Note: I'm an old fart pede, so what I tried may not work for younger pedes.
Had to take my tax documentation to H&R Block. Walked in without a mask and was greeted by a big fat black gal (you know the type, 10" fake nails, those big caterpillar fake eyelashes, and a ghastly hair weave) wearing two masks and sitting behind 1" thick plexiglass.
Her first words were "please put a mask on."
I played dumb and pretended I didn't hear. She says even louder "put your mask on."
I reply "I'm sorry I can't hear you with the masks on. I have a hearing deficit. Please speak louder."
She grunts and shouts so loudly everyone in the office heard her -- "PUT A MASK ON."
I say "I'm so very sorry. I have to read lips in order to fully understand. Please lower your mask."
She shouts even louder "PUT THE MASK ON."
By then she's hyperventilating and can't speak. So she leaves the reception desk and sends up a big tall black dude who's also double masked.
Wash Rinse Repeat
He starts to hyperventilate and lowers his mask enough to tell me "PUT A MASK ON.
I reply -- Medical Exemption.
He freaks and leaves the reception area.
The gal I wanted to see from the git-go comes up front, takes my papers without a peep and I leave -- Mask-Free with a Shit-Eating Grin.
Way to go!!! Went to the grocery store to pick up a cake for hubby (his birthday) and some nutjob with a mask harrassed me in the store and it came down to him calling me names, so, I walked closer to him so I would not yell, and he scampered back! I laughed so hard. He told me if I got any closer, he would punch me, and I told him if he did that, I would sue him and own everything, including the clothes he was wearing. He backed off even more, so,while he was yelling at me, I called him a pussy, turned around and went on my way. I wanted to clock him. I need to pray for words of wisdom to be at rest on my tongue when this situation arises again.
I'll be your hucklemary. ;)
LOL, this place has given me such strength, I am forever grateful. I was shocked that this guy, wearing a mask, yelling at me about not wearing a mask, calling me names, people were just looking at me. I wish I would have had a stock line to say that would send him, and everyone listening to research for themselves. A site to start them to see for themselves that it is a lie.
Have a wonderful weekend, my friend. My husband has to verify everything I tell him because he loves proving me wrong! LOL Very rarely does he ever and, it is something like it happened at 12:47 not 12:45.
