https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/10/us/ice-cream-shop-closes-employee-harassment-trnd/index.htmlThings got so bad at the Polar Cave Ice Cream Parlour in Mashpee that an employee quit the same day.
"One of my best workers quit yesterday at the end of her shift. She stuck it through her shift," owner Mark Lawrence told CNN affiliate WFXT. "But the words she was called and the language, you wouldn't even say in a men's locker room. And to say it to a 17-year-old kid, they should be ashamed of themselves."
In accordance with reopening guidelines, Lawrence said the shop asked all customers to place their orders at least one hour in advance.
However, many customers ignored the request and showed up without doing so. When the shop got busy, customers took their anger out on the staff, he said.
"Now I open the doors to a whole new world, with gloves and masks and we're running around like chickens, and people are like where's my ice cream? I'm not a trauma center, it's ice cream!" Lawrence told WFXT.
"People have forgotten how to treat other human beings in the six or seven weeks that they've been confined to their homes. They have no clue how to respect other human beings."

(4,483 posts)Those customers waving their guns and demanding everything be open are going to be the customers who won't wear masks or stay an appropriate distance from each other (or probably wash their hands). Careful people, the ones who would follow the rules if we dared go out for ice cream, won't be visiting stores like this any time soon.
