Yes. This is one hundred per cent real. It happened just the other day and let me say that though I'm new some may question my honesty and disbelieve where as others may not.
All I can say is say or think what you want. I'd rather earn your trust and tell you something you would like or dislike rather than tell you a big ass lie only for you to find out later and then have you get all pissy about it.
This is just one of those experiences that anyone here or elsewhere could possibly encounter. It may be boring to some, some may not care, some may actually care a lot. All I ask is read and come to your own conclusions.
Ok. So here we go.
I finished work the other day and needed to get some cash. Considering the banks were closed I had to go to an ABM. Seeing that my bank was the closest location to my workplace with 3 ABM's I naturally went there. As I arrive in the bank I notice there's a line up. Nothing unusual about that. In fact it was rather common at the time of the evening. It was I'd say 6:30 pm or so. The line was moving along fine. There was this young girl who was in front of me who was going to take the next available machine. We had just some idle chit chat, you know, "These banks should stay open later." " It's getting colder in the night." Just normal stuff.
Now I should say that the ABMs were in an enclosed area where you would have to swipe a card to get access to them in the after hours but because of the amount of people those at the end just held the doors open.
So I'm still making idle chit chat with the girl and notice one of the machines was available. I tell the young lady. "Hey hey. It's your turn." She dives into her purse to get whatever it was and as she's doing so I hear this noise coming from the doorway
This dude in a wheelchair rides himself through the open doors. I looked at him and he wasn't happy to begin with and was muttering and swearing. He looked 50ish. Anyways, he literally races to the open ABM
and just as he does that the young lady in front of me closes her purse and heads in the same direction.
They both meet. This is how it went:
Young lady: "Excuse me. I was next. Could you please wait your turn."
Dude in wheelchair: (very pissed off and without warning) "Look you F***ING B**** !!! Can't you see I'm handicapped and in a F***ING wheelchair!!. (then he points a finger at her) You F***ING accommodate ME!
Theres a few seconds of silence and the young lady is in shock and literally shrugs like this smiley .
Dude in wheelchair: I'm in a wheelcahiar so get your ass out of here.
Young lady: I'm.....(she then gets quiet and almost breaks into tears)
Oh yeah I had enough and I yelled out "HEY!!!!!!!!!!" and I was so wanting to step into this to help out but some guy was apparently even angrier than I was and I heard him say " Buddy! Get your ass back to the end.
It then went like this
Dude in wheelchair: Why don't you shut the f### up?
Some guy: Why don't you apologize to the lady?
Dude in wheelchair: Why don't you come here and say that to my face?
Some guy: (without hesitation walks to the dude in the wheelchair and screams) Why don't you apologize to the lady?
For about a minute or 2 there is a shouting match.....swearing and cursing and I say a few things and so do other people that were there who witnessed this. The young lady just stood by the crowd but tried to stay as far away from the dude in the wheelchair. Well, as I said, there were a few minutes of constant shouting and a security guard who was patrolling inside the bank hears all this and opens the bank doors and just blurts out.
Security guard: "Calm down clam down! What's going on here?"
The crowd gets silent. Immediately the dude in the wheelchair rolls up to the guard and explains how HE was next in line and that the young lady cut in front of HIM and all this crap. The young lady, finally, after all of this stepped up to the guard and said it wasn't true.
Security guard: So you were next in line or was HE next?
Young lady: I was
Dude in wheelchair. Liar!! I was
Young lady: I asked nicely if you could wait your turn.
Security guard: At this point I'll ask both of you to leave unless I know the truth.
As soon as the guard said that I and the other dude and almost everyone else that was there said that the young lady was first. Yeah ,wheelchair dude wasn't happy to hear the majority side with the girl and called all of us mofo's and anti handicapped and all that.
Here's the cruncher. Even after hearing all this the guard said "Ok everyone just go back to your place in line and let the man do his thing at the ABM." Well, wthe man in the chair went to the ABM but the guard stood right by him eyeing him like a hawk as was I and everyone else. He then rolled out of the place and as he did a few people flipped him the bird too.
Ok. So it's not an exciting story but I got too thinking...a person in a wheelchair .. yes....many people feel sorry for them but they shouldn't have first chance at things like in this incident. I mean, he looked normal, had a decent chair but boy was he pissy.
A friend of mine I told this too said if he were there he'd have just grabbed the guys chair and roll him back to the end.
That's it.
