This just happened

A student in a wheelchair was waiting for the elevator. The doors opened and I heard him ask, "Going up?" I assume someone nodded yes, because he started to roll in. Then he had to back out because the elevator was too full. Nobody offered to exit and walk up the one flight of stairs to the fourth floor so he could get on. Not one person cared enough to make room for him because that would've meant leaving the elevator and walking up one flight of stairs.

I am horrified. And sick. And sad.

One flight of stairs. Don't try to tell me that all six individuals on the elevator were themselves incapacitated or otherwise unable to walk up one flight of stairs. You and I both know that's horseshit. It was just laziness. And carelessness. And lack of compassion for a fellow human being.

Sick and sad.
