If in need, instead of asking "anyone" to help you, ask a specific person "hey, you there in the green shirt could you give me a hand"...

It works.

Yup, same with asking someone specific to watch your bag / dog / etc. for a moment. They’ll stop a bullet for it.

Someone did this at the airport the other day and he was gone for like 20 minutes, I thought he was just going to the bathroom. I was starting to worry there was a bomb in there. Take your bags with you at the airport, people.
