first negative comment and it went on from there. As a former retail employee myself, I can say that her assessment of this person’s life is probably accurate – or at least some of the time. But I think the bottom line is this, the guy’s job is to be helpful and he wasn’t and that’s not ok. It is hard to be a parent and it’s really hard to accomplish a simple task like a Costco run with one kid, let alone two with one in the baby Bjorn. Trying to keep everyone happy, quiet, from running away or being stolen is a job in itself – add lifting heavy objects a good foot from your body is damn near impossible.
PS – what the hell is wrong with people?!

I found her comments about this guy, whom she doesn’t really know to be super rude. Plus, she sounds a bit nuts. I wouldn’t take two kids to the grocery story, let alone Costco. Shoot, I barely make it out of Costco alive with just myself to watch over.
Ok, I’ll give you the comments about the employee. But NEVER take two kids to Costco or on an errand?? Kiddo free errands are just not a luxury every mom gets!
agree!
I like the helpful information you provide on your articles.
