[Just rode 5 miles one-way on my bike to Walmart. 88°, sunny and humid af]

Outside at a podium stood a woman in a mask. She is there to enforce masks wearing on shoppers. Naturally, I cruised on by, sans-mask:

WALMART EMPLOYEE [WE]: *Screaming*

1/
WE: MA’AM! MA’AM! You have to wear a mask!

Me: *walking* No, I don’t!

WE: Yes! You do!

Me: No, I don’t! Call your own corporate office and learn your own policy! I’m not wearing a mask!

*I go inside and things have changed. I got dirty looks from everyone. Shoppers too*

2/
I shop, and at the self check out, employees were gathered and obv talking shit about me. I was WISHING one of those jags would say something to me.

I go outside, and there at the podium is a young woman (20ish), with her tshirt pulled over her face, asking if that was ok.

3/
WE: No.

I yelled to her that she didn’t need a mask.

WE: Yes, she does!

Me: You just watched me leave the store. I didn’t wear a mask. You can see I have bags with groceries. You don’t need a mask!

WE: Yes, she does!

*The girl runs away. Runs!

4/
Me: No, masks are not mandatory. *I start walking to my bike*

WE: You have to wear a mask if you want to shop here again.

*STOPPED ME IN MY TRACKS*

I walked to the podium and said, Did you just THREATEN me?

WE: No

5/
Me: O.k., bc I thought you just said I can’t buy anything here unless I follow an unenforceable rule.

So, there was an older woman (a friend?) standing with the employee now.

Me: Wake up. No one’s sick. The hospitals are empty.

6/
WE’s friend: *Screaming* MY DAD JUST DIED OF COVID, YOU FUCKING LIAR!

Me: No, he didn’t. Judging by you, your dad was 100 years old, and they put Covid on all the elderly‘s death certificates now.

WE’s friend: *Tears off her mask and gets in my face* YOU ARE A FUCKING LIAR!

7/
Me: People afraid of catching a deadly virus don’t tear their masks off and get in someone’s face. You’re ridiculous. You know there’s no virus or you would flee from me, not tear off your mask and get in my face.

WE’s friend: FUCK YOU!

8/
She got a weird smile on her face AND LIT A CIGARETTE.

Me: You have got to be shitting me. Yeah, you’re super-health conscious. You’re a clown.

She kept grinning.

Me: *LOL’ing* I’ve got to get a picture of this:
