Did you still order food, or did you voice your objection and leave?


The worker with no mask at all was a large African American girl. I did not want to read headline in next morning’s paper.... ‘white guy beaten by Black woman after mask-shaming her’

I did not voice any objection, and patiently waited for my order. Never even occurred to me to not get my food there because of mask issues.

I got a text from the Kenai Peninsula in Ak that said Wells Fargo bank in Anchorage has repeatedly requested quarters from the treasury and cannot get their order shipped, so the retailers cannot get them either. Walmart and Fred Meyer has stopped accepting cash as payment for sales, they say because they cannot make change.

I wonder what would happen if a customer had a cash gift card and wanted to make a purchase that required change?
The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW

Last time at the store I couldn't
pay with cash at self checkout.
They said because of covid there
was a coin shortage. Huh? That
makes no sense.

Same here. And I still don't see what the big deal is about contracting the virus. Just rest up for a couple weeks, and you're fine. Just like Tom Hanks, Prince Charles, George Stephanopoulos, and 98% of everyone else who gets it. Gotta ignore the libbie fear mongering. 🙄

They are living in fear. On the other side the so-called advantage players are saying they are afraid to touch cheques at the tables. Some people are so afraid of the china virus I am amazed they leave their houses.
