'Flu numbers should ( and I had read on article to suggest health thinks it will be ) be down due to our physical distancing and hygiene practices we've adopted.
I do hope we continue to do the social distancing whilst lining up at shops like Woolworths, Coles etc even beyond winter. I think even forgetting the hygiene reasons it works well from a customer experience and system point of view. I quite like having a bit of space from a trolley being rammed up my backside.
I did have a giggle to myself at Woolies though as my workplace is a classic for it also...the 'rules for the sake of rules'
I lined up at the express isle keeping my social distancing, I placed my 5 items on the service desk and asked for a bag for the items.
The lady then picked up my items, scanned them and placed them on the desk on the other side, presenting me with the woolworths bag and said 'you need to pack them yourself'
I didn't say anything to her as she doesn't make the rules but i had somewhat of a giggle thinking, wait a sec, you just picked up all my items anyway, How is me placing them in the brand new bag you just picked up going to help you once you've already touched all my items.
