Maskhole Excuses

[canyonwalker]

Today as I was buying lunch a woman came in behind me not wearing a mask. The employee at the register told her she'd need to put one on or leave, pointing to one of many signs in the store that said the same thing. What came next was a litany of excuses, ultimately all in bad faith.

Customer: Did I forget to wear my mask?
Cashier: ...
Customer: Am I the only one here not wearing one?
Cashier: ...
Customer: Do I really got to [sic]?
Cashier: ...
Customer: Do you have one to give me?
Cashier: ...
Customer: I think it's in my car.
Cashier: ...
Customer: Actually my husband took it at home
Cashier: ...
Customer: Okay, I have it in my pocket. *puts mask on*

All those excuses when she had a mask the whole damn time.

It amazes me that people around here still think they can pass off, "What? I didn't know!" type excuses when masks have been required in this area for more than 18 months.

I keep thinking of that one sign on a food truck that made the rounds last fall. "It's been six months. I could potty train a dog faster than this."
