Similarly, there's a restaurant in India with a big sign showing you how to order with sign language so you can order across the room and don't have to worry about pronunciation.
In Japan, you can choose a cart color based on if you'd like assistance or not...which is basically an introvert's dream.

Why the hell do you need to bring your dog to the grocery store?
Because your dog may well be the only friendly living thing you encounter while there.
To help with the self-checkout.
because in the car it will die from heat, and lashed in front of the shop it will bark at everyone
Because people are dumb. These fleaballs do not belong in stores.
Better than your screaming kids!
because they care about their pets and don't want to leave them home alone.
do not judge people from your POV.... its not everywhere the same and people may walk to the store... so they bring their pets on the walk as well.... would you leave your dog outside? i dont.
Sh#t happens.
Normally you'll feel unwell before you collapse, so you go to the bathroom, lock it, collapse and die. When I had my first aid course a few months ago teacher told us to look for people looking uncomfortable and leaving the room cause it's a thing that people get food stuck in their throat, leave the room cause they don't want to make a mess in front of their colleagues and suffocate outside. Humans are idiots when it comes to emergencies.
Those theater beds should be in the front so people can just lay down and look at the screen. Wouldn't be the worst seats in the theater any more.
Envious, aren't you?
