I was hurrying from the shop to my office when I noticed an elderly gentleman looking at one of our new cars. It surprised me, as I had not seen him drive in and had no idea how long he had been there. I quickly walked out and greeted him and asked him if I could help him. He asked a few vague questions about the car and then walked to another.
I looked around and could not see a strange car anywhere, so I asked him where he parked his car. “I didn’t” he replied, “ I’m on foot”. He looked for a few more minutes and then asked if there was anyone available to take him to the bus station. I was very busy, but I told him I would be glad to and directed him to my car. I drove him to the bus station, he thanked me several times, and I returned to work.
An hour or so passed and then a professionally dressed lady. obviously distressed, came in. I asked here if I could help her and she said.” I am the director of the rest home”. (There was a rest home about 500 yards behind the dealership) “Have you by any chance seen an elderly gentleman walking around?” “ He has been missing for several hours”
