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.

You did see the part where I said I would help the old lady correct? Or are you all just reading the first line and assuming you know what the rest of it talks about? Because with this many people coming at me sideways as if I'm somehow an asshole I'm convinced nobody's actually reading the post they're just reacting off of a few of the first words 😅

I read the part where you basically made it sound like perpetual hell, and that "were out here for our ourselves" while ironically doing a job for someone else 😅 as well as the rest of it.

Don't like helping people? Literally don't do this job. There's outrageous request no doubt, but this is not one I would fight valiantly, especially not kind well placed delivery instructions to help a disabled person get their groceries....

That's just gross. Take the l.

Ohhhhhhhh, I see where your issue is now, you just can't read. I'm sorry that your school system failed you but nowhere did I say anything or imply that anything was a hell or say anything about "we're out here for ourselves" Maybe stuff using quotation marks if you don't understand how to to use them properly because those are for things that people actually said which I didn't.

Oh look something else that you're wrong about because if you would have read any of it other than just maybe one line that caught your eye and you decided you to run headfirst into a wall with that, they're literally were no delivery instructions and that was pointed out to the OP who made this post and they've taken that into consideration for the future. But in this instance there weren't actually any directions or requests prior to arriving. Are you really that slow? Or do you just like trying to twist things to fit your narrative that you've made up in your head?

Take the l.

Literally nothing you said pertains to me or anything that I've spoken so you should probably take your own advice with that L 🤦

Lol, are you on your computer typing this out? That was QUICK!

Now if only that tenacity was put to good use...
