Wawa employee saves life of customer in need: 'There's a girl having a seizure in the bathroom'

  • "It was a pretty normal day for a 16-hour shift," said Wawa employee John Wallop.
    Wallop, 19, says he loves to work. He is especially enjoying his job behind the deli counter at Wawa on the corner of West Main and Sharp Streets in Millville, New Jersey. It puts money in his pocket while he finishes his senior year of high school.
    But the particular double shift he worked on December 17, 2021, called for more work than he was used to.
    "I was pretty tired," he said. "I was working on making sandwiches and two strangers ran up to me like, 'Hey, hey, there's a girl having a seizure in the bathroom.'"
    Wallop, a fan of taking action and helping others, ran into the restroom to find a woman who was not breathing. Without hesitation, he implemented a CPR technique that he learned several years ago under the tutelage of his grandmother.

      @@namenome3680 no, I think you are missing the point. Its kind of disrespectful to make this assumption. As I said, I know that it’s coming for a good place, but ppl rarely refer to white ppl as well spoken, especially a grown person. The assumption is that Black ppl are not usually “well spoken” and it is surprising to see it. The flip side of that is that we get treated poorly (on top of what we go through) when we do not speak in a specific way. It is assumed we have low intellect. I experience this constantly and see it within the community. This is a huge issue within the Black community and I suggest that if you know anyone who is Black that you ask them about this.

I'll take having a cold over a lifetime of ringing in my ear. Covid shot complications are being seriously underreported and the risks minimized. The authorities claim that they are safe and effective, even for kids, in both the short and long term. They cannot know what the long-term effects are yet are making that claim. If they are lying about that, and they absolutely are because long-term effects cannot be known this soon after the shots introduction, how can we trust anything they say?
