Getting Yelled At

 Today was the first day I was yelled at to leave an establishment for not having a vaccination card.  I saw the sign outside, but as an A1AD lung affected person, some establishments have been kind to me, letting me shop because the vaccination is life threatening to me.  So I figured, maybe I could just ask.  I opened the door, stepped inside, and began to ask.  The gentleman asked first if I had a vaccination card, I said no, and said I just wanted to ask...  He just started raising his voice, telling me I had to get out.  I of course just put up my hands and agreed, and said I was only asking.  My wife and I turned and were walking out, when the guy kept yelling at us.  I turned and said, you don't have to be so mean.  That was it.  It was not a big thing, but it was definitely not mannerly.  

We are all subject to these mandates against the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the customer as well as the business owner.  At least we can all be civil, polite, and courteous with each other, maybe even remain friendly toward one another.  The business owner is not the only one suffering, neither is the customer the only one suffering.  We are all in this together.  Instead of burning bridges, let us work together.  After all, this is only the beginning.  Things will get far worse than this.  We may need each other later on.k

Have a great day!
