With the advent of new technology, the gap between the generations has widened infinitely. This has created a difference in the thoughts of the younger generation. The values that were taught to them are fading out day by day and due to this, they have started to think that they are better than others. A young cashier had the same illusion but her bubble burst when she met this old lady.
What the lady did was something less imaginable and everyone present there was stunned.
Simple And Easy?
Dorothy is an aged woman with a simple mindset, having a sense of least dependence on others and getting the things done on her own. Her expectations from life are simplicity and ease of work. But does it always happen as we think it would?
The Shopping Day
Her day started like the others. She used to shop in bulk so that she could save time and money. The idea was the more she bought per shopping session, the less she would have to shop in total. According to her, this was meant to be another usual day at the store but one person changed everything.
Too Normal
She never prioritized riding around on one of those motorized shopping carts or have groceries delivered to her door, she handled it all by herself. As she went from shelf to shelf around the store with her cart, she filled it up with a variety of products from cosmetics and packaged food to fruits and vegetables.
This Or That?
Dorothy’s shopping was going pretty well. She had visited the supermarket a number of times and had no trouble finding all the things she required and wanted, keeping the confusion aside what’s needed and what wasn’t.
Done With Shopping
Her trip to the market was a success. Although after having so much confusion and walking she completed her shopping and proceeded to the cash counter to get the groceries billed and end her session there. Even the queue at the billing counter seemed to be moving quickly.
The Cash Counter
As she slowly pulled up to the front of the billing counter, she started unloading her stuff and the cashier didn’t look pleased and looked at her with a sigh as its probably the biggest load she had ever dealt with that day.
