What the hell is going on? Maybe I’m too good at this self-isolation thing but today was a bit of a shock.
I stopped by the grocery store on the way in to work. No toilet paper or paper towels, canned food was scarce, fresh produce was decimated, and there was a limit of 1 loaf of bread per customer.
I ordered Thai food to pickup on my way home from work. They took my credit card info over the phone and told me my food would be waiting for me in the lobby of the space next door. I show up and there’s the click of a lock unlocking and a gloved hand reaches from behind the door to present a credit card receipt. I hand the signed receipt back and in return I’m given my food. The door closes and the lock clicks into place again.
Are we looking at a complete lifestyle change? On whose bequest? Is it completely random? Because if feels manufactured.
