breakfast interrupted

I go into my local Duane Reade.



I am in a short line to pay.

The cashier is not wearing a mask. She is behind a piece of plexiglass, but still. She is handling money, products, bags and receipts.

Me: Can you please put on your mask?

Cashier: Then how'm I supposed to drink my coffee?

I have no answer.

  1. The sorry thing is that an hourly wage earner thinks they have
    "rights" to drink coffee while on the "clock". All of a sudden everyone has rights.
    This reminds me of an issue I have about 5 years ago at a rental car counter. The lady was upset I asked her for help, when she was ordering her lunch while on the clock. Her comment was "I have rights" My reply was so does your employer who expects you to wait on customers when you working.
