When I do a quick shop, I am forced to walk to the farthest area, end of last aisle, in food stores to get 2 basic, essential products - milk and bread. This is a deliberate, calculated strategy to force people to walk past all the food displays and all the aisles in an attempt to get me to impulsively buy food on the way there. Despite using a grocery trolley, I start to suffer pain on the way there. With all their ads about ‘taking care of their customers’, the don’t give a rat’s ass about vunerable people in our society at all. They offer nothing for the frail customers other than one grocery chain who offer a ‘no noise? low light’ half day, which costs them nothing. As usual, it’s all about profit. Grocery stores are not our friends, especially for us oldies.

Hi there,
I'm writing a story on what's it like to live with a loud voice. Are you someone who gets high-pitched whenever you are excited? Does your family constantly nag you to dial down your voice? Or are you someone who's annoyed by your loved ones' loud talking?
