Dumb count

quote:

Friday morning he picked up a female passenger from Amazon in Romulus, Mich.

"I said how you doing because I ask that to everyone. She said, 'I'm sick.'"

William, getting over a cold himself, offered her some peppermint oil. He and his wife are big into essential oils after her brain aneurysm three years ago.

"I put it on [a tissue] and I said, 'All you got to do is [sniff] and pass it over your nose and it will help you breathe.'"

William had no idea she was taking a picture for a warning post later on, and that she was scared for her life.

Well honestly, that’s a dumb thing for that driver to do to a stranger and the woman was smart to think enough to not sniff it. I can hope and pray that my wife would react the same way in a similar situation.

Well to be honest I'm not sniffing anything a stranger gives me.

"Here...sniff this" to a stranger was a dumb idea.

No good deed. The driver is probably a good man and just wasn’t thinking about what this could be perceived as.

She might be totally wrong but she's also got a point.

Judging by the grammar and sentence structure of that post I'm going to guess that woman isn't the smartest thing in the world and wanted the attention she is getting.

She was right to be scared.

He didn't realize when he was trying to help someone, he came off like a psycho.

Sounds like a big misunderstanding.

That is how you get chloroformed and wake up with missing kidneys.

In all seriousness, the driver may have had no ill intent but it is not a good look to give a stranger a rag and say sniff.

Personally, I dont blame a woman warning others about a random driver giving her a napkin and telling her to "smell it"

It's hard to disagree with anything anyone has said so far in this thread.

I would like to believe he was really just trying to help

and she has every reason to fear the worst

now how this should've played out is she goes "no thank you"... he goes back to driving... everyone goes about their day

if he pushes it any further... then there becomes real cause for concern for her

and now b/c she just needed to go to social media... this becomes another "no good deed goes unpunished" lesson

He handled it wrong and came across as creepy. She overreacted. Seems like he was a nice guy trying to be helpful but had a miscommunication with a raging SJW loon. She gets the attention, he likely gets fired.
