I was shopping the frozen foods section of Costco. I stumbled upon a bag of frozen soup dumplings (Mila) that were not in the section they were supposed to be in. They were peeking out from behind boxes of Corn dogs. I had been looking for these soup dumplings because FB ads has been bombarding me with them for weeks. So when I saw the one bag behind the corn dogs, I grabbed them and put them in my cart.

A couple seconds later, some woman stops me and says, “Excuse me, I was saving that bag to grab after I finished the rest of my shopping because I didn’t want them to melt.”

I told her I didn’t understand what she meant.

She reiterated, “That was the last bag of dumplings, so I hid them so I could do some other shopping and come get them later. So can you please give them to me?”

I replied, “Sorry, no. I Found them, and I want to buy them. You are welcome to another bag if there are any left. But this bag is mine now.”

She says, “You’re a real jerk, you know that?”

I replied, “Yeah, I might be. But I’ll be a jerk eating some delicious soup dumplings when I get home!”

Am I the Asshole?
