Is there anything that has changed during the pandemic that you hope “sticks” when it’s over?

I love the way grocery stores are now that the aisles are directional and people can only go down the aisle one way. I want it to stay like that forever now.

    I am cracking up.  It's like all the big wigs in the grocery business held a meeting and came to the conclusion...
    We STILL need directing.

    I'm not sure if it is an insult or if we are so inconsiderate of one another that we DID a little more directing.

    It's the little things that make a difference!

    I will miss driving to work with little traffic.  I wouldn't create so much pollution if I were able to get to work in the 37 minutes it has taken me the last two weeks. This post was edited by Merlin at April 20, 2020 6:13 AM MDT

    Haha yeah, it is nice not having as much traffic too. I don’t really care if the arrows are insulting to people who would normally push their way through aisles. I always go grocery on Sundays and it’s always packed with people. I like all this structure and making people wait their turn stuff lol. I find it calming. Also I like the pretty red arrows :) This post was edited by Jaimie at April 20, 2020 9:08 AM MDT

    I certainly hope the uglies continue wearing masks. It has been very pleasant for a sensitive dude like me to not have to hold it in during visits to the pub, pool hall and supermarket in these otherwise difficult times. This post was edited by Nyse Elias at April 19, 2020 12:07 PM MDT

      The 180-degree drawback with that is when masks hide beautiful faces . . .

    I like that idea. A local deli has done that, but there are always a few halfwits who can't figure it out.

      The lower crime rates. 

      This next one is kind of morbid, but do you notice that there have been zero incidents of mass shootings since social distancing and stay-at-home orders have been in place?

    :(

    Actually yes, I saw a tweet a week or so ago  about how last March was the first March  in many years without a school shooting.

      Jaimie, My2Cents is saying that since there are no people at the schools, there are no mass shootings at schools.

    Oh I was reading that the wrong way. I don’t know how to explain what I thought she meant But I thought something else.

    Most, if not all of our schools are closed down here. I saw the news about the mass shooting up there.

    Schools are all shutdown here too. I thought she meant something different.
