the clerk bagged the purchases, the customer notice that the bags were flimsy and the items
(laundry soap, detergent, cleanser, furniture polish, bleach, ammonia, etc.) were rather heavy.
The customer requested that the items be separated into several different bags and double-
bagged to avoid ripping the bags.
Though the store was not busy and no one else was waiting in line, instead of complying with the
customer's request, the clerk hefted the bag in the air and said "it should hold up". The customer
insisted, but the clerk refused to double-bag or provide more bags. As the customer left the

Conscious (tried to get what was needed) or merely sense (needed help from
clerk)
