I'm too nice.

Today, I was walking down the hallway at work to go to the bathroom while this little timid old lady walks up to me and asks me where the gate for Texas was (if you didnt know, i work at the airport). I told her that i didn't know and if she had her boarding pass i could help her out. Usually when a little old lady stops you and asks for help, they're usually nice right? WRONG.

This little old lady was sooo mean to me. She yelled at me saying that she didn't know where her boarding pass was and that it was with her husband. While we were walking, i asked her how he husband looked like so the search for this gate could be easier for both of us (since i really had to go). She looks at me as if i was dumbfounded and said that she did not know how her husband looked like in a mean voice (you would think that i'd leave about now). At this point I wanted to leave so i tried to tell her that i had to get back to work or i was going to be late from work. Instead of asking nicely for me to stay with her she says "YOU CANT LEAVE ME. YOU HAVE TO HELP ME. YOU HAVE TO." then grabs my wrist and grabs it really hard.

by then you would think i would just yank my arm away and leave ...

but i didnt. I let her squeeze my wrist super hard while she kept yelling at me telling me to find the husband she can't describe for 20 mins.

Finally reaching a starbucks, her husband looks at us and just pointed at the old lady. she let go of my wrist and never said thank you.

what kind of world do we live in?

but hey,
at least i helped someone today even though i didn't do anything,
