Local Aldi Social Distancing
20 Answers
Wife went to local Aldi today expecting a queue. None walked straight in. Normally the last few weeks they had hired “ security “ to allow one in one out. Ask people to gel hands. Stop 2 people going in together. Ask why none of this. Staff told wife. Nobody was adhering to the policy. Walking in without gelling. Not keeping 2 metres apart. After couples being told only one in. 2nd person going in later to partner 1st. People walking against the flow arrows etc etc.
Wife was only person wearing latex gloves and a mask.

they sound like people I wouldn't want to share a shop (or a virus) with.
Now in Waitrose you get carried around in your own personal sedan chair by staff in livery, so little risk to the shopper as long as you keep the roof down

//but once inside it was impossible to social distance as the aisles were so narrow.//
Exactly. Even in larger stores the idea that everybody can keep two metres apart is pure fantasy. You head down an aisle, get to the end and passing from behind a row of shelves, out of your sight, comes another customer. You're within a foot or two of each other before either of you knows it. You can keep apart in the queue to get in and you might be able to keep apart in the queue to get out - provided the queue is not alongside a row of shelves laden with goods - which it usually is and then you get shoppers infiltrating the two metre gaps to pick up their goods.
Total farce, window dressing and, judging by the continued rise in the number of new cases, of no value whatsoever. (Cue: "Ah, but without it the numbers would be even greater").

As an NHS employee I take advantage of Sainsbury's opening time for NHS staff (first half hour on a Saturday).Number in is strictly regulated, distancing lines and arrows in.All great apart from they have produce cages and shelf stackers everywhere and there is no way you can maintain a 2 metre distance to pass them. I do wonder if I say 'I work all day with COVID 19 positive patients' (which is true) some of them might disappear
