Once a week I order pickup using their web site. Pay online to then take my order from the order pickup shelf. I do have to ask for my free ice tea using the Buffalo discount card.

It doesn't matter if I or anyone else doesn't like it. What matters to me is that someone there is enjoying their right to socialize without the establishment offering some sort of spacing and selfish people not thinking of others. So, one person could pass it on to another person, unmasked, then they go to publix where I buy my groceries. Putting all of us at risk. Yes, you may have a right not to wear a mask but I also have a right to have a safe place to go without having uncaring others nearby. So, it's more of an idea of thinking of others before yourself. A simple concept.
I completely agree with this poster. " one person could pass it on to another person, unmasked, then they go to publix where I buy my groceries. Putting all of us at risk.

I own a small importing business and over the years cannot believe the different depts of state and federal govt I had to deal with. Not to mention the costs involved in doing so.
When I was in business I had to deal with the health department for all my permits.

Simply stated that if I were to be found in violation (an issue or a complaint) my beer and wine license would be revoked instantly. My suppliers would be notified and I would not be able to purchase any more beer and wine. Quite simple, no inventory no customers.

You are missing the point. "Packed like sardines" will only send those "sardines" out into the community with the possibility of spreading the virus. Whether I go or not because I don't feel comfortable being packed in like a sardine, has absolutely NOTHING to do with this issue.

We will never get this virus under control with people who have the same attitude that you do.

And they will then start re-establishing restrictions and people will complain about that, even though they were part of the reason why

You're lucky that your bank is open. Mine (Suntrust) only has drive-up service for deposits and withdrawals only. When I called, I was told that if I needed to do anything else I needed to make an appointment. If it doesn't open for full service soon, I am going to make an appointment, cancel all my accounts, and take my business elsewhere.

The police and health dept are doing the best they can monitoring the violators. Dont start calling over every little thing, theyll find it. You think its unsafe in certain places, then dont go. Theres plenty of other places to eat

You can catch a cold from someone sneezing all over publix. You can catch anything contagious from someone in any place and always could, even before the virus. Just protect yourself. Simple concept

One more time....masks do not protect the person that wears them, it protects those around you. When someone doesn't wear one it means they could care less about doing anything that would protect you, and when you don't wear one you are basically telling those around you, screw you, if you get sick you get sick and if I can help that....it's your problem for being around me.
