Today I was in line at a CVS store with my kid. Now, the woman (older - I'd think late 60s) in front of me was kind of staring at me and then asked me "Could you stand back?" She was at the counter right where the card reader was and we were not quite at the check stand. I'd estimate we were at least 8 feet from her. So we walked back about another two feet. Then she wanted us to stand back a little more to where there was a line on the carpet. We did it, but at that point we were about 12 feet from her.
"Thank you."
I'm not sure exactly what she was thinking. We weren't crowding her. We were masked as required by all state/county orders. And she was about 2 feet from the cashier, although there was a plexiglas barrier, although sometimes it wasn't between her and the cashier.
The really weird think is that after she was done, she didn't want her receipt. Anyone who has shopped enough at CVS with their ExtraCare loyalty program knows that it gives discounts and occasionally the receipt will have an "ExtraBucks" rewards that are almost good as cash. In her case the cashier said that it was worth $24, and she said that she didn't want it. That seemed really weird.
