Interesting Work Day!

Work today was pretty interesting for me. I encounter some lady that was in her car, screaming for help.

The full story is this. I was reading a paper that a customer left behind, reading up about the World Cup, and all of a sudden I hear a lady yelling ""Help Me!" At first I thought it was some kids joking around, since I noticed a bunch of kids hanging around outside today during hours when they should be in school. But then, I decided to look behind me, I noticed that it was some old lady in a car that was screaming help. I ran over as fast as I could. I tried to ask her what she needed, but she was very unclear. For example, she asked me for assistance in getting up, so I did that, then after falling down, she decided that she was ok where she was. I was noticing things about her, scrawny body, tall, weird speech patterns, Then I asked her a few questions like "How long have you been in the car?" "Would you like a cart?" "Are you with someone?" and "Would you like to talk to one of my bosses?" The time question was kinda pointless, seeing as she was in a car without the keys on, as for my boss question, at first she said "yes" but then "no" to talking to my manager. As for my question of if she was with someone, she said it was her husband/boyfriend, wasn't clear enough for me to get a direct answe. Then I just asked her if she would be OK, then she said yes. I used that as a way to walk away and get one of my supervisors to come out and deal with the situation, after I walked away, she yelled for help again, which made me glad that I was getting my boss. After going inside and finding one of them, they called the store manager, and I lead them to the car where the lady was. After a while, they sorted it out, didn't follow up on it. As a reward from my job, they gave me a $5.00 ticket that I can use in the store.

In retrospect, I do wonder what happened with the lady in the car, seeing as how I thought that she was mentally unstable, could be from bad experience. I do hope that whatever was bugging her is getting resolved and that she recovers from whatever is ailing her.
