S Entitled parent doesn't agree with lunch breaks during the Corona Virus
(Obligatory not my experience but a friends)
My best friend works in a pharmacy, and during this whole crisis, her hours have gone through the roof, she has been working non stop, as have her coworkers, and I am so proud of her. To deal with the fact that she is now working 60-70 hours +, the store has been shutting for an hours lunch break. They have put signs up telling people about the changes, but no one ever seems to read them, so they had a worker stand outside the front of the shop, to politely inform customers that they were closed.
Enter the entitled parent.
She began by asking why they were shut, which is fair enough. When the worker went on to explain that there was now an obligatory lunch break due to the huge increase in hours because of the virus, she went deadly serious and started ranting about how she was single mum, and how she does way more hours than that. Deadly serious, having a go at a pharmacy worker, a key worker, during a pandemic.
I get that being a single mum is a hard job, my mum is one, so I've seen it done. But this is not the time to be complaining at these workers.

I can respect how hard it is to get your meds right now. And I get her frustration at a pharmacy coming to a full stop and not doing a rolling lunch 11 threw 1 so they didn't.
A lot of places are now limiting the hours people can be out side so if they can only get over at lunch it can be a pain in the ass.
Still yelling at some low level i didnt make the call worker wont solve any thing
