Corona lockdown day 11

Today it is snowing. I start work at 1pm because I have interviews until late at night. I had a poor night as woke up at 2am because James was up and then took a long time to get back to sleep. I braved Loblaws. They had a new flow for entering the store (some doors were in and some were out) that seemed efficient. I took a cart (normally I only take a basket) and got fresh fruit and veg and meat and juice which were the most needed things. Most things in the store were unchanged except for the bulk. There is a chicken in the slow cooker now.

There were a lot of changes at the checkout- some lanes were cash only and some were card only but it was hard to tell which so I used the self checkout which I knew would take a card. They had reduced the # of self checkouts from 6 to 4 so that people would have more space. So I had to stand in a line for the first time. But there weren't a lot of people in the store so the checkout slowness was not a big deal but I could see how it could be at busier times. One of the checkout people said that Kingston was "low risk" so they were last to implement things. There was no TP.
