She could have been nicer about it, but in this environment our 'personal space' is precious to us and obviously you violated her's. Many people are paranoid due to the current situation and they will react harshly. I would say you can expect more of that as this continues.

Snitches and self empowered, self righteous bullies should not be “the new normal,” especially in the service industry. That would be Bernie’s version of America where the few define what civil liberties mean for the many.

Some people think they are the center of the Universe.

I beg to differ, she has all kinds of class, low class.

No he probably committed suicide years ago.

She/he doesn’t know what I am going through either BUT I make it a point to always be nice to others. No excuse for that behavior

So what. Be a good role model for your daughter and move on and forget about it. What happened is nobody’s business but yours and hers. Talking about her on social media is not any better than what you claim she did.

And maybe the people she yells at have the same things you are saying she is possibly coping with. Rude, crude and bullying actions are not to be tolerated, period. The reason they act like jerks is because people let them get away with it. They need to learn that stupid actions have consequences.

Sad that so many jump on the bandwagon to criticize this woman. How do you know the OP was being the angel she claims to be? Was the other woman really as rude as the OP says? What else was the other woman dealing with in her life that we don’t know about? We don’t know the answers to any of these questions. There are always 2 sides to every story and we weren’t there so we really don’t know either.

Smart with their money. That’s why they can afford the house.

So this justifies an arrogant and ignorant rant by a demented person? How close was she to the cahier? Less than 4 feet in most grocery stores, kinda violates the 6 foot guideline doesn't it. Maybe she should have yelled at the cashier also.

Gotta feel sorry for someone like that with nothing more important in her life than promoting herself to “mask nazi” & grocery belt monitor!

Cheeks 05-05-2020 09:03 AM

Stress is getting to her. Ignore her to the best you can.
