Sears

I'm from Wallace Street ALC and we are hosting a Benefit dinner/Auction for Sandra Burgett January 31. Sandra recently had to stop working due to her cancer and having to go to Cleveland Ohio for many surgeries. Since Sandra was also a EMT for 20 years in Gratiot County we went around to local businesses for donations for the auction, many gave. Being Sears is always promoting there the store of giving we figured they would donate something even if it was just a shovel or rake.
We walked in to tell the sales associate what we were there for, we didn't even finish when he said he would get the manager. Instead of the manager coming out to talk to us and let us finish, the associate came out and said we can't sorry. They were very rude, maybe it was because the associate was standing the eating and we were interrupting his lunch. Who knows! But I'm sure Sandra had many lunches interrupted being a EMT for 20 years, could of been for them or their families. All were looking for is to help the most caring, helpful person you'll ever meet and for people to be like that is wrong.
