We were just discussing disabilities in relation to shopping, and a question popped into my head. Is it wrong to help a customer who is permanently or temporarily disabled?

There seems to be a very similar breakdown of percentages of physically disabled customers, both temporarily and permanently, who either gladly accept the help offered to them, or blow off the clerk who’s offering help by saying something along the line of: “Do I look like I need your help!?” (um, yes you do…) or “I can manage by myself!”, in a snappy tone of voice. Sure, many customers refuse the help politely, but mainly it’s “thank you so much”, or “go away, I don’t need you help”. It’s because of the angry customers with disabilities why I’ve asked this question.
