Saw someone beating their kids in the parking lot today.

Real fucking heavy. Wanted to call the cops, but in the area I'm in, I felt pressured not to. When you're taking the bus to work on a closing shift in a somewhat shifty neighborhood, you don't take chances like that. Fucking loser parents made eye contact with me as they drove off.

I should have said something, right? Or is that against the Publix way? I know we're not supposed to stop shoplifters, right? So I guess we should look the other way on people beating their kid with some sort of stick, looked like a plastic rod or coat hanger or something.

I should have called the cops. But it was ten minutes before my shift started.

I should have called the cops.
