Gloves doesn't help unless you change them after you come in contact with money etc after every customer. If you don't change your gloves what ever you get on your gloves stays on your gloves.

At the grocery store today, I watched the manager talking with an employee. He had a mask on, but it was pulled down to his chin with his nose and mouth totally exposed.

Cashiers were wearing masks, but not gloves. So if I'm infected and hand them cash, then they give cash back to another customer later... that customer is likely to be infected.

Common sense is just gone.

People need to wear mask while out.
Despite being the densest US state, New Jersey, along with NY, now has the lowest COVID-19 transmission rate.Likely related: NJ was the 1st state with a mask requirement for the general public starting with grocery customers. Numbers are going up in NC! Wear mask!

I am very sad and concerned that no one has went to the news and reported this. Obivously I don't want to be the one but out of all of the employees we have you would think someone would tell a news outlet! I am scared that people will continue to pour into the store and more cases will happen. People will probably be more careful if they know we had a case!

I'm thinking you're the one spreading it to all these places.

I told you all about the infection at Tyson, McDonalds, Sheetz, and now Lowes before anyone else... you should just believe me by now

There's no way of knowing everything that they touched with exposed hands, so every customer that's been there in the last 2 weeks should quarantine or be tested

Oddly enough, my nail carrier just left me 16 copies of this week's Lowes Circular.

Maybe they're running a COVID Sale.

We'll do that after we bulldoze your house and replace it with a home for underprivileged children.

The best response would be to bulldoze the Lowes building and Build a Home Depot in its place.

You can't identify every customer from cameras. If they told you this, they lied to you

I work at Lowes. They checked the cameras and all employees who were exposed are being tested and are not at work and everything I the store is very clean. The store was closed for cleaning overnight. We also have third parties come in to clean. No need to worry!!

A Lowes employee did in fact test positive. This is true.

But but but this is Go Wilkes and it's got to be true I mean spitfire knows someone that knows someone. In all honesty I do think rumors does hurt business and people's reputation but how do you stop others from water cooler gossip. The part that gets me is Spitfire even says the employees couldn't wear the mask right, I've yet to see anyone who did wear one correctly anywhere.
