Alright, my shop is in a three level shopping centre, on the top level.
There's a set of escalators out the front, and an elevator maybe 15m away. This is important, as the escalators clearly say no prams or shopping trolleys, yet everyday, I see idiots push/drag/hold their kids, in prams/pushers, up the escalators, instead of waiting the average of 45 seconds for the elevator. Note these are not the flat travelator style escalators, but the moving staircase type.
So yesterday I look up and notice a parent desperately grab their kid out of a shopping trolley seat, seconds before it goes crashing down the escalator. Had the kid been still stuck in there it could have been tragic. But it gets worse. People go/up down these escalators all the time - a flying metal trolley could really hurt!
By the time I join the crowd looking over the railing, I see some one grabbing stuff off the grond and putting it back in a baby's pram, a frantic mother, and a dad holding a crying baby.
It looks like another group of idiots were about to take their kid up,the escalator in the pram, but the trolley had taken out the pram.
Luckily it didn't seem too bad, kid was more crying in shock than anything, but how f*cking stupid can you be? I'm still shuddering.
