Went to Casey's for a pizza last night - I and the cashier were the only ones with masks.

So I just called Casey's contact number and told them in no uncertain terms they have lost my business.

When you go inside a store you have to share the air inside that store with all the other folks. There were 4 other customers in the store at the time. We all go to the same cashier so I have to follow a guy with no mask. From the looks of him he did nothing to care for himself at all. The 18 pack of Coors and the 3 packs of Pall Malls were a hint also.

So I have to walk into the space that he had been in in order to get my pizza. I was fucking dying of hunger.

The woman on the complaint line was sympathetic, but I do not expect anything to happen. Casey's is unfortunately the only decent pizza in my small town, but fuck them. I do not want to die for one of those pizzas.

1. I've stopped going to my local Casey's as well

Which means no bacon breakfast pizza or cheesy tots for me. And that makes me sad

But it was a shitshow every time I went in there.

There is a local gas station/convenience store in town that does a better job enforcing the rules. I go there

They don't make pizza though...

2. Casey's strategy is to go into small towns and bury the competition just like Walmart.

So now - ten years later - we have 2 gas stations and 2 pizza place etc.

I hate going in there but they literally drove several other places out of business.

3. I know lots of folks personally who are staying away from businesses that don't require masks.

4. glad to hear that.

wish I could avoid Walmart but they ran all the small stores out of business and they alone have things I need.

5. I haven't been in ours for months so I don't know what's going on here.

Most of the stores I've gone to, the employees have had masks on with a couple exceptions. At the Tractor Supply Co., one employee and me were the only people in the store wearing a mask. Not going there anymore.

Menards has a policy that you have to wear a mask if you want to shop there. If you don't have one, they'll sell you one for 99 cents. Don't know how long that policy will last.

Yesterday I stopped at Planet Fitness to cancel our membership. They just re-opened but I will NOT be going there for the foreseeable future. The employee was wearing a mask and gloves. But I didn't see a single member wearing one. And the parking lot was packed!
