48. Potential violence

Mon Jul 6, 2020, 08:43 PM

Jul 2020

is the reason why CVS does not enforce their precautions, according to what a couple of clerks told me.

At another store in the same plaza I saw a guy walking around with his mask around his neck. So when he passed me, I said, "Wow. i thought the masks were for the face." He said with a smirk, "It is on my face." So I said he must be 2 faced because I could clearly see one that was not covered. Smirk disappeared.

Yeah, it was foolish and risky for me to speak up, but I'm tired of jerks spreading illness without giving a damn. So on that day it just slipped out.
