Subj: Re: Update on Hy-Vee Q's

Quoting Barry Martin to Nancy Backus on 22-May-2020 11:44 <=-

if someone is in a nursing home/care facility or hospital, etc., is
a "can't". Also can't reserve a large table or room at a restaurant
as no dine-in yet -- everybody meet in the parking lot! <g>

Here, gathering in the parking lot would also have been a no-no...
except maybe for a very small group... and we'd have to have masks and
social distancing... And having a party (other than virtual) has also
been forbidden....

Here too, though at least it would be easier to social distance at
tables set up in the parking lot than inside.

I suppose so...

There was something about groups of ten or less now being allowed as
part of the re-opening guidelines.

I think groups of up to ten are allowed here, too... and possibly were
all along, as that was somewhat the guideline as to how many could be
the "skeleton crew" at church for the livestream services... but
definitely with distancing and now masks...

...I'll admit to not paying too close attention mainly because a lot
of the gathering stuff isn't applying to me, or more I'm not applying
to it as no plans for attending a wedding, re-union, etc.

Likewise... :) At least not at the moment... ;)

I haven't heard when restaurants are going to be allowed to re-open
(under COVID-19 guidelines); this morning's news did have a blurb about
*maybe* hair salons, barbershops, and the like might be allowed to
re-open this Saturday (May 16th). As was a local station implied here
in Scott County even though we're one of the 22 counties still under
the temporarily closed quidelines (though portions of the Mall opened
earlier this week).

Each state (and region, etc) seems to be making up their own rules as
to what happens when...

Right. LIS I was surprised at some of the allowed to re-open options
here in Scott County when we're still 'closed'.

Maybe you got opened up a little when you weren't noticing...?

I hope it doesn't end up being a real pain to remove them when the
time comes, then... :)

I'm thinking not: other events have used temporary floor decals so I'm
thinking the same glue/adhesive would be used. The main problem would
be if the decals were left in position for a really long time and the
floor faded due to the fluorescent lighting: rectangle of the original
colour where the decal was. Doubt if left that long, plus Hy-Vee as
well as a lot of other stores have switched to LED lighting.

So probably temporary, and probably won't be on long enough for any
real discoloration to occur... :)

Seems not. Did notice a lack of the floor decal in two areas which
are side-by-side. The store's general tile is a medium gray --
actually a nice colour and not as boring as it sounds. Also has a bit
of bounce to it. One of the sections without the one way decals is a black-and-white sort of zig-zag pattern which will be the new candy section -- I had commented on it to one of the manangers when I first
saw it a few weeks ago - that's when I found out it was going to be the candy section and he or one of the guys he was with commented on it as being Willie Wonka-ish (from the movie). The other section (adjacent)
has a charcoal coloured tile. No idea what's going there (stay tuned!).

Maybe they are waiting to make sure that the one-way is still needed
when those sections get opened for business before putting them down...
if not needed, then no need to waste time putting down and then picking
back up... :)

Agree. The six foot distancing isn't a guarantee to stay healthy but
more probability of a safe zone. If someone is hacking away I'll be
increasing my six foot zone!

You'd probably have done that even in more normal times... <G>

When possible!

A lot of what we are doing is just a more stringent form of what we
probably would normally be doing... :)

True. If know someone is sick probably would want to keep them at a distance almost naturally. And not like places aren't cleaned, just
now being more paid attention to the act of cleaning and the detail.

Yup, right now our consciousness of things is heightened because of the crisis... and extra care is being taken as well... :)

... Ask me about my vow of silence.

Not that you'd be allowed to respond.... <G>

Can I pantomime?

Only if allowed by your order... ;)

I'll have to ask the Head Monk, though that seems to have a bit of an issue in itself.

From what I've read, often with the vow of silence there's a brief
respite once a day or some other time period... maybe one could ask
then... ;)
