Not surprising. Just add them to the list of douchebags who fake medical certificates to park in handicapped spaces, beg for a doctor's note to take their poodle on a flight, fake an injury to get workers comp or claim imaginary medical conditions to not wear a mask.Quote:

They don’t get paid to deal with that shyte
What so many aren't seeing is how many workplaces that have been deemed essential from day one. Many have never social distanced or worn masks, after all they don't have prying eyes from the public like grocery and other stores. Workers to afraid to report to the MNR in fear of retaliation from employers or complete shutdown of business.Quote:

What should be happening is the grocery store employee's responsibility stops at "inform". If the customer is still non-compliant, then it becomes the manager's problem. If the manager expects the employee to enforce the rule, the employee should refuse to do it as unsafe work. I can't see a Ministry of Labour investigator siding with the employer here.Quote:

For the most part people aren't as concerned with refusing work in the moment as they are with how things will be with the boss afterwards.

Your comparing apples to oranges, Im not going to argue your strawman argument, what Im talking about is a much greater scale then what you are living in.
Go try and get medical assistance in a hospital that requires you to wear a mask, Im fairly certain all hospitals require them at this point. Throw down your "im a panzy and cant follow the rules" card and you will be escorted out by security just like that yahoo on twitter that was in the news last week.
In the case in Minden, he did not get into the store but according to sources, was 'informed' by staff of a need for a mask, before entering, and then assaulted the staff in the parking lot.
Unfortunately I have the unwanted pleasure of dealing with these types of people every day on my job. One thing in common is they work harder against the system then if they just did what was right its less stress, less effort and their actions benefit more people when they chose to work together to solve an issue then try and stand out and be difficult for absolutely no real reason. Sometimes pride and ego get in the way of common sense, I see it everyday.Quote:
