In Tesco self checkout this morning: Woman shopping wearing mask, needs assistance with a voucher.
Assistant: I can't hear you, I'm a bit deaf, can you take off your the mask.
Woman shakes head and points to the notification on the screen whilst saying she needs help.
Assistant: Well I can't hear you and I don't know what the problem is. There is no one else. The mask thing is a little over the top.
Woman takes off mask: I work in A&E and last night dealt with a Covid positive patient. I'm protecting you, you idiot.
Woman storms out, leaving the shopping.
Assistant bursts into tears. Another person comes over. She's saying it's not fair she's not an idiot, she can't do her job like this, something about discrimination.
Manager comes over and tells her to go home and have a day off. Then all three walk off.
AIBU to think that through all of that someone should have really noticed my awkwardly flashing red light and given me some assistance..?! There I am stood like a fucking lemon waiting for someone to confirm that I have indeed bagged said item and they all just walk off. Fuckers. I'm half joking.
