I do always try this (when I forget and cough or clear my throat) -- but it usually does not work -- I get the responses I described I guess designed to help me feel okay about my "racist" action. VERY hard to escape getting waived forwards!
Agree on the discomfort with COVID and coughs -- this predates it from my early 20s to now over 3 decades of shopping.
@admin Sorry, I deleted my post because I've never run into this and I suspect this is an American thing (not that there isn't racism in Canada and Quebec, there certainly is, it just often plays out differently than in the US). @EqualRightsAdvocates@blackmastodon
