I am in the vulnerable group with respect to the virus and showed up this Tuesday at 8:00 to shop at The Wedge on Lyndale. I am concerned that I ran into numerous problems with social distancing in the store. People were simply not keeping apart from one another, often passing me shoulder to shoulder. My first clue that things were not secure was when three of us were allowed to enter the store directly adjacent to one another. There were clusters of shoppers and employees in the bulk area, making it impossible for me to secure items I wanted without being in proximity to others. I ended giving up shopping in the bulk area. Even as I maneuvered down isles, I ran into employees stocking shelves, sometimes making it impossible to keep a desirable distance.
This is remarkably different from my experience at another store last week, and I am disturbed that the Wedge has not worked out a more effective arrangement. A friend of mine has just revealed that she got out of the Wedge as quickly as possible. That was my reaction, and I am intending to put off future visits unless I know things have changed to better protect people like me.
