Went to the registry office today in Red Deer. I noticed most of the staff behind the counter were not wearing masks.
As I waited in the queue, a guy got in line behind me. One of the workers came over and told him to put on a mask. He politely declined and she continued to press him. Again, politely said he was exempt and didn't need one. Just wanted to do his business and leave. There was an old woman in front of me who was getting agitated by this. The worker continued to press him and then decided to get the manager. As she did that, the old woman went to the counter.
I quietly leaned towards the unmasked fellow and told him to stand his ground. LOL!
Manager walks over and ties into the guy. I decided to take a seat right next to the action. Old woman at the counter said to 'call the cops! I'm a nurse and this makes me furious!'
Manager is telling the guy that in order to be served he will need to put a mask on. Everyone here needs to wear a mask. At this point, I chimed in 'Uhhhhhh, most of the staff behind the counter aren't wearing masks you know.'
Manager looks at me and doesn't say anything and then goes back to unmasked guy. The guy said he would then put one on 'under duress'.
I got called to the counter, did my thing. The guy also got called to the counter now, but he is now pissed off completely and goes off about 'compliance isn't the answer, this is communism, blah blah blah.' Young woman in line then pipes up 'IT'S TWO MINUTES. JUST PUT IT ON GOT GOD SAKE.'
Guy turns to her and says 'I'm sorry if I'm making people uncomfortable, but these restrictions should have ended by now.'
I yelled out, "I'm not uncomfortable!" LOL, I was loving every minute of it.
He finished up and took his mask off. Went towards the exit yelling a bunch of crazy shit. Place was packed so lots of folks saw this go down.
He did good at the beginning but was off the rails towards the end.
Not going to lie, the manager going on about how everyone needs to wear a mask while her staff didn't was some straight up rules for thee not for me shit. At least I called her out on it so she knows that shit doesn't go unnoticed.
10/10. Would love to witness something like that again lol.
Looking around
Wondering what became
Of what I once knew
