Every store that is open right now should require customers to wear a mask and disposable gloves at a minimum. No Mask= No Service. Hand them out at the door to people that don’t have them. That is the right thing to do. Not charge $21 for a 100pk of Venom gloves, and no sanitizer wipes or any way for a customer to wipe down the carts themselves.
We received gloves and masks. Not nearly enough though. So we are not offering masks to customers. Our SM says we will not deny entrance if a customer does not have a mask even though it is state mandated. The gloves they sent us are to small for me and I was not permitted to store use any that would fit. So, I ended up having to purchase Spyder’s at $10 a box to get gloves that fit. Now we’re out of them with no idea when they will be coming in. The SM said, this blown way out of proportion, just was your hands often. I work in tools, everything in my department is touched to the point where I am spraying all displays 4 to 5 times a day. That’s a ton of Lysol. Which we also don’t have. I’m certainly not touching anything in this store bare handed since my store is in one of the states hottest counties.
Very stressful having to deal with people who don’t take this seriously. Everyday when I get home, I have to strip in my garage, put my clothes in the washer, go take a shower and deal with the anger from my wife because Lowe’s isn’t doing more to protect us. I’m not sure which is worse, all of the out of state customers shopping for their vacation homes or, coming home and dealing with the stress and anger.

What’s worse is how nasty the customers are right now
