They have arrows on the floor directing you to only go one way in certain aisles, and they have spots marked out on the floor where to stand while waiting in the checkout line so you can socially distance.

Then I pay for my groceries and someone is standing there 2 feet from me bagging my groceries, and personally handing the bags to me (as if that's really necessary). What is wrong with this picture? Even if they aren't doing that, the people working there walk a lot closer to me than any customer typically does. They also stand around in such a way that it is impossible to get past them while staying more than 2-3 feet from them.

Were they wearing masks or did the cashier have a "plastic or glass spit screen(?)"? That is common down here in Fl at the better grocery stores. If you do not feel safe do not give them your business.

GO HUSKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

p.s. And another question. Were you wearing a mask?

The cashier had a plastic screen, but it isn't that big, probably only somewhat effective. The workers were wearing masks, as was I (it's still required). But if just wearing masks is enough, there is no point in making a big deal about socially distancing.

Can't really go anywhere indoors and socially distance. I went into a gas station that was empty except for the cashier. I pay for a few things and as I start to leave, one person walks in and stops right next to me. I think every establishment is required to have at least one idiot in there.
