Must be my luck

I went to Panda Express, my mom wanted some rice and chow main. The line was a bit long and this man walked up to the door once I was inside. So I moved back a bit, he asked me to read a note in his hand. I shook my head said no, I didn't want to be bothered. He asked the lady behind me to read it, she said no. Then he just blocked the door no one to go in or out. I put my order in, still watching him, he says he is waiting or the police to come. I got to the end of the line and decided I would go out the fire door exit. Others just sat down to watch him. He the walked over to a table, and poured soda all over and shook the bottle some people got wet, but said nothing. He walked out the back door, and the police showed up after he had left, they did not go after him. I left quickly, this made me very uncomfortable. The lady behind me was very scared, and left with me.

That is so scary. I can't believe the police didn't even bother to go after him. He sounds like he could potentially be dangerous.

Nope, they could have caught up with him, they put their hands up and walked out.

@Srbageldog I guess, they didn't see nothing out of place, and the employees, said nothing, other than he left already.

@CookieMonster46 Must be why we have so many people with mental health issues.

These are dangerous times and so so we need to be extra cautious. Glad you got out of there safe.

@CookieMonster46 I might have thought that too as I have a wild imagination!

The reason I didn't read it, was because I watch to many movies, and thought it could be something like give me your money or i will kill you.. I have wondered what it said, but probably a bunch of nothing.

Maybe he was in need of your help (financial perhaps) and was too shy to ask it. Or maybe he was full fledged mental case. You did the right thing but I would have given a glance to that even if from a distance.

@CookieMonster46 I think you should have read that note even if without touching it.

The first thing everyone wants to know is what was on the note , it will remain a mystery.

I know what you mean...I went to Walmart, I have my little cart and my trolly dolly I'm pulling so it's slow going. I never have problems until this past weekend. Twice in one day a man was unnecessarily rude. First I was in the aisle then from behind he came near insisting to go in front of me...lots of room on the left, but he had to come next to me touch my cart as he pushed his way past me. Next another man who could have easily passed came straight for me, so I went way on the side waited by a display for him to pass... while passing this stranger said what you doing here. Twice in one day 2 strangers were, strange! So I'll pray and ask St. Christopher for protection and help always from now on!

@CookieMonster46 Not at all. The nutty ones are few and far between, so no problems. Never let anyone or anything stop you from enjoy living!

With all the crazy things going on in this world that would have really scared me. Glad he left but the police should have looked for him he could just keep doing this all day until he really snaps.

I agree they should have went after him, but it was like they didn't care, because they didn't see it.

I'm glad no one was hurt. It seems everyone remained calm in that situation, which was good.

What in the heck was that? lol. At least it was only a soda. As for Panda Express...some of the worst "Chinese" food I have ever eaten, which is why I put the word Chinese in parenthesis.

I have to agree it isn't the best, but the closet near by and she wanted that for lunch. I used to like them for the pot stickers, but they no long make them at this location.
