I got covid in December and had to go to the store to get some dayquil. They won't deliver that stuff. I was wearing a mask, actively trying to avoid people, was super careful to disinfect my hands before going in and touch as little as possible. I went to the self checkout and the lady up front tried to spark up a conversation with me.

"Feeling under the weather huh?"

I just nodded and made it clear I wasn't talking. I just couldn't understand the logic of trying to interact with an obviously sick person when they're going out of their way to not interact. People's brains are broken.

Depending on the store you get yelled at if you don't interact even with the customers who obviously don't wanna talk to anyone 🙃
