Quick and Easy

The only thing interesting about this post is that it happens rarely enough to be worth writing about.

I went to Ace Hardware today. They had a display of annuals in the crosshatched space next to a handicapped parking permit spot. I went in, I asked for a manager. I walked out of the store with him and pointed out how the crosshatched space was needed in order to unload a wheelchair or walker, or to lower a lift. I asked if they had thought of that when they put the display there.

No, they hadn’t, he said, and moved it.
