Here again is another example of a blind person creating their own problems.
Decide not to feel resentful and follow our suggestions so you can solve your
shopping and other life issues challenging you. Many sighted people also chose
to feel resentful and are now paying the price of harboring such feelings
towards those trying to help them. Don’t follow in their whose.<o:p></o:p></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="COLOR: black">Hi, I a sorry to hear of your
experience. I have actually not going into grocery stores since the start of
the pandemic. But my parents have occasionally. Curb-side at Walmart has been
a big hit for my area…the amount of times we’ve gotten “Out of stock” or “we
can substitute with”… is far outweighed by the amount of times we will have
the order right on the 1st try without ever actually going in. I would
definitely understand if you would rather remain in person when doing your
shopping though. And as for that, I would think that’s just an associate
having an issue. Regardless of this we still need to buy groceries so you did
the right thing by contacting a supervisor. I would encourage you to continue
doing so. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

Chris Jones from Sedro-Woolley.<BR>Earlier this afternoon I went to Walmart
to pick up a very few items and to get some Subway sandwiches.<BR>I met a
greeter who found me a young lady who gave me some very strange
information.<BR>She indicated that Walmart no longer provides customer
assistance in shopping and that everything needs to be handled on-line.<BR>I
was told that this has been their policy for somewhat over a year.<BR>I was
shocked, but went ahead and asked this lady to show me the Subway area,
which she did.<BR>I completed that portion of shopping and, when I got home,
called a manager of Walmart at the Mount Vernon store.<BR>He explained that,
due to Covid restrictions, an associate could not be involved with such a
shopping trip for any more than 15 minutes.<BR>I asked if I had a short
list, if someone could obtain products for me.<BR>He said that if I needed a
very few items he could probably grant me an exception to policy.<BR>I do
not regularly shop Walmart and I have never found such a reception at
Costco, Fred Meyer, Safeway or any other store which I frequent.<BR>Is there
anyone who can explain this type of treatment to me? Is this a Walmart
thing, or does this occur at many other stores where folks shop?<BR>Feel
free to respond here, or if you'd like to e-mail me privately, my e-mail
