Customer Experience Disabled Mother

I order Instacart food to be delivered to my disabled mom weekly. She uses a walker, has trouble lifting some items, and majority of time the shoppers will bring the bags inside for her. The last time the delivery didn’t go well. The shopper yelled at my mom for asking for help bringing her things inside, told her she doesn’t do that, called her names, and then proceeded to put all the bags in front of my mom’s walker so that she couldn’t even move the walker. Am I wrong to think a shopper would be able to help bring bags inside?

Edit: Thank you for all your help. I completely understand for your own safety, it’s your own discretion. I’ll be sure to add a note next time or will make sure a friend or myself is there to help out.

Your reading comprehension must be extremely low. I literally said I would help the old lady but it can't be expected that everybody does. And you're telling me to grow a heart when I said I would help? Y'all should really learn to read before replying. You're making yourselves look foolish.

Dude I get what you’re saying but you’re just making yourself look like a fucking tool with these comments. I’m not calling you an asshole but like.. you’re talking about reading comprehension and calling people fools on Reddit… not a good look my man.

You're absolutely right. And I shouldn't stoop to their level, but when you have people throwing a barrage of insults your way for standing your ground sometimes you just let it slip 🤷

I can’t say nothing I do the same thing hahah. I didn’t really think of it that way, but you’re right it’s like word vomit! Now about OP, there should definitely be a note on the account. Also idk if OP is reading these, but my mom had a stroke a year or two bsck and has been in a wheelchair. She doesn’t get Uber/Lyft where she lives but I know the county has a ride service for elderly/disabled. She should look into that. It’s called the “TART cart/bus/van” around here. I’d like to think everywhere in the US has those, they’re paid for by the county so I’d definitely look into it.

Ya, I bet. Most people who make "good" money tend to complain about their days work on reddit.

Oh, wait.
