Grocery day:
A fair while back some chick posted a video of a bike ride through Chernobyl, possible faked. However it was good entertainment. Driving to Loblaws in rush hour felt a bit the same. On Burnhamthorpe which is usually bumper to bumper there was hardly a bumper.
Loblaws: Kudos for having glass separators for the cashiers. The shelves weren't as bare as last week and there was TP but being limited to two a customer. No sanitizer.
The checkouts were being assigned like the bank lineups. As your turn came you were directed to a cashier. The spaced line went to the far corner of the store but all in all not bad.
A fair number of shoppers had masks including one old cow that only had it over her mouth.
I went to two No Frills. The first one was limiting entry and there were a couple of dozen in line so I passed. The next one was a bigger store and more normal. It looked like they rearranged the aisles to allow more spacing and there were tape lines on the floor to avoid crowding the cash. Decent supply of most things except sanitizer.
Fortinos was almost normal except for the expected empty shelves and a few tape lines.
Went to BMO to set up improvement to my debit account and they had shortened hours. A security guard was limiting entry and asking the usual symptom questions. While waiting to get in I chatted with another guy about the situation mentioning the lady not wearing the mask over her nose. He one upped me. He saw a guy wearing a mask with a hole in it so he could smoke. Tattoo DNR on his forehead.
I poked my head into the local independent drug store to see if they had sanitizer. Nope. BTW to the A hole parked in front of Dollarama, social distancing does not mean parking six feet from the curb in a fire lane.
Hunkered down for another week I hope.
