On Monday, I did some shopping at the Downtown Mankato Hy-Vee. As I went to checkout, I realized the 20-something gentleman shopper in front of me wasnât wearing a mask.
The cashier said nothing. The bagger said nothing. The shopper smiled and casually conversed with the employees while paying.
When it was my turn to checkout, I asked the cashier why the shopper wasnât asked to put on a mask. The cashier told me it was the storeâs policy to say nothing. Hmm...OK. Fair enough. Now I know.
Since my policy is to shop at places that care about the safety and health of employees and customers, Iâll be shopping elsewhere.
