The staff still brush past people like nowts the bother.
Seen this many times.
It's either forgetfulness or ignorance.
Either way, the shop workers seem to be immune to it and this is one of the reasons why I am not scared of it too much while i practice staying safe.
There'll have been loads who will have gotten it imo

So all these products that the shops have well stocked now must have factories behind them with workers.

They have to have people who operate and feed them.

Done my shopping again.
Apart from the lass wearing some sort of Darth Vader mask at the checkout in Farmfoods, everything looks normal.
Food supplies in there are well stocked.

Yes they have stocked the shelves again but I hate the queueing to get in a supermarket during the daytime :argument:

Probably the only way to guarantee a trolley 🛒 full of anti bacteriol wipes and sprays.

Although that's what I assume, because every time I go in they've none left.

Its annoying, especially when it's all the way around a car park, and you just need a few things.

Go later though, and the stuff you want is not there because all the panic buyers bought them all up during the day in those queues. There should be a limit ffs
