This story is so rad. Especially considering the follow up here: http://sparkiepop.tumblr.com/post/276977096/do-you-guys-remember-how-i-helped-that-elderly
I got a message on my phone over the weekend from an elderly lady in South Carolina requesting a replacement copy of her dishwasher manual. I don’t know how she mistook my outgoing message for that of a major appliance company, but she did. She left her phone number and full address and sounded like she really needed to be helped out, so I looked up the company’s information and gave them a call. I asked the apathetic customer service woman to send her a copy. “IT’S ON OUR WEBSITE MA’AM.” I explained to her what happened and told her that I doubted the elderly lady even knew what the internet was. Then I got the idea to just print the manual out myself and send it to her.
So Mary Carpetner of South Carolina, Ima hook you up, girl.
