Different people have different eating preferences. Some like their food spicy, some put on YouTube videos for background noise, and some carry chopsticks wherever they go.
However, it would be difficult to find a person who enjoys a strong unpleasant odor while they’re fueling up.
After their confrontation, HRProf2020 started having doubts about the way she carried herself, so the woman made aposton the subreddit ‘Am I the [Jerk]?‘ describing the situation in detail and asking its members to share their opinions on it. Here’s what she wrote.

“As parents, we know that each stage in our child’s life brings its own unique challenges, and we try to have grace for each other in those times, but even [we] agree that no one wants to smell a dirty diaper in a public place, especially when they are trying to relax,” Bartlett says.
Although there are no hard and fast rules, he suggests to keep these things in mind when going about your child’s business:
“Think about how you would feel if you were another customer in the store or restaurant. If someone has spent money on food or a cup of coffee, they certainly don’t want a parent changing a dirty diaper right next to them.”
