This is a post completely different then the previous posts but I felt it was an important story. I was going through the
Target store like page and saw this very upsetting story that this lady had posted about her experience to Target on Monday August 24th. The story was shocking. The experience consists of a man with down syndrome in need of help with none to offer. Let me remind the readers, you wouldn't help this person because you get paid to help customers, you would help this person because it's the humane thing to do
(In My Opinion) and it's a polite thing to do. Read the picture above and if you aren't able to view that then read below.
The post read:
"Tonight at Target, I witnessed a scene that filled me with disgust and anger. I was at Target in Riverpark, and I was walking down the aisle, and there was a man in an electric wheelchair who had Down Syndrome. The battery on his Target scooter had died, and he was beginning to panic, rocking back and forth and whimpering. I stood there while three different Target employees walked past him, completely ignoring him. I stopped one young employee after he past the gentleman in the scooter. I pointed out to him that the man clearly needed help. I told him that it appeared that the battery had died on the scooter and that the man was beginning to panic, and asked the employee to go get the man some assistance. He said he would find him a new scooter and walked away, leaving the man sitting there, who was now beginning to cry. I walked over to the man and told him we were getting him a new chair, and then walked up to the front to find the Target empl
oyee who said he would help at the customer service desk talking and laughing with another employee. But he said he would take care of it, so I assumed he had already. I walked all the way out to my car, and then decided to take one more peek inside, just to make sure. I walked to the back of the store where the man was, and he was still sitting in the middle of the aisle crying and honking the horn. I got another employee who was walking past and explained to him that another employee had already promised to take care of it but was doing nothing. He walked off, and I sat with the man in the scooter and told him I would wait with him until help arrived. The first employee eventually returned and said that they were out of scooters, and pushed the man to the front of the store in his broken down Target scooter. I was walking out of Target, and as I was climbing in my car, two electric wheelchairs caught my eye. They had been left in the parking lot, one on the outside entrance to the store. My fifteen year old sister hopped on one of the scooters and drove it inside for the employees so the next time someone was in need of assistance, the Target employees had to put out the minimal amount of effort possible to help a customer. You're welcome, Target.
P.S. I was there to buy a $150 graphing calculator. Went home and ordered it on Amazon."
