I popped to jojo this morning as Dd needing some shoes. She’s 3 and Dh works during the day so I took her with me.

We were barked at as soon as we walked in (no one else was in the store). Don’t let go of dds hand, no touching anything. I don’t mind these things but to be made to feel utter shit about it. It was horrible and I really had to bite my lip from not crying (hormonal!).
I just felt so sad for Dd, she normally loves that shop :(

I said jokingly “wish we could just go back to normal” to be shouted that it won’t ever go back and if I touch something it will not keep other people safe 😑😑

I had a similar experience, had preordered something over the phone and just needed to pop in and pay. Explained to lady inside the door who was stood next to the pay desk but no I was forced to go around a massive one way system past several people when the pay desk was right there inside the door.

It’s was pointless, no one was paying at the time and I had to pass several people as I negotiated their ridiculous one way scheme. But according to the lady that was the (made up) rules.

Will never bother them again! I’m very concerned about this blind acceptance of all these made up “rules” when common sense can be applied.
