Older woman defends young man against entitled lady after he helps with her groceries: 'Put your own groceries in your own car'

Sometimes, the only way to stand up to an entitled person is to have some backup. One of the ladies in this story may have been brash and audacious, but she met her match in an elderly woman with a strong sense of justice and ethics. 

It all began when the author was departing the grocery store from his weekly run and came upon the elderly woman. She was struggling to get her groceries into the back of her car and was struggling to get the attention of an employee, who was taking empty carts in the parking lot back inside. The author was not in a hurry and decided to help this woman with her bags like the "Good Samaritan" he was. He even tried to deny a tip from the older woman, but she forced him to accept the cash. 

Just when we thought the interaction was over, things took a bit of a turn. Another woman, who radiated with entitlement and a lack of respect for others, shoved her cart into the author's body and demanded that he help her put her bags in her car. She had witnessed him helping the older woman out and must have assumed that he worked there. Regardless, that is not how you ask for someone's help. 

While the author was prepared to stand up for himself and deny this entitled woman's request, he had some help of his own. The elderly lady watched the confrontation as it unfolded and refused to let the kind young man who helped her be intimidated by someone who was completely able to help herself.
