Two of the staff were unmasked in the store, ostensibly shelf-filling. A customer entered, and loudly commented that the rules regarding the wearing of masks applied not only to customers, but also to staff when not positioned behind their till screens. A loud exchange followed, with one of the unmasked staff members stating that she was exempt. The customer then asked how anyone was supposed to know? It all got a bit fractious, before the girl - now back behind her till screen, but still very audible - responded with "Shut up, you fat b*****d".  Not nice to witness.     Wow service with a smile Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I'm sure the Co-op wouldn't condone their staff swearing at a customer.  But it's OK- Makapaka says we'll get over it. Are you struggling to deal with it?  No proof is needed for exemptions and if someone is going to be the type of ****** to run around shops asking why people aren't wearing masks then I'm afraid they're going to get some friction from people, this is includes but is not limited to being called a *******.  The moral of this story is to mind your business, do your shopping and leave. If it bothers that customer too much, order the shopping.  Would I wear a mask for an 8 hour shift? Not a chance and I don't expect anyone else too either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I'm then at a special school in the Norton area sometimes the receptionist insists on a mask but once I'm introduced to the head or building manager the protocol goes out of the window, these people are seeing hundreds of kids a day along with parents but have absolutely no issues with adhering to mask wearing or social distancing, they're not dropping down ill. Just how " Special" was this " Special school" ?  As far as I know , anyone who works in Education or for the Education authority have not used this term for many years , if ever .

No - but they've had far fewer cases and deaths per head of population than the UK (434 deaths per million in Denmark, 1,875 in the UK).  https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/   Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

It 100% is, peoples attempts to pour scorn on my visits to these places are going to hit the rocks every time as they are all true, I’ll have more to add by this time next week.

No - just far less virus in circulation than in Denmark than the UK therefore far less chance of catching it.  I would expect G7 leaders to be tested regularly for covid.
