    The dealer’s house I used to buy from had a covid policy sign on the front and they’d ban you from their house if you broke it. I saw a few people get told to fuck off who didn’t have masks on.

    Loved that lady, utter legend, the only dealer I knew that had proper customer service skills.

        Yeah she was a legend, she actually cared about her customers, I had someone try and make me buy them a bag from her, I walked in and told her what happened and she stormed out abusing them for harrassing her customers, no one fucked with her. I was kinda sad when I get onto the medical cannabis because it meant I wouldn’t see her again.

      I bought my PS4 at the very beginning of Covid, specifically because I was anticipating quarantining and I figured if the PS5 had just dropped, it was the right time to look for used PS4s.

      I got mad “lucky” with my PS4. Got it for $30 from the Facebook marketplace. Dude was honest and said it has a bad power supply and they were only $18. Low and behold he was right. Just wish he told me about the roach infestation it had.

        There are many similar stories on second hand items from Craigslist and marketplace out there. Thankfully I’ve never been “lucky” enough to have that privilege, and I use them quite frequently.

    Got a job driving a truck and highways were empty. Receivers of shipments ignored me and I still got paid. Shit went south but it was sweet for a bit.

    I did the same thing I always did, stay home and be a goblin. Still got covid because my twin works with the unwashed masses though.
