Middle River woman leaves work early due to having to pick up her daughter

Giant grocery store

Register unable to be opened

Bonnie Fairbright of Middle River Maryland, was unable to open a fourth register at the Giant today at 3:30 pm due to having to pick up her daughter. Even though her co-workers had to take on extra assignments because of Miss Fairbright's exit, many said that they understood. "When she told the customers waiting in line that she had to leave to pick up her daughter, it brought us back to the time that we, ourselves, have had to pick up our daughter." said Stuart Lennox of Sparrows Point, Giant daytime manager. One customer noted "Sure, it did cause me to lose a few minutes, but I've also had to pick up my daughter a time or two. I completely understood." Many of the customers and workers present at the time felt emotionally connected to Miss Fairbright, saying that they have had to provide transportation for their own female child at some point in the past.
