Unfiltered Story #18613

I’m at the Apple Store in a mall with my mom and her friend while the latter gets her phone fixed. I have a headache so my mom gives me some Advil but since I had long ago finished my soda, I have no choice but to swallow them without liquid. i swallow the first one and immediately cringe. An employee notices my distress.

Employee: Oh sweetie, what’s wrong?

Me: I swallowed an Advil without any water.

Employee: Do you need water?

Me: Yes. (I give her my cup)

She takes it to the back of the store to the employees only section, fills it up and come back.

Me: Thank you!

I swallow my next pill without any trouble, and fifteen minutes later my headache goes away.
