As the title suggests, OP visited a shoe store today with the simple aim of finding a new pair of running shoes. They chose a local shop renowned for its affordable, high-quality shoes from past seasons. With a preference for well-fitting, comfortable shoes that wouldn’t break the bank, OP eagerly began exploring the store’s selection.

While examining various options, OP found a pair that looked promising. As they began to try them on, a sudden and loud outburst from the end of the aisle startled them. Expecting to see a frustrated parent reprimanding a child, OP was surprised to find no child present. Despite the disruption, OP decided to focus back on finding the ideal running shoes. However, the woman’s voice continued to escalate with increasing anger.
