Trips to the grocery store are so much more interesting these days.
And by interesting, I mean annoying A.F.
Take for example… the ample directional signage.
Since I am a fully functioning literate adult, I read this and my brain processes the instruction quite quickly.
For those unlucky souls who don’t possess my lightning quick reasoning? There was also this helpful accompaniment.
Pretty straight forward, right?
Then why…. on every single aisle I traversed…. did I have to dodge customers coming straight at me? Many without the facial covering the store… and now this particular town…. requires.
Regardless whether you’re on board with the whole mask, social distancing, 6 feet apart regime…. it’s this grocery store’s policy and they’re doing it to try and keep you safe. You don’t have to shop there, but if you do? Please pay attention… and study those pesky one syllable directions.
I’d hate to inadvertently (on purpose) stick my foot out as you pass by.
River's world..... 
Did you?

At my store, they have two aisles in a row that the arrows point the same way. One is the aisles where the alcohol is… not a great place to be confusing.

Clearly that’s the passing lane for people who really, really need tequila.

Anyone caught walking against the flow will be bound and forced to listen to kazoo music in the back room.

I think it’s no coincidence that those ‘wrong way’ customers are the same customers who aren’t wearing masks.

Probably not.
And all the more reason to trip them….

Forget mere tripping as retaliation, this situation makes me want to pull a Kathy Bates / “Fried Green Tomatoes” / “I have more insurance” intervention…

How does going one way in the grocery store keep you safe? Honest question.

If you’re unmasked and cough or sneeze, then someone walks through the spray? I guess you can’t keep 6 feet apart when passing each other as well.

And you never pass anyone when you’re both going the same direction?
