One day at a time. One foot in front of the other.

Now that we have achieved "full immunity" with our vaccines we have been venturing out again. Yesterday, my wife and I went looking for a new car, just to find that the dealers have very limited stock. We went to one place that advertised a vehicle that had not even arrived at their lot and would not for a week or so. (We drove 2 1/2 hours to test drive it) To me, this is a deceptive practice and I doubt I will ever return to that dealer. Most of the salespeople we saw followed the covid rules but one who worked at a Ford Dealership really irritated me. He wore the mask when we were greeted but when we got back from the test drive I realized he had pulled his mask below his nose. Meaning he was putting us at great risk inside that car. Had I seen him do it I would have said something. Even though we have been vaccinated, and we have waited the 14 days as suggested. we can still get the virus. And the Oregon county where this man worked has been hit pretty hard. Some people just do not seem to get the message. They think they can do things any way they want and there will be no consequences. I suppose if we get into the car with another salesperson, I need to lay down the guidelines and demand they follow them. Sad, in a sales position, you must treat your customer with respect, and in this world and in this environment, ( a raging pandemic) that means following the rules when you are with a prospective client. For him, the sad thing is, my wife liked the car. That's sad because due to his behavior, we will not buy it from him, or his dealership. Photo is mine.
