Harder than ever before. People scream for many different reasons. No one knows what this person was going through. Someone in his family may have died or is very sick. My wife has cancer. Others have so many reasons to scream. For those 10 seconds his life just needed to scream.
It was just 10 seconds. Please have a good day everyone.

Once, a few years ago, I was working at a particular store. Parents sometimes brought their kids with them, but it wasn't a common thing outside of Back to School Season.
On a particular day, a mom came in with her toddler. The toddler was making a fuss in every aisle - we could hear him whining MOMMY I WANT....
He was getting pretty worked up, and eventually it sent him into a full-blown temper tantrum complete with uncontrollable gasping and physical shuddering.
Mom, the trooper that she was, got him safely through the aisles, getting what she needed, and finally they ended up at my cashier line. The kid was still screaming - I mean SCREAMING. As if she was beating him bloody - even though she clearly hadn't laid a hand on him, or even raised her voice.
So - I screamed too. Shocked the crap out of my fellow co-workers but I figured hey - if it's good enough for this kid to get it out of his system, it's good enough for me.
Well that shut this kid up quick in a hurry. And everyone in line laughed their butts off. It was a wonderful day.
